SWEET SURRENDER

Becca can handle his rambunctious twins in the classroom. But teaching Zane to open his heart would take a Christmas miracle…

Zane Lawrence doesn’t need anything but the family dairy farm and his seven-year-old twin boys for his life to be complete. The single dad works hard all day and chases the boys around the farm all night. His life is a little chaotic – but there’s a delicate balance to it.

So when a pretty young teacher at the boys’ school tries to interfere with some big ideas about their education, Zane isn’t about to let her throw their world off-kilter. After all, she’s new to the school and Sugarville Grove. And it’s bad enough that she’s meddling in his business, but the fact that he’s desperately attracted to her makes him furious with himself.

New teacher Becca Hawthorne sees the Lawrence twins struggling despite their potential and reaches out to their dad right away, excited about her first opportunity to make a real difference. It's crystal clear how much Zane Lawrence loves his boys, so Becca doesn’t expect him to be so offended at her attempts to help. Anyone can see that the man has deep wounds, but his reaction to her feels almost personal. She’s not about to let it stop her from fighting for his kids, though.

When he finally relents, Becca is sure that her dealings with the single dad are over. But for some reason, she suddenly finds herself bumping into Zane Lawrence at every turn. Whether it’s the store, the post office, or the flurry of holiday events in town, she can’t seem to stop seeing the handsome cowboy everywhere she goes.

Did Santa send these lonesome souls a pair of holiday matchmakers for Christmas? And how long can they keep denying what seems so obvious to everyone else before they finally surrender?

Sweet Surprises by Clara Pines 


Unexpected Gifts by Tess Thompson 






COMING SOON





CHRISTMAS PROMISES

Laney Gray thought she had her life all figured out—until her fairytale wedding turned into a public betrayal. Jilted at the altar and humiliated by the very people she trusted most, Laney flees the city for Sugarville Grove, the picturesque small town where she once spent her happiest summers. Seeking solace in her aunt’s charming bookstore, Laney hopes to piece her life back together in time for Christmas.

What she doesn’t expect is to run into Nolan Hayes—the quiet, bookish boy who stole her heart one magical summer. Now an English professor with a steady presence and a smile that still makes her knees weak, Nolan is no longer the shy teenager Laney remembers. But as their paths cross amidst twinkling lights and snow-covered streets, the connection between them feels as familiar—and as powerful—as ever.

Laney may be a city girl out of her element in Sugarville Grove, but as she works to rebuild the bookstore’s holiday traditions, she finds herself drawn not only to the town’s simple charms but also to Nolan’s quiet strength. Yet, both carry scars from the past—hers from a shattered engagement, and his from a heartbreak he’s never shared.

Can the magic of Christmas help Laney and Nolan find the courage to take a second chance on love? Or will old wounds keep them from the happy ending they’ve been waiting for all along?


REVIEWCHRISTMAS PROMISES (SUGARVILLE GROVE) BY TESS THOMPSON 

Christmas Promises (A Small Town Christmas Romance): Sugarville Grove - Book 4
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Thompson is a breath of fresh air. She speaks from the soul and touches the heart. Christmas Promises is a heartwarming, heartbreaker that reads like a Hallmark card. Nolan and Laney turn subtlety into a catchy phrase that sticks to the heart.

HAPPY BOOK WEEK



HOLD ME (RIBBON RIDGE) BY DARCY BURKE


"From the beginning this series has been a story of a family united by tragedy but it also shows that the power of love is a burning light that can never be extinguished. Am loving the Ribbon Ridge series." - (Isha C., Blogger Reader Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release Date: February 18, 2025



“[A] heartfelt, family-driven series.”—Library Journal

Everyone thought college sweethearts Bex Holmgren and Hayden Archer were headed for the altar… until a tragic accident sent young Bex running from a future she wasn’t ready to claim. But when she’s offered her dream job at Archer Brewing, Bex can’t pass up the chance to reconnect with the big, crazy family that once welcomed her with open arms—and the one man she’s never stopped loving.

When he returns home after a year in France, Hayden is less than thrilled to find his ex-girlfriend working for his family’s company. He’s finally moved on, and being around her rekindles long-buried feelings he’d rather ignore. But Bex isn’t the same girl he knew—she’s more mature, more beautiful, more tempting than ever—and he can’t resist the pull of the intense passion he’s only ever shared with her.

Have five years changed them enough, or are they doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past? The only thing Bex knows for sure is that for her, Hayden is still the one.

REVIEW: HOLD ME (RIBBON RIDGE) BY DARCY BURKE


Hold Me (Ribbon Ridge, #7)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Am loving the Ribbon Ridge series. Tragedy and heartbreak strengthened the bonds of the Archer family mending what was broken. It's fitting that Hold Me examines how youth and heartbreak broke apart Hayden and Bex's love affair but a twist of fate and maturity may give them a second chance. From the beginning this series has been a story of a family united by tragedy but it also shows that the power of love is a burning light that can never be extinguished.

CALLING ALL MAFIA ROMANCE FANS...

Her Keeper, the anniversary edition, by Quinn Marlowe is now live everywhere!

🔗 https://geni.us/HerKeeper




Michael
I’m one of the most powerful men in New York. Second-in-line to take over the Rossi clan when my father dies. Head of business operations for the entire family. And the one my brother turns to when he needs help.
I’ve never met a problem I couldn’t solve.
Until Penny Lane became my assistant.
The plan was simple: Hire her so I could keep an eye on her. Protect her from the war brewing in New York. Make sure she didn’t get in the way of people who wanted to use her.
But I didn’t realize how much she’s changed. She’s not the innocent little girl I once knew. These days, she’s smart. Crafty. And too sexy for her own good.
I’m not supposed to want her and I’m damn sure not supposed to touch her. But once I get my first taste of her, I can’t stop. I want more. I want it all.
And no one is going to stop me.

Penny
This was always going to be complicated.
I’ve known the Rossi family my entire life, and I’ve never been scared of them. But when a reporter sends me to get information on the family, and I go into their midst as a rat…
Well, the Rossi soldiers don’t let rats live.
Even worse, I’m spying on Michael Rossi himself. Wickedly charming. Smoother than butter. And so powerful that I melt every time he touches me.
I want him to touch me again. I want this life he’s offering me. The glamour and danger of it. The promise that he’ll always take care of me.
But falling in love with him was never part of the plan.
Because if I do, it might cost me my life.

Her Keeper is the second book in Penny and Michael’s story, and the fifth in the New York Rogues: Rossi series. The book includes age gap, workplace romance, forbidden love, brother’s best friend, grumpy sunshine, kidnapping, car chases, stalkers, and heroes, plus enough spice to make you want a Michael Rossi of your very own.

The Anniversary Collection features new edits and bonus scenes for this series, with special edition covers and sneak peeks at future books. For more in the Rossi series, move to Her Rebellion, which begins Dax and Dante’s age gap, forbidden relationship and features brother’s enemy, forbidden love, age gap, and good girl/bad boy themes.

Secrets always have a way of coming out. One way or another.
Alanna
I’ve lived in fear for so long I don’t know how else to live. I work. I take care of those who depend on me. I do all of this while also looking over my shoulder.
I refuse to let others in on my problems. Their mine and mine alone. Unfortunately for me there’s one man who refuses to let me be. He wants to know the truth. Says I need to trust him.
When my past catches up to me, I have to make a choice. Trust those who’ve taken me in or run. Running is what I’m good at. Trust, that’s something I’m not.
One way or another destruction is going to happen. Good or bad, we’ll see just what happens.

PREORDER ALERT




For the Twisted Sisters, peace is fleeting...


Preorder Lagniappe & Lost Legends by Brenda Trim today!!




🔗 https://geni.us/Lagniappe 





For the Twisted Sisters, peace is a fleeting gift and the only constant in the Crescent City is magical mayhem and chaos...

When the tranquility of a quiet afternoon is shattered by the panic of a local magical merchant, I have to rally my sisters to respond. Solid Solutions, a magical shop in the French Quarter, is suddenly a haunted hotspot where lights flicker, objects move on their own, and eerie whispers fill the air out of nowhere.

At first it seems to be a standard challenge. After all, we've faced down plenty of stranger occurrences and no one knows weird better than we do. But when we arrive, everything feels different. The whole neighborhood, usually buzzing with spooky charm, is now crackling with an ancient energy that even Adèle, our resident energy sensor, can't pinpoint.

The evidence suggests something sinister, and it doesn't take us long to realize we aren't dealing with your average spirits. This disturbance carries the hallmark of the Lost Legends, a notorious group of paranormal entities known for outright cruelty and a willingness to escalate hijinks and hauntings into dangerous territory. And that's very, very bad.

Together we get to work digging through history, avoiding the traps set by invisible hands, and trying to piece together the mystery in time to prevent a disaster. But sorting through the French Quarter's endless supernatural secrets to uncover the truth is no easy task in peaceful times, let alone with a malevolent force stirring up chaos all around.

We don't have much time to save the day before the stakes become too high. And this time it will take a lot more than just uncovering ancient curses and thwarting sinister spirits to bring the paranormal world back into balance. The more we chase the thrill of this hunt, the more it seems our most recent peaceful break might very well have been our last.
