Blurb:I haven’t seen her in three years. I haven’t talked to her since the kiss.So why am I on a plane, flying across the world to spend a week with her in Germany?One word: Pops.My life’s a mess. My possible football career is hanging on by a thread. I’m driving the roads of Germany in honor of Pops with the one girl I can never have.And I’m sharing a bed with her, the girl I’ve measured everyone else up to, while desperately trying to not to touch her. We made a pact growing up, never to get romantic with each other – never fall in love. And I’m about to break that pact. For good.
The Romantic Pact is the second book in the Kings of Football series. Each book is a standalone even though you will read about the characters in each book, it’s not necessary to read them in order.
The Romantic Pact is Crew’s story and it’s a friends to lovers romance. It is a slow burn as we get to follow along when Crew and Hazel are sent on a trip through Germany. It’s a great book to read around Christmas or whenever you want those warm fuzzy, holiday feelings.
There isn’t much of the sports aspect in this one aside from knowing that Crew’s last season of college football was horrendous and he’s unsure what’s in store for his future. This story focuses on two friends who lost touch over the years and rekindling that friendship.
Hazel and Crew learn a lot on this journey – not just about themselves, but one another and it’s all thanks to Pops (he broke me in this book). This is probably one of Meghan’s more heartfelt stories with a touch of humor here and there.
The Romantic Pact has a connection to one of Meghan’s other books and once you make that connection (I did early on in the book), you will really enjoy this one even more. But if you haven’t, no worries! You will love this book just as much without that smidge of info.

About THE ENGAGEMENT EMBARGO
Four failed engagements. One year-long hiatus on women.
Elliott Sullivan loves being in love, but after his latest romantic disaster, his friends and family finally put their foot down—no relationships or proposals for at least a year. Ready for his heart not to be squashed under another sexy high-heel, he agrees to fully embrace life as a perpetual bachelor. Which should be easy—especially when he recruits his sister’s best friend for help. Surely he won’t fall for her, no matter how perfect she seems…
Skylar isn’t sorry to see Elliott’s latest relationship go up in flames. She’s had a crush on him for as long as she remembers—not that anything can ever happen there. So when Elliott asks for her help to stop him from breaking his dating embargo, she jumps at the chance. They’ve spent time together before and nothing has come of it. So what could possibly go wrong this time?
Sticking to his embargo would be fine if all this time with Skye wasn’t making Elliott wonder if maybe the perfect girl had been in front of him all along.

About SAMANTHA CHASE
Samantha Chase is a New York Times and USA Today bestseller of contemporary romance. She released her debut novel in 2011 and currently has more than forty titles under her belt! When she’s not working on a new story, she spends her time reading romances, playing way too many games of Scrabble or Solitaire on Facebook, wearing a tiara while playing with her sassy pug Maylene…oh, and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.
Who’s the mystery woman who just walked into my brewery?
I’m not the only one from my Alaskan small town asking themselves that question. But I’m positive, I’m the only one in Sunrise Bay undressing the pretty blonde in my head. Everything about her, from her make-up to her high heels says she’s a fish out of water.
Whispers and speculations run rampant until the secret of who she is gets uncovered. Then the rumor mill goes into overdrive when she announces she’s staying to open a bookstore in the building next to mine—throwing a big wrench into my plans to buy that empty building.
I quickly find myself in a tug-of-war since my business partner/brother is upset she’s ruined the opportunity to expand our business. I try to keep my distance, but I’ve got one sister with a gossip column on the local radio station and two meddling grandmas setting me up as a tour director.
And now I kind of like the idea of our new neighbor staying. But small-town life isn’t for the weak—time will tell if she has what it takes to be one of us.

What happens when the king of football meets the queen of nothing? Find out in The Revenge Pact, an all-new emotional and swoon-worthy enemies-to-lovers standalone romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills!
River Tate is a god on campus. The king of football. A tattooed bad boy with gunmetal eyes that see right through you. The only chink in his armor is her, the girl he pretends doesn’t exist, the forbidden one with the shy smile and lavender hair.
Anastasia Bailey is a nobody. The queen of nothing. An outsider with the face of an angel and a body made for sin. The only chink in her armor is him, her boyfriend’s frat brother, the football player who hates her.
But when Anastasia’s life crashes down, River’s the one who sweeps in and picks up the pieces. Torn between loyalty, lies, and secrets, he battles the temptation to take everything from her when they make their revenge pact.
He can’t tell her no. Because revenge (or love) is sweet, and once you get a taste, the craving never ends.

Excerpt
River
“Why is the elevator so slow?” she mutters.
“Tell me three things you’re grateful for,” I say.
She does a double take. “Is this where I’m like your…pet project? Don’t feel sorry for me.”
Rainbow, sorry is the last thing I feel for you.
I want you under me.
Deep and hard.
“How are things with Donovan?” I ask.
Her throat bobs. “I-I can’t talk to you about him. I mean, yeah, um, it…doesn’t feel right, you know, to him.”
Right. He’s her boyfriend and my frat brother.
The door opens and she slips out, her arm brushing against my chest. I follow, sucking down the electricity between us.
She blows out a breath. “I know what this is, why you’re being nice to me—”
“Yeah? Tell me, because I can’t figure it out,” I snap, annoyed she won’t open up while the other side is pissed at myself for asking. “Trust me, I wish I didn’t…” I stop, my jaw clenching.
She stops at the door to class and faces me. “Your paper. I’m sorry I can’t help you, I really am. I love helping others, but I don’t think it’s a good idea for us…” She bites her lip, her gaze avoiding mine. “There’s something about you and me—” She halts and looks down at her feet. “Anyway, I know a few students who tutor athletes. Let me give you their names—”
“No one but you, Anastasia.”
“What? Why?”
Instinct takes over and I back her against the wall, towering over her. I tilt her chin up, and she doesn’t speak or move, just breathing fast, as my hand slides around to her nape. A hum of heat goes through my body as my hands tangle in her hair.
“River…what…” Pink rises on her cheeks as her lashes flutter.
Every time, I’m pushing a little more, the dark side of me winning. Monday. Her apartment. Now.
I could kiss her right now, but it’s wrong, immensely, and I’m being bad, so bad…
She gazes up at me, her eyes flaring, the gold around her pupils darkening. She swallows as goose bumps appear on her neck.
A primal sound builds in my throat.
Anger.
Frustration.
Loyalty.
Dammit. I shouldn’t be this close, shouldn’t touch her—
“I’ll wait.” I grind my teeth and step back.
Her lips part, a small puff of air coming out. She looks at my mouth. “For what?”
The lethal side of me, the one itching to play this game no matter the consequences, tries to take over and speak the truth. I shove it down.
You, I say in my head.
Leaving her there, I sweep past her and go to my seat.
Five fucking rows back.
The Revenge Pact is the first book in the Kings of Football series and each book can easily be read as standalone. Ilsa does a magnificent job starting this series off the best way possible.
I loved this book so much. We meet River, Crew and Hollis at the beginning, but Ilsa blends that to focus in on River and who he is He may have this tattooed, playboy, bad-boy jock vibe but it’s what he keeps hidden from everyone outside his closest friends that really shines – he huge heart and kind soul. River melted my heart.
Anastasia recently moved to Braxton and shortly after she starting her college year there, she started dating River’s frat brother. She may have the boyfriend, great friends but still doesn’t feel like she fits in. She has experienced so much in her life that has given her an outlook on things through a different perspective. She sees more than what’s on the surface
This is a slow-burn, enemies to lovers, college sports romance. There is a lot of humor and whit blended beautifully into this story. There is so much angst and sexual tension that also bleeds onto these pages. Ilsa has truly written one hell of a story that melted my heart. I loved River, Anastasia and the rest of the gang. There were some heartfelt moments, so many good times – I felt like I was watching a movie play out.
Ilsa delivered a story that is chocked full of every tidbit we love about a great romance story. I cannot wait to see what we get in the other two books from Meghan Quinn and Adriana Locke.

THE RELATIONSHIP PACT by Adriana Locke Release Date: December 17th
Synopsis How hard can it be?
That was the question rolling around Larissa Mason’s mind just before she asked Hollis Hudson to be her fake boyfriend.
It was only supposed to be for five minutes, after all.
Granted, that was also before she felt his hand on the small of her back as he charmed the heck out of her family.
She hadn’t heard his laugh yet either.
And it was definitely before she saw the football god shirtless. Otherwise, she would’ve had an idea of just how hard some things could be.
It turns out that pretending to be in love with a crazily handsome, somewhat enigmatic, and absolutely unforgettable tight end (that has an amazing tight end) is easy.
Reminding herself that just because opposites attract doesn’t mean they’re forever is much harder.
What they have isn’t love—it’s a relationship pact. Right?

“A breathtaking romantic experience that will have you on the edge of your seat. Allen delivers a poignant new adult must-read.” – Kandi Steiner, Bestselling Author
A Bridge Between Us, an all-new standalone small-town romance from USA Today bestselling author K.K. Allen is available now!
I had always known he wasn’t mine to keep, but that didn’t change the way I loved him—quietly, gently, and from afar.
As the seasons changed, the corn stalks grew strong, and the grapevines flourished with hope. But none of it mattered, not when the soil at our feet bound us in a century-old rivalry. We’d never even had a chance.
They said life flashed before your eyes on the way to death, but on that night, after my final scream burst from my throat and my world started to fade to black, I only thought of him. Of his sweet chocolate eyes, his desperately cautious stare, and his silence that carried more weight than gold.
I should have died that night. Instead, I crossed the moonlit bridge and never returned. I let rivalry win. If only that had been enough to keep us all safe. If only we didn’t have a bridge between us.

Excerpt:
She starts to move past me toward the record player when something strong and instinctual—something that feels like fate—gives me a hard punch in the chest. I grab her hand and pull her back to me. Surprised, she stumbles a little, and her palms break her fall on my chest. When she recovers, she meets my gaze, and I don’t try to interpret it. Instead, I move her arms around my neck, wrap mine around her waist, and start to move.
Her eyes narrow, but they have a glimmer in them. “Oh, so now you want to dance.”
I cringe a little. “I don’t think you can call this dancing. And to be fair, I don’t think you can call what you were doing dancing either.”
Not even her harsh glare can hide the amusement she finds at my joke. She purses her lips to hold back her laugh then swats at my chest before moving her hand back around my neck. “At least I was having fun.”
“Oh, I was having fun watching you. Besides, you didn’t seem to have a problem with my moves at prom.”
Her cheeks redden, and when my gaze slips down to her neck, I find that part of her skin is changing color too. She’s flushed all over, and I can’t help but get excited that I’m doing that to her.
“Yeah, well, you also bribed me with a dozen pink roses, a tent, and a pretty necklace, so we probably shouldn’t compare experiences.”
At the mention of her necklace, my gaze locks on her throat, even though I already know it isn’t there. When she picked me up from the jail, she wasn’t wearing it then either. The disappointment weighed heavily, and as much as I want to ask her where it is, I choose not to go there. I had no right to question it back then, and I still don’t. “Just give me a few minutes, and I can rectify all that.”
She smiles gently back at me, and the mood shifts from playful to serious. “You would, wouldn’t you?”
My heart pounds so hard that I can feel it between my ears. I cup her neck while slowly moving a finger across her cheek, and I glance at her lips before locking on her eyes. “I would do anything for you, Camila. That hasn’t changed, and it never will.”
She blinks, as if she can’t believe me. I drop my forehead to hers, and when her eyelids flutter closed as a shaky breath rushes past her lips, I know she feels the same.
“How does this feel so normal?” Her words are just a whisper. “I close my eyes, and it’s like I’m right where I’m supposed to be.” She shakes her head. “I don’t understand.”
“What’s to understand? Our roots are deep, just like your vines, which adapt to every season. No matter the harsh weather, there’s always new growth.”
“Are you comparing our relationship to the life of a grape?”
The teasing in her voice makes me chuckle. “No. I’m comparing us to a whole damn vineyard. We’re the root.” I lean in, brush her lips with mine, and whisper, “You and me, Wild One.”
A shiver racks her entire body, and I tighten my hold around her, as if it could help. The way she’s engulfed in my arms brings me the most comfort I’ve felt in years. Camila’s right. This feels so normal and natural, like we were always meant to fit.
I brush my lips against hers again, almost expecting her to pull away and tell me it’s too soon or too late. Either one of those responses would be understandable. But when her fingernails dig into my back, I don’t ignore the message. I mold my mouth to hers and kiss her hard.
Her firm lips respond to mine immediately, and she steals every bit of my air as she breathes me in. I explore the taste and feel of her like it’s the very first time. In a way, that’s exactly what this is. It’s been ten years since our lips last touched, and though I’ve dreamed about it, nothing could have prepared me for the real feeling of our mouths moving as one, our breaths tangling with heat and desire, or our hands wandering as our mouths keep a slow and steady pace. The kiss is so consuming and powerful that I feel an awakening within me. And when she parts my mouth with hers and sweeps her tongue over mine, a growl rumbles through me.
A Bridge Between Us is another amazing standalone from K.K. Allen. It is more than just a story, it is an experience.
I truly don’t know where to start with this one. This book is so much more than just a romance. It’s a story about family, heritage and coming into your own. Allen wove such a beautiful story and gave us characters that will stay with us for years to come.
I will do my best to not give away too much in my review because this book truly must be read without my knowledge beforehand.
This book is told from three POV’s, yes three. And no, it is not what you are thinking. Just know that Allen crafted and woven a very strategic plot line. She delivers all the angst, suspense and drama wrapped up in a beautiful story.
Readers will love Camila and Ridge. Camila has a wild spirit and doesn’t shy away from much. Ridge is one the sweetest but reserved and keeps to himself. These two are at odds as to how to go about their friendship/relationship, but sometimes you it’s impossible to ignore two souls when they find one another.
A Bridge Between Us is more than the romance though. Reading about the families, their heritages and watching both Camila and Ridge grow and come into their own was such an adventure. This book is long, but it’s all those little nuances and trinkets of information that Allen intricately places throughout the book, that comes perfectly together in the end.
This book is a journey and one I was so glad I took. I love Allen’s writing and how deep she dives into her characters and their stories. If you want something more than just a romance, definitely pick this one up. You won’t regret it.

Because Niamh has seen what will happen to the human world if she does not protect the gate. Throughout the years, she’s traveled the world with her brother Ronan, using her psychic visions to find the fae-borne and convince them to stay on the path that will keep the gate from opening. She has sacrificed much … but when she loses her brother to the mission, Niamh begins to lose herself.
For nearly one hundred and fifty years, werewolf Kiyo has wandered the planet as a lost soul. Cursed with immortality, he spends his awful eternity as a mercenary for hire. When the powerful Fionn Mór confides the truth about the existence of Faerie and hires Kiyo to protect one of the fae-borne, he accepts the challenge out of boredom, not heroism. Yet Niamh is unexpected in every way the werewolf can possibly imagine.
Guarding Niamh from her enemies is nowhere near as challenging as protecting the fae woman from herself. If Kiyo is to succeed, he must help Niamh find herself again, and not just for her sake. Ignoring the fierce connection between them may no longer be an option. A new enemy is rising and threatening to rip open the gate between worlds. To remind Niamh of who she really is, Kiyo must make the choice to lower his defenses and give into their bond. Or safeguard his own heart … and in doing so lead the human world to the brink of war.

Bound By Forever is the third book in Young’s True Immortality series and can be read as a standalone, but I would not recommend it. Many of the characters are either introduced in other books and are mentioned as the books are released. However, you don’t need any prior knowledge to read each book. But I would recommend reading them in order so you have a much more fulfilling experience as you read them.
Young’s third book brings us an immortal werewolf sent to find and protect a very powerful fae. Niamh has many enemies that want to find her and kill her. Kiyo made a pact with another immortal to find and keep Niamh safe from her enemies and possibly herself.
And that is all that you are getting from me about this book. I won’t ruin it by spilling the beans accidentally. This story is a slow-burn and it’s necessary with this one. The storyline and how things progress cannot be rushed. You can feel the tension and angst roll off the pages as everything plays out.
Even though each book is showcases a particular couple, there is an underlying plot that is happening throughout each book. I love that Young summarizes a lot to keep readers up-to-date on what has happened without taking away from the story and gives new readers a better insight. As always, we are left with smiles for the current couple but are let eagerly awaiting what we will get in the next book.
If you love paranormal romances, I highly suggest you read this series. Young delivers book after book full of a whole new world with unique characters that we wish could be real.
From Bestselling Authors M. Robinson & Rachel Van Dyken comes a full length, standalone romantic suspense novel
_______________________________
Trust. Loyalty. Family. The tangled web of mafia life. We grew up together. Me, Eden, my brother Tristian. He was always the safe bet, the sure thing, the good guy. And me? Well, I was the Casanova, the killer who flirted with anyone and anything, breaking Eden’s heart again and again. We both loved her. Mind. Body. Soul.
Until I gifted her to my brother as if she meant nothing, when she meant everything to me. Tristian was safer. Better. Could give her the life I never would be able to. But things changed. We changed. My only goal was to protect her, making her hate me in return. Except once my brother wasn’t standing between us anymore, I decided… It was my turn to claim what had always been MINE to begin with.
MAFIA CASANOVA: Full length Standalone Romantic Suspense Novel
When two of my favorite suspense and mafia authors decided to join forces to write a book together, I knew it was going to be really damn good.
Mafia Casanova is the start of a new series for Rachel Van Dyken and M. Robison, however this can easily be read as a standalone. Mafia Casanova is a spinoff from both RVD & Robinson’s mafia series but you do not need to read any of those books to start this one.
“Nobody harmed what was mine; it didn’t matter that his wing was on her finger – she owned my soul and mine recognized hers as one thing. Ours.”
Romeo Sinacore is a killer. However, that’s his job in the mafia and he’s damn good at it. He’s also extremely irresistible and uses that to his benefit too, except one girl who’s always seen through his charm. Eden De Rossi
Tristan Sinacore is a numbers man. He’s always been the one to make sure everything looks exactly as it needs to be seen. And Eden has always been his weakness.
Eden De Rossi has been raised in the mafia world because her father is a made man. She’s grown up besides both Sinacore brothers and has always appreciated them both for the qualities that each possess. She’s now in position she never thought she’d be in.
“No….because I’m a sinner, stumbling, bleeding into the garden of Eden, it’s the only place I fina my salvation…..In you.”
RVD and Robinson weave a very intricate and enticing story between three best friends. It is told in both past and present times. I truly enjoyed how they placed each puzzle piece as the story played out; the scenes lined up perfectly with one another and allowed the story to unfold and flow beautifully.
Mafia Casanova is the perfect start to a new mafia series by RVD and Robinson. They’ve set the new book up wonderfully and I cannot wait to see where they take us next.
