HAPPY BOOK WEEK

Cowboy's Cafe Crush by Clara Pines is #availablenow!




FREE with Kindle Unlimited



He’s keeping his fortune a secret and pretending to date his crush. But if this city kid-turned cowboy wants to land true love this holiday season, he might just have to lay all his cards on the table.

Holly Fields loves her small town, her job at the local café, and even her gruff boss. But life has handed her a difficult year. Her big sister passed away, breaking her heart. And Holly now has custody of her beloved niece. Making sure the bright eight-year-old has love, support, and everything she needs is a privilege that is worth any challenge she might bump into along the way. But when Holly’s mom constantly voices her fears that it’s too much for a young woman to do alone, it feels a bit like she’s just waiting for Holly to mess up.

In a moment of weakness, Holly hints that she’s seeing someone, even though dating is the last thing on her mind. And when a surprise holiday visit leaves her in the lurch, help arises from the most unexpected source.

Julian Cabrera just made a fortune selling a tech invention so specialized even his own family doesn’t understand it. Moving to small town Trinity Falls to be near his sister Angel gives him time to get his head around his new financial position before he has to tell anyone else about it. He works at Cassidy Farm in the mornings and spends his afternoons at the local café, trying to come up with his next project – something meaningful that might actually make the world a better place.

When Julian overhears that his favorite waitress is in a jam, he steps in to help her without hesitation. After all, he has admired her kind spirit and pretty smile since his very first visit to the coffee shop. The opportunity to spend more time with the sweet young woman and her exuberant niece is too much for the cowboy-in-training to resist.

But as the holiday season unfurls, will the two be able to keep up the ruse? Or is fake dating your real crush too hard after all?


REVIEWCOWBOY'S CAFE CRUSH (TRINITY FALLS SWEET ROMANCE: ICICLE CHRISTMAS) BY CLARA PINES

Cowboy's Cafe Crush (Trinity Falls Sweet Romance - Icicle Christmas #3)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A masquerade of hearts that never quite shows it's hand. Cowboy's Cafe Crush is an exquisitely written tangle of emotion that turns unpredictable romance into hopelessly flawed love story. From haunting to courageous, Pines is a master of soulful heartache and uplifting romance.

HAPPY BOOK WEEK


TRUSTING FOREVER (THE MONROE BROTHERS) BY LEA COLL


"An angstful journey, full of sweet moments and emotion. Coll puts the heart on full display. Trusting Forever, examines love from ever angle. Hannah and Seb bring out all the feels." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release Date: February 13, 2024


This Christmas, I might finally find my way out of the friend-zone and into my best friend’s heart.

Sebastian and I have been best friends forever. He knows everything about me, except that I’ve secretly crushed on him for years. When Sebastian finds himself without a nanny over the holidays, he makes me an offer I can’t refuse. Move into his cabin on the family’s Christmas tree farm and be a nanny to his little girl.


I’d love to step out of the friend-zone and into his arms, but it’s time I accepted that Sebastian will always look at me as his faithful friend. Determined to change my single status (and tired of the pitying comments from our families), I jump at the opportunity to participate in the Christmas tree farm’s bachelorette auction. I might not find Mr. Forever, but I might just find Mr. Fun-For-The-Holidays instead.


Imagine my surprise when Sebastian outbids everyone to win a date with me. I would’ve considered it a pity date, until I arrive at the ice-rink covered with fairy lights and enough mistletoe to make even Scrooge a romantic. I’m swept out of the friend-zone and into a hot and steamy night with my best friend.


Just when I’m sure that my Christmas wish has been granted and Sebastian and his daughter start to feel like family, his ex shows up threatening to destroy everything we’ve built.


Will he choose me, or will I be pushed back into the friend-zone?

"From the heartache to the heat, Ryan knows how to grab your attention. Happily Ever Maybe is a scorcher that puts the heart in heartbreaker." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release Date: February 13, 2024


NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan’s Montgomery Ink Legacy continues with a workplace romance that started with a fling and ends with something more.

It was only supposed to be one job.

I know the rules.
Get in. Get out.
Protect the girl, then move on.
Only it never works out the way it should.
Now Jennifer and I work with each other and there’s no going back to normal.

Then it turned into something more.

Gus isn’t for me. I know that.
Only the chemistry that burns between us won’t fade away.
We promise it will only be one night.
Then another.
But when our actions have consequences that could mean the end of our future, we’ll have to figure out exactly what we want.
Even if it means walking away broken before it begins.

* *Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.* *

DEAL ALERT


BROTHER'S BEST FRIEND BDSM ROMANCE SALE
Don't miss your chance to grab Mastering Lexie by Golden Angel Romances for only 99¢!





She's his best friend's little sister and he promised to keep an eye on her... but that's not what he really wants to do with her.

Lexie grew up with a crush on her brother's best friend, Patrick. He's gorgeous, sexy, controlling and arrogant, and she knows that he wants what amounts to a full-time submissive. So far, none of his girlfriends have ever been able to give him what he needs, but she's sure she's just the woman for him. She keeps pushing the boundaries of their relationship, until he agrees to allow her into the club that he owns, Stronghold, and train her. She can't help but wonder, will she be able to prove to him that they're worth the risk, or is she going to end brokenhearted?

Hands off. That's what Lexie is to Patrick, and not just because she's his best friend's little sister. It's also because her family is practically his, they share all of the same friends, and he's worried about breaking her heart. The sweet little Pixie he's always known has grown up into a gorgeous young woman, one whom he wants to tie up, spank and control. She's passing every test he sets in front of her, but can she convince him that they'll be able to make it work before her brother comes home and Patrick has to ask his best friend if he can date his little sister. Because if she can't, Patrick knows he'll remain silent on the subject forever. It's just not worth tearing apart the people he considers his family, not to mention the family of friends that he's made, if he and Lexie aren't able to meet each other's needs. For now, he's going to make what memories he can while he keeps his promise to train her.

He knows he's toeing the line during her training, but he just can't seem to stop himself, and she's starting to break his careful control.

"Destiny's heartache becomes a haunting love ballad worth obsessing over." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)







♣️ 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐎 ♥️

Aldo Ricci

Right hand to Roman Costas. 

Enforcer. Loyal.

Alone. Happy to stay that way. 

Until she walks into his life. 


Violet Nelson

Unexpected. Alluring. Off-limits.

But he can’t stay away. 

The last thing he expected from her was the one thing he’d never sought. 

Redemption. 




REVIEW: ALDO (MEN OF THE FALLS) BY MELANIE MORELAND


Aldo (Men of the Falls #1)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Destiny's heartache becomes a haunting love ballad worth obsessing over. Aldo and Violet take emotions on a magic carpet ride through the storms of life to find the beauty written in the stars. With complicated characters, and soulful romance, Moreland paints a captivating picture of a tainted heart.








👉𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝟔, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒




I rescued her because I had to.

 I  fell in love with her because she gave me no choice. 

Roman Costas 

Powerful. Intensely private. Cold. Dangerous. 

When he unwittingly puts an innocent woman in danger, he does something he never planned.

 Becomes involved.

 He didn’t anticipate the feelings Effie Warner brought out in him. 

He didn’t expect the woman he rescued to become his world. 

All he knows is that he’ll burn down the city to keep her safe. 

No matter the consequences.

The suspenseful finale in Men of the Falls duet by New York Times Bestselling author Melanie Moreland.

Aldo Ricci and Roman Costas

Both powerful. Dangerous.

Alone.

In the world they inhabit, it’s best that way.

Until they each meet the woman that challenges everything in their world.

Challenges them to be better men.

Can the women they love accept that they would do anything to protect them—to avenge them?

Each book tells their story.

Join us in the Falls and discover a whole new world of seduction.

𝘽𝙖𝙙 𝙄𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙢𝙮 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧


I’m Ben Boerboom, the NHL’s favorite puck boy, and Lara's my slamming hot, former bestie. She's also the friend who got away and my dirty, dirty accomplice from those two insane weeks that weren't supposed to change anything... but did.


I wanted it all. Would have wrapped my forever around her finger if she'd let me. But if making bad decisions is my special skill, Lara's is making good ones... Like prioritizing her career goals and the kind of security she didn’t have growing up.


Hard pass on that kind of heartbreak again. So cue the bunnies. Years of bunnies.


Now Lara’s back in my city. Temporarily. And thanks to a burst pipe and a miscommunication with my sister, she’s living in my spare room.


A lot has changed, but two things haven’t. Her goals and the way she sometimes believes my bad ideas are good... like crossing those lines I swore we wouldn't cross again.


*All titles in the Slayers Hockey series are loosely connected but can be read as standalones.
