BOOK BUZZ (DEALS, REVEALS AND NEW/UPCOMING RELEASES FOR TUESDAY, MAY 27, 2025)

 








๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ #ICYMI: NEW RELEASE ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ









Confronting my family’s nemesis wasn’t on my to-do list. Neither was falling for him.


After my difficult divorce, I thought my life was over. But now, I’m happier and more successful than I could’ve ever imagined. My cosmetics business is thriving and I’m almost ready to get back out there and find Mr. Right. Almost.


When I hear that a therapy ranch on the Bayou is seeking an investor, I jump at the opportunity. I know only too well that spending time with animals is healing.


When I visit the owners to ask for details, I find out I’m not the only one interested. Zachary LeBlanc is also there to make an offer. Why is that a problem? His family ruined my family’s reputation. He immediately tries to discredit me in front of the owners. Needless to say, I’m ready to give Zachary LeBlanc a piece of my mind.


Days later, I spot Zachary in the French Quarter, at the edge of the Mississippi River. As I hurry over to give it to him good, the unthinkable happens and I fall into the river! I’m certain I’ll drown, but he somehow pulls me out. That’s when I see an entirely new side to this man — though maybe I’m still in shock from the trauma. Zachary is kind and patient, but before long, we’re back to arguing again.


And that’s when he kisses me! After he pulls back, I wonder if his intention was to shut me up, or if he’s truly attracted to me.


One thing I know for sure; I've met my match in Zachary Leblanc. Because I'm not going down without a fight, and neither is he.


There are so many reasons why we can’t be together. So why am I ignoring all of them?

A HONEY FOR THE BEEKEEPER (BISHOP HONEY BEE FARM #1) BY NINA CRESPO


"Haunting finds a reason to smile."  - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)



Release DateMay 27, 2025


She never stayed in one place for long…
Until she felt the sweet sting of love.


Brooke Bishop thrives on adventure, from skiing slopes to sailing yachts—anything to avoid her family's bee farm. But when Brooke and her estranged sister inherit the farm, she’s stuck there until her sister can buy her out. And then Brooke meets country singer Gable Kincaid—and she finds herself wondering if wanderlust is a bit overrated…

Seeking refuge from fame and a painful past, Gable finds Brooke is just the balm he needs. As their budding attraction blossoms, the music industry he’s trying to avoid threatens to reclaim Gable. And Brooke would rather head out of town than feel the sting of that loss. As they’re pulled down separate paths, will Brooke and Gable discover that, sometimes, home is a place found in each other?

From New York Times Bestselling Author, J.C. Reed, comes a new, hot, romantic novel.

The guy I just met at the mansion I inherited from a complete stranger? He's drop-dead gorgeous. Sexy. And rude with a Capital R. Turns out he's not the hot gardener as I wrongly assumed. He's not only a famous rockstar who grew up in the house, he's also ready to fight for it. And being both hot-headed and Irish, he's going to fight hard and dirty. I'm not moving out. Full Stop.

But neither is he.

So we agree on some simple rules.

We'll play roommates for a while. What could possibly go wrong? Living together with an Irish Hothead will surely cause a major storm. Let's hope bracing that storm won't turn into a hurricane.

This Feeling by @authorkellyelliott is #NowLive!


"A bundle of hijinx that stirs up the senses and sticks to the heart." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Release DateMay 27, 2025


Is there anything worse than getting dumped by your boyfriend in a very public, very humiliating way? How about agreeing to fake-date the jerk to help get his matchmaking mother off his back and make his new love interest jealous?


My friends and family don’t think so, but I’m getting Giants season tickets out of the deal. I can do anything for a short couple of months, right? However, when my ex’s sexier older brother, Delcan, moves back home, I realize I’m not that confident after all.


For five years, I’ve avoided Moose Village, New York, as much as possible for one reason: the girl I’ve crushed on since high school was already spoken for—by my brother. Now discharged from the military, I’m coming home, tentatively heartened by the fact that they’re no longer a couple. Except…it seems they are. But something’s different this time. Harper doesn’t seem as smitten as she was the first time around. Meanwhile, the chemistry sizzling between us is what I’ve dreamed of for years.


Even if I’m able to get to the bottom of the weird behavior between my brother and Harper, I’ve gone from one dangerous career to another. I’ve already got my anxious mother badgering me to quit. Will my career choice be too much for Harper, too?


I can only hope this feeling between the two of us is enough.

REVIEW: THIS FEELING (MOOSE VILLAGE) BY KELLY ELLIOTT 

This Feeling (Moose Village #2)This Feeling by Kelly Elliott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A bundle of hijinx that stirs up the senses and sticks to the heart. Elliott keeps the emotion and sprinkles in bits of humor. This Feeling is an ironic, captivation that delivers vulnerable and strength with a burst of hope. Elliott steps outside of her comfort zone with soulful results.

SILVERLEAF RAPIDS (A RANSOM CANYON NOVEL) BY JODI THOMAS


"Thomas celebrates family legacy with a haunting flair that embraces emotions and tempts the senses. Irresistible wraps the soul within it's warm embrace and refuses to let go." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic) 




Release Date: May 27, 2025


The captivating prequel to Ransom Canyon, now a Netflix series starring Minka Kelly and Josh Duhamel!

Virgin River meets Yellowstone against the breathtaking, rugged backdrop of West Texas in this compelling, emotional origin story behind New York Times bestselling author Jodi Thomas’s Ransom Canyon saga—filled with love, challenges, and a timeless passion for the land and its people.

Deep in the heart of Texas, five generations of Kirklands built the sprawling Double K Ranch, battling fire and frost, outlaws and disease. It’s said the dirt flows through their veins as sure as Silverleaf Rapids flows through Ransom Canyon. But the canyon also had a way of becoming part of just about anyone who landed there . . .

19-year-old Staten Kirkland was studying at Texas Tech when he got the news that the grandfather who raised him, J.R. Kirkland, was fighting for his life. Now Staten would have to leave college behind, not to mention the girl he loved. And he’d have to grow up overnight. More than that, he’d have to become a boss—the boss—running thousands of acres of ranch. He’d always hated change. But change was barreling toward him . . .

Rootless and stuck in the dull routine that was her life, college professor Charlotte Lane escaped into fiction. But now she was restless for a change—in the form of being the new high school teacher at the small town bordering Ransom Canyon. Still, at this point in her life, what if she couldn’t change—or even remember how? Maybe she’d find others to show her the way . . .

The youngest of six, Peggy Warner came last in every way, not even worth sending to college. Now 27, she’s never left home and lives in service to her aging parents and her married siblings’ growing families. But she still has dreams—and under the big sky overlooking Ransom Canyon they may come true . . .

Thunder Pass by Jennifer Bernard is #availablenow!

https://geni.us/ThunderPass

Available on All Platforms





She ran from a cult. He’s chasing a ghost. Together, they might just outrun the past.

Ruth Chilkoot has daddy issues. She thought they were taken care of when her father Luke went to prison. But suddenly he’s back, and the family is becoming more cult-like than ever. It’s time for Ruth to make her escape. Nearby Firelight Ridge is eye-opening for a woman who’s spent her life in seclusion. She’s already learned the hard way—courtesy of the handsome local mechanic—that a kiss doesn’t equal marriage in the “real” world. Thanks to that humiliation, she keeps her distance from Gunnar. Fortunately, she has something to focus on—discovering what nefarious plans her father is concocting at the family compound.

Gunnar Amundsen also has daddy issues. His father Anthony disappeared from Firelight Ridge years ago and hasn’t been seen since. But Gunnar knows his dad’s still alive, and so he’s stayed in the tiny Alaskan village, running the only gas station, becoming entrenched in his community…and trying to forget the shy, beguiling redhead from the Chilkoot clan he never should have kissed. Fortunately, his half-sister gives him a mystery to chase—someone has spotted their father. His trail, shockingly, leads right back to the Chilkoots.

As Ruth and Gunnar’s investigations converge, the pair gets closer and closer. But the revelations they uncover about both their fathers are just the start. Powerful outside forces have set their sights on the tiny outpost, and it’ll be up to Ruth and Gunnar to save the town…right after they save each other.

Property of Shotgun by Janine Infante Bosco is available now and free with KindleUnlimited!!






๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/PropertyofShotgun




When anarchy reigns, nothing is truly forbidden.

From the time they were kids in Brooklyn, Shotgun knew he was meant to follow Irish everywhere. But living in the shadow of the man who got everything he ever wanted has tested the limits of Shotgun's loyalty. So when Irish brutally meets his maker, Shotgun's devotion shatters once and for all.

Stepping up to fill his fallen brother's shoes, Shotgun accepts his new role as VP of the Kings of Anarchy MC. Then the first in a long line of betrayals begins as Shotgun finds himself drawn to Irish's overwhelmed widow. Jade is the one woman Shotgun always wanted but could never have, and he can't stand by and just watch as she and her children drown in their grief.

Heartache pulls Shotgun and Jade together quickly, their connection deepening as they cope with their shared loss. Soon neither can deny that beneath their sadness simmers the potential for a red hot passion. But defying the Kings' code would be a costly mistake for both of them since Jade still belongs to Irish in the club's eyes.

As Shotgun wrestles with the decision to face the wrath of his brothers, chaos erupts, and the new VP finds himself face-to-face with a deadly shot at revenge. But surviving means facing the demands of outlaw justice. Will Shotgun finally claim Jade or will their forbidden love also find its way to an early grave?

Property Of Shotgun is a thrilling tale of loyalty and forbidden love. Grab your kutte and get ready for a heart-wrenching ride that will leave you breathless.

Our bond was supposed to be a formality, but it's far more powerful than that...



After the magical mishap at the Merrow Tea Spot grand re-opening, Kas and I must figure out why our bond has my magic on the fritz. Our mothers say a curse was placed on both of our warring families, and our marriage is meant to usher in a truce. I have other suspicions, and an elder witch soon confirms them: this marriage is more than symbolic. It's connected to the magical rift that's kept our families at odds for generations.

As we dig into family histories, Kas and I uncover old betrayals, secrets, and magic gone horribly wrong. But every step we take to unravel the past brings us closer together—and closer to the truth behind the bad blood.

Just as Kas and I are on the verge of a breakthrough, we stumble onto something sinister. Someone is working hard to keep us apart and ensure that the feud between our families lives on. Suddenly, the rift between us feels as strong as it ever has. Now I'm terrified we'll be forced to choose between healing our clans and protecting the unexpected love we've found in one another.
