RELEASE BLAST – Only A Secret (Kasper Ridge #3) by Delaney Stewart
ONLY A SECRET
Delancey Stewart
Release Date: September 26
My life is over. At least my life as a child actress. Because guess what? I haven’t been a child for years, but no one seems able to forget the curly haired little girl I was on that insipid sitcom.
So when my best friend from high school invites me to the tiny mountain town where she’s settled to attend the opening of some fancy new ski resort? I go, hoping maybe in nowheresville, Colorado, no one will remember who I used to be.
And when I meet the handsome and broody Harrison Ketcher, I think I’ve gotten my wish.
They call him “Brainiac” so it’s no surprise he never watched the show. He was too busy memorizing physics books, I guess. He’s a former fighter pilot slash engineering professor on sabbatical in Kasper Ridge, and despite being a few years older than the guys I usually date, there’s something irresistible about him.
Maybe it’s that he has no idea who I am. Maybe it’s those steely blue eyes. Maybe it’s the feeling that I’m the only person in the world who makes him laugh in that low, sexy way.
But the closer I get to Harrison, the more certain I am that I’m not the only one keeping secrets. He doesn’t know who I am… but do I really know who he is?

Meet Delancey Stewart:
Hi there!
I’m USA Today Bestselling author Delancey Stewart. My contemporary romances run the gamut of settings and setups, but they always deliver humor, heart and heat. It’s a guarantee.
I write from my home near Denver, CO, where I manage a household full of boys and men. Okay, only one man. The hubs. But two boys. I mean, three if you count the hubs. (You see why I do words and not numbers. I was told there’d be no math in this bio. Someone lied.) There is also a dog named Charlie Taco.
I grew up in California and have had more jobs than anyone on earth (personal trainer, pharmaceutical rep, copywriter, tech writer, marketing director, wine seller, elementary school teacher… I’m not kidding. The list. It goes on.) But the one I love the most is writing, in part because I get to meet people who love books and stories as much as I do!

RELEASE BLAST – Stirred Up by a Seal (Bad Boy Bakers #3) by Kait Nolan
STIRRED UP BY A SEAL
BAD BOY BAKERS – BOOK 3
Kait Nolan
Release Date: August 5
Can a SEAL without a mission and a widowed baker help each other learn to live again?
Jonah Ferguson never wanted to be anything but a Navy SEAL. But after an injury sidelines his military career, he finds himself back home in small-town Tennessee. Opening a bakery with his best friends and daring to re-imagine his life is a whole new mission, but his biggest challenge yet is sticking to the friend zone with the woman who helped give him new purpose.
Two years after losing her husband to a traumatic brain injury, baker Rachel McCleary needs a change. With the proceeds from the sale of her business, she’s exploring what a new life would look like. For the short-term, it means helping one of her former students make his fledgling business thrive. And hopefully adding some benefits to the friendship that helped bring her back to life.
All Rachel wants is temporary, and that’s the one thing Jonah can give her. But when the trouble that’s stalked his business from the start lands her in its crosshairs–and the hospital–he can’t deny that there’s nothing short-term about his feelings. Determined to protect her at all costs, he enters into a dangerous race to neutralize the threat before it torpedoes everything he holds dear.

BLP REVIEW -Tracy
I’ve got the other books in the series but haven’t got to read them yet….. so went into this one not knowing anything about Jonah, Rachel or the other Bad Boy Bakers, but even though this is the last book and things were pretty much cleared up, I’m definitely going back to read Braxton and Holt’s books…
My heart hurt or them both.
Jonah was so lost about how his life might pan out that he couldn’t believe that he deserved the relationship and happiness that his friends had found. Honest to the gods, he frustrated me a fair bit…. he was so protective and felt so much for Rachel but kept denying himself, and her, real hope at a future together….
Rachel was trying to work out who she was now that she was on her own. A change of location, being with Jonah – even for a limited time – helping the guys with the bakery and having the chance to be ‘Rachel’ without everyone knowing the sad truth about her life all helped her start to see where she wanted her life to go.
I was glad when Jonah finally got his head in the game…. i just wasn’t sure whether he’d left it too late or not!
I really liked the other characters and am looking forward to reading about them and finding out how the other couples got together.

BOOK BLITZ – Bewitched by a Vampire (Eternal Mates #21) by Felicity Heaton
Bewitched by a Vampire
(Eternal Mates, #21)
Felicity Heaton
Publication date: June 14th 2022
Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance
An important undercover mission for her coven could get Lilian killed. Targeting one powerful vampire is dangerous enough, but when she’s left with his lethally seductive brother, Night, the stakes have never felt higher.
Night Van der Garde is in no mood to visit his uptight eldest brother, so when he finds Bastian flying out of his mansion door, the evening is looking up… until Bastian orders him to spend the week looking after a human—a bewitching female who rouses a fierce hunger that has him treading the fine line between duty and desire.
When a new threat to his bloodline emerges and secrets about Lilian are revealed, will Night choose to follow his heart or listen to the ghosts of his dark past?
EXCERPT:
Lilian smiled victoriously, anger flowing from her in palpable waves that rocked him as much as her words had, but there was hurt and fear laced within it.
“You didn’t know your brother was into taking humans against their will?” she barked and he held his tongue, not wanting to damn his brother, even when the proof of Bastian’s crime was right before him. She shook her head, causing the glossy dark waves of her hair to brush across the shoulders of her plain black dress. “I can see it, Night. You didn’t know. If you had—”
“It’s none of my business,” he growled and turned to leave.
Her hand on his arm stopped him.
Despite the sleeve of his jacket and his shirt that separated them, his skin burned where she held him, the thrill of her touch ripping at his fragile control and flooding him with a need to turn and gather her into his arms.
His bloodlust rose, pushing to the fore as his focus narrowed to the point where she gripped him, to how close she was behind him. He dragged down a sharp breath, catching her scent. A torment. His face twisted as he screwed his eyes shut, trying to shut out the urges running rampant through him, denying the one that pushed to the front, shoving all the others aside.
It wouldn’t be wrong of him to kiss her.
Bastian didn’t have any claim on her. She didn’t want to belong to his brother. Would she want to belong to him?
Not in the way Bastian had wanted to claim her, but in another way.
He swallowed hard and fought back against his feelings, refusing to let them control him. It was lust. That was all. Lilian was beautiful and spirited, and he wanted to break her and claim her as his prize. It was just another hunt.
So why did it feel as if his entire life hinged on the next few seconds?
BLP REVIEW – Tracy
One of the things I loved about Bewitched by a Vampire was that we were back a bit in the Eternal Mates series timeline and found out more about one of our past favourites family!! BbaV is set around the same time as Haunted by the King of Death, Grave van Der Gardes’s book.
It was so hard not to like Lilian, even though she’s got so so many secrets, she’s at Night’s brothers home under false pretences and she’s hiding what she is!!!
Through the story I felt so much for her as we discover the duplicity behind her ‘mission’ and the depth of deceit she’s unaware of!!
Night, well, he came in as arrogant as any vampire can be…. and had an issue being left babysitting Lilian on his brother Bastian’s behalf. We discover that a lot of his attitude came from his reaction to her and her ‘relationship’ to his brother.
The gods, my heart was aching for Night as the story progressed… let’s face it, he had secrets of his own but they were eclipsed by everything he discovered about Lilian and the events that then unfolded.
I LOVED that we ran into some of my favourites from other books in the EM world and from another series from Felicity. 😉
Night & Lilian had so many things to overcome to ever have a chance together. There were unknown foes but some unexpected allies and this added to the suspense in the story. BbaV was action packed, full of twists and turns, heartache, feels (I went through a hellish amount of emotions reading) and scorching heat between our MCs.
This may be Book 21 in the series but Ms Heaton never lowers the bar. The books are always exciting and engaging. I’m looking forward to much, much more in the Eternal Mates world!!!
