I didn’t mean to wake up the hottest man in my apartment building at six in the morning, but in my defense… my kitchen was on fire.
Coco
I can’t cook, can’t even boil water without setting off the fire alarm, and trust me, I’ve tried.
That’s actually how I meet my grumpy new neighbor.
He comes over to yell at me for waking him up with the fire alarm and embarrasses me in front of the entire building.
Now my new plan is to avoid that man like the plague and find some other way to feed myself.
Unfortunately for me, my new neighbor seems to have other plans.
Alec
As a chef, I value my routine.
My hours are all kinds of messed up, so having a set schedule saves me from being a royal, sleep-deprived jerk.
Or it used to.
Until I meet Coco.
Now she has me stepping way outside my comfort zone.
I’m chasing after her, trying to make up for our first meeting, but it’s no use.
She doesn’t want anything to do with me.
When she signs up for my cooking class, I know that this is my chance.
She thinks the class is about food.
It’s not.
It’s about me teaching her exactly what she’s been missing.

Read the Excerpt:
SAWYER
“Just like I remembered.”
Her shoulders shudder, and she sounds buzzed as she asks, “Yeah? What did you remember?”
“How good you taste. Your cinnamon scent. The way you melt when I kiss your neck,” I murmur against her soft skin, kissing the column of her throat now.
“It’s my lotion. It’s from Kind. All my lotions are. And bodywashes. I love them,” she says, breathless, babbling as she mentions the brand too, like I needed to know that. It’s sexy, though, the fact that she’s not thinking clearly enough to edit her thoughts. She’s just rambling as I kiss her. And it feels like a peek behind the curtain into her feminine world.
“Drives me crazy,” I say as I travel back up her neck, finding her mouth once more and sealing my lips over hers.
She claws at my shirt as I kiss her. I thread my hands through her hair. The song ends. The car’s quiet for a beat, the only sounds the rustling of clothes, the slide of our mouths, the staccato breaths.
When the next Sam Cooke tune begins, I stop pretending I’m willing to let this night end in the car. I break the kiss, run my thumb across her top lip, then nod toward her home. “What’s it going to be?”
She nibbles on the corner of her bee-stung lips. That just-been-kissed look is real good on her. “What are you offering?”
“You want me to surprise you again, Chloe?” A tremble seems to rush through her. I can hardly wait another second. “Let me come inside, sweetheart.”

Evie and Slater were supposed to be friends.
That was the first mistake.
She wants forever, but he’s always known he’s not built for it.
The last thing Evie Parker expected was for her boss’s best friend to witness her getting spectacularly dumped by a man who barely remembered they were dating in the first place. Desperate to escape her lackluster romantic history, Evie jumps at the chance to spend a month at Lakeview Harbor Resort. A fresh start is just what she needs…especially with Slater—the one person who’s always been easy.
Slater was never supposed to notice Evie. At least not like that. But somewhere between a competitive trivia game and a kiss that definitely didn’t mean anything, he can’t stop thinking about her. Having her at the resort was supposed to be easy. Evie was his friend—the last person who could complicate everything.
One kiss turns into one night and suddenly the lines between friendship and something more are impossibly blurred. They don’t make sense. They don’t fit. But forever might just be possible.

Just a Little Tempted (Sterling Family Crossover #3) by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde is #NowLive!
Release Date: July 28, 2026
I never meant to fall for my boss.
When I was hired to be Simon’s assistant, everyone warned me he was impossible—brilliant, demanding, and obsessed with control. But after surviving two months of his rules and grumpy attitude, I’ve learned how to manage my boss. Maybe it’s my chaotic upbringing or the fact that I desperately need this job, but I can’t ignore the moments when his guarded edges soften… even if he pretends they don’t.
Then one nervous slip in front of a major client turns into a fake relationship neither of us can back out of. Now I’m Simon’s “girlfriend,” attending dinners, traveling for meetings, and sharing far too much close proximity with the man I’m not supposed to want. Pretending to belong to him shouldn’t feel real—but it does. And the hardest part isn’t keeping up the lie. It’s realizing I’m falling for him for real.
Just a Little Tempted is now available ....

CHASING THE RUSH (FOOTBALL AND FEELS) BY LAUREN ROWE
Rudy meets Moneyball in a sexy yet warm-hearted, second-chance football romance for fans of Sarah Adams, Tessa Bailey, Monica Murphy, Kristen Callihan, Lucy Score, and, of course, “Tayvis,” as the analytical, math-nerd, type-A daughter of a tough love coach is assigned to babysit the team’s adrenaline junkie pass rusher.
**DELUXE LIMITED EDITION with interior 4-color character art, designed chapter headers, and stenciled edges!**
Release Date: July 28, 2026
Chelsea Parker, 26, knows football, thanks to growing up with a football coach for a father and two linebackers for brothers. But Chelsea’s true passion has always been math: crunching numbers to predict statistical outcomes for everything from football to stocks to romance. Chelsea dreams of merging her two passions to become the first female head of analytics for an NFL team. But for now, she’s got to convince the powers-that-be at her father’s new team, the Mastodons, the worst in the NFL, to give her that entry-level position in the front office.
Luca Maguire, 26, a pass rusher and adrenaline junkie with a famous last name, knows this upcoming training camp with his new team, the Mastodons, will likely be his last, if he can’t get out of his own way long enough to make the cut. The dire nature of his circumstances is the only reason Luca didn’t quit on the spot when Coach Parker assigned his daughter, Chelsea, a statistics-loving, spreadsheet-making math nerd, as Luca’s “personal coach” for the duration of camp. More like his babysitter, if you ask Luca.
Well, okay, Luca didn’t quit for that reason and another one: the thing that happened seven years ago between Luca and Chelsea as strangers, when Luca’s college football team stayed at the same hotel as Chelsea’s mathletes squad. Luca would never admit this to Chelsea, especially not with her being Coach’s daughter and the newly assigned bane of his existence, but the truth is Luca hasn’t stopped thinking about that cute little mathlete who ditched his ass seven years ago, right before their clothes came off, ever since.

Small Town Chief of Police 🤝 Single Mom on the Run
Changing Echoes by Hayleigh Davis is available now!
I came back to Braeden Creek to protect my children and outrun the secrets my late husband left behind. Falling for the town’s protective police chief was never part of the plan. But when danger closes in and buried lies resurface, Declan Kinley becomes the one man I can’t stay away from. And the one person willing to risk everything to keep us safe.
Fourteen years ago, I left this town behind without looking back. Now I’m starting over with nothing but grief, questions, and a past I don’t fully understand.
Breaking down on the side of the road just outside town with two toddlers couldn’t be a good sign for my fresh start. Having my childhood best friend and the current police chief of Braeden Creek come to our aid is a pleasant surprise.
Declan Kinley was my childhood crush and the one person I never quite got over. The way he steps in to help, like no time has passed, should make this easier. Instead, it reminds me how much I’ve lost… and how much I still don’t know.
The deeper I dig into my husband’s secret double life, the more everything unravels. The name I knew wasn’t his. The life we built wasn’t what I thought. And whatever he was involved in didn’t end with his death.
Now someone is watching. Waiting.
Declan is determined to protect me and my kids, and the closer we get, the harder it is to ignore what’s been building between us. He’s steady where my world is falling apart, and for the first time in a long time, I feel like I can breathe again.
But safety was an illusion I believed in once before.
My late husband left something behind—something dangerous enough to get him killed—and now whoever came for him thinks I have it. This time, I’m not alone when they come looking.
Changing Echoes is the third standalone romance in the Braeden Creek series, where small-town charm collides with deadly secrets and second chances. Featuring a widowed, single mom heroine, mystery-driven suspense, swoony domestic moments, and a hero willing to stand between her family and any threat, this emotional romantic suspense delivers heart, tension, and high-stakes twists.
It’s perfect for readers who love:
Friends to Lovers
Single mom on the run
Protective alpha hero (Chief of Police)
Childhood crush to lovers
Widow with secrets
Small town with big danger
Touch her & die vibes
Found family

He swore he'd never love again—until she became the target.
Leland Hale learned long ago what love costs. After losing his partner in the line of duty, he swore he'd never risk that pain again—no attachments, no futures, no promises he couldn't keep. His work is dangerous, and his world is deadly. Getting close to anyone only paints a target on their back.
Julia never meant to fall for a man who would never be hers, but the pull she feels toward Leland is fierce. Every touch leaves her breathless. Their chemistry is impossible to resist. So when Leland draws a hard line between them, insisting she deserves more than he can give, Julia refuses to settle and walks away - from the club, from Leland, and from the safety she didn't realize she had.
As women begin disappearing from Miami's public club scene—and one turns up dead—the Devlin team starts hunting a predator they don't yet understand. But once they identify the common threads between each of his victims, a chilling realization hits Leland. Julia fits the profile.
Now the woman he tried to protect has become the killer's perfect target. And the only way to keep her safe is breaking the vow that has ruled his life for years. Because losing Julia isn't a risk that Leland is willing to take.

If the coven fails, the gods will die...
And so will everyone else. ☠️
Echoes of Magical Vengeance by Brenda Trim is now available to preorder!
The gods are dying in their sleep. The killer calls it retribution.
It's three in the morning when Artemis manifests at Pymm's Pondside looking like death warmed over. With divine power flickering like a faulty light bulb and dark circles that shouldn't exist on a goddess, she's begging for help with nightmares that are literally killing her kind and Fiona Shakleton knows their hard-won week of peace is officially over.
The goddess of the hunt has never asked for anything. She demands, expects, and occasionally threatens. But asks? Never. Which means things are properly buggered.
The nightmares aren't random—they're echoes of magical vengeance from a mystery cult the Olympians destroyed centuries ago. A cult that discovered how to make gods mortal and paid for that knowledge with their lives. Now someone is channeling their collective rage into a weapon, systematically executing the divine beings responsible for their massacre. And with each god that dies screaming in their sleep, the vengeance spreads, infecting anyone with supernatural heritage and threatening to tear reality itself apart.
As the Backside of Forty digs deeper, they expose an uncomfortable truth. The mystery cult wasn't trying to destroy the gods, they were only trying to hold them accountable. The Olympians killed them not for being evil, but for threatening divine supremacy. Which raises the question no one wants to answer: are they fighting to stop mass murder or just protecting the powerful from consequences?
Fiona's still recovering from nearly losing herself to Roxy's corruption. Violet's phoenix nature is evolving in ways that blur the line between destruction and transformation. Aislinn's daughter is manifesting terrifying new abilities. And they're all being forced to choose between stopping a mass execution and acknowledging that maybe, just maybe, some gods deserve what's coming.
With two days until the new moon ritual that will kill every guilty deity simultaneously, the team must find a third option between revenge and impunity. Because if they fail, it won't just be gods who die—it'll be everyone caught in the crossfire when the boundary between mortal and divine realms shatters completely.
Retribution or responsibility. Murder or consequence. Sometimes the line between them is just semantics and desperation.
And the Backside of Forty is about to find out which side of that line they're really on.
Some nightmares hunt you. Others make you question whether you're the monster for trying to wake up.
