She's been looking for the right man her entire life.
Everyone knows who it is—except her.


Single mom Esme Taylor doesn't do risk. Not anymore. She runs her flower shop in the small coastal town of Willet Cove, raises two kids, and never again depends on a man who might leave when things get hard.


But there's one man she lets close.


Grady Nash has been her best friend for five years. He fixes what breaks, shows up when she calls, and loves her kids unconditionally. He feels like everything she needs.


Which is exactly the problem.


Because Grady runs a surf shop, lives simply, and seems content with very little. To Esme—who needs security, stability, a man with a future—he looks like everything she can't afford to risk.


What she doesn't know is that Grady is hiding a past so toxic, he'll do anything to keep it from touching her life.


A past that comes with a fortune he's never claimed. A scandal that destroyed everything he was. And a truth that—if it ever surfaces—could bring danger and scrutiny crashing down on the family he's sworn to protect.


When buried feelings force them past the safety of friendship, Esme must decide if she can trust the man who's been lying to her for years.


And Grady must choose between the life he's built in the shadows—or risking everything, including her safety, for the love he's never stopped wanting.


Because some secrets are kept to protect the people we love.
And some will test whether love is strong enough to survive the truth.


A clean and wholesome friends-to-lovers romance set in a small coastal town from USA Today Bestselling author Tess Thompson.



REVIEW: SECOND BLOOM (THE PARENT APP) BY TESS THOMPSON 

Second Bloom (The Parent App #3)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Second Bloom is a heartbreaker with heartwarming tendencies. Thompson pushes emotions outside of their comfort zone and delivers haunting romance. From irresistible characters to unpredictable circumstance, Esme and Grady are a sweet surrender I'd gladly experience again and again.

“Steamy and suspenseful, with a couple to root for and an evil villain to hate, [this] is the kind of romantic suspense I love to read!”—NYT Bestselling Author Christy Reece




He never planned to fall for her.


Now he'll risk everything to save her.

As a special agent--and a self-proclaimed bachelor--Brian Malone has rules that keep his life controlled and complication-free.

Until Tess Bingham.

Tess has sacrificed too much to gamble on a man with a reputation for being a player. She put med school on hold to raise her teenage brother, Andy, and built a stable life working as the medical examiner's assistant.

When a storm damages their home, Brian offers Tess and Andy the use of his family's beach house while repairs are made. Soon, he's checking in far more often than necessary--and pretending the attraction between them doesn't exist becomes impossible.

Then Tess disappears.

Now Brian isn't just investigating a crime...he's hunting the people responsible. 

Because this isn't just another case. It's the woman who won his heart.

And he'll break every rule to bring her home.

Tempting The Seal by Shaw Hart releases on April 7th!

https://geni.us/TemptingTheSeal

Available with Kindle Unlimited




Neither of them planned for this.

Fern:
I’ve orchestrated dozens of perfect weddings, but planning my cousin’s lavish seaside ceremony might be my breaking point.
Between demanding relatives and last-minute disasters, I’m close to losing my mind.
The only bright spot is the quiet, watchful man stationed near the doors.
The second I see Jackson, I forget all about floral arrangements and the stress of my job.
When he looks at me, I feel things that I've never felt before.
He’s a Navy SEAL, a man built for danger and discipline, and for some reason, every time I smile at him, his jaw tightens like I’m a problem he can’t solve.
I tell myself not to care, that a man like him would never be interested in me, but I can't seem to help myself.
I want the sexy SEAL.
I just have no idea how to make that happen.

Jackson:
I’m only doing security at this fancy coastal wedding as a favor to my friend.
The job is supposed to be easy.
Just smile. Scan the exits. Stay professional.
That was the plan… until I see her.
Fern, with her warm eyes, mouthwatering curves, and sugar-sweet smiles.
One look and I know I don’t just want a week with her.
I want everything.
Now I just need to convince her that we’re meant to be and that the next wedding she’s planning needs to be ours.

He's been avoiding her for years, but not any longer...
Sun Up to Sun Down by Janine Infante Bosco is bringing the small town second chance heat!
Preorder your copy at your favorite retailer now!












Welcome to Saddle Ridge, where life is hard and love is wild...

Maddox

I'm no stranger to hard work. I've got a family ranch that's on the brink of collapse, a grandfather whose health is fading, and a laundry list of other responsibilities that demand my constant attention.

Every sunrise brings a new fight. There's no time to worry about what might have been with the girl who got away.

But it seems I've avoided Amelia King for as long as I can.

One reckless ranch hand making trouble at her bar is more than I can afford. Her outlaw cousin and his gang of gearheads won't take kindly to the mess my man has made. So I swallow my pride and head into town to make things right.

The moment I spot her, she takes my breath away. Still gorgeous and igniting that familiar fire in my veins, just the sight of her brings back all of my memories. But before I can grab a broom or write a check for the damages, an unexpected phone call interrupts our chaotic reunion.

With my grandfather's legacy now on the line, I'm desperate to preserve it if it's the last thing I do. We're facing an enemy with a dangerous connection to Amelia of all people, and they're determined to stop me no matter who gets hurt in the process. As the stakes get higher, lives hang in the balance, so I do exactly what my sister begs me not to. Forming an alliance with the Fallen Demons Motorcycle Club could cost my family everything. But there's something more dangerous than going into business with the outlaws: admitting I'm in love with their vice president's cousin.

The truth won't break them... but their desire might.


Preorder What Lies Between Us by Romantic Fiction by Maddie Taylor today!




Preorder it here 👇

https://geni.us/WhatLiesBetweenUs





She played a part for the mission. Falling for him wasn’t in the plan.

Gabriella Flores goes undercover at Devil’s Pointe to find the monsters who stole her sister. She plans deception and prepares for danger. What she finds is entirely unexpected: the one man who awakens something fierce and undeniable inside her. Her pretense is necessary. The fallout is devastating.

Rhys Langston built his life on control and precision, trusting nothing he can’t contain. When Gaby’s cover is blown and her past as a detective comes to light, he’s tempted to walk away—to protect himself. Instead, he steps in. As her partner. Her protector. And, for the sake of the mission, the man she must pretend to belong to.

Forced to work side by side, they follow the last fragile trail that may lead to Gaby’s sister—posing as something far more intimate than either anticipated. Every shared risk, every calculated touch draws them closer, blurring the line between cover and truth.

As the hunt closes in on a powerful enemy who plays for keeps, Gaby and Rhys must rely on the very bond that shouldn’t exist. Because when everything is on the line, it isn’t the truth that threatens to break them—it’s what lies between them.

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.
