Dark, possessive, and dangerously addictive... LUCIFER is here! 🖤
Life or Death by Janine Infante Bosco is #nowlive!
🔗 https://geni.us/LifeorDeath
The devil doesn't ask for permission, and he never begs for forgiveness.
Lucifer
Wielding the gavel for the Fallen Demons MC means I take what I want. And Jessica is no exception.
The moment I laid eyes on her, something raw and primal awakened within me. She was young, beautiful, and desperate to outrun her past. And I was the selfish bastard who needed to possess every curve of her body and own all the jagged edges of her soul.
My recklessness nearly destroyed her, so I did everything in my power to make it right. Now she sees me as a monster who has trapped her in a lie.
I've kept my distance, watching from the shadows while she tries to heal. Jessie's gone to hell and back, and every time she looks in the mirror all she sees are reminders of the pain. Her mother's mistakes. My betrayal. Her brand new scars.
She wants to let the darkness consume her, but I didn't watch her fight for her life just to throw it all away. And I won't rest until the woman I've claimed can see herself through my eyes. As a goddess. A warrior. A siren. The woman I secretly call my wife.
REVIEW: LIFE OR DEATH (FALLEN DEMONS MC #2) BY JANINE INFANTE BOSCO
Danger finds it's soul, racing through the heart of romance. Bosco sets the bar high with characters that run deep. When an alpha hero and a courageous heroine collide it's cataclysmic. From intricately, unpredictable to emotionally breathtaking, Lucifer and Jess turn hauntingly, vulnerable into a perfectly, imperfect redemption song.

Release Date: August 24, 2026
Markie St. James is officially done with men.
Unfortunately, she needs one to defend her pickleball championship title against her cheating ex-boyfriend.
Her solution comes in the form of Jory Plath, her brother’s best friend, a single dad, and a professional rugby player. He’ll help her defend her title if she helps tutor his son. It’s a simple arrangement. Everybody wins.
Until they don’t.
Somewhere between practices, late nights, and giving the town something to gossip about, Markie and Jory go from pickleball partners to fake dating. And the more time she spends with him, the more she realizes he’s exactly the kind of man she swore off.
Now she’s not sure what’s worse—losing her title, losing the man, or losing her heart.

* Single Dad
* Fake Dating
* Small Town

"Astrid and Gray push every button. Locke blends sweet and spicy with larger than life and frustrating to deliver an irresistibly fun heartbreaker." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)
🏉 Rugby player/assistant
🏉Grumpy/grumpy
🏉 Enemies to lovers
🏉 Stuck together
🏉 Found family
Also available in Ebook and Paperback.
He’s supposed to be playing rugby—not playing me.
I didn’t think it was possible to hate someone. Like utterly despise another human. Then I was hired to babysit the Royals’ newest star and found out just how wrong I was.
My job should’ve been easy. Keep the hotshot on time and out of trouble. But that’s hard to do when I dream of smothering him with his jersey.
Every day delivers a new reason to detest Gray Adler. His truck is the size of a whale, and he
uses the horn like a weapon.
And, no, that’s not a euphemism.
He can’t manage a sentence
without being rude. And the universe, in its cruelest joke, gave that tattooed, walking red flag the
body of a Greek god.
Just when I finally get used to hating him, things take a turn.
A scalding-hot, mind-blowing I can’t do this with a man I work with sort of turn.
Suddenly, those rough hands make my skin sizzle. His sinful smirks fade into grins just for me.
And our banter shifts into something much more profound than it should.
But Gray Adler is hiding something. And when those secrets collide with my vulnerable heart, I ask myself an important question.
Is he finally telling me the truth, or am I still getting played?

.. a tempting heartbreaker that dares to let it's heartwarming flag fly. Locke delights the soul with hijinks and emotion that lights up the canvas of the heart. Gianna and Drake turn an uphill battle into an irresistible showstopper." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)
What to expect:
🎙️ co-workers to lovers
🎰 a dating bet
😎 stubborn meets stubborn
🌪️ control vs chaos
Release Date: December 29, 2025
💙 Synopsis
“Try me.”
That’s what Drake Bennett said when I declared on my live podcast that no man could make me fall in love. The former pro football star turned sportscaster didn’t just laugh—he challenged my entire brand.
Gianna Knows Best is built on the idea that love is a choice. Drake says it’s a feeling—a magical, uncontrollable, world-shifting experience.
I call BS. He says I’m scared.
The audacity.
So, we make a bet. Six weeks of dating … in front of millions of listeners. If I don’t fall for him, I win. If I do … don’t worry. Not going to happen.
I expected spicy nights and viral ratings. What I didn’t expect was thoughtful surprises, spontaneous affection, and moments that make my heart do strange things.
Drake isn’t who I thought he was, and I can’t tell what scares me more: that he’s been playing me all along or that I’m wrong about love. Either way, someone’s about to get hurt—and I bet it’ll be me.

"...an awakening of the heart. From sweet and flirtatious to spicy temptation ... Locke finds a way to explore the humor behind the heartache with a charm that is soulful and irresistible." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)
Release Date: March 13, 2026
He’s showing me a lot more than he should.
The one time I choose to be unpredictable, I find myself practically naked in a dark cabin on a ranch, face-to-face with a smirking man barely wearing a towel.
Despite his chiseled body and a wicked smile that makes following the rules feel optional, nothing happens. Why? Because I, Audrey Van, don’t know how to have fun.
I came to my friend’s cabin with my whimsy list in hand, determined to fix that. I’ve earned my doctorate and built a career with zero parking tickets and even fewer hangovers. I’ve been so good … and so boring.
This isn’t who I want to be anymore.
Brooks Dempsey is the last person who should be helping me find myself. The ridiculously hot mixed martial artist—and my brother’s nemesis—is a walking bad decision gift wrapped in broad shoulders and trouble. But who better to teach me how to flirt, defend myself, and explore other things than the man who does it best?
Soon, I want more. Not just from life, but from him.
But this recklessly electrifying thing between us was never meant to last. The bad boy never settles with the good girl, and a girl like me should know better. So, when life throws us into the ring, gloves on, will we fight together? Or will one of us throw in the towel?

Imagine my surprise when my grandmother calls me back to Sugar Creek and casually informs me that she’s leaving me the farmhouse I grew up in and a sizable inheritance.

"A shiny star that never loses it's sparkle. The Trouble with Flings blends humor, heat and heart to create captivating. .a heartbreaker that dares to not back down ... Jennifer and Fitz turn an uphill battle into an inevitable chance at forever." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)
Sometimes you have to break all the rules to find everything you never knew you wanted.
Come along for the fun, sexy ride as billionaire Fitz Silver pursues his biggest challenge yet—taming wild child Jennifer Stone. Loaded with heat, humor, and heart, this steamy, small-town, standalone romance is unputdownable. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after that will leave you thinking about it long after you read the last page.
Silver Island’s golden boy Fitz Silver keeps his business dealings clean, his affairs private, and fulfills every promise he makes.
Infuriatingly so. He’s six-plus feet of gentleman in the streets and an unrelenting alpha in the sheets. I should know. I enjoyed a single scorching night in his bed over the summer. But contrary to him being every woman’s fantasy, Fitz is my worst nightmare. I’m a risk taker, a rule breaker. I wasn’t looking for more than a little vacation fun, but that passionate night knocked me off my feet. When a chance encounter brings me face-to-face with the man who ruined me for all others, I know better than to land in his bed again. Unfortunately, outside my job as a high school principal, I’m not known for my good decisions. Once again I plan to leave Mr. Silver and our surprising connection behind, but he’s annoyingly unforgettable, and then two pink lines change everything.
REVIEW: THE TROUBLE WITH FLINGS (THE SILVERS AT SILVER ISLAND #2) BY MELISSA FOSTER
Feisty heartache that hits the spot. Foster puts sweet temptation and spicy romance at the forefront of a heartbreaker that dares to not back down from a challenge. Jennifer and Fitz turn an uphill battle into an inevitable chance at forever. The Trouble with Flings blends humor, heat and heart to create captivating. A shiny star that never loses it's sparkle.

🥃A fling that becomes more
Two fake names and a simple agreement—one night only, wherever the moonshine takes us.
I don’t have time for the cool older guy with wavy hair, a smile that makes me tingle, and who leaves my sheets smelling of Irish Spring. Even more so after I discover he’s the man on the other side of my family’s corporate battle. He’s my rival.
My focus is on the distillery that’s been in my family for four generations and our newest product. That’s where it needs to stay.
Brandt owns a competing brand and might be after something other than a picket-fence forever. I need to keep my guard up.
Problem is, the longer he’s around, the longer I want him to stay…to explore this chemistry between us. To make this fling last forever.
Finding that balance between rivals and lovers won’t be easy.
Especially once our secrets are revealed.

One small town. Two powerful families. Thirty years of secrets are finally reaching their breaking point.
New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello raises the stakes in the third book of the Firebrook Valley series. Get ready for a high-tech, secret-billionaire romance where a golden retriever hero meets a brilliant, guarded woman with a family who doesn't want to be found.
Brady
I’ve always been the one who sees the best in people.
My family calls it naïve. I call it paying attention.
With tensions rising in Firebrook, it’s up to me to figure out what really started this decades-long feud.
I came looking for a man named Thomas Steele.
Instead, I found her.
She’s brilliant. Careful. Completely closed off and somehow still showing up everywhere I go. The more I try to understand her, the more I want to help her find her smile.
And, yeah, I’m supposed to be solving a mystery.
But I'll get there when I get there, and hopefully she'll be at my side when I do.
Elise
My father taught me three things: stay off the grid, trust no one, and never let your guard down.
Then Brady Holliston showed up.
Charming. Persistent. Impossible to ignore.
So I lie to him. A lot.
I tell myself I’m studying him. Testing him. Waiting for him to slip.
But he doesn’t.
Instead, I find myself doing things I don’t do like playing cards with old women who adore him, breaking into places I shouldn’t, and waking up beside a man I was never supposed to trust.
The more we uncover, the more dangerous this becomes.
Because falling for Brady isn’t just a risk.
It’s a betrayal.
And if I step out of the shadows for him, there may be no way back.

One small town. Two powerful families. Thirty years of bad blood.
New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello returns to her billionaire world-building with the first book in the Firebrook Valley series. Get ready for a high-stakes, forced-proximity romance and a town you’ll want to return to over and over again.
Drew:
Was her goal to intimidate me? Is that why she called for a meeting here, in Boston, at this dusty, old-world exclusive club? If so, she doesn’t know me as well as she thinks she does.
I’m the “find out” part of FAFO.
And I’m only here because she said she needed help with a matter regarding my sister.
They say, “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.”
How close is too close? I’m willing to test that limit.
Bella:
My family calls me “the fixer”, but I’m at a loss this time. It probably wasn’t a good idea to ask for help from the son of the man my father has been openly trying to destroy for decades.
But desperate times call for desperate measures.
Is Drew Burke hot? Yes.
Surprisingly willing to help me? Also yes.
My plan to save both of our families from imploding relies on us working together.
This wasn’t supposed to lead to us tangled up in each other’s lives, waking up in each other’s beds.
And, so far, it’s not making the situation better.
Because in Firebrook Valley, the only thing worse than working with the son of your family’s rival is falling in love with him.

One small town. Two powerful families. Thirty years of bad blood threatening to tear everything down.
New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello continues the high-stakes drama of the Firebrook Valley series. Get ready for a soulful, slow-burn, brother’s-best-friend romance that proves some fires don’t just smolder; they consume. One spark is about to set everything ablaze.
She’s innocence and sunshine.
I’m nomadic and jaded.
Neither of us belongs in Firebrook Valley, but here we are, trying to put out fires we didn’t light.
If she wasn’t dating my brother . . .
If I didn’t know I’d hurt her when I leave again . . . maybe I’d finally ask myself why I’ve always gone out of my way to make sure she’s okay.
I need to stay away from her because it's killing me that the only woman I want is the one I can’t have.
I've spent my life creating my own sunshine even in the middle of storms. But this time, I'm caught between two angry brothers and a whole lot of family drama. And, somehow, I'm the one tasked to fix this.
The feud between our fathers is heating up, and so are my exchanges with Evan.
My father’s afraid I’m falling for a Holliston.
And I am, just not the one he thinks I am.
Evan has been my secret guardian angel ever since we were children. Can I get him to wake up and see past the chaos to me before he leaves again?
In Firebrook Valley, the only thing more heartbreaking than falling for the man your family doesn’t want you with . . . is lusting after the one fighting for you to have the right to be with his brother.
