Cover Reveal…The Homemaker by Jewel E. Ann

by Courtney

Jewel E. Ann has revealed the cover for The Homemaker!

Releasing: September 30, 2025

Cover Designer: Boja99designs

Photographer: Anna Krueger

A romance inspired by TS “Fortnight”

I was hers, but she was never mine.

Alice Yates is the hired “homemaker” for the Morrisons, an affluent couple in Minneapolis. For Alice, it’s a dream job to dress up like a 1950s housewife and read romance novels to Mr. Morrison before his afternoon nap.

But when the Morrisons’ only daughter returns home for the summer with her fiancé, Alice comes face- to-face with her shattered past—the only threat to her perfect life.

Eight years earlier, vacation rental owner Murphy Paddon had an impeccable vinyl record collection and did the most irresistible thing before kissing Alice, earning him a five-star rating. Their fortnight love affair was life-altering and ended tragically.

Murphy doesn’t know if Alice remembers him or whether he should tell his fiancée that the hired-help living in the guesthouse is the woman who irreparably broke his heart. He needs closure, but will the lingering glances and silent yearning lead to the end or just the beginning?

Cover Reveal…Betrayed in the Darkness by Ashley Elizabeth

by Courtney

Ashley Elizabeth has revealed the cover for Betrayed in the Dark!

Releasing October 21, 2025

Betrayed.
With one letter, that’s what he did to me,
irrevocably splitting my heart down the middle, causing everything we once shared in secret to become nothing more than a distant memory.
One I try desperately to forget.
So, imagine my shock when my brothers stood before me to tell me who my new bodyguard would be while I fought back tears, pretending my heart had never belonged to him.
And only him.
Especially since another man’s ring now rests on my finger.
Yet, every moment spent in his presence makes it harder to stay away.
Every secret embrace makes it nearly impossible to remember why I should hate him.
Even though I never could.
But as lines get crossed and feelings threaten to unravel everything,
there’s one thing I must remind myself:
This wedding is happening, whether I want it to or not.
There’s just one problem.
The same man who is doing everything in his power to stop me from walking down the aisle is the one I’m ultimately doing it all for:
Eli Lyon.

Photographer: Regina Wamba

Cover Designer: Emily Wittig

Models: Hannah Peltier and Jered Sternaman

An angsty, love triangle romance from bestselling author, Micalea Smeltzer

He was my first love, but it doesn’t mean he’s my last.

I fell in love with Spencer when I was only fifteen. He was the sun, the moon, and the stars in my young eyes. But our lives were turned upside down when I got pregnant. A baby wasn’t part of the plan. Neither was him becoming one of Hollywood’s hottest young actors. Suddenly, he wasn’t mine anymore. He belonged to the world and I was his past and just the girl he had a child with.

He’s my present, but it doesn’t mean he’s my future.

I didn’t expect Jameson, but life works in mysterious ways, giving you what you need when you least expect it. He picked up the pieces of myself that were shattered in the aftermath of Spencer. I’m older now, not blinded with stars in my eyes like I once was. Jameson is my safe harbor in all of life’s storms.

But just like the twinkling stars in the sky, love soars, changes and burns with the passage of time.

When my past returns to collide with my present, only my forever love will remain…

Willow Adams is hired to help him adjust to being a dad—a steady, grounded nanny with a soft heart and a quiet strength he can’t ignore. She’s nothing like the women he’s used to. And maybe that’s exactly why he can’t stay away.

What starts as a temporary arrangement turns into something deeper, just as a custody battle threatens to take it all away. Rocket never wanted to be a father. But now? He’ll fight like hell—for the adorable little girl who changed everything, and the unexpected woman he never saw coming.

He’s her curse, but she’s his salvation, and he’ll do anything to keep the ones he loves safe.

Rebellious ballerina Luna Bordeaux may be the darling of the New Orleans elite, but she’s destined to dance in her parents’ shadows. Her twenty-second birthday was supposed to be her escape.

Cover Reveal…Bend the Pucking Rules by Rachel Leigh

by Courtney

Rachel Leigh has revealed the covers for Bend The Pucking Rules!

Releasing: July 18, 2025

Bend The Pucking Rules is the second book in the sexy and suspenseful Ice Lords Series. A why-choose, dark college hockey romance.

I know too much and now, I’m paying the price.

One secret shattered my world.

Three boys wrecked my life.

And one of them just might own my heart—if only he could remember.

As Callan fights to piece together the memories we shared and the time we lost, I’m caught in the crossfire of rival teams, bitter betrayals, and players who would love nothing more than to watch me fall.

Someone is out there.

Whispering. Watching. Waiting.

And if I want to survive, I’ll have to trust the very people who broke me.

Aidric. Sebastian.

Maybe even Callan.

Sebastian says he hates me.

But hate doesn’t burn this hot.

I see it in his eyes. I feel it every time he looks at me.

I’m just not sure if his fire is meant to save me, or burn me.

When Callan finally remembers, will it be enough to put us back together?

Or will the bond I’m building with his best friend tear us all apart?

They say you can’t have the best of both worlds.

But I’m beginning to realize, the three of us were never meant to live by the rules.

Cover Reveal…Unbroken by Jane Henry

Jane Henry has revealed the cover for Unbroken!

Releasing: July 11, 2025

Cover Designer: The Book Brander Boutique

Photographer: Wander Aguiar

Model: Lucas Loyola

A dark single dad, forbidden, Bratva romance from USA Today Bestselling author Jane Henry

Vadka Dragunov—Bratva executioner, cold-blooded strategist… and my dead sister’s husband.

The man who built his empire in blood and protected it with silence. The man with a stare that holds me hostage—and a voice that cuts straight through me. I’ve avoided him, and the way he makes me feel, as I’ve wallowed in my own grief following my sister’s death.

But now there’s no escape. I’m living in his world. I’ve been targeted. The Irish want war. And the only safe place left is under his watch… or under him.

He’s a single father now—haunted, vengeful, and dangerous. A man who reads bedtime stories with the same blood thirsty eyes that promise death and retribution. The man who would raze the world to keep his son safe.

He thinks I’m reckless, chaotic, unpredictable. I was only a child when we first met. But he doesn’t see me as one anymore.

I see what he hides beneath all that control—the obsession simmering just below the surface. The way he watches me like he wants to equally destroy and devour me.

And now the same loss that tore us apart is now pulling us together.

I wasn’t supposed to end up in his bed.

But the Bratva is splintering. The Irish want blood.

And I’m spiraling – holding a secret that could end it all while falling for the man I can’t have.

Is there a future for Vadka and me, or will the secrets between us cause another tragedy?

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?
