Release Day Blitz & Review…That Crush by Jillian Dodd

by Courtney

That Crush by Jillian Dodd is now live!

She’s scared to fall in love again. He’s determined to be the one she falls for.

When Damon Diamond first laid eyes on Ainsley Archibald at fifteen, he knew it was more than just a crush. But with their four-year age gap and her indifference, he had to keep his feelings at bay.

Three years later, everything has changed. Damon’s no longer the boy she barely noticed–he’s grown into a confident, irresistible man with one goal for the summer: to make Ainsley his.

Ainsley arrives at her uncle’s resort in the Ozarks, eager to get back out there after a bad breakup. But the moment she lays eyes on Damon, everything shifts. He’s hot, heading to college, and the chemistry between them is undeniable.

What starts as harmless flirting, quickly spirals into feelings that neither of them can ignore.

Torn between her desire for him and the complications of their age difference, Ainsley must decide if she’s ready to risk everything for a summer of love.

Because Damon isn’t just after a fling–he wants her heart.

That Crush is the 9th book in the That Boy series, but can easily be read as a standalone. In all honesty, Jillian could’ve done this as spin-off series and released it that way.

That Crush is an age-gap, he falls first romance. If you have ever read anything by Jillian before, you know she always deliver a phenomenal romance story and this is no different.

This entire book takes place over the span of a week, but it also doesn’t feel that way. This is the second book recently where the actual time frame is short, but the story itself makes you forget that. What I was not expecting though – that ending.

I now not-so-patiently wait for the next book (or two) for Ainsley and Damon’s story to continue.

Release Day Blitz…Release Me by K.A. Tucker

by Courtney

Release Me by K.A. Tucker is now live!

Release Me is the first book in the highly addictive Wolf Hotel Mermaid Beach series, a spin-off of the Wolf Hotel series.

I may not know much, but I am an expert in two things:

Heartbreak.

And hedonism.

I’ve been chasing escape from one bed to the next, finding distraction in all the wrong places.

Like with my roommate’s sister.

And my billionaire boss’s lover.

You could say I’m lucky in lust but very unlucky in the other L-word.

By the time I arrive in Mermaid Beach, Florida, I’ve decided I’m done with flings. I’m over chasing women I can’t have.

Until I meet Sloane Parker, the woman who has made it her mission to ruin the new Wolf Hotel.

A hotel I’m supposed to help manage, by the way. Yeah. Me, Ronan Lyle, Director of Facilities.

Don’t you dare laugh.

I don’t need another forbidden woman in my life, especially one who could derail my future.

But what I want? That’s a totally different story.

Please note: This series is intended for a mature audience.

Release Day Blitz & Review…You Were Never Not Mine by Monica Murphy

by Courtney

You Were Never Not Mine by Monica Murphy is now live!

She should hate him at first sight…

August Lancaster is a menace. His power at Lancaster Prep is legendary, and no one dares cross him. He’s a ruling senior, and everyone wants to be his friend, or at the very least stay in his good graces.

When he sets his sights on me my freshman year, he makes me wish I never existed. His constant, unwanted attention is humiliating. He makes me burn with both anger and desire. Even though I try to give as good as I get, it isn’t until he graduates that I can actually breathe.

Now I’m finally at college, and it’s everything I want it to be. New people, new experiences, new Sinclair. Until I discover that August attends the same university. When he starts flirting with me at a frat party, I realize he doesn’t even recognize me. At first, I’m humiliated all over again, but I quickly decide to make it my mission to remind August f’ing Lancaster exactly who I am.

I start running into him everywhere. Problem is, he can’t stop talking to me. Kissing me. Touching me. It’s like he’s obsessed with me, and soon enough…I’m worried I’m becoming obsessed with him, too.

But can I trust him? Does someone like August ever truly change? Or is he going to ruin me yet again?

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3WaQNb5

You Were Never Not Mine – the final (maybe) book in the Lancaster Prep generation and Monica gives her readers a impactful story.

August and Sinclair’s story is quite the doozy. It’s told from both their POVs and has some flashbacks to their past when they had their first encounter.

Monica paces this story perfectly – it’s fast paced with a very engaging plot that is very character driven. I have to say that August made this book outstanding for me. You have to read it to find out why.

I have read this entire generation (the first Lancaster Prep series and this spin-off with their children) and I absolutely love it. I love Monica’s writing style as it matches perfectly with this world and the characters she has created.

You can easily read this book without having any previous knowledge of any other books, but do know that it will make you want to read the other books in this world.

Meet Monica

Monica Murphy is a New York Times, USA Today, and international bestselling romance author. Her books have been translated in almost a dozen languages and have sold over two million copies worldwide. Both a traditionally published and independently published author, she writes young adult, new adult and contemporary romance.

Release Day Blitz…A Captive Situation by Tijan

by Courtney

A Captive Situation by Tijan is now live!

New York Times bestselling author Tijan delivers a bold romance about two people wrestling with emotional trauma, thrown into a deadly—and heated—power dynamic when the mafia comes after them both.

Every bride dreams of her wedding day.

Today was supposed to be that day for me, except it’s not me marrying my college sweetheart.

My best friend is doing that. Or, well, my ex–best friend.

Instead, I’m over a thousand miles away, riding the subway in a city where lost people come to dream.

Me—I’m just hoping to distract myself from my heartbreak.

That is, until I met Jake Worthing.

Grumpy.

Hot.

A total jerk.

Did I mention hot?

Also, extremely presumptuous.

Just because I look like I’m a thought away from a total meltdown does not mean I need an ambulance.

He had the audacity to ask if I needed medical treatment.

Well, good riddance to him.

I don’t ever have to see him again.

Except, well, I do when I’m taken to the police station for a total misunderstanding.

He walks in and…gah. He’s the same that I remember from our first meeting.

Brooding. Still gorgeous. (The universe is not fair sometimes.)

He’s stirring up emotions that I didn’t know were still inside of me.

Then someone tries to shoot him and I’m a witness, and…er, how is it that I’m the one being kidnapped?

And by Jake?

Now I’m heated for a whole different reason.

If I get myself out of this captive situation, I’m going to reign down my own destruction starting with Jake Worthing.

I just have to survive first and, also, not get my heart broken. Again.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Sweet Surrender by K. Bromberg

by Courtney

Sweet Surrender by K. Bromberg is now live!

A sexy, rock star, marriage of convenience romance by New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg.

Jase Gizmodo is the wild card of the world-famous band BENT. He drums like a legend, lives like a rebel, and attracts headlines like a magnet. But when his recklessness causes a no-nonsense judge to threaten the band’s upcoming international tour, he needs a quick fix—and proof that he’s settling down might just do the trick.

Enter Hendrix Wright. Cookie queen. Small business owner. And barely hanging on. Her dream bakery is on the brink of closing its doors thanks to her ex’s betrayal, and she needs a miracle. Who knew a chance meeting with a charming, enigmatic, and incredibly sexy stranger in a coffee shop would change all that?

So when that stranger, Jase, offers her a deal—a temporary marriage for the cameras in exchange for the money to save her bakery—Hendrix should run. Fast. But instead, she finds that the more time they spend faking wedded bliss, the more real their chemistry feels.

Because falling for a rockstar was never part of the plan.

But surrendering? That might be the sweetest risk of all.

Sweet Surrender is the best description (and obvious title) for this book.

Jase and Hendrix could not be more different from one another if they tried. But she’s what he needs and he’s got something she needs. What could go wrong!? LOL

I really enjoyed the banter between these two. It showed not only their chemistry, but who they are as individuals. We got to see another side of Jase that only Hendrix was able to pull out of him.

I don’t want to say much because it gives away the dynamics between these two and their story. I enjoyed the forced proximity and how these two handled it and what it created between them.

Sweet Surrender is more than just a rockstar romance; it’s an emotional story that readers will absolutely love.

Meet Kristy

Release Day Blitz & Review…Bracing The Storm by J.C. Reed

by Courtney

★★ Bracing The Storm is LIVE! ★★

Buy now for $2.99 (for a limited time) or read it for FREE in KU

“I don’t trust my instincts around the man behind the wheel. He’s too good-looking. Too confident. Too everything I’ve always tried to avoid in a man”

“He’s perfection. Everything about him is, from his looks to his singing and the way he carries himself.”

From New York Times Bestselling Author, J.C. Reed, comes Bracing The Storm, a small-town, enemies-lovers romance!

The guy I just met at the mansion I inherited from a complete stranger? He’s drop-dead gorgeous. Sexy. And rude with a Capital R.

Turns out he’s not the hot gardener as I wrongly assumed.

He’s not only a famous rockstar who grew up in the house, he’s also ready to fight for it. And being both hot-headed and Irish, he’s going to fight hard and dirty.

I’m not moving out. Full Stop.

But neither is he.

So we agree on some simple rules.

We’ll play roommates for a while. What could possibly go wrong?

Living together with an Irish Hothead will surely cause a major storm.

Let’s hope bracing that storm won’t turn into a hurricane.

Author’s note – This is a romance book with a storyline that doesn’t fit into one single book. It is book one in a duet, so beware of the cliff. If you can’t handle cliffhangers, stop at the end of chapter 25 and let it be your temporary HEA.

by Courtney

You, Me and Forever by Laura Pavlov is now live!

USA Today bestselling author Laura Pavlov delivers a spicy enemies-to-lovers romance about a billionaire developer and a small-town entrepreneur battling their desires in the Land of the Midnight Sun.

Myles St. James is tearing my world apart.

Wish I’d known that before I slept with him.

It was supposed to be a one-night stand.

Like I knew anything about those.

But I needed to blow off steam.

My ex had just gotten engaged.

My dry spell was nearing six months.

And my booming wedding planning business—the one I started with my bestie—was about to lose its favorite venue to some bulldozer-happy developer from New York.

The Seaside Inn is such a special place.

My second home.

And ever since that famous singer got married there, people are flocking to Blushing, Alaska, for their own weddings too.

Guess whose fling turns out to be the hotshot real estate guy?

But he isn’t what I expected.

And sleeping with the enemy doesn’t feel nearly as wrong as it should.

Because Myles St. James is rocking my world.

Too bad giving in to him could mean giving up my dreams.

Release Day Blitz…Built to Last by Lexi Blake

by Courtney

Built to Last by Lexi Blake is now live!

From New York Times bestselling author Lexi Blake, discover The Park Avenue Promise Series…

Three young women make a pact in high school—

to always be friends and to one day make it big in Manhattan

Built to Last

Harper Ross has always dreamed of working on one of the magnificent brownstones of Park Avenue. Now one of her closest friends has bought the house of her dreams and hired Harper to do the construction work. She wants to showcase the renovation on a television show for her brand-new production company. It’s the same grand home she and her friends promised themselves they would be able to afford one day. Working on it isn’t the same as living in it, but it’s all a part of Harper’s grand plan to grow her father’s construction business into one of the biggest in the city. The only obstacle—the designer on the project.

Reid Dorsey believes in the balance between beauty and functionality. As one of Manhattan’s new voices in design, he’s excited to get to work on a true Gilded Age property. If only the owner had selected a contractor he enjoyed working with. Oh, Harper was brilliant and her work was excellent, but she has an opinion on everything—and it’s usually the opposite of his.

Over the course of the job, these enemies start to see different sides of each other, and suddenly their fights don’t seem so bad. But when the project is threatened, they might have to choose between their jobs and the beautifully designed future they could share.

Cover Reveal…Where We Bloom by Kristen Proby

by Courtney

Kristen Proby has revealed the gorgeous cover for Where We Bloom!

Releasing: July 17, 2025

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes Where We Bloom, an Age Gap, Billionaire, Best Friend’s Brother romance set in Bitterroot Valley!

Connor

After an explosive night together, I thought I’d never see the gorgeous bookstore owner again. We didn’t exchange names and numbers and when I left her asleep the next morning, I didn’t intend to pursue her. I don’t have time for relationships nor entanglements.

I’m the CEO of Gallagher Hotels, and my life is spent around the world, focusing on my business, not a small town in Montana. Even if my thoughts keep returning to the most incredible woman I’ve ever met.

But, it turns out, my mystery woman, Billie, is my sister’s best friend, and is suddenly everywhere I turn. She’s become my obsession and all I think about. She’s become the only thing that means more to me than running my empire. And I’m determined to have her.

Billie

Owning a bookstore in my hometown of Bitterroot Valley has been my lifelong dream since I was a little girl. The only thing that brings me more joy is my love of thrift stores and coffee.

And, maybe, the sexy Irishman with intense emerald colored eyes that take my breath away. His charming accent, the way he looks at me, and spoils me with lavish gifts is just the icing on the cake. I’ve tried to stay away from him, but my resolve is slipping. Nothing is better than being in Connor’s arms and feeling like I’m the most important woman in his world. But being with a high profile billionaire comes with a price. Can we withstand the storm headed our way or are we destined to fall apart like delicate blooms in the wind?

Release Day Blitz & Review…A Good Book by Jewel E Ann

by Courtney

A Good Book by Jewel E. Ann is now live!

Gabriella Jacobson has one goal for her freshman year of college: Get Matthew Cory to fall in love with her.

Lucky for Gabby, her best friend, Ben, is attending the same college on a music scholarship. He is the perfect resource—girls love him, and he’s more experienced with relationships than her, since she’s never had a boyfriend.

When Gabby panics before her first date with Matt, she begs Ben to show her how to kiss. But Ben has a secret, one he’s been keeping from Gabby for years. He’s in love with her.

One kiss turns into two, leaving Gabby confused and scared that their friendship might not survive the unforeseen emotions. She avoids Ben until something unexpected changes his life forever, and he’s forced to drop out of school.

Gabby tries to contact him, but he won’t respond. And Matthew Cory, her sister’s ex-boyfriend and handsome law student, is ready to fill the void Ben left behind.

Now that Gabby has the man she thought she wanted, can she forget about the boy who kissed her twice?

Another phenomenal story by Jewel. I know, I know – I say that with every book she writes. But it’s so completely true. And none of her stories ever repeat anything – not one character is alike and not one storyline is ever the same.

A Good Book is a beautiful and emotional, coming of age story between two best friends; Gabby and Ben. These two have grownup together and are now going off to the same college together.

I want to say so much, but know that I will send up spoiling the story if I do. Jewel always know how to write stories that pull at your emotions and has you feeling everything her characters endure.

While this story is told in dual POV’s, it’s mostly from Gabby’s. I wanted more from Ben so I could understand his though process on things more and not seeing it threw Gabby’s viewpoint. And that is my only reason for not giving this 5 stars, but it did not hurt the overall story.

I loved this story so much. It felt very authentic and real and I know that readers will connect more to these characters and their story because of that. Another fantastic read from Jewel!
