Chase

Everyone expected me to play hockey.

So I hung up the skates and joined Doctors without Borders
But there is no place like home, so now I’m back.
And instead of being on the ice, I’m behind the bench as the team physician.
After years of playing cat and mouse, it’s time to admit it. 
She’s mine.

Julia 
Working as a social worker was a dream come true.
It wasn’t easy, and it has made me shut off my heart to love.
No commitment. No strings. No promises.
Until one fateful night changed everything.
He was there for me like no other one.
The biggest thing is I let him. 
Maybe he was just made for me!

Review:
This story has been the most emotional yet. Julia has a difficult but fulfilling job of helping children. Chase understands the calling of helping becoming a doctor instead of continuing hockey. These two have been through together through their family members and weddings. The way that Chase is for there Julia will just make you want a hug. He just knows when she needs someone and he's just there: arms wide open. It made me cry and it made me fall in love with this blended family more. These two are wonderful together. 



Meet Natasha Madison

You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

Release with Review:: The Intern by Marni Mann


 

The Intern by Marni Mann is now live!

 

A scorching hot enemies-to-lovers office romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann…

In the legal world, everyone knows my last name. So, when Declan Shaw—the hottest, most ruthless and sought-after litigator in the state—comes in to mentor my class’s mock trial, I decide not to reveal that piece of personal information.

I want a one-on-one with him like I’m any other law student, especially when we go out to celebrate after class.

But the one-on-one ends with us in the alley behind the bar.

With us stripping off our clothes.

With me screaming his name.

It’s desperate-to-have-you, no-holds-barred, downright filthy sex.

And then, he ghosts me, like a complete alphahole.

But a few weeks later, when I walk into The Dalton Group—my family’s law firm—where I’m starting my internship, my new boss is waiting for me.

The man I despise.

The man I can still taste in my fantasies.

Declan Shaw.

Review:
Declan and Hannah have a totally complicated relationship. Declan is a jerk for most of the story. As smart as Hannah is in the classroom, I just couldn't see how she allowed Declan to mess with her heart the way he did. These two have to grow so much together. It was quite a story with lots of ups and downs.

Release with Review:: Secret Keeper by Stacey Lynn


Secret Keeper by Stacey Lynn is now live!

What started as a typical night out with my team, became the best night of my life.

Picking up a smoking hot blonde, I take her back to the hotel, expecting the evening to go down like any other.

But nothing about her is average… she’s sassy, witty and throws me off my game. After one incredible night, I wake up wanting to see her more than I want to go to hockey practice. Then another first happens, she kicks me out – wearing only a sheet and a frown.

The next time I see her, three months later, I knock her on her ass. Literally. Even dripping in tears, she’s still the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met.

Then I find the source of her tears. Her father. My hockey coach.

Turns out, I’ve gone and fallen for my coach’s daughter. Our attraction is undeniable. It’s also unavoidable since she’s now traveling with our team. I have more to lose than a spot on my hockey team if he catches us… like my heart.

Good thing I’m a pro at keeping secrets.

Review:
Ever read a book in an accent? Yea me neither until this one. I could hear Alix's sweet Switz accent everything he spoke. This story was amazing and I loved how sweet this man is! Ryann is slowly connecting with her estranged father while working for his hockey team. Alix is working hard for said team to get to another championship. Many bumps along the way, these two made me swoon. Loved them together.

Release with Review:: UNTIL WILLOW by Aurora Rose Reynolds


 Release Date: December 13


From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aurora Rose Reynolds brings another small town alpha romance that is ripe with heat and fast paced suspense.

Willow Mayson isn’t ready to just dive head first into love, or at least not with any of the men she’s dated.


Then she shares a single unexpected kiss with a complete stranger.


Clay Raven doesn’t want the strings of a woman tied to him in any way. His priorities are his family, his job, and finding the people responsible for helping to kill his sister.


One kiss shouldn’t have the ability to change that.


Even with the chemistry between them, Willow attempts to put distance between her and Clay but the guy is tenacious, until he’s not.


For a guy who’s never put much effort into any woman, Clay learns quickly that he’s going to have to fight, chase, and manipulate his way into Willows life if he wants to be a part of it.


Then just when Willow begins to let her guard down her friend is murdered setting off a string of events that could change the course of their lives forever.

 

Are you ready for another BOOM?

Review:
Well I had another leading man from this series that I totally fell for. Clay hits all the marks: tall, dark, handsome, protective, and caring. Willow meets her match with stubbornness and finally meeting someone that puts her first. Their relationship begins unconventionally with Clay working undercover to help the local police department. Eventually Willow finds herself in a position that a big strong man around isn't a bad idea. These two were sweet and sensational.

Review:
Micah and Tess are crazy intense with so much baggage. But it works for them. They learn to take care of each other. They learn so much in their time together. It was a great story and this group of friends is something special. 

        


Blurb:   

Micah Lyonne is the worst man I know.

As children, we were constantly thrown together by our powerful parents.

And we always despised each other.

He was supposed to be the heir to a billion dollar empire.

Instead, he lives in the shadows and chooses a life filled with violence.

Meanwhile, I’m the mayor’s ambitious daughter with a long list of responsibilities.

Micah sneers at everything I stand for.

And I know better than to dance with danger.

But when the inked, volatile Micah comes to my rescue one night, I’m forced to trust him.

It’s a night when I let my guard down.

It’s a night when I reach for him in a way that will change me forever.

It’s a night when I understand what it means to crave a man who is the opposite of the safe future I assumed I wanted.

The two of us make no sense together.

We won’t let that stop us.

He’s all I want and he’s decided that I’m his.

Together, we turn all the rules upside down and set the world afire.

Until someone decides to make us pay…

Release with Review: TARGET MAN by Annie Dyer


Release Date: December 8

She’s out of bounds…

 

As the captain of Manchester Athletic, I know exactly what persona the media and fans need to see.

Everything else is behind tightly closed bedroom doors.

 

I didn’t have a pretty childhood. I’m all kinds of broken. The only relationships I have contain boundaries, non-disclosure agreements and safe words.

My best friend and teammate is one of the few people who knows about what I do in private.

 

My problem?

 

The one woman I think I can fall in love with - his sister.

 

Target Man is a steamy, slow burn with a bang, older brother's best friend, soccer sports romance, with a dirty talking hero who knows exactly how to take control. Be warned, one more chapter will keep you up all night!

Part of the Manchester Athletic series, but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Review:
Jesse is a big strong soccer player that loves his fast cars. So much so that he loses his license for a few months due to the speed in which he likes to drive. This sets up the need for a driver, enter his friend and teammates unemployed sister Jerrica. Jerrica has made her feelings known, she wants Jesse, she wants to kiss him and be with him. He just doesnt think he's worthy of anyone's affection for more than a one time romp. This story had so many sweet moments. I felt like I was going on the holidays and enjoying this 'ride' with them.

Release with Review:: Sneaking Around with the Player by Rebecca Jenshak


 

Sneaking Around with the Player by Rebecca Jenshak is now live!

 

It was supposed to be a quick conversation with a cute boy at the airport while I dodged my ex and his new girlfriend.
We weren't supposed to trade numbers.
He wasn't supposed to be a football player.
And I definitely wasn't supposed to fall for him since he's attending a college a thousand miles away.
I saw past his jersey. And he saw past my last name.
Now it's semester break, and by some Christmas miracle, he's going to be close. So close.
I want to meet him again, but there's just one problem.
My older brother can't, under any circumstances, find out I'm dating his rival.

Review:
This is a quick adorable story. Stella and Beau begin a texting relationship, friends and so many miles between them. When Beau figures out who Stella's brother is and how complicated being in her life is, he is nervous. He wants her and is falling hard but he doesn't want life to be hard on her because of him. These two have a sweet friendship that has so much passion that they must be together. Loved this story and all the cuteness.

KNIGHT by USA Today Bestselling Author LeAnn Ashers 
is available TODAY on all platforms!

Are you ready for KNIGHT?


After being rescued from the nightmare I called my life, I spent years looking over my shoulder. But that was a small price I was happy to pay. Anything was better than being part of the cult I was born into and being tied to a cruel man I was forced to marry at just fourteen years old.

I kept moving forward, kept living for my daughter, Annie. But now, years later, my relentless ex-husband has found us. He’s made it clear he believes we belong to him. We’re his one chance to redeem himself and he’s not giving up. 

Time to go…again. Time to start over in a new city. 

What I never expected was him. 

I met him while running for my life and trying to keep my daughter safe.
I met him and everything changed.

My ex-husband had no idea…
In order to get to me and my daughter, he’d have to go through Knight.

Review:
The 2nd book in this series, my 2nd MC romance, and I am hooked to this author. MC romances aren't usually my thing but I couldn't put this one down. Knight is something fierce and Daniella cannot walk away. He has a pull on her from the moment he helps move her boxes into the house. His relationship with her daughter made me swoon, he totally becomes dad to her quickly, taking care of his girls. When trouble happens, he is right there to take care of everything needed to allow them to be safe. This series is amazing and I am so happy I am a part of this adventure with this club.

Release with Review:: LOVE ME FOREVER by Layla Hagen


Release Date: December 2

A surprise baby romance from USA Today bestselling author Layla Hagen

Have dinner with me.”

Four words. That was all Travis Maxwell needed to charm me, even though I’d just met him. In my defense, we were kind of stuck together, and he was the hottest man I’d laid eyes on. We spent a glorious week together, knowing we'd go our separate ways in the end.

Then two blue lines turn my life upside down. I'm pregnant.
Travis and I agree to be friends—nothing more—and to focus on raising our child.
Easier said than done.
Travis transforms from a master flirt to a caveman, intent on protecting me and our unborn baby. He spoils me and tends to all my cravings, including supplying my favorite cupcakes on demand and watching Netflix with me.
As we bicker about which season of Bridgerton is better, he suddenly tells me that he wants me.
That he needs me.
And I need him too.
But I want him to want me for me, not just because of the baby. Travis doesn’t want to settle down. He told me as much when we met. I fear he's mixing up his feelings, and I don't think that's the right recipe for forever…

Review:
Travis and Bonnie are adorable when they meet. Strangers both needing a car. That Maxwell blood runs thick and Travis doesn't disappoint. I liked that he was so protective over her immediately and just wanted to be around her all the time. They were cute together. Cannot wait for the next in this series.

Release with Review:: My December Balcony Neighbor by Aisling Magie



This Christmas, Aisling Magie brings you a cute, heartwarming novel with a sprinkle of heartache, all wrapped up in tinsel.

Every December, Era rents the apartment opposite mine and stays there until the end of the month. At night, he sits on his balcony rails and plays his guitar, and I curl up in my hanging chair, close my eyes and listen, dreaming about the ‘what-ifs’ of my life. He lures me with his mysterious gaze and captivates me with his music, but we’ve never talked.

Until one December when I wave at him, and our love story begins.

But he has secrets. And I have dreams.
He has motives, and I’ve thrown caution to the wind.
He is meant to lose me, and I am destined to hate him.

Because ours is a love story doomed from the very beginning.

Review:
This was a very unique told story that I enjoyed. It had a sweet storyline and I really enjoyed these characters. This was my first read from Aisling and her writing style held me until the end. 


About Aisling Magie

Aisling Magie is a twenty-something author who can either be found writing about people falling in love or has her nose buried in a book well past her bedtime. She enjoys chocolate, cello music, rainy nights, long drives, traveling the world, and Chris Hemsworth.

About her books: She writes romance stories with a hint of humor. Her heroines may not always be sexy, but are strong, her heroes may not always be the alpha but are dedicated and the families in her stories may not always be related by blood but are all bonded by heart.
