BELIEVE IN US (HEARTFIRE FALLS #4) BY J.H. CROIX








Release Dates:


#BuyNow


Amazon/#KindleUnlimited -





She came to Alaska to escape from the hurt. He came back to the place that took the most.

When I found out my ex was cheating on me with my best friend, I lost my baby, my marriage, and my best friend in one swoop. Months later, I packed up the broken pieces of my life and took a job at Heartfire Falls Resort in Alaska.

When Lincoln Silver walks into my office, I take in his tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed presence and tell my pulse to chill out. The Silver family owns the resort, so technically I work for Lincoln. Minor detail.

Lincoln left this place years ago after a wildfire took part of his heart. He came home because he couldn't stay away forever. He's a firefighter now, spending his life protecting everyone else from the very thing that nearly broke him.

We keep bumping into each other in the dark hours when we can’t sleep. Both of us pretend we're getting water.
I'm still receiving apology texts from my ex-bestie. When Lincoln discovers me crying after reading one, he protects me. From texts. He’s that kind of man.

I came here to Alaska for a fresh start. I wasn't expecting him. I wasn't expecting to want anything from anyone again. I definitely wasn't expecting to find someone whose nights feel like mine.

A steamy he-falls-first, slow-burn, hurt/comfort small town Alaska romance about a woman rebuilding herself after betrayal, a man dealing with grief and loss, and the kind of love that arrives in the middle of the night.
A full-length standalone romance


REVIEW: BELIEVE IN US (HEARTFIRE FALLS #4) BY J.H. CROIX

Believe in Us (Heartfire Falls #4)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Croix takes the soul on a stroll through heartbreak. Chloe and Lincoln turn haunting, emotion into unforgettable romance. Believe in Us takes a trek through the many facets of love. From the pain of betrayal, to the trauma of loss, love finds salvation in the lessons of heartache it encounters along the way.

CHECK OUT THIS EXCERPT HERE!

 

My appetite sours and I push the mini tacos away after only eating two. “Why are you doing this?”

Chance jolts when my voice smashes the silence. “I miss you.”

“And it took you nearly seven years to figure that out?”

His stubbled jaw clenches. “I missed you even before I lost you.”

“That doesn’t make sense. You never had me to lose.”

“I did, Wildflower. There’s no denying what we meant to each other. You rarely strayed far from my side until I forced you to shy away.” His tone is desolate, matching the loneliness in my soul.

“Is this the part where you beg for another chance?”

His nod is a fast dip. “I want to explain myself.”

“You’ve done that already. Multiple times.”

“But you didn’t really hear me.”

“I heard you just fine, but I chose not to listen.” Although, now that he mentions it, some closure might be what I’m missing. “Go for it, Bronc. I’m all ears.”

He narrows his eyes, scanning my features for deceit as if I’m the problematic one of us. “Does what I have to say mean anything to you?” 

The answer is no. It won’t change anything except maybe shed some light on his shitty behavior. Whatever he’s going to confess is years too late. 

I settle on a shrug. “We’re about to find out.”

 

BLURB


There’s no fixing what he broke…

Gemma
Accidents happen and mine took me out of the race.
After months of recuperation, I’m finally ready to get back in the saddle. But the rodeo circuit isn’t what it used to be.

Chance Benson isn’t either. The broody cowboy I once considered my best friend seems more interested in riding buckle bunnies than broncos. His reputation is a scandal I’ve unsubscribed from.

At least until the truth comes out. What Chance really needs is a lesson in love. Maybe I can find it in my broken heart to teach him.

Chance
I’m in love with my best friend. Actually, scratch that. Gemma Keaton considers herself more of an enemy these days, which I accept full responsibility for.

It was a gamble and I ended up losing it all. Well, everything except my virginity. That I’m saving for Gemma. She just has to forgive me first.
Or maybe not.

As it turns out, my former friend is very interested in being my first. The only catch? Gemma refuses to be more than that.

I’m nothing if not up for a challenge, but the stakes are higher than ever. Especially when the past is determined to destroy us.

It comes down to proving myself and this time, I won’t let anything stop me from claiming Gemma as mine.

Roped in Rawhide is a:
childhood best friends to enemies to lovers
grumpy cowboy x sunshine cowgirl
he falls first
virgin hero
scarred heroine
it's always been you
small town romance


This is a standalone within the Cloverleaf Meadows series, which can all be read in any order.

An enemies to lovers romantasy

https://geni.us/Nameless

Read Now With Kindle Unlimited






They put me with the Unclaimed because I have no magic.

Every twenty years, competitors from across Braelorn enter the Eldryn Trials for the ultimate prize—a wish granted by the goddess Elyra.

Anyone can compete. But those without magic are Unclaimed.

The royals think that makes us weak.

They’re wrong.

No one can wield magic during the Trials. And while they’ve spent their lives relying on their power, I’ve spent mine surviving without it.

No one knows I’m the Raven, a feared assassin.

I need to win. Elyra’s wish is my only chance to restore my fallen kingdom.

But a dangerously tempting Fae prince is watching me far too closely. I have to stay one step ahead of him.

I can’t let him discover who I really am.

And I can’t afford to lose.

Nameless is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romantasy and the first book in The Unclaimed Kingdom series, filled with deadly trials, hidden identities, dangerous secrets, and a heroine no one sees coming.


Tropes:
• Enemies to Lovers
• Assassin Heroine
• Deadly Trials
• Secret Identity
• Slow Burn Romance

PARANORMAL ROMANCE 🤝 MOTORCYCLE CLUB ROMANCE


Bloodstained Chrome by E.C. Land is now live on Amazon and free to binge with #KindleUnlimited!






The beast inside me never needed anyone until her...

Primal

I don't play well with others. Solitude suits the lion clawing at my insides. Especially when she's in the room.

Sibley is an anomaly. Older than time but hauntingly pure. She's been waiting for her mate, and she's convinced that I'm him. But I don't do destiny and I'm not interested in forever.

So why can't I get her out of my head and out of my space?

Because the ruthless predator inside me knows the truth. Every time she looks at me, the hunger grows. No matter how high I build the walls, the ancient tether between us just gets stronger. And a beast can only ignore his nature for so long.

Eventually, I'm going to stop running. And when I do, no one will stop me from making her mine.

Can arranged marriages end with happily-ever-afters?

Eleanor Villiers, now Lady Hyde and originally a reluctant wife to Lord Edwin, has fallen in love with her husband without the reassurance that he loves her back. It's literally the very situation she'd wanted to avoid by marrying a man who loved her more than she loved him, so that she wouldn't turn into the miserable, neglected wife that her mother was. Stubborn and spirited, Eleanor begins to try out various tactics to discover her husband's true feelings towards her, only to find that she knows very little about love. Unfortunately her antics constantly lead her into situations where disciplinary measures become necessary, and Edwin's punishments are as exciting as they are painful.

Irene has married Eleanor's brother Hugh Stanley, Viscount Petersham, even though she's in love with another man. Her mother has reassured her that within the ton it is perfectly acceptable to marry one man and be another's mistress, as long as she gives her husband the requisite heirs first. On their honeymoon to Hugh's estates, Irene finds her emotions becoming increasingly confused she becomes more and more fond of her husband - is it possible to love two men at once? Under his gentle care and approval her true self begins to emerge out in the countryside, leading to some unsafe behavior on her part which requires Hugh's immediate attention.   He never wanted a rebellious wife who would need constant discipline, but he doesn't hesitate to mete it out when necessary.

As the ladies struggle with their notions of love, the men struggle with the hot and cold temperaments of their wives, and all of them wonder if, and how, they can make their marriages work.

IT'S TWISTED SISTER PREORDER TIME ✨


Bayou Bones & Evil Thrones Brenda Trim is coming soon!





Reserve your copy here 👇

https://geni.us/BayouBones




The Six Twisted Sisters didn't survive this long by saying yes to things they didn't understand.

They said yes anyway.

One weekend. A cooking competition. Camera crews and string lights and tourists who'd never look close enough to see what lived in the shadows behind the charm. The plantation had played this role before—beautiful, composed, hiding its teeth—and the sisters were good at maintaining a mundane appearance. Probably too good.

Turns out they should've kept their heads down.

Something has been waiting in the bayou south of their property line since before New Orleans had cobblestones. Something long-suffering. Something that perseveres. After all, impatience is for things that haven't learned to fail well. This has failed a hundred times and still returned, sharpened by each defeat. Now there's a crack in the ward that held it out for nearly two centuries, and it's about to overcome that magical bond the way that water finds every weakness in old stone.

Then a vampire with knowledge that predates the nation appears like the swell of ocean waves in the hours before a hurricane.

She's not here with a warning. Warning implies time. She's here because the bloodlines connecting all nine lineages are waking up. And like it or not, if the Sisters can't hold the line, there won't be anything left worth protecting. Not the plantation. Not the city. Not the lights strung through the oaks that glow at dusk like something holy.

The competition finale is in three days.

And the ancient power yearning to break free isn't going to wait for the credits to roll.
