#NewRelease



RETURN TO THE SHADOWS OF RAVENHOLDE
Death Makes the Heart Grow Fonder by Brenda Trim and Tia Didmon is now live!!!




🔗 https://geni.us/HeartGrowFonder




I can command the dead, but saving the living may cost me everything.

As the newest member of the Sacred Sisterhood, I’m given a brutal task of dispatching a zombie horde before it devours everything in its path. But the dead aren’t rising because of errant necromancy.

A powerful enemy has returned, and he means to reshape our world into something twisted, broken, and unlivable.

To stop him, I’ll need more than my magic, my sisters, and the loyal friends willing to fight beside me. I’ll need the relentless protection of a stubborn gargoyle determined to keep me alive... and the one dark power I’ve feared my entire life.

But if the only way to save the world is to unleash the very thing that could destroy me, will I sacrifice my soul for everyone I love... or let the world burn?

Find out what lurks in the shadows of Ravenholde by reading Death Makes The Heart Grow Fonder, the new Paranormal Women's Fiction series readers are comparing to Shannon Mayer, K.F. Breene, and Victoria Dannan.

HAPPY BOOK WEEK


MAXWELL (FAMILY TIES #7) BY DELANEY DIAMOND is #NowLive!


"The spice of life leads to the heartache of romance. Maxwell sets fire to the senses. Diamond brings steam and sassy together in the perfect prescription for love." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Release Date: August 14, 2026


One night. Her rules.

Dr. Maxwell Santana is back in Atlanta, ready to start the career he’s worked years to build. On his first day at the new pediatric practice, he comes face to face with the last woman he expected to see and braces himself for the awkward fallout. What he gets is much worse: she’s completely, maddeningly unbothered.

Jasmine Roberson’s life is exactly where she wants it, running her father’s thriving practice. Maxwell is charming, gorgeous, and the furthest thing from what she wants long-term. She doesn’t care how good he looks in a white coat or how her pulse spikes every time he walks into a room. What happened between them was one night, her terms. Done.

Except now he’s at work. Every day. The more she sees of the real man behind the charm, the harder it gets to remember why he’s not the man for her.

And Maxwell… well, he has never had to chase anyone. He has never wanted to. Until now.

What if one unforgettable night was only the beginning of forever? FRACTURED DESTINY by Kaylene Winter is #NowLive!


"Lake and Noa are a moment in time that lingers on the soul.  Winter turns haunting emotion into an ethereal love story." -(Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

 




People leave. Music never has.

 

I’ve stopped expecting anything different.

 

Foster homes. Empty promises. Bars barely paying enough for gas.

 

Every time I start believing in somebody, they disappear.

 

Music never does. It gives me purpose. A future. A reason to keep going when everything else falls apart.

 

One night, I meet a woman who hears the silence between my words.

 

By morning, I’m left with scraps… and no idea why I can’t let her go.

 

One mistake rewrote the rest of my life.

 

Fighting back is exhausting. Leaning into their version of me is easier.

 

Now I’m juggling two identities.

 

Convinced I’m in control while disappearing into someone else’s fantasy.

 

Until I meet a man who makes me forget to pretend.

 

Now I can’t decide whether I experienced the only honest connection of my life.

 

Or if I imagined the whole thing.

 

Years later, when the truth finally finds us, we’ll have to decide whether one unforgettable encounter was nothing more than a beautiful accident.

 

Or the beginning of a love story neither of us saw coming.

 

Fractured Destiny is a one-night stand, hidden identity, found family rockstar romance where two fractured souls fight to rebuild trust, reclaim themselves, and earn the future neither believed was possible.

 

 REVIEW: FRACTURED DESTINY (BACKSTAGE CONFESSIONS) BY KAYLENE WINTER

Fractured Destiny (Backstage Confessions)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Heartbreak has a ton of moving parts, Fractured Destiny puts them all on display. Once again, Winter turns haunting emotion into an ethereal love story. Lake and Noa are a moment in time that lingers on the soul.

USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison turns up the heat in this sizzling small-town, second-chance romance.

Twelve years ago, McKenna Lambert broke Hudson Tate’s heart when she left Montgavin in pursuit of dreams that were too big for their cozy hometown. He has always been content living there, working as a firefighter, and with his boss announcing his retirement, Hudson should be next in line to become fire chief. The only problem is the town committee is looking for someone settled. And Hudson has a reputation.

McKenna is back in Montgavin to help her mom through chemotherapy, but has no plans on staying. She has a successful career that allows her to travel the world, and a couple of big secrets she’s determined to keep in order to protect the people she loves—including the reason she broke off her recent engagement. However, rather than focus on getting well, her mom frets that McKenna’s broken engagement has left her with no one to take care of her if the worst should happen.

So, Hudson comes up with the perfect plan—a fake relationship. Strictly temporary, of course. McKenna is clear that she’s not staying, their lives are on different tracks, and they’re in agreement. Because she is absolutely not falling for him again ... right?

USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison turns up the heat when a night of passionate brings together a man who was never looking for love and a woman who thinks she doesn’t deserve it.

Theo Williams loved and lost once and isn’t interested in doing it again. He has his family and friends, and plenty of women passing through his new hometown who are happy with a no-strings attached night of passion. Working as a partner at his cousin’s construction company, he’s perfectly content with his life—until he meets Collins Henderson, the one-night stand who will change his world forever.

Collins grew up on the wrong side of her small hometown. Thanks to her parents’ shady schemes, every local knows a Henderson cannot be trusted. She works hard as a paramedic, putting in every extra hour she can to save for a better life. But every time she starts to get ahead, her parents show up to pull her back down. Having one night of passion with a man she doesn’t know is not something she’d normally do, but there was just something about him … And two months later, she finds herself unexpectedly pregnant.

When she runs into the mysterious stranger again, she has to tell him, not because she needs or wants anything from him, just so he knows. But now he’s showing up at her house to cook her meals, stocking her refrigerator, and doing everything he can for her. Collins has always taken care of herself, she wasn’t looking for a relationship, but she can’t deny the chemistry between them.

She knows it’s only a matter of time before he learns who she is and changes his mind. She can’t let herself fall for this guy, but every day he’s getting harder to resist …

Single Dad/Nanny, Opposites Attract, Small Town Romance, Forbidden, Detective Hero, Damsel in Distress


A divorced detective who is all about order gets more than he bargained when his new nanny sends his life—and his heart—spinning out of control in the latest spicy romance by USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison.



Finley Westbrook’s life just blew up. Now, the only thing she wants is for her husband to sign their divorce papers. Just one problem: he wants half of her, and her family’s, fortune. When her best friend tells her a man in her hometown needs a short-term, live-in nanny for his eight-year-old son, it sounds like the perfect escape from the mess her life has become. Sure, Finley has never had a job, but how hard can it be to take care of an adorable kid?

Single dad and small-town detective Lincoln Burke doesn’t have time for chaos. But just as his ex-wife is about to leave for her honeymoon, a major case hits his desk. He’s desperate to find a nanny, and it seems Finley is his only option. She’s a walking disaster in his kitchen, can never follow a schedule—and is a dangerous temptation in his home.

The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore, but Lincoln won’t risk his heart again—especially not with his employee. Yet, the more Finley pushes his buttons, the harder she is to resist. When danger closes in, what started as a temporary arrangement may cost them far more than they ever expected.

But what if he needs her more?

ABOUT LJ EVANS:

Award-winning author LJ Evans lives in Northern California with her husband, child, and the three terrors called cats. She's written compulsively since she was a little girl, often getting derailed from what she should be doing by a song lyric that sends her scrambling to jot a scene down. 

A former first-grade teacher, she now spends her days deep in the pages of romance and mystery with a bit of the otherworldly thrown in. Her favorite characters are those who live resiliently—stubbornly and triumphantly getting through this wild ride called life with hope, love, and found families guiding the way. 

Her novels have won multiple industry awards, including CHARMING AND THE CHERRY BLOSSOM which was Writer’s Digest’s Self-Published E-book Romance of the Year.

I’ve always been the good girl. The adored daughter. The sheltered sister. The innocent, younger friend.

 

Then I met Jetmir Volkov.

 

A morally corrupt heir to a mafia empire. A beautiful monster wrapped in tailored suits and bloodstained promises. 

 

I fell into his bed… and followed him all the way to the altar.

 

I thought marrying him was the most dangerous thing I’d ever do.

 

I was wrong.

 

Because when his lies finally shattered our marriage, I ran back to my family. Back to safety.

 

But men like Jetmir didn’t let go.

 

My ruthless and unhinged ex-husband dragged me back into his world with cold hands and darker intentions. 

 

He chained me to himself. He destroyed every wall I built while away from him until I was breathless, furious… and screaming his name again.

 

I fought him at every turn.

 

Then the bodies started piling up.

 

Anyone who came for me and threatened to take me from him.

 

Dead.

 

And I finally understood that when Jetmir vowed until death do us part, he meant every word.

 

Jetmir Volkov would burn down the cities and paint the whole world red just to keep me beside him.

 

And the worst part?

 

Beneath all the violence, obsession, and ruin… he was the only one I wanted.
