#Excerpt
God, he's swoony.
I flinch as I shift in the seat, reminded that I rode a horse for the first time this morning, and of course he catches it.
Tucker doesn't miss much.
“You okay?”
“Yeah, just stiff. Not used to riding a horse.”
He nods. “I bet you have a salve for that.”
With a laugh, I turn to face him. I'd rather look at him than the fire. “You know, I do. But I think a bath with some Epsom salts will do the trick.”
Tucker frowns. “Your tub is tiny. It's not really a soaking tub.”
“It's the only one I've got, Hotshot.”
“You'll use mine.”
I blink at him slowly. “Tucker—”
“We really need to work on your argumentativeness, Duchess,” he says slowly and crosses his arms over his chest. “You can soak in my damn tub. It's ten yards away.”
“You're bossy.”
He just grins at me, and I've never wanted to kiss someone so badly in my life. I can't take my eyes off his lips, and the longer I stare, the smile slowly falls away.
“Where did you go tonight?” he asks softly.
I could tell him that it's none of his business. He doesn't need to know every move I make. But he's not asking to be an asshole. He just wants to know.
“I went to the bar in town.”
He swallows thickly. “Date?”
I huff out a laugh. “No. Thought I'd try to find one, but no. I met Ivy, though, and she's really nice. Also, your brother won his game tonight.”
“I know. I watched it inside before I came out here.” He licks his lips. “I'm going to touch you.”
My throat locks up. I can't speak, so I just nod, and then he slowly, so slowly, reaches out and gently brushes my hair back behind my ear. His calloused fingertips drift down my jawline before his hand falls away, and he takes a long, deep breath.
“Come upstairs and soak in the tub, Darby. I won't do anything inappropriate.”
Well, that's a damn shame.
“Okay.” It's a whisper, and his lips tip up into that smile again.
Tucker stands and offers me his hand, and without thinking, I slide my palm against his and he pulls me out of the chair. He doesn't drop my hand as we walk to the house. In fact, he shifts, so our fingers are laced, and it feels so fucking good.
I don't want to flinch back. I don't want to yank my hand away. I don't have the heebie-jeebies from his touch. And I don't think that I've ever been this comfortable around a man in my life.
The farmhouse is everything I could ever dream of. It's everything my childhood home wasn't.
High ceilings with wooden beams, a pretty kitchen with clean granite countertops and a stove that looks like it's cooked many delicious meals for a loving family. The dining room seats eight, and the living room is cozy, with big leather furniture, a TV, and a beautiful fireplace.
Without a word, Tucker leads me up the stairs and down the hall to the primary suite, and when I step over the threshold, I instinctively take a deep breath. It smells like Tucker, like trees and fresh air with a hint of earth. His king-size bed is made with blue linens, and his furniture is simple but pretty.
“Bathroom's in here,” he murmurs, pulling me out of my reverie.
“Holy shit, it's brand new.”
I step inside, shocked by the black-and-white bathroom, with a double vanity, a shower the size of my cabin, and a claw-foot tub that makes me want to weep with joy.
Or rather, my ass wants to weep with joy.
“I remodeled it after Dad moved out,” he says, casually leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed over his chest. “I wanted to make it my own. So, I redid this and the bedroom.”
“That makes sense.”
He moves past me and turns on the faucet, then fetches a bag of Epsom salts out from under the sink and sets it on the countertop.
“Make yourself at home,” he says. “Would you like some wine? Or a beer?”
“No, I had a beer earlier. But thanks.”
He pauses and looks like he wants to say something else, but then he simply nods.
“Let me know if you need anything.”
“Tucker.”
He pauses in the doorway and looks back at me. God almighty, this man is beautiful.
“Yeah?”
“Thank you.”
He chuckles and pushes a hand through his hair. “I'm just relieved you didn't find another date.”
He shuts the door behind him, and I let out a breath.
That makes two of us.

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes the first installment of the Silver Springs series, Pretty Little Scars, a small-town, forbidden, forced proximity romance set in Montana!
I absolutely should not be attracted to my boss.
I'm living on Tucker Hendrix's ranch for the next year as a veterinary intern. But imagine my surprise when I walk onto the property on my first day and recognize the owner.
He's the mysterious customer I used to flirt with at the diner all those years ago.
Now, the chemistry is hotter than ever, and all I can think about is his muscles and the fact that none of my scars bother him.
He's seen everything that no one else has, and he's not running away from me, or the fact that I'm a Lexington sister and we come from a monster.
In fact, for the first time in my life, a man is patient, gentle, and treats me like I'm the most important thing in his universe. Like he can't live without me.
Like my scars aren't the failure of a lifetime.
I'm starting to see a life for myself here with this man, on this gorgeous Montana ranch. His family has welcomed me into the fold as if it were a foregone conclusion.
But someone is hell bent on hurting me and making sure I don't get the happy life I've worked so hard for.
Will they succeed? Or will Tucker and I come out the other side stronger than ever?

Second Edition by Tess Thompson releases on June 29th!
Read With Kindle Unlimited
Six years after losing her husband, Delphine has built a quiet life on control, routine, and careful distance. She runs her gallery by day. She raises her daughter. And in a small studio behind her cottage, she throws pots — slowly, patiently, for no one but herself — because clay is the only thing that's ever let her make something whole out of something broken.
She politely, firmly, and with increasing exasperation, declines every matchmaking attempt the good people of Willet Cove have made on her behalf for the last three years.
Delphine is fine. Delphine is fine.
Then fifteen-year-old Annie makes the bravest choice of her young life: she walks into a grief support group alone. And Delphine — who has spent six years refusing that same room — is undone.
She's not the only one who notices.
Dorian Flynn has always politely suggested that Delphine Delacroix might have opinions of her own about whom she dates. Then he sees a teenage girl sitting by herself in a room meant for grown-ups — and the fiercely guarded woman who comes to pick her up, clay still dried on her wrists — and realizes the entire town may have had a point all along.
Delphine is wary. Dorian is patient. And somehow, between hesitant conversations in quiet bookstore aisles, a watchful shop cat with opinions of his own, and a girl who deserves more than silence, an unlikely found family begins to form.
But letting someone in means risking the one thing Delphine has fought for six years to protect. And the longer she circles Dorian, the more she begins to suspect that the truth she's been outrunning — about her husband, about herself, about what she's really been afraid of — is finally ready to catch up with her.
Dorian is counting on it.
Second Edition is the fifth and final book in the Parent App series — a deeply emotional, slow-burn, behind-closed-doors small-town romance featuring a grumpy single-mom gallery owner and potter, a quiet Navy-veteran sunshine hero with a soft spot for the girl who needs him, found family, a meddling bookstore cat with opinions, meddling teenage matchmakers, and a powerful journey through grief, healing, and the terrifying hope of a second chance at love.

❤️🔥 HOT NEW PSYCHIC THRILLER ROMANCE 🔮
Get The Gift by Romantic Fiction by Maddie Taylor today!!
A lawman falls for a woman with a rare gift. A killer will stop at nothing to possess it.
Texas Ranger Vince Cooper trusts evidence, instincts, and the badge on his chest. Psychics? Not a chance. But when a brutal murder and a missing teenage girl lead him to Erica Stevens, Vince can't deny that the beautiful, boho artist knows things about the crime scene she shouldn’t.
Erica rarely talks about her gift. The visions strike without warning—someone else’s fear, memories that don’t belong to her, flashes of violence she can’t unsee. Helping a skeptical Ranger investigate a murder is the last thing she needs, even if the grounded, old‑school lawman watching her with equal parts suspicion and heat is impossible to ignore.
As they work the case together, preconceived notions give way to undeniable chemistry. Trust builds. Desire sizzles. Coop’s protective instincts flare to life. And everything between them changes.
But the investigation points straight to a ruthless Russian crime boss who collects debts in blood. When he learns about Erica’s ability, she becomes far more valuable than the money he’s hunting.
Now Coop isn’t just trying to solve a murder. He’s racing to save the woman he loves. Because once the boss decides something belongs to him, he never lets it go.

I've spent my life proving to my grandpa and dad that I'm more than just the Lewis family mistake. So when Grandpa sends me to Devon Falls, VT to take some ridiculous leaf festival to court, I head straight there and get to work.
But Dr. Jack Lancer keeps getting in my way.
He's everywhere. Helping me out with my migraines, making me dinner, insisting people be nice to me even though I’m the enemy. Who is this guy? The next thing I know I'm pretending to be Jack's boyfriend to get him out of a bind. I swear he's putting kindness pills in my food or something.
Jack thinks he can fix me the same way he fixes everyone else. But I'm not broken. This podunk town will be when I'm done with it, though. And Jack? Well, he's about to learn the meaning of the term "collateral damage." Because I'll do anything to win this case and end this festival.
Even if it means losing something that feels an awful lot like love.

He's been keeping the secret of her royal lineage the whole time...
Can she still trust the mysterious man who saved her?
If you love dragon rider romantasy, preorder A Crown of Wings & Wrath by Brenda Trim now!!
I survived my first year at Thornwick. That was the easy part.
They moved me to Stormwind Squadron—the military's dumping ground for riders who are too dangerous, too valuable, or too damaged for regular units. My new squadmates include a griffin rider who steals memories and a pegasus rider whose healing magic sometimes kills instead of cures.
We're the ones they don't trust. The ones they can't afford to lose.
The Forsaken are hunting anyone with royal blood. And my ability to amplify other riders' powers? That's a signature trait of House Vaelthorne, the royal family everyone thought died twenty years ago.
Turns out, I'm not just some foster kid who got lucky. I'm the last heir to a throne that doesn't exist anymore.
And Kael knew. The whole time.
Captain Kael Blackwater—the man I'm falling for despite every warning sign—was there the night my family was massacred. He's been lying to me since we met, protecting secrets that could get us both killed.
Now we're forced to work together on missions that grow deadlier by the day. Our dragons sync in ways that terrify our superiors. And when we finally kiss, the resonance between our bonds creates a firestorm visible for miles.
But Hollowmaw are breeding in underground tunnels, feeding on stolen dragon blood. The military is conducting illegal experiments on captured riders. And somewhere out there, a man claiming to be my father is building an army using blood magic that corrupts everything it touches.
Why does Kael look at me like he's mourning someone I used to be?
Why are riders with Vaelthorne abilities disappearing, their deaths ruled training accidents?
Why are the Hollowmaw suddenly evolving, targeting me specifically in ways that suggest someone's commanding them?
Kael has answers. About the massacre. About a father who might be alive or might be the architect of every horror I'm facing. About what my power really does and why the military would rather see me dead than risk losing control of me.
He's keeping me alive by keeping me complicit.
And I'm falling for him anyway—for the man who kisses me like an apology while hiding the truth about why things with teeth keep finding me, who might have orders to eliminate me the second my bloodline becomes more valuable dead than alive.
Surviving first year was supposed to be the hard part.
No one warned me the real test is deciding who to trust when everyone's keeping deadly secrets.
Welcome to Stormwind Squadron, where:
🔥 Misfits bond over shared damage (or kill each other)
🔥 Captains keep devastating secrets about your murdered family
🔥 Something is building an army using corrupted dragon blood
🔥 The man who saved you might be the one ordered to end you
🔥 Royal blood isn't a crown—it's a death sentence
