Release Day Blitz & Review…Puck Pact by Kristen Granata

by Courtney

PUCK PACT

Kristen Granata

Release Date: March 21

Blurb:

I’ve never had a problem convincing a man to take me home for a night of fun.

Until I meet Alexander Krum.

He leaves me wanting more at the end of every encounter. Despite our insane attraction to one another, we couldn’t be more opposite.

He wants to take me on a date.

I want to head straight to his bedroom.

He believes in romance.

I know men in romance books don’t really exist.

He always wants to help.

I can take care of myself.

But then he comes to me with a proposition: A marriage arrangement to save his family’s villa. His substantial offer has me overlooking our differences and saying “I do.”

There is only one problem…he’s been hiding a secret from the media for the last four years. Pretending to be a wife is one thing, but this? I’m the last person he should want in this role.

Yet I can’t bring myself to walk away. The incentive is too great, and when it’s over, I will have my dream.

And it will be over. I’m not destined for happily ever after’s—no matter how real this charade is starting to feel.

Available in KU

This is my first read by Kristen but definitely won’t be my last.

Puck Pact is a full standalone featuring Aarya and Alexander.

Araya is a strongly independent and fierce woman who relies on no-one. She trusts no-one and lives life to the fullest and her number one love is her art goals.

Alexander is the captain of his hockey team but keeps alot close to his chest. He has his own secrets and while he loves fiercely, he doesn’t let many people in.

I absolutely loved watching these two knock down one another’s walls. The natural progression of their story was perfect and the pacing of this book was phenomenal. I loved watching each of them grow in different ways and realize things about themselves.

Kristen wrote an emotional and spicy sports romance. Alexander is every woman’s fictional dream man and Aarya is every woman’s best friend. I absolutely loved these two.

This is a definite must read!

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Veiled Kingdom by Holly Renee

by Courtney

The Veiled Kingdom by Holly Renee is now live!

From USA Today Bestselling Author Holly Renee, author of the Stars and Shadows series, comes a scorching new fantasy romance that ignites the pages with relentless danger, forbidden passion, and the intoxicating allure of enemies to lovers.

Fleeing my father’s cruelty, the wicked king who robbed me of a future, I face death in the streets, caught between a rebellion and a tyrant’s reign.

Captured by those sworn to kill me, the rebels remain blind to my true identity-the missing daughter of the despised king. Faced with an impossible choice, I stand before them: join the rebels or face their blades.

Yet, Dacre, the son of the ruthless rebellion commander, becomes torn between suspicion and a desire that mirrors my own. He allows no one to touch me, tries to protect me, yet threatens me at every turn.

As secrets are weaved beyond our hidden realm, a fierce battle unfolds within me. As I get closer to the rebels, and their cause, my loyalty to my kingdom clashes with my undeniable devotion to Dacre and the burning connection between us.

In a world where love and hate are two edges of the same blade, I find myself caught in a delicate dance between forbidden desire and my looming destiny.

The Veiled Kingdom is a nice start to a new series, The Veiled Kingdom.

This is a fantasy romance that starts off a bit slow for us fantasy readers but still has the right touch to keep you intrigued and turning the pages. There was just something in this book that kept me glued to its pages and wanting to know what would happen.

I enjoyed the banter and relationship building between each of the characters. The story is told from both Nyra and Dacre’s POVs and that truly helps add another layer to this story. It’s very well written and the flow is perfect for what needs to happen and build up the plot intensity.

My biggest issue and the only reason I did not rate this book 5 stars was the lack of world building. A huge part of a fantasy romance is the world building and letting readers visualize this fantastic world and all the ins and outs of the people who inhabit it and their abilities. While there are some descriptions, there is alot missing that would give this book that perfect additional layer.

Overall, I really did enjoy this book and cannot wait to see what happens next with Nyra, Dacre and the impasse that they are currently at.

Meet Holly

Release Day Blitz & Review…Walk of Shame by Avery Flynn

by Courtney

Walk of Shame by Avery Flynn is now live!

One night. No strings. And a really good puck.

Five years ago, Astrid O’Malley experienced the ultimate in public humiliation. Being dumped at the altar by her childhood sweetheart was horrifying enough. That fact that he was a professional hockey goalie and her dad was his coach? It was all anyone in sports could talk about.

Eff hockey. Eff goalies.

These days, Astrid lives a life (mostly) free of hockey and free to pursue whoever she wants with exactly zero shame in her game. Like tonight’s hook-up. This guy’s nailed the lumberjack aesthetic perfectly. Especially when he has the stamina and creativity to back it up.

Because the rule is: it’s one night only. Which is gonna be a problem because she’s just discovered he lives in the apartment upstairs.

And he’s joined her dad’s team. As the goalie coach. To train her ex.

Now Astrid is in some kind of hockey hell–filled with her ex, her family, and the best sex of her life. And somehow she’s been roped back onto the team.

Puck my life.

Walk of Shame was right down the middle ok for me.

The blurb intrigued me and the beginning of the story kept me hooked. However, at one point, things just sort of went flat for me. And the ending felt rushed and unrealistic. And the epilogue – that was quite the shocking revelation.

I enjoyed how Astrid and Cal navigated their relationship. I did want to see more of an emotional attachment between them and not just the physical one. But let me tell you, those spicy scenes were done well.

Overall, it was an ok read for me.

Meet Avery

USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling romance author Avery Flynn has three slightly-wild children, loves a hockey-addicted husband and is desperately hoping someone invents the coffee IV drip. She lives outside of Washington DC with her family, Dwight the cat, and a pack of five dogs all named after food. If she’s not reading romance or binging reality TV, she’s most definitely plotting to take over the world so she can banish Crocs from existence. Also, if you figure out how to send Oreos through the Internet, she’ll be your best friend for life.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Love You Fight For by Brit Benson

by Courtney

THE LOVE YOU FIGHT FOR

Brit Benson

Release Date: March 15

Blurb:

The mask she wears for the world is flawless.
But I want the mess that she hides underneath.

Samantha Harper is untouchable.

She’s the closest thing we have to royalty in my small town.
Daughter of a senator.
Richer than sin.
Classy, elegant, and
Ice cold.

She’s my polar opposite.
And unfortunately,
She’s exactly my type.

Too bad royalty doesn’t fraternize with peasants.

Until one night,
Samantha Harper finds herself at my mercy,
and the temptation to dirty up her flawless facade is too great.

When her perfect mask slips,
It’s not an ice princess I find beneath,
But a warrior in war-torn armor.
A snake in queen’s clothing.

All it takes is one night, and I’m determined.
She will never have to fight another battle alone.

***

The Love You Fight For is the third book in the Next Life world.
It has a guaranteed HEA.
While The Love You Fight For can be read as a standalone, it is recommended that you first read the Next Life duet to fully appreciate the story.

A detailed list of Content Warnings can be found on the author’s website.

Available in KU

I did not read the first two books in this series and I did not once feel lost or misunderstand the bonds between every one of these characters. I was fully engrossed and enamored by these characters and knowing that if I read the first two books would make me fully appreciate the story – I just can’t comprehend that because I absolutely more than fully appreciated this story. But I did buy the first two books just so I could read about Macon and Lennon’s story.

“I want a true north kind of love.”

The Love You Fight For was everything I had not realized I needed right now. From Sam’s fierce and resolute determination to fight her own battles to Chris’s unwavering protectiveness and loyalty to Sam – my heart and soul were right there with these two through the entire book.

“Let me be your peace.”

Brit truly knows how to well developed characters with many facets to them all the while delivering a plot that keeps readers right at the edge the whole time. Brit does a phenomenal job of intertwining the romance with the suspense of this story and keeping things engaging.

“What better way to take down dangerous men than with the very monster they created.”

I cannot express how much I loved this book and how it just brought out every emotion in me and just fully immersed me in the story and these characters’ lives. Definitely a top 2024 read for me.

Meet Brit Benson:

Brit Benson writes real, relatable romance. She likes outspoken, independent heroines, dirty talking, love-struck heroes, and plots that get you right in the feels.

Brit would almost always rather be reading or writing. When she’s not dreaming up her next swoony book boyfriend and fierce book bestie, she’s getting lost in someone else’s fictional world. When she’s not doing that, she’s probably marathoning a Netflix series or wandering aimlessly up and down the aisles in Homegoods, sniffing candles and touching things she’ll never buy.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Kings of Jupiter by Nacole Stayton

by Courtney

KINGS OF JUPITER

Nacole Stayton

Release Date: March 14

Blurb:

In an industry dominated by men, Sophia Rose, an elite tattooist, earned her reputation by owning Rose & Lace Ink Emporium, an all-female staffed studio.

Her golden rule was simple. Never date a client. That no-strings-attached-attitude kept her evenings busy, and her heart stagnant.

That is until the zaniest night of tattooing in her career befell…

When propositioned with an offer that any entrepreneur would be foolish to decline, Sophia finds herself blinded by the stardom and mayhem that the Kings of Jupiter encompass.

With Sophia as their muse, lust, and lyrics blur like the lines of the pavement beneath the tour bus.

For Mazen Wilde, Oliver Collins and Cannon Rhodes, creating music was as easy as taking a breath.

But all great songs do come to an end…

Intended for fans of Tate James, Lily Gold and Emily Rath. Kings of Jupiter is a duet that WILL end on an enthralling cliffhanger. This is a rock star reverse harem, meaning our heroine has three band boyfriends. Swords will cross…

BRILLIANT!! Parker and LJ have once again given readers another phenomenal fairytale retelling.

My Dark Desire was so much more than I anticipated and I loved every bit of this story.

The banter, not just between Farrow and Zach, but between all the guys, between Farrow and her ladies – the dialogue overall was perfection. Loved it!!

I had not anticipated to laugh so much with this book. It was just another bonus to this very well written and perfectly paced story

I highly enjoyed all the sub-plots within this book and how everything just blended together wonderfully and kept readers fully engaged from start to finish.

My review is purposely devoid of any story details because you must read this without any more knowledge than the blurb. It’s so much enjoyable when you experience the story just like I did.

Another great story from these two! I am looking forward to Oliver’s story and how that one will play out.

Meet L.J. Shen

L.J. Shen is a Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Washington Post, and #1 Amazon bestselling author of contemporary, new adult, and young adult romance. Her books have been translated in over twenty different countries, and she hopes to visit all of them.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Blitz by Devney Perry

by Courtney

Blitz by Devney Perry is now live!

A forbidden, small town, sports romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Devney Perry.

A coach. A student. The rules were concrete. We broke them anyway.

The night I met Toren Greely was the night I learned how to lie. He was a Treasure State football coach. I was the star of the volleyball team. Coaches and students were forbidden. My future was on the line, so I told myself it was only one night.

That was the first lie. They got easier to tell after that. The lines blurred. The boundaries shifted. Our relationship became a game of its own.

A chaste smile. A knowing glance. A veiled touch or a hushed kiss. We hid in plain sight. We were invincible. Or so we thought. Neither of us saw the blitz coming until it was too late.

Game over. The night I left Toren Greely was the night I learned how to lose.

A forbidden romance? I’m in! A coach/player forbidden romance? HELL YES!!

Blitz is the second book in Devney’s Treasure State Wildcats series and can be read as a complete standalone.

I had been looking forward to Toren’s book after meeting him in Coach and Devney delivered exactly what I wanted.

Toren and Jennsyn’s story started out with the best bang and flowed wonderfully from there. The angst that comes with a forbidden college romance was delivered perfectly. I enjoyed how their sports were intertwined into the story and helped add to their tension.

Overall, Blitz played out beautifully. I was not a big fan of the ending but loved that everything came full circle.

Meet Devney

Release Day Blitz & Review…Hart of Redemption by S.B. Alexander

by Courtney

HART OF REDEMPTION

S.B. Alexander

Release Date: March 7

Darkness never looked so bright.

Duke Hart built an empire in the seedy underworld of Boston. Despite his success, he’s always kept his family at arm’s length to protect them from his dangerous lifestyle. But he’s ready to call it quits and hand over the reins to his partner until his sister Grace gets caught in the crossfire of a brutal war between rival gangs and the cartel.

Now Duke has no choice but to stay and fight. He abandoned Grace once. He’ll die before he’ll let her suffer again.

After five years with the bureau, FBI Agent Fallyn Williams finally has an opportunity she’s been waiting for. If she can bring in the notorious Duke Hart, then more doors will open for her as she climbs the corporate ladder to hopefully one day become the director—a role she’s dreamed about since her father held that prestigious position.

But in the treacherous expanse where gang wars and cartel thrive, Fallyn isn’t prepared for the cunning and deadly Duke Hart. As he worms his way into her heart, making her question everything she’s ever believed in, she finds herself caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse.

With the stakes higher than ever, both Duke and Fallyn are determined to come out on top. But in a world where nothing is as it seems, success may come at a deadly cost.

Hart of Redemption is a stand-alone, enemies to lovers romantic suspense filled with an alpha hero, feisty heroine, action, intrigue, off-the-charts steamy times, and a happily ever after.

Well, hot damn!

I truly had no expectations going into this book. I have not read the previous two books and didn’t even read the blurb before reading this. The cover caught my eye and I love Susan’s writing, so I just wanted to read it. LOL

Hart of Redemption moves at a fast pace and contains lots of drama and action that will keep readers right at the edge of their seats the entire time. But what truly rocked me was Duke and the love he had for his family. He put them first, no matter what; his loyalty is unmatched.

Duke and Fallyn are both complex characters and watching things explode between them as the story progresses was just another great layer to this fantastic story. Their chemistry is undeniable and that push and pull between because neither wanted to act on their feelings was like adding fuel to an already raging fire. LOVED IT!!!

I could go on and on about this book – it is that damn good. Susan wrote a phenomenal book and I can’t wait to read the first two.

Meet S.B. Alexander:

I’m Susan Alexander, and you’ll find my books under S.B. Alexander. I’m an independent author with over 20 titles to date. I write paranormal, new adult, and sweet romances that feature hot heroes stealing hearts.

In between writing, I spend time with my soul mate of 21 years who got a bad deal in life when he was diagnosed with ALS five years ago. Since then, our journey has taken us down a path we’d never imagined. Despite that, we’ve been making the best of life, laughing, smiling, and doing what we can together.

Through all the madness, writing and publishing has been a great outlet for me. In addition, I have an amazing tribe of family, friends, readers, fans, and so many others who support me. I truly have an angel on my shoulder. My mantra is make the best of life because it’s too darn short.

I love to hear from readers and fans.

Ride, die, and bleed for speed.

Each member of this club follows that singular rule.

Everything else is fair game.

Just as lethal on, as I am off the track, I’m vying for the number one spot in the illegal street races against our rivals.

Then, a sweet-smelling bombshell sinks her sharp, dangerous claws into my skin before walking away from me, setting off a chain of events that I have no intention of controlling.

All I want is her.

But hate surrounds her, infects her, causes her to act against her nature.

She thinks she can run from me, but it’s impossible. I will always find her.

And I will stop at nothing to make her mine.

Just take all my money every time these ladies release a book!

GAH!! Psycho Hate is the first book in their newest MC series and they are not holding back.

I feel in love with their story telling after their The Reapers Duet and they just keep on surprising me. I truly want to sit down and just pick their brains on how their writing process.

The chemistry between Mac and Psycho (Aleko) is perfection – chef’s kiss. But what I love most was the push and pull between them – it burned these pages. These two are what I love in romance.

These two ladies know how to deliver not just an amazing story, but they know how to create an entire series with phenomenal supporting characters (that we all know will get books of their own) to keep readers enticed and on their toes.

If you love MC romances, grab this one now.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne

by Courtney

Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne is now live!

No one knows what happens up at Midnight Manor.

The home of the Voss brothers sits like a sentinel looking down on our small town, remaining a mystery. The four brooding billionaires rarely leave the confines of the iron gates, fueling rumors that have existed for decades.

When my father dies, all the security I’ve known is ripped away, forcing me to come face to face with the eldest brother, Asher Voss. His outward beauty is just as I’d heard—it belies a predatory nature, irresistibly drawing me in.

A bargain is made, and I have no choice but to live in the shadowy confines of his gothic manor to save my family. As time passes, it becomes harder and harder to deny our attraction.

Asher Voss might be too old for me, and he’s definitely cursed by his own demons, but an inferno of passion between us threatens to either consume or destroy us both.

MOONLIT THORNS is a dark, contemporary romance, Beauty and the Beast retelling.

Great start to this new series! These two authors set the stage for what is to come in this series and they did it wonderfully.

Moonlit Thorns is a unique retelling of the fairytale, Beauty and the Beast. I have read quite a few fairy tale retellings and this is definitely one of my favorites.

The story between Asher and Annabelle plays out so natural and beautifully. I enjoyed that readers are kept on their toes with how these two reacted to one another each time they are thrust together.

Yes, this a dark romance with BDSM, but it’s on the lighter side of that. I know dark readers will still enjoy the overall vibe that P. Rayne brings to this story, but if readers who aren’t into super dark reads or the elements of BDSM, this is definitely on the lighter side and would be a great “taste” to see if it’s to your liking.

P. Rayne does a great job of creating this town and the vibes around the Voss family and their history. I love all the nuances they have added in and giving hints at what is to come with each brother. The interactions between everyone was great and just added another layer to the story.

I already know that I am going to thoroughly enjoy this series and the Voss brothers very much.
