DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

From This Moment by Melanie Harlow — New Release!!

TOP FAVORITE! Standalone: “When my late husband’s twin brother moves back to our small town, I want to avoid him. Everything about him reminds me of the man I lost and the life we’d planned together, and after eighteen long months struggling just to get out of bed, I’m finally doing okay. I have a new job, an amazing support group, and a beautiful five-year-old daughter to parent. I don’t want to go backward.

But I’m drawn to him, too. He understands my grief and anger and loneliness like no one else—and I understand his. Before long, that understanding becomes desire, and that desire becomes uncontrollable… We make excuses. We blame our sorrow. We promise each other it will never happen again. But it does…”

Unloved, a Love Story by Katy Regnery — New Release!!

TOP FAVORITE! Standalone: My father was convicted twenty years ago for the brutal murder of a dozen innocent girls. Though I was only eight-years-old at the time, I am aware – every day of my life – that I am his child, his only son. To protect the world from the poison in my veins, I live a quiet life, off the grid, away from humanity. I promised myself not to infect innocent lives with the darkness that swirls within me, waiting to make itself known.

It’s a promise I would have kept… if she hadn’t stumbled into my life… Now I exist between heaven and hell: falling for a woman who wants to love me, while all along reminding myself that I must remain… unloved.

Tempt The Playboy by Natasha Madison — New Release!!

Standalone: “I have it all, money, looks, and any woman I want. Till I meet her and my universe is knocked on its ass and she wants nothing to do with me.”

“My motto: never date the same man twice. I have less chance of breaking my heart that way. Till my eyes land on the only man I’ll break my rule for.”

She thinks she can run. That I’ll let her get away.
He thinks he can handle a woman like me.
He has no idea.
A man who has it all needs one thing and one thing only. A temptress.
Watch me tempt the playboy.

Dirty Little Promise by Kendall Ryan — New Release!!

Conflicted in the depth of her feelings for bad boy Gavin Kingsley, lonely librarian Emma Bell knows he’s all wrong for her—yet the heart wants what it wants. But if she gives into his dark, erotic desires will she lose herself completely?

Passion, drama and suspense combine in the conclusion to this love affair with the alpha and enigmatic brothers. Secrets will be exposed, sides will be chosen, and nothing will ever be the same.

Filthy Player by Stacey Lynn — New Release!!

Can standalone: Every woman knows he is nothing but a player. Yet the first time he walks into her restaurant and flashes his sexy grin, she feels a heat between them spark. Too bad he opens his mouth and ruins it. He may think his money, fame, and sexy looks will attract any woman—but he’s wrong. She doesn’t have time for a man. She’s too busy keeping a roof over her head and taking care of her father to care about relationships.

Lucky for him, he’s a man who’s ready to use all the plays at his disposal and she has just become his new long-game. He also knows that sometimes, in order to win and claim your prize, you have to get a little bit filthy…

Turtles All the Way Down by John Green — New Release!!

Standalone: Sixteen-year-old Aza never intended to pursue the mystery of fugitive billionaire Russell Pickett, but there’s a hundred-thousand-dollar reward at stake and her Best and Most Fearless Friend, Daisy, is eager to investigate. So together, they navigate the short distance and broad divides that separate them from Russell Pickett’s son, Davis.

Aza is trying. She is trying to be a good daughter, a good friend, a good student, and maybe even a good detective, while also living within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts.

In his long-awaited return, John Green shares Aza’s story with shattering, unflinching clarity in this brilliant novel of love, resilience, and the power of lifelong friendship.

Sweet Time by Nina Lane — New Release!!

Can standalone: A rock-hard bodyguard gets a sassy, sweet treat… Stuck in a boring insurance job, she fills her time helping plan the wedding of her best friend to a CEO [and] she has also been trying to attract the impossibly rigid company security chief. But for well over a year, he has ignored her, despite her obvious flirting. And when he finally approaches her, it’s only to assess the wedding plans for potential security risks.

A former soldier, he’s determined to keep everyone safe [but is] forced to work with the maddeningly sexy woman of the thousand-watt charm and irresistible body… Irked by his many months of disregard, she takes her teasing flirtations to a whole new level. And when he exerts his full control, she discovers he can protect everything except her heart…

Misadventures with a Super Hero by Angel Payne — New Release!!

Can standalone: Working the night shift at a five-star hotel in downtown Los Angeles, I get my fair share of weirdos. But none of them prepared me for the night I met him. He saved my life.

Now, he’s my super hero. Too bad he’s actually my real-life boss. He’s got some commitment issues thanks to his evil ex and global empire—and from having to save the city from a maniac out to destroy everything he loves. But there’s something that just may interfere with all those plans. My heart.

Sure Thing by Jana Aston — New Release!!

Standalone: Have you ever set out to have a one night stand with a sexy stranger?
No? I’m the only one? Just kidding, I would never. Ever. Not usually.
But then I figured, why not? My entire life I’ve been good and it’s gotten me nowhere. I’m owed a little fun, aren’t I? A reward for being good.
Sure, a new pair of shoes would be more appropriate, but Mr. Sexy Stranger is more appealing. And when he speaks—in that British accent—it’s a done deal. Every American woman has a hot British guy fantasy. Well, most do. I haven’t taken a poll or anything, but I’m pretty sure it’s a fact.

218 First Hugs by E. L. Todd — New Release!!

He won’t let me date anyone because he’s the biggest cockblock…

He still calls me his wife even though I don’t remember our wedding day.
He said he’ll never give up on me. Not now. Not ever.

Somehow, I forgave him for what he did in the past. But I’m not sure if I can do it again. But he’s not giving me much choice.

Jax by Cristin Harber — New Release!!

Can standalone: A motorcycle club princess and the daughter of a notorious gangster, she’s a straight-shooting single mom deadset on ridding a powerful motorcycle club of their drug cartel connection. But not all players are ready for the game to change, including the ones she can’t see. The CIA.

He’s a former Navy SEAL on their problem list since he showed up for work. Call him cocky. That’s fine, because then you’d have to admit he’s the best at everything. Except diplomacy. She becomes an unexpected bargaining chip and they’re forced deeper into the seedy world drug cartel glitz. Can he be the hero she needs when her children disappear?

In Pieces by Danielle Pearl — New Release!!

Can standalone: Three years ago she was left in pieces…

As soon as he learned his best friend’s little sister was enrolling at his school, he promised to look after her, and promised himself he’d keep a safe distance. But the sweet little girl he’d grown up with transformed into a gorgeous young woman, and she’s attracting attention from people she shouldn’t. But for him, the most troubling discovery is realizing that he doesn’t just want her to be safe. He wants her to be his.

You Do Something To Me by Bella Andre — New Release!!

Can standalone: He has always believed he has it all. A billion-dollar private aviation business. A penthouse apartment in New York City. Beautiful women who know better than to expect him ever to fall in love. And great siblings for whom he’d do anything. But when his business partner passes away and leaves everything to a daughter he never knew about, in an instant everything in his life turns upside down… all because of her.

She always thought she was perfectly happy with her life. But she never counted on becoming the surprise heir to a fortune…or on meeting a man like him. A shockingly sexy billionaire who makes her heart race and melt all at the same time…

Holding Onto Forever by Heidi McLaughlin — New Release!!

Can standalone: The road for him has been carved out for him, long before he knew who his father was. Making sure he worked hard to deserve the opportunities provided to him, he is where he’s dreamed of being [as] quarterback. Life can’t get much better. Except that standing in his path is his life-long friend and the one woman he can never have.

She always knew her future would be in football and dreams of having a successful sports journalism career once she graduates college. After being given the assignment to cover a professional game from the sidelines, she believes that everything is going to plan. Until one fateful night changes her life… Harsh reality sets in for them. One could lose everything, while the other struggles to keep the families together.

Puck Me Baby by Lili Valente — New Release!!

Standalone: “You’re going to be a daddy.” Looking up into his dark eyes as I break the news, I’m scared out of my mind. This man is the most terrifying defender in the NHL, and if it weren’t for my sporty new baby bump, I probably wouldn’t believe we hooked up that night.

But the guy who goes to my doctor appointments, moves me into his guesthouse, and cooks me so many gourmet meals I look like I’m carrying twins? He isn’t scary at all. He’s sweet. And intense. And so sexy I want to smear him with honey and lick it off every inch of his powerful, protective, oh-so-swoony-worthy body. But that’s not a part of our relationship anymore. We’re friends who intend to raise a child together. That’s all… Right?
