👉 https://books2read.com/Right2NiccoyanZheng



He’s fought for redemption. Now he has everything to lose.

Leonardo Baldi has worked hard to repair the damage of his past. The woman he adores is finally willing to let him back in—not just with her heart, but with the son he once denied. For Leonardo, it’s the second chance he’s longed for, and he’ll do whatever it takes to prove he can be the man Jasmine and their child deserve.

Jasmine Journee is taking a risk, letting Leonardo into their lives after years of pain and broken trust. His promises sound good—his touch even better—but words aren’t enough. He’ll have to show her, day after day, that this time he’s here to stay.

But the past isn’t finished with them. Old sins rise up, threatening the fragile happiness they’ve begun to build. Secrets refuse to stay buried. Lies unravel. And when obstacles turn into impossible choices, someone will pay the price.

Can love survive when the ghosts of the past are determined to tear them apart? Or will Leonardo and Jasmine’s second chance be stolen before it ever truly begins?

Note: This is Part 2 of Leonardo and Jasmine’s story. It is not a standalone and should be read after Right: Part 1 for the full experience. For the best reading experience, it is highly recommended that you read Left before diving into Right Part 1.

Slap Shot Scandal by Kara Kendrick is now live in audio!



"Kendrick shakes up the senses .... Slap Shot Scandal is a whirlwind of personality. Harbor and Weston set off sparks that Masters and Wilder amplify with tempting precision and sweet accuracy." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Duet narration performed by: Sean Masters & Emma Wilder


A sexy grumpy/sunshine, enemies to lovers, hockey romance from bestselling author, Kara Kendrick

He’s the grumpy captain with everything to lose. She’s the PR problem he didn’t ask for.

Hockey is my life. Always has been.

As captain of the team, I’ve built my career on discipline, loyalty, and laser focus.

But after a scandal tanks the franchise’s image, the owner relocates us to Driftwood Cove, a small sleepy Florida beach town.

New name, new strategy.

And a bubbly PR consultant hired to clean up the mess.

Harbor Hayes.

She’s sunshine in a bottle. Bright, blonde and opinionated. Worse—she knows hockey. And exactly how to get under my skin.

We clash from day one and I’m torn between wanting her gone and wanting every inch of her body underneath mine.

The longer we work together, the harder it is to pretend she doesn’t affect me.

When lines blur behind closed doors, we make a deal.

Three rules:

No feelings. No falling. No future.

Until one reckless moment leaks in a viral video.

Now I’m not just leading the team–I’m at the center of a brand-new scandal.

One that could destroy everything.

Especially the woman I swore I’d never fall for.

Out of Secrets (Twin Dare #3) by Ruth Cardello is releasing October 16th!


"Seduction dances with danger to find salvation. From unpredictable to inevitable is a wild ride. Cardello pulls heartache out of the shadows and into the light." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Release Date: October 16, 2025



An undercover FBI agent falls in love with the man who may know who killed her stepfather.

My life is a series of rules meant to keep their secrets safe. I follow them because I know what happens when I don’t. I’ve seen the proof of my family's the madman they funded, the lives they shattered. Covering for them nearly made me a murderer.
Then she walked in—all wildflower scent and fearless laughter, spinning a story about a romance novel she needs help writing. Something tells me she’s hiding just as much as I am, but when she looks at me, she doesn’t see a broken man or my family’s fortune. For the first time, someone sees me.
I probably shouldn’t have slept with her when all I knew about her was her first name.

Sara.
She’s either everything I’ve ever wanted and the woman I’ll spend forever with.
Or, she’s not who she said she is . . . and now we’re both in serious danger.

REVIEW: OUT OF SECRETS (TWIN DARE #3)BY RUTH CARDELLO

Out of Secrets (The Twin Dare Book 3)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Out of Secrets is proof that you can't judge a book by it's cover. From unpredictable to inevitable is a wild ride. Cardello pulls heartache out of the shadows and into the light. Enimton is awkwardly endearing and heartbreaking my clueless. Sara is a mirage basking in the secrets she holds. Seduction dances with danger to find salvation.

Love Deep - Blurb


My life is basically a three-item to-do list:


1. Keep my eight-year-old daughter happy.


2. Keep my job at the elementary school.


3. Keep my big, scary dream of being a full-time artist locked up where it can’t break my heart.


Easy. Manageable. Drama-free.


And then Fisher Wright strolls into Star Falls.


Tall. Charming. British. The kind of dangerously attractive that should come with a warning label—or maybe a hazmat suit in my size. He’s here for eight weeks, helping a famous music superstar record her next album.


We have one harmless, flirty conversation at the local bar.
Then it’s wine on my porch.
Then stolen kisses by the falls.
Then… oh no, actual feelings. The big, messy, life-complicating kind I swore I didn’t have time for.


But his life is in New York. Mine is here. And long-distance fairytales? Please. They don’t come true — especially when there’s a kid involved.


So why is he making secret plans to get my art in front of Manhattan’s elite?
Why am I suddenly imagining him at my daughter’s soccer games?
And why does it feel like the only temporary thing here… is the eight-week expiration date we agreed on?


Small-town slow burn. Single mom sunshine and a grumpy Brit. Steamy porch kisses. And one very inconvenient, very irresistible love.

It was never supposed to be this way.

The Trickie Nickies were unbreakable but in the blink of an eye, we were ripped apart.


Draft Night ended with happiness and heartbreak and I was worried things would never be the same, again.

With my brothers headed in different directions, I moved to my new city and told myself I’d make the best of it. It didn’t take long for me to fall back into my old ways and soon, Nic “The Love Man” Loving was making a name with the women of Houston, and a reputation that was threatening to end my career.

I was a problem and according to my coach, needed fixing. Queue the fixer.

Valentina San Ramón was everything she promised to be. Tough, professional and immune to the Love Man’s charm. She was an impenetrable wall and I knew it would take a lot more than a twinkle in my eye and a crooked smirk to break her down.

When she finally let me in, I vowed to handle her heart with loving hands and never let her fall. Little did I know that I was the one that would fall.

Secrets were spilled, and the Nic that hid in the shadows, only coming out to play in the cloak of darkness, was thrown into the light when a jealous woman made it her mission to ruin my happiness.

It was like dejavú, and I just couldn’t let my happily ever after be swept away.

I may have fumbled the play, but there was plenty of time left on the clock to make things right and win back her heart. Then she’d see. I’d always be the one loving her.

But who was loving me?

"Bravo to Ms. Romig for shocking the heck out of me. I never saw the ending coming. If someone saw me reading the last 25% of this book, they saw someone with their mouth hanging open." -The Fiction Vixon

"Nobody ever did or ever will escape the consequences of his choices."—Alfred A. Montapert

Every action has consequences.

Waking in an unfamiliar bedroom in a luxurious mansion, Claire Nichols is terrified to discover that a chance encounter led her into the cruel hands of her abductor, Anthony Rawlings. Claire has no understanding of why she’s there, but it’s been made abundantly clear—she is now his acquisition and every action has consequences.

Learn the rules to survive.

Facing incomprehensible circumstances, Claire must learn to endure her new reality—every aspect of her livelihood depends upon the tall, dark-eyed tycoon who is a true master of deception.

Driven by unknown demons, he has no tolerance for imperfection, in any aspect of his life, including his recent acquisition. Anthony may appear to the world as a handsome, benevolent businessman, but in reality Claire knows firsthand that he’s a menacing, controlling captor with very strict rules: do as you’re told, public failure is not an option, and appearances are of the utmost importance.

Captivate the captor.

To fit together the pieces of the puzzle, Claire must follow his rules. Will her plan work, or will Anthony become enthralled by Claire’s beauty, resilience, and determination, changing the game forever?

If that happens, will either of them survive the consequences?




Have you been Aleatha'd?
