HAPPY BOOK WEEK


THIS MAGICAL CHRISTMAS IS ANYTHING BUT NORMAL!
A Wonky Witching Christmas in July by Lia Davis and L.A. Boruff is now live everywhere!!!





Ava Walker, Mom, Grandma, adopted mom, finds herself juggling more than just her magical responsibilities. When tasked with planning a last-minute town Christmas in July event, things take a mysterious turn as Olivia, the hired band Pentagram, and even Luci and Lucy, vanish into thin air at different times for seemingly different reasons.

As if that weren't enough, Imogene continues exhibiting powers that defy explanation.

Determined to unravel the mystical mayhem and reunite with her missing loved ones, Ava enlists the help of Drew’s sister Lily, who brings her new friend Gil.

The search for Ava’s missing friends and feline companions leads Ava to an unexpected resolution at a mystical location in Scotland, where magical secrets are unveiled, and the ties of friendship and family are strengthened… until she gets back home for the town party and Baby Butt causes some unexpected chaos.

BOOK BUZZ (DEALS, REVEALS AND NEW/UPCOMING RELEASES FOR FRIDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2023)





PREORDER ALERT




Cowboy's Christmas Hope by Clara Pines releases on January 2nd!

FREE with Kindle Unlimited


The only thing the country boy and the city girl have in common is that they both think they’ve sworn off dating…

Jacob Cassidy is a good man with a streak of mischief a mile wide. He’s generous, smart, and the guy in small town Trinity Falls most everyone comes to with animal troubles. Unfortunately, his family has deemed him “hopeless” because he’ll never get serious about a woman.

But when the house next to Cassidy Farm sells to a beautiful girl and her lively young son just before the holidays, Jacob finds himself helplessly fascinated with the pair.

Hope Turner has sworn off men. Her beauty has won her nothing but unwanted attention from guys, coldness from other women, and a terrible marriage to a man who loved her face but not her heart. The light of her life is her funny, kind-hearted son, Nick, who longs for the freedom of wide-open spaces they just can’t find in the city. So, when her husband divorces her and remarries, she and her beloved boy finally move out to the country to live the simple life introverted Hope has always craved – just the two of them.

But when her new job behind the scenes at the local radio station turns into something far more public, Hope may just have to rely on the kindness of the too-handsome cowboy next door.

Jacob finds that he’s excited to help out, especially if it means more time with his new six-year-old bestie and his soft-spoken mom. Suddenly, he and Nick are having the time of their lives doing fun home projects and making excessive plans for Christmas.

But can Jacob get Hope’s heart back in the saddle?

And when all is said and done, is the happiest bachelor in Trinity Falls even ready to win the love of the shy city girl?

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time.

From an ex-football star finding out about a secret baby, to a reserved tech genius who opens his heart to a small-town barista and her adopted daughter, you’ll lose yourself in these feel-good books celebrating love, family, and the very special small town community of Trinity Falls.

REVIEW: COWBOY'S CHRISTMAS HOPE (TRINITY FALLS SWEET ROMANCE) BY CLARA PINES

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The haunting presence of heartache and hope light the way to heaven. Out of the shadows and through the looking glass, Pines brings the vulnerabilities of the soul into the light. Cowboy's Christmas Hope is an endearing dance with destiny. A journey of life, love and emotion that will leave you spellbound.

TEASER ALERT




Is she cut out to be the Relic Keeper?
She may not have a choice!
Combating the Siren Song by Brenda Trim is now available to preorder.





For anyone who thinks midlife is for sipping tea and taking it slow, I have terrible news. And I've only just begun to untangle the mess that fate left at my doorstep...

I've barely settled into my new supernatural midlife with another call drops in about a missing relic. And putting the finishing touches on my Sanctum will have to wait, as this is no everyday, run-of-the-mill artifact. Oh, no. This is a Siren Song, straight from the treasure trove of a Balinese clan.

And as my never-ending bad luck would have it, the Song has fallen into the hands of a clueless mundie. There are worse places to jet off to, of course. Bali is beautiful, but I can't stay long. My whirlwind chase is quickly redirected to the bustling streets of New York City. But my rollercoaster ride to secure the relic doesn't stop there. Up and down the entire east coast, I pursue the mischievous Siren Song. And the Siren Song gleefully leaves a trail of supernatural chaos in its wake.

Soon, I'm having very real doubts about my ability to be the Relic Keeper. Whatever Artemis saw in me, I can safely say I am not certain that I see in myself.

The clock is ticking louder than ever, and my cup of choice is no longer just tea. With the artifact's power swiftly growing, it won't be long before I'm out of my depth and unable to secure it. I call in reinforcements in the form of my two best friends, but I'm still not confident that we can retrieve this mesmerizing relic before it ensnares the entire nation.

Get ready for a wild magical ride filled with unexpected twists, hairpin turns, and some supernatural mayhem you simply won't believe!

MINE TO KEEP by Natasha Madison coming January 5th!

Grace
It wasn’t hard for me to walk away from my family without looking back—the time had come for me to live for myself.
New city. New job.
My new boss? He’s gorgeous.
It’s too bad that handsome face is wasted on such a condescending prick.
He hates me, and the feeling is mutual.
The only reason he may not be the literal devil is because he’s a devoted single dad, making it clear Caine is, in fact, capable of human emotion.

Caine
I’m good at two things:
1. Raising my daughter to be strong and independent.
2. My job.
When my new assistant walks into the office, I become good at ignoring her. She’s sassy. Smart. Beautiful.
Much younger and off-limits for more reasons than I can count.
That doesn’t mean I want her any less.
She hates me—but as each day goes by, it’s harder and harder to remember why I hate her too.






 REVIEW: MINE TO KEEP (SOUTHERN WEDDINGS) BY NATASHA MADISON


Mine to Keep (Southern Wedding #8)Mine to Keep by Natasha Madison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A rainbow of colors that burns wickedly bright. Out of the shadows of heartache comes tempestuous romance. Mine to Keep is breathtaking. Grace and Caine bring the fire of attraction without ever losing sight of the heart of love. Madison grabs hold of the soul with irresistible characters, unpredictable emotions and passionate stories of the heart.

NEW RELEASE

HAPPY BOOK WEEK

A sizzling, grumpy/sunshine, boy obsessed, one night stand romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann…
 
The Playboy by Marni Mann is releasing December 28, 2023!

"The heat is on and it's smothered in heart. Love too tempting to pass up." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)





Spade. People know what to expect when they hear my last name.

Billionaire. Alphahole. The forever bachelor. Heir to Spade Hotels, one of the most luxurious brands in the world.

Want to know what they would never call me?

Boyfriend.


Until her.

With one glance at her in the club, I’m ready to claim her for the night.

Dark, flowing hair. A smile that causes my heart to pound. Eyes that pierce my soul. And a perfect body that makes every part of me pulse.

She’s addictive. Electrifying. Consuming.

I’ve never wanted anyone more.

Our eyes meet, but she looks right past me. She isn’t here for me. She’s here for the music.

For the first time in my life, a woman makes me work for it. Her indifference fuels the fire inside me.

The result? One night. No names. No introductions.

Just pleasure.

The way I’ve always liked it.

But now, I find myself fantasizing about this gorgeous stranger, and I swear I can still feel the softness of her skin and taste her on my lips.

The minute I saw her, a switch flipped inside me. Now, how do I stop this raging … obsession?

When our paths cross again in the most unexpected way, I’m on a mission to make her mine. But what happens when she wants nothing to do with me?

PREORDER ALERT

UNDERCOVER AGENT (PROTECTORS UNDERCOVER TEAM ONE #1) BY HEATHER SLADE







Release Date: January 4, 2024


He’s an undercover MI6 agent looking for a lost teammate.

She’s an American doctor who’s uncovered a potentially deadly secret.

Together, can they save the world from an enemy out to destroy both of their countries?

Lynx

It was one night. A night of pure passion and desire. A night I will never forget. But she walked out, and I never stopped thinking about her. Now, she’s back. Within my reach. And again, she’s off-limits. She belongs to someone else. One of my men. Teaming up with her to take down those who threaten our freedoms seems like a perfect way to get close to her. But there’s more at stake than ever before.

Emerson

I never forgot him. He was—is—unlike any other man I’d ever known. But the timing was off; I had more happening in my life than I could handle. Now, with him right here, I can feel how much I’ve missed: His touch, his scent, his taste. Except, there’s more on the line than a love affair. We have to keep it professional. But can I do that when I need so much more from this undercover agent?


Undercover Agent was previously released in the Cocky Hero Club.

REVIEW: UNDERCOVER AGENT (PROTECTORS UNDERCOVER TEAM ONE #1) BY HEATHER SLADE

Undercover Agent (Cocky Hero Club)
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Flirting with danger has never felt so sweet. Undercover Agent pulls emotions in a number of directions. Sometimes it's hard to keep up. Heather Slade has crafted an adrenaline rush that pulls the heart along on the ride. Lynx and Emerson are a hot mess. Intriguing though that may be. When past history gets in the way of present danger, will they survive the fallout? Edge of your seat romance.
