The Roommate Rules (Steele Brothers of Starlight Cove) by Brighton Walsh is almost here. (May 7th)


Starlight Cove's prim little librarian has despised me since the day I parked my motorcycle on her sidewalk. Now our feud has landed us as roommates, and she just asked me to teach her every dirty thing she's never experienced. Too bad I've never been good with rules—especially ones that say to keep my hands to myself.



"Delicious fun. Heat, humor and heart collide to make something special." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

Release Date: May 7, 2025


Starlight Cove's prim little librarian has despised me since the first day I parked my motorcycle on her sidewalk. Now our feud has landed us as roommates…and she just asked me to teach her every dirty thing she's never experienced.

Making Penelope Shea lose her mind has been my favorite hobby since she moved here. But our infamous daily sparring backfires when the town's meddling grandma sentences us to five hundred hours of community service…or thirty days of living together.

Penelope chooses cohabitation with the enemy to protect her spotless record. I agree because watching her unravel sounds like fun.

What I don't expect is to discover my rule-enforcing roommate has secrets—namely, a hidden career penning filthy romances and a list of sinful lessons she's written about but never learned firsthand.

Like an idiot, I volunteer as her tutor.

Penelope calls it research. I call it trouble. Because somewhere between her first lesson and her first tattoo, she goes from being in my head to being in my bed.

Now she's under my skin as permanently as my ink is under hers.

Our month is almost up. But I've never been good with rules—and letting her walk away isn't one I plan to follow.


Reserve your copy.

REVIEW: THE ROOMMATE RULES (STEELE BROTHERS OF STARLIGHT COVE) BY BRIGHTON WALSH

The Roommate Rules
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Audio/Ebook Review: The Roommate Rules (Steele Brothers of Starlight Cove) by Brighton Walsh

Narrated in duet by Charlotte North & Aiden Snow

Heat, humor and heart collide to make something special. Walsh grabs hold of the senses without ever losing sight of the soul. North and Snow deliver slow burn attraction with a haunting depth of feeling. Penelope and Declan are as mismatched as two people can possibly be, yet that what makes their connection, captivating. From irresistible to unpredictable, The Roommate Rules is delicious fun.

BLURB:

Neutral Zone is a friends-to-lovers romance featuring an unconventional hockey hero and his live-life-to-the-fullest best friend who have to get honest with each other when life gets real.


I’ve fallen in love with my best friend. I know, I know. That’s a terrible idea, but it’s going to be fine because we have a plan. A best friends with benefits plan.


We’ll keep spending our days and nights together. We’ll keep cheering each other on and making each other laugh. We’ll keep staying up all night in my room, watching true crime documentaries the way besties do.


But now it’s going to get steamy. Very steamy.


In order to keep our friendship intact, boundaries have been set, and as long as we don’t cross the line, everything will be fine. Seriously. Trust me. It’s a great plan, and it’s all going to work out, and there’s zero chance that everything will go up in flames.


Although I do have a history of accidentally lighting things on fire…but really, that was just a couch. And a house. This is different. I swear.


Neutral Zone is the fourth and final book in Season Two of the Bainbridge U Hockey series, and it can be enjoyed as a standalone. If you’re a sucker for a hot mess hero with a heart of gold and a feisty heroine who isn’t afraid to fight for the man she loves, then get ready for Mickey and Viv!

Having a baby wasn’t in my five-year plan.


Then again, neither was sleeping with a hockey player who hates my guts.


Star forward for the Grizzlies, Leo Richardson is my least favorite person on the planet.


Unfortunately, after a night of drinking and debauchery—on both our sides—we end up in bed together.


It was supposed to be one time—


Not a night punctuated by a lifetime of parental responsibility…and the slowly sinking feeling that I may have misjudged Leo.


That there may be more to him than the playboy persona.


That he may be everything I’ve ever dreamed of.


And that…I don’t think I can let him go.


REVIEW: KNOCKED UP BY #90 (GRIZZLIES  HOCKEY) BY ELISE FABER

Knocked Up By Number Ninety (Grizzlies Hockey #3)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Faber has a way of taking you out of your head to shake up your heart. From spicy romance and sassy characters to ironic situations and a heartwarming sense of humor, Knocked Up By #90 is the kind of heartache you never forget. Falling in love is easy, walking away is anything but. Harper and Leo take emotions by storm. With personality that bubbles over and characters that are hard to resist, the soul is in for a captivating ride.

#5 Forget That Guy (5/12)


"A love that takes on a life of it's own.  Vale pushes every emotional boundary to create a sensually, stunning delight. " - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)


Holly Lorena Cain, formerly known as Georgina Lorena Cain, was well acquainted with rock bottom. She’s coasted along its rocky shores for years. It all started when her mother left her when she was barely old enough to understand. For years, her and her dad struggled to make ends meet. A dying cattle farm can’t run itself, and with her dad having cancer, it got harder and harder to hang on to land that’s been in her family for generations.


Just as she thinks that she’s finally made it, her father passes away and leaves every single thing he owns to their neighbor. The man that’d been worming his way into her father’s good graces while she’d been away pursuing higher education.


But she can’t be mad.


Being mad would mean that she has a soul left, but she sold that a long time ago to pay for college.


Once she comes to terms with her father and the land being gone, she moves back to Bear Pass and with one thing on her mind—avoid Denver at all costs. He can never know just how much it hurt that he stole her life away from her.


Only, he makes it impossibly hard to stay away.


He’s there around every corner. He offers her a place to stay. Makes sure she has a place to work. Fixes her car. Saves her from a kidnapper. Oh, and gives her everything her heart desires.


She stays away as best as she can, but she doesn’t stand a chance against Denver’s determination and charm. He’s there when no one else is, peeling her off the floor and propping her back up again each time she falls.


The gruff motorcycle club president with his scary glares and harsh work ethic has decided to make her his, and he won’t stand for her refusal.


He’s been protecting her for her entire life, and she doesn’t even know it.


He won’t stop now, even if she’s bound and determined to stay away.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A love that takes on a life of it's own. Vale pushes every emotional boundary to create a sensually, stunning delight. From heartbreaking to passionate, Holly and Denver keep hearts racing and readers guessing with their love - hate dynamic. Forget that Guy is a canvas of ever changing soul that dares to be bold and proves to be all heart.
