Release Day Blitz & Review…So Wrong by Abby Millsaps

So Wrong by Abby Millsaps is now live!

No wrong moves.

Those were the words the first boy I ever loved whispered in my ear on graduation weekend.

Naively, I believed him. Now those three little words feel like a bad omen I can’t escape.

Every move I’ve made since I returned to South Chapel hurts my ex-boyfriend, Greedy. But it’s for his benefit. That’s what I tell myself. Intentionally hurting him is for the best.

It has to be. I said goodbye to the possibility of forever with him the moment my mom and his dad “introduced us” at their engagement dinner.

Three years have passed, but that doesn’t matter to Greedy. He’s hell-bent on making sure I remember it all.

On my darkest nights, the memories win. Since his bedroom is just two doors down, he’s the anchor I seek when it all feels like too much.

But now Greedy’s best friend is back in town, and he and I are “dating” to get his meddling mother off his back. Not only is Levi my new fake boyfriend, but he’s also our new roommate, too.

No wrong moves, Greedy assured me years ago.

What if there are no right moves either?

So Wrong is the first book in the Boys of South Chapel series. It is a steamy second chance, why choose romance. A full list of tropes and triggers can be found on the author’s website.

So Wrong is the first book in Abby’s newest series, Boys of South Chapel. It’s also the first book I have read by this author and she definitely earned herself another reader.

This book starts off in the present but as the story progresses, we are given glimpses of the past that help explain how they end up where they are in the present.

I love how the story plays out as it keeps readers intrigued and turning the pages. There isn’t alot of growth in the characters, even though three years has passed between the past and present and while that doesn’t hurt the story, I expected some maturity from them.

Overall, I am captivated by the story telling and the characters. Abby leaves readers on quite the cliffy, but thankfully we don’t have to wait long for the second book.

Meet Abby

Abby Millsaps is an author and storyteller who’s been obsessed with writing romance since middle school. In eighth grade, she failed to qualify for the Power of the Pen State Championships because all her submissions contained the same theme: young people falling in love. #LookAtHerNow

She’s best known for writing unapologetically angsty romance that causes emotional damage for her readers. Abby prides herself in writing authentic characters while weaving mental health, chronic illness, and neurodiverse representation into the fabric of her stories.

Abby met her husband at a house party the summer before her freshman year of college. He had a secret pizza stashed in the trunk of his car that he was saving for a midnight snack–how was she supposed to resist that level of golden retriever energy and preparedness? When Abby isn’t writing, she’s reading, traveling, and raising her three daughters.

Cover Reveal…Over the Limit by K. Bromberg

K. Bromberg has revealed the gorgeous covers for Over The Limit!

Releasing: June 13, 2024

Cover Design: Ink and Laurel

A forbidden, Formula 1 romance from New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg.

You don’t mess around with a teammate’s ex. Ever. But that’s easier said than done when it comes to Blair Carmichael. She’s sexy, intelligent, gorgeous, and one hundred percent off-limits.

And I’ve never fallen harder.

But I can’t touch (when I most definitely want to).

My team’s success and my chance at a new contract for next season depend on me keeping my hands on the wheel. And off her curves.

As the season progresses, we secretly steal as much time as we can together—in hotel rooms, after races, anywhere we can’t be found out. A real romance out in the open would risk her job in the industry, her reputation, and my image–not to mention my strained relationship with my teammate.

I’ve lived my whole life with one mantra. Team first. What I want outside of my racing career hasn’t factored in.

Until now.

Until Blair.

She deserves the world and I plan on giving it to her. Even if I have to walk away from the biggest contract of my career.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Learn Your Lesson by Kandi Steiner

Learn Your Lesson by Kandi Steiner is now live!

My mother only wanted me to learn one lesson growing up…

Men are trash.

Her father left her, and then my father left us. Being raised by her and my grandmother, I was surrounded by the reminder to be independent and guard my heart.

After my one and only experience with a boy in college fell flatter than a pancake, I realized they were right — and I was content to live the life of a twenty-six-year-old cat lady.

Until Will Perry blew my quiet world to smithereens.

Starting goalie for the Tampa Bay Ospreys and the kind of hot that scrambles your brain, all I was ever supposed to be to him was his daughter’s kindergarten teacher. Then, in a twist of events, his temporary nanny.

But temporary turns to permanent, and when I move into his pool house, everything changes.

He’s impossibly grumpy and focused on only two things: hockey, and taking care of his daughter. I’m only focused on using this new income to pay back my student loans.

But in that house, I feel his heated gaze beneath that permanent scowl, the way it lingers and warms my skin. And though I know my mother would lose her mind if she knew, my dreams have become midnight fantasies about my long-haired, muscle-lined mystery of a boss.

When the tension becomes too much, we break, and we make a deal.

He still needs a nanny. I still need a paycheck and for my matriarchy to not disown me. But Will agrees to teach me everything I’ve always wanted to learn, and I’m all too eager to be his student.

I can do this. I’m a grown woman. I can explore my sexuality with the hottest goalie on earth and still remain one-hundred percent professional. And I can definitely do it all without catching feelings.

I have to.

Otherwise, I’ll end up heartbroken in my mother’s arms while she shakes her head and asks me if I’ll ever learn my lesson.

Learn Your Lesson was everything I expected, and more!!

Will Perry (Daddy P) and Chloe’s story is an emotional one in so many ways. This was the best combination of sweet and sugary with some yummy spice to keep things flowing perfectly.

Kandi wrote a great story that her characters carried very well. The pacing was perfect and each moment flowed wonderfully into the next.

I devoured this book and could not wait to see how things transpire between them. I loved seeing the growth in both Will and Chloe as things progressed. They challenged one another in ways they did not expect and that just added to their chemistry.

LYL is another perfection addition to this series and one that readers will thoroughly enjoy.

Meet Kandi

Kandi Steiner is a #1 Amazon Bestselling Author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tennessee. Best known for writing “emotional rollercoaster” stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you’re a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she’s your gal.

An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women’s Studies. Her love for writing started at the ripe age of 10, and in 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.”

She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.

When Kandi isn’t writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, planning her next adventure, or pole dancing (yes, you read that right). She enjoys live music, traveling, hiking, yoga, playing with her fur babies and soaking up the sweetness of life.

Cover Reveal…When We Lied by Claire Contreras

Claire Contreras has revealed the gorgeous cover for When We Lied!

Releasing: May 2, 2024

A brand new hockey romance from New York Times Bestselling Author Claire Contreras set in the same world as Until I Get You…

Finneas Alexander Barlow is a walking thirst trap. Tall, hot, and broody. Tousled brown hair, chiseled jaw, alluring green eyes, perfect teeth, well-groomed beard, broad shoulders, and lips good enough to bite. He’d look like a Disney prince if the prince was a broody ahole.

Four years ago, a fated meeting led to an inevitable hook-up. Just one. It’s his rule. One-time hook-ups, no information exchanges, and no repeats. I knew that even before he established his boundaries, and he kept his promise. I hadn’t seen or heard from him since.

A year ago, when tragedy struck, he came back to town and sought me out. Gone was the disarming grin and the innuendos he’d once used to make my knees go weak. Unfortunately, his ire was equally debilitating.

Now he’s back as the face of Fairview’s brand new professional hockey team and he’s looking for answers I don’t have. Finn won’t accept that, though. He’s as determined to uncover my secrets as I am to keep them.

He pushes as hard as I pull. It’s only a matter of time before the rope snaps. Now I can only hope I’m the one left standing.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Knockout by Bella Matthews

The Knockout by Bella Matthews is now live!

From USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a hot new hockey romance between a broken ballerina and the forbidden bad boy who saves her.

We all have dirty secrets. Some are just more fun to hide than others.

Ares Wilder is a so-called bad boy. A ladies man. The teammate most likely to fight both on and off the ice. And now this devastatingly dark and handsome hockey player with a sinful smile and a filthy mouth is my twin sister’s new brother-in-law, landing him firmly in the forbidden category.

Only he doesn’t see it that way.

Resisting him should be no big deal, right?

At least that’s what I thought…

Until one night, he manages to look past the illusion I’d spent a lifetime perfecting and see the broken girl behind the pink satin pointe shoes.

We were the perfect storm I never wanted to escape.

But with secrets piling up and my world crashing down, will Ares be one more thing I destroy?

Damn these Wilder brothers.

Ares Wilder is just that – The Knockout. And Grace, the good twin has no idea what she’s gotten herself into when he sets his sights on her.

Ares is the known the player, ladies man – you name it, and he’s not once denied it. Grace is the good twin; she’s the people pleaser and always puts others before herself. But these two definitely surprise one another.

“In case I didn’t say it, you looked really pretty in that dress, Grace.’….
“I would have looked even better out of it, Ares.”

I loved Ares and Grace’s story so much. I loved both these characters and how they brought out the best in one another, challenged one another. Bella let their story unfold in the most natural of ways for their respected careers and it felt so authentic.

“She’s not the song you dance to. She’s the lyric you can’t get out of your head.”

The Knockout may be a sports romance, but this definitely worth the read for any romance reader.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Heartless Monster by Rachel Leigh

Heartless Monster by Rachel Leigh is now live!

A Dark and Sexy, Enemies-to-Lovers, Sports Romance from USA Today and International Bestselling Author, Rachel Leigh.

Rome Cromwell isn’t just football royalty in our town.

He’s a heartless monster out for revenge,

And I’m the ordinary girl with his target on her back.

One year ago my knight in shining armor stepped out of the fog and rescued me.

With a simple thank you and an “I owe you one”, I was on my way.

Little did I know, that was only the start of our deranged story.

Now our parents are married and we’re living under the same roof.

Rome presents himself as a masked villain with strikingly good looks and a hypnotic appeal.

Girls want him.

His friends want to be him.

But I only want to run from him.

I see beneath his cracked facade into the heart of the beast.

He blames me for the fight that left his football career in shambles.

And he hasn’t forgotten I’m in his debt.

Now his claws are digging in so deep, I fear I won’t survive.

Rome no longer wants to save me.

He only wants to own me.

To break me.

Heartless Monster is the first book I have read by Rachel Leigh. And I absolutely devoured this book in one day. I could not get enough of Elodie and Rome.

From the start, Heartless Monster drew me in. And the story and these characters kept me turning the pages.

Elodie might come across as this quiet, mousy girl, but she is quite the spitfire.

Rome is used to getting what he wanted and people just doing what he wants and asks for until he met Elodie.

One night changed both their lives, but in two completely different ways.

Rachel wrote a fantastic angsty story. The push and pull between Rome and Elodie was addicting. While Rome was beyond an asshole at times, Elodie wasn’t going to go down easily. And I loved that she knew when to submit and when to push back.

Heartless Monster moves at the perfect pace. The tension, chemistry, and with the added suspense of secrets lurking around the corner, this book keeps you right on edge the whole time.

I pray we get more from this family in the future.

Meet Rachel

Rachel Leigh is a USA Today and International bestselling author of new adult and contemporary romances.

Release Day Blitz…Wild Ride by Kate Meader

Title: Wild Ride

Series: Rookie Rebels #9

Author: Kate Meader

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Hockey Romance, Single Mom

Older Woman/Younger Man, He Falls First

Release Date: March 26, 2024

BLURB

Chicago Rebels hockey player Dex O’Malley has been a naughty boy … again.

Only his latest stunt isn’t quite like when he was caught with his pants down at a nightclub or was cited for drag-racing on Lake Shore Drive or even that time he said a few critical things about his teammates on a hockey podcast. Oops. This time, Dex is in real trouble, the kind that could get him kicked off the team and out of the league. And that cannot happen. Hockey is the only thing he’s ever been good at. The only thing he cares about. He’ll do whatever it takes to rehab his rep, even if it means cleaning up dog poop and suffering the steely-eyed disapproval of his new no-nonsense “boss” at the animal shelter, Ashley Adams.

Ashley has enough on her plate between her low-paying job, her high-maintenance family, and a love life she’s trying to resurrect after her divorce. She’s already mom to an amazing nine-year-old; the last thing she needs is mothering a celebrity volunteer with more money than sense. But the troublemaking f-boy needs Ashley to sign off on his good deeds so he can get back to what he does best: lighting up lamps both on and off the ice. And while a guy like that could never interest her mind, it seems her body is not on the same page. Sure, Dex O’Malley is too young, too hot, too flighty for Ashley to take seriously, but maybe a brief ride on the wild side might fit the bill …

Only that’s not enough for Dex. What happens when this notorious player decides the older, single mom is the hottest woman he’s ever met and that he wants to light her lamp … forever?

Release Day Blitz & Review…Puck Pact by Kristen Granata

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.

Buy Link:

https://a.co/d/gtN6uEA

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!

Synopsis

PIERRE (“GAGS”)

My life is complicated.

Hell, I’m complicated.

I don’t know a life beyond how I’m perceived. After a devastating divorce, it looked like I never would.

Can a hockey fight change your life?

I may not understand my attraction to Sven Holmer, but I can tell you my obsession with kissing him started in the middle of a fight. When we met again, the conversation was easy, the banter effortless. Once stolen glances gave way to secret touches, I was more confused than ever. How the hell am I supposed to handle it when everything I’ve always believed about myself no longer fits?

Things are great… until they aren’t.

Our connection deepens with every minute we spend together, but like me, Sven is no stranger to betrayal and heartache. Between my stubbornness, his reservations, and the start of a new season, how can we survive months apart?

When tragedy strikes, all bets are off. I just hope it’s not too late.

Broken Ice, Mended Hearts features two thirty-something hockey players hardened by heartbreak. This compelling, angsty book includes a bisexual awakening, hurt/comfort, found family, first times, high heat, and a hard-earned HEA. Though it is part of the Bethesda Barracudas Hockey series, it can be read as a standalone.

Blurb:

Thea Jenson has her future meticulously planned out. Graduate from college. Get a job. Marry her high school sweetheart and have two beautiful children. When she decides to transfer schools, her brother suggests she move in with him and his unruly hockey roommates. Everything in her life is going according to her plan . . .

. . . until she bumps into Kyler in their kitchen and sparks fly.

Kyler Rose, the starting center for the Northport University hockey team, is done for the moment he lays his eyes on Thea. But he can’t allow her to become a distraction. He’s determined to make it to the NHL. That’s if he doesn’t get booted for failing grades first. And even though he’s on scholarship, it doesn’t pay his bills or provide for his family. Neither do the tips he earns from his bartending gig. When an offer to make some fast cash falls in his lap, he takes it, thinking no one will care if he gets hurt . . .

. . . except Thea does care.

But just as Kyler finds a way to navigate his feelings for Thea, an unexpected link to his family comes to light and he finds himself in the fight of his life to protect those he loves the most – his family.
