HAPPY BOOK WEEK

Soldier's Christmas Promise by Clara Pines is #NowLive!


He made a promise to help her family, but he can’t help falling for the young single mom and her daughter.

Dalton Tyler made a pact with his best friend—to keep the family farm in Pennsylvania going if Andy didn’t make it home himself.

So when the unthinkable actually happens, the first thing Dalton does when he finishes his own military service is head straight to small town Trinity Falls during the holidays to fulfill his promise.

As the hours he spends outside working the land begin to soothe his troubled heart, he quickly finds that he feels right at home with Andy’s parents and friends.

But Andy’s little sister Ella is another story.

After losing her husband, the young widow and her daughter are back home living with her parents. And as they work together on the farm, Dalton immediately feels drawn to the young woman who bears the losses of her husband and her brother so bravely.

Teasing a smile out of Ella’s sweetly shy daughter, Dove, has become the lonely veteran’s favorite pastime. And he finds himself living for the moments when Ella stops her endless chores to share a quiet chat with him.

But Ella’s heart seems to be locked away from the world. And after her brother’s sacrifice and her double loss, would it even be right for Dalton to search for the key?

When a Christmas snowstorm descends on the tiny village of Trinity Falls, Dalton and Ella may be forced to face the feelings they’ve been trying to deny. And maybe Dove’s secret wish will come true…

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time. The Trinity Falls Sweet Romance: Home for Christmas inspirational series celebrates a group of men coming home to a small Pennsylvania town at Christmastime, and finding love and meaning in the season.


REVIEWSOLDIER'S CHRISTMAS PROMISE (TRINITY FALLS SWEET ROMANCE: HOME FOR CHRISTMAS) BY CLARA PINES

Soldier's Christmas Promise (Trinity Falls Sweet Romance: Home for Christmas, #8)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Pines takes the soul on a journey of healing that is both uplifting and heartbreaking. Dalton and Ella are a match made in heartache. Loss brings them together, but hope becomes something more. Soldier's Christmas Promise is as haunting as it is profound. An endearment that turns beautifully broken into a poignant romance.

Second Bloom by Tess Thompson is #nowavailable!


"Second Bloom is a heartbreaker with heartwarming tendencies.  From irresistible characters to unpredictable circumstance, Esme and Grady are a sweet surrender I'd gladly experience again and again." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

Read Now With Kindle Unlimited





She's been looking for the right man her entire life.
Everyone knows who it is—except her.


Single mom Esme Taylor doesn't do risk. Not anymore. She runs her flower shop in the small coastal town of Willet Cove, raises two kids, and never again depends on a man who might leave when things get hard.


But there's one man she lets close.


Grady Nash has been her best friend for five years. He fixes what breaks, shows up when she calls, and loves her kids unconditionally. He feels like everything she needs.


Which is exactly the problem.


Because Grady runs a surf shop, lives simply, and seems content with very little. To Esme—who needs security, stability, a man with a future—he looks like everything she can't afford to risk.


What she doesn't know is that Grady is hiding a past so toxic, he'll do anything to keep it from touching her life.


A past that comes with a fortune he's never claimed. A scandal that destroyed everything he was. And a truth that—if it ever surfaces—could bring danger and scrutiny crashing down on the family he's sworn to protect.


When buried feelings force them past the safety of friendship, Esme must decide if she can trust the man who's been lying to her for years.


And Grady must choose between the life he's built in the shadows—or risking everything, including her safety, for the love he's never stopped wanting.


Because some secrets are kept to protect the people we love.
And some will test whether love is strong enough to survive the truth.


A clean and wholesome friends-to-lovers romance set in a small coastal town from USA Today Bestselling author Tess Thompson.



REVIEW: SECOND BLOOM (THE PARENT APP) BY TESS THOMPSON 

Second Bloom (The Parent App #3)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Second Bloom is a heartbreaker with heartwarming tendencies. Thompson pushes emotions outside of their comfort zone and delivers haunting romance. From irresistible characters to unpredictable circumstance, Esme and Grady are a sweet surrender I'd gladly experience again and again.

✔️Redemption Love Story




Blurb:

Hot-heated. Stubborn. Absolutely no impulse control.

That’s who I am, according to my brothers and business partners. We run one of the top companies in the country, and we’re growing fast. When I start interviewing for a key position, my brothers firmly advise me against hiring Kinley.

Of course, I hire her anyway, and not just because she’s insanely gorgeous.

She’s hard-working, ambitious, and a perfect match. Unfortunately, she comes with baggage. Her ex framed her in an infamous corporate scandal. She was cleared in the court, yet the media was unforgiving.

But Kinley isn’t the woman the headlines painted.

She’s not conniving. She’s smart.

She’s not cold. She’s careful.

And she’s not distant. She just won’t allow to let anyone get too close.

But that’s all I want.

Despite my intention to stay away from her, I can’t stop fantasizing about kissing her senseless and worshipping her body. Then, when we fly to Napa together to scout a new business, all my good intentions go up in smoke. Spending hours on end with her during the day is too much of a temptation. Sharing the same cabin at night is torture.

I’m tired of pretending I don’t want her in my bed, and my life. More than that, I want to protect her from everyone who hurt her. I’ll fight like hell not only to make her mine, but to earn her trust. Because once I have Kinley, I intend to keep her forever.

๐ŸŒพAge Gap

๐ŸŒพOpposites Attract





I grew up on Wildhaven Storm Ranch, raised on hard work, determination, and tradition. Now I’m fresh out of college and chasing a dream that feels just out of reach—working at the historic Belicourt Resort Hotel while trying to convince my oldest sister, Matty, to let me turn part of our family land into a guest ranch and spa.

The Belicourt has a long-standing reputation for being haunted—full of whispered legends, unexplained sightings, and guests who swear they’re not alone in its halls. I think it’s charming. Mysterious. Marketable. My new boss, Porter Garrison, doesn’t agree. He’s all rules, rigid schedules, and closed doors, and he’d much rather I stick to spreadsheets than old legends and small-town folklore.

But I see potential in the past—in the stories people tell. And behind his cool, controlled exterior and expensive suit, I see the man beneath—the cowboy full of fire and buried passion he’s trying desperately to hide.

Maybe the hotel isn’t the only thing haunted. Maybe some dreams are worth fighting family for. And maybe, after the storm, we both need something to believe in—especially each other.

Preorder Night Fall to First Light by E.C. Land on the platform of your choice!





๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/NightFalltoFirstLight




On this ranch, there will be a reckoning.

Shadow

Her grandfather's sacrifice was supposed to spare her from this life, but his death has pulled her right back home to the ranch she thought she'd left behind for good. Now she's fighting with her brother for the right to save it. She has a plan but no one will listen to her.

Her brother's solution is to bring in outsiders, that's what she says. He claims without the club's help, the ranch is doomed. 

But I see the genius in Della's vision. 

And this ain't our first rodeo. Literally. 

Now we're up against more than just her brother. Between small minds, big business, and a bunch of folks who don't think Della belongs here, she's determined to prove everyone wrong. And I'm determined to prove to her the spark that's igniting between us is a whole lot more than basic attraction. Can we protect what's rightfully hers—and ours—or will outside forces burn our new dreams to ashes?

๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/DaddysBrokenBride




Twenty years ago, I watched them put the only boy I’ve ever loved in the ground. And I buried my heart with him.

But now he’s back. No longer a boy, but a man, even stronger and fiercer than I remember.

He says he can’t allow me to return home. That I know too much, that I’ll be in too much danger if I leave.

When I try to run, he just drags me back, punishing me in increasingly painful and humiliating ways. Stripping me bare in front of this depraved altar as he says the vows he believes will bind us together for eternity.

But I can’t give in. Can’t give him the obedience he demands of me.

Because there are two things I know with absolute certainty to be true: The people we love always leave us.

And that losing him again will shatter me beyond repair.

'Til death do we part.

Her flight instructor is keeping secrets...


Will they save her or sacrifice her in the end?

A Bond of Fire & Fury by Brenda Trim is a brand new romantasy you can preorder now!!


Welcome to Thornwick Academy, where you'll find:

๐Ÿ‰ The Dragon - Ancient, volatile, and hungry for a rider who can handle his heat
✨ The Heroine - A thirty-two-year-old failure with a secret she doesn't even know she's keeping
⚔️ The Captain - The man who teaches her to fly by day and haunts her dreams by night
๐Ÿฐ The Stakes - A royal bloodline, a systematic massacre, and a love that could be a literal death trap  



Preorder A Bond of Fire & Fury by Brenda Trim today!

๐Ÿ”— https://geni.us/FireandFury




At thirty-two, I'm too old for this. The dragon that chose me has already killed three riders. And my instructor knows exactly what I am—he's just not telling me.

I've spent three decades perfecting failure. College dropout. Fired barista. Retail disaster. Freelance photographer who couldn't book a gig. When a military recruiter offers me a spot at Thornwick Academy, I'm desperate enough to ignore every red flag.

I expect boot camp. I get creatures that shouldn’t exist.

Thornwick isn't a military academy—it's a hunting ground for an ancient war, where legacy families bond with Sovereigns or die trying. These cadets have trained since childhood. They know the protocols, the bloodline politics, the secret history of this place. I learned magic existed seventy-two hours ago.

Then Obsidian chooses me.

A black dragon. A mountain-shaking force that killed his last three potential riders. Ancient, volatile, and now mine. The academy gives me two weeks before I'm added to his body count.

But my flight instructor? He's already decided I'll survive.

Captain Kael Blackwater is devastating and dangerous, pushing me past every limit while watching me like I'm a bomb he's trying to defuse. He trains me like my life depends on it—because it does. What I don't understand is why.

Why does he look at me like he knows something I don't?

Why are black dragon riders being systematically murdered, their deaths staged as training accidents?

Why are pale creatures with needle-sharp teeth suddenly hunting bonded dragons, draining their blood, leaving corpses that all lead back to me?

Kael has answers. About black dragons. About a royal bloodline supposedly exterminated centuries ago. About what I am and why Obsidian chose a thirty-two-year-old foster kid with no magic, no family, no right to be here.

He's keeping me alive by keeping me in the dark.

And I'm falling for him anyway—for the man who's either my protector or my handler, who teaches me to fly while hiding the truth about why things with teeth are hunting me, who might have orders to eliminate me the second I become too dangerous.

The Bonding Ceremony was supposed to be the hard part. No one warned me that the real test is surviving what I'm becoming.

Welcome to Thornwick Academy, where:

Dragons choose riders (or kill them)


Instructors keep deadly secrets about your bloodline


Something is hunting bonded Sovereigns and draining them dry


The man training you might be the one ordered to end you


Being chosen isn't an honor—it's a target on your back
