PROMISE
L.B. Dunbar

Release Date: April 4, 2026




Blurb:

A heart-mending romance for a small town marriage-in-repair between reunited lovers seeking a second chance at love later in life.

Dart Rivers is my ex-husband, or so I thought.

Three years ago, he drove out of our small town to chase racing dreams, leaving me and my broken heart in his rearview mirror.

Couple goals and shattered promises brought feelings of failure on both our parts.

Then one night, a special delivery is left on my back step. A stork-drop of sorts. (Think Baby Boom). At first, I believe there must be a mistake, but when the sweet bundle swaddled in pink gazes at me, I’ll do anything to keep her.

Enter Dart Rivers again.

An accident on the track leads to him sneaking into the house, crashing on my couch, and announcing he’s still mine.

Close proximity provides honest conversations, friendly couch time, and familiar attractions. With silver speckled in his hair, Dart is still the best-looking man I’ve ever seen, making my belly flutter and my heart beat again.

But can I trust that fragile organ? Can I give my ex-not-ex-husband a second chance? Can I believe Dart’s new promises?

Rogue River series is a spin-off from the Sterling Falls series, specifically Sterling Touch, giving readers small-town romances with characters over 40.

RELEASE SPOTLIGHT: BURNING VENGEANCE BY TRICIA T. LAROCHELLE

 


Natalie Dugan thought starting a cleaning business would bring freedom, not danger. Between caring for her sick mother and juggling new clients, she has no time for romance—until she meets Aaron Marino, a scarred ex-firefighter who makes her question everything. When a series of suspicious fires spreads through their Virginia town, suspicion falls on every man around her, leaving Natalie to unravel a deadly mystery before vengeance consumes them all. Readers who enjoy high-stakes and forced proximity romances will devour Burning Vengeance by Tricia T. LaRochelle, a small-town, fireman romantic suspense.

Read Now! 

When Natalie Dugan trades spreadsheets for scrub brushes, she hopes her new cleaning business will give her independence—and the chance to care for her ailing mother. Love isn’t on her agenda, but everything changes when she meets Aaron Marino, a reclusive ex-firefighter scarred by the blaze that nearly claimed his life.

As a string of suspicious fires threatens their quaint Virginia town, every man in Natalie’s orbit becomes a suspect: her hard-working new boyfriend, her mother’s unfairly maligned partner, her unsettling neighbor, and even Aaron himself. But the closer Natalie gets to Aaron, the harder it is to ignore the spark that refuses to extinguish.

When the truth behind the fires finally ignites, Natalie will have to confront betrayal, vengeance, and danger that hits far too close to home. Survival—and love—depend on whether she can brave the flames of the past … before they consume her.

Excerpt 

Copyright 2026, Tricia T. LaRochelle

Yaz and I were the new owners of cockapoos. Daisy was my baby, and Sadie was Yaz’s. We adopted the two sisters six months ago, when we had both decided to try our hand at pet parenting. And we were smitten. Our little spitfires kept us busy. 

Embracing the doggy craze, I’d bought pj’s with images of dogs adorning them, tote bags, and throws of the same type of pattern, and of course, the scrubs. Hell, I even had stemless wine glasses with doggy prints etched into the glass—a gift from Mom last Christmas. She doted on Daisy more than I did.  

“You the cleaning lady?” 

Aaron’s voice brought me back to the moment. 

I do have a name.

Other than his gaze lingering on my outfit for a millisecond longer than normal, Aaron never really looked at me as he spoke. He stayed focused on the area behind me, mostly. He also kept lightly scratching at his beard, like someone would do when they were either anxious or prone to such habits.

Handsome or not, I kept my mind on high alert as I watched for signs of crazy from this guy. One hand remained in my pocket, gripping my pepper spray. 

“Yes, I’m Natalie. Natalie Dugan.” I reached my free hand out, and he shook it, quickly releasing his grip.

Here's one with a sense of danger:

Daisy wandered the backyard by the fence bordering Alan’s property. I hated it when she did that, but it was late, and what difference did it make? As long as she did her business in a timely fashion, I was fine. 

“Okay, go potty, Daisy.” Not sure why I had to ask her this. I hoped certain words and phrases would register. During the day, I had taught her to ring a potty-training bell that hung from both the front and back doors of the house. She and I were a work in progress. 

I wrapped my jacket around my waist and wiggled my legs for warmth. “Hurry up, Daisy. Go potty, so we can get back to bed.”

While the little pup sniffed the ground along the fence line, I waited, my gaze wandering the surrounding area, especially the pitchy woods growing thick out back. 

I loved the privacy, but couldn’t help but wonder what animals lurked. Especially on a night like this one, when the moon was hiding behind a dense layer of clouds, the darkness so thick, I could barely see my dog.

You forgot to turn on the outside light, genius. Oh, well, this won’t take long. 

Movement cut through my thoughts, my senses on guard. If a raccoon or a fox came bounding over the fence, I was ready to grab Daisy and whisk her inside. 

A shadow appeared on the other side of the fence. Alan? Oh, shit. What was he doing out here at this hour? My heart slammed against my ribcage, and I lost my breath. What was it about this dude? He’d been harmless so far. Rude, but otherwise benign. Maybe it was those gas cans? His uncanny resemblance to the man in that Netflix show? Or just a sixth sense?

“D-Daisy, w-we gotta go,” I whisper-yelled. 

At this point, she was in full squat mode, doing her business. 

The shadow moved closer as my body trembled and my lungs strained to accept any semblance of oxygen. I wanted to run, but I stood paralyzed.  

The shadow lifted something large. A flick of a lighter followed. All at once, a dragon-sized ball of fire illuminated the night. 

All went dark. Alan moved closer. The fire ignited again, and I could see flames escaping Alan’s mouth. It was like something out of a circus. The heat flushed my cheeks with its warmth. 

Daisy, having finished, backed away from the fence and barked at the wild display. 

In an instant, I could see Alan clearly, until the firebomb extinguished, and darkness returned. 

Alan lifted the bottle and spat more flames. His head turned slightly, his gaze meeting mine.  

Holy shit. What if he spat his flames over here?

Why you will love this book…

💚single dad

💚sheriff MC

💚neighbors

💚child’s teacher

💚grumpy/sunshine

💚small town





Falling for the single dad next door wasn’t part of my plan when I moved to Blossom Peak.

I accepted the teaching job for a fresh start, far away from the controlling ex I left behind.

But Rhonan Hart is everything you could ask for in a man. Strong, dependable, helpful, an amazing father to his daughter, Ellis… and looks beyond sinful in his sheriff’s uniform.

Except his daughter is my student, and he’s determined to pretend like our connection doesn’t exist.

(I’m determined to pretend he didn’t see me naked when my shower blew up, and he tried to save me.)

But soon, he’s sneaking over to my house at night—warming my bed, tearing down his walls, and making me want something I knew I couldn’t have.

My life is a mess, one I’m still trying to clean up. 

But this man and his child give me a glimpse of a future I want, no matter what the cost.

Just when I think I’m on the path to moving on, fate decides to give us the test of time.

I just hope this is a test we both survive.

"....a hard habit to break. Malone takes the soul on an emotional journey that makes a haunting impression." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)



Release Date: April 3, 2026


Trace Coulter has been in love with Lena Hartwell since high school.

The problem? She dated his brother for a year, blamed Trace when it all fell apart, and hasn't spoken to him since. Now he needs a fake girlfriend to salvage his NHL draft prospects, and Lena is the only woman who won't fall for his family name or his pretty face. She's also the one woman he swore he'd never touch.

When Lena agrees to the arrangement in exchange for help with her mother's medical bills, she expects awkward hand-holding and a few staged photos. What she doesn't expect is the way Trace still looks at her like she's the only person in the room. Or the way his touch ignites feelings she's spent three years trying to bury. But when his brother discovers their arrangement, the truth threatens to destroy everything they've built. Can Trace prove his feelings are real before Lena walks away for good?

Find out in Pucking Irresistible, a steamy college hockey romance featuring forbidden attraction, fake dating that becomes all too real, and a hero who's loved her from afar for far too long.

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? 


REVIEWNIGHT FALL TO FIRST LIGHT (FALLEN DEMONS MC #1) BY E.C. LAND

Night Fall to First Light (Fallen Demons MC)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

With a heroine that refuses to back down and a heartbreaker that is willing to rewrite the playbook of love, Night Fall to First Light is an intriguing firecracker. There's always a twist. Attraction burns bright, emotion runs deep and unpredictable is the name of the game. Land dares to push every button. From sensory overload to emotional upheaval, Shadow and Della are passionately, haunting.

Tempting The Seal by Shaw Hart releases on April 7th!

https://geni.us/TemptingTheSeal

Available with Kindle Unlimited


"Hart brings the heat while Jackson and Fern bring the soul. Romance that breaks all the rules to steal your breath and own your heart." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Neither of them planned for this.

Fern:
I’ve orchestrated dozens of perfect weddings, but planning my cousin’s lavish seaside ceremony might be my breaking point.
Between demanding relatives and last-minute disasters, I’m close to losing my mind.
The only bright spot is the quiet, watchful man stationed near the doors.
The second I see Jackson, I forget all about floral arrangements and the stress of my job.
When he looks at me, I feel things that I've never felt before.
He’s a Navy SEAL, a man built for danger and discipline, and for some reason, every time I smile at him, his jaw tightens like I’m a problem he can’t solve.
I tell myself not to care, that a man like him would never be interested in me, but I can't seem to help myself.
I want the sexy SEAL.
I just have no idea how to make that happen.

Jackson:
I’m only doing security at this fancy coastal wedding as a favor to my friend.
The job is supposed to be easy.
Just smile. Scan the exits. Stay professional.
That was the plan… until I see her.
Fern, with her warm eyes, mouthwatering curves, and sugar-sweet smiles.
One look and I know I don’t just want a week with her.
I want everything.
Now I just need to convince her that we’re meant to be and that the next wedding she’s planning needs to be ours.

This time she's going undercover with a rival pack...

What could possibly go wrong?
Moon of Secrets by Brenda Trim and Tia Didmon is now available to preorder!!




🔗 https://geni.us/MoonofSecrets





To stop the darkness, I must walk among the enemy

Going undercover in a rival wolf pack wasn’t part of the plan, but it’s the only way to uncover their true motives. With a false identity and a carefully spun lie, I slip into their hidden community, only to learn the truth is far more dangerous than I imagined.

These wolves aren’t evil. They’re being used. Manipulated by an ancient entity that feeds on shifter energy, one bent on harnessing enough power to permanently darken the moon. If it succeeds, every wolf shifter will gain unstoppable strength, at the cost of our humanity.

As suspicion sharpens around me, I lean on Eve’s spells to mask my identity and Salima’s guidance to reach my allies on the outside. Time is running out, the lunar ritual draws near, and I’m walking a razor’s edge between exposure and survival.

Because saving the city isn’t enough this time. I have to save them, even if they tear me apart for the truth.
