TOP RECOMMENDATION: Tortured by Nicole Williams (Read my Review)
OMG!!!!! I read this book in one sitting because I seriously COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN!! I wanted to read it as soon as I read the blurb. It was HEART-WRENCHING, ROMANTIC, and ADDICTIVE!!!! I almost felt breathless as I read because I just couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. It’s a VERY UNIQUE second chance romance. The hero and heroine were in love and planned to spend the rest of their lives together. But he was in the military and had to leave on a year-long deployment. When he was captured and held as a POW, her world fell apart but when he was killed, her world shattered. Years later, he was revealed that he wasn’t actually killed, but had been held in a torture camp for the past five years. And he returns home to find her trapped in an abusive marriage that she can’t leave for fear of putting her son in danger and he makes it his mission to save the woman he never once stopped loving… I loved this book!

TOP RECOMMENDATION: Twist: A Dive Bar Novel by Kylie Scott (Read my Review)
YAY!!! I’ve been highly anticipating this for so long and it’s finally released today!!! I read an early copy and it was FUN, SEXY, LIGHT-HEARTED and yet still had enough deep EMOTIONS to make it really well-rounded. There was some seriously hilarious banter, a love-hate romance, and some surprises that I didn’t see coming!!! The hero and heroine were OPPOSITES in every way. They met by chance online but had never seen each other in person but there was a catch — she thought he was his brother so when they finally met, she was shocked! But their twist of fate meeting worked out and I really LOVED reading their story!! If you’re looking for an awesome ROMANTIC COMEDY (with FEELS!!), then definitely order a grab a copy! It’s now live and can be read as a complete standalone!

DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

Mister Moneybags by Vi Keeland — New Release!!

TOP FAVORITE! Standalone: I met Bianca in an elevator. She was on her way to interview me when we got stuck. The beautiful raven-haired reporter assumed I was a delivery guy because of the way I was dressed. She had no clue I was really Dex Truitt, the wealthy, successful businessman she’d dubbed “Mister Moneybags”―her afternoon appointment.

Bianca told me how much she hated Dex’s type―snobby, over educated, silver-spooned men who didn’t appreciate the simple things in life. So, after the elevator finally started moving again, I cancelled the interview and let her believe I was someone I wasn’t―a bike messenger named Jay. I loved the way she looked at the fake me and didn’t want it to end.

I began dating her as “Jay”―all the while letting her interview the real me over email.
I didn’t expect that our chemistry online would be just as hot. I didn’t expect the mess I’d gotten myself into. I didn’t expect that Jay and Dex would fall in love with her.

And she was falling for two men. Only, both men were me. And when she found out, we were both going to lose her… Nothing could have prepared me for that day. And I certainly wasn’t prepared for what came after. All good things must come to an end, right? Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

Tortured by Nicole Williams — New Release!!

TOP FAVORITE! Standalone: When he left for a twelve-month deployment, she knew it would feel like forever before they saw each other again. She didn’t realize how right she was.

When Lance Corporal Brecken Connolly gets taken as a POW, Camryn hopes for the best but steels herself for the worst. In the end, steel was what she needed to survive when he didn’t. She moves on the only way she knows how—gilding herself in more steel.

Years go by. She builds a new life. She leaves the old one behind. Until one day, she sees the face of a ghost on the news. Brecken seems to have risen from the dead, but she knows she can’t perform the same miracle for herself. While Brecken was held in a torture camp for the past five years, she’s been trapped in her own kind of prison… Broken or not, Brecken wants her back. He’ll do anything to achieve that. Even if it means going against the warden of Camryn’s personal prison—her husband.

Twist by Kylie Scott — New Release!!

TOP FAVORITE! Can standalone: “When his younger brother loses interest in online dating, hot bearded bartender Joe Collins only intends to log into his account and shut it down. Until he reads about her… She’s funny, fascinating, and pretty much everything he’s been looking for in a woman—except that she lives across the country. Soon they’re emailing up a storm and telling each other their deepest, darkest secrets… except the one that really matters.

When she pays him a surprise visit, however, they both discover that when it comes to love, it’s always better with a twist.”

The Playboy Bachelor by Rachel Van Dyken — New Release!!

Can standalone: She’s no Sleeping Beauty. And he’s definitely no prince… She could have lived her whole life without seeing him again … her ex-best friend and the poster boy for Hot, Rich Man-Whores everywhere. But her whiskey-augmented grandmother “buys” him at a charity bachelor auction, and now suddenly he’s at her door. Impossibly charming. Impossibly sexy. And still a complete and utter jackass.
He’s just been coerced by his grandfather to spend the next thirty days charming and romancing the reclusive red-haired beauty who hates him… But the more time he spends with her, the more he realizes that “just friends” will never be enough. Now all he has to do is convince her to trust him with her heart…

Just Like That by Nicola Rendell — New Release!!

Standalone: “I bet I can untangle you.”
At an airport baggage claim, she looks up from her knotted mess of ear buds to find the sexiest hunk of man she’s ever seen. He’s got a military haircut, a scar through his eyebrow, and he’s rocking a pastel pink dress shirt like only a real man can. But she is on a man-free diet so she leaves the airport without succumbing to his delicious double-entendres… or his dreamy dimples.

He can’t take his eyes off her. As she sashays out of the airport with hips swaying and curls bouncing, he suspects they may share more than just sweltering chemistry. That suitcase she’s rolling along behind her? It looks a lot like his.

Because it is.

When he tracks her down, he holds her bag hostage in exchange for a date. Their night begins with margaritas and ends in urgent care, and he proves that Cosmo’s theory about a very particular type of orgasm was oh-so-wrong.

In her, he finds a small-town sweetheart with a very naughty side. For the first time ever, he’s thinking about picket fences. She finds in him a loving, caring man who understands the power of massaging showerheads.

But he is only in town for a week. They agree it’ll be a fling and nothing more. Because really, they can’t fall ass-over-teakettle in love just like that… Can they?

Ain’t He Precious? by Juliette Poe — New Release!!

Can standalone: “Eleven years ago, she graduated Harvard Law, turned down a job offer from one of the most prestigious law firms in Boston, and headed home to Whynot to open her own firm. Not only did she leave behind the big city, but she also left her boyfriend of three years. And just so we’re clear… that would be me.

So what am I doing in Whynot at this very moment? It seems she needs help with a legal case and for some insane reason, she called on me for assistance. I’ve been in town for five minutes, and I’m every bit as out of place as I feel. She’s is all sweet, southern curves to my tailored suits and high-priced haircuts [and] about the only thing we have in common is our physical attraction to each other.

But I have a new motto since coming to Whynot: When life hands you lemons, all you need is a little sex and sweet tea to make things better.” (NOTE: This is author Sawyer Bennett writing under a new pen name)

Dancing in the Rain by Kelly Jamieson — New Release!!

Standalone: In this heartfelt novel, a retired athlete must become a father to the daughter he never knew…

Hockey was his world, until a bum knee reduced him from superstar to has-been. Then he learns that, thanks to a one-night-stand back in college, he’s the father of a preteen girl with major issues. Her protective aunt sees right through his BS, but she’s no stereotypical spinster. With her slender curves, toned legs, and luscious lips, she has him indulging in fantasies…

Faking It by Carly Phillips & Erika Wilde — New Release!!

Standalone: He’s a confirmed bachelor who isn’t into rescuing damsels in distress, but when she needs his help, there’s only one thing for him to do. Step in and pose as her loving fiancé. Except there is nothing fake about his attraction to her, or how much he wants her beneath him in his bed, moaning his name.

But what starts as a sexy, flirty, temporary engagement, quickly becomes something more serious that neither one ever anticipated…

Truly, Madly, Whiskey by Melissa Foster — New Release!!

Standalone: Eight months is a long damn time to have the hots for a woman who keeps a guy at arm’s length. But she is no ordinary woman. She’s a sinfully sexy, sass-mouthed badass, and the subject of Bear’s midnight fantasies. She’s also one of his closest friends.

Just when she thinks she has her life under control, scorching-hot, possessive, aggressive, and fiercely loyal Bear pushes all her sexual buttons, relentless in his pursuit to make her his…

More Than Want You by Shayla Black — New Release!!

Standalone: I’m a real estate mogul, shark, asshole. If a deal isn’t high profile and big money, I pass. Now that I’ve found the property of a lifetime, I’m jumping. But one tenacious bastard stands between me and success—my brother. I’ll need one hell of a devious ploy to distract him. Then fate drops a luscious redhead in my lap who’s just his type…

She’s a sassy college senior who accepts my challenge to learn how to become [my brother’s] perfect girlfriend. But somewhere between the makeover and the witty conversation, I’m having trouble resisting her. She is everything I usually don’t tolerate. But she’s beyond charming. I more than want her; I’m desperate to own her. I’m not even sure how drastic I’m willing to get to make her mine—but I’m about to find out…

Puck by Jasinda Wilder — New Release!!

Can standalone: Puck rhymes with f*ck for a reason… And I intended to fully explore that reason, as soon as he finished rescuing me, along with the other women I had been kidnapped with. One of whom was a sassy, saucy woman named Layla. I tried to convince her, and myself, that Puck Lawson wasn’t my type.

She just laughed. “Honey, Puck isn’t anyone’s type,” she told me. “You don’t go looking for guys like Puck. They find you, and somehow, you’re never quite able to walk away after that.” Although, I had a feeling I might be unable to walk at all by the time he was finished with me…

Wild & Sweet by Rhenna Morgan — New Release!!

Can standalone: He’s not a man who walks the straight and narrow. He may have sworn an oath as a trauma doc, but he has zero problem leveraging his medical skills outside a hospital if it means giving the Brotherhood an advantage. Blood before business. All that changes when she stumbles into his life and ignites his protective instincts.

She’s a mechanic who prefers the complexities of an engine over men. Her life wasn’t always quiet and well-ordered, but now that it is, she finds peace in the solitude. When a robbery in her neighborhood forces her out of her safe bubble, she never fathoms that a dangerous, cocky trauma doctor will fix more than her injuries…

A year after our disastrous first date, I’m still in no position to have anything to do with a guy like him. But then right at my lowest, here he comes, riding back into my life and offering me something I’ve been desperately longing for—support.
