Release with Review:: Game Changer by Piper Lawson

A steamy, grumpy sunshine sports romance featuring a woman down on her luck, a star basketball player with a filthy mouth, and a connection neither of them can deny.

Game Changer by Piper Lawson is now live! 

After being dumped and losing my job the same week, the last thing my broken heart needs is a rebound.

I'm escaping across the country to help my perfect sister plan her dream wedding, and to prove to both of us everything is under control.

But a combination of tequila and turbulence on the flight there lead to word-vomiting all my troubles to the huge and handsome stranger in the first-class seat next to mine.

Only his whispered dirty diversions keep me sane until landing.

Despite the spark of attraction, we go our separate ways.

Or so I thought.

Turns out the tall, muscular, tattooed tower of a man from the plane is the star player on my future brother-in-law's pro basketball team.

Clay is the last person I should gravitate toward. They're called "players" for a reason.

Grumpy and cynical, he carries a weight on his shoulders I can't possibly fathom.

He's also the only one who knows my secrets and gets my heart racing.

The more we're thrust together, the stronger the chemistry between us becomes.

Hooking up with the all-star athlete isn't the way to get my life on track...but it could just be the game changer we've both been searching for.

Review:
There is nothing sexier than when a man lets you in and tells you feelings. Clay doesn't even know why he does it but Nova gets a lot of those feelings without even trying. Nova feels safe with Clay and feels his friendship is just what she needs. These two really get to know each other and share so much that allows them to take the burden off their shoulders. It was a sweet story and Clay absolutely took a little spot.

Release with Review:: Hayden by S.R. Grey

Title: Hayden

Series: Breakaway Hockey Book One

Author: S.R. Grey

Genre: Sports Romance/Romantic Comedy

Release Date: April 20, 2023

Cover Design: Najla Qamber Designs

Cover Model: Chase Roback

Photographer: Wander Aguiar Photography

Bad-boy hockey player Hayden Harrington always lands on his feet. Or skates, in this case.

After a scandalous fling with the coach’s daughter comes to light, this good-looking hotshot forward is swiftly traded to the Atlanta Thunder—an up-and-coming new hockey team.

It’s not all bad, though.

This could be his big chance to play center on the top line.

So yeah, maybe it’s fortuitous that the pesky team marketing intern, Addison Knight, let his secret out.

Still, though she’s hot as sin, he’s happy he’ll never have to see her again.

Or will he?

What Hayden doesn’t know is Addison just landed a job with the Thunder too. And what it involves is spending an exorbitant amount of time with him working on rehabilitating his image.

Ha, like that’ll go well.

Hayden is an enemies-to-friends love story and the first book in the new Breakaway Hockey romance series. (can be a standalone)

“𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙮 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙖 𝙣𝙚𝙬 𝙨𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨! … the chemistry between these two is off the charts, throw in their banter with each other and you've got a win!” ★★★★★ East Coast Book Chicks

Review:
These two are funny, they started off on a bad foot but eventually they found common ground. These two took care of each other in a new city, learning to be a part of a new team. I really enjoyed this story and cannot wait for more.

Review:

Well there is just absolutely no one sweeter. Tristan is the forever bachelor, we meet him after a night with 2 women, he is woken up by a phone call he didn't think he'd get. He has to be there for his friends. But what happens when that friendship feels like more? Kendra is in a bad way, nicely put, her sucky exboyfriend really tried to kill her. Tristan is there to pick up the pieces and their growing relationship was amazing to watch. I couldn't and wouldn't put it down. Tristan will hold a special place forever.

Release with Review:: The Coldest Winter by Brittainy Cherry

The Coldest Winter by Brittainy Cherry is now live I didn’t know he was forbidden until after our one night stand…

I met Milo Corti during his self-destructive era, and he met me at the beginning of mine. That night when we crossed paths at a college party, we only had one goal: to feel good during our hell storms.

After we parted ways, I’d planned never to see him again. That was until I showed up for my first day as a student-teacher and found him sitting right there before me. Now I was forced to cross paths with the person meant to be nothing more than a fading memory.

The more time we spent together, the more drawn I felt toward him. When his world shifted for the worst, I couldn’t help but to lean in closer.

I’d always done the right thing. For the first time ever, I wanted to do something very wrong. I wanted to fall in love with the one person who was off-limits.

The problem with falling for something forbidden? Once you began to descend, you were destined to crash and burn.

Review: 
This is the saddest story I have read in such a long time. It was a story I couldn't walk away from and needed to know, would it work out. Milo and Starlet were both handed hard times during their childhood, only one came out of it with a support system to keep from drowning. Milo is drowning in his grief and he cannot get himself above water. Starlet is being told to loosen up and get out into the world when she meets Milo. These two go through some rough times, they grow together, and the maturity level of both impressed me with the hard stamp of life. I loved Starlet's dad's role in this story, allowing them to become one when it was time, yet being supportive of what these two 'kids' need.

Title: Superstar

Series: Rebel Rookies #2

Author: Kate Meader

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Only One Bed/Snowbound/Hockey Romance

Release Date: April 11, 2023

BLURB

He never saw her coming …

After almost a year away from hockey, Bastian Durand’s return to the game should be a triumph.

Instead he’s taken down by the Chicago Rebels mascot.

It can’t get worse. Or maybe it can. Because the human inside the Rowdy Rebel costume is none other than Pepper Calhoun.

His friend’s sister.

His coach’s daughter.

And the woman Bastian has wanted for the longest time.

Pepper has always been a magnet for bad luck and now she’s ruined superstar Bast Durand’s big comeback. So that tracks. Everyone, from her father and brother to the fans and press, heck, even the NHL commissioner, hates her.

Everyone but the one guy who should.

Hiding away is the only thing she can think of, except Bast has the same idea. To her utter dismay, he’s determined to protect Pepper from anyone who dares breathe a word against her.

And to convince her that crashing on the ice isn’t all that different from … falling in love.
