"Beau and Quinn are a dance with heartache ..... Pines brings emotion to life with haunting characters and irresistible romance." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





This military mechanic can fix anything, except his own broken heart…

Beau Wilson’s past is littered with mistakes. But he has two things going for him—the know-how that only an Army-trained mechanic can boast, and his fierce, funny, four-year-old daughter Zandy. Between his two good things, this single dad figures he has the skills and the motivation to make it in his dream job at a repair shop, and give little Zandy the life she deserves.

So, when his mom tells him she’s retiring and leaving him the Christmas tree farm that’s been in the Wilson family for generations, he can see his dreams falling apart before his eyes.

Quinn Allen loves helping living things grow. She’s been saving forever, but she’ll probably never have enough to buy a farm of her own, so running the Wilson Tree Farm is the next best thing. But now the owner’s son is home and the handsome single dad doesn’t even seem to appreciate the incredible gift he’s about to get.

When the two realize that they might both be able to follow their dreams—but only if everyone thinks they’re getting married—it feels like they just might have the perfect solution to all their problems.

A fake engagement seems so simple—at first.

But what happens if one of them doesn’t have a gift for lying?

And what if Beau realizes Quinn might just be the third good thing in his life?

As unwanted feelings start to crop up on the farm, the whole plan is thrown into chaos. It just might take a Christmas miracle (and the wisdom of a four-year-old) to bring this pretend family a very real happily-ever-after.

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time. The Trinity Falls Sweet Romance: Home for Christmas series celebrates a group of men coming home to a small Pennsylvania town at Christmastime, and finding love and meaning in the season.




REVIEW: SOLDIER'S FAKE FIANCEE (TRINITY FALLS SWEET ROMANCE: HOME FOR CHRISTMAS) BY CLARA PINES

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Clara Pines brings emotion to life with haunting characters and irresistible romance. Soldier's Fake Fiancee breathes soul. Beau and Quinn are a dance with heartache that finds it's redemption within the journey.

Mira Marleigh is a writer of salacious society gossip and one of the extraordinary Marleigh sisters—the beautiful Anglo-Indian socialites who have scandalised the court of King George III and his queen Charlotte. Hiding behind her pen name of Aurelius, her world is turned upside down when a scandalous circular she writes sends Regency buck Finnegan Underwood on the run for murder.


Mira heads to Devonshire in a search of the real culprit. But not only must she defend herself from Devon’s most ungentlemanly ruffians, she must also keep the secret of her authorship from Finnegan. Now turned smuggler, he is proving to be one lawbreaker who is very hard to resist.

Choosing You

The Donovans (Sweetbriar Ridge) by Samantha Chase


One last Donovan story

(Sloane's Story)



"The heart speaks to the soul. Choosing You is a captivating swan song to an endearing series. Chase lightens the heart with unforgettable characters, irresistible romance and unpredictable emotion" - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release Date: May 20, 2025


They’ve been in an intimate relationship for three years.
They’ve just never met.

Will Campbell has been in an interesting relationship for the last three years—with a woman he doesn’t know. Every time he’s worked the kissing booth at a Sweetbriar Ridge festival, he’s been kissed by the same mysterious woman. It’s the same thing every time—a steamy kiss that leaves you wanting more and then a disappearing act. But this year? He vows to stop her and convince her to do more than just kiss and run.

Being mysterious is fun, but Sloane Donovan is tired of the kiss and run game she’s been playing for years. It might have all started as a dare, but now she wants more. Now that her sister is Sweetbriar Ridge’s newest resident, she has even more reasons to visit, and she vows that at the next festival she won’t run away after the kiss. But maybe she doesn’t have to wait until a festival to find the sexy man who kisses like a dream. Maybe she can just drive around Sweetbriar Ridge until she finds him.

With the next festival on the horizon, Will has a plan. But that plan goes out the window when he unexpectedly runs into his mystery woman. This time, he’s determined not to let her get away, so he does the only thing he can think of—kiss her. And he keeps kissing, hoping she’ll choose to give them a real chance.

CRAVING YOU (The Donovans: Sweetbriar Ridge) by Samantha Chase 


"The heat of attraction finds it's soul in romance.  Chase takes the heart on a wild ride of irony, humor and temptation that sticks to the senses."   - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)


A Small Town, Second Chance, Surprise Pregnancy, standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author, Samantha Chase


A sexy weekend fling at a wedding.
That’s all it was supposed to be.
And it was, until two little pink lines appeared.


Hailey Donovan was never impulsive. Well, until that weekend at her cousin’s wedding when she met the most attractive man she’d ever seen. They danced, they flirted, and at the end of the night, she threw caution to the wind and agreed to spend the weekend with him. It was never supposed to be more than that—it made no sense to keep in touch when they lived a thousand miles apart. A positive pregnancy test and a mild panic attack later, she kind of wishes they’d stayed in touch. As if that wasn’t enough, turns out her baby-daddy-to-be is her cousin’s new brother-in-law. Things are about to get extremely complicated.

Everything in Max Calloways life is coming up roses. Sort of. He was currently living above his brother’s garage, but the expansion of his cybersecurity business and investing in the family bar was going to help change that. And if that wasn’t enough, he’d had the most exciting weekend of his life with a beautiful woman. It’s just too bad he hadn’t been able to convince her to stay in touch. But his luck must really be turning because Hailey’s coming back to Sweetbriar Ridge for a visit, and he’s determined to get her to give them a chance.

Then she tells him he’s going to be a father.

They may be doing things a little out of order, but Max doesn’t let that stand in his way. He’s determined to prove to her that what they have is real. But first Hailey needs to learn to trust that what’s happening between them is more than just a craving.

✨TEASER ALERT






BOURBON SUNSET by @walker_rose_books releasing June 3rd!


#PreOrderHere  

https://a.co/d/dxiIu5i 

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

💕Small Town

🔥Bachelor Auction

💕Enemies to Lovers

🔥Cowboy




Teller Bailey is the last single son in a Montana bourbon empire. He’s also arrogant, infuriating, and unfairly handsome with his beard and flannel.

Everyone in town loves him. Everyone in town detests me.

I’m “Mad Maddy” Townsend, the only surviving daughter of Bourbon Canyon’s most reviled family. I’m also mouthy, broke, and spectacularly alone.

I’ve wanted nothing more than to get away from this small town and their opinions of me since birth, yet I’m stuck here with nothing but a trashed dive bar and a shoestring budget to get it back in business—or my mom will be evicted from her nursing home.

But there isn’t a contractor in the county who’ll return my calls, at least without including a few four-letter words in their messages. My only hope for competent help is the annual bachelor auction featuring the town’s most eligible Bailey. The prize? One project completed for the highest bidder.

I must be every bit as crazy as this town thinks to bid on Teller. The man I can’t stand will be mine until I’m ready to serve my first drink. All I have to do is not fall for his charming smile, his unyielding support, or the way his name opens all the doors slammed in my face. I’ve never been treated so well, but I know how this goes. When this job is finished, he’ll ride off into the bourbon sunset—without me, just like everyone else in my life.

Readers who love Elsie Silver, Devney Perry, Laura Pavlov, and Lyla Sage will love Bourbon Sunset.

THE PAST by @sawyerbennett123 releasing June 3





#PreOrderHere 

https://geni.us/SB-ThePast





Why you will love this book…

🔥Opposites Attract

🔥Forbidden Love
🔥Summer Love
🔥First love
🔥Parent's story/origin story




Before ascending the throne of the Blackburn Empire in Kentucky horse country, they were just Tommy and Fiona, two teenagers from opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Young love bloomed during an Irish summer set amidst the rolling green hills and lush pastures of Tipperary County.

Fiona Conlan grew up sheltered by her overbearing parents and vibrating with the need for something more. In the summer of 1978, she found exactly what she needed. Ready to test the boundaries set for her, Fiona trained in the exhilarating and dangerous sport of steeplechase, and in an even more rebellious move, started secretly dating a young and brash American she knew her parents would never approve of.

Too much partying and not enough studying during his sophomore year of college had Tommy Blackburn’s parents desperate to get the future heir of the family business to take life a little more seriously. What better way to do that than to send him to Ireland to work at Glenhaven, a massive thoroughbred and breeding operation run by a family friend. But Tommy’s wild ways followed him across the pond and he couldn’t help but pursue the beautiful redhead with fire in her eyes and a wild spirit just waiting to break free.

Tommy and Fiona fell hard and fast, a secret love built from stolen moments. Rife with drama and disapproval, they overcame it all to set the stage for a new generation of Blackburns to run their American Empire. Their epically romantic journey was anything but easy, but you can’t get to the present without The Past.

The Past: A Blackburn Novel is an opposites attract, long distance love story within the Bluegrass Empires series. All books in the series can be enjoyed as standalones.

DEAL ALERT




99¢ MAFIA ROMANCE ❤️‍🔥

Her Target by Quinn Marlowe is now on sale for a very limited time!!

🔗 https://geni.us/HerTarget


MICHAEL
I may not be the official Rossi heir, but the family’s blood runs in my veins. I’ve grown up with violence, vendettas, and the importance of loyalty.
I do what’s best for the family.
But I also know how to color outside the lines.
Penny Lane isn’t supposed to be in this world. She’s my best friend’s little sister, and we’ve worked hard to keep her out of the way. Good college. Real job. No mafia.
But when things go sideways and she ends up with a target on her back, I have to change directions. I bring her into my office as my new assistant so I can keep an eye on her. It’s supposed to be straightforward.
It’s not.
Because I didn’t realize how sexy Penny got while I wasn’t looking. And I can’t seem to keep my hands or thoughts off her. I sure as hell can’t stop wanting to keep her after hours and teach that good girl a thing or two about being bad.
This was just supposed to be business. But the way my body is reacting to her presence…
That’s personal. And I like it.

PENNY
I was never supposed to be here. I’ve known the Rossi and Brennan families since I was a kid, and I’ve always known exactly what they did. But my friends have never let me become part of it. I was on a path to a legitimate job with a good company.
Until a reporter called me, threatening the family I love.
I know what I’m doing. I’m going into the Rossi operation to keep that reporter at bay, and to keep her from sending anyone else. I’m going to protect the family with my own body, if I have to.
The problem is, Michael Rossi is my new boss. And my body wants him for entirely different reasons. Dark reasons. Hot reasons.
I thought this was a good plan. I was protecting the people I love. Getting involved with my brother’s best friend wasn’t supposed to happen.
But once it starts, I don’t know if I can stop it.

Her Target is the first book in Penny and Michael’s story, and the fourth 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 Keeper, which concludes Penny and Michael’s love/hate relationship and features brother’s best friend, forbidden love, age gap, and good girl/bad boy themes.
