Release Blitz & Review - THE WAY WE SCORE by Tia Louise


The Way We Score by Tia Louise is now live!



We promised our love was forever. A decade later, two little blue lines might settle the score.

You've heard of those kids who peak in high school?
Meet my love life.
Garrett Bradford was mine from the moment we saw each other in ninth grade.
Even then, he was a six-foot-four mountain of muscles with bright blue eyes, a wide grin, and a way with his hands.
He was the high school football star, and I was the dance team captain.
We were the storybook cliché... until we weren't.

Now he's the most famous offensive lineman in the league, and I'm a buttoned-up, ultra-professional lawyer.
My dancing days are over, and my carefully controlled life is a mess.
Infertility killed my marriage, or that's what I told myself. Infertility and a cheating ex.
And my inability to get over Garrett Bradford.

One reckless night at his little sister's wedding is only supposed to be a reunion, a trip down memory lane to a time when life was happier.
Six weeks later, I'm staring at a positive pregnancy test wondering, How did this happen?

I figure I'm on my own until Garrett overhauls his life, moves back to our small town, and shows up every day to massage my feet, hold my hair when I barf, and go with me to all my doctor's appointments.

Our situation has an end date, just like it did so many years ago.
Unless this little score changes the game and gives us the second chance I thought we'd lost.

4 Stars

This was a fun book to read that had me hooked from the first chapter right to the end.  Garrett and Liv had history, a boat load of history and this is the second chance done a little backwards. But the chemistry, witty banter and of course the Bradford family dynamics just adds to the story.

I love that Garrett was all in from the minute they started interacting again after all these years. But he was determined to let her know that he was a better person than before. It wasn't all about him and his dreams. Swoony!!!

Was it easy every step of the way, absolutely not. Was it worth fighting for, absolutely.

Grab your copy and enjoy the ride as they navigate from the old couple the were, through the hard stuff of when they were apart, to the learn each other and finding they new life.

Cover Reveal - SINGLE MOM'S GUIDE TO LOVE by Chelle Sloan



Chelle Sloan has revealed the cover for Single Mom's Guide to Love!

Releasing: February 6, 2025
Cover Designer: Chelsea Kemp


GUIDE TO LOVE RULE #50: Love isn't always convenient. Sometimes marriage is.

My name is Maeve Banks—Type A single mom; oldest daughter; and renowned interior designer for millionaire bachelors.

And the new Mrs. Logan Matthews.

The latter title is not something I wanted, but something I was forced to do. And for good reason: My adorable six-year old son.

The guide for my perfectly controlled life was simple: No dating or distractions. Focus on my son and my business.

Everything was going to plan until the night Logan Matthews—one of the world's youngest, and most eligible billionaires—sits down next to me at an airport bar.

He distracted me with his perfect smile and chiseled jaw line. His British accent didn’t hurt either.

When he asked me to dance? I was a goner.

But it was one night. No harm in a little fun, right?

Wrong.

Turns out my one-night of fun is now my newest client.

Which is fine. I'm an adult. I can resist his charm. And that he's great with my son. Or when he calls me "love.”

But as much as both of us make it look like we have our lives in order, they're anything but.

So Logan offers me a proposal—the one where we get married as a temporary fix to both our problems.

My ex-husband is fighting for custody of my son. And Logan needs a wife to give the media something to talk about.

It's a marriage of convenience. Nothing more, nothing less.

There's just one problem: I think I'm falling in love with my husband.

And there's no guide to love for that.

Release Blitz - LOVE ME FEARLESS by Dakota Davies


Love Me Fearless by Dakota Davies is now live!



From USA Today bestselling author Dakota Davies comes an all new small town suspense romance about a broken military hero and the soft-hearted girl he’ll burn the world down to save.

She’s my best friend, the one that got away, and now, a temptation I can't afford.

Six years ago, I spent the night with my best friend. Maybe it was the pretty wedding we'd attended together and the champagne, or maybe it was how she looked at me that night, like I mattered.

Or maybe it’s that I’ve been in love with Ava Greely for longer than I care to admit.

When she ran the next morning, begging me to forget the best night of my life, I did what I always do, stuffed my broken heart back where it belongs and returned to duty.

Thanks to a family emergency that calls me back to Finn River, my path and Ava’s collide once more. We try to avoid each other, but the sparks between us have only intensified with time, and in one powerful moment, they catch fire.

But Finn River is hiding secrets that threaten to tear us apart. Someone’s been watching us, and they don’t like what they see.

When the threat closes in on Ava, can I piece the clues together in time to save her?

Author's note: A military hero secretly falling for the pediatrician making her small town a better place one fix at a time. Add in a boisterous found family, plenty of mountain town shenanigans, forbidden heat, page-turning suspense, and a heartwarming HEA.

Love Me Fearless is a standalone small town contemporary romance novel and book 3 in the unforgettable Love Me Dangerous series.

Release Blitz - INDISCRETION by Vi Keeland

 



Title: Indiscretion
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 13, 2025


He's her boss. She's his greatest temptation.

The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed.
The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there.
When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder.
Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all.
Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking.
We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about. He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described. Though she was also right when she’d said you two will hate each other.
When daylight rolled around, Dawson and I attempted to straighten out the mess we found ourselves in. But it proved to be more difficult than we initially thought. Since it was a holiday weekend, there wasn’t a single room available for more than fifty miles.
I suppose things could be worse than sharing a cabin for a weekend with a handsome man you despise.
Like maybe him winding up being your new boss?

Release Blitz & Review - WHEN WE DARE by J.H. Croix


WHEN WE DARE
J.H Croix

Release Date: January 13



A brand new, swoony small town firefighter series from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

What could go wrong when my brother’s best friend becomes my roommate?
I’m about to find out.

When I met Hudson Fox, I drove over his crutches. Way to go, girl. My hormones think this hotshot firefighter is all that and then some.

My hormones have a terrible track record. They are cheering for Hudson, but my brain knows better. I’m a smart woman with plans and none of them involve romance.

Until I move into my new place and Hudson is my roommate. Complete with Butter, his cat.

Hudson isn’t just easy on the eyes, he’s everything I didn’t know I wanted, including a little grumpy with a protective streak bigger than Alaska. We both have our reasons for avoiding romance, but when he proposes a with benefits arrangement, I can’t even think over the sound of my hormones screaming for joy.

When my messy past catches up to me and I discover Hudson is my brother’s best friend, well, things get even messier. Hudson is keeping his own secrets. I tell myself it doesn’t matter. Until my heart wants more.

Hudson & Stella’s story is perfect for readers who love: protective firefighters, slow burn, roommates, brother’s best friend, messy secrets, chemistry on the rampage, small town shenanigans, emotional romance with a dash of angst, oodles of swoon, and a cinnamon roll hero who will protect the woman he loves with everything he has.

*A full-length, standalone romance.

Excerpt Reveal - INDISCRETION by Vi Keeland

 



Title: Indiscretion
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 13, 2025


Take a sneak peek at INDISCRETION.
You know you want to...

"What the fu¢k!”
I jumped out of bed, reaching for my right eye.
A dog barked and a woman’s high-pitched voice screeched, “I have a gun!”
Quickly forgetting the pain radiating from my face, I held my hands up. “You don’t need a gun. I’m not armed, and I’m not going to hurt you. I’m holding my hands in the air.”
A light suddenly flicked on, and I found a five-foot-nothing woman wearing hot pink lacy pajamas, holding a dog that couldn’t weigh more than five pounds. The runt was in one hand while she pointed something at me with the other.
Is that…a pair of readers? My brows knitted. “Is that your gun?”
She waved the glasses around. “I’m a green belt, too!”
My eyes widened. “What is that, like two up from white? Did you take three lessons?”
The blonde’s eyes narrowed. “Leonardo bites.”
As if on cue, the dog growled and showed me his gums. But that was all he seemed to have in his mouth. I pointed. “Does that thing even have teeth?”
The woman scowled. “Shut up. He has a few, and periodontal disease is prevalent in chihuahuas. What do you want from me, and why are you wearing only a towel?”
“Uhh… Because I just showered. And what I want is a good damn night’s sleep, for starters. What the hell are you doing here? I rented this place.”
You rented this place? I don’t think so. I rented this cabin.”
All of a sudden, the bone beneath my eye started to throb. I reached up and felt the top of my right cheek. “What the hell did you hit me with?”
She dropped the glasses on the bed and flexed her hand open and shut. It looked as red and swollen as my face felt. “Oww. My knuckles really hurt.”
What the fuck is going on here? “You must be in the wrong cabin, lady. How did you get in?”
She pressed on her right hand and winced. “I have the code.”

Release Blitz & Review - DEVOTED ENOUGH by Kelly Elliott



Devoted Enough by Kelly Elliott is now live!



Nathan Shaw has been keeping a secret since high school. It was so tightly intertwined with someone else's that exposing the darkest facts meant he couldn't keep the other to himself.

Haven Larson has had an awful childhood growing up with an abusive father and a mother who tries her best, but sometimes the best can't protect you from the monsters that hide in darkness.

One night, protecting her from those monsters, fell on the one boy she had loved for as long as she could remember. And now she knows that he can't stand to be around her after discovering her secrets--or can he, because every time they are together, the sparks ignite and threaten to combust.

But it will take their darkest secrets being exposed in order for their feelings to come to light.
