BLURB

 

Despite growing up without it, William Walker knows all about love. He loves his wife. He loves his children. He loves the cat. He has the perfect family, and all he had to do to get it was push aside one pesky little feeling.

 

 
Unfortunately, love doesn’t pay the bills.
 
Following redundancy, an opportunity thrusts the amiable electrician into a world he’s only seen on the big screen, a world he’s now a part of creating. As a spark on a movie set, William is enthralled by the challenge. The freedom. The possibilities. And, in particular, by one very charismatic actor…
 
Laurence Cole.
 
The trouble with Laurence is that he makes that pesky feeling resurface. Worse, the longer he sticks around, the stronger it grows, the more it changes. Into what, William doesn’t know. It’s not love. William Walker knows all about love.
 
Unless…
 
It’s a different kind of love.

AUTHOR BIO

 

Born in Manchester, England, Nicola Haken is an author of multiple genre-hopping romance novels, including Bring Me Home, Broken, and Goodbye Kate. She lives in Rochdale with her husband, four children, and a menagerie of pets, is addicted to Pepsi Max and chicken nuggets, and wishes Harry Styles was her best friend. Like one of her characters, Hugo Hayes, Nicola is autistic, and has battled with her mental health her entire life – winning every time…eventually. With two of her kids also on the spectrum, life can get pretty…interesting! When she’s not locked in her office playing with her imaginary friends, she can usually be found reading, binge-watching boxsets, or belting out great songs and pretending she doesn’t sound like a cat in distress. Oh, and if the kids ever ask, she moonlights as the Pink Power Ranger while they’re sleeping…

Nicola has popped my M/M romance cherry and it was the perfect book to do so.

William’s story is one for the books. I felt his emotions coming off the pages and just wanted to swallow him up in hugs and love.

I won’t give his story away because it’s one that needs to blind. The blurb gives you and idea of what his story is about, but it’s experiencing everything that he feels and goes through that makes this book phenomenal.

I have to say that Nicola creates some of the best characters and makes them so relatable and easy to love.

There is so much growth and self-reflection in this book and it just really seeped into my soul.

I cannot wait for everyone to read this one.

Title: 10 Signs You Need to Grovel
Series: Bower Boys #2
Author: Kelly Siskind
Publisher: Montlake
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 31, 2023
 
 
BLURB

A grumpy bartender learns he’s a dad in Kelly Siskind’s latest Bower Boys romance full of second chances, small-town charm, and steamy, slow-burn heat.
 
For the last ten years, I’ve been living a lie in witness protection. But the drug cartel that put me there isn’t a threat anymore, so I can have my life back. I should be thrilled, right?
 
Wrong.
 
The last thing I want to do is go back home and show everyone how far I’ve fallen. I’m not the high-powered lawyer they all expect me to be. I’m just a guy who slings drinks and scowls at the world.
 
But then I hear about Max, my ex’s ten-year-old son. My ten-year-old son.
 
I have to go back now. Figure out how to be a dad. Face the love of my life. Make things right with Sadie and earn her trust. Will she have me—or is it too late to reinvent myself as the man she once loved?

Kelly Siskind has delivered another great book in the Bower Boy series.

Demond is the oldest of the brothers and the broodiest of them. Everything was stolen from him when his family was forced into WITSEC because of his father’s choices. He’s never been able to truly deal with everything he lost. But now that he can return to his old life, he’s not sure he wants to until he finds out about Max.

I absolutely loved watching Desmond become more than his grumpy self. I loved watching him get to know his son and learning how he hits into Max’s life. The interactions between those two are my favorite parts of this book. It was just beautiful to watch Des become a better version of himself.

Des and Sadie fell into their familiar relationship with ease. I do wish we had her POV and how she’s handled things in the last ten years without Des around (that is my only gripe) but you can tell these two are fated to be together.

10 Signs You Need to Grovel is chocked full of emotions and will have you loving this small town (and all the people in it), very easily.

The lovely Ms. Robinson truly knows how to start a series off with a bang!!!

Tempting Enemy was different than I anticipated and I loved it!!

Haven is the youngest amongst her siblings and the only girl. So she’s had enough of her overbearing brothers. She’s learn to be feisty and fight for what she wants. And she has sights set on Hayes.

Hayes does his best to keep Haven away from him. He does everything in his power to keep her safe too. He may not her to get tangled up with him, but he also protects her from others.

I loved everything about Haven and Hayes story. The chemistry is undeniable but that underlying drama that threatens to crush it, is what adds another layer to this story.

Monica – you have outdone yourself with this one. This is going to be one awesome series!!

Release Day Blitz…The Score by Kristen Proby

An all-new meet-cute sports romance from New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Kristen Proby, featuring Sophie Montgomery!

The Score by Kristen Proby is now live!

I have millions of followers on social media, and it has absolutely nothing to do with my last name. It’s because I’m good at what I do. I work hard, and it has paid off.
I’m not a trainer who only talks the talk, either. I walk the walk—or rather, I run the run. It was actually during one of those jogs through the park that I ran into him.


Of course, at the time, I didn’t realize it was the Isaiah “Ike” Harrison, Seattle’s hot new quarterback. All I knew was that I was suddenly pinned under some solid, sexy body, unable to breathe.


But even now, I keep running into Ike in the most unexpected places.
And he’s doing everything in his power to convince me that he’s not just a player—in any form of the word.
It’s so much more than that.
But I’ve been there, done that. I have the mended broken heart to prove it and have no intention of doing it again.
Except the frustrating man is convincing, and my walls are quickly lowering—especially when I feel responsible for possibly upending his career.


Is letting him in a mistake? Or will it be the best thing I’ve ever done?

Release Day Blitz & Review…Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

 

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry is now live!

 

Eloise Eden’s pride and joy is her family’s hotel in Quincy, Montana. Her lifelong dream is to own The Eloise Inn. All she has to do is prove to her parents that she’s the epitome of responsible. That her days of being duped and making reckless decisions are history. She’s so close she can taste it.

Until after one weekend in Las Vegas, she comes home married to a stranger.

Jasper must have put her under a spell with those soul-deep eyes because after a single night together, they woke up husband and wife. Her only hope is to keep this marriage a secret until it’s annulled. Then she’ll pretend it never happened.

Except Jasper begs her to stay married. To fake it for three months so she can accompany him to a wedding. Maybe she’s lost her mind to agree. But her brooding husband seems desperate. It’s only three months, right? Then she’ll say goodbye to Jasper Vale, and with any luck, hello to her new hotel.

Goodreads: https://geni.us/VtVvUdB

Jasper Vale is the fourth book in Devney’s The Edens series and can be read as a full standalone.

I have been waiting for Eloise’s book since I started this series and I was not disappointed.

First off, I have to say that I love that we got to see Eloise in Vegas and being free for once. That started of this book in the best way and gave us a full circle of who Eloise really is. I loved Eloise from the start of this series and getting to know her even more throughout this book just made me love her.

We got to meet Jasper in the last book, but only knew him as Foster’s trainer. He’s definitely a closed-off individual but as the book progresses, we get to know him better through his interactions with Eloise. He’s got quite the past and it explains a lot.

I loved that I could feel the connection between Eloise and Jasper come to life as I read this book. There are certain scenes I did not care for, but it didn’t hurt my overall love of this book. Eloise’s story was everything I had expected it to be.

Overall, I absolutely enjoyed this book. Another smashing hit in The Edens series.

Release Day Blitz…Promise Me Always by A. L. Jackson

Promise Me Always by A.L. Jackson is now live!

I should know better than to let Tessa McDaniels pretend to be my fiancée.

I’m a dark, dangerous disaster who leaves destruction in his wake.

But when she offers to pretend to marry me to help me get my kids back, I can’t refuse. They are the one thing I have left to fight for.


Milo Hendricks found me at my lowest.

Battered and broken by my ex with no place to call home. When he insists I stay at his cabin with him, he sparks the feelings I’ve tried to suppress.

He’s only supposed to be my friend, but every time he comes in the room, he makes my knees weak.

This gorgeous, tatted, mountain-of-a-man who’s riddled with secrets.


Tessa is everything I crave but can’t have.

I shouldn’t touch her.

Shouldn’t make it real.

But she’s a red-headed flame I can’t resist, and I can’t help but take her to my bed.


Now we’re falling into an abyss of passion and need.

Loving her is easy.

Only we’re tied in ways we don’t know.

I’ll do anything to protect her, but it’s my past that might destroy her in the end…

Cover Reveal…Hail Mary by Kandi Steiner


Kandi Steiner has revealed the gorgeous cover for Hail Mary!

Releasing: February 15, 2023

Cover Design: Kandi Steiner

Photographer: Ren Saliba

Model: Anonymous

Leo F*cking Hernandez.

North Boston University’s star running back, notorious bachelor, and number one on my people I would murder if I could get away with it list.

And now?

He’s my new roommate.

I used to think I loved him.

But that was before I hated him.

He doesn’t remember who I am, or how he made my life miserable for years. And before I unknowingly moved across the street from him, I couldn’t have cared less. I was living my life despite him and what happened that summer, chasing my dream of becoming a tattoo artist.

“The Pit,” as the university so gracefully nicknamed the house he lives in with three other football players, has served as nothing more than a pain in my ass and a constant reminder of the boy who broke my heart. Watching him parade his one-night-stands in and out of it never helped, either.

But with rent this cheap and so close to the tattoo shop, I’ve learned to ignore him — no matter how he’s tried to get under my skin.

At least, until this summer. Because when a water and mold disaster leaves me with no choice but to vacate my house, I have nowhere to go. And Leo Hernandez offers me a deal I can’t refuse.

Live at The Pit with him and the guys, free of charge, until my landlord fixes this mess.

Ignoring him was easy when I lived across the street, but in the same house, with him shirtless half the time and watching me with his cocky grin and searing gaze? It’s impossible.

Still, I have to try. I have to push him away, even when he makes it infuriatingly difficult to do so.

He’s broken my heart once.

I won’t let him do it again.

Cover Reveal…Three Strikes and You’re Mibe by R. S. Grey

Three Strikes And You’re Mine by R.S. Grey is coming February 23rd and we’re so excited to be sharing the gorgeous cover reveal of this new standalone romcom!

Title: Three Strikes And You’re Mine

Author: R.S. Grey

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: February 23rd

About Three Strikes And You’re Mine:

Dear Past Me,

 

Future You here, coming to offer a little advice: hang on for dear life. This summer is going to be a wild one. I know what you’re thinking: Life’s going so well! I don’t have a care in the world! Wrong. That culinary career you love so much? It’s about to go up in smoke, and your boyfriend? Yeah…he’s a goner too. If only love were as simple as, say, actually adding yourself to the lease agreement so you don’t suddenly find yourself loveless, jobless, and homeless!

 

Did your five-year plan include moving back in with your family and sharing a bed with your Nonna? No? Well, hate to break it to you…it’s exactly as traumatizing as it sounds.

 

Have you had enough? Too bad. Buckle up—it gets worse. Your new boss is a professional baseball player, and he’s hot, like really hot, but you’ll pretend not to notice because he’s a single dad and it feels wrong to ogle him in front of his innocent child. Unfortunately, he thinks you’re sexy as hell too. Unrequited love is one thing; mutual off-limits pining destined to explode in the worst of ways? What could go wrong…wrong…wrong… (That’s me fading out because you have to take it from here, kid. Good luck! Don’t screw this up for me.)

 

Sincerely,

Your future (wiser) self

This was my first book by Piper Lawson. I was intrigued by the blurb and wanted to give this new to me author a try.

One thing I wish I knew when I started this book was that it was initially 3 separate books combined into one story. This book took me longer than usual to get through. Did I enjoy – overall, yes. However, there were times when I had to stop, read something else and then come back to this one. While it wasn’t bad enough for me to DNF, there were times it wasn’t holding my attention enough for me to care either. Then when I found that it’s 3 books combined into one, it all made sense to me. And I probably would have appreciated the story line a bit more.

Tyler and Annie’s story spans many years and full of so many different emotions. While the beginning of this story was very slow-paced for me (again had I known it was book 1 of a trilogy probably wouldn’t have bothered me) so I struggled getting immersed into these characters lives at first.

One thing I have to point out that, regardless of knowing this was one book or 3-in-1, was the fluidity of time – these transitions were beautiful and very smooth. As the story moved along, I found myself enjoying it more and more.

Overall, I enjoyed this book and I’m grateful that I didn’t give up when things weren’t to my liking. It definitely won’t be my last book by Piper.

Author: Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance

Photographer: Martin Traynor
Model: Christian Ganon @christianganon46
Release Date: February 27, 2023
BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a friends-to-lovers story spanning more than a decade…

At first, I thought I’d hate spending the summer with Archie Remington—the conceited son of my parents’ friends.
What I knew about Archie: he was gorgeous, pre-law, and had always treated me like I didn’t exist when we were younger.
When our families bought a house together on an island in Maine, he and I were forced to share a bathroom.
The boy I remembered was now a full-grown man—but with the same attitude.
After a rough start, Archie and I unexpectedly started getting along one day and eventually became friends. We shared secrets and bonded during our morning jogs. I discovered that Archie had a wild spirit and that he struggled to conform to his father’s expectations.
Things were cool until I had to go and ruin it, getting drunk one night, and blurting out my fantasy—involving him.
I took it back, but it was too late. Archie had heard me loud and clear. After that, we never quite knew how to toe the line.
When that summer came to an abrupt and shocking end, I headed back to college, unsure if anything would ever be the same again.
Across the miles over the years, he and I stayed in touch as friends, but fate and timing always kept us from becoming more.
You know the saying: If two people are meant to be, they’ll find their way back to each other?
Let’s just say Archie came back into my life in a way I would’ve never expected.
And this time, my heart would really be put to the test.

Release Day Blitz & Review…How To Lose At Love by Sara Ney

 
 
 
 
 
Release Date: January 19

 

 

I needed a good girl to save my bad reputation.

 

With too much on my plate, the very last thing on my mind was a relationship—the football draft was looming and dating got in the way. I never understood why my teammates bothered with girlfriends. None of us had the time.
 
When my sports agent suggested that being seen in public with a respectable girl would begoodfor mybadreputation, I couldn’t think of a single person to help me out. The only girls I knew weren’t wifey material, and the ones who were? Might catch feelings.
 
Except Ryann Winters.
 
Responsible. Sarcastic. Smart. Ryann was perfect but there wasoneclincher: she was my teammates ex-girlfriend and I had recently beenpaidby him to dump her.
 
Not the best start to a fake relationship…
