How to Survive Your Boss (The Ashford Brothers #1) by Leslie North 







Release Date: January 8, 2026


The Hating Game meets The Proposal—if the grumpy billionaire you had a one-night stand with ran a luxury jet empire, ghosted you like a pro, and then became your next PR nightmare at 40,000 feet.

Months ago, I had a scorching one-night stand with Harrison Winslow. CEO. Sin in a suit. Human red flag.

Also? The grumpiest man alive. Think smoldering glare, dripping sarcasm, and the emotional range of a brick wall.

He ghosted me so hard I had to check for a pulse.

Then we collide again in an airport lounge—just as he’s going viral for trash-talking Scarlett Rush, America’s sweetheart and the world’s most beloved pop star.

Now he’s public enemy number one, the fandom is out for revenge, and his private jet company is bleeding money.

And he wants to hire me to fix it.

I’m a crisis PR pro, not a billionaire wrangler. Babysitting a grumpy jet mogul with a god complex and a grudge against joy—who had me breaking all my rules, then vanished—is not in my five-year plan.

Still, the money’s obscene. The jets are private. And the job? Temporary.

I can keep it professional.
I can ignore the tension in every private jet and late-night strategy session.
I will absolutely not fall for the man who ghosted me.

…Right?

REVIEW: HOW TO SURVIVE YOUR BOSS (THE ASHFORD  BROTHERS #1) BY LESLIE NORTH

How to Survive Your Boss (The Ashford Brothers #1)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Romantically delicious. From spicy attraction to sweet heartache, North is an emotional powerhouse. Gwen and Harrison push the boundaries of romance with pinache. Sassy dialogue, tempting attraction and irresistible characters turn heartbreaker into heartwarmingly, unforgettable fun.

This single dad longs for a second chance with the girl whose heart he broke. But is the big-time TV actress willing to find a new role in small town Trinity Falls once Christmas is over?

Ransom Wright has made some pretty big mistakes in his life, including dumping his high school sweetheart to stop her from abandoning her dreams. And since that ill-fated day, he seems to mess up everything else he touches. Well… almost everything.

The one perfect thing in his life is being a father to Travis and Mae, the sweetest seven-year-old boy and the spunkiest six-year-old girl in the world. And now that he’s home from the Army for good, the single dad is hoping to end his unlucky streak and get his dog training business off the ground.

It’s only during the lonely nights that he lets his memory carry him back to Hailey Sinclair and the happiness he felt back when she was his girl.

So when Hailey appears at his doorstep on a snowy December night, he can’t believe his eyes. She’s an actress on the biggest weekly soap opera in network television history. What is she doing back in small town Trinity Falls?

As their lives suddenly become entangled all over again, and Hailey falls hard for his kids, Ransom finds himself hoping for a Christmas miracle. After all, he’s pretty sure that’s what it would take for his favorite celebrity to give him a second chance.

Healing Hannah by Cassie Colton releases on January 20th!

https://geni.us/SerenitySecuritySeries




Start the Series Now!

Military veteran Hannah Bailey has retreated into herself after serving time in combat. Never a strong proponent for battle, she only wanted to appease her father--a man who only wanted sons. Now, after years of quiet solitude, Hannah refuses to leave her room at the Winters Foundation, nor will she open up to anyone about her trauma.

Former K-9 handler, Cole Martin, trains dogs for Team Hawk at the Winters Foundation. The new reserved, silent woman intrigues Cole, but she denies anyone access to her thoughts and emotions. The only way he can truly get through to her is with the help of his most reliable colleague, Brady, a rascally German Shepherd who tends to get himself into trouble on a daily basis. Hannah’s reluctant nature is no match for Brady’s charm. As the dog draws her out of her shell, Cole searches for a way in. Can the shepherd and Cole heal Hannah’s heart to make room for both of them?

Before their next case is over, he will command her heart and soul...


Don't wait for release day! Preorder Wicked Games by Romantic Fiction by Maddie Taylor now!




🔗 https://geni.us/WickedGames1




Some games are deadly. Some loves are inevitable. This one is both.

After losing her family in a tragedy, Emily Peterson has spent years rebuilding her life brick by fragile brick. She works, she studies, she survives. Feelings aren’t just inconvenient, they’re downright dangerous. And no one threatens her carefully reconstructed world more than Detective Alec Yarborough. 

Fiercely protective, irresistibly commanding, and powerful enough to break her stubborn defenses, Alec is more than just her brother’s best friend. He’s the boy Emily loved in secret, and the man she walked away from to save herself. But now Emily is the one in need of saving.

When a coworker’s disappearance unearths long-buried evidence in her family’s case, Emily volunteers to go undercover. Furious at her recklessness and desperate to keep her safe, Alec is the first to step into the line of fire beside her. But working together quickly reignites their blistering chemistry and the kind of dominance that never failed to strip Emily’s defenses bare. As she falls back into Alec’s arms, she finds the piece of herself she never knew she was missing. 

Soon, the real threat isn’t the conspiracy that claimed her family years ago. It’s denying the man who commands her heart, her body, and her very soul. Can she finally surrender to the powerful love that was always inevitable?

About Maddie:


USA Today and #1 international bestselling author, Maddie is a lifelong reader who became a romance junkie as a teen with her first romance novel, The Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss. From then on, she was hooked, and gobbled up everything she could get her hands on, whether contemporary, historical, paranormal or sci-fi. If there was romance to be found between a strong alpha male, and a sassy, adventurous and ofttimes defiant yet loving woman, Maddie was all over it. As an author, she stays true to those themes writing steamy erotic romance, with a side of kink, and adding elements of intrigue, danger and suspense to her plots.

Maddie started writing as a hobby. Her stories stayed private while she raised a family and worked full time as a registered nurse. It wasn't until 2012 that she decided to take the plunge and submit her first book for publication: Captain My Captain. She went on to publish eleven novels the first year.

She's in a 72 hour race to master a new ritual and save her small town yet again...


What could possibly go wrong?

Hell Hath All The Furies by Brenda Trim is now available to preorder!!





🔗 https://geni.us/AllTheFuries




Just when I thought I'd gotten the hang of this whole Gatekeeper thing, the universe decided to throw me another curveball. Because apparently, saving Saltcliff from dimensional collapse was just the warm-up act.

Malphas might be gone, but his parting gift keeps on giving—demon essence woven so deep into the gate network that removing it could destroy everything I've worked to protect. And naturally, every supernatural power player on the eastern seaboard has decided now would be a great time to drop by for a 'friendly visit.' Nothing says vacation destination like corrupted interdimensional portals, am I right?

Between research sessions that make my brain feel like scrambled eggs, romantic dinners that keep getting interrupted by assassination attempts, and Riley's increasingly dangerous experiments with dual bloodline magic, I'm starting to think my old corporate job wasn't so bad. At least the worst thing that could happen there was a hostile takeover, not a literal dimensional invasion.

Now I've got seventy-two hours to master a cleansing ritual that hasn't been attempted in centuries, while supernatural delegations circle the island like sharks sensing blood in the water. The ritual requires a willing sacrifice, and guess who keeps volunteering? Here's a hint: it's not me, which is apparently a problem.

Good thing I've got Zane keeping me grounded (when his demon heritage isn't making him allergic to my magic), Astra organizing our defenses like a supernatural general, and Mimi providing commentary that could strip paint off a battleship. Because nothing says "family support" like your grandmother critiquing your life choices while loading enchanted ammunition.

They say the devil's in the details, but in my case, the demon's in the network. And getting him out might just kill me.
