An angsty, best-friends-to-lovers, dark romance from best-selling author, Lola King
He waited years for her to choose him. His patience has run out.
Welcome back to Silver Falls University. There is a murderer among us.
I’ve been best friends with Wren Hunter for sixteen years. The boy who chased me in our schoolyard, kissed my scraped knees, and always swore to protect me grew into the god of Silver Falls University: admired by his peers, desired by every woman on campus, and feared by anyone who gets in his way. Wren knows me better than anyone. He sees through every wall I build. He can handle my fire and my stubbornness. Sometimes I believe he can even tame it. This is why I thought we would never cross the line between friendship and more, no matter how many times we teetered on the edge of it. I was wrong. The mask he wore around me is gone, and what’s underneath is dangerous, unrelenting, obsessive. Wren doesn’t just want me—he decided I’m his.
And in his world, no one says no.
There’s a secret society behind him, powerful enough to cover up anything—or anyone—standing in their way. Now, I’m trapped in his game, bound to a man I don’t recognize, in a world where nothing is what it seems.
Bodies are piling up.
Trust is a luxury.
And Wren Hunter might be the one thing that destroys me.

This is only my second book by this author, but she is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors to read. I am in awe of her writing prowess and her ability to keep readers engaged from the first page to the very end. This book is 500 pages of jaw-dropping intensity that I read within 24 hours – I regret nothing – loss of sleep was worth it.
This book absolutely blew me away. Wren and Peaches have been best friends forever but Wren has always wanted to be more. Peaches just never realized how far Wren was willing to go to make that happen. Peaches also is a very independent and headstrong woman who doesn’t want to be dominated.
And that just barely scrapes that surface of what unfolds in this book. Lola creates a multi-layered story that will keep readers at the edge of their seats, begging for more at each turn of the page. Lola weaves a dark, suspenseful story riddled with twists and turns you won’t see coming. This is a dark romance, so please heed the triggers.

Since then, Tweetie Sorenson has embraced the professional hockey player bachelor lifestyle—his social media is a highlight reel of clubs, friends, and a never-ending stream of different women.
It’s hard to believe he’s the same man who stole my heart the very night we met. With him, everything felt wild, spontaneous, and absolutely perfect. I thought he was my forever.
Then, he broke my heart. Or maybe we broke each other’s. Either way, it was over.
I’ve moved on—new city, dream job—until my boss throws me back into Tweetie’s world. I’m sent to Chicago to manage the Falcons’ social media, which means working alongside the one man I never truly let go of. FML.

Mr. Charming is the fourth book in this series and can be read as a complete standalone. I have not read any of the previous books in this series (but definitely want to now) and had zero issues with reading this story or needing any sort of previous knowledge to appreciate Tedi and Tweetie.
I really enjoyed the dynamics between Tedi and Tweetie. You could immediately feel the pull between them and the difficulty in staying away from one another (for reasons we learned as the book progressed).
I will be honest, Tweetie won me over. He may have his demons, but his love for Tedi was remarkable. Tedi – I understand her reasonings, but didn’t agree with her alot on things. And that’s ok – not every character an author writes is one that I will like, but I still enjoyed their story. My one gripe with this one – the length. I don’t think it needed to be as long as it was – some scenes dragged (for me) and others just felt unnecessary to the plot.
Overall, I really like this second-chance story. I definitely am curious about the secondary characters and their stories, so I will be going back and reading those books now.

Bravo Rachel!! Well done kicking this trilogy off.
This is very fast-paced and I devoured this easily. Rachel does a nice job of detailing the background of the secret society along with how the characters intertwine. This book is told from dual POV’s but you can tell it will leading into a Why Choose/Reverse Harem as the trilogy continues.
Rachel does a great job of blending the mystery behind the SS, using the school and hockey as their cover and the relationship with Avery and the hockey boys. Callahan is the main MMC in this one and he’s quite the complex character.
I won’t go much further into details – the blurb gives you enough to know what you are getting into. Rachel’s writing talent weaves a story of enemies to lovers, transitioning to why choose with a mix of mystery, suspense and mayhem.
Break Your Pucking Heart is a an addictive story that leaves us begging for the next book.

A sexy, small town, grumpy sunshine, single dad, sports romance from USA Today Bestselling Author Willow Aster
I fell in love with his little girl first.
From the moment nine-year-old Becca Fox and I hugged, it was like we’d known each other forever. Precocious, sweet, and kind, I just knew this little girl was exceptional. Her dad, though? Not so much.
Bowie Fox checks every box in the looks department—rugged, intense, and the kind of man who makes you forget how to breathe—but his personality? About as warm as a snowstorm.
That is, until we’re seated together at his best friend’s wedding, and then…we dance.
For hours.
Beneath that gruff and hard exterior, I catch glimpses of a man who wants to let loose and enjoy life.
After the wedding, when a hotel mixup leaves me without a room and stranded in Landmark Mountain, Bowie invites me to stay in his room. In his bed.
It’s innocent at first. Until it’s not. A sizzling one-night stand for the books. Then I wake up alone and when I see him at breakfast, he is as distant as ever.
Bowie lets me know his life revolves around Becca, his teammates, and football. He makes it perfectly clear that there is no room for anyone else—especially the bubbly coach of his daughter.
As much as our paths keep crossing, I know the broody linebacker isn’t ever planning on falling for me, but when I find out I am pregnant—I wonder, Can he fall for us?

1. Stop enough pucks to get the Seattle Serpents to the playoffs.
2. Don’t fall for my fake fiancée.
When Lilah Maddison’s mother keeps trying to set her up on dates she’s not interested in, she blurts out that she’s already seeing someone. The problem? She’s single.
So, I step in to help and agree to pretend to be her boyfriend for an event. But when things go awry, we’re no longer just dating—we’re engaged. Now, I have to find a way to keep her family off her back and our team in a playoff spot, all without falling in love with Lilah, which seems more impossible with each passing day.
She’s funny, driven, drop-dead gorgeous, and not afraid to make the first move. I know we’re playing a dangerous game, yet I can’t stop myself from having feelings I definitely shouldn’t be having, especially not for my fake fiancée.
It’s my job to block, make saves, and keep the puck out of my own net, but this might be one match I can’t win…and I might not want to.
EMPTY NET is a standalone hockey romance novel. There’s a cinnamon roll goalie (who is a very good boy) that is fake engaged to a headstrong heroine, found family vibes, slightly unhinged group chats with teammates, plenty of steam, and a happy ending.

I know I can always count on Teagan to write an entertaining sports romance and this series has fit that bill perfectly.
Empty Net is the fourth book in this series and focuses on Fox and Lilah.
Fox is the epitome of a southern mama’s boy and a true gentleman. I loved how he did not hesitate to step up and help out Lilah, even if she did not want his help.
Lilah is very headstrong and likes to get things done on her own. But it’s impossible for her to ignore the help she needs (and gets) from Fox.
I always enjoy the text chains (Teagan has that in all these books) and it helps keeps add some jovialness to the story. The story flowed very nicely.
Fox’s story was a great addition to the series and I like that none of these players are alike and it keeps the stories fresh and enjoyable.

From #1 Amazon and USA Today Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a single dad, grumpy/sunshine, sports romance.
Falling for the grumpy, single dad next door wasn’t on my summer to-do list.
Did I mention he’s also a football god? A really hot one? Because he is.
Becoming said baller’s new nanny?
Yeah, I definitely didn’t see that one coming.
But nothing about Maverick Beneventi was ever what I expected.
He’s the embodiment of every broody book boyfriend I’ve ever loved, wrapped in deliciously sexy muscles and covered in beautiful black ink. All scowls and sharp edges, I was sure he hated me.
Until one mischievous puppy, one rainy night, and one unexpected job offer changed everything.
Now, my days are filled with bedtime stories and butterfly kisses, all thanks to the one person who can bring Maverick to his knees—his little girl, Rosie.
He doesn’t do complications. Or fun. Or anything that could make him smile. But somewhere between late-night talks and lingering touches, stolen glances and quiet moments . . . something changes, and I did the one thing I swore I wouldn’t.
I fell in love.
With Maverick. With Rosie.
With the life I was sure I’d never have.
And with summer slipping away and my heart on the line, I have to decide—stay and fight for the family I never saw coming . . . or walk away before I destroy it all?

Just when I think Bella can’t outdo herself, she delivers THIS book!!!
I absolutely LOVED everything about this!! This is not your typical single dad/nanny story. I have read many books with this trope, but none quite like this.
I was not expecting the amount of emotions to come out of me while reading this book. The amount of banter between Emmie and Maverick was perfection. It just showed that their chemistry was fire and these knew how to handle the other, but still have respect. And Rosie – that girl stole my heart.
Bella truly knows how to write a phenomenal slow-burn romance with the right amount of tension and spice. I loved that this story made me laugh, cry, get a bit hot under the collar and just have the biggest smile the majority of the book.
This is Bella’s best-to-date book, in my humble opinion.
Worth every penny!
