DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

Somebody Else’s Sky by Jessica Hawkins — New Release!!

If I closed my eyes, I could still see them… A better man would’ve walked away by now, but I never claimed to be any good. I only promised myself I’d keep enough distance. If I’d learned one thing from my past, it was that love came in different forms. You could love passionately, hurt deep, die young. Or you could provide the kind of firm, steady support someone else could lean on… She was everything I wanted, and nothing I could ever have. I was nobody before I knew her and a criminal after. The way to love her was to let her shine—even if it would be for somebody else.

Buns by Alice Clayton — New Release!!

Can standalone: Growing up in foster care, she’s never been able to establish traditions of her own, which may be why she’s fascinated by the rituals that family resorts are known for. She’s especially interested in the Bryant Mountain House, and not just for their secret recipe for the yummy, gooey, can’t-get-enough-of Hot Cross Buns….

Archie Bryant, the man with the Buns, is the one-day-owner of the charming yet run-down Bryant Mountain House. He’s determined to save his family’s legacy from the wrecking ball the old-fashioned way—by gritting his teeth and doing what needs to be done. There’s no way he will be influenced by the new hotel branding expert his father brought in to turn one hundred and fifty years of tradition on its head just to attract a faster, younger, slicker crowd. But when some of her ideas start bringing in new, paying customers, he can’t deny that she may have just given him a shot at keeping his resort open…

Sexy Stranger by Kendall Ryan — New Release!!

Can standalone: Arrogant. Rude. Too Hot to Handle.
He knows the sexy stranger doesn’t belong in his small town, but he’s determined to keep her there. The second she opens her smart mouth, he wants to swap a whole lot more than insults with her.
She’s got a secret. But he’s got his own agenda.
Buckle up.
A sizzling, enemies-to-lovers romp with bite.

Real Sexy by Meghan March — New Release!!

Finale: He has never walked away from a fight, and he’s willing to put everything on the line to win the woman he can’t live without …

“In Nashville, stars are a dime a dozen. I swore I’d never get caught up with one, but he made a liar out of me. I said I’d never put my heart on the line, but he didn’t ask before he stole it. Now we’re facing my worst fears, and we’ll see if this country boy is tough enough to see it through. Girls like me don’t get happily ever afters… but maybe he’ll prove that wrong too.”

Falling Hard by Lexi Ryan — New Release!!

Can standalone: “Five years ago, I knew [her] body better than my own, and I haven’t forgotten a single detail – not the curve of her hip beneath my hand or the hitch in her breath when I kiss her neck. When she’s unexpectedly left alone in Sin City, I agree to spend the weekend with her. As friends. Why not?

She is part of my past—years so shrouded in secrets that not even my best friends know the truth about who I am. I’m a single dad now and not interested in revisiting my old ways or trying to win back the only woman I ever let close enough to break my heart. But this is Vegas, where all bets are off, and with her, nothing ever goes as planned…”

A Girl Like Me by Ginger Scott — New Release!!

Finale: I’m not supposed to be here. Death has come for me more than once, and each time it’s been a boy who’s stood between me and my final breath… Just as he did the time before, he disappeared the moment he made sure I was out of harm’s way; as if I didn’t need any more saving… Even so, I know I need his to survive. Our souls are woven together somehow, our every breath in sync. I feel it, even though everyone says I shouldn’t.

The world thinks he’s missing. His loved ones don’t want to believe he’s dead. Only I know just how special he is. I’m going to find him and bring him home, where he belongs. Together, we’ll face impossible… And when the bad guys come calling, we will always win.

Grand Slam by Heidi McLaughlin — New Release!!

Can standalone: Everyone knows who I am and that I could have any female fan I want. But I don’t want just any woman; I want her.

She should be just another face in the crowd, but I can’t stop thinking about the one night we spent together-and her look of regret the morning after. Because she’s the kind of woman who haunts a man. Smart, sexy as hell, and one of the best managers in the business. She’s every ballplayer’s dream woman. And I’d do anything to make things right with her…

Infinite Us by Eden Butler — New Release!!

Standalone: Love is timeless…
He loves zeroes and ones, over-sized monitors and late office hours. He’s too busy taking over the world to make time for relationships—that is, until his new neighbor barges into his life, and now he can’t shake the feeling that this isn’t the first time she’s interrupted his world.
Then, the dreams start. And in the dreams—memories.

Memories of a girl who couldn’t count on love or friendship, never mind forever. Memories of a library and a boy and secrets made in private that destroyed his world.

The memories seem real, but who do they belong to?
When they discover the truth, life as they know it unravels…

All for You by Melody Grace — New Release!!

Can standalone: As a high-end pastry chef, she has everything she needs for baking bliss — she just isn’t expecting her new landlord to melt her heart… He knows better than to fall for his impulsive new tenant. He keeps his life quiet and drama-free, but there’s something about her he just can’t resist. He’s learned the hard way that a woman can turn your whole world upside down, but her kisses are too tempting to ignore. He’s determined to keep the lid on their romance, but soon, their chemistry is heating up the kitchen – and he doesn’t want to play it safe any more…

Sexy Motherpucker by Lili Valente — New Release!!

Standalone: “He is the sexiest man alive. The captain of the [hockey] team is also clever, kind, funny, and was my good friend… until we cruised out of the friend zone one weekend with a red-hot fling… But he wanted someone who was “stepmom” material.
A.K.A, not me, apparently.
The problem? I’m crazy in love with him and his daughter. So when he asks me to be his pretend girlfriend for a long weekend with his former in-laws, I say yes. We’re still friends, after all, and friends don’t let friends fake it alone…”

All That I Am by Rachel Brookes — New Release!!

Can standalone: “He charges into my life like a force of nature. No matter how hard I try to keep the walls up around my heart, he’s made it his mission to shatter them. I have no chance of resisting him, but I would make sure I won this tug of war. Which was what I wanted. Right? When did the idea of losing myself to him start to sound so good? I wish he was the only battle I faced. There’s a reason this small town needs a good detective. One way or another I’m going to have to brace for impact because no wall I build can stop the new threat… After all, secrets only stay a secret for so long…”

Twenty-Two by Toni Aleo — New Release!!

Novella: When Lucas Brooks was traded to the Nashville Assassins over a decade ago, he was a brash, brawling hothead without an anchor.

Well, four kids and a smokin’ hot wife will weigh you down real fast, but Lucas wouldn’t change a minute of his happily ever after.

During an epic, end-of-season quest for the Cup, changes appear on the horizon, and suddenly, there’s a plot twist in Lucas’s fairy tale.

Lord of Shadows by Cassandra Clare — New Release!!

She has finally avenged her parents. She thought she’d be at peace. But she is anything but calm. Torn between her desire for her parabatai Julian and her desire to protect him from the brutal consequences of parabatai relationships, she has begun dating his brother, Mark. But Mark has spent the past five years trapped in Faerie; can he ever truly be a Shadowhunter again?

And the faerie courts are not silent. The Unseelie King is tired of the Cold Peace, and will no longer concede to the Shadowhunters’ demands. Caught between the demands of faerie and the laws of the Clave, Emma, Julian, and Mark must find a way to come together to defend everything they hold dear—before it’s too late.

Feel Me by Cecy Robson — New Release!!

Can standalone: He considers the assignment [with her] another step toward his political aspirations, despite that he can’t get her out of his mind. She sees him as egotistical and self-serving, kicking herself for how fast she’s falling for him… In another situation with any other woman, he wouldn’t hesitate to take her to bed. But she is the boss’s daughter, and for once, he finds himself wanting more than just a one night stand.
Neither counted on each other.
Both just met their match.

Master of Solitude by Cherise Sinclair — New Release!!

Can standalone: Since childhood, she has dreamed of falling in love with a hero. And then one saves her life. He’s honest… and blunt. Deadly, but filled with pain. Overpowering, yet ever so gentle with her. Oh yes, she’s found her hero. Taking him to her bed is simply…right. As is losing her heart. How could she have known he’d want nothing more to do with her? She vows to forget him… then he buys the land next to hers.

Released early from prison, all he wants is to move to the city and get his life back together. But [then] a violent gang targets his brother [and] after a decade as a Navy SEAL, he won’t walk away when someone he loves is threatened. His task might well be deadly. He sure can’t afford to get involved with a woman—especially his captivating neighbor. Why won’t his heart obey orders?

The Darkest Corner by Liliana Hart — New Release!!

Can standalone: He’s a dead man walking. A former black ops agent, he was disavowed and stripped of all honor before being recruited as a Gravedigger. But his honor and good name no longer matter, because no one knows he’s alive… His mission is simple: save the world or die trying. And for God’s sake, don’t ever fall in love. That’s a rule punishable by death. The kind of death a man can’t be brought back from.

She has no idea how he ended up in her funeral home. He’s dangerous, deadly, and gorgeous. And she knows her attraction to him can only end in heartache… [And] he has to decide if he can trust her with secrets worth dying for. And, most important, he has to decide if he can trust her with his heart.
