As Lorelei tries to navigate the new normal, she starts reevaluating everything, and as much as she misses Jasper, it’s important to be strong. She’s not about to settle for anything less than the things she wants most.

Jasper Mitchell isn’t ready to give up on his marriage, he’s never loved anyone the way he loves Lorelei. Maybe it’s time to heal old wounds and then woo his wife, showing her that they’re truly meant to be together.

It’s her and him and he’s not going down without a fight. She’s his soulmate, after all.

Review:

I am usually not a fan of couples that are already married and working through it but with this author, I took a chance. Being a fan of other stories I wanted to see if she could change my mind. She did. Lorelei and Jasper have a wonderful story of a couple that need to grow on their own while also together. They take the time to be alone, they learn who are they are without being a couple, and then slowly we see them reconnect. I really loved this story and enjoyed seeing a married couple have a few imperfections that need worked on.

Release with Review:: Camden by Sawyer Bennett

NEW RELEASE! Camden (Pittsburgh Titans, Book #8) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: August 1, 2023

Synopsis:

Camden Poe is the last of The Lucky Three, the surviving Pittsburgh Titans who weren’t on the team plane the night it went down. By all outward appearances, he’s adjusted to post-crash life well but inside he’s wrestling with the guilt of living. The catastrophe that killed the Pittsburgh Titans changed my entire world. My teammates were more than my friends—they were my brothers. I mourned their loss with the rest of the nation but then I did as I’ve been taught… I moved on. I focused on returning to the ice with the newly rebuilt team and put the tragedy behind me. Considering the circumstances, I adjusted well. Or so I thought. Now I’m plagued by nightmares of the crash and my play has suffered as a result. Facing the possibility of losing my place on the team, I need to pull myself together and fast. My buddy and linemate, Mitch Brandt died in the crash, leaving his wife Danica and son Travis behind to pick up the pieces of their shattered family. After reconnecting with Danica at a support group meeting, I find myself inexplicably drawn to helping her and her son move forward. What starts as two friends finding solace in one another following a tragedy becomes something more, leaving us both wondering if we deserve this chance. I feel as if I’m walking a precarious line between a man falling for an incredible woman and a man moving in on his dead friend’s wife. But one thing is crystal clear—I’ve found a peace with Danica that I wasn’t sure I’d ever have again. Now I need to find the confidence within myself to push past the insecurities and make sure she knows how important she is to me because if I don’t, I’ll lose the one thing that makes me truly complete.

Review:

The last of the trio to survive that horrible accident, Camden has been ignoring all the signs that he might not be as soon as he claims. Nightmares, night sweats, just going through the motions, he is just moving along until he reconnects with Danica. He remembers how much his deceased team mate/friend loved his family and decides he should put in more of effort to make sure they are dealing with life without Mitch around. Danica has continued to work through her grief while also remembering she has a son to raise. These two lean on each other and a friendship is found. Their friendship slowly turns into more and I loved watching it develop. These two were kind and sweet. I hated that it was over so quickly because it was finished within hours of arriving on my kindle.

Release with Review:: Irresistibly Wild by J. Saman

   

Irresistibly Wild by J. Saman is now live! 

Layla Fritz. Young. Beautiful. Wild. And now my med student.

I slept with someone I shouldn’t have.

One moment I was saving her from the clingy jerk at the bar, and the next I was making her an offer.

No strings, no last names, just a wild night neither of us would forget.

Until she walked into my classroom Monday morning. As my med student.

Which officially makes her off-limits.

For a while, we manage to keep things professional, especially when my life takes a tragic turn, and I become a single dad to my niece. But when everything starts to fall apart, I ask her for an irresistibly wild favor—

Only Layla isn’t just any other woman, and before long it becomes impossible to keep my hands to myself—they’re in her hair, on her body, and making her cry out for more.

What started off as a friendly arrangement quickly goes up in a ball of hot, sweaty flames.

I’m risking it all to win her heart. But what if I’m after something she isn’t ready to give?

Review:

Callan & Layla’s story is amazing, one minute you are on the verge of tears and the next you are super hot and bothered. These two have a super hot night together and Layla leaves, deciding she needed that one night and with her full plate, she needed space. Low and behold Callan enters her life in another way. Callan is such a sweet man with a filthy mouth. These two do what they think is best and even when the walls come tumbling down, they find a way. They don't give up. I really enjoyed this story and was sad when there were no more words.

From my grandfather to my uncle to my father. Now it is my turn to work my way up the leaderboard. I had everything that I’ve ever wanted in my life. Or so I thought. Nothing could prepare me for coming face-to-face with Sofia. I knew her inside and out. She knew my inner secrets. Two years ago, I let her go, and now she’s planning my wedding to someone else. They say time heals old wounds. They lied. Maybe she was just mine to take. Grab Your Copy! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B88R8R43  

   

Review:

Oh my oh my, I don't even know where to begin. This crossover is amazing, it just worked. Sofia is getting her ears wet at a new job when a huge contract comes in, and it belongs to her EX. She kept a neutral face and tried to keep her self together during the whole meeting. She also tried with all her might for closure and to move on. Some men are harder than others to move on from. Matthew is dumbfounded when he raises his head to come face to face with Sofia. These two are everything you would expect from Natasha and more. Tears, there were tears when Matthew told his father and uncles the reasoning of the break up and his remorse. There is just so much heart in this story. Then of course, you have Casey and Matthew involved and the chaos follows. These two families coming together is genius. She is the queen of tearing the heart apart and gluing it back together.

Release with Review:: Center Ice by Stephanie Kay

Title: Center Ice

Series: Denver Stampede Book 1

Author: Stephanie Kay

Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance

Tropes: Hockey Romance/Secret-Forbidden Romance

Release Date: July 19, 2023

Cover Design: Ben Ellis with Pilcrow Design

"If you only read one novel by Stephanie (though you’ll be depriving yourself if you don’t read them all), read Center Ice! The friendships, family relationships and romantic relationships suck you in.
Give me MORE!!!" ~ Early Review

" Stephanie has outdone herself with this new series filled with hot hockey players looking to prove themselves, three young owners, and as always a whole lot of steam with a generous side of hockey!" ~ Early Review

"Binged in 1 day.... OMG I love reading a hockey book by a hockey-loving author. It comes thru the pages so smoothly you don't even realize it's not hockey season!!" ~ Early Review

Being the center of attention is the worst but being the center of his world feels pretty damn good.

Cora Monroe has spent her life in the spotlight thanks to her family's name, and a tragedy that devastated her. She's always hated the attention, but never more so than when her last relationship blew up in her face, and in the media. All she wants is to lay low. But she's at loose ends and not even her career brings her joy anymore. Until she catches a glimpse of the most gorgeous man she's ever seen, just as the elevator doors close.

Nathan Talbot is a solid second-line hockey player who's finally getting his shot as captain of the new expansion team. He's determined to prove he's up to the task of leading a team. That means keeping his attention on the ice, not on the owner's beautiful and intriguing sister.

Once they meet face-to-face, the spark between them is instantaneous and neither of them can—or wants to—resist. But all eyes are on Nate. A relationship with him would thrust Cora right back in the public eye, the last place she wants to be. And Nate can't afford to blow his big chance. If he was smart he'd walk away. But every time he sees her, being smart seems overrated. He just wants her.

Can Cora ignore the media frenzy and grab onto happiness with both hands or will she let the doors slide shut again and walk away alone?

Review:

I loved this story. Nathan has got to be one of the sweetest guys you meet during a story. I hated that they kept their love a secret for as long as they did when they should have had less stress on them. I understood where Cora was coming from with her brother and their close relationship. It was a sweet story that ended to quickly. 

Stephanie Kay has always loved a good romance, and she got hooked on the dirty ones at the tender age of 14, when she told her mother that if the cover wasn’t a bodice ripper, then there was no sex in the book. As an avid mystery reader, her mother never checked to see if Stephanie was lying. Twenty-plus years later, Stephanie’s most prized possession is her Kindle, and she may have a Hallmark movie obsession.

She lives in New England with her musician husband, energizer bunny daughter, and perfect writing companion pup. It’s a constant adventure with very little sleep.
