Captured by Jasinda Wilder (Read my Review) — standalone

SQUEE!!!! I finished reading this in one sitting and I absolutely LOVED it!!!! Gorgeous emotions with the perfect balance between heart-wrenching and heart-melting… Sexy hotness that had me fanning myself for pages on end… And a story that kept me glued to the book!! This can be read as a standalone and I HIGHLY recommend it!!! It’s been on my TBR since the day it came out and I’m kicking myself for not having read it sooner. I was in the mood for something emotional and so far this is EXACTLY what I wanted!!! It had ALL THE FEELS!! 😀

Withering Hope by Layla Hagen (Read my Review)

I finished this brand new standalone romance while wiping away tears just because of how BEAUTIFUL the epilogue was!! The story is about a woman who is on her way to her wedding when her private jet crashes in the rainforest. With no communication to the outside world and barely any supplies, she and her pilot have to work together to survive. And the more time they spend together, they slowly begin to fall in love… If you’re looking for a “different” love story, give this one a try!! I really enjoyed it!! — And, it’s ONLY $0.99 for a limited time!!!

*** LATEST NEW RELEASES ***

The Substitute by Denise Grover Swank — New Release!!

LOL!! Omg. This sounds like so much FUN!! It’s a standalone. — The heroine never told her parents about her broken engagement. On the plane over, she has a few drinks and spills her sob story to the tall, dark, and handsome stranger sitting next to her. But when she passes out, he helps her off the plane… And now her parents think he’s her fiancé. So he plays along… He’s only supposed to be a substitute groom, but the more time he spends with her, the more their pretend engagement starts to feel real… and the less they want to break it off.

Three Brothers by Nicole Williams — New Release!!

Wow!! This standalone sounds so unique!!! The heroine grew up alongside three brothers (not related to her). Over the years she moved away and spent time trying to forget the brother she’d fallen for — the biggest mistake of her life. But now she’s back… And a decade is a long time to wait. Has the brother she should have chosen moved on too? Is she about to discover that her biggest mistake wasn’t falling in love with the wrong brother, but failing to return the love of the right one sooner? Does unrequited love have an expiration date? She’s about to find out.

Mayhem by Jamie Shaw — New Release!!

This rock star romance is recommended by author Jay Crownover!! — The heroine is a college freshman who shares one kiss with an up-and-coming rock star on his tour bus. On the first day of school, she’s stunned to see him in her French class. He’s soon failing miserably, and, on a whim, she offers to tutor him. But he doesn’t recognize her… She’s now a makeup free college student who looks nothing like the mysterious girl he met at his concert… who he can’t stop thinking about. And she has to decide if she’s willing to risk her heart with a player and tell him the truth.

Seducing Destiny by Amelia Hutchins — New Release!!

This is the fourth book in the Fae Chronicles series. This PNR series has very high ratings and should be read in order! — These have dominant alpha male characters and the blurb calls the series “dark, dangerous, intense, gritty and raw. Scenes are dark, disturbing, and scorching HOT… Side Effects may include, but are not limited to: Drooling, lip biting, wet panties, crying, and screaming at the author.”

Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, Book 4.

The Hookup by Kristen Callihan — New Release!!

Football player alert!! This highly rated college romance was just re-released with a new cover!! It’s the first standalone in a series of standalones. Next book is a different couple. Also, this is on sale for $2.99 (reg. $4.99).

The rules: no kissing on the mouth, no staying the night, no telling anyone, and above all… No falling in love. Too bad he’s committed to making her break every rule…

The Line Between by Tamsyn Bester — New Release!!

This seems to be an “enemies to lovers” type romance, and it’s the first standalone in a series of standalones.

“There’s a fine line between love and hate, so fine that you don’t know you’ve lost balance until it’s too late. I’m not sure exactly when I lost my balance, all I know is that he was to blame. The boy who’d spent most of his life hating me for reasons I never understood… Until the line between love and hate was no longer visible…”

Burned by Karen Marie Moning — New Release!!

This is the 7th book in the Fever series!! This amazing urban fantasy/paranormal romance series has been one of my favorites for a long time and should be read in order as it follows one continuous storyline throughout all the books. Go to: Reading Order.

“The only one Mac can depend on is the powerful, dangerous immortal Jericho Barrons, but even their fiery bond is tested by betrayal.”

The Prince by Sylvain Reynard — New Release!!

This novella serves as a tie-in between the Gabriel Trilogy and the upcoming Florentine Trilogy (beginning with The Raven on Feb 3rd).

Between Everything And Us by Rebecca Paula — New Release!!

Bad boy romance alert!! — Matisse is determined to make her sophomore year of college successful after failing out of a prestigious art school… Then Beau Grady moves in and shakes up her world. A college dropout and tattooed bad boy, the rumors about him mean one thing — trouble. Once a star hockey player and gifted student, he’s put his life on hold after receiving a life-altering diagnosis… Falling for her means having to face a future he’d rather forget, but loving her just might be worth it…

Love Hurts by Mani Beck — New Release!!

This is the first book in a series with a cage fighter hero.

“Even when she won’t fight for us, I’ll go to war for her…

She’s my girl, my best friend. I haven’t earned her yet, but I won’t stand by and let anyone take her from me. She will be the greatest fight of my life, but she’s worth the battle. Love hurts, but anything worth having does, right?”

The Farther I Fall by Lisa Nicholas — New Release!!

This is a rock star romance.

The heroine got out of Afghanistan alive but scarred. When she’s offered a job managing the U.S. tour for rock music’s hottest, most troubled star, her instructions are simple: start the shows on time, and keep him clean… But Lucas Wheeler may be more than she can handle.
 …

I am SO excited to announce that ARCHER’S VOICE has been optioned for film!!! Hopefully this means we’ll get to see this beloved book brought to life on the big screen. I remember when I first read it just how clearly I could visualize every scene in my mind so I am absolutely thrilled that this gorgeous story will now reach even more people!! — Here’s a special announcement from author Mia Sheridan:

I am thrilled to announce that Lauren Levine, award winning producer of Bridge to Terabithia, has purchased the film rights to Archer’s Voice!

I am beyond excited about Lauren’s vision for Archer’s Voice as a major motion picture and have the utmost confidence that she will create something very special and very moving. Just the thought of Archer Hale on the big screen . . . WOW! 🙂

I want to thank all of YOU for your love and support of this book and of Archer as a hero. Without you, none of this would be happening! And thank you to my wonderful agent, Kimberly Brower, for her enthusiasm and hard work putting this deal together.

*** NEW TOP RECOMMENDATION ***

The Mason List by SD Hendrickson (Read my Review)

HOLY WOW!!! This book was just BREATHTAKING!! I absolutely LOVED it and truly FELT this story with all my heart and soul. My heart raced with the intensity as this epic childhood friends-to-lovers romance built over the years and I honestly had tears in my eyes for the whole last 80% of the book. And that epilogue was perfect!!! This easily was one of the most BEAUTIFUL stories I’ve read.

A TOP FAVORITE STANDALONE. 5+++ STARS!!!

The story begins when the main couple are just 8 years old. The heroine’s mother is dying and they’re kicked out of their home and forced to sleep outside the hospital in the parking lot. The hero’s family finds them one night and even though they hate charity, they have no choice but to accept the help… Anyways, the book follows their story all the way through to adult-hood as they eventually fall in love.

This is a MUST READ!!! And I’d especially recommend it for fans of The Sweet Gum Tree. It had a different plot (not a second chance romance) but a very similar intensity. — Read my Review

SQUEE!!! I finished an advance copy of this upcoming standalone romance the other night and WOW was it ever amazing!!! Exquisitely heart-wrenching, it brought me to tears more than once!!

*** LATEST NEW RELEASES ***

The Vigilante’s Lover by Annie Winters — New Release!!

WOAH!!!! “If Bourne dressed like Bond and acted like Grey, you’d have Jax.” — She trembles as she reads the letter that arrives from Ridley Prison. Seduction. Rope ties. Things she’s never experienced. He longs for a woman who must’ve given him a fake address. Her address. She plans to send the letter back. He’s a convicted felon. But his words gnaw at her. She’s never done anything dangerous. So she writes him, pretending to be the woman he desires. The man is in prison for another fifteen years. It’s harmless. She is safe enough. Until he escapes. (!!!)

Branded by Tara Sivec — New Release!!

I’m excited for this!! It can be read alone but is the second standalone in the series following Burned, which I loved! — “I’ve spent seventeen years pushing men away. Then, he walked back in… I hate him for what he did to me, but I can’t stay away. Eighteen days filled with passion and promises. Nineteen letters filled with threats and foreboding. It only takes twenty minutes for the numbers to all add up… This is my story, and it’s going to leave a scar.”

Feel Again by Faith Andrews — New Release!!

This new student teacher romance sounds emotional and seems to have a second chance twist! It also appears to be a standalone.

The heroine has been a widow for 10 years. She’s ready to fill the void, but not to give her heart away again. A chance meeting instantly attracts her to the hero, “but when their paths cross again — this time as professor and student — the roles reverse as he teaches her how to feel again.”

The Girl On The Train by Paula Hawkins — New Release!!

This blurb grabbed me!!! — Described as a gripping, enthralling psychological thriller, it’s about a girl who takes the same train every morning. Every day she flashes past a stretch of suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to watch the same couple eating on their deck. Their life seems perfect. And then she sees something shocking. It’s only a minute until the train moves on, but it’s enough. Now everything’s changed. Unable to keep it to herself, she offers what she knows to the police, and becomes inextricably entwined in what happens next…

Sometimes Moments by Len Webster — New Release!!

Wow!! This sounds AMAZING and it’s a standalone! — Growing up, Peyton fell in love with the boy across the road, Callum. Until the morning he left town with no explanation. Left heartbroken, she spent the next four years without him. Until he shows up suddenly one day. He’s not the same boy she once fell in love with. He’s guarded and keeps secrets close to him…Whether or not she wants to hear it, the truth will undoubtedly break her heart all over again…

Dare by Allie Juliette Mousseau — New Release!!

This new release sounds GOOD and a reader just told me that she LOVED it!!!

The hero is a dirty-talking bad boy UFC fighter, and the heroine is a single mom who’s hired as his exclusive massage therapist..

It’s the first standalone in a series of standalones.

Winter by Frankie Rose — New Release!!

This romantic suspense book sounds intriguing!! — The hero is a tattooed NYPD cop by day and a singer in a rock band by night… The heroine has changed her name and is no longer the daughter of a serial killer. No longer the girl who was bullied and abused through high school. A fresh name and a fresh start means she can leave all that behind. There’s only one thing marring her clean slate. A boy with a past of his own.

Thicker Than Blood by Madeleine Sheehan & Claire Riley

This standalone sounds different. — A true friendship never dies. Leisel and Evelyn lost everything. Husbands. Families. Friends. Lives that made sense. All they had left was each other, and a friendship that could withstand anything… Even an apocalypse. Traveling across a broken and infection-ridden country; the road-weary group are pitted against endless violence, improbable circumstances, and the ultimate loss… But in such a savage world, is there room for love?

Razorblade Kisses by RL Griffin — New Release!!

This story sounds quite intriguing!!
It’s a standalone with really high ratings.

“She doesn’t know who she is, she tried to run, to hide and make a life for herself… When her house of cards comes tumbling down she runs again, until the one person who can change her mind finds her… Take a breath before you start this one. It’s gritty and not pretty. Nothing is pretty here.”

The complete Corps Security Series by Harper Sloan — New Release!!

Right now, you can get all 6 books in this awesome badass Alpha male romance series bundled together for $9.99!!! This is a complete series and I’ve read the first 3 and loved them!!

Dirty Ties by Pam Godwin — New Release!!

But when the glamour wears off, they’re on the edge of a chance to turn a weekend fling into something lasting. Will they take the jump?

Raveling You by Jessica Sorensen — New Release!!

This is the sequel to Unraveling You. — This series is a story about Ella and Micha’s daughter and Lila and Ethan’s son from The Secret Series but the blurb is very clear that it can be read on it’s own! If you’re like to read The Secret Series first though, just click here for the first book (I loved it).

“Mysterious, sweet, and sad, he’s the exact opposite of her and exactly what she needs…”

Til Death 2 by Bella Jewel — New Release!!

This is the second & final book in this series. The first one is on sale for $0.99 and this is now a complete series!!

“How can I still care for a monster? …

If only it was that simple…

Promise To Marry by Jessica Wood — New Release!!

This is the first in a series (the next 2 will be out in Feb and March)

“We were best friends since as early as I could remember. We grew up together. We shared each other’s deepest secrets.

But we were no longer best friends, and a part of me knew that he hated me.”

The Wild Rush Trilogy Set by J. Evans — Sale bundle!!

Ooooh, this series sounds SO good!! Not a new release, but it is a new find! All 3 books are about the same couple. — The heroine is in over her head…. “I’m the only person who cared enough to stick around and raise my little brothers and niece, the only one fighting to keep the state from taking them from me. Never in my wildest dreams did I think my saving grace would come in the form of a guy with more money than God and a Robin Hood complex.”
