BLURB

Nate Wells has only ever been my best friend's older brother...until he volunteers to be my fake boyfriend.
Getting dumped a week before my sister's wedding wasn't part of the plan.

Neither was showing up single and giving my family one more reason to question every life choice I've ever made.
So when Nate Wells offers to be my fake boyfriend for the weekend, it seems like the perfect solution.
Except he’s really good at pretending.
Every time he stands between me and my judgmental family, I find myself drawn a little closer. Every look, every laugh, every time he reaches for my hand makes me wonder how I never saw the man right in front of me.
And because the universe has a twisted sense of humor…there’s only one bed in our hotel room.
The wedding is supposed to be the end of our pretending. Instead, we’re forced to keep up the ruse, and the longer we do, the harder it becomes to remember what’s real.
But I have to, because falling for Nate isn’t an option.

If this all unravels, I won’t just lose him. I’ll lose everything that matters to me too.


REVIEW: LET'S BE REAL (THE WELLS BROTHERS) BY JULIA WOLF
Let's Be Real (The Wells Brothers)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Heat and heart take the spotlight and leave a lasting impression. Wolf holds nothing back. Nate and Sam wrap themselves around your soul and let all their emotions shine through. I have loved getting to know the Wells brothers. From spicy to sweet, each one has stolen away with more than a little piece of my heart.

Julia Wolf writes sexy rockers, grumpy billionaires, snarky heroines, and bad ass women. She’s a firm believer in happily ever afters, no matter how rocky the road is to get there.


She doesn’t believe in “guilty pleasures”, only pleasure. Reading about a plus size woman who gets absolutely railed by a hot rock star is pleasure. Reading about a damaged college student whose flaws are valued and loved by the grumpy guy next door is pleasure. Reading about love in a small town or big city or on a tour bus is pleasure. Reading romance is pleasure!


Julia lives in Maryland with her husband and three crazy, beautiful children. When she’s not writing romance, she’s reading it. Some of her favorite things are, in no particular order: goats, books, coffee, and Target.

Fifteen books just got a glow-up.

The entire Vested Interest world—all eight of the originals, plus the whole ABC Corp side of the family—has been rebranded, and the new covers are live!

 

 

 

 "From battered hearts to endearing romance, Moreland continues to speak the language of the heart with inspirational stories, irresistible romance and unforgettable characters that leaves the eyes damp and the heart full every time a page is turned." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)


 

 "Magnetic. Complicated. Heartbreaker. With an enigmatic hero that ties your heart in knots and a heroine that refuses to be ignored, Moreland scores a bullseye." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




















Same books. Same words inside. Nothing new to buy and nothing you’re missing. They just look like what they actually are now.

If you’ve never touched this world: it’s private equity, billionaires who would burn the building down for the people they love, and a found family that keeps growing across two connected series. BAM—The Beginning is the prequel, and it is permanently free, so there is genuinely no reason not to start.

Straight from Melanie: “The rebrand we’ve talked about is happening now. It’s a slow roll as Amazon approves.”

So if you look one up and still see the old cover, give it a minute. The retailers catch up at their own pace.

SIN BIN WITH THE SCROOGE (PUCKS AND PRESENTS) by @authorbrookeobrien is releasing on audio September 22!

Why you will love this book...

🌲New Adult/College
🏒Pro Hockey Player

🌲Forced Proximity/Snowed In

🏒Ex-Boyfriend's Brother

🌲Christmas

🏒Only One Bed




It’s the most wonderful time of the year... to end up snowed in with your ex-boyfriend's brother.

Clay Barlowe’s NHL career ended the night his knee gave out. One torn ACL was bad enough. The second? Game over.

Now he’s the guy with a reputation—grumpy, stubborn, hotheaded. Every teammate would agree he’s impossible, and he hasn’t bothered to prove them wrong. Coaching might be his second chance…if he can avoid distractions and keep the rumors under wraps.

Which is why being snowed in with Tessa St. James is a temptation he can’t afford.

Their families spent every Christmas together. Everyone thought she’d grow up to marry Clay’s brother. No one knew her heart quietly belonged to Clay.

She’s sunshine, sugar cookies, and Christmas cheer. He’s a grinch, cold as ice, with more coal than candy canes.

When one stolen kiss under the mistletoe leads to one night tangled up by the fire, Tessa isn’t just snowed in…

She’s stuck in the sin bin with the scrooge.

And this holiday season, the only thing at risk is her heart.


REVIEW: SIN BIN WITH SCROOGE (PUCKS AND PRESENTS) BY BROOKE O'BRIEN 

Sin Bin with the Scrooge: A Pucks and Presents Standalone
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Temptation that wears it's heart on it's sleeve. O'Brien finds a way to merge heat and heart into captivating. Clay may be hard to love but his pain is easy to understand. Tessa is a distraction that may be just what he needs. Frustrating and funny meets irresistibly, unforgettable.

Blurb: 


Josh Hurst was supposed to be my forever. I gave him my heart. He broke it without flinching. So, I did what any self-respecting, heart-shattered girl would do—I declared war.



Our revenge game? Legendary.


Until I left for college and swore I’d never look back.


But life doesn’t care about vows made in the dark.



When my father dies unexpectedly, I’m dragged back to the hometown I outgrew, handed guardianship of my grieving kid brother, and forced to take over my father’s struggling veterinary clinic.



And waiting for me—like karma with a smirk—is Josh.



Not as a memory.


Not as a ghost.


But as my new business partner.



Avoiding him? Impossible.


Forgetting what we were? Laughable.



He still looks at me like I’m his. Like we’re a story paused instead of over. Like one spark is all it would take.



And God help me, the spark is still there.


But we don’t do soft. We don’t do safe.


We do oil and fire. War and wreckage.


Whatever we once were—Whatever we still could be—We’re enemies.



And this time, nobody’s walking away unburned

Just Like That (The Kings #4) by Lena Hendrix


Release Date: September 29th


What to Expect:


Forbidden Romance


Forced proximity


Billionaire MMC


Surprise single dad


Alpha male


Grumpy/sunshine


Enemies to lovers


He’s my sister’s ex, a stubborn jerk, and completely off-limits.

Getting a man to give up custody of a son he didn’t know existed should have been easy. Trouble is, nothing with JP King is ever easy.

Suave, grumpy billionaires aren’t supposed to have strong hands or filthy mouths, and I never expected our snippy banter to be so much fun.

JP regards me as something he scraped off the bottom of his dress shoe, but when this reluctant single dad looks at my nephew, there’s a softness there he struggles to keep hidden.

He may be gruff and uptight, but something simmers beneath his controlled, polished exterior. Sure, I’m wild and reckless, but when we’re forced together as guardians, everything changes.

His cold and calculated exterior melts into hushed conversations and lingering stares. The more we fight, the harder we fall.

I’m scatterbrained, unconventional, and everything he’s been missing. The closer we get, the less we understand why we were ever at odds.

. . . until just like that our lives are turned upside down.

MANHATTAN BOSSHOLES: A SIX BOOK BILLIONAIRE BOSS ROM-COM BOXSET by LESLIE NORTH


"Addictive reading. A push and pull showstopper that will steal your breath and melt your heart." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)



Release Date: September 17, 2026


Six billionaires bossholes. Six women who refuse to be bossed around. Six irresistible ways to fall in love.

Billionaire? Check.
Gorgeous? Check.
Certified bosshole? Double check.


These powerful Manhattan men are used to getting everything they want—until they meet the women who refuse to fall for their wealth, charm, or impossible demands.

From fake relationships and workplace sparks to second chances and inconvenient attraction, this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy collection from USA Today bestselling author Leslie North delivers six connected romances full of sparks, sass, and steam.

The Bossy One
Olivia St. James is made of tough stuff. She can make it through one summer with a sexy Irish curmudgeon. At least, that was the plan—until Declan Bryne revealed an actual, beating heart under all his growling. Keeping things professional is hard enough when your boss looks like temptation in a tailored suit. Kissing him would cross the line. Sleeping with him? That would be a one-way ticket to nanny jail.

The Grumpy One
When fashion mogul James Branson discovers cleaner Natalie Greenwood’s hidden design journal, he offers her the opportunity of a lifetime. The problem? He may be infuriatingly handsome and obscenely rich, but he has all the warmth of a slammed door. Natalie’s plan is simple: show up, do the job, and absolutely do not picture her boss without his clothes on. Easy. Probably.

The Grouchy One
Felicity knows two things about Cameron O’Connor: he’s the most infuriating man in the jewelry business—and her new boss. When a publicity stunt suddenly paints them as secret lovers, Felicity and Cameron are forced to play along. Fake dates and fake kisses are one thing. Falling for the impossible billionaire behind the scowl? Definitely not part of the arrangement.

Crashing into Mr. Wrong
Vincent Forde has designer suits, a scorching stare, and an ego the size of his bank account—everything Piper Doyle hates in a man. Unfortunately, he needs her help tracking down a rare perfume ingredient, and he’s willing to pay very well. There’s just one catch: he also wants her to pretend to be his girlfriend. Piper’s supposed to hate him… not melt every time he gets too close.

On the Rocks
Cora enters a cocktail contest to win the money she needs to open her dream speakeasy. Everything is going according to plan until her ex, Aiden Calihan, walks back into her life. He’s brooding, powerful, and the face of a luxury liquor empire. When he offers her a career-making job creating the ultimate nonalcoholic drink for his brand, Cora is determined to keep it strictly business. Because this time, falling for him again could shatter her heart for good.

Designed for Disaster
Natasha learned the hard way that trusting people only leads to trouble. So when Trent Saunders—the gorgeous grump who once got her fired—offers her a chance to design custom furniture for his grandmother, she knows better than to say yes too quickly. Especially when his sweet grandmother mistakes Natasha for his girlfriend, and Trent asks her to play along. Natasha isn’t falling for his whole good-guy act. No matter how convincing it starts to feel.

Six billionaires. Six love stories. Zero chance of stopping at book one.

REVIEW: MANHATTAN BOSSHOLES: A SIX BOOK BILLIONAIRE BOSS ROM-COM BOXSET by LESLIE NORTH

Manhattan Bossholes: A Six Book Billionaire Boss Rom-Com Boxset

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Addictive reading. The heat is on. Temptation burns bright. Emotions run deep. Heartache is inevitable. Fire and ice collide with love and hate to create a push and pull showstopper that will steal your breath and melt your heart. Love on the edge has never felt so satisfying.

FALLING FOR LOVE (DARE TO FALL #3) BY CARLY PHILLIPS is #nowavailable exclusively on Amazon and #KindleUnlimited!




 " ....a breathless, heartache.  A beautiful mess becomes an endearing, romance that leaves an imprint on the soul." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)




Release Date: September 17, 2026


One reckless night was supposed to be forgettable.
Instead, it changed everything.

I wasn’t looking for trouble when I met Jack Dare in a Charleston bar.

But one look at the devastatingly handsome stranger and suddenly I wanted things I’d spent years denying myself.

Freedom.
Desire.
Him.

So for one night, I stopped being careful.

One drink turned into stolen kisses.
One kiss turned into a night I still can’t forget.
And by morning, I disappeared before Jack could learn the truth about me.

Because men like him don’t survive people like my ex-boyfriend.

Powerful. Ruthless. Obsessed with control.
The kind of man who doesn’t let go once he decides you belong to him.

I thought leaving was the only way to protect Jack.

Until two pink lines changed everything.

Now I’m standing outside his Miami doorstep pregnant, terrified, and running out of options.

But the man who opens the door isn’t shocked.
He’s furious someone made me afraid to come to him.

Jack Dare is protective, relentless, and impossible to walk away from.
The kind of man who would burn the world down for the people he loves.

And the more danger closes in around us, the harder it becomes to remember this was never supposed to be forever.

Because Jack isn’t letting me run again.

And for the first time in my life…
I don’t want to.

Perfect for readers who love surprise pregnancy, one-night stands that turn into forever, protective alpha heroes, emotional intensity, dangerous exes, found safety, and guaranteed happily-ever-afters.

REVIEW: FALLING FOR LOVE (DARE TO FALL #3) BY CARLY PHILLIPS 
  

Falling for Love (The Dare to Fall Series Book 3)Falling for Love by Carly Phillips
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jack and Taylor turn a one night stand into a breathless, heartache. Falling for Love takes the senses of wild goose chase that is littered with danger and driven by love. A beautiful mess becomes an endearing, romance that leaves an imprint on the soul.

Trying It All by Christi Barth releases on October 12th!

https://geni.us/TryingItAll


Read With Kindle Unlimited




He lives by the rules. She thrives on breaking them.

Attention to detail. Order. Never leaving anything to chance. Those are the qualities that make Riley Ness a terrific NTSB agent—and an absolute nightmare for anyone who believes life should come with a little spontaneity.

After a tragic accident bound him to his best friends and turned them into brothers by choice, Riley learned the hard way that risk comes with consequences. These days, he keeps his life controlled and predictable.

Summer Sheridan is everything he avoids.

Free-spirited, impulsive, and impossible to ignore, she is chaos personified. She lives in the moment, and takes particular pleasure in pushing every one of Riley’s buttons. Worse, she’s made a target of the wildly popular podcast Riley created with his friends, putting the two of them on opposite sides of a very public feud.

He thinks she needs a lesson in reality.

She thinks he desperately needs to loosen up.

But somewhere between the arguing, the teasing, and all that inconvenient chemistry, enemies start looking a lot more like something else. Especially once the fighting turns into kissing.

Now Riley must decide what matters more: protecting the life he’s carefully built… or risking it for the one woman who refuses to play by his rules.

Falling for each other might be the biggest disaster of all…

Mechanic's Christmas Match by Clara Pines releases on October 6th!


Available on Kindle Unlimited





What happens when a lonely mechanic falls for the matchmaker trying to brighten his Christmas?

Rory Dunn moved to Trinity Falls last year for a fresh start, close to the only family he has. After years of fixing up motorcycles while trying to dodge a gang in the city, he’s relieved to have a good job at a repair shop in a tight-knit small town where everyone knows his name.

The only problem he can’t seem to solve is the way he feels about Ana Gutierrez, the owner of the local dress shop. Rory’s heart aches every time he catches sight of Ana. But she has a busy life she shares with her mother and the three-year-old nephew she adopted last winter.

Besides, with his unhappy past, Rory isn’t sure he’s worthy of being her man.

So, when Ana tries to set him up with a friend, Rory decides to go along with it. After all, it’s an excuse to spend more time with Ana and her family. And besides, the woman Ana has in mind won’t actually fall for him—he’ll make sure of that.

But as the holiday season kicks into gear, Rory, Ana, and adorable Theo start to spend more time together, and Rory starts to wonder if he can keep his feelings to himself. Especially when just about everyone in town seems to have big opinions about who this mechanic’s Christmas match should really be.

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time. The Trinity Falls Sweet Romance: Village Christmas inspirational series celebrates the people who live and work in a small Pennsylvania town at Christmastime, and find love and meaning in the season. If you love no spice books with cowboys, single dads, found family, caring community, and slow burn romance that makes you smile and sigh, this is the series for you!
