Aleatha Romig
Release Date: January 27

Reinaldo Roríguez
Emiliano Ruiz
Both are dangerous, deadly, and powerful. Both are second-generation soldiers proving themselves in the Roríguez cartel.
Both want me.
Of course, I wasn’t told until it was too late. That’s the way things work in the famiglia. My fate is up to Dario Luciano, my guardian.
He doesn’t care the way the men make me feel. How when I’m near them, the air crackles and my skin warms with stinging electricity, stirring something deep inside me that never before existed.
One fills me with desire, twisting my insides.
The other recognizes my need to be loved, filling me with a comfortable warmth.
By the time I learn that both have requested my hand, a deal has been brokered.
Neither man from the Roríguez cartel will have me.
I’ve been promised to another, the son of Dario’s sworn enemy.
Will I have any say in my future?
What will happen to the alliance between the Luciano famiglia and the Roríguez cartel when tragedy strikes?
Have you been Aleatha’d?
QUEENS AND MONSTERS is a stand-alone dangerous Mafia/cartel romance in the “Brutal Vows” series. Each arranged-marriage story is filled with the suspense, intrigue, and heat you’ve come to expect from New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig.

This was quite the wild ride and I loved every minute of it.
These books need to be read in order because there is an underlying plotline happening throughout each book. Each book does focus on a particular set of characters, but they all play into the underlying plotline, which just adds to the overall story.
Aleatha really knows how to write these mafia stories that keep readers engaged the whole time and flipping pages quickly. Her storytelling just pulls you in and leaves you wanting more.
Queens and Monsters truly showcases how well Aleatha intertwines the mafia/cartel worlds and how they “cater” to one another, when it fits their goals. There is so much going on but it’s never confusing to the reader and it all blends so seamlessly.
The blurb gives you all need to know going into this. I won’t spoil anything by attempting to give you any rundown of what happens in this book or any small parts because I loved seeing things unfold without any knowledge of anything but the blurb beforehand.
I am loving this series and cannot wait to see what she brings us in the next book.

Untamed by Jane Henry is now live!
When fiction meets fantasy it’s not all fun and games..
I don’t just dream about possessive anti-heroes.
I crave them.
The dark, dangerous ones dripping with Bratva energy, the ones who claim you with a single look and make the world kneel at your feet just to keep you safe.
“Touch her and die…”? I live for it.
“My wife…”? My favorite.
It’s all a harmless fantasy.
Until it’s not.
I’ve built an online following fan-girling over book boyfriends just like him.
And he knows it.
The only problem? Rodion Kopolev doesn’t just embody the dark anti-heroes I love…he is one.
So when his obsessive focus lands on me, I feel like the heroine in one of my books.
His possessive words claim me.
His dominant touch brands me.
And when I try to run, he chases…
But when the threats of my past creep closer and I need protection from a dangerous stalker, Rodion is the devil willing to protect me… for a price.
Turns out, when the fantasy becomes reality, it’s not so harmless after all…
Please note: Untamed is a standalone dark romance with a strong, fierce heroine and an unapologetically obsessive, jealous, and possessive alpha anti-hero. No OW drama, no cliffhanger, always a hard-won HEA.

RODION & EMBER!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This book had me all-in from the get-go. Hook. Line. Sinker.
Jane wrote this book flawlessly. From the characters, to the storyline, to the undeniable burning chemistry and how it played out and along with the plot. Jane merged all of it with impeccable plotting and it flowed beautifully.
Rodion and Amber were an absolute perfect match for one another in so many ways. The banter, push & pull, and hot-as-sin scenes (and not just those *ahem* scenes) it just added to the intensity of this book.
Let’s not forget this is a MAFIA romance. There is no shortage of drama & action as Rodion is out to prove to his brothers that he’s not the slacker they think he is.
I love this one so much more than the first & I’m excited to see what Jane delivers in the next books.
Highly recommended!!

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?

The Apple Tree by Jewel E. Ann is now live!
He’s a single dad starting over in a new town. She’s a relentless flirt with a penchant for trouble, ten years younger than him, and the babysitter. What could go wrong?
Eve has just graduated from high school, but she doesn’t know what’s next aside from working at the local motel, spying on Kyle, her neighbor, and stealing apples from his orchard. If she doesn’t figure things out soon, she’ll be stuck at home and treated like a child forever.
Kyle is a single dad and the new football coach who needs a babysitter for his adorable son. When he meets Eve, there’s an instant connection because she reminds him of someone—himself. But Eve is the preacher’s daughter, off-limits, and Kyle has already had his heart trampled by his ex.
After earning his son’s affection with her homemade apple sauce and youthful spirit, Eve asks Kyle to teach her things like driving his fishing boat and shooting his hunting bow. Despite his better judgment, he agrees, but swears Eve to secrecy so no one gets the wrong idea about them.
Their playful banter and innocent flirting crosses a line, and Kyle misses the heartbreaking secret Eve’s hidden in plain sight.
When tragedy strikes, can they find their way back to each other?
The Apple Tree is a standalone in the Sunday Morning series by USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Jewel E. Ann.

Meet Jewel E. Ann

I know this will sound completely biased, but there isn’t anything by Jewel that I will not devour and love wholeheartedly.
Jewel’s writing is unbelievably captivating and no matter what the storyline, characters or overall plot, readers are enthralled with the entirety of the book.
Eve and Kyle’s story is quite the emotional yet hilarious journey that makes me smile and brings tears to my eyes at the same time. There is so much that these two endure, that I was really wondering, “will they get their HEA?”
I won’t say much more on this book. Jewel delivers another phenomenal and realistic story that readers will not be able to put down once they start.


Jewel is a Wall Street Journal & USA Today bestselling author with a quirky sense of humor. When she’s not saving the planet one tree at a time, you can find her role modeling questionable behavior to her three boys, binge-watching Netflix with her husband, and writing mind-bending romance.

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.

Ilsa Madden-Mills has revealed the cover for The Kiss Lottery!
Releasing February 11, 2025
From bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills comes a steamy story about first love and second chances where a city girl returns home for a Valentine’s Day tradition…and the boy who broke her heart.
Roses are red, violets are blue–someone in Rose has feelings for you…
Yeah, bad ones. Everly Davis didn’t leave her tight-knit hometown on the best terms. It’s been ten years, but you don’t forget heartbreak like that. Then again, the anonymous invite to the annual Kiss Lottery in Rose, Tennessee, gives Everly content for her podcast. And she has a bone to pick with that old heartbreak anyway.
Beckett Whitfield has never left Rose–and he’s never forgotten Everly. He even named the villain in his latest bestseller after her. Turns out she’s not happy about that. Nothing about their reunion is particularly happy, and after the way they left things, what did he expect?
When the Kiss Lottery pairs them together, Everly and Beckett will have to confront old feelings that never went away and the secrets they never shared. But finally telling each other everything might be exactly what they’ve needed all along.
