Title: Fatal Obsession
A Twisted Romeo & Juliet Story
Series: Tales of Obsession #2
Author: Drethi A.

Genre: Dark Romance
Tropes: Forbidden/Forced Proximity Romance
Release Date: January 6, 2024

BLURB

This is a dark Romeo & Juliet retelling with a whodunit twist and a HEA. Damon is a morally ambiguous anti-hero, willing to do anything to keep his girl.

I was groomed to hate Damon Maxwell, but he insisted I was destined to become his.

One night with a masked stranger turned my world upside down. What should have been an anonymous experience ended with me facing off against my family’s nemesis.

His name is Damon Maxwell, the charismatic CEO and a beloved philanthropist. The world chants his name, but he is the last man who should’ve caught my attention. My family is convinced Damon is connected to my cousin’s murder and that darkness lingers behind his charming facade. However, Damon claims I am his destiny and refuses to leave me alone.

Desperate to uncover the truth, I play with fire by spending time with him. As his obsession grows, he is determined to burn anything to stand between us to the ground. The closer we become, I am plagued with more questions than answers.

Is he truly the golden boy as painted by the public?
Or is he a villain who has trapped me in his web of seduction?

Author’s note: Damon isn’t a normal romance hero and, in fact, shouldn’t be considered a hero at all.

This dark book isn’t a fairy tale or romance. There is no Prince Charming, only an irredeemable villain and the object of his desire. His OBSESSION.

I felt his eyes on me everywhere I went.
I recognized his smell lingering within my home.
I even sensed his presence in my sleep.
It was too late by the time I found the monster hiding under my bed. He had wedged himself into my life, cornering me with nowhere to run.

The worst part?
The world adored him, but no one knew the devil lurking underneath the beautiful mask—no one except for me.

Manipulative, cold, and remorseless, Axel Trimalchio was a certified psychopath hiding in plain sight. He was fixated on me and would never stop chasing me.
He was determined to make me his… even though I already belonged to someone else.

Why strive for perfection, when love is anything but?

Kelsey

I thought I had it all figured out. I finally decided on a career and was making it work. Or so I thought. Until I messed up. Again.

Now, I have one final chance to make my dream of being a wedding planner a success – Plan my cousin’s wedding to her billionaire quarterback fiance.

But there is just one problem, Jason Collins. The stubborn, infuriatingly frustrating, and impossible-to-resist brother of the groom. My complete opposite.

Apparently, in the small town of Brightwood, where the wedding will be held, it’s Jason who is in charge.

In charge of the landscaping company, in charge of the wedding design, and in charge of me.

Or so he thinks…

This is it. My make it or break it moment. And I won’t let anyone get in my way.

COVER REVEAL – The Billionaire is Back (Beacon Harbor #1) by Kayley Loring & Connor Crais

Jan 5

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Title: The Billionaire is Back

Series: Beacon Harbor #1

Authors: Kayley Loring & Connor Crais

Genres: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Small Town/Billionaire/Brother’s Best Friend
Cover Design: Kari March Designs
Release Date: January 25, 2024

BLURB

People in this small town are whispering…

What they’re saying is that the billionaire is back and he’s going after his best friend’s sister.

What I’m trying to do is help Claire Sweeney’s bakery business.

What I haven’t been able to admit to myself is that in all this time, no matter how hard I tried, I never forgot her.

Now she’s all grown up. I can’t stop thinking about her muffin. Or how guilty I feel when I fantasize about buttering it.

Claire has always been as much a part of Beacon Harbor as the hanging flower baskets, the boat tours, and the lobster races. She has no idea how beautiful I think she is. Even when she has flour on her face. Even when she’s rolling her eyes at me.

I’ve got her brother’s approval, but now it’s Claire that I really have to convince.

She doesn’t believe we have the right ingredients for a real relationship—so she only agrees to pretend to be my girlfriend to help me close a deal in New York.

I believe she’s about to discover exactly how I roll when I know what I want.

And what I want is her.

COVER REVEAL – Abel (Broken Falls, #2) by Laramie Briscoe

Jan 5

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Check out the cover for Abel (Broken Falls, #2) by Laramie Briscoe

Releasing on March 15, 2024

A year worth of flirting comes down to this kiss…

Abel

I’ve eaten more tacos the past year than I have my entire life. It’s not because I love those little handfuls of goodness (although I do). It’s because of the woman who runs the local food truck Let’s Taco Bout It. Seeing her makes my day, and while I can’t admit my feelings, I can at least see her smile.

Until Halloween. When a man gives her attention she doesn’t want, she pretends we’re together, and lays a kiss on me that I’ll never forget.

Kara

I’ve spent the last year watching the hottie in the constantly torn and dirty jeans eating shyly walking up to my food truck and ordering the same thing each time. I’ve done my best to drag him out of his shell, but nothing works until a night of unwanted attention forces me to make a move.

Now? He’s hanging around even more, and when his husky voice calls me his girlfriend? I melt into a puddle, and he’s the only one who can pick me up and put me back together again.

Abel is book two in The Broken Falls Series: a series of interconnected standalones following a group of friends who have become family in small-town West Virginia, and the women who bring them to their knees. You do not have to read them in order, but each book builds upon the relationships of the last.
