Release Blitz & Review - CHECKING IT TWICE by Kendall Ryan

Fake dating a hockey player for Christmas wasn’t on my bingo card.

Clare Johnson’s job is handling PR for the Dallas Stampede—not getting tangled up with one of the players. But when Mitchell Drake—charming forward, fan favorite, and very off-limits—asks her to pose as his girlfriend for one week in small-town Minnesota, she reluctantly agrees. What’s the worst that could happen?

Mitchell’s had six months to get over his very public broken engagement, and his family is done waiting. The last thing he needs is pitying smiles and whispered gossip. Clare is smart, sharp, and strong enough to hold her own with both fans and family—the perfect fake girlfriend.

But holiday lights and snowy nights have a way of blurring the line between pretend and real. Clare fits too easily into his world—bonding with his grandma, winning at pond hockey, and looking unfairly good in his flannel. The more time they spend together, the less fake it feels.

Full of small-town holiday magic, meddling relatives, and sizzling chemistry, Checking It Twice is a hockey romance about second chances and falling in love when you least expect it. Perfect for fans of fake dating, one-bed tension, forced proximity, and happily-ever-afters wrapped in Christmas lights.

Because sometimes the best gifts aren’t under the tree—they’re standing right in front of you.

He lives by a set of rules. She might be his one exception.

I just wanted a distraction, something to take the edge off before facing a wedding I was dreading. So on the flight back to New York, I signed up for a dating app. Harmless enough, right?

Wrong.

Turns out, it wasn’t just any app—it catered to people with very specific tastes. By the time I realized it, I was already on my date.

Tall, confident, and sinfully handsome, Jagger Langston seemed like the full package. The chemistry between us was instant—electric enough to burn the whole city down. Though things took a turn when we figured out I’d misunderstood who should join the app. We laughed it off, said goodbye, and went our separate ways.

Or so I thought.

Until I walked into my new internship Monday morning, ready to put the weekend behind me, and there he was—my boss.

Now I’m caught between the rules he lives by—and the temptation to make him break every single one of them.

HERO UNEXPECTED

Kait Nolan

Release Date: November 14

I rebuilt my grandmother’s bakery from the ground up. Poured everything I had into making it thrive again—flour, sweat, and a whole lot of tears.

Then she died. And her will blindsided me.

If I’m not married by the time probate closes, I lose the bakery to my mother—the last person who should ever be trusted with it.

Enter Bodie Gibson.

Childhood friend turned enemy. The boy who used to bring me tea and peanut butter sandwiches…

The cop who put my little brother behind bars.

He offers me a way out: a fake marriage that keeps the bakery in my hands and our past buried where it belongs.

It’s just paperwork. A few public appearances. Nothing real.

Except he still looks at me like he sees the girl I used to be.

And when he kisses me it doesn’t feel fake at all.

In a town built on second chances, sometimes the only way forward is to rewrite the ending.

Release Blitz - WILDFLOWER AND WHISKEY by R.C. Stephens

Wildflower and Whiskey by R.C. Stephens is now live!

Phoenix Thorne was the last man I wanted to see when I came back to Val-Du-Lys with my son.

But fate has a cruel sense of humor.

Now I'm working in his brewery... and sleeping in the loft above his garage.

He hasn't changed.

Sharp edges. Hard muscles. Walls no one could scale.

And he still looks at me like I'm the wildflower that cut him all those years ago.

We were enemies once.

Now we're neighbors.

Every stolen glance, every brush of his hand pulls us closer to a line we swore we'd never cross.

Then he kisses me.

Hard. Hungry. Reckless.

The kind of kiss that burns hotter than whiskey and leaves me aching for more.

He vowed he'd never forgive me.

I swore I'd never need him.

But the past has a way of catching up. Secrets that don't stay buried. Threats that circle too close to the people I love.

And suddenly the man I betrayed is the only one standing between me and a storm I never saw coming.

Because once Phoenix claims me... he'll fight like hell to keep me.

Release Blitz & Review - THIS HEART by Kelly Elliott

This Heart by Kelly Elliott is now live!

Liam

The heart is fickle. One day, you love something or someone, and then the next, they destroy you with their lies, and that love disappears.

I'm over the lies and the deceit. So, I tell my wife I want a divorce, only to find out she's fighting for her life, against a disease that doesn't like to lose. What kind of man would I be if I went through with ending our marriage knowing she's sick?

So, I stay. I raise our daughter, and I'm there to help her when she needs me. Her best friend, Aurora, is there too, which becomes a problem because Aurora is everything my ex isn't, and with each passing day, I fall harder for her, and my guilt for those feelings grows.

Aurora

When Hope told me about her diagnosis, I wanted to do anything I could to help her through this. I vowed to be there for her, to help in any way I could.

I jumped in to help with Winnie and picked up the slack where Liam couldn't. With each day, we watched her condition worsen. I spent more time with them, mostly Liam and me, and in time, we grew to be good friends. After we lost Hope to her illness, the friendship I thought I had found in Liam was destroyed when he pushed me away with words that cut to the core.

When Liam reaches out to heal the wound between us, we begin to grow close again, and I can admit to myself that my feelings for Liam go far beyond simple friendship. When Liam shares the biggest secret of his life with me, and the truth about his relationship with Hope comes to life, everything changes between us. His guilt will not let him fully move on with his life.

How can I convince him that if he'd let me, I'd love him and his daughter for eternity? I'd give him this heart with no regrets.

This Heart is book four, and the last book in the Moose Village series.

Devoured by Eden by Jade May is now live!

Fifteen hours to fall in love. One second to lose it all.

On the first day of my medical internship, I expected pressure. Maybe even chaos. I didn’t expect him—Dr. Zachery Bennett, my most regular client at Eden—to be standing in the ER as the head of the department.

Over one explosive, unrelenting shift, the line between who we are inside the hospital and who we pretend to be in the gentlemen’s club, Eden, begins to blur. I fall—harder than I ever meant to.

But when a broken heart begins a deadly rampage in triage, I’m forced to confront the truth I’ve been avoiding:

My body is failing.

My feelings are real.

And the man I was never supposed to love might be the only one who can save me.

We may not survive the next hour.

But if we do, neither of us is walking away.

Devoured by Eden is the third book in the Eden series of interconnected standalones. This is a spicy, dual timeline, age gap, medical romantic suspense, with a chronically ill FMC, a full HEA, and no cliffhangers.

ONLY EVER YOU

J.H Croix

Release Date: November 3

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

A swoony & emotional small town firefighter romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

Meet cute gone wrong… or Maybe just right?

Take One: I met Parker Reeves when I was seventeen. We shared a few unforgettable hours, but I told so many lies he doesn’t recognize me the next time we meet.

Take Two: A decade later, I’m the definition of a hot mess—soaking wet, stranded, and pulled from the ocean by none other than Parker. He’s all rugged hero, firefighter instincts on full blast, and the kind of grumpy that’s unfairly attractive.

The list of reasons why falling for him is a bad bet for me is longer than a country mile. My baggage could fill a firehouse, and his growl is almost as fierce as his protective streak. But when I’m with him? For the first time, I feel safe. And that’s all I’ve ever wanted.

*A full-length, standalone romance.
