A Wild Blooms Series Standalone
Author: LM Fox

Tropes: Forbidden/Brother’s Best Friend
Release Date: June 1, 2023

BLURB 

Tuesday

Each day I long for the forbidden.
Dreams like seeds planted in poor soil.

My future has been sown since I was young, and now the man I’ve fallen for is off-limits.
Not that he’d give me the time of day.

My brother’s best friend puts out fires by day, and ignites unfamiliar feelings by night.
How do I pluck these desires before they overtake me?

I’m choosing to stay positive. Live joyfully, like a sunflower.

If only someone like Alex could adore me as I do my faithful blossoms.

Alex

My life is nearly perfect.
Great job, hot girl, and amazing friends.
So why do I feel off?

I’m not looking for more. And if I was, the last thing I’m allowed to consider is Tuesday Palmer.

If only she hadn’t put me under a spell with her bright smile and radiant personality.

But restraint is the name of this game.
I can only look, not touch, this tempting flower.

Even if I’m dying to surrender.

EXCERPT

Alex

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. What’re you doing?“
“Getting ready for bed,” she answers matter-of-factly, still wriggling in her shirt.
“What? You sleep in the buff? Never mind. Don’t answer that.” I don’t want to know. I’ll never get that vision out of my head.
“I don’t sleep naked. But I don’t want to sleep in my bra.”
Fuck. And now I’m thinking about her tits.
“And my shirt smells like old beer.”
“Were you mixing beer and fruity drinks?” No wonder she’s a mess.
“No. Xane spilled it on me.”
Fucker.
“He offered to lick it off.” She laughs.
“I suggest you stop talking, or you’ll have to put yourself to sleep with one arm stuck in your shirt because I’m going to be busy ripping that asshole’s tongue from his face.”
A mixture of a giggle and hiccup escapes, and I quickly reach for the trashcan.
“Are you going to be sick?”
“Nope,” she says, still squirming inside her top.
I place the trashcan down and head for the closet, where some of my T-shirts remain. Returning to Tuesday’s side, I sit her up so her back is to my chest and help to free her remaining arm. “Sunny, slide your bra straps down. I’m going to slide this shirt over your head, and we can get your bra off after you’re covered.” Hell. The mere notion of taking her bra off, covered or not, has gotten me to full mast.
“Okay.” Her minty breath dances over my face.
Once Tuesday is settled, I pull back the sheets and scoot her into bed. “You sure you don’t feel sick?”
“Nope.” Hiccup. As her breaths get heavier, I grow wary about leaving her. What if she throws up during the night? She’s barely taking up any space in this queen-sized bed, so I slide in before I can contemplate what I’m doing.

RELEASE BLITZ – It Had to be You (Chances Inlet #4) by Tracy Solheim

Title: It Had to be You
Series: Chances Inlet #4
Author: Tracy Solheim

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Sports/Small Town/Nanny/Forced Proximity
Release Date: June 5, 2023

BLURB

It’s hard to keep a big secret in a small town . . .

When Paige Hollister discovers her “Mr. Right” already has a “Mrs. Right,” she swears off men forever. Even more humiliating, she suddenly finds herself labeled the other woman and out of the teaching job she loves. So Paige does what every unemployed single woman staring thirty in the face does: She hightails it to the beach. Bad luck like hers is hard to outrun, however. Her getaway is stalled when her car breaks down in a small-town chock full of meddling, nosy residents. The worst of them being the local sheriff—none other than her estranged father.

Finally on top of the golf world, Tanner Gillette is poised to show everyone he’s not just an entitled playboy coasting through tournaments on his pedigree. That is until his life is turned upside down by a little girl who shows up on his doorstep with a birth certificate inexplicably bearing his name. Complicating matters more, the kid isn’t talking. When the stress of caring for a child whose mother is AWOL gives Tanner a bad case of the yips, he’s forced to enlist help from the one person in town who can’t wait to leave.

Sticking around Chances Inlet and her father’s shiny new, über-successful family isn’t on Paige’s to-do list. Especially when she’d prefer to keep her embarrassing incident under wraps. Yet she can’t walk away from the troubled little girl. Or the sexy Australian golfer who just might make her want to take a chance on trusting her heart again.

AUTHOR BIO

USA Today bestselling author Tracy Solheim writes books with shirtless men on the cover. Some of them are actually best-sellers. The books, not the men. When she’s not writing, she’s practicing her curling. . . bottles of wine, that is. She’s been known to cook dinner but no more than two nights in a row. Most days, she’d rather be reading, which to her is just necessary research. She lives in the suburbs of Atlanta with her husband and a neurotic Labrador retriever. Her two adult children visit but not often enough. (See the note above about cooking.) Check out her romantic suspense series featuring the Men of the Secret Service–shirtless, of course!

RELEASE BLITZ – Forbidden Hearts (Whitlock Family) by Corinne Michaels

Forbidden Hearts by Corinne Michaels is now live!

First rule of being a nanny? Don’t fall for the single dad, even if he is smoking hot.

But that’s exactly what happens when grumpy small-town sheriff Asher Whitlock reluctantly hires me to take care of his daughter for the summer. Neither of us is thrilled with the arrangement, but he’s desperate for help, and I need the money for grad school this fall.

All we need to do is keep our distance and remain professional . . . turns out, that’s easier said than done.

Instead of focusing on my future, all I see is the strong jawline, crystal-blue eyes, and rock-hard body right in front of me. We try to resist each other, but we end up crossing every line until I’m in his bed.

I tell myself it’s just this once.

Okay, twice.

All right, every night.

But it’s got to end–he’s fourteen years older than me, with a kid and a stressful job. Have I mentioned my dad is his boss? Then there’s the past I’m trying to forget. Secrets aren’t easy to keep and mine are getting too big to hide.

Walking away is never simple but when I do, I can’t look back.

Even if it means leaving behind the man I was never meant to love.

Blurb:

Looking for a Fake Fiancé

Have you ever wanted to prove someone wrong so badly that you could taste it?

It doesn’t matter if they’re right. The fact that they had the audacity to say it is what counts.

Hi. It’s me. I’m that person.

The man I’ve been casually seeing told me I’m not “wife material” and should “lower my expectations”. Didn’t he realize I lowered them the moment I met him for dinner?

Obviously not.

Am I petty? Maybe. Annoyed? Of course. Determined? Definitely.

I need someone to help me flaunt my new engagement—my fiancé couldn’t wait to pop the question because I’m that amazing—in his face.

The problem? I don’t have a boyfriend, let alone a husband-to-be.

Which brings us to you.

Are you handsome? Successful? A smooth talker extraordinaire?

Are you willing to do all the things that someone madly in love would do?

Putting your hand on the small of my back. Forehead kissing. Acting like I’m a treasure you can’t live without. I need you to be prepared to do all those things … and maybe more.

What do you get out of this? I’m willing to negotiate terms—especially if they include a job and a place to stay. It’s a long story. 

One night. One event. Let’s put on one heck of a show.

From USA Today and Amazon Charts Bestselling author comes a “hot and hilarious!” fake-dating tale between two frenemies that turn into roommates, coworkers, and, ultimately, lovers. Fans of close proximity, one-bed trope, and blue-collar, small-town heroes will fall madly in love with this story.

About the Author:

USA Today Bestselling author, Adriana Locke, writes contemporary romances about the two things she knows best—big families and small towns. Her stories are about ordinary people finding extraordinary love with the perfect combination of heart, heat, and humor.

She loves connecting with readers, fall weather, football, reading alpha heroes, everything pumpkin, and pretending to garden.

Hailing from a tiny town in the Midwest, Adriana spends her free time with her high school sweetheart (who she married over twenty-five years ago) and their four sons (who truly are her best work). Her kitchen may be a perpetual disaster, and if all else fails, there is always pizza.

NEW RELEASE – Unscripted with Mila ( Vested Interest: ABC Corp Book 6) by Melanie Moreland

From NYT Best Selling Author Melanie Moreland comes a story of finding love, acceptance and happiness when you least expect it!

Paperback 📗https://geni.us/UWMpaperback

🎬 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗢𝗢𝗞 🎬

Mila Morrison prefers the silent company of her keyboard to that of people. She lives vicariously through the characters she creates.

Nicholas Scott only feels comfortable when he’s playing the role of someone else. He would rather be anyone but himself.

Both of them are hiding, too afraid to let anyone in.

Their attraction is unscripted, as is the bond that forms between them.

When the world around them threatens to tear them apart, are they strong enough to make the final scene?

Or will their affair end up on the cutting room floor?

BLP REVIEW

Mila, she was everything and more that you’d expect from the youngest daughter of Van & Liv. Nicholas, now he was more than I expected….. 🥰🥰
A really great story, with issues relevant to todays society, people’s attitudes and assumptions.

Well, talk about a meet-cute. I loved their initial interactions. To be honest, st first I though Nicholas was gonna be a real pita with a hellish attitude and wasn’t sure I was gonna like him but seeing him through Mila’s eyes let me see the different facets of him that no one else seemed to catch and I warmed to him fairly quickly.

I think everyone now has either experienced some kind of mental health issue or knows someone who has and we know that everyone is different and his they deal with their issues is also very different.

I hated how Nic had to hide who he was. The extent some people were happy to go to and the unsavory reputation they were happy to foist on him to keep the public from learning the truth was heartbreaking and so bloody wrong.
I had some suspicions about his agent and they came to pass but hell, while they dealt with things and came out the other side I wanted certain folk taken more to task – spiteful, yeah maybe, but they would have deserved it.

Mila. I adored her. So different from her siblings, she was still unsure of her place and worth regardless of what was said to her and how those important to get tried to show her.
Our leading lady was used to those out with family not really ‘seeing her’ and not valuing what a special person she was. Nic saw who she really was – and understood that she was aware he was so much more than his perceived persona that was fed to the media. Once this pair got on the same page they were each what the other needed.

There was a little angst, a lot of family interactions (some of which really made me laugh…) as we’d expect with the BAM gang as well as a lot of heart and heat.

Melanie dealt really well with both Mila’s health condition and Nic’s mental health struggles. I felt the issues were dealt with care, compassion and respect.

So sad that this is the last book in the series BUT I hoping like mad that it’s not the last we see of the BAM men, their wives, families and friends.

BLURB:

The road less traveled by a sexy silver fox and a restless woman might be the path they need to restore both their hearts.

Lindee Fox

My entire adult life has been a road trip, and I’m ready to put the brakes on the wanderlust in my veins. So, I bought a motel. The irony isn’t lost on me.

What I hadn’t anticipated was a little clause in the contract, stating I must use a specific construction company for renovations.  A business owned by a man who gave me one toe-curling, thigh-clenching, soul-defining night that came with a huge dose of reality the following morning. 

I wanted to erase him from my memory, but that has not been easy. And seeing him once again because I’m his new boss, well, I can’t decide if I want to kiss him or fire him.

Leaning toward firing him. 

Maybe.

Thaddeus Rhode

My forty-five years have been full of reckless twists and turns. Former motorcycle man. Newly divorced single dad.

The one direction I never expected was a glance back at the woman who crashed into my life. Hadn’t planned on that single, incredible night. Hadn’t foreseen a big misunderstanding the next day. 

After everything that happened, I never thought I’d see her again. But I hoped I would. She rejuvenated my road-weary soul and been impossible to forget. When fate crosses our paths a second time, I had decisions to make.

I wasn’t giving up this job.

I wasn’t leaving this town.

Walking away from her?

Definitely not happening again.

 
**NOTE** The Fox sisters (Road Trips & Romance) are the siblings of Garrett Fox from Wine&Dine, an original sexy silver fox.

RELEASE BLITZ- Meant for You (Valentine Bay #2) by Samantha Leigh

Title: Meant for You
Series: Valentine Bay #2
Author: Samantha Leigh

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Small Town/Enemies to Lovers
Release Date: June 1, 2023

BLURB

He’s my ex’s best friend. The man I love to hate. A total temptation who is totally off-limits.

And he’s everywhere I turn.


My life’s a disaster. My ex-boyfriend is getting married, my house is falling apart, and I haven’t slept with anyone in… Well, long enough that I’m not sure I remember where everything is supposed to go.

The last person I’d ever ask for help is my childhood enemy, Logan Reeve. He’s smug. He’s infuriating. He’s gorgeous. And lately, he’s caught me in one too many weak moments. A cocky carpenter who knows how to work a sledgehammer, Logan promises he can renovate my house before my parents sell it out from under me.

I can’t deny it. Logan’s got the skills I need to turn things around—in life and in the bedroom.

I’m craving some old-fashioned action, and Logan is always—irritatingly—there. As the tension takes us dangerously close to a line we shouldn’t cross, we find ourselves flirting with forbidden territory. Flirting, flirting… until finally, we fall.

Why does it feel so good when it’s so, so bad?

It won’t last. Nobody can ever know.There’s nothing real between us, right? Logan Reeve was never meant for me.

But one thing I know for sure. The man I can’t have loves nothing more than proving me wrong.

Meant For You is a first-person, dual POV contemporary romance with lots of steam and a satisfying happily ever after.

AUTHOR BIO

Samantha Leigh is the author of steamy small town romance. Her first series is set in a fictional beach-side town called Valentine Bay, and because she’s the writer and it’s within her power to do so, she filled the Bay with a disproportionate number of divine, dirty-talking surfers. It’s a hard job, but someone’s got to do it.

In the tiny slices of time she has between all the word wrangling, Sam likes to hit her yoga mat, go for walks in the bush or on the beach, continue her search for the perfect poke bowl, drown herself in coffee and hot cacao, and binge-watch bad television.

My brother’s best friend puts out fires by day, and ignites unfamiliar feelings by night.

I’m not looking for more. And if I was, the last thing I’m allowed to consider is Tuesday Palmer.

If only she hadn’t put me under a spell with her bright smile and radiant personality.

But restraint is the name of this game.
I can only look, not touch, this tempting flower.

EXCERPT

Alex

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. What’re you doing?“
“Getting ready for bed,” she answers matter-of-factly, still wriggling in her shirt.
“What? You sleep in the buff? Never mind. Don’t answer that.” I don’t want to know. I’ll never get that vision out of my head.
“I don’t sleep naked. But I don’t want to sleep in my bra.”
Fuck. And now I’m thinking about her tits.
“And my shirt smells like old beer.”
“Were you mixing beer and fruity drinks?” No wonder she’s a mess.
“No. Xane spilled it on me.”
Fucker.
“He offered to lick it off.” She laughs.
“I suggest you stop talking, or you’ll have to put yourself to sleep with one arm stuck in your shirt because I’m going to be busy ripping that asshole’s tongue from his face.”
A mixture of a giggle and hiccup escapes, and I quickly reach for the trashcan.
“Are you going to be sick?”
“Nope,” she says, still squirming inside her top.
I place the trashcan down and head for the closet, where some of my T-shirts remain. Returning to Tuesday’s side, I sit her up so her back is to my chest and help to free her remaining arm. “Sunny, slide your bra straps down. I’m going to slide this shirt over your head, and we can get your bra off after you’re covered.” Hell. The mere notion of taking her bra off, covered or not, has gotten me to full mast.
“Okay.” Her minty breath dances over my face.
Once Tuesday is settled, I pull back the sheets and scoot her into bed. “You sure you don’t feel sick?”
“Nope.” Hiccup. As her breaths get heavier, I grow wary about leaving her. What if she throws up during the night? She’s barely taking up any space in this queen-sized bed, so I slide in before I can contemplate what I’m doing.

Her main characters are typically in the medical field, EMS, fire, and/or law enforcement. She enjoys writing angsty, contemporary romance starring headstrong, independent heroines you can’t help but love and the hot alpha men who fall hard for them.

BLURB

My brother’s fiancée should have been mine.

Now, I know what you’re thinking, and it’s not quite as bad as it sounds. Linc was running late for their first date and he begged me to stand in until he could get there.

I only went to tell the girl to run. To warn her about my brother’s selfish ways and promise she wanted no part of it.

But then I saw her. The stunning woman with auburn hair, sky blue eyes, and freckles I wanted to memorize.

The hour I spent with Audrey was hands down the best date of my life. Until my brother showed up.

Now, I’m covering his butt again. This time at their wedding rehearsal, because Linc hasn’t learned a damn thing. Work still comes first and that says a lot, doesn’t it?

So, sure… I’ll hold Audrey’s hand at the altar. And I’ll look into her eyes and wish like hell she would realize she deserves so much more.

I should have told her to run that night two and half years ago. Because all I want to do now is what I wasn’t bold enough to do then…

Steal her away for myself.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy

This is the first book by Molly McLain that I’ve read and I thoroughly enjoyed both the story and her writing style.

Going into the read I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect but the story was a delight!!

Liam and Audrey are fabulous friends, even though Liam felt something when he initially met her, she was supposed to be meeting his brother and our leading man was respectful and didn’t try to dissuade her from meeting Linc, didn’t let his attraction be known and was ready to watch her marry his brother if that’s what she wanted.

I have to say that Liam was a much better partner for Audrey than his brother ever was. I did wonder if there was an element of Linc continuing to date Audrey, even going as far as proposing, because he suspected how his younger brother felt?! 🤷🏼‍♀️

When things went wrong Liam was there for Audrey and slowly she began to see what she had had in front of her for the past few years. We saw Audrey’s life growing up and got an understanding of why she put up with things with Linc for as long as she did.

I loved how sweet, caring and protective of her Liam was. How much he knew about her, understood her and was prepared to be patient until she got to the same place he’d been for a while.

Throughout the story there was a couple of things going on and hints dropped about the next couple or two.

This was a great start to what I’m sure is gonna be a fun series!!!

RELEASE BLITZ – Babymoon or Bust by Ava Hunter

One bump. Two strangers. Three days to fall in love.

Babymoon or Bust by Ava Hunter is now live!

Tessie Truelove has spent her entire life avoiding. . .well, true love. And why wouldn’t she? Her dog ran off, her father left to go get cigarettes and never came back, and her mother passed away years ago. Instead, Tessie, a celebrity interior designer, clings to her to-do lists and her Pantone colors and her toxic job to avoid more heartbreak.

But after too much whiskey and a wild night with a rugged stranger has her seeing two little pink lines, she vows to do motherhood all by herself. After all, it might be her one shot at true love.

Nothing will interrupt her plans. Not even Solomon Wilder—her muscled, bearded, brooding baby daddy—who stomps his way into her perfectly planned babymoon after learning about her pregnancy.

Stuck together in paradise, the two strike a deal: spend three days together to figure out how to raise their son.

Complete opposites, they have nothing in common except the bump between them. Tessie has her glamorous career in LA, and Solomon has his wild life in Alaska. Yet as the babymoon takes a turn for the steamy and Solomon breaks through the emotional walls Tessie’s spent years guarding, she starts to wonder if she and this gruff, flannel-wearing mountain man might be meant to do more than just share a baby—they might be meant to share a heart.

Meet Ava

Ava Hunter is a strong believer in black coffee, red wine, and the there’s-only-one-bed trope. She writes contemporary romance with healthy amounts of angst where the damsels are never quite damsels, but the men they love (good, bad and rugged) are always there for them. Her first series, Nashville Star, centers on sexy country singers and their honky-tonk drama-filled lives.

Ava is married to her high school sweetheart, loves writing strong, stubborn women that only make their men fall harder, adores all things pink, and can never ever get enough of protector romance.
