ONLY FOR HIM

Natasha Madison

Release Date: March 13

Blurb:

Nothing could prepare them for what was to come.

Kylie

I learned early in life that love isn’t just given, it’s earned.

Now I’ve decided love isn’t worth it.

At least that type of love.

Until him.

He was broken.

It was safe.

But then I went and did the unexpected. 

I fell in love with him, knowing he would never love me back.

Knox

I thought I had it all.

I was playing hockey in the NHL.

Three beautiful kids and a wife who loved me.

Until I walked in on her in bed with my brother-in-law.

Everything I thought I had was a lie.

She was everything I thought I didn’t want, and when I least expected it.

I just hope when I finally figure it out, I haven’t lost her for good.  Review:
These two were funny while also sweet. Knox is broken, coming off a horrible divorce with a difficult soon to be ex-wife. He automatically assumes Kylie is hitting on him, when he doesn't realize she is the sister of a teammate. Kylie is a very independent woman who has gone through a trauma filled childhood. These two have a one night stand, that turns into multiple nights together, until they are both missing each other and want to spend all their time together. It was adorable how Kyle kept fighting him, and Knox just kept fighting, he found out that maybe his ex-wife wasn't the person he should be with, maybe Kylie is who makes him whole. I couldn't put it down and loved seeing some of our other favorite couples.

Foster

I learned early how to survive on my own. Keep my head down and my past locked away.

My childhood taught me that nothing lasts and no one chooses you forever. So I built a life free from love—and pain.

Football gave me discipline. Success gave me distance. Silence kept me safe.

Then Eden walked into my house.

My new housekeeper. Someone meant to clean my messes and remain on the edges of my life.

Except she didn’t stay on the edges. She saw me—really saw me—and didn’t look away. Her laugh somehow turned my empty house into something that felt like a home.

With her, the walls I spent years building began to crack.

Loving her means risking everything. It means believing I’m worth choosing. She makes me want to stop hiding… and change the play.

Eden

I know what it’s like to grow up unwanted. To pack your life into boxes and pretend it doesn’t hurt when no one ever unpacks them for you.

Loneliness taught me independence and resilience, to build a family from the people who stay. I never expected more.

Then I met Foster.

He’s quiet and guarded, carrying the weight of a past he refuses to name.

Working for him was supposed to be simple—do my job, keep my head down, don’t cross lines.

But the more time we spend together, the more I see the man beneath the armor. The one he hides from the world.

We weren’t looking for love. Yet somewhere in the stolen moments, we chose each other.

And for the first time, I’m not just building a family—I’m finally home.

Review:

This was an unique story as both main characters were grown in foster care and unstable childhoods. Foster is a sweet man and watching all of his friends find their person. Eden is used to being on her own and doesn't seek out others. She is used to being let down but Foster changes this. He pushes himself into her life, becoming a friend, then more. This is a sweet story.

Luisa—

I’ve grown up in a protective family and have lived a very sheltered life. My father owns five-hundred acres of land where my family has grown pecans for generations. We attend mass every week at the San Miguel Mission near our home— the one our family helped build over a century ago.

Our traditions and way of life are engrained in all of the Sanchez decedents. Our life comes with certain expectations, especially for the daughters of the Sanchez family.

I’m almost eighteen, but I’ve never been allowed to date.

It’s always been assumed that Mateo and I would marry. He’s kind and handsome and also from a prominent family, so I’ve accepted it as just the way things will be.

Until trouble brought the Saint’s Outlaws to our land.

Their president befriended my father and was even invited to my older sister’s wedding.

That’s where I met Blue.

The first time I saw him; my heart skipped a beat.

He was stunning and dangerous and everything Mateo would never be.

He flirted with me, and we slipped off from the celebrations into the pecan groves, and under the light of the moon he gave me my first kiss.

But Blue wants much more than a few chaste kisses.

Blue wants me—all of me.

And Blue is a determined man.

It’s exciting to be desired by a man like him who’ll stop at nothing to get what he wants. But Blue doesn’t know my future has already been arranged—that everything has already been decided.

I can never be his.

Review:

This story had a little bit of everything, forbidden love, club drama, a little fighting, and a strong man. Blue isn't looking for love when he meets eyes with Luisa, he just wants a little fun. That fun turns obsessive. The connection they have with each other is undeniable. They can't stay away from each other. But Luisa is promised to someone else. It seemed a little old school but it worked with this family. Her father controls all their movements and wants a solid future for his kids. I wasn't thrilled with her age in this story, 17 year olds are more than likely not as mature as Luisa. Other than that little issue throughout the story, I had to remember she was just turning 18, exploring the world. I really liked the flow of this story, the intensity of Blue with her and how much he fell in love without meaning too.

Blurb:

I’m the last single LeBlanc brother—famous in New Orleans for being a successful CEO…and a total man-whore. Becoming a single dad wasn’t on my to-do list…until my one-night stand drops my newborn daughter on my doorstep.

Suddenly, my world revolves around Charlotte: snuggling, changing diapers, preparing bottles. I’m running on little to no sleep and can barely focus.

So when I space out during Piper’s pitch, she assumes I’m hungover. Given my reputation, I can’t blame her—but it still annoys me. So even though her pitch was great, I kick her out of my office. I don’t need complications. Especially not one as attractive as Piper.

However, gossip travels fast in the French Quarter. When Piper discovers the truth behind my exhaustion and apologizes, I give her a second chance. I invite her to my penthouse to redo the pitch…except I’m far more focused on her cleavage, her smile, and the way she instantly connects with my daughter.

I shouldn’t want Piper. I can’t afford distractions. But the more time I spend with her, the harder it is to remember that she is off limits.

Review:

Beckett and Piper have an unique story as she bucks up to him right away however quickly has remorse. She wants to right things and works hard to do so. Beckett, while trying to manage a whole new life, is grumpy and takes frustrations out on the wrong person. The chemistry for these two is immediate though, Piper is the right push he needs. They work so well together as a team sometimes they forget how it all started. I really loved saying goodbye to this family because I believe this author did it the correct way, we got all the goods and were able to feel amazing how it all was left.

Release with Review:: ATLAS by Sawyer Bennett

 

ATLAS 

Sawyer Bennett

Release Date: January 13 

Blurb:

As a star left-winger for the Pittsburgh Titans, Atlas Karolak thrives on the ice but keeps his personal life uncomplicated. That all changes when tragedy strikes, pushing him into an unlikely partnership that tests his patience, challenges his heart, and threatens to rewrite everything he thought he knew about love and family.

Playing professional hockey wasn’t just a dream, it was the only one that ever mattered. I’ve worked my whole life for this career, and now that I’m playing for the Pittsburgh Titans, I’m exactly where I want to be. My life feels complete.

Losing my best friend to cancer shatters me in ways I didn’t see coming. And as I’m trying to figure out how to say goodbye, I’m blindsided again—because he’s named me and Maddie St. James as joint guardians of his daughter.

Maddie and I… we’re not friends. We’re barely acquaintances. If I’m oil, she’s water, and we’ve never managed to mix without friction. But for the sake of a little girl who’s already lost too much, we need to find neutral ground and figure out how to co-parent.

Are we capable? I’d like to think so. Are we scared out of our minds? Without a doubt. Can we put our differences aside and work together? Honestly, it depends on the day. But when stress turns into stolen glances, which turn into nights we can’t take back, our partnership gets a whole lot more complicated.

Because what started as obligation is starting to feel a lot like forever.

Review:

This was a well told story of two very different yet very similar people. Atlas is gifted a precious gift and he just doesn't know what to do with her. Maddie likes being in control and has been taking care of things on her own for so long, Atlas is an issue for her. These two have a lot of bumps but eventually it smooths out. This journey to an adulthood both didn't know would work for them is a great one to watch. These two learn to work together, make sacrifices, and to compromise to ensure a child is taken care of. As always this family of hockey guys and their women surround Atlas and Maddie in love and they all take care of each other.

ONLY FOR LOVE

Natasha Madison

Release Date: January 9 

Blurb:

When a chance encounter changes everything.

Lexi

Falling for a famous hockey player? I would have laughed at you.

I was trapped in a marriage-caged with cruelty.

I wasn’t ever going to be free.

Until I found a way to escape. 

Before him, I thought love was a nightmare.

Now I dared to dream.

 

Kirby

First time I met her I was drawn to her light.

Then I saw the fear in her eyes.

Fear I’ve seen before.

Our chance encounter turned into two.

If she ever needed me, I’d be there.

I never dared to want her.

But I lost my heart to her anyways.

Review:

Lexi's story is tough, its reality, some people you meet will make you a shell of yourself without you even knowing it. You will go from an independent happy person, to asking if the shirt is okay to wear out, even though you know in your gut there is nothing wrong with it. Lexi, being Viktor's daughter, was also a little rough, with his back story of having to be strong to overcome his addiction. Kirby has watched her from the sidelines, wanting her and knowing she is untouchable. When he gets pulled for a charity auction, he sees all the signs of a woman who is being controlled. Kirby shows Lexi how love is supposed to work. He shows her there are choices to be made by herself and that he is to compromise and work with her through life. This is a beautifully told story of a woman who finds herself again while also finding a man to makes her feel confident.
