Release Blitz & Review - ON THE BRINK OF BLISS by A.L. Jackson

On the Brink of Bliss by A.L. Jackson is now live!

A sizzling single mom, fake marriage, heroine in danger romance from New York Times & USA Today Bestselling author, A.L. Jackson

The last thing I expected when I found the trespasser bathing in my river was for it to be her…

Daisy Adair has always been my dream girl. From when we were best friends in high school to finding her now.

A gorgeous mother who shows up on my property with three kids in tow.

But I became a recluse for a reason.

The life I chose is full of wickedness and peril. The last thing I need is the object of my every fantasy invading my space and risking her life because of me.

Only when she tells me she’s on the run from her ex, I promise to do anything to keep them safe, even marry her to protect her kids.

That single kiss at the altar rips through every barrier, our passion unleashed.

Now, living under the same roof blurs the lines I’ve drawn.

Each glance of her down the hall and I am splintering.

Each brush of her hand and I am brought to my knees.

Our future—bright, hopeful, and almost within reach—hovers on the edge of becoming real…

Until we discover the threat surrounding her is grimmer than either of us imagined.

Now I’m fighting to save her and her children before our second chance at forever is burned to the ground…

I knew that Cash's story would be worth the wait. I was pulled in quickly as Cash discovers his high school best friend on his property with her 3 cute kiddos. Looking for him and needing his help.

Our recluse has spent too many years convincing himself he was worthy. So tainted that he would just darken anyone's door and bring harm to them. No matter how hard he fought to keep Daisy at arms length she kept slipping under his radar. And those kids... he never stood a chance.

That Daisy could leave a relationship with so many lies and to be scared for her life. To find herself with another man who thinks he is dangerous also, seem like too much. But she knew the man he had closed off so far down. She just had to coax him back out.

Grab your copy and enjoy the beauty that comes out of this story. It is a rollercoaster of a ride but work every twist and turn.

Release Blitz & Review - GUILTY SILENCE by Freya Barker

 

Title: Guilty Silence (Silencer Series, #3) 
Author: Freya Barker 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 
Release Date: February 9, 2026 
Tropes: Later in Life | Friends to Lover | Unrequited Love | Secret Past | Single Father | Multi-Racial | Heroine in Peril | Age Gap 
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC. 

Bess Choi is proud of what she’s accomplished. Owner of Strange Brew, a popular coffee shop in Silence, she’s worked hard and has overcome many obstacles to build the life she has. It’s a good life, one that includes work she loves, an apartment to call her own, and plenty of good friends.

But an unexpected phone call comes as a brutal reminder of a time she thought she’d left far behind. Suddenly, she’s faced with the choice to turn her back on the beautiful life she created, or break her guilty silence.

Chief Deputy Hugo Alexander isn’t sure when exactly he started seeing the quiet coffee shop owner as more than simply a good friend. It’s hard to pinpoint the moment when she went from a supportive friend to him and his teenage son, to the woman who features in his dreams and fantasies.

Unfortunately, Bess Choi seems to have him firmly locked in the friend zone, and it’s not until worrisome things start happening around her, she cautiously starts lowering the barriers.

But when he discovers she might be in far more danger than she’s been willing to let on, he’s done tiptoeing around.

Cover Reveal - CROOKED by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

 

Title: Crooked

Authors: Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance

Cover Design: Sommer Stein, Perfect Pear Creative

Photographer: Michelle Lancaster, @lanefotograf

Model: Andrew Murray

Release Date: March 29, 2026

A new, sexy standalone novel from New York Times Bestsellers, Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward…

 

The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a walking bad decision.

 

But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss, apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new bodyguard. 

 

Wes knew exactly how to push my buttons. He was also infuriatingly protective. And smart. And funny. And thoughtful when he thought I wasn’t paying attention.  Little by little, the walls I’d built started to crack, and falling for the bodyguard became the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done. Because if my father found out, Wes wouldn’t just lose his job. He’d lose his life. 

 

Getting involved with him was reckless, yet I couldn’t find a way to stop it, no matter how hard I tried.  But while I was busy losing my heart, the man who took it was hiding a secret. 

And it turned out, the most dangerous man in my life wasn’t my father after all—it was the one who threatened to break my heart.

INTERCEPTED

Aleatha Romig

Release Date: February 2

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

In The Coopers, family power meets forbidden passion, and one wrong move can cost you the team… or your heart. Perfect for fans of the ruthless tension of Succession and the dark, aching obsession of Wuthering Heights.

At thirty-six, Fin Graham is a legend, a veteran quarterback, dangerously handsome, and built to win. The field. The season. Me.

I never thought I’d see him again, not after he disappeared and shattered me without a word. But now he’s been traded onto my family’s team, the Lexington Coopers—my turf, my legacy, and the one place I swore he’d never touch.

No one knows our past.

No one knows how hard I loved him… or how deep the betrayal cut.

And if I have any sway with the team’s owner—my father—Fin’s contract will be the shortest in franchise history.

But the problem with old heartbreaks?

They remember how to start beating again.

Fin wants a second chance.

I want revenge… or maybe I just want him.

And the time clock is almost out.

With the future of the Lexington Coopers on the line, we have to decide if we’re working together or against one another.

From the bestselling author of Infidelity and Sin comes a scorching, high-stakes romantic suspense series set in the seductive, cutthroat world of the NFL. The Coopers is a four-book saga following one explosive couple. INTERCEPTED ends on a cliffhanger—an unforgettable Aleatha blindside.

5 Stars

What a fantastic start to a new series that pulled me in and didn't let go until the very end, even then I was not ready for it to end. I am in desperate need for more of the Cooper's and find out what is going to happen next.

We have strong lead characters that you can certainly get behind in Vee & Fin. A wide array of secondary characters that play pivotal roles. I love the depth of the business and football added to the romance, hurts and misunderstandings of the past.

The chemistry between Vee & Fin is so well written is sizzles off the pages, even when they are working through the past, finding their way to the now. 

Grab your copy and willingly get yourself Aleatha'd.

Release Blitz & Review - STERLING STONE by L.B. Dunbar

STERLING STONE

L.B. Dunbar

Release Date: January 29

This small town *could* be big enough for both of them . . .

Quiet. Serious. Protective. All words Stone Sylver would use to describe himself. And yet, something in his classic blue eyes said he was so much more. Buried beneath the years of raising his younger siblings and being a small town sheriff was a man looking for love.

Of course, I didn’t get all that the first night we met. The night we did a one-two step in a hotel hallway and knocked heads. The same night we shared a sweet potato cupcake and a single kiss.

Why didn’t we share more? The moment became a great mystery to me and because I thought he was only a brief interlude in my wanderlust life, I wasn’t prepared to see him again in Sterling Falls.

Visiting the small town where I once lived, I learn the man who I witnessed act like a superhero was more entwined in my past than I’d remembered. And for a woman often afraid of a future, I suddenly craved one…with him. Which made no sense as I’d never stuck in one place before. No one had ever asked me to stay.

Then again, from our first encounter, I knew Stone Sylver was different.

4.5 Stars

I just knew that Stone's book would be worth every bit of the weight. Strong and stoic Stone who has held his family together all these years. It just might be time for him to find his partner.

Stone is struggling a little bit now that all his siblings have found their love and life partners. This leaving Stone as the odd man out. Maybe it's time he looks for his own piece of happiness. When the one woman who has really caught his eye in the last decade, doesn't push for more, he's feeling a little lost. Until he shows up at Sylver 4th of July baseball game.

Taxi has kept herself at arms reach for her entire life. After loosing both her parents and feeling a bit like she was responsible for her little sisters. Thanks to the love from Aunt Trudy, they all managed to survive. Moving from place to place has been Taxi's thing for so many years she is not sure how to stay in one place. But with Aunt Trudy needing her, she is determined to try for her and Simon. It doesn't help that a certain hot sheriff is in town and getting under her skin.

It is sad when a good series ends, I am not sure I am done with this bunch but I can always re-read.

Grab your copy and enjoy Stone and Taxi's story.

Release Blitz - REAL GOOD MAN by Giulia Lagomarsino

 

Title: Real Good Man

Series: The Last Best Place for Love Book #2

Author: Giulia Lagomarsino

Genre/Tropes: Small Town; Enemies-to-Lovers; Opposites Attract; Dark Secrets; Grumpy/Sunshine; Next-Door Neighbors and Emotionally Unavailable

Release Date: January 26, 2026

In a small town where secrets last five minutes, privacy is a myth, and gossip lasts forever, this might have been the worst possible place to settle.

After my last job fell apart and burned my reputation, I followed Archer to this small town in Nowhere, Montana.

I had no intention of staying longer than the night, but circumstances took a turn for the worse when not only was there not an immediate solution to my job problem, but the only places to stay were the local roach motel or a bed and breakfast with flowery bedspreads and potpourri in every room.

But then I happened to help out a Parker, which apparently meant something in this town.

Not only did I land myself a house rental for as long as I needed, but I ended up with a neighbor who insisted on feeding a stray dog on my property, convinced he was mine.

And as much as I fought it, I found myself sort of liking the damn dog.

Not that I would ever admit that.

But the dog wasn’t the only unexpected addition to my daily life.

It seemed the more I tried to ignore my neighbor—her perky personality, the weird tea concoctions, and her ability to make me want her even when she annoyed me—the more I found myself intertwined in her life.

And that might just get her killed.
