Just My Luck by Jennifer Bernard is #NowLive!


Available on All Platforms









Where meet-cutes go wrong… or exactly right.



Everything's fine. Nothing to see here.



Just because billionaire Lincoln Kerr has misplaced a priceless piece of technology doesn't mean he can't fix the problem. All he has to do is go undercover as a gardener at a luxury Hawaiian resort, search the property, and convince everyone he's just another employee.



Easy.



Until the gorgeous and sunny concierge catches him in a very compromising position.



Zara Morrissey knows something is off about the resort's mysterious new gardener, but she can't quite figure out what. Raising her younger siblings doesn't leave her time for secrets—or charming men who keep showing up exactly when she needs them. 



And now Lincoln owes her.



When Zara recruits him to play temporary manny, she has no idea she's stumbled into a high-stakes tug-of-war over a dangerous new threat. She’s experienced her share of life’s crazy left turns, but she never saw this one coming. 



A billionaire in hiding. Tropical adventures. One unforgettable meet-cute. And suddenly Zara and Lincoln aren’t just falling for each other hard, they might be the only two people standing between paradise…and disaster.


REVIEWJUST MY LUCK (ACCIDENTALLY YOURS) BY JENNIFER BERNARD

Just My Luck (Accidentally Yours Book 2)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Accidental attraction tumbles dangerously in love and my heart was instantaneously, hooked. Under the radar romance meets over the top intrigue. Bernard keeps the senses on high alert. From sweet seduction to thrilling, heartache, Lincoln and Zara take emotions on a wildly, irresistible ride.

A hockey star’s mission: fix his new team. The problem? He’s falling for the coach’s off-limits daughter in this spicy, heartfelt romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Lauren Landish.

NHL defenseman Dominic Lee is traded mid-season with one job: save a struggling team from itself. The complication? Briar Johns—a guarded single mom, zookeeper, and his new coach’s daughter. She’s strictly off-limits, but one look at her and Dominic knows some rules are meant to be broken. Too bad hockey players—and relationships—are a firm never again for Briar.

Between surviving a toxic marriage, managing an emotionally absent father, and raising her son Harley, Briar only has room for things that bring joy. A cocky defenseman should never make that list. Dominic isn’t like the men from her past, though. He shows up for Harley’s practices. He listens. He does the dishes. And he’s patient enough to wait for her walls to come down.

When her father forbids their relationship and threatens Dominic’s career, the choice should be simple. Except Briar’s tired of letting fear win. And walking away from her and Harley? That’s the one play Dominic refuses to make.

THRILLING NEW PARANORMAL WOMEN'S FICTION ADVENTURE
Echoes of Magical Vengeance by Brenda Trim is available now!!









The gods are dying in their sleep. The killer calls it retribution.

It's three in the morning when Artemis manifests at Pymm's Pondside looking like death warmed over. With divine power flickering like a faulty light bulb and dark circles that shouldn't exist on a goddess, she's begging for help with nightmares that are literally killing her kind and Fiona Shakleton knows their hard-won week of peace is officially over.

The goddess of the hunt has never asked for anything. She demands, expects, and occasionally threatens. But asks? Never. Which means things are properly buggered.

The nightmares aren't random—they're echoes of magical vengeance from a mystery cult the Olympians destroyed centuries ago. A cult that discovered how to make gods mortal and paid for that knowledge with their lives. Now someone is channeling their collective rage into a weapon, systematically executing the divine beings responsible for their massacre. And with each god that dies screaming in their sleep, the vengeance spreads, infecting anyone with supernatural heritage and threatening to tear reality itself apart.

As the Backside of Forty digs deeper, they expose an uncomfortable truth. The mystery cult wasn't trying to destroy the gods, they were only trying to hold them accountable. The Olympians killed them not for being evil, but for threatening divine supremacy. Which raises the question no one wants to answer: are they fighting to stop mass murder or just protecting the powerful from consequences?

Fiona's still recovering from nearly losing herself to Roxy's corruption. Violet's phoenix nature is evolving in ways that blur the line between destruction and transformation. Aislinn's daughter is manifesting terrifying new abilities. And they're all being forced to choose between stopping a mass execution and acknowledging that maybe, just maybe, some gods deserve what's coming.

With two days until the new moon ritual that will kill every guilty deity simultaneously, the team must find a third option between revenge and impunity. Because if they fail, it won't just be gods who die—it'll be everyone caught in the crossfire when the boundary between mortal and divine realms shatters completely.

Retribution or responsibility. Murder or consequence. Sometimes the line between them is just semantics and desperation.

And the Backside of Forty is about to find out which side of that line they're really on.

Some nightmares hunt you. Others make you question whether you're the monster for trying to wake up.
