SINFUL GAMES (CHECKMATE INC.) BY SHELLY ALEXANDER
Release Date: November 12, 2018
SYNOPSIS
“She made the first move, so I’m all in and ready to play.”
—Oscar (Oz) Strong
Sometimes life gets f&%#ed up. Is it my fault?
Usually.
I might be a literal genius in biochemistry. I might have made the right choice when I let two of my college chess team buddies talk me into putting my brain and my multiple degrees to work in an unexpected way that has made us ridiculously wealthy. I may be the founding partner who developed our full line of wildly successful, supercharged, pheromone colognes. I might have even been damned smart, coming up with the idea to take our multimillion-dollar company public.
But that doesn’t mean I make the most intelligent decisions when it comes to my personal life.
For instance, I let my parents push me into marriage right after I finished at Columbia. I should’ve reminded dear old Mom and Dad that their geekster, brainiac son has spent a lot of time at the gym packing on muscle and has learned how to treat a lady, both in and out of bed…so I’m smart enough to pick my own woman.
But naw.
I married a girl because my parents liked her family’s name. A girl who didn’t love me but instead loved my trust fund.
Now that I think about it, smart people really can be obtuse to the point of idiocy. Which is why falling for my new assistant is not only my biggest f&%# up, but it’s also a mistake that could put both of my business partners and our company’s future at risk.
It’s stupid, I know. But then she goes and makes the first move, and fierce competitor that I am, I can’t help but rise to the challenge.
I’m all in and ready to play by her rules. I just don’t realize until it’s too late that the only rules to the game she wants to play is seductive, steamy, sexy…and so positively sinful.
ABOUT THE CHECKMATE INC. SERIES:
Some guys are late bloomers, but once they hit their stride, they make up for lost time.
And the bonus? The founding partners of Checkmate Inc. didn’t become successful and smokin’ hot by accident. They were smart enough to surround themselves with guys who helped them transform into the men they are today. So get ready for more stories about the hotties who are connected to Checkmate Inc.
A fun, flirty, and dirty contemporary series in which the sizzling hot players associated with Checkmate Inc. meet their matches.

REVIEW: SINFUL GAMES (CHECKMATE INC.) BY SHELLY ALEXANDER
Sinful Games by Shelly Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Alexander comes from all angles. Sinful Games goes for the spice with some sugar thrown in. Oz has the smarts to make his dreams come true, but his heart has been lost a bit in the shuffle. He wants to be happy, but doesn't quite know how to make that happen. When Kendall (Pink) enters his life is when the sizzle begins. She's fire to his ice. She pushes his buttons while stealing his heart. With saucy dialogue, compelling characters and tempting humor Sinful Games is a seduction, I'll gladly revisit again and again.

MEANT FOR YOU (THE CONNOR FAMILY) BY LAYLA HAGEN
Release Date: November 13, 2018
SYNOPSIS
Will Connor lives his life by simple rules: take care of those he loves, give one hundred percent to his job, and never ignore his instincts. So when he meets Paige, he doesn’t plan to ignore their crazy chemistry, or the way her pretty smile strips him of all defenses…
Even though Paige isn’t too impressed by his flirting…or is she?
As the development director of a non-profit, Paige Lamonica has met her fair share of people. But Will is something else entirely. The hot detective is a little too confident, and far too easy on the eye. She loves that he goes toe-to-toe with her at every turn.
When Will asks her to attend his sister’s wedding with him, she thinks he just wants to throw off his scent some relatives with a penchant for matchmaking.
She couldn’t be more wrong. Will wants her.
When she teases him, he teases her right back. When she pushes his buttons, he repays her with scorching hot kisses.
Paige discovers that there’s more to Will than she thought. With every layer she peels off, she craves more…
But as the daughter of an army man, Paige has never wanted to get involved with someone on the force. Can Will persuade her to give in to their growing love?

ROYAL TEASE (ROYALS UNITED) BY NANA MALONE
Release Date: November 13, 2018
SYNOPSIS
The plan was royally simple...
Go undercover, protect my best friend's little sister. It should have been the easiest assignment of my life. But Jessa is uncooperative. She's feisty, mouthy, and stubborn. Oh and she hates me. Ever since I threw her over my shoulder and carried her out of a bar fight, I've been persona non grata.
But the stakes are too high to mess this up. The monarchy is at risk.
Jessa...I can't stand Roone Ainsley. There, I said it. Shoot me.
We go together like lightning and water. His cheeky obstinance is going to cost me my job. A job I've worked hard to keep. No one is messing this up for me. I've had enough crazy in my life. But even if I wanted him--which I don't, but if I did--I can't ever have him. My life is not my own. I've known that since birth.

REVIEW: ROYAL TEASE (ROYALS UNITED) BY NANA MALONE
Royal Tease by Nana Malone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I've heard love described as a losing game. Although there may be some truth to that, I have always thought we give out what we take in. It's easier to fall in love, but not so easy to walk away. We enter romance seeing what we want to see, but when we walk away we leave strong feelings behind. Royal Tease is the story of two strangers trying to make sense. Jessa and Reese are thrown together with the best of intentions and torn apart by deceit. Malone is masterful when it comes to seducing her readers. She's so good that I never see what's standing right in front of me. Heartache and a surprise ending.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S SHAM GIRLFRIEND (THE BEAUMONT BROTHERS) BY LESLIE NORTH
Release Date: November 5, 2018
SYNOPSIS
Gregor Beaumont is in a world of hurt that all the charm in his gorgeous, well-toned body can’t fix. His late grandfather, God rest his soul, wanted to make sure Gregor and his two playboy brothers settle down. He had the brilliant idea of buying up a huge share of the brothers’ engine company and using that as incentive for each brother to find Mrs. Right. Settle down or lose the company to a competitor. Well, that’s just not happening to Gregor, not when life’s so good at the moment. Gregor likes racing fast cars and seducing fast women, and not necessarily in that order. Settle down? Not a chance. Gregor has his own brilliant idea: find some wholesome and desperate girl to pretend to be his girlfriend. No harm. No foul. Unless things start getting a little bit too real.
Kara Alerby knows she’s a sucker for blues eyes and a great smile, so when Gregor comes into her theater wanting to hire her to act the part of his adoring girlfriend, she’s already got her defenses on high alert. But Kara’s a practical girl, and Gregor’s offering a boatload of money that would go a long way toward making her dream of creating a fine arts school for gifted kids a reality. She can ignore his smiles, his charisma, and his kiss-me mouth if it means she’ll get her school. All she has to do is remind herself, every second of every day they’re together, that it’s all make believe—even when it doesn’t always feel that way.
When Greg’s love of racing puts his life in jeopardy, Kara isn’t ready to watch another person die in front of her like her father did. And Greg isn’t about to stop doing the one thing that makes life worth living. The two are on a collision course, one that could break them apart forever if they don’t change directions…

Only one thing could make it worse: another man in her life. The arrogant Italian fashion tycoon offering to buy her father’s shop is as rich as he is sexy, and their attraction is off the charts. But Kimber’s not about to get burned again.

Kimber tells herself it’s all just a game. That her broken heart isn’t in danger, and that Matteo’s touch does not make her Lady Land dance with joy. But sometimes it takes the fieriest of enemies to turn a fantasy into a real-life romance.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Life has one theme: "Expect the unexpected". Samantha Chase takes that adage and turns it into heartwarming, heartbreaking and inspiring tales of family, love and courage. Whether finding a second chance with first love, facing loss head on or finding a soulmate, there is realism in every hint of fantasy. Exclusive spells the beginning of a second chance for long lost friends. A Touch of Heaven is a reminder that letting go of the past can lead to new memories for the future. No matter the circumstance, despite the odds, our hearts never forget. Characters like Regan, Mike, Sawyer and Taylor speak to what makes us human. The heart.

SYNOPSIS
Fall in love with Bones Whiskey in WICKED WHISKEY LOVE, an emotionally riveting, sexy new standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. A magnificent love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, families, bikers, babies, and more!
In WICKED WHISKEY LOVE...
After escaping abusive parents and, later, an abusive relationship, Sarah Beckley has spent a lifetime watching snakes shed their skin. With two small children to care for and another on the way, she's finally found a home in Peaceful Harbor with the brother she hasn't seen in more than a decade. She's still searching for her sister, but life is good. If only she could stop thinking about the sinfully sexy doctor/biker who has taken to her children like a loving uncle-and to her like a hungry man.
Trust doesn't come easily for Sarah, but Bones Whiskey is patient and protective, amazing with her children, and he looks at her like she is the only woman he could ever want-and more. With two little ones underfoot, Sarah expects him to move on quickly, yet with every tender kiss and each trying moment with the children, Bones surprises her. But will the fiercely loyal biker stick around when Sarah's worst secret is revealed, or will he shed his skin, too?

REVIEW: WICKED WHISKEY LOVE BY MELISSA FOSTER
Wicked Whiskey Love by Melissa Foster
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don't tear up often, but Wicked Whiskey Love made a crier out of me. Foster showed life at it's ugliest and triumph at it's most inspiring. Sarah is not just a victim, she's a survivor. She found the courage to fight for herself and make a better world for the people she loved most. They say people enter your life at the time you need them most. Bones was a catalyst for her inner heroine breaking free. I enjoy reading stories that mean something. The tale of Bones and Sarah is made all the more powerful because it's realistic, inspiring and gripping.

REVIEW: RISING STAR (STARSTRUCK) BY SUSANNAH NIX
Rising Star by Susannah Nix
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The appeal of Rising Star for me hinged heavily on Alice. Alice is a character that readers can see pieces of themselves in. Nix created a character that was fascinating not because she lost her heart to a movie star, but because she stayed true to herself while doing it. Susannah Nix dared to show how awkward can be beautiful. Rising Star is right at the head of class when it comes to empowerment and that's a message that never gets old.

SLOW BURN (IRON HORSE) BY DANIELLE NORMAN
Release Date: November 8, 2018
SYNOPSIS
Paris had changed me.
I wasn’t talking about the city,
I was referring to Paris Jean Kelly.
From the first time we held hands on the school bus to our first kiss, we’d been moving toward one thing, the day I’d ask her to be mine.
How was I to know that she thought friends couldn’t be lovers?
Well…I’m going to prove her wrong.
When her world turns upside down…I’ll be there.
When she’s feeling lost…I’ll be there.
After all, it’s not about the spark or the fire…
It’s all about the Slow Burn.

REVIEW: SLOW BURN (IRON HORSE) BY DANIELLE NORMAN
Slow Burn by Danielle Norman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
No one can break a heart quite like Danielle Norman. The impact feels brutal, but the emotional purge is empowering. Slow Burn is like a road map to the heart. Asher and Paris are a bundle of insecurities fighting to become whole. Paris sees the world with the damaged heart of a seven year old girl doing her best to be perfect. Asher is the kind of man, who wants to be happy and is willing to take the hard road to get there. What happens when forever comes calling but doubt has you too scared to answer? When kindred spirits become crippled by heartache anything is possible. Norman takes hearts down an emotionally treacherous path to remind them falling in love is not always smooth sailing, but a learning curve.

BARK! THE HERALD ANGELS SING (THE DOGFATHER) BY ROXANNE ST. CLAIRE
Release Date: November 8, 2018
SYNOPSIS
With Christmas and a family wedding fast approaching, there’s happy chaos in the air at Waterford Farm. However, not everyone in the Kilcannon clan is caught up in the magic of the moment. Matriarch, octogenarian, and beloved blogger Gramma Finnie hears the clock of her long life ticking far too fast, while her great-granddaughter, teenager Pru, feels squeezed out of planning her mother’s nuptials.
But when this unlikely duo is tasked with the project of producing the “Somethings” for the wedding – and only have Christmas Eve to get the job done – Gramma Finnie and Pru have a purpose and a plan. They set off to find the perfect old, new, borrowed, and blue treasures, but it doesn’t take long for things to spin out of control faster than Gramma’s Toyota in a snowstorm. Detoured by a stray border collie, thwarted by nature and an elf parade, and trapped by a rifle-toting mountain man, it will take more than the power of the Kilcannon clan to save these two from a Christmas catastrophe. It will take the luck of the Irish, a love story from long ago, and a whole lot of help from the angels to make this holiday merry and bright.
The Dogfather Series
The Dogfather isn’t just one man…it’s a brand new contemporary romance series from New York Times bestselling author Roxanne St. Claire celebrating what she loves most: hot guys, great dogs, big families…and true love. And a portion of the proceeds from every book in the series will be donated to the Alaqua Animal Refuge in the author’s home state of Florida!
Daniel Kilcannon is known as “The Dogfather” for a reason. It’s not just his renowned skills as a veterinarian, his tremendous love of dogs, or the fact that he has turned his homestead in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains into a world class dog training and rescue facility. Ask his six grown children who run Waterford Farm for him, and they’ll tell you that their father’s nickname is due to his uncanny ability to pull a few strings to get what he wants. And what he wants is for his four sons and two daughters to find the kind of life-changing love he had with his dearly departed wife, Annie. This old dog has a few new tricks…and he’ll use them all to see his pack all settled into their happily ever afters!

REVIEW: BARK! THE HERALD ANGELS SING (THE DOGFATHER) BY ROXANNE ST. CLAIRE
Bark! The Herald Angels Sing by Roxanne St. Claire
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Once a Kilcannon, always a Kilcannon. With the holidays, fast approaching and a wedding on the horizon this resilient family proves that love never gets old. Bark the Herald Angels Sing is a celebration of a life well lived. Despite a few hiccups along the way, St.Claire and her adorable four legged friends remind what it means to love with a whole heart and unconditionally. It all started with a father's love, a mother's heart and a grandmother's strong will. I adore this family.
