In return, he will pay off my debts and help my family.
I should refuse.
Instead, I say yes.
His rules are simple.
This is a contract.
There will be no feelings.
No expectations.
No future.

REVIEW: THE UNWILLING BRIDE (THE HAMILTONS #1) BY L. STEELE
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A book boyfriend worth sinking your heart into. From spicy temptation to sweet romance, Harper and James blow the soul wide open. Steele turns complicated into irresistible. The Unwilling Bride burns up the senses with a hero that is uniquely alpha and heroine that dares to speak her mind. A sensually, haunting kaleidoscope that blurs the line between heartache and heartwarming.
#ICYMI
#NewRelease
"He’s the man who is about to teach her that the most dangerous place to be is near him." 🐆🖤
"I’m not the man for you."
The Unwilling Love (The Hamiltons) by L. Steele is HERE!
James Hamilton is a Royal Marine who has seen the darkest parts of the world, and he’s determined to keep Harper away from his shadows. But Harper isn’t looking for a perfect hero—she’s looking for him.
****
James Hamilton is the definition of off-limits. He’s cynical, jaded, and way too protective of his sister’s best friend. But when the air crackles between them, it’s clear his instincts are anything but brotherly.
READ THE EXCERPT: 📖
“He cups my cheek and lowers his head. I close my eyes, tip up my chin, and feel the warmth of his breath on my cheek, on my lips. Then just like that, it’s gone. And so is his touch.
I snap my eyes open, to find him looking at me with a tortured expression in his eyes. 'I can’t, Harper... someone who’d taint your innocence, someone who’d drag you down into the darkness with him. I’m not the man for you.'
'But what if you were?' I swallow. 'What if you were the man I was waiting for.'”
Don't miss this emotionally charged, slow-burn prequel to The Unwilling Bride!

REVIEW: THE UNWILLING LOVE (THE HAMILTONS) BY L. STEELE
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
It's not the words but the feelings they emote. Steele seduces with feelings. Her characters aim for the senses but wreak havoc on the heart. From the heat of passion to the soul of romance, The Unwilling Love is the start of something new.

Blurb:
Grant
I built my global security empire from nothing. Control and discipline are the only rules I live by. Some might call me ‘intense’. I prefer ‘meticulously prepared for every disaster imaginable.’
Growing up in a group home with my two brothers taught me the only lesson that mattered: never let anyone close enough to hurt you. As a CEO, I don’t improvise. I plan. I command.
When I’m hired to provide security for an engagement party, I expect an easy job.
Instead, I meet a woman who treats my rules like optional suggestions. I’m used to being obeyed. Ruby clearly doesn’t plan on doing that. Not even a little.
She tempts me like no one else ever has. Whenever we’re together, my thoughts drift in dangerous directions. Wanting her becomes an obsession. I want to give her everything. But surrendering control means breaking my own rules. And I’ve never done that before.
Ruby
I love my restaurant, my life, and finding the bright side of just about everything. Hosting my best friend’s engagement party? Easy. Fun. Right up my alley.
What I’m not prepared for is Grant Clifford—and his many, many rules.
He’s a fine specimen of a man. Unfortunately, he also comes with a massive stick lodged firmly up his gorgeous behind. Under that perfectly tailored suit is a man who desperately needs to loosen up. Preferably with me.
The closer I get, the more clearly I see the scars beneath his rigid exterior. And I want to heal them all. But how do I reach a man who refuses to let anyone in?

HAPPY PUBLIVERSARY: THE CONTRACT BY MELANIE MORELAND
The Contract—Melanie Moreland 📖
"Forever, seems a long time coming, but tends to never last long enough. Richard and Katy embody the best of love at the most heartbreaking of moments. They were and will always be my favorite Melanie Moreland couple." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

🎧Audio https://geni.us/TheContractAudio
📗Paperback https://geni.us/TheContract1
📚 Goodreads https://geni.us/TheContractGoodreads
A tyrant by day, a playboy by night. That is the reputation that precedes Richard VanRyan. He lives life the way he wants, no concern for the opinion of others. He cares for no one, is completely unrepentant, and he has no desire to change his ways.
Katharine Elliott works under Richard as his PA. She despises him and his questionable ethics, but endures all the garbage he sends her way, because she needs the job. Her end goal is far more important than the daily abuse and demands she tolerates from her nasty tyrant of a boss.
Until the day, he asks her for something she never expected. A new role with a personal contract — fiancée instead of PA.
What happens when two people who loathe each other, have to live together and act as though they are madly in love?
Sparks.
That’s what happens.
Can the power of love really change a person?
Will they survive the contract?
What do you do when the one person you hate the most becomes the one person you can’t live without?
She fussed over him. Made sure he looked right. "There. Now you're ready."
And then he asked—almost fearful of her answer—
"Are you ready?"
He's supposed to be the one in control here. He wrote the contract. He chose her.
And he's the one holding his breath.
*****
Did you catch what Melanie did here?
She gave him almost fearful of her answer.
Not confident. Not commanding. Fearful.
The man who wrote the contract. The man who had a plan for everything.
Waiting—breath held—for a woman he's still pretending doesn't matter.
"Are you ready?" "Yes." "Let's get married."
He moved before she could change her mind. Or maybe before he could. 👀

THE MOMENT IT ALL BEGAN (DUKE BROTHERS #6) BY LANI BLAKE
Release Date: May 16, 2026
Love wasn’t part of the plan. Neither was a baby.
Jay wasn’t a genius, but he was close. A man who remembered everything, solved problems others couldn’t, and used to think brains could fix anything. These days, he preferred peace, quiet, and zero complications. But Blue Jay was the complication he never saw coming—confident, beautiful, infuriating, and a girl from his past.
Blue Jay McAllister was having a week. Her designs were stolen, her career circling the drain, and her only comfort came with a corkscrew. Then fate decided to throw in one more twist—Jay Haddon. Once upon a time, she’d called him the least fashionable man alive. Now he was standing there looking like trouble in a suit. And after one amazing night together, she had a brand-new problem.

NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series surrounding the Nashville Rampage football team. Risk the Play is a single mom, coach, best friend's dad, forbidden, secret-relationship, age-gap romance.
Will
Football was always simple—follow the playbook, make the sacrifice, win the game.
I lived by that rule for decades, and it cost me everything. My marriage. My daughter.
By ten, she believed I loved the game more than her. Now she’s back in my life—with a family of her own—I fight every day to show her I’ve changed.
Then I fumble it all by falling for her best friend.
Amanda is strong, stubborn, and raising her daughter alone after her husband’s betrayal.
One kiss becomes something neither of us can ignore.
She wants to keep it secret. I don’t.
Because this time, I’m willing to risk the play. I won’t lose my second chance at love.
Amanda
I always knew I wanted to be a mother. I just never planned on doing it alone.
But when my ex got his assistant pregnant, I stopped, waiting for the life I thought I’d have—and choose motherhood for myself.
Now I’m a single mom doing my best to build a quiet, steady life with no drama and no risks.
Until my best friend’s father becomes the one risk I can’t resist.
Coach Warner is disciplined, respected… and completely off limits.
Watching him fight for his daughter only makes falling for him more dangerous.
We tell ourselves it’s just once.
But one reckless kiss turns into a night we can’t take back—and a secret we definitely can’t afford to keep.
Because if we’re discovered, I could lose my best friend…
And he could lose his daughter all over again.
Falling for me was never part of his playbook.
