TEAGAN HUNTER is a Missouri-raised gal but currently lives in South Carolina with her Marine veteran husband, where she spends her days begging him for a cat. She survives off coffee, pizza, and sarcasm. When she’s not writing, you can find her binge-watching various TV shows, especially Supernatural and One Tree Hill.

Game Six loss costing my team the Cup? Check. Getting arrested and ruining my image? Check. Almost getting run over after my car breaks down? Oh, look–a hat trick.
My contract is up with the Carolina Comets this year, and I need to get it together if I want to stay with the team.
I need relaxation, not a relationship.

Harper is funny, smart, and doesn’t care about hockey.
I’m not supposed to be focusing on anything other than my career, yet I can’t get Harper off my mind.
I know I shouldn’t fall for her…but I think I already have.

This is Teagan’s best work to-date. I devoured this book in one sitting. I could not get enough of this book. Puck Shy is sports romantic and comedy and the first book in Teagan’s newest series. This book was everything. Teagan nailed the perfect blend of sports, romance and comedy in this one. I honestly think she has found her niche in writing. I loved every single word of this book. There isn’t one thing that I would change. I loved how the story played out from start to finish and all the nuances in between. The book flows with ease and the timeline is realistic and perfect. Add in the well-rounded cast and this book is truly perfection. The interactions between each of the characters just felt so real and authentic. The banter between Harper and Collin was spot on – it truly felt genuine. And don’t even get me started on the banter with the second characters – Gah, I loved it all!! The book was filled with lots of laughter but also held alot of true emotions. Puck Shy is an amazing read. It has everything romance readers wants. The chemistry and tension is perfection. The building relationship between Harper and Collin makes this book so relatable and amazing. You feel the authenticity of this read. Grab this one immediately!

Only One Regret is the fifth book in Natasha Madison’s Only One series but can easily be read as a standalone. I have not read any of the books in this series and was able to read this one with ease.
Erika and Cooper have been best friends for over 8 years. He was her first huge client and as his agent, he respected and loved her for everything she’s been able to help him achieve. Until one night, things get a bit blurred unintentionally.
I enjoyed watching Erika and Cooper’s story go from one of friendship to more. Natasha blended the sport aspect of this with the romance perfectly. The flow of this story was perfect; nothing happened too fast nor did things move too slow. I loved seeing how deep their friendship went and how easily it just became more. While it does complicate things, I love how all of it was handled.
Only One Regret is an uplifting romance story with very little drama and a lot of smiles. And there is a lot of steamy and hot scenes once they got together (sometimes felt too much) so be prepared to sweat through those. LOL
Natasha brings her readers another great romance story. I’m excited for the next book in this series.
Meet Natasha Madison
When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

Being the youngest member of her immediate family, and massive network of cousins, she’s always been sheltered. That ends now. After graduating with her masters in nursing, she’s ready to move out of her parents’ house, whether they support that decision or not. While wallowing in the guilt of that choice at the local bar, she bumps into the one guy she shouldn’t go near.
A player for her family’s team and her cousin’s best friend, Clark should come with a warning label. Not only because he’s the league’s number one playboy, but because he’s significantly older than her.
Unfortunately, they can’t seem to keep their hands off of each other. That initial night together leads to scorching glances across public parties, secret hookups in hidden places, and way more than either of their hearts bargained for.
But being with Clark means lying to those closest to them. When their secret is finally discovered, it sends the already skittish bad boy running for the hills. And although she claimed to want freedom with no strings, Anna can’t help but feel the sharp pull to be with him forever.
Clark Nyle swore a long time ago he’d never be committed to anyone.
After watching his mother ruin his father through adultery and abandonment, he knows that love is for masochists and he certainly isn’t one. Baseball and living life like every day’s a party are his only two passions.
Then his father dies, and he’s forced to question everything. It leads to a barstool, too many drinks, and into the backseat of his car with the one woman he should never have touched.
Now that he’s gotten a taste of Anna, he can’t stay away. Even if their secret affair comes with way too many consequences. Her family owns the team he plays for, not to mention his best friend would cut off his balls if he knew what they were up to. Plus, he doesn’t want anything long-term, and eventually he’s going to break her heart.
But the more time he spends with her, the more he seems to want a different future than the one he always planned on. Until they’re found out, and he’s forced to choose between his demons and the disapproval of his closest friends … or her.
Tagging Up is the final book in Carrie’s Callahan series and she ends it on a bang!
If you read any of the previous books in this series (you do not have to), then you will have gotten glimpses of Clark. But this book delves a lot deeper into him, his past and who he really is.
Anna is probably one of my favorite heroines from Carrie. She is very level headed, strong in her beliefs and love that she sticks to her guns. I love that she speaks her mind, but does it with maturity.
Clark and Anna have immediate sparks when they bump into one another one night at the bar. They both know of each other due to her family. But Anna has always been off-limits to Clark because of her family. But for one night, he can agree to a no-strings attached night of fun.
I love this story so much. Carrie delivers a beautiful story full of growth in so many aspects. Clark and Anna are two characters that were just made for one another. They truly balance one another and their connection is one-of-a-kind. And let me tell you, these two are off the charts hot!!
Another great book from Carrie Aarons!
Meet Carrie Aarons
Author of romance novels such as Fool Me Twice and Love at First Fight, Carrie Aarons writes books that are just as swoon-worthy as they are sarcastic. A former journalist, she prefers the love stories of her imagination, and the athleisure dress code, much better.
When she isn’t writing, Carrie is busy binging reality TV, having a love/hate relationship with cardio, and trying not to burn dinner. She’s a Jersey girl living in Texas with her husband, daughter, son, and Great Dane/Lab rescue.
Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods . . . and little old me, Winnie Berlin.
Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it’s not. It’s my reality.
It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble.
Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere. Soaking wet, irritated, and in desperate need of a hot shower, I knocked on the door for help only to be greeted by five boisterous, burly, and insanely attractive men.
Not just men.
Professional hockey players.
I hit the motherload of fantasies, right? Wrong.
Because as it turns out, one of them is my ex-boyfriend’s half-brother. And when I end up crashing in their spare bedroom for the night, things take a very unexpected turn.
I’m not sure any amount of survival skills can protect my heart from Vancouver Agitators star goalie, Pacey Lawes. But as long as we kiss and don’t tell, maybe everything will be okay . . .

All Anna Callahan wants is her independence.
Being the youngest member of her immediate family, and massive network of cousins, she’s always been sheltered. That ends now.

I can’t seem to keep my hands off her. No matter what I try, I’m drawn to her. My hands need to stroke her. I need that connection.
And while we were in the gym, there was a hell of a lot more I wanted to do with her, and it didn’t involve lifting weights. I wanted to lie down across the bench and pin her there while I found out what her lips tasted like. Push her up against the mirror and watch her face as I slowly peeled down her bike shorts to expose that beautiful ass of hers. I wanted to make her know what it feels like to be with a real man. A man who would take care of her.
My will is slipping with her. I can feel it, especially the frustration I felt when she suggested asking one of the other guys to take her into town.
Screw that.
I would’ve been pissed.
She thinks she’s taking up too much of my time, when really, I want more of hers. And I want to be the one who shows her the town of Banff. I want to see her face light up when she takes in the picturesque views. Not Eli . . . because I know that’s who would probably take her if she asked.
Dressed in a pair of navy-blue chino shorts and a simple white T-shirt, I head down the hallway, slipping past her door and into the main living space. The boys are gathered at the table, plates of eggs in front of them, Stephan at the helm in the kitchen.
The chatter at the table slowly dies out as I walk by them, and I know I’m about to get shit because normally I wouldn’t be dressed like this. If Winnie weren’t here, we’d all be in a pair of athletic shorts and no shirt, but that’s not the case.

About the Author:
USA Today Bestselling Author, wife, adoptive mother, and peanut butter lover. Author of romantic comedies and contemporary romance, Meghan Quinn brings readers the perfect combination of heart, humor, and heat in every book.
Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone’s face, then I’ve done my job.
I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob.
If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies.
I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I’ll love you forever.
He’s a player. I’m a virgin. Yet, I can’t seem to stop myself.
The Rulebreaker by Claire Contreras is now live!
Maverick Cruz and I started off as pen pals and became besties when we went to the same sports camp at age twelve.
He rooted for me at my soccer games. I cheered for him at his hockey tournaments.
Through heartbreaks, new relationships, and failed friendships, we knew we could always count on each other.
That’s why no one is more surprised–or panicked– than I am when I start to develop different feelings for him. But Instead of telling him the truth, I agree to help him find a girlfriend.
Someone who is not me.
Someone who is so opposite of me that I have to make a list for the charade. The problem is, he wants to practice his dating skills with me. The corny pickup lines, the hand-holding, the door opening, the staring.
Before this, I thought sharing a house with him was an excellent idea. Who wouldn’t want to room with their best friend? Now, the close proximity is killing me. What’s worse is that I can’t stop looking at him like he’s a Greek god, and he can’t stop seeing me as his virginal little sister. Still, I push it aside, until one night, when he’s lying beside me in bed and I’m the one who forgets the rules and crosses the line between friends and something more.
It’s a horrible idea. He’s a player. I’m a virgin. Yet, I can’t seem to stop myself.
New item on my list: DO NOT FALL FOR YOUR BEST FRIEND.

The Rulebreaker is Claire’s next sports romance that focuses on Maverick and Rocky. I love Claire’s ability to blend the sports aspects beautifully with the romance and deliver an entertaining read. Mav & Rocky are best friends and are both very dedicated to their sports. They’ve been extremely supportive of each other and always there for another with everything else. Now that they’re older and in college, things are starting to blur, but neither wants to ruin their friendship. I really enjoyed how this story played out. Mav & Rocky are both mature college students and Claire stays true to that. She doesn’t sacrifice characteristic changes to fit a particular narrative to develop the story. The whole plot plays out naturally and real. I really enjoy Claire’s writing style. I can sense she pulls alot from her own experience and that just adds another layer to the stories. It also makes them more authentic and real. The Rulebreaker is another great sports romance from Claire that I’d highly recommend.
