Piper Lawson has revealed the narrators for Crash Course!


Narrated by: Lance Greenfield & Savannah Peachwood with a special appearance by Teddy Hamilton




Release Date: October 20, 2026 



A spicy, angsty, slow burn F1 academy romance about fast cars, forbidden attraction, and family secrets from USA Today bestselling author Piper Lawson.

Shay MacDonald was raised to avoid two things: race cars and the Ashford family. But when an injury puts her mechanic father on bedrest, she vows to save his career by covertly covering his shifts at the Ashford garage and enrolling at Ashford Academy–an elite school that trains aspiring drivers and engineers, like herself, for the lucrative F1 circuit.

Keeping a low profile is out of the question when she has a run-in with the Ashford brothers on day one. Theo and Jameson are racing royalty who know they can get away with anything. Theo, the charming and reckless playboy, tempts her to break every rule, while Jameson, the brilliant prodigy, unsettles her with a cold intensity that cuts deeper than she expects.

Shay will always be the adopted daughter of a mechanic, trying to survive unnoticed in a world that was never meant for her. But Theo and Jameson’s only reprieve from their father’s sky-high expectations is Shay. She’s a shiny new pawn in their old rivalry—or a prize worth risking everything for.

When a competition to work on the F1 circuit brings her further into their orbit, Shay is forced to work harder to protect her secrets. But the deeper she’s pulled into the world of the rich and famous Ashfords, the more she realizes everyone is keeping secrets.

Secrets that could shatter her past, her future…and her heart.

Blurb:

He’s my former best friend and my husband of convenience, but he’s not the man that got me pregnant.

One year into my nursing program, two little pink lines alter my reality. 

Add on that the baby’s father wants nothing to do with us and I no longer have healthcare coverage, and well?

I start to panic.

Enter Easton Buckley—Mr. Dependable, lineman with great health benefits, and a stubborn streak that pays off when he convinces me to marry him so me and my baby can be taken care of.

The problem is, Easton and I haven’t been on good terms for years, and neither of us has attempted to fix it.

Yet now I’m living with him, forced to see him shirtless, and wondering why hearing him call me his wife is making my hormones even more wild.

Then I figure out his secret.

And there’s no stopping the flood of emotions and unresolved feelings that come up.

I’m scared to fall for Easton. I don’t want him to be a mistake like every other love interest in my life.

But what if the reality is, you can’t help who your heart chooses to love? Even if they could be the one to break it once and for all?

HAPPY BOOK WEEK: GAME PLAN (LEGENDS FOOTBALL #2) BY ADRIANA LOCKE

 



#NewRelease


#Spotlight




IT'S RELEASE WEEK...

#HBW

GAME PLAN (LEGENDS FOOTBALL #2) BY ADRIANA LOCKE is #NowLive!






Release Date: October 16, 2026



BLURB


The headlines say I’m engaged to one of football’s biggest stars. There’s one problem—we’re not actually dating.

Finn Miller is my best friend’s brother, a professional athlete, and the most dangerously boyfriend-y man I’ve ever met.

He knows where to order my favorite drink. He carries my bags when I shop. He knows exactly how to make me laugh (and other things), while making me forget why
I’ve sworn off relationships.

Our chemistry? Off the charts. Our commitment? That’s another story.

We’re friends with benefits and that’s it.

Then one innocent joke sparks a media frenzy, and suddenly pretending to be Finn’s fiancรฉe comes with a million-dollar opportunity that I can’t afford to turn down.

A few public appearances and one ridiculously expensive ring to pretend to be engaged to a man who knows me better than anyone? Easy right?

Wrong.

Finn is determined to make this feel real. And the more time I spend playing his future wife, the harder it gets to remember why I never wanted this role.

I had a game plan to protect my heart, chase my dreams, and never fall for Finn Miller.

Too bad he has a game plan of his own.

Trying Not to Kiss You – Blurb


 


NYT and USA Today bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series set in a small town, surrounding four sisters. Trying Not to Kiss You is a small-town, friends-to-lovers, secret-relationship romance.


 


Leighton


 


Dixon Turner has always been a part of my life. I never thought twice about him… until now.


 


Volunteering to help him launch his new agricultural mechanic shop seemed harmless enough.


 


But I wasn’t prepared to spend every day with the guy I’ve known most of my life… and start seeing him in a way I never have before.


 


The quiet steadiness of him. The way he listens like he actually hears me.


 


Something has definitely shifted. And when the tension finally snaps, I make him an offer I really hope he doesn’t refuse.


 


Friends… with benefits.


I know a guy like Dixon doesn't do forever.


 


But I’ll take whatever he’s willing to give.


 


Because it’s a whole lot better than pretending there’s nothing between us… and trying not to kiss him every time he gets too close.


 


Dixon


 


Leighton was always there… the little sister who tagged along.


 


Looking back, I can’t remember a time she wasn’t.


 


But somewhere between rebuilding engines and building my business, I realize she’s all grown up.


 


Wanting Leighton and letting myself have her are two different things.



I’ve seen firsthand what happens when you build your world around someone and lose them.


My father never recovered, and I’ve spent years making sure that never happens to me.




Then Leighton happens.


And if I can’t bring myself to love her the way she deserves, I’ll lose her anyway.

Joy Holiday traded small-town life for a fast-paced city career a lifetime ago. She never intended to return to the dusty mining town her estranged mother called home. But when she inherits her mom’s crumbling building, she’s forced to confront the past she thought she’d left behind. The dilapidated structure symbolizes memories Joy would rather bury, and she plans to demolish it and move on for good—so she hires the guy with the best reputation in town.

Charlie Hunnicutt is a hometown boy who has spent years painstakingly restoring each historic building brick by brick. Unbeknownst to Joy, the town’s passionate preservationist sees nothing but potential in the old structure. It’s a treasure, a piece of the town’s soul worth saving. So when Joy, with demolition on her mind, sweeps into town in her sleek BMW, it’s all Charlie can do to keep his cool.

What should be a straightforward business transaction quickly turns into a battle of wills as the two butt heads at every turn. But while they clash over the building’s fate, an undeniable attraction begins to grow between them.

As their connection deepens, Joy and Charlie are forced to face their conflicting visions and decide whether love can bridge the gap between their worlds. Where history clashes with the future, love might just be the blueprint.
