LATEST BOOK NEWS:

A Crack in Everything by LH Cosway and How The Light Gets In were just announced at special reduced preorder pricing!! — “Life used to be simple. I was a city girl with humble dreams. Then Dylan O’Dea broke into my flat, held me against the wall and told me to stay quiet. It was like in the movies, where the universe zeros in on a single scene. I looked into his eyes and knew he was going to change me… I had no idea that one day he’d build an empire from what we started together. But before that, there was love and happiness, tragedy and epic heartbreak… My name is Evelyn Flynn and I’m going to tell you about the crack in everything.”

Rome’s Chance by Joanna Wylde was just announced!! This is a standalone novella in the Reaper’s MC series! — Rome McGuire knew he was in trouble the first time he saw her. She was sweet and pretty and just about perfect in every way. She was also too young and innocent for the Reapers Motorcycle Club. He did the right thing, and walked away. The second time, he couldn’t resist tasting her. Gorgeous and smart, fun and full of wonder, she jumped on his bike and would’ve followed him anywhere. Still, she deserved a shot at happiness somewhere bigger and better than a town like Hallies Falls. Walking away wasn’t so easy that time, but her family needed her and he had a job to do. When she came around a third time, he’d had enough. Randi Whittaker had been given two chances to escape, and now it was time for Rome to take his. This time, the only way Randi would be leaving Hallies Falls was on the back of Rome’s bike.

DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

Darker: Fifty Shades Darker as Told by Christian by E L James — New Release!!

“Their scorching, sensual affair ended in heartbreak and recrimination, but Christian Grey cannot get Anastasia Steele out of his mind, or his blood. Determined to win her back, he tries to suppress his darkest desires and his need for complete control, and to love Ana on her own terms.

But the horrors of his childhood still haunt him, and Ana’s scheming boss, Jack Hyde, clearly wants her for himself. Can Christian’s therapist, Dr. Flynn, help him face down his demons? Or will the possessiveness of Elena, his seducer, and the deranged devotion of Leila, his former submissive, drag Christian down into the past? And if Christian does win Ana back, can a man so dark and damaged ever hope to keep her?”

Van by Sawyer Bennett — New Release!!

Can standalone: Hockey romance where a “stone-cold badass melts for a woman who makes his blood run hot. As one of the league’s toughest enforcers, he is ruthless on the ice. He has spent his life running from a secret that’s kept him from getting involved in relationships. Then the team makes him an offer he can’t refuse and he meets a woman he can’t resist.

She’s the stubborn one in her family—and that’s saying something, considering her brothers are two of the teams’s biggest stars. She gets what she wants, and what she wants is him. Still, there’s a part of him she can’t reach, no matter how hard she tries. In private, he’s all fire and passion. In public, he freezes her out. He may want to push her away, but she won’t let him go easily. Because this time, she’s playing for keeps.”

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

Can standalone: She’s everywhere.
Ex-wife.
Love of his life.
The last person in the world he wanted to see. And now that he’s working beside her, he can’t escape her. Her scent, glimpses of her smile, even the tension in the air that makes his body hum with the kind of need he’d only experienced with one person — all of it is driving him over the edge. He was certain of three things: Alcohol wasn’t going to solve this. He really was losing his F-ing mind. And his gorgeous ex-wife was going to be the death of him.

Merger by Chelle Bliss — New Release!!

Duet finale: Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer…
He prefers her in his bed.
He has always put business before pleasure, but ever since he met the gorgeous CEO, he finds himself wanting both. And he’s hoping she won’t be able to refuse his latest offer. She knows how to survive as a woman in a man’s world—trust no one. Especially handsome, smooth-talking men who make her panties melt with a single glance like him. But his offer is almost as tempting as he is. Sometimes to gain it all, you have to give up everything…

Judging Books by Shay Savage — New Release!!

Standalone: Her world has been one of enlightenment and finesse, and now she is ready to take on the financial world at her father’s company just as he had always planned. Her future had been scripted long ago, but a chance meeting with a beautiful boy on a bicycle gives her a new outlook on life.

He is far too young, far too tattooed, far too pierced — just far too everything — to ever fit into her world. He has issues, too—major ones. She knows he will never be accepted by her friends, let alone her overbearing father, but there is something about his live-in-the-moment outlook that keeps drawing her back into his arms…

Always You by Denise Grover Swank — New Release!!

Can standalone: He had no idea coaching his five-year-old nephew’s soccer team would get him so much attention from the mothers… attention he doesn’t want now that he’s given up on love and having a family of his own. That is, until he finds himself face-to-face with the woman who broke his heart.

She’s a single mom who paused her life to help her father recover from an illness. She can’t afford complications, and her almost former fiancé is definitely a complication. He’s a reminder of what might have been. [But] that irresistible pull between them isn’t over. Not even close…

Run Away with Me by Mila Gray — New Release!!

Can standalone: Two friends fall into a passionate romance, but first they must confront a painful past… They have been best friends since third grade but as their friendship starts to morph into something more, a terrible event occurs [and] within a week, he’s living on the other side of the country and she is left alone to pick up the pieces of her life in a small town determined to paint her as a liar.

Seven years later, she is still living on the beautiful island. The last thing she needs is him turning up, bringing with him old memories and opening up old wounds. But he seems determined to revive their friendship no matter how much she tries to push him away.

Forced to work alongside him for the summer, she can’t help but fall for him, and soon they’re in the midst of a passionate romance that neither of them wants to end. But both of them know that if they’re to have any kind of future they must first confront the past—a past that most people want to stay buried.

Undercover Attraction by Katee Robert — New Release!!

Can standalone: She’s an ex-cop who used to think there was a clear line between right and wrong. Then her fellow officers betrayed her, and the world is no longer so black and white. Especially when it’s one of the most dangerous men in Boston, who offers her a chance for justice. The only catch: she’ll have to pretend to be his fiancée for his plan to work.

He can’t afford to let anyone see the man behind the mask. To run his family empire, he has to be cool and controlled at all times. But the moment he meets her, they’re playing with fire. Her slightest touch is enough to send him over the edge. At first their “engagement” was a way to eliminate his enemies. Now he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe— even if he has to destroy his own family to do it…

Millions by Pepper Winters — New Release!!

Series finale — Once upon a time, I stupidly believed if I could make Elder fall for me, everything would be perfect.
Now, I’m missing, and he’s hunting, and everything is far from our happily ever after.
He gave me his heart, and I gave him my promise, but true love isn’t sacred to others.
War is coming, disaster is brewing, and I’m not going down without a fight.
Elder is mine.
I am his.
And no one can keep us apart.

Pulled Under by Lisa Renee Jones — New Release!!

Can standalone: He is blond, tattooed, and dangerous. She’s as beautiful as she is mysterious and could be his destruction… Asher wasn’t always a member of the elite Walker Security team, he was a billionaire’s son, who rebelled against his father’s controlling hand, and ended up in New York City’s underground of drugs, rock n roll, and danger. But that is long behind him, and while his tattoos and long blond hair remain, he’s now a chameleon, far more comfortable in a suit and tie than a leather jacket. Or so he likes to tell himself.

But now Walker Security needs him back inside the underground club scene for a police case they’re working. Women are dying, murdered, and the clock is ticking until another victim is claimed. When Asher is pulled back into this toxic world he meets Sierra, who is as beautiful as she is mysterious. A woman who calls to a darker side of him, long suppressed, unleashing it in what becomes wicked hot passion and obsession. But Sierra has a secret, one that leads her, and Asher, to a dangerous place, and game, with dangerous players, and the game is about life or death.

Just Try Me… by Jill Shalvis — New Release!!

Can standalone: Adrenaline junkie Lily Peterson is no stranger to taking chances. She’s been there, hiked/rafted/skied that. But that was before an accident nearly put her out of commission for good. Now, after months in physiotherapy, this former firefighter has a new motto: look before you leap. It’s not as much fun, but it works.

Still, it’s killing her that she has to start all over again, more slowly this time. But she’s going to do whatever it takes. After all, her latest job guiding a simple hiking trip through the Sierras hardly qualifies as risky. That is, until she looks at hiker Jared Skye—and wants to leap into his bed. And if she’s lucky, he’ll take things slowly, too…

Close Contact by Lori Foster — New Release!!

Can standalone: He’s an MMA fighter who’s casual arrangement with her would be many men’s fantasy. She seeks him out, they have mind-blowing sex, she leaves. Rinse, repeat. Yet lately, he wants more. And when she requests his services via the security agency, he’s ready to finally break through her defenses — and protect her day and night.

Receiving a large inheritance has brought chaos and uncertainty into her life. Her ex has resurfaced and someone is making mysterious threats. Then there’s him… he doesn’t ask for anything except her trust. Pleasure is easy. Now she has to give her heart as well as her body… or risk losing a man who could be everything she needs.

Christmas with a Prince by Noelle Adams — New Release!!

Can standalone: For the last few years I’ve been trying to be work hard and be good. I have enough right now to deal with—graduate school, preparations for Christmas, and my dad’s constant attempts to find me a husband. I definitely don’t want to put up with Henry always hanging around, acting obnoxious and looking far too sexy.

My boss forced me to take on Henry as a volunteer for the month of December. I don’t know anything about him except he’s from somewhere in Europe, and he’s spoiled, entitled, arrogant, stubborn… and incredibly hot. He’s the kind of guy I’ve been trying to stay away from. Plus he’s got a secret — something he’s hiding from me. Now I can’t think of anything but him, and I’m stuck with him until Christmas is over.

Penalty Play by Jami Davenport — New Release!!

Can standalone: He’s a single dad and star defenseman who lives for his kids and hockey. He’s had one failed marriage and doesn’t have any interest in going through that hell again [so] he can’t comprehend his unexplainable attraction to a free-spirited female who changes hair color more often than his boys create new excuses to avoid doing their homework.

She is fleeing the past. She has a new start, new identity, and is hiding a big secret. They are a classic case of opposites attract, but neither expects the attraction to extend beyond a few hot trysts… As she grows closer to him and his boys, she fears her secret could rip them apart…

A Winter’s Tale by Carrie Elks — New Release!!

Can standalone: She’s a struggling film student who is determined to make the most of her new job as nanny to a major producer’s son. It might not be exactly the career she’d hoped for when she moved from London to LA, but thanks to her habit of freezing up in interviews, this is her last chance to impress a key player in Hollywood — if she can get this right, then surely he’ll take a moment to look at her work. However, what she hasn’t allowed for is his sexy-as-hell brother – but love at first sight this is not.

He may be sexy, but he’s also gruff and rude and in no way ready to make a fool of himself over the nanny. All he wants to do hole up in his cabin and hide from the brother who destroyed his life. If only he could find it easier to ignore the way she makes his heart race…
