NEW TOP RECOMMENDATION: Retrieval by Aly Martinez (Read my Review)
WOW. WOW. WOW!! This book was incredible!! A passionate, achingly heart-wrenching, and yet beautifully romantic story that kept my heart racing non-stop. It was ADDICTIVE, EMOTIONAL, INTENSE. It was hot, sexy, suspenseful. The story took my completely by surprise and was utterly UNIQUE! I COULD. NOT. PUT. THIS. BOOK. DOWN!!! At first you think it’s just an emotional story of man who is trying to win back the love of his beloved wife (which is gripping even on it’s own) but THEN. OH. MY GOSH… when I realized what the ACTUAL plotline was I just gasped and wasn’t able to even look up from the page since. It was completely RIVETING!!!! EMOTIONAL!!!! THE FEEELS!!! If you’re looking for an intense new book, then definitely try this book. I LOVED IT!!! 5 STARS!! — No cheating, no triangle. The next book will focus on a different couple, but the stories are entwined. Either way, I have no regrets about reading this now and this is easily a new TOP FAVORITE!!!!!!! (My review | Retrieval Duet)

FEATURE: NEW REVIEW: Roman Crazy by Alice Clayton & Nina Bocci (My Review)
This delightful, sexy, and heart-warming second chance romance made me laugh, swoon, and fall in love!!! It’s about an American girl who leaves her cheating soon-to-be-ex-husband to go spend the summer in Italy where she’s reunited with a sexy Italian architect whose heart she’d broken nine years ago when she returned to America after their intensely passionate summer romance. But this time she wasn’t going to waste her chance to follow her heart and be with the man she truly loves — if only he’d give her a second chance… Reading this book felt like taking a mini-vacation to Italy. I read most of it with a smile on my face! If you’re looking for a fun, happy, romantic book, try this!

DETAILED LIST: NEW RELEASES

Retrieval by Aly Martinez — New Release!!

Duet: One story. Two couples… I proposed on our first date. She laughed and told me I was insane. Less than a day later, she said yes. It was a whirlwind, but we were happy. Until we got greedy and wanted a family… It was a life I couldn’t give her, not for lack of trying. Fertility just wasn’t on our side. We sought out doctors and treatments. Spent money we didn’t have. Lied to our families. Smiled for our friends. Put on a brave face for a world that didn’t understand. Finally, we were successful… Until we were forced to bury our son. We were left broken, battered, and destroyed. They say love is in the details, but it was the details that ruined us. This is the story of how I took back what had always been mine. The retrieval of my wife and our family.

Roman Crazy by Alice Clayton and Nina Bocci — New Release!!

Standalone: “She steps off the plane in Rome, looking for a fresh start. She’s left behind a soon-to-be ex-husband and plans to spend the summer with her best friend, licking her wounds—and perhaps a gelato or two. But when her friend throws her a welcome party on her first night, she’s thrown for a loop when she sees a man she never thought she’d see again…

He was the man—the one who got away. And now her past is colliding with her present, a present where she should be mourning the loss of her marriage and—hey, that fettuccine is delicious! And so is he…”

Behind Closed Doors by JL Berg — New Release!!

Standalone:
“I’m kind of an asshole. Running a company isn’t easy, especially when everyone expects you to fail, so being a jerk? It comes with the territory. I don’t have time to mess around, and I sure as hell didn’t see her coming.

She was supposed to be off limits…a temporary employee brought in during my assistant’s maternity leave. But, in the blink of an eye, she became so much more. An obsession I couldn’t shake. So yeah, I may be an asshole, but now, I finally had a purpose, and soon, she would be mine…”

Well Hung by Lauren Blakely — New Release!!

Standalone: Here’s what you need to know about me — I’m well-off, well-hung and quick with a joke. Women like a guy who makes them laugh—and I don’t mean at the size of his d*ck. No, they want their funny with a side of huge… not to mention loyal. I’ve got all that plus a big bank account, thanks to my booming construction business. Yup. I know how to use all my tools.

Enter my hot, sexy, smart, new assistant. Which makes her totally off limits … Hey, I’m a good guy. Really. I do my best to stay far away from the kind of temptation she brings to work.

Until one night in Vegas… Yeah, you’ve heard this one before. Bad news on the business front, drowning our sorrows in a few too many Harvey Wallbangers, and then I’m banging her. In my hotel room. In her hotel room. Behind the Titanic slot machine at the Flamingo (don’t ask). And before I can make her say “Oh God right there YES!” one more time, we’re both saying yes—the big yes—at a roadside chapel in front of a guy in press-on sideburns and a shiny gold leisure suit.

But it turns out what happened in Vegas didn’t stay in Vegas. And now, my dick doesn’t stay in my pants when she’s around. I try to resist. Honest. But the more we try to keep our hands to ourselves, the more we end up naked again, and the more time I want to spend with her fully clothed, too.

The question now is…do I take this woman to be my ex-wife?

Entrapment by Aleatha Romig — New Release!!

Infidelity series: One chance meeting plus…
One sexy, possessive alpha and one spunky, determined heroine plus…
One week of uncontainable, unbridled passion plus…
One impulsive decision, times…
Two declarations of love, divided by…
The sum of intertwining pasts, lies, and broken rules
equals… ENTRAPMENT.

The Playbook by Kelly Elliott — New Release!!

Can standalone: “He was my assignment. Head football coach for a top college, bad boy reputation, short temper, and handsome good looks should have scared me off. But I was tougher than that. From the first words out of his obnoxious, dirty-talking mouth, I knew it was going to be a long month. It wasn’t five minutes after meeting him, he hit on me. If only I had known his blue eyes would haunt my dreams and awaken a desire I never knew existed. This was business. There was no way I would be tempted by him no matter how good looking he was or how many things he whispered in my ear.

He was only supposed to be my assignment. Not the man who threatened to destroy both my heart and my career. I would follow along with his playbook for now. But who would end up winning was anyone’s guess.”

Love Restored by Carrie Ann Ryan — New Release!!

Can standalone: A broken man uncovers the truth of what it means to take a second chance with the most unexpected woman… When tragedy struck, he lost it all. When it comes to falling in love and creating a life, he knows what it’s like to have it all and watch it crumble. He’s done with looking for another person to warm his bed, but apparently he didn’t learn his lesson because she tempts him like no other.

She may have been born a trust fund baby, but she’s created a whole new life for herself. When she finds him constantly in her path, she knows from first glance that he’s the wrong kind of guy for her. Except that she excels at making the wrong choice and he might be the ultimate temptation…

Bargaining for the Billionaire by JM Stewart — New Release!!

Can standalone: He is every girl’s fantasy. Fabulously wealthy? Check. Dangerous good looks, complete with a titillating tattoo? Check. High-powered CEO? Check. Too bad none of that impressed the only woman he ever loved. Since she walked away from him three years ago, he can’t get her out of his mind…

Tired of her comatose love life, she spices things up by chatting online with a sexy stranger. All she’s really looking for is a hot fling and he seems flirtatious and surprisingly attuned to her needs. As their chats become steamier, she begins to wonder just how long she can hold out before she has the real thing. But when he steps out from behind his avatar, he can only hope that she will finally see his true heart…

Dirty Kisses by Addison Moore — New Release!!

Can standalone: He’s notoriously good in bed. It’s not a fact I can confirm through experience, but, according to the lust-driven grapevine at University, he’s a sexual force to be reckoned with… The day my world crashes around me, I’m shuttled off to live with him. Regardless, I’ll do anything to keep my distance from that egotistical, giant ball of muscles. The last thing I want is to become another notch on that totem pole…

But that sheet rock chest, those steel cut abs—a girl can only hold up her resistance for so long before she slowly goes insane. Each night I dream of falling asleep in his arms, and each day I pretend as if I loathe his existence. It’s all a lie. We’re a lie. Staying away from him is proving impossible, even if all it will ever amount to is our dirty little secret.

The 48 Hour Hookup by Sarah Ballance — New Release!!

Can standalone: Who knew a sweaty photo would be good for business?
Now unwanted booty calls are coming in as fast as work orders, and he needs to get away. Cue a job upstate. His new client is hot as hell, but he left NYC to escape attention, not to hook up with the city’s “Runaway Bride”.
With three disastrous relationships under her belt, it’s clear her judgment sucks. And what’s she’s feeling for America’s newest sex god? Obviously another hormone-fueled mistake… But when she accidentally fells a tree on his truck, leaving them stranded in a winter storm with a chocolate-snatching raccoon, there’s something to be said for body heat…

Landing the Air Marshal by Jennifer Blackwood — New Release!!

Can standalone: It was meant to be a one-night stand. One wicked night with an irresistibly sexy passenger. That’s all he can afford — his career comes before everything else. Too bad the snowpocalpyse of the century has different plans for him and [the heroine]. Before the night’s over, they find themselves snowed in at the most luxurious hotel in the city.

Her scouting job of a NYC penthouse should be quick, simple, and definitely shouldn’t include a sexy-as-hell man messing up the 3000 count sheets. Still, she can’t refuse what the weather gods so obviously want her to have. She’ll give in, just this once… Leaving is tougher than either of them could have imagined. But they’re two people who have nothing in common, living on opposite coasts. There’s no way they can ever be together. Right?

Playing It Cool by Amy Andrews — New Release!!

Can standalone: His life revolves around rugby with one hard and fast rule: no women. Sure, his left hand is getting a workout, but he’s focused on his career for now. Then he overhears an asshat reporter belittle the chick he’d been secretly ogling. What’s a guy to do but ask her out? It’s just a little revenge against a poser, and then he’ll get his head back in the game.
But the date is better than either expected. So is the next one. And the next. And the heat between them…sizzles their clothes right off.
Suddenly, this fake relationship is feeling all too real…

Just Friends by Monica Murphy — New Release!!

Can standalone: It’s the end of summer. Just before I start senior year with my two best friends in the whole world. Dustin and Emily are everything to me. We’ve been inseparable since middle school, and when we’re together, nothing can go wrong. But things aren’t always what they seem. She’s turned into a drunken mess who parties too much. He and I have hooked up a few times and now he’s ready to take our relationship to the next level. Yet I’m not sure I want things to change. I’m scared if I take it any further with him, our friendship will be ruined forever. Then there’s Ryan. The new guy. He’s hot. He flirts way too much. And Em has totally set her sights on him.

So when my best friend betrays me in the worst possible way, guess who’s there to help me pick up the pieces of my broken heart? Ryan. But he’s so confusing. Annoying. Sweet. Sexy. I want to trust him, yet he makes it so hard. What I really want is for everything to go back to the way it was before. Before I found out that best friends make the worst kind of enemies.
