DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

Dane’s Storm by Mia Sheridan — New Release!!

Standalone (Audiobook): “He was her first kiss and the only man she ever loved… until their marriage crashed and burned. Now she has built a quiet life for herself running a flower shop she’s put her whole heart into. But she is left reeling when an unexpected circumstance brings him back into her world. He’s still as breathtaking as he ever was, and he still affects her more than any man she’s ever known. Yet learning to trust him again could be a matter of life and death…

When he offers to fly his ex-wife from California to Colorado to help correct a wrong, he never imagined the harrowing twist of fate awaiting them. When their plane goes down in the snowy mountain wilderness, they are stranded with no one to turn to but each other. Will their second crash end their lives—or save their souls?”

Until Harmony by Aurora Rose Reynolds — New Release!!

Can standalone: “She isn’t the kind of girl to take unnecessary risk, but after meeting him, she starts to wonder if maybe she should be. The more time she spends with the wild and free biker, the more she starts to crave the freedom he gives her… And even more, she starts to crave him.

He lives his life on his own terms. After losing both his parents at an early age to a robbery gone bad, he knows how precious life is, and he’s determined to get as much out of it as he can. When he runs into her and finds out she’s moving to town, he knows it’s time to take his shot. She thinks he only wants to be friends, but she couldn’t be more wrong. What they don’t know is that their time might be cut short. Revenge is in the air, and someone won’t stop until a debt is settled.”

Marriage of Inconvenience by Penny Reid — New Release!!

Can standalone: “Being a billionaire heiress isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. In fact, it sucks. She changed her identity years ago and eschewed her family’s legacy. But now, her silver spoon past has finally caught up with her, and [to] avoid imminent disaster, she must marry immediately; it is essential that the person she chooses have no romantic feelings for her whatsoever…

Fortunately, she knows exactly who to ask. Dan O’Malley checks all the boxes: single, romantically indifferent to her, completely trustworthy. Sure, she might have a wee little crush on him, but with clear rules [and] a legally binding contract, she is certain she can make it through this debacle with her sanity—and heart—all in one piece. Except, what happens when he isn’t as indifferent as she thought?”

Accidental Tryst by Natasha Boyd — New Release!!

Standalone: “Two strangers accidentally switch cell phones in a busy airport in this edgier You’ve Got Mail, sexy romance for the smart-phone era…”

Her: “What a disaster! I only just made my flight to New York to help my uncle, and the phone I’m holding is not mine! It seems to belong to some commitment-phobic serial dater who’s never made it past four dates (according to the constant notifications he’s getting from his fake dating profile…) And worse? I have a sinking feeling it’s that hot suit-monkey with the arctic grey eyes I just had a run-in with at the airport. Somehow, I have to persuade him not to get a new phone until I get back. My whole life is on that phone. I knew I should have backed it up. It’s only a few days. Surely, we can handle it.”

Him: “This is a joke, right? My life could not get more f*cked up. I’m in the middle of selling my company and on my way to a funeral and that hot mess hippie-chick stole my freaking phone. I’m not sure how she convinced me not to immediately walk into a smart phone store and get a new one, but now she’s going to have to play stand in and distract me while I deal with my long-avoided and estranged family. I don’t have my dating apps after all, and frankly she’s pretty funny. And sexy. And why can’t I stop texting her? And now we’re talking. And … look, I’ll admit that I usually run for the hills the morning after, but the morning after phone sex? That’s not really real, right?”

High Voltage by Karen Marie Moning — New Release!!

Series: “Dani O’Malley was nine years old when the delusional, sadistic Rowena transformed her into a ruthless killer. Years later, Dani is tough and hardened, yet achingly vulnerable and fiercely compassionate. Despite the scars on her body, no one is more committed to protecting Dublin. By day she ensures the safety of those she rescues, by night she hunts evil, dispensing justice swiftly and without mercy, determined to give to those she cares for the peace she has never known.

With the lethal, immortal Ryodan at her side, Dani once again battles to save the world, but her past comes back to haunt her with a vengeance, demanding an unspeakable price for the power she needs to save the human race. And no one—not even Ryodan, who would move the very stars for her—can save her this time.”

Sweet Dreams by Stacey Keith — New Release!!

Can standalone: “On any given day, she has cake batter on her sleeve, flour where the blush supposedly goes, and sore feet from standing since dawn. Her failed marriage taught her that love is a lie and commitment a mistake, and it was an expensive lesson. But with her bakery thriving and her life simplified to work, family, and knitting for her pug, she thinks she’s bought some peace. Until Jake Sutton walks in and she realizes she isn’t safe from desire at all…

The attraction between them is hotter than her oven in July. But when he decides to restore the old movie theater right around the corner from her bakery, she worries that temptation is a little too close for comfort… This time nothing less than true love will do. If she can learn to listen to her heart, she just may be able to have her cake and eat it too…”

Dark Alpha’s Night by Donna Grant — New Release!!

Can standalone: “There is no escaping a Reaper. I am an elite assassin, part of a brotherhood that only answers to Death. And when Death says your time is up, I’m coming for you…

To some Fae, I am their worst nightmare. For I do Death’s bidding. But for all our strength and skill, a powerful enemy has risen up. Finding her could change everything. The Half-Fae is our one chance. She’s sharp and strong and fierce. She steals my breath every time I’m near her. And looking into her eyes is like a bolt of lightning right through me. She’s what I’ve been waiting for my long, dark existence. But for us to be together, we must first stay alive…”

A Rogue of Her Own by Grace Burrowes — New Release!!

Can standalone: For Miss Charlotte Windham, the best way to maintain her spinsterhood-and her independence-is a teeny, tiny brush with scandal. She chooses wealthy, handsome upstart Lucas Sherbourne as her unwitting accomplice. He’s intelligent, logical, and ambitious. What she doesn’t count on is that one kiss will lead them straight to the altar.

He has no love for polite society, nor is he keen on being anybody’s husband of last resort. He is attracted to her boldness, though-and her family’s influence. Without a title, he knows he’ll never truly be part of their world, even as they inch closer to a marriage that means much more than convenience. But a scheming business partner is about to test that tenuous trust, forcing him to make a drastic choice: his wealth or his wife.”

Sin With Me by JA Huss &‎ Johnathan McClain — New Release!!

Series: “Two broken people in a city fueled by sin… She isn’t looking to be saved. She knows the only person you can count on is yourself. Her moral compass might not point true North these days—but at least she’s still standing… The Military taught him about loyalty. Being there for your brothers is the only thing that matters—but when it mattered most, he wasn’t.

She’s got a ticket straight to Hell. He’s already been there and back. She needs to win. He just needs to stop fighting. Some sins scar your soul so deeply, you’ll never be the same. But this Devil in disguise might just be the angel he needs to forgive himself.

Making Sense by Lila Rose — New Release!!

Can standalone: “I’m thirty-seven, a mother, a divorcee, and I’m ready to date again. I need a man willing to love me for who I am. Only finding such a guy is harder than it’s cracked up to be. After all, I’m a little clumsy and just a tad outspoken… that is unless I’m in front of a man so good-looking my panties melt. Then I become an absolute weirdo.

Case in point: Vice Salvatore. Stunning. Growly. And also my boss. Thank God his a**hole attitude put my racing heart at ease and changed my lust to hate. Nope. I don’t care for him. Won’t. I’ll continue to ignore my ladybits and stay strong. At least for a while.”

Ruin by Samantha Towle — New Release!!

Standalone: And the new heavyweight champion of the world is… Those are the words that he has been waiting to hear since he first put on a pair of boxing gloves. He just didn’t think they would come with a tragedy that would change how he viewed the sport forever.

She was in her second year at Juilliard when her childhood sweetheart walked away from her. A few months later, she realized that she would never fulfill her dream of dancing for the New York City Ballet. Now working as a dancer in an upscale club in Manhattan, she is brought face-to-face with the man she once loved. And it’s her turn to walk away from him… After five years of missing her, he isn’t prepared to let her go again. But when he finds himself standing on her doorstep the next morning, things don’t go quite as he expected…”

White Knight by CD Reiss — New Release!!

Can standalone: “She is a rich girl. He is a poor boy. He left her to make something of himself. A man she could be proud of. A man she could bring home to her parents. A man she could marry. On the trading floor he became the man he knew he could be. Now, it’s time to return.
Rich girl. Poor boy. She didn’t care about his money, but he didn’t believe her. Soon after he left, all the money was gone. Her life is hell. Now he’s back, and he’s different. Pristine. Gorgeous. Rich.
Rich boy. Poor girl. Money was never the barrier, until now.”

Law & Beard by Lani Lynn Vale — New Release!!

Can standalone: “She thinks she has the perfect life. Two beautiful, healthy children. A police officer husband. A job that she loves… Fast forward six months, and her perfect life has imploded. She finds herself in a completely new world, and this new world is a brutal bitch. In this new life of hers, her husband is gone. Her daughter is in trouble with the law, and she’s barely making ends meet thanks to losing the job that was keeping her and her tiny family afloat. [And] thanks to a spinal stroke that leaves her unable to walk, let alone run, she’s having to relearn how to do the simplest of tasks—such as putting on her own pants.

She’s at the lowest of lows, and the last thing she wants is a sexy, bearded, motorcycle riding alpha to tell her how to live her life…”
