Release Day Blitz…Crucible by B.B. Reid

Crucible by B.B. Reid is now live! 

From bestselling author B.B. Reid comes a wicked retelling of your favorite fable. Have you heard the tale of Goldilocks? This one’s just right…

America’s sweetheart has been canceled.

From teen star to international phenom to the biggest celebrity in the world, Aurelia George has suddenly found herself on the other side of adoration. The public thinks they hate her when they never really knew her. The saddest tragedy of all is that she doesn’t know herself.

Done with the fame, glitz, and glam—the whole doe-eyed princess charade—Aurelia decides she’s taking back her life, even if it costs her everything.

But her uncle has other plans.

Shipped far away until the heat dies, Aurelia finds herself in the one place where her name means nothing. When a blizzard causes her plane to crash, she becomes stranded in the wilds of Northern Canada, a sole survivor with no one to turn to.

No one except them.

The misanthropic mountain men who’ve shut themselves away.

It’s their cabin Aurelia finds in the icy wilderness and their obsession she ignites when they discover her sleeping in one of their beds. Thorin, Khalil, and Ezekiel (and all of his personalities) have only longed for one thing in nine long years…a woman to warm their beds.

Surviving a plane crash, wolves, avalanches, frozen lakes, and a harsh winter with three feral men is nothing compared to Aurelia’s hardest trial of all—finding herself.

Crucible is a dark romance with multiple love interests, and even better, she doesn’t have to choose between them. It is also the first in a duet and ends on a cliffhanger. Please refer to the trigger warnings before reading.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Keep Me In Your Heart by Monica Murphy

Keep Me In Your Heart by Monica Murphy is now live! 

Step into New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy’s mesmerizing and emotionally charged romance featuring Rowan Lancaster, the son of Crew and Wren from A Million Kisses in Your Lifetime.

This was supposed to be the best year of Rowan Lancaster’s life. Instead, thanks to a massive linebacker, his ankle is broken and his last football season at Lancaster Prep is done. Just like that. Now his days are dull and gray. Boring.

Except for the days that include Arabella Hartley Thomas.

She’s the girl everyone wants to be friends with. Beautiful but approachable. Stylish. Quirky. Yet she gets under Rowan’s skin like no other, and he doesn’t understand why. Sure, they flirt and banter and give each other grief. But now she invades his dreams and makes his heart pound so hard he’s sure she can see it.

Until suddenly, not only does Arabella see every part that he wishes he could hide, he realizes if he let himself, he could fall―hard.

Which is the same day he learns she might be leaving…for good.

I am absolutely loving this next generation of Lancaster kids!

Keep Me in Your Heart is Rowan Lancaster’s book and does not disappoint.

Rowan is a senior in high school and is ready to enjoy his last year. However, the one person who’s been a constant in his school life, Arabella Hartley, unintentionally mixes things up for him.

This is a true YA romance as these navigate new feelings, opening themselves up to one another and coming into their selves. There was alot of growth in each of them both individually and together. Rowan is a harmonious blend of his parents while Arabella strives to be anything like her parents. It’s their opposing upbringings that allows these two to fully appreciate one another.

Monica really does these characters justice but keeping them innocent at times but also showing maturity in some of their life experiences in their young lives. There were certain areas that I wanted fleshed out more but it did not deter my overall love for this story and these characters.

This new generation is becoming just an enjoyable as their parents’ series.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Beautiful Devil by Rachel Leigh


Beautiful Devil by Rachel Leigh is now live!


A Deliciously Sexy Ex-Boyfriend’s Rival, New Adult, Hockey Romance by USA Today and International Bestselling Author Rachel Leigh.

Two sports collide when a feisty sideline cheerleader meets her match in an arrogant hockey player who is more than just his bad boy reputation.

I fell for the wrong Devil…

Hayes Madden was never on my dance card. He’s an egotistical jock who plays for the Devil’s hockey team —not to mention, he’s my boyfriend’s biggest rival.

His sculpted abs and charm do nothing for me. Besides, I’m a cheerleader, not a puck bunny.

When a very graphic video of me and my ex is sent to the entire student roster at Rosewood-U, rumors quickly spread and, to my surprise, Hayes is my unlikely knight in shining armor.

Before long, I find myself falling for the hidden side of him he doesn’t let anyone else see.

It’s time for me to learn if this is all a strategic act of revenge against his nemesis, or if Hayes really is the beautiful devil I’ve fallen for.

This title couldn’t be more perfect for this story.

Rachel starts this story off with a bang and keeps the storyline moving throughout the entirety of the book.

I really enjoyed how readers could see the relationship building between Hayes & Brogan – we are just told but can truly see this play out.

Hayes was quite the surprise. Readers get to see him grow and learn so much.

Brogan is force to be reckoned with. I loved her strength and how she took control of the narrative.

Rachel wrote a terrific story that’s engaging with characters that had some great depth to them. I loo forward to more books from her.

Synopsis

It was the stuff rom-coms are made of—meet a girl in an airport bar.

Buy her a drink.

Get her number.

Then I smudged it. Literally.

A year later, I’m still kicking myself for letting her get away. But I have bigger things to worry about. Like running my family’s Fortune 500 company.

Until she shows up in my small town.

As my newest employee.

The spark is back in an instant.

And our plan to just be friends? Forget about it.

Especially once I’ve tasted her lips.

The pull between us is just as strong as it was a year ago. But thanks to the company’s no-fraternization policy, sneaking around only makes things hotter between us.

Margeaux is as focused and driven as I am, with goals and plans of her own.

I refuse to stand in the way.

But now all of that is on the line.

Turns out, our relationship isn’t as secret as we think.

Forcing us to choose—our hearts or our careers.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Text Appeal by Kylie Scott

Text Appeal by Kylie Scott is now live!

Love enters the chat in this hilarious, heartfelt rom com by New York Times bestselling and Audie award-winning author Kylie Scott.


Romance author Riley Cooper always dreamed of living by the water. But within a day of landing in the charming seaside town of Port Stewart to work on her latest book, she’s getting calls and texts for some dude on her new number. Weird ones. Sad ones. Sexy ones. Ones that make her want to meet him. For curiosity’s sake…if nothing else.

After years of being on-again, off-again with his high school sweetheart, all Connor wants is to move on with his life. If only everyone in Port Stewart would let him. What he needs is to be seen with someone else. So when fate puts him in the path of the new girl in town who got his old number, faking it together seems like the perfect solution.

Spending time with the gorgeous former prom king might be great research for Riley’s romance writing…if only she can keep her feelings in check. But the more she gets to know him, the harder she’s falling. Can their serendipitous meeting turn into something real and true?

Text Appeal is a really cute fake dating story.

The blurb is truly all you need to know before reading this one. Or hell, jump right into after reading this review with the knowledge that this is a funny fake dating story.

This story is only told from Riley’s POV, which did hurt the book a bit for me as I wanted to get a better understanding Connor and all his thoughts.

Kylie explains the ins and outs of this small town, Connor’s family and how Riley plays into everything so that does help readers get an idea of why things happen.

Overall, it’s a really entertaining story with great chemistry between characters that comes naturally.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Breaking Point by Fallon Greer

The Breaking Point by Fallon Greer is now live!

Grace Kensington has been my secret crush since we were kids.
Though she is definitely all grown up now.
Long blonde hair, big blue eyes, and curves that could bring even the toughest hockey player to his knees. She’s the full package, too–smart, funny, and as real as they come.
One might go as far as to say perfect. Except for one tiny detail: Grace is my coach’s daughter. 
And she just walked back into my life. Apparently she’s doing an internship for the team.
The last thing I should do is get close to her again. 
So the plan is to keep my distance.
But that plan flies out the window the very first time we run into each other…and I’m naked in the locker room.

Amazon US: https://bit.ly/3yUYxp6       

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/4dknk57

The Breaking Point is the second book in Fallon’s Bad Boys Club series. These books can easily be read as standalones and as they all feature a couple in each one. The characters overlap but just to show how they all interact with one another and add another layer to the story.

This story features Grace and Brady. Brady was a foster child who lived with Grace’s family when he was older and was in and out of the system. She harbored a crush on him and he knew how she felt but never allowed anything to go past that even though he too felt something more for her.

Now they are in their older years, she’s interning for the hockey team her dad coaches and Brady plays for that same team. However, neither have been in contact with one another for years and he was not aware that she was back.

I do enjoy how this story plays out. It shows some growth on both their parts, both individually and together. However, I did want to see Grace grow more outside of Brady. She definitely showed a more confident side, but I wanted to see her step outside hockey and focus on herself and wanted made her happy. The author showed a bit of that, but I wanted to see that developed more.

Overall, this is a great addition to this series of what I like to call spicy sports romance.

Kings of Sin meets Things We Left Behind in a gritty, heated romance from New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg.

Holden

They thought they’d managed to get rid of me once and for all. They thought I’d just forget what they did to my brother.

But I’m going to make sure that they never forget.

If only I can stop thinking about her.

Rowan

No one sees me. Behind my brother, I’m a ghost, managing the family business that he claims to run. But I’m tired of second fiddle. I’m tired of pretending. I’m going to take what’s mine.

The only problem? Well, he just came back to town.

I need book two NOW!!!

Rowan has always been underestimated and is out to prove there is more to her than people realize.

Holden has held onto a grudge for a very long time and is ready to exact his revenge. However, he did not plan on Rowan, or rather, who Rowan is today.

Kristy does a really great job of blending the tension and chemistry between Holden and Rowan as well as their opposing goals for Rowan’s family’s business.

I love that this was a page-turner from the start and kept that momentum til the very end. And then left me wanting more, so much more immediately. I cannot wait for book two.

Release Day Blitz & Review…End Game by Monica Murphy

End Game by Monica Murphy is now live!


In this fun, sexy college romance, a transfer student finds herself living in a house full of football players—and falling for the one she knows she shouldn’t want.

Everleigh

Transferring to UC Santa Mira is supposed to be my ultimate college experience—until housing falls through at the last minute. So when I overhear a group of guys complaining they need another roommate, I jump at the opportunity.

They’re just football players. Even if one of them makes me weak in the knees, it doesn’t mean anything unless I let it. And I won’t.

We want different things. Wanting each other doesn’t change that.

Nico

It’s my senior year and final season with the Santa Mira Dolphins. The last thing I need is a distraction, but that’s exactly what this girl is. Ever is too leggy, too gorgeous, too thoughtful—and a whole lot of too much that gets under my skin.

I guess I get under hers too. I can’t help myself.

We live together. That alone makes it a bad idea…but I never could resist a little trouble.

Monica starts this new series off well and just in time for football season!!

End Game is definitely more on the slow-burn romance with very low angst and honestly, it was the perfect combination for Nico and Everleigh.

Everleigh finds herself as the fourth roommate with three guys; three guys who happen to be known as the Kings around campus.

Nico is the typical playboy but struggles with his attraction to Everleigh. But she’s the new roommate and off-limits.

I really enjoyed how this one played out. While some parts felt a bit too long, it helped build that tension and low angst. But also add in the roommates and friends, this was nicely paced story and great build-up for the rest of the books in this series.

A great college, sports romance read. I am looking forward to more from this series.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Truly Madly Deeply by L.J. Shen

This old flame just might set them on fire.

Truly Madly Deeply, an all-new enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, standalone romance and the first book in the Forbidden Love Series from New York Times bestselling author L.J. Shen is now available!

Conceited, unattainable, and downright delicious, renowned Michelin-starred chef Ambrose Casablancas has one passion in life―food.

Women are a distraction, and he doesn’t do those. Especially Cal Litvin, his baby sister’s best friend. Her entire existence is a complication; she’s awkward, eccentric, infuriating…

And, much to his chagrin, hotter than his kitchen.

Ambrose has a lot on his plate: a new restaurant to open, a multimillion-dollar property deal to execute, and a violent stalker to tame.

Then Cal shows up at his doorstep, looking for both a job and salvation after their messy goodbye. His resolve, like his patience, is ebbing each day she works at his restaurant.

Because Cal is no longer a doe-eyed girl.

Now? She’s the woman he’ll do anything to conquer.

***

Quirky, compassionate ball of sunshine Calla Litvin can’t catch a break, and not just because she swore off running. Back in her hometown to nurse her mother’s broken heart after losing her father, she finds herself jobless, hopeless, and penniless. She hopes to rekindle her friendship with her former BFF, but Dylan is attached at the hip to her cruel brother―the one Cal’s been secretly crushing on since middle school.

Falling for the bad boy the second time around would be a mistake of gargantuan proportions.

Too bad she’s always been clumsy.

Oh, Ms Shen you definitely know how write very intricate and complicated characters and I love it so much!!

Truly Madly Deeply is quite possibly the best title for this book as nothing else will explain Row and Cal’s story. I had no idea what to expect from this story and honestly, Shen kept readers clinging to the pages from start to finish.

This story is a slow burn romance, and for good reason, but not the slow romance you think. Row and Cal’s story is definitely unique but very raw and real and readers get to really understand these from all sides.

Row and Cal intrigued me so much and not just together. I enjoyed getting to know each of them as individuals but also how they are together. I enjoyed their banter with one another, but also with their friends and family members.

Shen wrote a very well-rounded story and I enjoyed that as a reader I got to truly watch this all play out on these pages. I enjoyed the length of this story and found each scene and part was poignant in Row and Cal’s story.

Definitely a great read and one I highly recommend.

Casey Hughes is a struggling travel journalist desperate for a big break when she lands the assignment of a lifetime: hop on board Aurelia for its maiden voyage through paradise. While she’ll bask in the luxury cruise ship’s fine dining and complimentary spa treatments, her real mission is to snag an exclusive interview with Phillip Woodmont.

Casey and the elusive shipping heir have history. Once, they were nothing short of brutal enemies. Though the former brace-faced teen is now a suited-up CEO with devastating good looks, he makes it clear to Casey that he has no interest in forgetting their past.

The volatile grudge between them is as explosive as ever. More than once Casey is tempted to toss Phillip overboard, but for her work, she’ll have to swallow her pride. If it’s an apology he’s after, she’ll serve it up on a silver platter. If he wants her to walk the plank, she’ll salute with an aye, aye, Captain.

Casey can’t let him provoke her. She needs this interview. So if Phillip wants to play dirty, Casey will just have to play dirtier.

I can always count on Rachel delivering an entertaining yet sweet summer read.

I enjoyed this one more than I expected. I really liked the push and pull between Casey and Phillip. These two have a history and it’s not a good one.

Casey is at her wit’s end with her job and Phillip ends up being on the receiving end of her attitude when he refuses to give the interview she needs for her job.

Phillip is quite the character. I really enjoyed him and think he made this book all the more enjoyable for me.

Overall, a great summer romance read.

“Wade . . .” I say his name for the first time, to him, in years. It hurts, hearing my voice call out to him.

He stops and sets his shovel down. I didn’t expect him to walk toward me, but he does. Each step of his is deliberate and forceful, almost like he’s trying to leave his impression in the grass. He’s wearing his khaki cargo pants and from experience I know each pocket has something he’ll need today. A tool, twine, or trimmer line for the weed wacker. I’ve spent countless hours sitting on my parent’s front porch, watching him cut lawn with precision.

I’m out of breath when he comes face to face with me. He stands close. Close enough that we share the same air. Everything in my mind tells me to step back, to put a wall between us, but my heart sings at the closeness. I know I’ll never win the battle of hating him as long as we’re in the same town.

We stare at one another, taking each other in. His dark hair, brown eyes, and scruff all call to me, beg me to get lost in everything that is Wade Jenkins. I have loved this man for most of my life, and yet he’ll never be mine.
 
 

This is was a really sweet, second-chance southern romance. I have not read any of the other books in this series and this one can be easily read as a stand-alone.

Wade and Lennon were in love, a long time ago. Now they avoid each other at all costs. But one call changes everything for both of them.

I absolutely loved Wade; he made this book for me. Lennon frustrated me at times with her attitude, but it fit her character style. I enjoyed watching these two come back into each others lives again and navigating their new normal.

Another enjoyable read from Heidi.
