P. Rayne has revealed the cover for Ruining Hattie!
Releasing: July 17, 2025
Cover Designer and Photographer: Regina Wamba
A man with no limits is the most dangerous kind of threat.
When Trent Clarke caught me picking pockets at eleven, he didn’t turn me in. Instead, he took me under his wing and taught me that in this world, you take what you want and never look back.
He might have shaped me, but I built my empire of the most successful string of strip clubs on the West Coast.
Now that I have everything, it’s time to track down my deadbeat mother and remind her who she left behind. That is if the drugs didn’t kill her already.
But I don’t find the worn-down shell of the woman I remember. Instead, she has all the things she never managed to give me—the white picket fence, a family dog, even church on Sunday mornings.
The real kicker? She replaced me and raised the perfect daughter with all the care and love she never gave me.
A twisted need for revenge roars to life inside me, and I aim it at my mother’s precious stepdaughter—sweet, sheltered Hattie Sinclair.
At first, it’s purely about vengeance, pulling Hattie into the darkness to watch her innocence unravel piece by piece. But she becomes something more. Something dangerous. Something I can’t resist.
Until she becomes my obsession.

4.5 Stars
I was not expecting ALL that in this story.
First off, this book had me in a chokehold – which Jackson would love to hear. I read this book within a day, but each time I had to pause for whatever reason (work and family – always so needy), this book was on my mind. I had to know what was going to happen next.
Second – Jackson – damn. I am not one that’s into his kinks, the whole degrading thing but damn he made it sound hot and Georgia begged for it – ALOT.
Third – the plotline. WOW. There is alot that goes on in this story and it keeps you right at the edge the entire time. As much as Jackson and Georgia’s forbidden secret played a key role, the suspense and blackmail happening was just as enticing.
JD did a fantastic job of blending everything going on in this book into one high-octane story that leaves you breathless, in so many ways. This book had me on edge the entire time and even though I was right on things, it was how it all played that made this story perfect.
And I can’t forget Noah – he’s why all this happened to begin with. I am looking forward to more from him…

Meet J.D. Hollyfield:
Thanks for joining me for a cocktail and some girl talk. I live the dream in my own slice of paradise where I get to enjoy colorful sunsets from my rocking chair while I’m working. I have my very own romance hero with Mr. Rose and there’s more than a few little rose buds running around. A couple aren’t so little anymore! We keep things interesting with cats and a dog and the critters that roam though the yard (fingers crossed the mountain lions stay away).

Play It Off by Monica Murphy is now live!
From bestselling author Monica Murphy comes a sweet, sexy story about the secret crush between a college QB and his teammate’s sister, and the obvious chemistry that keeps them in the huddle.
Sienna
I’ve had a thing for Gavin Maddox ever since I was a freshman, but it’s a mission doomed to fail. Of all the guys I could have picked on campus, I had to go too far with the quarterback, my brother’s best friend.
We’ve spent the last two years avoiding each other. It’s not that easy when you have the same friends, not to mention I can’t forget the way it felt to be with him. But I can be civil. Polite. Detached.
I think…
Gavin
Sienna Cooper is off limits–except for that one time. I can’t forget it, but I need to forget her if I want to keep my head in the game. This is my senior year and, more importantly, my last season of college football. I can’t let anything distract me.
I’ve respected Sienna’s boundaries for this long. I can do it for another year.
…Can’t I?

Brother’s Best friend – I am in!!!
Play It Off is a very fast, paced college romance. Gavin and Sienna’s story starts off very interesting and it sets the stage for what happens throughout the book.
I won’t get too detailed with what all happens with this book. I will say that the storyline is interesting and it had me turning the pages.
My only gripe was I wanted a bit more depth to show the full chemistry between Gavin and Sienna. I felt it was more surface level for them, even though it was hot.
All the characters in this book are very colorful, for lack of better word. They stood out alot in this book but it’s needed to see how everyone is intertwined.
I am excited for the next book in this series.

The Rebel Seer by Lexi Blake is now live!
Shahidi Davis’s world exploded the night Myrddin took over the supernatural world. The child of powerful psychics, Shy was the only member of her family to escape the death the wizard delivered that night. Unfortunately, death still came calling when her power manifested itself. Her first encounter with a ghost earns her a trip to a mental ward. Guided by a very dead Harry Wharton, she begins to come to terms with her abilities. Her gifts lead her to the rebel army where she finds a new family and Rhys Donovan-Quinn. Overflowing with life, he is the perfect balance for a woman mired in so much death.
Zoey Donovan-Quinn needs to find her friends. The Day family is crucial to the war effort against the man who cost her twelve years with her children. More importantly, she loves Sarah, Felix, and Mia. They fled the plane to escape Myrddin, but the doorway Sarah opened was destroyed. Zoey thinks she’ll find another way to reach them on the Faery plane. And she can take this time to connect with Shy, who she’s certain will be her daughter-in-law someday.
But things are not all right in Faery. Zoey, Dev, and Daniel find the royal palace in chaos, while Shy and Rhys get drawn into a problem that could change the plane forever.

Mr. Charming by Piper Rayne is now live!
Three years ago, I swore to myself we were done.
Since then, Tweetie Sorenson has embraced the professional hockey player bachelor lifestyle—his social media is a highlight reel of clubs, friends, and a never-ending stream of different women.
It’s hard to believe he’s the same man who stole my heart the very night we met. With him, everything felt wild, spontaneous, and absolutely perfect. I thought he was my forever.
Then, he broke my heart. Or maybe we broke each other’s. Either way, it was over.
I’ve moved on—new city, dream job—until my boss throws me back into Tweetie’s world. I’m sent to Chicago to manage the Falcons’ social media, which means working alongside the one man I never truly let go of. FML.

Mr. Charming is the fourth book in this series and can be read as a complete standalone. I have not read any of the previous books in this series (but definitely want to now) and had zero issues with reading this story or needing any sort of previous knowledge to appreciate Tedi and Tweetie.
I really enjoyed the dynamics between Tedi and Tweetie. You could immediately feel the pull between them and the difficulty in staying away from one another (for reasons we learned as the book progressed).
I will be honest, Tweetie won me over. He may have his demons, but his love for Tedi was remarkable. Tedi – I understand her reasonings, but didn’t agree with her alot on things. And that’s ok – not every character an author writes is one that I will like, but I still enjoyed their story. My one gripe with this one – the length. I don’t think it needed to be as long as it was – some scenes dragged (for me) and others just felt unnecessary to the plot.
Overall, I really like this second-chance story. I definitely am curious about the secondary characters and their stories, so I will be going back and reading those books now.

Releasing: August 19, 2025
Cover Design: Mary, Books & Moods
The final book in the Lakefront Billionaires series by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Asher.
LORENZO
Five months. Two people “in love”. One fake relationship with an expiration date.
Sounds simple enough.
The problem is, Lily Muñoz and I have history.
So, when she volunteers to date me so I can improve my public image, I should say no.
Our past complicates everything, but since my future depends on her, I agree to her plan.
Faking it for the public is expected, but falling in love in private?
That isn’t part of our arrangement.
LILY
Using a dating app sounded like a great idea, up until I discovered Lorenzo Vittori was my match.
My sister’s boyfriend hates him. My mom is wary of him.
And me? I’ve spent the last year avoiding him.
But when my business is threatened, I’m forced into teaming up with Lorenzo to save it.
All I need to do is help him win the mayoral election, and he promises to protect my shop.
It doesn’t take me long to learn that I’m not cut out for fake relationships, but Lorenzo?
He isn’t capable of a real one.

Heartbreak.
And hedonism.

You could say I’m lucky in lust but very unlucky in the other L-word.
By the time I arrive in Mermaid Beach, Florida, I’ve decided I’m done with flings. I’m over chasing women I can’t have.
Until I meet Sloane Parker, the woman who has made it her mission to ruin the new Wolf Hotel.
A hotel I’m supposed to help manage, by the way. Yeah. Me, Ronan Lyle, Director of Facilities.

Wicked Love by Willow Aster is now live!
A sexy, small town, grumpy sunshine, single dad, sports romance from USA Today Bestselling Author Willow Aster
I fell in love with his little girl first.
From the moment nine-year-old Becca Fox and I hugged, it was like we’d known each other forever. Precocious, sweet, and kind, I just knew this little girl was exceptional. Her dad, though? Not so much.
Bowie Fox checks every box in the looks department—rugged, intense, and the kind of man who makes you forget how to breathe—but his personality? About as warm as a snowstorm.
That is, until we’re seated together at his best friend’s wedding, and then…we dance.
For hours.
Beneath that gruff and hard exterior, I catch glimpses of a man who wants to let loose and enjoy life.
After the wedding, when a hotel mixup leaves me without a room and stranded in Landmark Mountain, Bowie invites me to stay in his room. In his bed.
It’s innocent at first. Until it’s not. A sizzling one-night stand for the books. Then I wake up alone and when I see him at breakfast, he is as distant as ever.
Bowie lets me know his life revolves around Becca, his teammates, and football. He makes it perfectly clear that there is no room for anyone else—especially the bubbly coach of his daughter.
As much as our paths keep crossing, I know the broody linebacker isn’t ever planning on falling for me, but when I find out I am pregnant—I wonder, Can he fall for us?
Wicked Love is book four in The Single Dad Playbook series. Each book can be read as a standalone.
