Evie and Slater were supposed to be friends. 

That was the first mistake.


She wants forever, but he’s always known he’s not built for it.


The last thing Evie Parker expected was for her boss’s best friend to witness her getting spectacularly dumped by a man who barely remembered they were dating in the first place. Desperate to escape her lackluster romantic history, Evie jumps at the chance to spend a month at Lakeview Harbor Resort. A fresh start is just what she needs…especially with Slater—the one person who’s always been easy.


Slater was never supposed to notice Evie. At least not like that. But somewhere between a competitive trivia game and a kiss that definitely didn’t mean anything, he can’t stop thinking about her. Having her at the resort was supposed to be easy. Evie was his friend—the last person who could complicate everything.


One kiss turns into one night and suddenly the lines between friendship and something more are impossibly blurred. They don’t make sense. They don’t fit. But forever might just be possible.

Just a Little Tempted (Sterling Family Crossover #3) by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde is #NowLive!









Release Date:  July 28, 2026


I never meant to fall for my boss.

When I was hired to be Simon’s assistant, everyone warned me he was impossible—brilliant, demanding, and obsessed with control. But after surviving two months of his rules and grumpy attitude, I’ve learned how to manage my boss. Maybe it’s my chaotic upbringing or the fact that I desperately need this job, but I can’t ignore the moments when his guarded edges soften… even if he pretends they don’t.

Then one nervous slip in front of a major client turns into a fake relationship neither of us can back out of. Now I’m Simon’s “girlfriend,” attending dinners, traveling for meetings, and sharing far too much close proximity with the man I’m not supposed to want. Pretending to belong to him shouldn’t feel real—but it does. And the hardest part isn’t keeping up the lie. It’s realizing I’m falling for him for real.

REVIEW: JUST A LITTLE TEMPTED (STERLING FAMILY CROSSOVER #3) BY CARLY PHILLIPS, ERIKA WILDE

Just a Little Tempted (A Sterling Family Crossover Novel Book 3)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The dynamic duo of romance is back. Phillips and Wilde take emotions to the limit. From the heat of passion to heartache of love, Simon and Raina are a wild ride. Attraction runs rampant and heartbrea#k cuts deep, but it's the soul of the journey that becomes to haunting to resist.

CHASING THE RUSH (FOOTBALL AND FEELS) BY LAUREN ROWE




Rudy meets Moneyball in a sexy yet warm-hearted, second-chance football romance for fans of Sarah Adams, Tessa Bailey, Monica Murphy, Kristen Callihan, Lucy Score, and, of course, “Tayvis,” as the analytical, math-nerd, type-A daughter of a tough love coach is assigned to babysit the team’s adrenaline junkie pass rusher.

**DELUXE LIMITED EDITION with interior 4-color character art, designed chapter headers, and stenciled edges!**


Release Date:  July 28, 2026







Chelsea Parker, 26, knows football, thanks to growing up with a football coach for a father and two linebackers for brothers. But Chelsea’s true passion has always been math: crunching numbers to predict statistical outcomes for everything from football to stocks to romance. Chelsea dreams of merging her two passions to become the first female head of analytics for an NFL team. But for now, she’s got to convince the powers-that-be at her father’s new team, the Mastodons, the worst in the NFL, to give her that entry-level position in the front office.

Luca Maguire, 26, a pass rusher and adrenaline junkie with a famous last name, knows this upcoming training camp with his new team, the Mastodons, will likely be his last, if he can’t get out of his own way long enough to make the cut. The dire nature of his circumstances is the only reason Luca didn’t quit on the spot when Coach Parker assigned his daughter, Chelsea, a statistics-loving, spreadsheet-making math nerd, as Luca’s “personal coach” for the duration of camp. More like his babysitter, if you ask Luca.

Well, okay, Luca didn’t quit for that reason and another one: the thing that happened seven years ago between Luca and Chelsea as strangers, when Luca’s college football team stayed at the same hotel as Chelsea’s mathletes squad. Luca would never admit this to Chelsea, especially not with her being Coach’s daughter and the newly assigned bane of his existence, but the truth is Luca hasn’t stopped thinking about that cute little mathlete who ditched his ass seven years ago, right before their clothes came off, ever since.

REVIEW: CHASING THE RUSH (FOOTBALL AND FEELS) BY LAUREN ROWE


Chasing the Rush (Football and Feels #2)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Uniquely, perfect. Rowe highlights the beauty of being different. Chelsea and Luca break down barriers by being true to themselves. Through the laughter and heartache, Chasing the Rush celebrates diversity and acceptance. Resilience becomes a stepping stone that leaves it's mark on the soul.

Grumpily Yours by Teagan Hunter is now live on audio!


When a blacklisted chef is forced to work for a grumpy ex–NHL player, sparks fly in and out of the kitchen. A steamy workplace romance about rebuilding dreams, breaking rules, and finding forever.


When a public meltdown ruins chef Summer Turner’s career, she flees to her hometown in the Pacific Northwest, hoping to rediscover her passion for cooking. Summer doesn’t want to work for someone else again, but when her father secures her a job at a local cidery, she doesn’t dare say no, even if it means working for scowling former NHL player Ezra Rawlings.

Summer’s determined to prove she’s not a failure, while Ezra’s convinced he’s too broken for love. But two stubborn hearts might be exactly what each other needs—if they’re brave enough to stop running.

The Irresistible One by Marni Mann is now live in audio!


"Mann strikes the match that allows Hamilton and Ketchum to ignite the fire. From sensory overload to emotional upheaval, The Irresistible One holds nothing back. Taboo finds it's soul without ever losing it's heart." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton & Desiree Ketchum


A naughty enemies-to-lovers, single dad, billionaire romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …

I’m the irresistible one. The man who always gets what he wants. Too bad the only woman I want is the one I can’t have.


Dating apps can’t touch the dark and uninhibited desires I keep hidden. For the kind of kink I crave, I go to Lush—a playground where fantasies become reality.
That’s where I meet her.
The breathtaking blonde in the crimson dress who steals the air from my lungs, becoming an instant fixation after just one night.
Daring.
Uninhibited.
Captivating.
One taste will never be enough.
And when we meet again, it’s the worst possible scenario …
The sexy bombshell who ruined me for anyone else is now the one person who is completely out of my reach.
Off-limits.
Untouchable.
Forbidden.
The absolute enemy of everything I stand for.
But when scorching chemistry, razor-sharp banter, and an undeniable attraction collide, staying away from her is no longer an option.

What happens when the woman I can’t have becomes the only one I can’t resist?

Her Cyborg Bounty Hunters by Susan Hayes is #nowavailable!

https://geni.us/HerCyborgBountyHunters

Read With Kindle Unlimited





She’s alone, in trouble, and needs to disappear.

Corporations call it a service contract. Tish calls it slavery with an expiry date. On the run from her new owner, she’s working off the books and keeping out of sight until it’s safe to come out of hiding.

It was a simple, straightforward plan…but when does a plan ever survive contact with reality?

They swore they were done fighting other people’s battles.

Best friends. Bounty hunters. Cyborg batch-brothers. Mace and Sabre have carved out a life for themselves since the end of the Resource Wars, but they never found a place that felt like home.

These two battle-weary veterans are about to discover that for them, home isn’t a place. It’s a person. And they will go to war again if that’s what it takes to keep her safe.
