Brystol


I’ve been in love with Gavin since high school. He broke my heart back then, something I’m not keen to forget, which makes our current situation challenging. Our best friends are married, and we’re constantly thrown together because of that connection. When those same friends ask me for a favor, one that is life-changing for all of us, I don’t even question how close it will bring me to Gavin. I simply say yes.



Gavin


I’m not sure what I did to turn Brystol against me, but whatever it was, I’m ready to make amends. I might even tell her that she was all I could see back in high school. When our best friends ask Brystol to be their surrogate, I have mixed feelings, to say the least. Nothing will keep me from supporting her in every way possible because among those feelings are admiration and love for the kind girl I used to know…and even more for the woman she’s become.

Neither of us were prepared for the trials and tribulations that come with not just pregnancy but the surrogacy process—including the strain it can put on everyone involved. Nor could we predict the powerful emotions or the sheer joy of growing a life. There is no way we could have predicted the heartache that would follow.

Each book in the Moose Village series can be read as a stand along, but it is recommended by the author for a better reading experience to read them in order.

He's a superstar on the run. She's a hidden talent with a shattered past. In Sweetlove, their colliding worlds might just create the perfect harmony.


Gia Krane was once the next big thing in music until betrayal shattered her trust, and a corrupt label left her career in ruins. Now, she’s just a bartender with a guitar, playing small gigs and guarding her heart behind sharp wit and high walls. Music still lives in her bones, but the spotlight? She walked away from that life years ago.


Country music superstar Wyatt Cade has everything: fame, fortune, and a wildly successful indie label. But after the tragic death of his best friend on tour, the music that once saved him has gone silent. Seeking inspiration and solitude, he escapes to the quiet town of Sweetlove Mountain, hoping to find peace…and maybe himself.


What he finds instead is her.


Gia’s voice stops him cold. Her presence is electric. And her eyes say she wants nothing to do with him.

But Wyatt isn’t just a cowboy with charm. He’s a man who knows pain when he sees it. And Gia’s fire might be the one thing that can reignite his music and heal them both. When a chance collaboration sparks undeniable chemistry, their duet becomes something deeper.

But trust doesn’t come easy, and the ghosts of their pasts aren’t done haunting them yet.

The Rhythm of Falling is a swoony, emotional romance about healing, hope, and finding your voice again.

✔️ Small town charm
✔️ Grumpy heroine / sunshine hero
✔️ Second chance at fame
✔️ Slow burn with instant connection
✔️ Wounded artists learning to trust again

Fall in love with the music, the town of Sweetlove, and a couple who might save each other, one song at a time.

Billionaire Romantic (New York Billionaires #4) by Julie Capulet is #NowLive! 


 "Capulet seduces the soul with steamy romance and emotional reveals. Billionaire Romantic pushes every button. From sweet and spicy to heartwarming and heartbreaking, Noah and Lucky are an addiction that won't be denied." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release DateAugust 16, 2025


Noah Maddox is a hot as hell billionaire who, as it turns out, is impossible to resist. He’s also an absolute beast in bed...

Details I didn’t know, of course, when my best friend sets me up on a blind date with Noah “Steel”. It’s obviously a fake last name. But then again, so is mine.

From the moment we meet, we’re like magnets who can’t resist each other’s pull. The blind date lasts all night. Then the entire weekend. The best of my life, if I’m being honest.

But when Monday morning comes too soon and we both have to go back to work, I’m shocked to find out that my sexy blind date is actually Noah Maddox, the evil CFO of the company that’s planning to take over my late father’s struggling investment business. The takeover will cost me my job, every cent I have and, worst of all, my beloved apartment.

If only I hadn’t spent the weekend in bed with the devil, cashing in my V-card and throwing all caution to the wind…because how does a girl say no to all those mind-blowing org@sms?

I thought he was perfect. Until I find out he’s not the sweet-and-dirty-talking dream man I fell for at all, but a shark who’s about to take everything I have.

It’s entirely Noah Maddox's fault that my life is now in shambles. I don’t care how drop-dead gorgeous he is, the man is obviously a nightmare.

So why is he obsessively trying to prove to me that he’s the most devoted, head over heels billionaire in New York?

And how am I supposed to resist the hot romantic who has already stolen my heart?



Billionaire Romantic is a steamy billionaire romance starring a hopelessly romantic CFO and the sassy blind date he’ll do absolutely anything to keep. Each book in the New York Billionaires series is a complete standalone with a sexy fairy tale HEA.

HAPPY BOOK WEEK



💥 She’s nearly 40, newly divorced, and definitely not looking for love.
💥 He’s 28, a ridiculously hot pro volleyball player, and exactly the kind of distraction she doesn’t need.

What starts as a one-night thing turns into something much deeper… and way more complicated. 😏

If you love:
🏐 Sports romance
💘 Older woman / younger man
🔥 Sex-first, feelings-later
🤰 Surprise pregnancy + real emotional depth

Then this one’s for you. 




Lena Griffin thought she had it all—glamorous job, gorgeous home, picture-perfect marriage. But at nearly forty, her life is unraveling fast. Divorcing, disillusioned, and questioning everything, she needs a reset. Not another relationship. Definitely not love.

Enter Josh. Twenty-eight, insanely hot, and a pro volleyball player with a body built for sin and a smile that could wreck a woman on sight. Their chemistry is instant. Off-the-charts. Completely unexpected.

Their fling is supposed to be temporary, just a little fun to shake off the dust. But Josh surprises her. He’s grounded, kind, and somehow exactly what she didn’t know she needed.

He’s younger. She’s cautious. And they’re both playing way out of bounds.

But when passion turns into something deeper, Lena has to decide if she’s brave enough to risk her heart on the kind of love that doesn’t play by the rules.

Content WarningThis story contains sensitive themes, including pregnancy loss. Reader discretion is advised.

About Quinn:

Quinn Marlowe is a writer of girls with bad ideas and the men who have to save them. She doesn't believe in simple plots or clean endings... and she loves a good cliffhanger.

She's not sorry for that. 

She's a fan of red wine, cheesecake, perfect hash browns, and really good punk rock. She’s also obsessed with everything piratical—though she refuses to acknowledge any actual connection to pirates. She studied English and Film at UCLA and, when forced to choose a career, chose publishing rather than teaching or being a filmmaker. Quinn lives in San Diego with her dogs, the ducks that moved into the front yard, and far too many cats.

When she's not writing, you can find her riding her horse or playing villain in someone else's story. And she's not sorry about that, either.
