Release Day Blitz & Review…Not Your Biggest Fan by Sara Ney

by Courtney

NOT YOUR BIGGEST FAN

Sara Ney

Release Date: January 28

Blurb:

USA Today bestselling author Sara Ney sizzles with a quick-witted, sexy romp about an eager entrepreneur and a cocky football star who couldn’t be more different—or more into each other.

Harlow James is destined to rock the dating world. The creator of Kissmet, the app helping singles find love, she’s in New York to secure advertisers. But the sassy, small-town girl can’t help meddling in other people’s business.

When she runs into a muscular stranger at her go-to food truck, Harlow doesn’t realize he’s Landon “Andy” Burke, the NFL’s most-wanted free agent, in town to talk contracts. She just sees a hottie about to get burned by undercooked street food. Though she tries to warn him, he shrugs her off, making a little wager instead.

In a messy twist of fate, Andy finds himself in the same hotel as Harlow. When she collects on their bet, they make a mind-blowing—and bed-rocking—connection. But after the weekend, she goes home to Green Bay to her goofy dad and corgi, ready to focus everything on work again. Kissmet, however, has other ideas, when Andy knocks on her door…

Not Your Biggest Fan was a very cute sports romance in Sara’s newest series, Not Yours.

I have always enjoyed Sara’s books as they are very light, hardly any drama or angst, lots of humor and characters that make you smile. And you get exactly that with this book.

The meet-cute between Harlow and Andy is very endearing and really sets the tone for this book. Harlow is quite the character and while she says she’s not like her father (Big Steve will be a fave of readers) she definitely exudes the same confidence and inner-strength he has. Andy was entertaining at times, but he really didn’t do much for me, but that didn’t deter me from enjoying the story.

As with most of Sara’s books, the story takes place over a short period of time and we get to see how these characters get to know one another and leaves their outcome open-ended (sometimes seen in other books of the series). I love that Sara’s books have this sort of ending for her characters because nothing is set in stone for them for the future and allows readers to create their own epilogue of sorts.

I am looking forward to more from this series and anxiously await to see who takes Dex down.

Cover Reveal…Lucky Shot by K. Bromberg

by Courtney

K. Bromberg has revealed the gorgeous cover for Lucky Shot!

𝐀 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐛𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐲/𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥, 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫, 𝐊. 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐠

Our first meeting? He stood me up.
Our second chance encounter? I told him exactly what I thought of him.
Our third? It came with a bet (he lost) and an understanding that we’re stuck with one another.

It doesn’t matter that he’s Alexander Hardy—British soccer star extraordinaire, world-famous in every way, and a certified sex symbol. We come from two different worlds and live in two different realities. But all we need is one month.

The bet: Help him rehab his reputation to the media and the masses, and in exchange, he’ll help my soccer academy and the underprivileged kids who idolize him.

That doesn’t mean I have to like him. Not his delicious accent, his sexy smirk or those storm cloud gray eyes. Not his incredibly fit body or his sinfully dirty mouth. Not even the way he shows up day after day for the kids or the way he looks at me like he wants to devour me.

He looks at time spent in my world as a penance, while I look at it as a way to leverage his star power to help my academy survive.

But as the days turn to weeks, it seems we’re not as different as I once thought. The man who cares about no one, has fixed his sights on me. With his time at my academy up and his obligations back home calling, do we have a lucky shot of working out?

Cover Reveal…Save Your Breath by Kandi Steiner

by Courtney

Kandi Steiner has revealed the gorgeous covers for Save Your Breath!

Releasing: March 20, 2025

Model Cover Designer: Kandi Steiner

Photographer: Ren Saliba

Model: Anonymous

Discreet Cover Designer: Staci Hart

𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐈𝐍: 𝐇𝐎𝐂𝐊𝐄𝐘 𝐁𝐀𝐃 𝐁𝐎𝐘 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐏𝐎𝐏 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑 𝐄𝐗𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐃!

That was the headline we wanted. If only I’d known the cost to get it.

Aleksander Suter has been my best friend since high school—and the only man who’s ever been able to truly get under my skin. With his reputation for trouble and a smirk that could melt ice, he’s also the NHL’s favorite bad boy.

When my publicist’s plan to fix my image collides with his need to clean up his own, we find ourselves in a fake engagement that feels too real from the start.

Now, I’m releasing my new album, putting on a show for the paparazzi I usually try to dodge, and falling too fast for a man who never falls for anyone. Every stolen glance, every heated touch blurs the lines between us until I’m wondering where the lies end and the truth begins.

And when a hurricane traps us together in his high-rise condo, all my carefully built walls collapse, and resisting the pull between us becomes a losing game.

Suddenly, the stakes are higher than just headlines, and the risks feel more personal than ever.

But as our past resurfaces and old feelings reignite, I realize the biggest risk isn’t losing my career—it’s losing my heart to the one person I thought would never be mine.

Meet Kandi

Kandi Steiner is a USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author 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 hopeless romantic and found herself bursting at the seams with love stories she was eager to tell.

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, spending quality time with her family (fur babies included) and soaking up the sweetness of life.

https://mybook.to/ThePathToLovingHim

About THE PATH TO LOVING HIM:

What does one do when they completely blow an interview?

If you’re me, you pick up a one-night stand with the most gorgeous man you’ve ever seen…

That’s right, after a lousy interview that could have changed everything for me, I headed over to the local small town bar to sulk when the one man I shouldn’t want walked in. And when my friend convinced me to take him back to my hotel room, I didn’t think about it, I just did it . . . well, I did him.

It was an unforgettable night, but I didn’t stay for breakfast. Instead, I got out of there and tried not to think about him again.

Everything was fine until I received a call from the interviewer saying I got the job as the assistant baseball coach at Almond Bay High. I’d be working directly under the one and only Ryland Rowley–my one-night stand.

Now, I’m not only working with him but renting the apartment above his garage. And I have to deal with the fact that he’s the man I dream about and can’t have while not letting my attraction get in the way of keeping the harmony between us. Sounds easy, doesn’t it?

It should have been, except the plan falls apart when my shower breaks, and night after night I have to slip into his house to use the bathroom only to find him in the kitchen, staring me down with those hungry, single dad eyes.

Phenomenal start to a new series.

This was such a fun, cute YA sports romance. I enjoyed the characters and really found the story engaging and entertaining in so many ways. And yes, this is a true YA romance that even the younger adult will enjoy as much as older readers.

Claire and Austin are both about to embark are new changes and challengers during the junior, but for very different reasons. Austin is new the area and Claire is adjusting to new changes and challenges. What I loved most, the mannerisms and characteristics match these characters so well – they stay true to who they are.

I enjoyed the authenticity of this story – from the sports aspect, to the every day challenges of high school students. Rebecca delivered a fantastic story with characters that are relatable.

Looking forward to more from this author and this series.

Release Day Blitz…Mr. Broody by Piper Rayne

by Courtney

Mr. Broody by Piper Rayne is now live!

I’ve loved Henry Hensley since I was seven years old. We’ve gone from best friends to lovers to nothing.

To most people, he’s the Chicago Falcons starting right winger and hot single dad, but to me, he’s my first boyfriend, my first kiss, my first love.

Eight years ago, that all changed when our lives took us in two different directions. Our break-up almost broke me, so I kept my distance until our hometown called me back to where our story began.

I promised myself a quick visit to help my family out, and then I’d leave town before he even knew I was back, which should have been easy. He’s way too busy being a professional hockey player and raising his son to ever find out.

Of course, I’m only in town for a week before I run into him, and one thing is clear from our brief encounter—Henry wants to hash out our past, whereas I’d rather forget it.

But my plan really goes up in flames when I take a temporary substitute teaching job, and on day one, his son walks into my classroom. Boom.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Enticing by Bella Matthews

by Courtney

Enticing by Bella Matthews is now live!

From USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a Single Mom, Marriage Of Convenience, Hockey Romance.

You’d think a romance author would know better than to fall for her fake husband. It’s the oldest trope in the book . . . literally. But it turns out writing it and living it are two very different things.

The plan was enticing—marry hockey’s hottest player so I could receive my inheritance and give my daughters the life they deserve. I’m already a single mom at twenty-five—how hard could it be?

Well . . . the answer is harder than you think because Leo Sinclair is so much more than I bargained for. Six foot, four inches of toned muscle and golden skin wrapped around the most perfectly chiseled jaw and dangerously charming smile. I knew he’d be hard to resist . . . but it’s not just his looks that weaken my resolve.

It’s the way he wins over my daughters with ease.

The way he sees through my defenses and quiets my fears.

The way he says “my wife” like he means it.

Suddenly, this arrangement doesn’t feel so fake. And I’m no longer sure which of us is playing pretend.

But when love wasn’t part of the deal, will saying “I do” turn out to be his biggest regret—or mine?

Download today or read for FREE with Kindle Unlimited

Amazon: https://a.co/d/caZycYD

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3XSNIwd

The books in this series just get better and better!! And the titles for these books are absolutely perfect for each story.

Leo Sinclair has my heart. We saw him as this funny man in Tempting, but he showed as whole other side in Enticing. This man will pull at your heartstrings and have you wanting more of him with each turned page.

Addie has been through quite a bit and her girls are her world. She’s an extremely fierce heroine and will stop at nothing to protect her girls.

I love how this story unfolded. Addie’s daughter’s were a perfect addition and just added another layer to Leo and Addie’s story.

Bravo, Bella! Another smashing hit.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Risks We Take by Bella Matthews

by Courtney

The Risks We Take Duet Box Set by Bella Matthews is now live!

From USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a Brother’s Best Friend, Forbidden, Star-Crossed Lovers Romance.

Cooper Sinclair is everything I’ve ever wanted, and nothing I could ever have.

He’s cocky and confident, with a sinfully sexy smile and a heart of gold hidden under a chiseled chest. He’s also completely clueless about the way my heart speeds up every time he’s near. Because this man is an entire parade full of red flags.

My brother’s best friend—Flag number one.

A Navy SEAL who moved across the country to risk his life every day—Flag number two.

My new step-brother—Flag number three, four, and five.

After years spent convincing myself we could never work, it only takes one look, one searing kiss, and one forbidden night to unravel everything I thought I knew.

It also only takes one day to shatter it all…

*The Risks We Take Duet Box set contains Worth The Risk, Worth The Fight, and a brand new additional bonus short story Worth It All*

Download today or read for FREE with Kindle Unlimited

Amazon Worldwide: https://mybook.to/trwtdbs

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/trwtdbsgr

I am so incredibly happy that I was able to read this due (plus bonus short story) in one boxset.

For someone who has not read all of Bella’s previous series or books, this boxset really makes me want to go and read those. This duet is about Carys and Cooper but we meet so many other family members and connections, you want to know their stories too. And no, I was not once confused or lost or overwhelmed by all the characters and how they are all interconnected. It just added another layer to Carys and Cooper’s story.

Carys and Cooper’s story put my heart and emotions through the ringer. These two will have you sad, mad, angry, laughing, grinning like a fool and feeling hot through the entirety of their story. Bella delivers it all and keeps things moving at the perfect pace.

I loved that we see growth from these two in so many ways. Growth as individuals, growth as a couple and growth in life. You understand and empathize with their decisions. I felt everything these two went through.

This story is raw and emotional. Have tissues at the ready because you will need them. But it is worth every tear you shed.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Beautiful Devil by Rachel Leigh

by Courtney

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.

Meet Rachel

Rachel Leigh is a USA Today and International bestselling author of new adult and contemporary romances.
She loves to write—and read—flawed bad-boys and strong heroines. You can expect dark elements, a dash of suspense, and a lot of steam.
Her goal is to take readers on an adventure with her words, while showing them that even on the darkest days, love conquers all.
Rachel lives in Michigan with her husband, three little monsters (who aren’t so little anymore) and a couple of fur babies. When she’s not writing or reading, she’s likely lounging in leggings, with coffee in her hand, while binge watching her favorite reality tv shows.
