Blurb


First, I hit him with my car. Then I hit him with an offer he couldn’t refuse.



Annabelle


My father really outdid himself this time. If he wasn’t already the worst, his newest demand surely gave him that title—if I wanted to take over the family company, I needed to get married.Within the next six months.


He thought he had me right where he wanted me…that I’d marry one of his lackeys. A man who’d keep me in line with Dad’s vision for both me and Parker Industries.


Well, dear old Dad had another thing coming. I was no pushover, bowing to the whims of him or any man. I had a plan. And that plan’s name was Ryder Perry.



Ryder


Red River, Texas was worse than I thought it was going to be when I moved here with my brothers to renovate the old ranch home we inherited from a distant relative. Mosquitos, flies, and the lung-clogging humidity were making me miserable, and that misery was only compounded when a spoiled rotten princess slammed into my truck and had the audacity to blame me.


The next time I saw her, she offered me two things—an apology for her behavior and a million dollars…to marry her.I thought she was drunk. Or crazy. Or maybe a little bit of both. I wasn’t sure.


But one thing was for sure—my time in Red River just got a lot more interesting.

Audio Review: It Started with a Bang (Red River Romps, Book 1)

Narrated by: Jarman Day & Melissa Green

Heat that exudes personality. No one does over the top quite like Piper James. Annabelle and Ryder bring the funny without ever losing sight of the heart. It Started with a Bang is a breath of fresh air. From flirty to frustrating, Green and Day tickle the senses.

PREORDER





Resisting the Running Back by Lisa Suzanne is now available for pre-order in audio!

Narrated by: Tor Thom & Kelsey Navarro Foster

Releasing: June 12, 2025


A steamy Pro Football, Best Friends to Lovers, Fake Relationship Romance from Amazon Top Ten Bestselling author Lisa Suzanne.

When my ex exposes my secret romance pen name to my students and my world unravels, I turn desperately to the one person who’s always had my back: my childhood best friend Miller Banks. The pro football running back drops everything, leaving in the middle of his wild Vegas birthday party to be by my side.

With my life in shambles back home, Miller invites me to stay with him in San Diego, offering both a sanctuary and a chance to pursue my writing career since my teaching days are over. It’s the perfect setup with the ultimate book boyfriend, though we’ve never crossed that line and never will.

But then I make the mistake of telling my mother that Miller and I are in a relationship, and we tell my ex that we’re engaged. Thankfully Miller plays along, grabbing me into the kind of steamy, soul-shattering kiss I can’t stop thinking about.

As I watch my new roommate work out and cook dinner, it’s becoming harder to ignore the chemistry simmering between us. Especially when our “engagement” hits the media and we’re forced to be a happy couple in public, further blurring the line between real and fake.

We can’t cross that line. I have to continue resisting the running back. If I don’t, we could both lose the very thing that matters most to us.

About the book:


A swoony, small town firefighter romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

Meet cute gone wrong… or maybe just right?

Luna

Take One: I met Parker Reeves when I was seventeen. We shared a few unforgettable hours, but I told so many lies he doesn’t recognize me the next time we meet.

Take Two: A decade later, I’m the definition of a hot mess—soaking wet, stranded, and pulled from the ocean by none other than Parker. He’s all rugged hero, firefighter instincts on full blast, and the kind of grumpy that’s unfairly attractive.

The list of reasons why falling for him is a bad bet for me is longer than a country mile. My baggage could fill a firehouse, and his growl is almost as fierce as his protective streak. But when I’m with him? For the first time, I feel safe. And that’s all I’ve ever wanted.

Perfect for readers who love: hotshot firefighters, second chances, slow burn, wounded hearts finding their way, small-town shenanigans, found family, oodles of swoon, just the right amount of angst, and a grumpy cinnamon roll hero who will do anything to protect the woman he loves.

*A full-length, standalone romance.

MONTANA MEDIC'S MATCH (MONTANA MADE) BY EVE GADDY


 "Montana Medic's Match is a heartbreaker that will steal your breath away. From the fire of attraction to the emotion of falling in love, Connor and Sierra hit all the right notes." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Release Date: May 13, 2025


Can a one-night stand become the love of a lifetime?

Veteran and flight paramedic Connor McFarland relishes his playboy reputation. He has zero interest in settling down until one red-hot hookup in Vegas kick-starts his heart. For the first time, he’s not ready to walk, but when they part, Connor realizes that with only her first name, it will be nearly impossible to find his dream woman again.

When celebrating her divorce, Sierra Evans acts out of character and indulges in a sexy, mind-blowing one-night stand. But Sierra’s too wary of men to date and can’t risk being hurt again. Starting over as a flight nurse in Marietta, Montana sounds perfect until she learns that the man she still fantasizes about is now her co-worker.

Connor is ready to commit, but Sierra wants to keep it casual. Then her ex comes to town intending to woo her back and Sierra faces a choice—should she let her fears rule her or trust that the bloom of love she’s found with Connor can blossom into a life together?

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)





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.
