Release Blitz - CODE NAME: ARIES by Janie Crouch

Code Name: Aries by Janie Crouch is now live!

My code name is Aries. The stars say I'm aggressive, dominant, first in line to lead.

The stars aren't wrong.

Zodiac Tactical is my company. It's run by those I've chosen for their skills and ability to outmaneuver adversaries. We guard, protect, rescue...assist on the side of the angels.

We eliminate the threat when nobody else can.

My pastime of putting bad guys out of business has created powerful enemies, but I've always made sure there was nothing in my life I couldn't live without.

Until now. Until her.

She's not a warrior, she's an artist. She sees colors everywhere and greets the world—and me—with a smile. I knew I shouldn't come near her from the beginning, but she's everything I've never been able to be.

And now a monster has taken her, caged her, to get even with me.

My code name is Aries. And I will burn the world to the ground to get her back.

Release Date: September 20

Black sheep. Rebel. Bad boy.

I've been called that and worse. Even deserved it a time or two.

I'm not all bad—just misunderstood. Cut from a different cloth. My family doesn’t get what makes me tick and I’m tired of trying to make them see.

So, I'm getting the hell out. Out of this small-town way of life, and out of this family. Bags packed. One way ticket purchased. There's only one problem.

Her.

Or if you want to be specific, the baby she's carrying.

She swears it's mine. With any other woman I'd laugh her right out the door.

The trouble is, I think this one is telling the truth.

How high does the pressure get inside the friend zone? This goalkeeper is about to find out...

Moving to America forced Liam Daley to leave almost everything behind in Ireland - his family, his team, and his dreams about what might have been. Now on a mission to prove that he's more than second string as a member of the Atlanta Rising Football Club, there's only one thing distracting him: the team's charming and quirky physical therapist, who just happens to be crushing on the hotshot rookie Dash Lazaro.

Avery Houghton is living her dream working for the Atlanta Rising. In fact, life would be perfect if she could just score a date with her dream guy. But overcoming her natural awkwardness is unlikely, and her insecurities aren't doing her any favors either. She's desperate for help, and who better to teach her how to attract a football star than another football star?

As Avery's reluctant partner in crime, Liam hopes to show her that she doesn't need to change for any man. But simply telling Avery how he really feels seems impossible. While Avery gets closer to everything she thinks she wants, Liam starts to feel the pressure. Will he be forced to pass when he's finally ready to make a play for her heart?

A sexy, single-dad romance standalone

Don't sleep with the nanny.

That should be a simple rule to follow, but some things are easier said than done.
Especially when the nanny I hire to take care of my wild child daughter turns out to be the one I can't forget.

The woman I shared a red-hot anonymous kiss with a few weeks ago when we were trapped in an elevator? Yeah, seems she's one and the same--sweet, sexy, irresistible Daisy.
When she shows up in town, fresh-faced and ready to care for my kid, it hits me like a kick from a stubborn mare. I'm in way over my head.

I've been fantasizing about seeing my elevator woman again. And now I'm seeing her every damn day at the breakfast table, or at the playground with my adorable daughter.
Daisy is exactly what my little girl needs.

But every day I spend with Daisy makes me want her more, only I can't have her.

I won't risk breaking the unbreakable rule to take a chance at love.

Until the night I do.

Harper Davenport is widowed, homeless, and nearly broken.

So, in a moment of bravery—or possibly stupidity—she moves her and her six-year-old son, Greyson, back to the only place that has ever felt like home.

Too bad starting over is exactly as hard as she feared it would be.

The last thing she needs is for Kade Dawson to be her new boss. The man is talented, handsome, and ridiculously magnetic. He draws people in with his looks and hooks them with his personality. Harper is no exception, but she has more than herself to consider.

Kade’s reputation is well earned, but lately, he’s been craving something more.

As soon as Harper walks into his life, he’s captivated. Only…things are complicated.

Despite his desperate attempts to keep things platonic between them, Harper still manages to become the best part of his day.

He just doesn’t know if he can be the man she and Greyson deserve.

Sometimes, falling back into old patterns is easier than taking a chance on something he knows will change everything.

If Kade and Harper can manage to let go of the past, they might just be able to have a future they’ve both only ever dreamed of.

Author: Freya Barker Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: September 14, 2021

Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC.

Freelance journalist and single mom, Katrina (Trin) Paige, has recently returned to her hometown to help her sister care for their elderly father. They’ve barely settled back into Durango’s daily life when her rebellious teenage son gets himself in tumultuous waters. While being rescued by the local fire department, he unwittingly uncovers a decades-old crime hidden underneath the churning rapids of the Animas River.

Once Trin’s life is back on an even keel, her sharp nose for a compelling story starts twitching and she dives headfirst into an investigation of her own. The more she uncovers, the closer she gets to the firefighter who not only pulled her son from the river, but who also seems present everywhere she turns.

Bodhi (Roadkill) Jones doesn’t believe in things like fate, although, he can’t deny the way his life seems to be entwined with the spunky redhead is more than mere coincidence. In fact, he’s been wondering how it is possible she escaped his attention growing up in the same town, even though she is a few years older. Swept up in an unfamiliar current, he finds himself looking for ways to spend time with her and her family.

However, when a murder investigation touches his personal life, it invades Trin’s as well, leaving him scrambling to make sure the woman he’s fast falling for is protected.

5 Stars

Freya Barker and the On Call Series just keep getting better and better. As one of my one click authors I love her feeling of family and community in her series, the way she brings us little bits of friends we love from other books and weaves them all together. I love that she brings us characters that have to grow and evolve to be open to the relationships they might not have been looking for just like Trin who was focused on the task at hand and being a mom.

Trin has been a single mom, running the show for the last 14 years and it is hard to let go of the reigns from time to time. Hard to let people give you a hand when you might need an extra pair. When she moved back to her home town, into her childhood home where she all but turned mom at 10 when she lost hers to help her sister in caring for their elderly father. She wasn't looking for the friendship or relationship that she finds building between her and the hot firefighter.

Bodhi has watched his peers at the fire hall slowly find themselves in relationship and moving to the next stage of their lives. Does he want that some day, sure he does, but he just has found the right woman. When she walks through the station doors when is he there along, looking for help to find her father, he can't resist to jump in. When he later learns she is a fellow firefighters sister, he is quick to get to know the colleague a little more. Stepping to help them where he can and be there for Trin and her teen son Tucker.

Ms Barker never shy's from the tough subjects and find a way to weave the understanding of dementia and bi-racial prejudice into a web along with the suspense of found items in the Animas River. Grab that favorite reading spot and get ready for a wonderful adventure.
