Release DateAugust 20, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Finian Kelley and Tate Jennings met at a wedding…
…but that doesn’t mean they had romance in mind.

Since meeting Finian Kelley at a wedding last fall, where they agreed to be physical with no strings attached, Tate Jennings can’t get him out of her head. So when an invitation arrives at her Florida condo, inviting Tate to spend St. Patrick’s Weekend back at Summerhaven where Finian works, she can’t resist heading up to New Hampshire for the festivities.

Having just gotten out of an awesomely bad relationship, Finian Kelley has sworn off romance, which is why it’s good that hottie Tate Jennings lives far away in the Florida Keys. They may have fooled around at Rory’s wedding, but at least they have no future together, right?

Wrong. When an annual celebration brings Tate back to New Hampshire, will Finian be able to stay away from the woman who’s already made an unwanted impression on his heart?

Return to Summerhaven one last time for this sweet, sultry, summer novella!

REVIEWCATCHING IRISH (THE SUMMERHAVEN TRIO) BY KATY REGNERY

 

Catching Irish (The Summerhaven Trio #4)Catching Irish by Katy Regnery

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Catching Irish reminded me of my favorite song. I got lost in the moment. Tate and Fin are like a catchy melody stuck on repeat in my head. The words are embedded and your heart is lost before you realize what's happening. When a heart finds it's match it never let's go. No matter what the odds, Regnery reminds us that true love is worth fighting for. Love is a gift and this series is a treasure inspired by that gift. Loved it.

BLAZING HOT (CALIFORNIAN WILDFIRE FIGHTERS) by LESLIE NORTH

 

 

 

Release Date: August 20, 2018

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Rugged loner Landon Brenner has a problem and she’s beautiful, intelligent, and he’s falling for her—fast. Injured while fighting the fire threatening the small town of Cedar Springs, and haunted by past failures that drive him to get back to the action despite his injuries, Landon reluctantly agrees to take a room in the house of the sexy nurse who treated him while he was in the hospital. Their attraction is combustible, and the more time they spend together, the more Landon finds himself yearning for more than just a temporary fling. 

It’s hard not to fall for a guy who likes to go around saving everything in his path—from small animals to people—but Alexandra Appleby is determined to resist Landon’s many charms. He’s too much like her late husband Henry, a cop who died in the line of duty. She doesn’t need another hero in her life. A man around who rushes into danger without thinking twice. And she sure as heck doesn’t want to fall in love with a man whose bravery could kill him—and leave her heartbroken. She’s got her job and she’s perfectly content to spend the rest of her days alone. But Alex can’t help thinking that maybe, just maybe, Landon is worth putting her heart on the line. 

As the fire creeps ever closer to Cedar Springs, will Landon and Alex put aside their fears—and the past—to find a way into each other’s hearts?

REVIEWALL THE WAY (ROMANCING MANHATTAN) BY KRISTEN PROBY

 

All the Way (Romancing Manhattan, #1)All the Way by Kristen Proby

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


It's at our weakest that we find the strength to become the strongest. Proby has remained a favorite of mine, because she's not afraid to go beyond the laughter and delve into the heartache. All The Way dares to be bold. Is not afraid to be sensitive. Will walk away with more than just a little piece of heart. There's a risk to opening yourself up to life. From joyful memories to heartbreaking goodbyes the experiences far outweigh the fear. London and Finn are survivors. Out of tragedy emerges a second chance for three strangers determined to face their fears in order to find their happy ending.

REWRITE THE STARS BY JULIEANN DOVE

 

 

 

Release Date: August 23, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

For ten summers Claire and her mother had been guests at the Prescott’s beach house at Kelly’s Cove. And for ten years she played with Mallory and her twin brother, Colin. But it wasn’t until she returned after college graduation for her last summer there, that she realized Colin had grown into a guy who made her knees knock just by smiling at her. Being from different worlds, she knew nothing would come from her attraction to him.

Having returned to the states from studying abroad for four years, the last person Colin thought he’d find staying in his bedroom was Claire Ashton. Lanky and awkward during her adolescent years, he had to look twice to make sure this was the same girl. After a week together it was obvious he’d overlooked something before, because he felt things for her he’d never experienced before. There was only one problem—his last name and all that came with it would never permit him to be with her. 

In the end, it’s either love or prestige that will win in the game of love.

Thrown together for countless summers at a young age, it's only in adulthood that love takes hold of their hearts and disrupts their lives.
