Read on Kindle Unlimited




She never forgot her first love. Her daughter just found him on a dating app.

One summer in New York City, Gillian Horton met Alex Garcia—the boy who made her laugh, dream, and fall head over heels. Then tragedy struck. Gillian returned home to raise her infant niece, and Alex went back to MIT. Their love story ended in silence.

Fourteen years later, Gillian has built a life in Willet Cove. Grace, the little girl she raised, is now a teenager who longs for a father. What Gillian doesn’t know is that Grace and her friends have secretly put her profile on a dating app. And the first match to appear nearly stops Grace’s heart—Alex Garcia, widowed billionaire and single father of two.
Seeing Alex again shakes Gillian to her core. His teenagers raise painful questions about whether he had a family the summer he loved her. But as Grace soon discovers, the truth is more complicated—and maybe more hopeful—than her mother believes.

Reuniting first love is never simple. With trust to rebuild, families to blend, and grief still tender, Gillian and Alex must find the courage to risk their hearts again. Because some dances are worth a second chance.


REVIEW: SECOND DANCE (THE PARENT APP #1) BY TESS THOMPSON 

Second Dance (The Parent App #1)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Poignantly hopeful, dance with destiny. Second Dance is the kind of heartache you can't put down. From young love to adult heartbreak, Alex and Gillian bring every emotion to the surface. Thompson delves deep into the soul with haunting precision and finds the broken beauty hidden underneath.

Fake It 'Til Christmas by Claudia Burgoa is #nowavailable

https://geni.us/FakeItTilXMas

Available on All Platforms


"Heart bleeds off every page with a heat that will scorch your soul. From the chaos of attraction to the heartache of romance, Burgoa pushes the boundaries of what love should be to get to the heart of what is." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




From USA Today Bestselling Author Claudia Burgoa comes a fake-dating holiday romance filled with slow-burn tension, awkward family dinners, and one grumpy man who might just ruin Christmas for anyone else.


All I agreed to was a fake relationship.
A weekend of pretending I’m in love with my grumpy, emotionally constipated, private-jet-commuting neighbor.
Easy, right?

Except nothing about Soren Thorn is easy.
He doesn’t believe in horoscopes, hates throw pillows, and treats feelings like they’re contagious.
 He’s all sighs, black coffee, and unreadable expressions—and for reasons I still don’t understand, he needs me to be his girlfriend for one very public, very awkward family event.

I thought I could handle it.
Play the part. Make it cute.
But then he started trusting me—with real pieces of himself.

Now I know his favorite coffee, some of his secrets, and the exact look he gives when he's about to self-destruct but pretends he’s fine.

And I’m starting to realize this whole fake dating thing might be getting too . . . well, not fake.
Because I don’t just want to survive the weekend.
I want to know what it would feel like if none of it were pretend.


REVIEW: FAKE IT 'TIL CHRISTMAS BY CLAUDIA BURGOA 


Fake it 'Til ChristmasFake it 'Til Christmas by Claudia Y. Burgoa

Declan Hayes has one rule: never let them see behind the mask.

As the Maple Creek Thunder’s intense and brooding center, Declan is known for shutting down plays and shutting out people. Off the ice, he keeps his head down, avoids the spotlight, and guards his past like a well-defended goal. But when the team lands a new media deal, he's suddenly the center of attention—and under the watchful eye of Elle Martin.


Elle’s assignment is simple: shadow the team, get the scoop, and help the fans fall in love with hockey’s most private players. She didn’t expect to be drawn to the one who refuses to open up. Declan’s gruff exterior hides something deeper, and when Elle uncovers a secret that could shake the entire franchise, she's faced with an impossible choice.


Publish the story that could make her career—or protect the man who's slowly claiming her heart.


As the pressure builds on and off the ice, Declan and Elle must decide if love is worth risking everything.

A spicy, emotional hockey romance with a guarded forward, a driven reporter, forbidden tension, and a secret that could ruin it all.


REVIEW: THE CENTER'S SECRET (MAPLE CREEK THUNDER #3) BY SHAW HART

The Center's Secret (Maple Creek: Thunder #3)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A cat and mouse game that entraps the heart. Hart puts the senses on high alert with an emotionally, stunning masquerade. The Center's Secret blends sweet and spicy to create an appetizing feast of the soul.

Call Me Anytime (The Protectors #1) by Max Monroe 


"Monroe dares to break all the rules of romance ... Hannah and company take emotions on a breathtaking rollercoaster of irresistible humor, unpredictable romance and unstoppable intrigue. From laugh out loud to hold your breath, Samuels and Morton deliver an over the top, edge of your seat, every evolving showstopper." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)


  


Release Date: November 25, 2025


A virgin phone sex operator. A detective. And a murder. Love shows up at the oddest times in this funny, emotional, and suspenseful romantic comedy by New York Times bestselling author Max Monroe.

Down and almost out in Nashville, Hannah May takes a job at what she thinks is a telemarketing company. To her shock, it’s a phone sex hotline. Unfortunately, the only role-playing Hannah can do with conviction is as a cash-strapped twenty-five-year-old virgin caring for a mother with Alzheimer’s. If only her callers were into that fantasy. Instead, one of them is looking for a killer.

Detective Dominic Dunn is investigating the murder of another hotline operator when Hannah’s endearing awkwardness, quirky charm, and fierce devotion to her mother crack his professional facade. Despite the circumstances, their connection is instant and electric. For the first time in years, Hannah finds herself living instead of just surviving—even if that means playing amateur sleuth between awkward attempts at phone seduction.

But as their relationship deepens and the investigation intensifies, Dominic’s protective instincts go into overdrive. With every call Hannah takes, she gets closer to both love and danger.

Because somewhere in Nashville, on the other end of her line, a killer is waiting.

She's the daughter of the enemy.


Justice

Trust is a delicate, dangerous game. I've played it enough to know I don't care to play again.

All I need is my club. Life's easier this way. My brothers have my back, and I've got theirs. It's simple. Clean.

Until she crosses my path.

Stunningly beautiful, she's a walking contradiction. Soft yet strong. Light yet dark. Loving yet guarded. She has reasons to be wary, to protect herself as I do.

Our bond is undeniable. Neither of us can deny it. Doesn't mean I'm willing to give someone like her a chance to get closer than she already is.

About Maddie:


A USA Today and #1 international bestselling author, Maddie is a lifelong reader who became a romance junkie as a teen with her first romance novel, The Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss. From then on, she was hooked, and gobbled up everything she could get her hands on, whether contemporary, historical, paranormal or sci-fi. If there was romance to be found between a strong alpha male, and a sassy, adventurous and ofttimes defiant yet loving woman, Maddie was all over it. As an author, she stays true to those themes writing steamy erotic romance, with a side of kink, and adding elements of intrigue, danger and suspense to her plots.

Maddie started writing as a hobby. Her stories stayed private while she raised a family and worked full time as a registered nurse. It wasn't until 2012 that she decided to take the plunge and submit her first book for publication: Captain My Captain. She went on to publish eleven novels the first year.
