ONE FINE NIGHT

A SPECIAL OPS SCOTS PREQUEL

KAIT NOLAN

Release Date: June 14

As a Royal Marine, I’ve taken on countless missions, but navigating life as a civilian might be the biggest challenge of all. I need to stay focused and figure out what the hell I’m doing with this early retirement.

Then she crosses my path. A stranger on a train, she instantly captures my imagination. A beautiful, vibrant distraction I didn’t know I needed. And maybe something more…

When my charming companion faces unwanted advances, I step in, pretending to be her boyfriend. But the connection between us is too real to be an act.
What might have been only a brief encounter turns into an unforgettable night as we both find far more than we were looking for, if only we both have the courage to hold on.

RELEASE BLITZ – The Way We Touch (The Bradford Boys #1) by Tia Louise

Jun 10

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

The Way We Touch by Tia Louise is now live!

My brother’s best friend might be a cocky wide receiver with an ego the size of Texas, but I did not mean to almost kill him with a ghost pepper.

Logan Murphy should come with a warning.

He’s as hot as a Carolina Reaper on black asphalt in the middle of July.

With perfectly messy dark hair and smoldering blue eyes—and don’t even get me started on the way that black tee stretches across his toned chest…

He’s my brother’s best friend.

He’s also a football star on track to win the first wide-receiver MVP in league history.

Good thing I only date golfers… or I did.

Good thing he’s only visiting for a month, because the more I see he’s not a player, the harder it is to block him from running away with my heart.

I’ve always loved football, but after eight years pro, everything about it leaves me cold.

So when I agree to head south with my best friend, the last thing I expect is to have my face melted off by his pepper-loving little sister.

Dylan Bradford was supposed to be a kid, not a feisty pinup who looks at me like she’s never seen a man before.

She’s all curves and cutoffs, bare feet dancing in the warm summer night,

But I’m only in town a month, and she doesn’t date football players.

Then late-night talks turn to sharing past hurts and future dreams, and shy looks turn to confident kisses.

The heat between us can’t be denied.

It’s spicy and sweet, and it melts us together.

Until the way we touch becomes more than friendly—it’s forever.

(A small-town, brother’s best friend, sports romance with hilarious “accidents,” and a dirty-talking hero. No cheating. No cliffhanger. No third-act breakup.)

RELEASE BLITZ – False Start (Red Zone Rivals) by Kandi Steiner

Jun 7

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

False Start by Kandi Steiner is now live!

Kyle Robbins: Seattle’s rookie tight end and the first boy to break my heart.

Oh, did I mention he’s also my new client… and fake boyfriend?

I thought I left Kyle and our complicated past behind me, but when he saunters up as my new client at a house showing, I’m quickly reminded how much he still haunts me.

I try to walk away, but the stubborn jerk isn’t having it. In fact, he doubles down on working with me, as if our tragic history doesn’t exist at all.

The commission from working with him is the key to a new life for me and my son. It’s worth putting up with the cocky athlete long enough to find him a house. But when Kyle sees the bruises left by my darling ex-husband, he thinks he can save me—and suddenly, he’s interested in much more than just being a client.

Before I know it, I’m wrangled into a scheme so crazy it just might work. Kyle pretends to be my fake boyfriend so he can keep my ex in line until I get the commission from this house sale and get the hell out of Seattle for good.

But with a past as thick with chemistry and tension as ours is, it’s not long before those fake touches feel all too real. Every brush of his hand against my back has me spinning back to that night. Every kiss has me dizzy with the love I felt at eighteen. And every day that passes without me finding him a house has me wondering how much longer I can survive this game we’re playing.

Fake-dating each other was supposed to be for my safety.

But I can’t help thinking my heart is more at risk now than ever before.

Kandi Steiner is a #1 Amazon Bestselling Author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tennessee. Best known for writing “emotional rollercoaster” stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you’re a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she’s your gal.

An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women’s Studies.

Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.”

She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.

When Kandi isn’t writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, planning her next adventure, or pole dancing (yes, you read that right). She enjoys live music, traveling, hiking, yoga, playing with her fur babies and soaking up the sweetness of life.

RELEASE BLITZ – I Can’t Even (Carter Brothers #2) by Lani Lynn Vale

Jun 6

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Title: I Can’t Even
Series: Carter Brothers #2
Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Release Date: June 4, 2024

Genre: Romantic Suspense
Trope: Bad Girl/Good Guy

BLURB

Ellodie Cassandra Solaire made a single, solitary New Year’s resolution.

That resolution was set in stone, and she wouldn’t be breaking it, no matter what.

It was simple: Say yes to every person who asks her out on a date until she finds a boyfriend.

Easy, right?

Wrong.

She breaks that New Year’s resolution three months into the year after a guy gives her serial killer vibes.

Fast forward three months, and she’s unhappily saying yes to any man who asks.

Until one day, there she is, eating a chicken burrito waiting for traffic to clear, and he appears like a knight in shining armor.

One second, she’s counting down the seconds until the parade dissipates so she can go home, and the next, a car is flying through the air directly beside her, courtesy of a hot cop performing a PIT maneuver.

It’s during the middle of the arrest when Quaid Carter’s eyes find hers.

From that moment on, she’s lost to anyone else but him.

The only problem is that serial killer vibe she got off of her potential date a few months ago isn’t just a vibe. It’s a full-blown obsession. And the serial killer decides that she won’t be the one to get away.

Quaid Carter has different ideas, though.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy

Ellodie and Quaid were just meant to be….. but their road to getting to a happy future was not an easy one!!!!

Quaid is a policeman who is trying to catch a suspect when he first encounters Ellodie. He runs into her again at the end of a disastrous date she’s had and the third time he’s at the hospital where she’s a nurse to investigate some thefts.
Each time there’s a spark, an interest and a definite connection.
These Carter men know what and who they want and I’m enjoying watching them try to catch the women they fall for.

Ellodie made a New Year’s resolution to go on dates to see if she could find Mr Right, she signed up to a dating app but it appeared that along with catching a few Mr Definitely-Not-Rights she might have also caught the interest of Mr Stalker-possibly Serial Killer and now she’s on Quaid’s radar for more than his attraction to her,

Although there’s a lot of heat and humour in the series this book, especially towards the end, was a hard read at times. There was a lot of bad stuff that happened and while I thought I knew who the monster was, LLV did well to make me second guess myself a time or two.

I’m enjoying this series. The Carter siblings/family are entertaining, are all up in each others business but they’re a tight group who have each others backs (and that of their significant others) when things get tough.

Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Secret Pucking Unicorn

Best Friend’s Brother Fated Mates Shifter Hockey Romance

Paranormal Hockey League Book 2

By Jenny Fenshaw

What to expect:

🏒Paranormal Hockey Romcom

🏒 Best friend’s brother

🏒 fated mates

🏒 v!rgin hero

🏒 rejected by parents

🏒 mutual pining

🏒 discovering secret powers

Blurb

What do you get when a sweet-as-puck hockey-playing wolf shifter with a secret is reunited with his sister’s best friend whom he’s loved since childhood who has a secret of her own? The swoons.

Declan

All my life, I’ve done what is expected of me and been the perfect son and brother. But I’m tired of living by the rules others have for me and am ready to go after my own dreams. The first step is being the best left winger I can be on the Atlantic City Devil Birds hockey team and earning enough money to buy my dream farm. The second step is declaring my feelings and convincing my younger sister’s best friend to give me a chance to prove I’m someone she can love. She’s off working in New Zealand, so I have time to work on the first step before having to be brave enough to take the second. Until…

Miranda

I’m tired of being alone and feeling like I don’t belong anywhere. My parents are dedicated to their careers, and I rarely stay anywhere long enough to form genuine connections. I want to put down roots, be near the few friends I’ve made over the years and be part of a community. I’ve had a hopeless crush on my childhood best friend’s older brother, Declan, for years, but he’s only ever seen me as a friend. It’s time to consider looking for someone who will love me in return. When a sudden chance to work for a professional hockey team in New Jersey comes up, I jump at it without a second thought. Little did I know Declan was one of the stars until I walked into the rink. How will I be able to find someone when the only man I’ve ever wanted is front and center and focused solely on me?

Fate has a way of bringing people together. Secrets have a way of tearing them apart. Which will prevail?

Secret Pucking Unicorn is a shifter hockey romance full of humor, heart, and heat. If you want to laugh, sigh, and swoon, not necessarily in that order, with funny, sexy shifters, this is the book for you!

BLP REVIEW – Tracy

I’m first and foremost a PNR lover, though with the amount small town sports romances I’ve been devouring lately you’d maybe be hard pressed to realize that!!!!
With Secret Pucking Unicorn, Jenny Fenshaw reminded me why I love the paranormal genre and shifters in particular!
🦄 🐺 🪄

I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in The Paranormal Hockey League series and I adored Mac/Declan when he was supporting and trying to help Burke with his love life woes.
Little did I realize that our MMC would have so much more on his own plate to deal with!!!!

I loved the fact that there was more to Declan’s shifter traits than normal and the gods, how sweet was he that he knew for so long that Miranda was his mate and he gave her time and distance to get to where she needed time before he declared his feelings! He was definitely all hot cinnamon roll hero!

My heart hurt for Miranda. She just got settled into a new life that she was enjoying when it all just imploded!
Her parents, especially her mother, OMFG…. how could one woman be so cold towards her only child?!?! I hated the truths that came out but I loved the support Miranda realized she had and how that made her feel.
I have to admit that at one point I was yelling at her to think, pay attention and work out what was happening….. even when I was pretty sure I knew what was going on and that she couldn’t get it all straight in her head. I know that doesn’t make a lot of sense right now, but once you read the book it will be crystal and make all the sense!!!!! 😉😁

Mac’s sister….. oh how I wanted to smack her upside the head… she’s like a tornado and while she annoyed me a tad in SPU, when it comes to her book I think she’ll possibly be frustratingly entertaining and I’m pretty certain her bravado and bluster is pretty much a front! 🤔

This team of shifters are so much fun and they’re truly beginning to feel like a family, not just teammates. I cannot wait for more in the series (and just more in general from Jenny!!)…

For me, this is a definite 5 star read and one I’d recommend you give a go!!!!

About the Author

Jenny Fenshaw is a funny, goofy, and creative author of contemporary paranormal romantic comedies who loves daydreaming about ordinary events, making them ridiculous, and including them in her stories. A native of southern New Jersey, Jenny loves to set her stories in the area she knows so well. From the Atlantic City Boardwalk to the Pine Barrens, her stories are a love letter to her hometown just as much as they are the love story of her characters.

When she’s not writing, Jenny enjoys watching ice hockey (for research!) and reruns of Murder, She Wrote. She has been married to her cinnamon roll of a husband for thirty years and has a grown son who has the best adventures.

I do everything in my power to keep my distance, because her brother is my best friend. My family. But the pull is too strong.

RELEASE BLITZ – Sterling Streak (Sterling Falls #3) by L.B. Dunbar

Jun 6

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

STERLING STREAK by L.B. Dunbar is LIVE!

This is an all-new small-town romance with a big family, and the silver fox swoon one expects from her love over-40 romances.

What to expect:

✔️Country Music Star

✔️Baseball Player

✔️Single Dad

✔️Forced Proximity

✔️all the spice

✔️small-town romance

BLURB:

Love was a losing battle for this country music darling and a single dad, baseball star until one night brings them together and one small town sets the field for a possible winning streak.

They call me Lady Boss. Maneater. Queen. But beneath the makeup, blond wig, and glitzy costumes, I’m just a country girl who likes to sing. I don’t hate men, I’m just struggling to find a good one. I’ve learned my lesson. Fool me once, and it will never, ever happen again.

So I’m baffled when I meet Ford Sylver.

A superstar in his own right as centerfielder for the Chicago Anchors baseball team, plus a single dad to three adorable little girls, we share a moment when I save his firm backside and pretend he’s mine. Something that he can never be.

Only, when he suffers a season-changing injury and I need a place to disappear, we both end up back in Sterling Falls, where I’m suddenly and unwittingly his nanny.

There’s danger in having a wild side. I’ll try anything once. However, forced into close quarters with Ford, acting as his personal nurse, and caring for his three little ones might backfire. Because I’m staring at all I ever wanted and never thought would happen for me.

After losing at love in the past, could I finally be on a winning streak?

BLP REVIEW – Tracy

I’m loving this series!!!

We know from previous books that the Sylver kids didn’t have an easy life for the most part growing up. They’ve all dealt with this different and it’s moulded them into who they are today.

Ford reacted by doing his damndest to get out of Sterling Falls and be the best baseball player he could be. For the most part he succeeded but he kinda forgot about the people who shared that upbringing with him and who looked out for him, to the point that his personal life has now imploded and his family know nothing about it.

Cadence (Cait) also didn’t have the best family life growing up, which we kinda know from her sister Enya’s book. Her parents (her father in particular) think the worst of her while having nothing to do with her and people she trusted have let her down to the point she trusts very few people and holds her cards incredibly close to the vest. She’s got Enya but her big sisters’ life just reinforces Cait’s realization that she’s missing out on something she so desperately wants, even if she won’t admit that fully to herself.

This pair met when they both needed to escape who they were and what was going on around them. Both back in town for a family event they forged a connection that first night that only grew as the book progressed.

I adored Ford’s girls, they were such a great part of the story.
Cait, the gods I felt for her. She was harder on herself than others at times, understandably hesitant to trust due to her past, so when she put her trust in him it was heartbreaking to see that trust mishandled a few times by Ford!
While his actions and comments could be attributed to what was going on at the time I honestly wanted to shake him as I was so frustrated by his lack of thought and his reactions on occasion.

I loved watching they progress from friends to something more, the slow burn was necessary and for me added to their story. The epilogue, catching up with our last two couples and seeing the Sylver siblings continue to rebuild their relationships were all so good.
I’m really looking forward to Clay’s book.

This is a really good series that I most definitely would recommend.

RELEASE BOOST – The Copper Valley Fireballs ~ The Complete Series by Pippa Grant

Jun 6

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Title: The Copper Valley Fireballs
The Complete Series
Author: Pippa Grant

Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: May 30, 2024

BLURB

Meet the Copper Valley Fireballs, baseball’s lovable losers whose hot heroes are determined to turn this team around and resisting finding love along the way!

This box set includes four full-length romantic comedies and a bonus novella.

About the books:

Jock Blocked is a home run of a feel-good romantic comedy featuring the world’s most superstitious sports fan, baseball’s oldest virgin hero, a rogue meatball, an adorable puppy with a cussing problem, and a happily ever after more satisfying than a game-winning grand slam.

Real Fake Love is a line drive straight to the heart featuring a grumpy athlete, a jilted bride, a fake relationship, and the world’s laziest cat. It stands alone and comes complete with sibling rivalry, the world’s most awkward shower scene, and a sweetly satisfying happily ever after.

The Grumpy Player Next Door is a fun-filled enemies-to-lovers romcom featuring a ray of sunshine on a mission, an athlete who’s only grouchy around her, and an epic prank gone wrong. It stands alone and comes complete with small-town shenanigans, a goat who’s not nearly as wise as his name suggests, and proof that sometimes, love is the best kind of vengeance.

Irresistible Trouble is a hilarious grand slam of a romcom about a baseball player whose ego is catching up to him, a pop star who’s a bit of a hot mess when the cameras aren’t looking (and sometimes when they are), and the kind of family and teammates that everyone deserves… in small doses.

Have Yourself a Grumpy Little Christmas is a hit of holiday sweetness featuring a grumpy retired baseball pitcher who hates the holidays, his best friend’s little sister, and a Christmas tree mishap.

AUTHOR BIO

Pippa Grant wanted to write books, so she did. Before she became a USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling romantic comedy author, she was a young military spouse who got into writing as self-therapy. That happened around the time she discovered reading romance novels, and the two eventually merged into a career. Today, she has more than 30 knee-slapping Pippa Grant titles and nine written as Jamie Farrell. When she’s not writing romantic comedies, she’s fumbling through being a mom, wife, and mountain woman, and sometimes trying to find hobbies. Her crowning achievement? Having impeccable timing for telling stories that will make people snort beverages out of their noses. Consider yourself warned.

Hot cop with a cute baby seeks wife…

Shane

That’s the subject line of the email I send to the Wife for Hire Agency. After all, I’m desperate.

Almost two years have gone by since I broke up with my last girlfriend. Little did I know the final time we were together, a little miracle was created.

In my thirty-five years I’ve never thought about being a father, had relegated myself to not having children, but that all changed when my ex-girlfriend leaves my daughter on my front doorstep.

Before I know it, I’m emailing the agency, getting paired with a woman twelve-years my junior, and trying desperately not to act on the attraction between us. But we’re both wearing rings, and she’s changed her last name.

Will we eventually give in, or will this marriage remain in name only?
