NOWHERE BUT HERE by Renee Carlino — New Release + Recommendation

<— I recently read this book and loved!!! It’s a standalone with a beautiful story, beautiful writing and a beautiful message!! It’s about a reporter who goes to interview a reclusive tech genius turned winemaker in the Napa Valley, and instead finds love in the most unexpected of places…I laughed, I swooned, I wiped happy tears away, and I fell in love. This book warmed my heart and left me with the most wonderful feeling. I highly recommend it for all fans of romance! (Read my Review)

THE YEAR WE FELL DOWN by Sarina Bowen — Latest Book Review

<— I just finished this and really enjoyed it!!! It was a wonderful, sweet New Adult college romance. Kind of an “unlikely-friends-to-lovers” story. The heroine was confined to a wheelchair and the hero had broken his leg in two places but the two of them weren’t going to let life bring them down and their story just brought a smile to my face! Definitely check it out!! PS. It’s a standalone! (Read my Review)

PUSH by Claire Wallis — New Release + Recommendation

<— This book blew my mind!! I loved it!!! Totally brilliant! Check this out ➜ He’s calm, collected, & makes her feel safe but he has a very chilling past: his six previous girlfriends have all disappeared without a trace. <— WOAH, right?? I just had to read it and it was… Addictive. Intense. Unputdownable. Crazy. Twisted. Romantic. Sexy. Just totally unique and unlike anything else I’ve ever read. There’s a cliffy, BUT even me, the most anti-cliffhanger girl ever still loved it!!!! (Read my Review)

ARCHER’S VOICE by Mia Sheridan — $0.99 Sale + Recommendation

Ok guys, if you haven’t read this incredible standalone, pleeeeeeease trust me and get it. It’s only $0.99 for a very limited time and it is literally one of the best books I’ve ever ever EVER read. Ever. 5 STARS!!! ➜ The story of a woman chained to the memory of one horrifying night and the man whose love is the key to her freedom. It is the story of a silent man who lives with an excruciating wound and the woman who helps him find his voice. It is the story of suffering, fate, and the transformative power of love.

THE RESURRECTION OF AUBREY MILLER by LB Simmons — MUST READ!!

<— I’m bring back this recommendation from last week because I’m still thinking about it. This is definitely a must-read of the year!! It’s a standalone that captured the same special feeling we’ve found in favorites such as The Sea of Tranquility and Hopeless. It’s the kind of book that will have you laughing aloud one minute and wiping tears the next. It had a powerful message and more than anything, I found it to be very uplifting. I absolutely adored it!! 5 STARS!! Read my review.

LOVING MR. DANIELS by Brittainy C. Cherry — New Release

YAY!!! This just went live early!! It’s that new forbidden student-teacher romance we were talking about on Facebook earlier and I can’t wait to read it!!! ➜ “It was easy to call us forbidden and harder to call us soulmates. Yet I believed we were both. Forbidden soulmates.” (It’s a standalone, HEA, and there’s not a big age gap between them.)

BENT, NOT BROKEN by Multiple Authors — New Sale Bundle

This super awesome new 10-BOOK sale bundle has several of my favorite books in it and many more that look really good!!! All for only $3.99!! That’s like getting 9 free books!! Also, proceeds are going to be donated to charity!! This is limited time only!!!

BLACK BOX by Cassia Leo — $0.99 Sale

This was a really unique standalone romance that now includes a new extended epilogue!! And the price just dropped from $3.99 to $0.99!!! ➜ Three fateful encounters. Two heart-breaking tragedies. One last chance to get it right.

PERFECTLY DAMAGED by EL Montes — New Release

This new standalone romance sounds really good!! In case you missed it, basically, “she” has a mental illness that forces her to question reality… Then “he” comes into her life and…. ➜ “I’ve told him I’m different, but he doesn’t care… He doesn’t know how truly damaged I am; what will happen when he does?”

BEAUTIFULLY AWAKE by Riley MacKenzie — $0.99 Sale

This was recommended to me by a reader who said the hero is “swoony, sexy, JEALOUS & dominant”… oh, and he’s also a doctor AND her boss!! I haven’t read it yet but it’s on my TBR!! It’s a standalone romance

WILLING CAPTIVE by Belle Aurora — $0.99 Sale + Top Recommendation

The sale on this book is ending tomorrow so if you haven’t read it yet, grab it now!! I LOVED it and regular price is usually $3.99!! It’s a sexy, funny, emotional STANDALONE romance with a broody, badass Alpha hero and a fun, sarcastic heroine.

OUT OF REACH by Missy Johnson — New Release

This sounds like it’s guaranteed to make you cry!! The blurb says ➜ “My best friend was dying and I was in love with his girl.” — *sniff* I haven’t read it but I’m told it’s a standalone romance.

EVERSEA by Natasha Boyd — $0.99 Sale

This was a fun romance between a Hollywood movie star and a feisty small-town girl!! In case you missed it last night, here’s the sale link again. The sequel (and conclusion) to their romance is also already available.

HAPPENSTANCE by Jamie McGuire — New Release

This new release from Jamie McGuire is the first of a new contemporary romance novella series (no cliffhanger, about 100 pages long) and it also includes a special excerpt from BEAUTIFUL OBLIVION!!

COLLABORATION by MIchelle Lynn + Nevaeh Lee — $0.99 Sale

This is a rock star romance BUT the blurb says it’s not a typical one!! The “rock star” is a rapper and the heroine is not the girl-next-door who meets a celebrity, she’s actually a reigning country music superstar… And when they’re forced by their joint record label to collaborate on a song, the sparks fly… Sounds good!!

CROSSING STARS by Nicole Williams — New Release

This was a surprise new release novel from author Nicole Williams that’s a contemporary romance with a “fresh spin on the classic tale of star-crossed lovers” (Romeo & Juliette) and there’s a Mafia twist!!

LOST IN ME & UNBREAK ME by Lexi Ryan — $0.99 Sales

These two books are on sale now. One of them, LOST IN ME, is a “sexy amnesia love triangle” and the other book (unrelated), UNBREAK ME, is a NA romance with no cliffhanger. They both sound really good!!!

KNOX: VOLUME 4 by Cassia Leo — New Release

This is the conclusion & FINAL part of Cassia Leo’s “sinfully sexy and suspenseful serial.” While I haven’t read it yet, it’s been getting great ratings so here are the links. They should all be read in order: Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, Volume 4.

MISUNDERSTANDINGS by Tiffany King– New Release

This sounds interesting! The heroine has finally moved on from a devastating break up with her bad boy boyfriend… But she finds herself trapped in an elevator with the last person she wants — her ex!! And now they’re literally stuck together and end up looking back on the last two years and find the truth hidden in the misunderstandings…

BREAKABLE by Tammara Webber — New Release

For fans of Easy, this is a prequel story from Landon and the EASY story from Lucas’s POV. It is not a sequel and can be read as a standalone, or as a companion to Easy. “He was lost and alone. Then he found her. And the future seemed more fragile than ever.”

RUSH TOO FAR by Abbi Glines — New Release

This is the story from Fallen Too Far told from Rush’s POV ➜ In Fallen Too Far, Abbi Glines introduced the world to Rush Finlay, the charming son of a famous rock star, and Blaire Wynn, a fish out of water who rode into the resort town of Rosemary Beach, Florida, in a pick-up truck with a shotgun. It only took a summer to change everything. Fallen Too Far was Blaire’s story. Now it’s time for Rush to share his side.

SHAME ON ME by Tara Sivec — New Release

This sounds hilarious!!! ➜ The job: Act as bait to catch a cheating husband. The target: Matt Russo. Find out what happens when the target, in all his nerdy-hot glory, turns out to be not such a scumbag after all… (Book #1 is Shame On You but both are standalones)

A BEAUTIFUL DISTRACTION by Kelsie Leverich — New Release

“There’s nothing’s more dangerous than a bad boy with a broken heart…” <— I love the tagline and this also has a military hero!! The hero is home from deployment and “ravaged by memories of his heartbreak.” But little does the heroine know, “this bad boy can love so hard, it can break her.”

FOR KING AND COUNTRY by Geneva Lee — New Release

“When he kissed me, I was shocked. He was a stranger and still so familiar. It wasn’t until I woke up to my picture splashed on the cover of tabloids that I realized I knew who he was. Prince Alexander of Cambridge. Royal bad boy. Exiled heir to the throne. He isn’t Prince Charming. He’s controlling. He’s demanding. He’s dangerous. And I can’t say no to him…”

HELL FOR LEATHER by Julie Ann Walker — New Release

Bad-boy bikers by day & special ops team by night <– OK, I have to admit, that got my attention 😉 This one sounds like it’s got a combo of action, romance and suspense!! This book is part of a series but can be read as a standalone.

PUSHING THE LIMITS by Katie McGarry — HUGE SALE + Recommendation

WOW!! This is literally only $0.31!! The regular price is usually $10!! I really adored this book — it’s a gorgeous, emotional YA romance (first in a series, but can be read as a standalone) and this is practically FREE right now. GET THIS ONE!!! (Read my Review)

ELEANOR & PARK by Rainbow Rowell — Random Find

This is just a random book I one-clicked today. The blurb just made me go awwww so I’m sharing it here in case you want to check it out too ➜ Set over the course of one school year in 1986, this is the story of two star-crossed misfits—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. When Eleanor meets Park, you’ll remember your own first love—and just how hard it pulled you under.

AXEL by Harper Sloan — $0.99 Sale

If you’re a fan of alpha male romance and still haven’t read Axel, now’s your chance ‘cuz it’s only $0.99!! It’s a standalone second-chance romance but it’s the first of an awesome series too!! I highly recommend it! (Read my Review)

SERIES SALE by JL Berg — $0.99 Series Sale

Both When You’re Ready and Never Been Ready are on sale for a limited time in anticipation of the release of the third book!! I have them both high on my TBR!! They’re both standalone romances with HIGH ratings!!

CLIPPED WINGS SERIES by Helena Hunting

I’m starting this series soon since the next book will be out next week. I’m posting it here because the one in the middle there (*points to the left*) was just released — its a $0.99 novella that belongs between the first and second book. The books should be read in order and the blurb calls it an emotional love story between two young people who desperately want to love and be loved but are afraid to completely let go of their pasts. <— sounds good!

UGLY LOVE by Colleen Hoover — New Cover + Preorder

The stunning cover of this upcoming standalone from Colleen Hoover is up now!! This is definitely one of my most highly anticipated released of the year!! This “heart-wrenching love story” will be out this summer and I have no doubt that it’ll be just as incredible as all of her previous books! Definitely pre-order this one!!

CLICK HERE to see last week’s new releases (not all the sales will still be valid, but there were a lot of new books released then in case you missed any!)
