KISSING MR MISTLETOE (APPLE RIDGE) BY ANGELA CASELLA is releasing soon.
**Spicy version**
When you kiss the one person who should be off-limits, blame it on the mistletoe.
Emily
The whole town turned on Miles after the crash that killed my boss's granddaughter. They didn't care that he hadn't been driving. Still, he brought a peace offering to the bookstore's Christmas Eve party, and my boss told him he should have been the one who died.
No one defended him. Not even me.
But I chased him outside and kissed him under the mistletoe. It started as sympathy, then turned electric. When he told me he was leaving forever, I gave him a book to help him heal.
Years later, Miles comes home with a tattoo inspired by that very book. And somehow, he knows I wrote it.
Worse, he wants to know everything else about me.
Which makes Miles Public Enemy Number One, because the life I've built here depends on keeping the truth buried.
Miles
Kissing Emily was definitely not a mistake.
Now I'm going to prove it, even if she's not my Number One Fan.
Joining her retirement home book club? You bet.
Selling Christmas trees outside her bookstore? Absolutely—and I'll even hire the punk kid she's taken under her wing.
But the closer I get to Emily, the more I realize the girl who saved me is hiding from everyone, including herself.
This Christmas, I'm determined to find out why.
Kissing Mr. Mistletoe is a small-town Christmas romcom featuring enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, a secret identity, best friend's brother, and a snowed-in romance. Expect a bookstore cat, a retirement home romance book club, festive matchmaking, and two people who help each other heal when they need it most.

A MERRY LITTLE MESS BY SAMANTHA CHASE, releases November 17th
#AudioAlert
Narrated by Sarah Welborn
Release Date: November 17, 2026
Juliet Tinsley is definitely not living her best life.
She’s lost her job, her apartment, and what little confidence she had left—and now she’s facing the ultimate going home for the holidays and admitting her overachieving family was right all along. But just when everything feels completely hopeless, her best friend offers a lifeline—house sitting for a wealthy family over Christmas. It’s the perfect temporary fix . . . a place to stay, time to regroup, and a chance to figure out what comes next.
Declan Rhodes has spent years building a life far away from his family—and exactly how they expected him to be. Burned out and running on empty, he returns home unannounced, only to find someone else living in his parents’ house. Juliet. And thanks to a very official contract, there’s absolutely nothing he can do about it.
All Declan wants is peace, quiet, and a few weeks to breathe. What he gets instead is a Christmas-obsessed whirlwind determined to turn the house into a holiday spectacle—one that’s already caught the attention of the HOA. Now, between over-the-top decorations, mounting complaints, and a very suspicious HOA president, Declan finds himself dragged into one ridiculous situation after another . . . including pretending to be Juliet’s fiancé just to keep the peace.
It’s not the Christmas either of them expected—or wanted. But somewhere between the chaos, the forced proximity, and the unexpected sparks, what started as a temporary arrangement might just turn into something worth holding on to.

A Forbidden Father's Best Friend Romance. A Marriage of Convenience Under the Mistletoe.
He was my father's best friend, until my father betrayed him. Ten years later, he walks into my life as revenge with a wedding proposal wrapped in tinsel and bad timing.
Tristan Hamilton is the silver fox billionaire lawyer my father once called a partner. He's Scrooge personified. I'm the woman who starts decorating before the leaves have finished falling, who treats every London Christmas market like sacred ground, who believes mistletoe, fairy lights, and a cup of mulled wine can fix almost anything.
He can't stand carols, cheer, or anything wrapped in tinsel.
Yet somehow, with the advent calendar counting down and my father's law firm, now my responsibility, drowning in debt, Tristan is the one man with enough money, and enough motive, to save it before my debtors close in, before Christmas Eve arrives.
The Christmas Clause: My hand in marriage. No prenup. No exit clause, ever.
The Payoff: His fortune to save my company and my family name before the holidays are over.
It's supposed to be simple. A transaction dressed up in snow and bad timing, somewhere between the fake proposal, outings to Winter Wonderland and the real wedding under a canopy of holly.
Except amid the mistletoe and the mulled wine, and a festive themed dinner on his yacht, I start wanting this marriage to be more than a deal.
Just two people trapped by a contract, thrown together for the entire festive season. His townhouse strung with fairy lights. His family's Christmas Eve lunch. His bed, snow gathering on the windowsill outside.
Then a freak snowstorm strands us overnight with nowhere to sleep but one room, one bed, one flickering fire, and a decade of tension neither of us can outrun anymore.
He thinks he can marry me under the mistletoe, ruin my father through me, and never once fall for the woman he married to do it. He's wrong.
And this Christmas, with the whole city glowing gold and the countdown to midnight running out, I intend to make him admit it.
This is Tristan Hamilton & Opal's story. There is no cheating, and a very satisfying festive-season HEA.

REVIEW: THE UNWILLING BRIDE (THE HAMILTONS #1) BY L. STEELE
#ICYMI
#NewRelease
"He’s the man who is about to teach her that the most dangerous place to be is near him." 🐆🖤
"I’m not the man for you."
The Unwilling Love (The Hamiltons) by L. Steele is HERE!
James Hamilton is a Royal Marine who has seen the darkest parts of the world, and he’s determined to keep Harper away from his shadows. But Harper isn’t looking for a perfect hero—she’s looking for him.
****
James Hamilton is the definition of off-limits. He’s cynical, jaded, and way too protective of his sister’s best friend. But when the air crackles between them, it’s clear his instincts are anything but brotherly.
READ THE EXCERPT: 📖
“He cups my cheek and lowers his head. I close my eyes, tip up my chin, and feel the warmth of his breath on my cheek, on my lips. Then just like that, it’s gone. And so is his touch.
I snap my eyes open, to find him looking at me with a tortured expression in his eyes. 'I can’t, Harper... someone who’d taint your innocence, someone who’d drag you down into the darkness with him. I’m not the man for you.'
'But what if you were?' I swallow. 'What if you were the man I was waiting for.'”
Don't miss this emotionally charged, slow-burn prequel to The Unwilling Bride!

Trying Not to Kiss You
Moran Sisters Series #3
Release: November 17, 2026
Tropes:
Friends to lovers
Mechanic
Small Town
Secret Relationship
Blue Collar
Blurb:
NYT and USA Today bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series set in a small town, surrounding four sisters. Trying Not to Kiss You is a small-town, friends-to-lovers, secret-relationship romance.
Leighton
Dixon Turner has always been a part of my life. I never thought twice about him… until now.
Volunteering to help him launch his new agricultural mechanic shop seemed harmless enough.
But I wasn’t prepared to spend every day with the guy I’ve known most of my life… and start seeing him in a way I never have before.
The quiet steadiness of him. The way he listens like he actually hears me.
Something has definitely shifted. And when the tension finally snaps, I make him an offer I really hope he doesn’t refuse.
Friends… with benefits.
I know a guy like Dixon doesn't do forever.
But I’ll take whatever he’s willing to give.
Because it’s a whole lot better than pretending there’s nothing between us… and trying not to kiss him every time he gets too close.
Dixon
Leighton was always there… the little sister who tagged along.
Looking back, I can’t remember a time she wasn’t.
But somewhere between rebuilding engines and building my business, I realize she’s all grown up.
Wanting Leighton and letting myself have her are two different things.
I’ve seen firsthand what happens when you build your world around someone and lose them.
My father never recovered, and I’ve spent years making sure that never happens to me.
Then Leighton happens.
And if I can’t bring myself to love her the way she deserves, I’ll lose her anyway.

TERMS OF BETRAYAL (KING OF SECRETS #1) BY NANA MALONE releases November 13th!
Release Date: November 13, 2026
One birthday kiss. No names. How was I supposed to know he was my new client?
Billionaire Micah Price needs a fake fiancée to repair his reputation. I’m his publicist. Apparently, that makes me available.
He bought a building to watch my flat. Now he wants me in his bed. The man is unhinged, and I’m supposed to make him look respectable.
I gave him a list of suitable women.
He wouldn’t even look. He just declared me…his.
I’d explain the difference between hiring a publicist and acquiring a wife, but he seems very pleased with himself. And I’m already wearing the ring.
Six months. That’s what I agreed to.
I did not agree to enjoy him.
But with danger at my door, I’m developing an appreciation for a man willing to be the bogeyman for anyone who tries to hurt me.
There’s just one problem.
I’ve spent my life hiding from dangerous men and now one of them has decided I’m his.

🌼Not His Baby
💍It’s Always Been You
🌼Friends to Lovers
💍Forced Proximity
Blurb:
He’s my former best friend and my husband of convenience, but he’s not the man that got me pregnant.
One year into my nursing program, two little pink lines alter my reality.
Add on that the baby’s father wants nothing to do with us and I no longer have healthcare coverage, and well?
I start to panic.
Enter Easton Buckley—Mr. Dependable, lineman with great health benefits, and a stubborn streak that pays off when he convinces me to marry him so me and my baby can be taken care of.
The problem is, Easton and I haven’t been on good terms for years, and neither of us has attempted to fix it.
Yet now I’m living with him, forced to see him shirtless, and wondering why hearing him call me his wife is making my hormones even more wild.
Then I figure out his secret.
And there’s no stopping the flood of emotions and unresolved feelings that come up.
I’m scared to fall for Easton. I don’t want him to be a mistake like every other love interest in my life.
But what if the reality is, you can’t help who your heart chooses to love? Even if they could be the one to break it once and for all?

🥃First Love / Reunion
New name. New face. Old vengeance. He’s back to steal what the Blackstones took.
Olivier
I made myself into a stranger to walk back into Blackstone Bourbon. New name, new eyes, one job left to finish.
She was my first love. First heartbreak. Being near her again brings back the best parts of us I’d made myself forget.
It changes nothing. I still can’t forget or forgive what her family did to mine.
Get in. Get what’s mine. Get out.
But I forgot how sharp she is.
That is my first mistake.
Lillianna
Months of research. A folder I can’t stop opening. A first name that’s probably nothing.
I sign the deal. Then he laughs in my lobby, and something in me stops arguing.
So I watch. I wait for the proof I don’t want.
Months later his four-year-old son hands me my answer. Olivier Sawyer is back in my family’s distillery, wearing someone else’s name.
I should throw him out. Instead, I don’t tell my brothers. Not to protect him. To protect the one thing I’ve built here that isn’t already theirs.
Keeping my enemy close should make him easier to control. It would, if my body didn’t like him close.
But I already made the mistake of wanting him when I was seventeen. I won’t get burned by the same fire twice.
Some secrets age like bourbon in the dark. The longer they sit, the higher the price when poured. They thought they knew what broke them. They were wrong.

@bellamatthews.author has revealed the gorgeous cover for The Game Changer!
Releasing January 7, 2027
Illustrator: @jasmynerica.art
Cover Designer: @booksnmoods
Falling for Kroydon University’s golden-boy quarterback wasn’t in my four-year plan. Neither was fake dating him, yet here we are.
Asher Ryan has it all. A famous last name, a future first-round draft pick, and the kind of cocky smile that makes otherwise intelligent women forget who they are. He’s rich, ridiculously gorgeous, and living the dream. I’m just not convinced it’s his dream.
Not that I have time to figure that out. What I have instead is two jobs, one scholarship hanging by a thread, and zero patience for arrogant athletes who’ve never had to worry about their futures.
He plays under the lights, and I dance on the sidelines.
We are not the same, and I’m perfectly happy to keep it that way . . .
Until one reckless night changes the game.
Now I’m fake dating Kroydon U’s most eligible bachelor. And this infuriating man is determined to prove everything I think I know about him is wrong—which would be a whole lot easier to ignore if he weren’t so good at making me forget.
But at a university where football is religion and secrets are currency, one wrong move could cost us everything.
He has a legacy to live up to.
I’ve got a future to fight for.
Neither of us can afford what happens when fake starts feeling like forever.

MY BILLIONAIRE FAKE FIANCE (BILLIONAIRES AFTER DARK: THE KHANS) BY HEIDI RICE is releasing, November 2nd!
Release Date: November 2, 2026
From USA Today bestselling author Heidi Rice comes a steamy fake engagement, marriage-of-convenience sheikh romance featuring a smart Irish virgin heroine, a royal billionaire alpha hero, forbidden attraction, arranged marriage, forced proximity, opposites attract and a happily-ever-after guaranteed.
I’m going to lose everything. My home. My livelihood. Because my family’s Kildare racing stud is about to be sold off to pay my late father’s gambling debts.
So, when billionaire playboy sheikh Prince Karim Jamal Amari Khan offers me a way out I take it… All I need do is pose as his adoring fiancée for the next little while… No problem, that’s grand, I’ve totally got this.
But for a few snags:
1). Karim’s the coldest most arrogant man I’ve ever met, but also the hottest. Confusing? Much?
2). After a disastrous engagement to a cheating gobsh*te, I’m still a virgin, so I’ve no clue how to fake ‘wanting’ Karim, when I already do!
3). Our first kiss is fire, so apparently he’s not faking it either… But we can’t follow-through because that’s absolutely NOT in the contract I signed.
4). His father dies unexpectedly, and I get whisked off to his desert kingdom where a REAL royal marriage has been arranged we can’t get out of…
After our super-hot wedding night, though, breaking Karim’s one rule is the least of my worries, because I now realise my new husband’s not cold, he’s just broken, and – far worse – I’m after believing I might be the one to fix him! Even though I already know (thanks, Da), when a woman tries to fix a man, it always ends in tears…
PS: My Billionaire Fake Fiancé is a comprehensive update/reboot of Innocent's Desert Wedding Contract.
PPS: This is also a linked book to My Billionaire Sheikh – because Karim is Zane Khan's cousin, and Zane and his wife Catherine and their kids have a cameo in Orla and Karim's story!

TEACHER'S PET (IRON CREEK K9 #3) BY ANNIE CARLISLE is releasing, November 6th!
Release Date: November 6, 2026
Nora Quinn has taught in seven towns, and she’s good at arriving—it’s staying she never learned. Then she witnesses something she shouldn’t have, and the only safe address in the county is the cottage next to Grady Mercer: widowed father, professional planner, a man whose five-year-old daughter runs the household off a laminated folder.
Nora’s classroom voice works on puppies, kindergartners, and—to everyone’s alarm—Grady.
Between a junior-handler program the whole county adopts, a little girl who documents everything in crayon, and a threat that gets too close to a school, Nora discovers the lesson she never got: home isn’t the place that lets you in. It’s the place that saves your chair.
Single dad meets sunshine-with-a-spine, a five-year-old scene-stealer, an old dog who assigns himself to her porch, and a grovel with a drawing in it that will END you. Complete HEA, tissues mandatory, no cliffhanger.

When my ex did me wrong, I didn’t get angry. I got under a gorgeous stranger… I just didn’t know he was my ex’s brother.
Conrad Goldman is a merciless billionaire; all hard muscle and sharp tailoring with a face that stops conversations mid-sentence.
He’s my delicious one-night stand from three years ago, my ex’s brother … and now my new boss.
He’s also the father of the baby he doesn’t know we have.
I’m blindsided by his crazy proposal: marry him for one year and I get a big payout.
That way he can inherit his family fortune.
We fly to Vegas, and I go from the poorhouse to the penthouse.
All I have to do is keep my distance and our daughter a secret.
Easy right?
Except for the late night in the copy room, his hands gripping my hips, all growled orders and no mercy.
My resistance has cracked. The truth is clawing its way out.
I’m supposed to survive one year as Conrad’s wife and walk away richer.
Instead, I’m falling for my husband while risking it all with one big secret:
My little two-year-old girl with his eyes …
