*** MY NEW FAVORITES ***

Maybe Not by Colleen Hoover — (Read my review)

*SQUEE* Colleen Hoover just released this SURPRISE novella!!! It’s a fun, sexy, light-hearted spin-off of Maybe Someday (a standalone).

Tensions run high and tempers flare as the two can hardly stand to be in the same room together. But he has a theory about her: anyone who can hate with that much passion should also have the capability to love with that much passion. And he wants to be the one to test this theory.

 

Captivated by You by Sylvia Day — (Read my Review)

Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven — (Read my Review)

SQUEE!! I finished an early copy of this book absolutely LOOOOVED it!!! It’s a new top favorite. Easily 5 STARS for me!!! It was this INTENSE “hate-to-love-each-other”, dysfunctional-but-can’t-stay-away, love-you-forever-no-matter-how-painful type of love story. It just had this SPARK to it that made my heart RACE!! It’s a second chance romance with a moody, brooding, tortured bad boy hero. It will be released next month and I HIGHLY recommend it!!! — Pre-order here (Dec 23)

*** UPCOMING FEATURE  ***

The Law of Moses by Amy Harmon — Pre-order Sale!! — Nov 27th release.

I’m highlighting this one because I’m SO excited for this book and it’s only 12 days away. It’s a new standalone by the author of Making Faces and the pre-order only is on sale for $2.99 (going up to $4.95 after release). There are no $0.99 sales planned for the first year so if you want it at a discount, definitely pre-order!!

Someone found him in a laundry basket at the Quick Wash, wrapped in a towel, a few hours old and close to death. They called him Baby Moses when they shared his story on the ten o’clock news – the little baby left in a basket at a dingy Laundromat, born to a crack addict and expected to have all sorts of problems… Maybe the fact that he was broken drew me to him from the start…

Moses was a law unto himself. But he was also strange and exotic and beautiful. To be with him would change my life in ways I could never have imagined. Maybe I should have stayed away. Maybe I should have listened. My mother warned me. Even Moses warned me. But I didn’t stay away. 

And so begins a story of pain and promise, of heartache and healing, of life and death. A story of before and after, of new beginnings and never-endings. But most of all . . . a love story.

On May 15, 1975, fifteen-year-old Ginny is abducted from a convenience store by a member of one of the most brutal motorcycle gangs and her life is forever changed. She gets a new name and a new life in the midst of the gang’s base… And at the center of it all is the gang’s leader, Grizz: massive, ruggedly handsome, terrifying and somehow, when it comes to Ginny, tender.

*** WHAT I JUST FINISHED READING ***

Broken Course by Aly Martinez — (My review)

*Squee!* I totally loved this!! It’s the latest book in one of my FAVORITE series!!! — “Seven years ago, my life changed forever. Then fate led me to Leo James. He taught me that crazy could be perfectly normal and it shouldn’t hurt to breathe…”

Full series (all standalones but I recommend reading them in order because the stories are connected): Changing Course (My review), Stolen Course (My review), Among The Echoes (My review), Broken Course (My review).

*** NEW REVIEW & RECOMMENDATION ***

Nocte (Nocte Trilogy #1) by Courtney Cole — (Read my Review)

WOAH. I could NOT put this down!!!! It hooked me from the beginning, kept me flipping pages like crazy right through to the end… and now I’m desperate for the next one!! I went in totally blind and honestly, I suggest you do the same. Just dive in and let the story happen!! — This is 100% contemporary, NOT paranormal.

“I love him. More than life, more than anything… He has the power to destroy me. Why? Because of a secret. A secret I’m so busy trying to figure out, that I never see it coming. You won’t either.”

*** NEW REVIEW & RECOMMENDATION ***

Addicted After All (Addicted series) by Krista & Becca Ritchie

SQUEEE!!! This is now live!! It’s the latest Addicted series book (the 7th one) and I absolutely LOVED every word!! — Read my review — Without a doubt, this is my #1 Top Favorite “on-going” series. It’s sexy (I mean really, holy hotness!!), it’s romantic (their love story has ALL THE FEELS), it’s heart wrenching (I’ve cried more than once), but also heart warming and funny. The story is totally unique and it’s everything I could ever want in a series delivered with some of the best writing I’ve read. I HIGHLY recommend it for all fans of romance.

NOTE: This series must be read in order. These are NOT standalones. However, there are no cliffhangers now so you are safe to start reading. They are all full-length novels. Here’s the full series reading order: Addicted To You, Ricochet, Addicted For Now, Kiss The Sky, Hothouse Flower, Thrive, Addicted After All.

PS: I know it says this is “book #3” on Amazon but it’s complicated. Basically, the main Addicted series is broken down into 2 sub-series, BUT the stories are all about the same characters so just trust me and read them in the order I listed (which is ALL the books).

*** NEW RELEASES ***

Eight Days A Week by Amber L. Johnson — New Release!!

A new standalone was just released from an author I love!! — The hero is jobless and responds to an ad for a room to rent. But it’s more than that. The heroine is a working single mother of 2 who needs a caretaker for them. He’s not one but he takes the job as their “manny”… But when emotions get in the way, there’s more at stake than just an occupation. Because life doesn’t have a clock-out button. And neither does love.

 

PULL (Push #2) by Claire Wallis — New Release!!

This is the continuation of the story from PUSH. It is not a standalone and the books should definitely be read in order. It is the conclusion to this story. Reading order: #1 PUSH, #2 PULL. My review will be coming soon.

He was calm, collected, & made her feel safe BUT he had a chilling past: his six previous girlfriends all disappeared without a trace.

 

Fighting The Fall by JB Salsbury — New Release!!

This is the 4th standalone in the series. The first 3 are bundled together on sale.

 

Dirty Rowdy Thing by Christina Lauren — New Release!!

This is the second standalone in the series following Sweet Filthy Boy.

Despite their rowdy hookups, Harlow and Finn don’t even like each other…which would explain why their marriage lasted only twelve hours. He needs to be in charge and takes whatever he wants. She lives by the Want-something-done? Do-it-yourself mantra. Maybe she’s too similar to the rugged fisherman—or just what he needs.

 

The Retribution of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin — New Release!!

I’ve had this trilogy on my TBR for ages and the final book was just released so the series is now complete!! — The heroine wakes up in a hospital with no memory, as the survivor of an accident that killed her friends but left her strangely unharmed. She doesn’t believe that after everything, she can fall in love. She’s wrong.

Reading order: #1 The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, #2 The Evolution of Mara Dyer, #3 The Retribution of Mara Dyer.

 

Second Chance Holiday by Aurora Rose Reynolds — New Release!!

This is a holiday novella in the Until series. It’s recommended to read the main books first: #1 Until November, #2 Until Trevor, #3 Until Lily, #4 Until Nico.

Then Kathleen Mullings comes back into his life with her teenage son and changes everything. What happens when a man set in his ways meets a sassy woman who knows what she wants?

Brody by Mandy Harbin — New Release!!

This new release was a random find for me but it sounds interesting!

The hero isn’t your average small-town mechanic. The shop where he spends his days doubles as the headquarters for the mercenary group he works with. The heroine is under FBI protection and has been in hiding with her son for ten years. When he finds out she’s his next assignment, he will protect her at all costs … even if what she needs protection from most is him.

 

I Saw Her Standing There by Marie Force — New Release!!

This is the third book in the Green Mountain Romance series. While each book is about a different couple, I’m told that it’s recommended to read them in order because the stories are interconnected.

Reading order: #1 All You Need Is Love, #2 I Want To Hold Your Hand, #3 I Saw Her Standing There.

 

The Muse by Raine Miller — New Release!!

This is the first historical romance standalone in a new series.

Made: A Sempre Novel by JM Darhower — New Release!!

Sempre fans!! This is a new spin-off standalone in this Mafia series focusing on Corrado’s story. It can be read alone, but it’s recommended to read Sempre 1 and Sempre 2 first as that is where you are first introduced to his character.

“Never get close. Never get attached… the world isn’t quite as black and white as it’s made out to be.”

 

Prince Lestat by Anne Rice — New Release!!

“From Anne Rice, the reinventor of the vampire cosmology comes a new, exhilarating novel, a deepening of her vampire mythology, and a chillingly hypnotic mystery-thriller.

The Buried by Shelley Coriell — New Release!!

I’m super intrigued by this new dark thriller!! (can be read as standalone)

“She gets a chilling call from a young woman claiming to be buried alive. Desperate to find the victim before it’s too late, she’ll do whatever it takes… even if it means excavating the darkest secrets of her own past and turning to the one man she thought she would never see again.”

 

Bright Side by Kim Holden — Reader Recommendation!!

I’m sneaking this book onto this list because I’ve had countless readers tell me that it’s an absolute MUST-READ. I’m told it’s a hugely emotional “ugly cry” book, but I literally get daily messages from readers telling me just how much they LOVED it. So, if you haven’t read it yet, and you’re in the mood for a tear-jerker, definitely try it out!! (PS: Just as a warning, this is a bit of a rule-breaker book for me. But I’m told that it’s worth it!!)
