I‘m Knox Sterling. Self-made billionaire. Playboy.
My whole life, I’ve chased women, thrills, and anything that keeps things uncomplicated.
Commitment? Not my style.
Except for Amy. My best friend is the only woman who’s ever been completely off-limits. She’s the one person who’s kept me grounded since the days when my bank account barely covered rent.

The one woman I’ve secretly wanted for years… but never touched.
But after a minor car crash reminds me how quickly life can change, waiting suddenly feels like the worst mistake.
So when Amy asks me to chaperone a school field trip and inspire her students with stories from my career, I say yes without hesitation. Any excuse to spend more time with her.
But the trip doesn’t go as planned. A freak accident leaves us stranded in a small town overnight.
Just the two of us.
One hotel room.
Years of tension finally snapping.
One reckless kiss turns into an unforgettable night.
Falling for my best friend might be the most dangerous move I’ve ever made…
But once I have her in my bed, there’s no way I’m letting her walk away.




4 Stars

We are back to the world of the Sterling Brothers and it's Knox's turn to learn that letting a woman in and falling in love can be so much better than his playboy ways. A sweet friend to lovers story as Knox reconnects with his college friend Amy. Their is lots of emotions in this one.

The attraction was always there with Knox and Amy but they made it pretty clear in the beginning that they were looking for different things. She wanted the marriage, house and three kids. Knox was determined that he didn't want any of that. In the sake of keeping a solid friendship they never crossed the line. Now all these years later, seeing her for the first time in a year, Knox is having some troubles keeping his thoughts aligned.

Will they cross the line and see if there could be something more? Will their fears get in the way of something that could be wonderful? Has another Sterling man found his perfect match?

Grab your copy and find out. I am patiently waiting over here for Sinful Kisses and Finn's story.

Audio review, the narrators did a wonderful job of bringing the story and characters to life. Giving the listener a full view of the emotions as the story unfolds.

Camden

The day she left town was the day I changed. Maren Holm walked away without so much as a glance back, taking my heart with her. Everything we had talked about, planned for, the life I thought we both wanted together, just vanished, leaving me alone and miserable. That’s when old Camden was replaced with the fun-loving, carefree guy I am today.

Then, out of the blue, she returned.

My new next-door neighbor and I have a past, and it’s one I don’t want to dredge up. The problem is she has a son. The cutest three-year-old boy, who pulls at the strings of my damaged heart and refuses to let go. Together, they make me want…more.

But I just don’t know if I’m capable of giving her my heart a second time.

Maren

Returning to Cooper Town was exactly what I needed. I wanted my son, Theo, to experience all the perks of small-town living. With the help of my dad, I found the perfect location to start over. Except, my new neighbor and I have a history. A very painful one, and even though I knew I’d likely run into him again, I never expected it to be in my own driveway.

Suddenly, my past is standing directly in front of me again.

He’s still angry, not that I blame him. I walked away from him, from the life we both wanted. It wasn’t easy or right, but I had my reasons. Now, being around him is stirring up old feelings, especially when I see him with my son. Their bond is instant, and before I know it, I’m being drawn right back in to the Camden I used to know and love.

Only this time, it’s not just my heart I’m risking, but Theo’s too.

SACKED
Aleatha Romig

Release Date: July 27

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED



“Power, legacy, secrets, and emotional warfare… I ate it UP.” —Review

Second chance romance. Football dynasty. High-stakes betrayal.

My life, my career, my future—was built on the Hubbards’ legacy: honor, heritage, tradition.
Or so I believed.

Now it’s all falling apart.

The Coopers aren’t just a football team.
They’re power, secrets, and emotional warfare.

Under the bright lights of Crystal Light Stadium, the real game is finally clear.

This isn’t just about the Super Bowl—
It’s about protecting my family’s dynasty at any cost.

And this is when he walks back into my life.

The man from my past.
My biggest regret… and my greatest weakness.

He wants a second chance.
A place beside me in a game ruled by loyalty, lies, and betrayal.

But in this world, trust is a risk.
And desire is a liability.

Because what we share…
It’s explosive. Dangerous. Impossible to ignore.

And it might be the one thing that brings everything crashing down.

Because football isn’t just a game.

It’s power. It’s legacy. It’s survival.
And I’ll stop at nothing to keep it alive.

Have you been Aleatha’d?

From New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes a steamy, addictive football romance packed with power plays, betrayal, and jaw-dropping twists.

SACKED is Book 3 in The Coopers series, ends on a cliffhanger, and must be read in order: INTERCEPTED → RUSHED → SACKED → SCORED.

I’m the irresistible one. The man who always gets what he wants. Too bad the only woman I want is the one I can’t have.

Dating apps can’t touch the dark and uninhibited desires I keep hidden. For the kind of kink I crave, I go to Lush—a playground where fantasies become reality.
That’s where I meet her.
The breathtaking blonde in the crimson dress who steals the air from my lungs, becoming an instant fixation after just one night.
Daring.
Uninhibited.
Captivating.
One taste will never be enough.
And when we meet again, it’s the worst possible scenario …
The sexy bombshell who ruined me for anyone else is now the one person who is completely out of my reach.
Off-limits.
Untouchable.
Forbidden.
The absolute enemy of everything I stand for.
But when scorching chemistry, razor-sharp banter, and an undeniable attraction collide, staying away from her is no longer an option.

What happens when the woman I can’t have becomes the only one I can’t resist?

Their rivalry turns into undeniable chemistry, and a secret relationship neither can afford.
As the youngest son in the Bradford football dynasty, I’ve spent my whole life being compared to someone else. The last thing I need is an influencer building her platform on my mistakes.

Then I kiss her.
Again.
And Again.
Now we’re hiding a secret relationship that could destroy both our careers, and I’m falling for the one woman who refuses to go easy on me.

FALLING FOR YOU
Natasha Madison

Release Date: July 14



USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison turns up the heat when a night of passion brings together a man who was never looking for love and a woman who thinks she doesn’t deserve it.

Theo Williams loved and lost once and isn’t interested in doing it again. He has his family and friends, and plenty of women passing through his new hometown who are happy with a no-strings-attached night of passion. Working as a partner at his cousin’s construction company, he’s perfectly content with his life—until he meets Collins Henderson, the one-night stand who will change his world forever.

Collins grew up on the wrong side of her small hometown. Thanks to her parents’ shady schemes, every local knows a Henderson cannot be trusted. She works hard as a paramedic, putting in every extra hour she can to save for a better life. But every time she starts to get ahead, her parents show up to pull her back down. Having one night of passion with a man she doesn’t know is not something she’d normally do, but there was just something about him … And two months later, she finds herself unexpectedly pregnant.

When she runs into the mysterious stranger again, she has to tell him, not because she needs or wants anything from him, just so he knows. But now he’s showing up at her house, cooking her meals, stocking her refrigerator, and doing everything he can for her. Collins has always taken care of herself. She wasn’t looking for a relationship, but she can’t deny the chemistry between them.

She knows it’s only a matter of time before he learns who she is and changes his mind. She can’t let herself fall for this guy, but every day he’s getting harder to resist …

*** Advanced copy provided in exchange for an honest review. ***


When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

4 Stars

Leave it to me to try a new author part way through the series. I was easily able to read this book without being lost but I do have some need to know questions, so yes I will be going back and starting the series.

Luke's time in the Military as Delta Ops has given him skills not everyone has. But "Roit" was not given to him lightly as he seems to always be smack dab in the middle of things, good or bad. But his found family he will protect with every breathe he has.

Deputy Sheriff Harley Garrett is all about following the rules. Kinda hard not to when you grow up as the Sheriff's daughter. But sometimes you are drawn to things you just leave alone. She knows she already stepped out of line before and there is a draw to Luke, she just and deny.

The chemistry between these characters jumps off the pages make it all hot & steamy. The banter back and forth, the open want, the push back with sass all kept the pages moving. I was drawn in from the beginning. The level of suspense and need to know who was doing what drove me to the end. And what an end it was.

Grab your copy and enjoy the ride.



I didn’t learn romance from fairy tales. I learned it from silence that said too much, from almost-touches, from the slow burn of wanting something you’re not supposed to have.

That’s what I write: stories built from quiet tension, late-night confessions, and the kind of choices that feel dangerous even when they’re inevitable. The men I write carry shadows; the women don’t run from them—they step closer.

Because the most dangerous kind of love isn’t the one that’s loud.

It’s the one you know you shouldn’t want… and choose anyway.
