Pop Quiz: You’re a woman alone in the forest… would you rather run into a man or a bear?
I’m lost out in the woods when I cross paths with a strange man. He offers to take me back to his campsite, feed me, get me warm, but every instinct in me screams NO!
He is an opportunistic predator, and I am his prey.
I run. He chases. And just before I’m traumatized for life, I hear a loud roar as a seven hundred pound Grizzly bear rips the man off me and mauls him to death.
So…. Team Bear?
If only it were so simple. This isn’t just any normal bear. He’s a bear shifter, and he’s convinced I’m his fated mate.
I appreciate the life saving and all, but I have goals and dreams, and I won’t allow fate to play matchmaker for me, no matter how otherwise appealing the shifter in question may be.
Entertaining & fast-paced shifter story based on the question, “You’re a woman alone in the forest…would you rather run into a man or a bear?”
This is definitely on the lighter side of Kitty Thomas but just as entertaining. I had been reading alot of deep, emotional reads and this was the perfect “palate cleanse” for me and it was so good too.
Mating Season was the perfect blend of humor, fated mates and the right touch of steam with how quick of a read it is.
Highly recommended read!

Every story needs a villain.
The arrogance. The conceit. The lone wolf.
Oliver Rossi is that person on the track.
And leave it to me . . . I’ve gone and fallen for him.
Rossi is his own worst enemy. He doesn’t care what people think or what’s expected of him. And he’s reached the pinnacle of his sport because of his bad boy ways.
He’s unpredictable and reckless on the track. He’s even worse off of it. After years of circling around each other, all it took was one night, one uncharacteristic act of chivalry, to know I wanted more with the man everyone hates.
Forget the warnings from my brother about his new teammate and the fallout from my family—he’s worth the risk.
With his job on the line and eyes always on us, secret trysts are all we allow ourselves.
It’s all fun and games until lust turns to love and for now begins to feel like not enough.
I want it all.
I want forever.
And I want it with Oliver Rossi.
But is Rossi willing to show the world he’s ready to move past his villain era so we can have our own happily ever after or will this whole thing spin out of control?

Fire burns the worst sins. Trust is overrated. Killing for pleasure is messy, bloody, chaotic…
He was supposed to die.
But now I have him where I want him, I can’t help but taste him a little.
All of them.
They’ve gotten under my skin. These Sacred Heart boys.
The way they look at me, a need, a hunger clawing inside, I recognize it in the mirror. It’s their eyes. They tell me they don’t give a fuck if they live or die. That I’m the prey and they’re the carnivores. That they’re soulless.
But in the end, they all beg. Violent, bloody, and raw. Because I’m the real monster.
They just don’t know it yet.

First book I have read in one day because I could not put this down!!!
I love anything by Tijan because she delivers her stories with depth and characters that grip you, hard. Frisco is just another perfect example of her talented writing skills.
Frisco is a full standalone MC romance and Tijan delivers this one perfectly.
I loved everything about this book; the pacing, plot development, characters and their interactions. This story is told from both Shane and Kali’s POV and this allows readers to see the connection between the FMC and her friends and family and the MMC and his club/friends/family.
I loved how natural this story was. Tijan stayed true to her characters, their mannerisms, who and what they are and that just added to this very well plotted out story. I love the depth of this plot and all the intricacies littered throughout the story.
My favorite, unexpected part – Kali’s dad, he was the icing on the cake. Chef’s kiss
Another phenomenal story from Tijan.

Neither is spending my first evening in a new city with the sexy stranger who rescues me when I’m locked out of a friend’s place wearing next to nothing. But I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone so getting out of the rest of my clothes with him seems like a good way to start. In the morning, I learn the filthy-mouthed man with the talented hands is not only the hotshot new hockey player on my brother’s team. He’s also – wait for it – my brand new roommate. Thanks, fate. But the last thing I need is a complicated fling so we agree to a friends-only rule. It’s not easy though. Wes is bossy, flirty and generous. He gives me rides to work. Pitches in at my library’s fundraiser. Takes care of me when I get hurt. I don’t know how long I can stick to our rules, especially the night Wes comes to my door and tells me exactly how he’d like to break them. Every single one.

Trope: Best friend’s little sister, age-gap, forced proximity, summer fling to forever, small town
Synopsis
It was a simple promise—watch out for my best friend’s little sister the same way I would my own.
Turns out, Brenna is a lot more grown-up than I realized. And a lot more beautiful. Which makes sharing an apartment with her this summer tougher than I expected.
Until she shares something with me. Something she’s never shared with anyone. Something that makes me want to step in and help.
Something that changes everything.
Soon enough, my wanting to be with her has nothing to do with that promise I made and everything to do with the undeniable spark between us.
It doesn’t matter that I’m more than a decade older than she is. Or what our small town thinks.
But Brenna’s time in Hickory Hills is limited, making everything more complicated.
The more time I spend with Brenna, the harder it is to stay apart. The more I want to convince her to stay.
I already broke my promise to her brother. But I will keep my promise to her.

She calls me Pretty Boy.
I call her mine.
From the first time I saw Bay Astor, that was it.
I wanted her.
Nothing would stand in the way of owning her the same way she possessed my thoughts. Not even a rivalry against the faceless gang that ran her part of town.
I’m the Prince of The Landings and she’s the South Shore runner with a love for burning rubber and fast cars, who won’t stop running product through my streets. We’re constantly at odds.
Nothing is more infuriating than her.
Truly the biggest pain in my ass…and I’m not the only one who’s noticed.
My best friend wants her as badly as I do, smitten as hell. And my other buddy thinks she’s the devil respawned, out to destroy us and everything we’ve built.
We’re just a bunch of stupid idiots who can’t figure out what to do with her.
But I’m looking to find out.
Bay Astor can run. She can hide. Hell, she can even deny that she wants me—which is a lie. I’ve never had a problem chasing her before.
Even if it costs me everything.

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…
No one but me knew why I was actually in the California desert that day.
Nestled deep within the desolate, rocky area was a recording studio.
When a door suddenly opened, a man mistook me for someone he was supposed to be interviewing for a job.
The next thing I knew, I was whisked inside.
The position? An assistant on the upcoming tour for one of America’s most famous rock bands.
Pretty exciting opportunity for a twenty-two-year-old, just out of college.
Not surprisingly, I bombed the interview.
When I ended up mistakenly walking into the men’s room on my way out, I struck up a conversation with a stranger—not realizing it was the lead singer, Tristan Daltrey.
He seemed to like the fact that I had no idea who he was, that I saw him as a normal person.
That night, I got a call offering me the job.
So began my complicated story with Tristan.
Millions of women loved him.
Yet for some reason, after the shows, he only wanted to hang out with me.
Late-night talks. Casual dinners in his hotel room.
I wasn’t supposed to be fraternizing with the band’s frontman.
Despite our fifteen-year age difference, Tristan and I had a connection.
But I had a secret.
One that would eventually lead to my leaving the tour.
And one that would lead Tristan and the band straight to the small town where I came from.
Both the Kindle version and model-cover paperback will go live on/around release day.
The current paperback preorder is for the special-edition, floral cover only.

Morgan Elizabeth has revealed the gorgeous cover for Passenger Princess!
Releasing: August 9, 2024
A sexy, Bodyguard, Grumpy/Sunshine, Celebrity romance from best-selling author, Morgan Elizabeth.
Who knew applying to be the next Miss Americana while you’re drunk on tequila would actually get anywhere? But that’s exactly what happened to Ava when she wanted an excuse to promote her best friends’ new businesses. She never even expected to get past the first round of auditions, much less win the beauty pageant, and now here she is, wearing a silk sash and a crown on her head, trying to picture what the next three months is going to look like. As the newly crowned Miss Americana, she’s off on a three-month press tour, visiting all 50 states as part of her contract.
For a girl who loves adventure, it’s a dream come true, except for two hiccups. The first one being the morality clause and long list of rules the organization is forcing her to live by while wearing the crown. And second, and probably the worst one, is the deliciously sexy, yet grumpy driver-slash-bodyguard assigned to keep her in line.
Jaime normally spends his days as head of security for the world-famous rock band Atlas Oaks, but when they take a break from touring, he’s excited for a change of pace. Until he learns his new assignment is the gorgeous and ever-frustrating pageant princess who gets under his skin in more ways than one.
When he learns Ava has made it her mission to drive him crazy—by constantly looking for a new hit of endorphins by toeing the line as well as by flirting with him endlessly—he realizes what he thought would be a simple assignment is anything but. Now if only he can survive the next ninety days keeping his hands to himself and off the woman he can’t get out of his head.
Morgan is a born and raised Jersey girl, living there with her two boys, toddler daughter, and mechanic husband. She’s addicted to iced espresso, barbecue chips, and Starburst jellybeans. She usually has headphones on, listening to some spicy audiobook or Taylor Swift. There is rarely an in between. Writing has been her calling for as long as she can remember. There’s a framed ‘page one’ of a book she wrote at seven hanging in her childhood home to prove the point. Her entire life she’s crafted stories in her mind, begging to be released but it wasn’t until recently she finally gave them the reigns.
I’m so grateful you’ve agreed to take this journey with me.
