SOMEHOW YOU KNEW

Harlow James

Release Date: July 10 




Blurb:

I never imagined I’d agree to an arranged marriage for over 5 million dollars.

Not to mention that the man I’d be marrying is someone I’d already met once before.

Gage Kingston waltzes into the meeting with the lawyer unaffected—cocky, tattooed, and acting like he didn’t know who I was.

But after we agree we’d be stupid to walk away from that kind of money, we embark on a six month timeline to riches despite the animosity between us.

Now I’m living with the man his aunt thought would be perfect for me while wondering if the woman was going insane before she died to think this was a good idea.

Then the first letter came.

Turns out Diane had a plan to get us to fall for each other while trying to make our marriage work.

Arguments turn to meaningful conversations.

Innocent brushes turn to lust-filled challenges.

And before I know it, we’re crossing every line we drew in the sand.

Did Diane somehow know that we were meant for each other before we figure it out for ourselves?

Or was jumping into a marriage with a man I barely knew one of the worst mistakes of my life?

Meet Harlow James:

Steamy Romance Author

Harlow James is a pen name I use to protect my identity as a high school teacher. Keeping those two roles in my life separate is necessary, but also fun! It’s like a live two lives, and anonymity gives me the opportunity to be bold and take risks in my stories.

I stumbled upon romance novels in 2018 when I picked up Driven by Kristy Bromberg, and I was obsessed. I had just lost my grandmother too, so reading offered me an escape from reality and a chance to grieve on my own terms.

About a year later, I got an idea for my own book and started writing. I researched self-publishing and jumped in with both feet. I had no idea what I was doing!

But now I’ve built a business and hobby that I LOVE! I have an outlet that’s just for me. When I write, I’m not a mom, a wife, or a teacher…I’m a woman who gets to tell stories that no one else can.

My books are the perfect blend of heartwarming moments, full-bellied laughs, and PLENTY of steam to melt your Kindles ๐Ÿ˜‰ And there are always elements of me sprinkled in to every character and story that I write.

When I’m not writing you can find me reading or spending time in my kitchen. I love to cook and feed my family and friends. Otherwise, you can find me watching comedy specials with my husband, camping with our kids, or taking naps. I live for naps ๐Ÿ˜‰

#TemptthemThursday




๐Ÿ”ฅ**NIALL is bringing the HEAT.**๐Ÿ”ฅ
One kiss—and she was wrecked.
His mouth? Sin.
His hands? Possessive.
His words? Irish-accented filth that will ruin you.


From Melanie Moreland’s Niall, this scene is pure tension, deep kisses, and the kind of alpha energy that leaves you breathless.


#Excerpt

๐Ÿ’‹ "That is how I would kiss you, Anna. Every time."
๐Ÿฅต We were not ready.

Nothing prepared for the onslaught of sensation as Niall truly, properly kissed me. The feel of his tongue on mine. The taste of him how he coaxed me to kiss him back, groaning as I imitated what he was doing in my mouth. He licked deep, teased, and explored. He slid his hand into my hair, fisting it, directing me, kissing me deeper, making me gasp as he slid his lips from my mouth along my jaw and up to my ear.

“That is how I would kiss you, Anna. Every time.”

REVIEWFINN (THE IRISHMEN) BY MELANIE MORELAND

Finn (The Irishmen #1)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A dark, all consuming tale of passion that pulls at the heartstrings and entices the senses. Moreland is at her best when her heroes are at their worst. Finn is an enigma that gets under your skin and into your soul. Hauntingly imperfect, but unabashedly, irresistible.

๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/HeroInWaiting

Avery Dawson thought she had it all figured out. A music career, a tour, and the entire world at her feet. Then her bus crashed on a deserted road and she found herself stuck… and in need of a hero.

When Jackson Pole stopped to help the country star trapped in the bus, he thought he was doing a good deed. But the next day, with Avery staying in his house and her fingerprints all over everything, he has one very disturbing realization: Now that she was here, she was going to change everything.

Life in his small town in North Carolina, on the ranch he worked so hard to buy, has always been more than enough for him. He never wanted anything more, and he certainly never wanted a woman. Especially a high-profile, high-maintenance one like Avery.

But when she leaves, intent on starting her tour and moving on from the disastrous week she spent waiting for her bus to be repaired, it turns out he was wrong.

He does need a woman. And only one woman will do: the one that just left him.

Hero in Waiting is a sweet romance that features cowboys, small-town characters, and plenty of romance, with a guaranteed HEA, and is the start of the Southern Heroes series.

NEW RELEASE 






IT'S A NEW PWF ADVENTURE AVAILABLE NOW!


Get Pregnancy Pains & Mystic Chains by Brenda Trim today!

It's FREE with a KindleUnlimited subscription.







๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/MysticChains 





Whoever said "pregnancy is magical" clearly never had to deal with actual magic while pregnant. Trust me, trying to cast spells when your center of gravity has its own zip code is no picnic. But here I am, attempting to save Maine from supernatural disaster while growing three tiny demigods.

Just as I was getting used to my new life of pickle-flavored ice cream and floating prenatal yoga (literally), my nemesis Lyra decides it's the perfect time to unleash chaos. Now I'm stuck on doctor-ordered bedrest, which is as useful as an umbrella in a hurricane when you're a witch with a penchant for trouble.

While my divine baby daddy Aidon and our ragtag magical crew are trying to stop Lyra's latest scheme, I'm left battling heartburn and trying not to turn my well-meaning visitors into toads. (Hormone-induced magic is real, folks, and it's not pretty.)

But when Lyra manages to lure me out with promises of peanut butter-dipped jalapenos and vengeance, I realize this isn't just about my swollen ankles anymore. With more problems emerging and magic surging, I'm in a race against time, contractions, and cosmic forces I barely understand.

Turns out, being a midlife, pregnant witch in the middle of a magical showdown is the ultimate multitasking challenge. Good thing I've got stretch marks and an attitude to prove I'm up for it.

Watch out, Lyra. This magical mama is about to show you why you should never underestimate a witch with pregnancy brain and a score to settle.
