The Nurse and The Hot Cop
Archer Gray
Being the new officer on the Laurel Springs Police Department has been a blessing. They’ve treated me like family since the moment I started my first shift. It’s what I’ve wanted since I left home at eighteen. Life is going amazing, especially when I meet Alisa, a nurse at Laurel Springs Medical. She’s saucy, but I suspect it hides a vulnerability not many get to see.
I want to see it, want to know everything about her. In a moment where she desperately needs someone, I’m there for her.
And I won’t leave until she asks me to.
Alisa Hilligan
I’ve always been a transplant, searching for a home. I thought I found it in Calvert City, instead it’s the neighboring town Laurel Springs.
Since I’ve been here I’ve met the new hot cop, Archer. He makes me want everything I shouldn’t.
But when the reason I left Calvert City comes back with a vengeance; I’ll need him more than I ever thought.
And he’ll prove he’s here for the long haul – something no one else ever has.
Laramie Briscoe is the best-selling author of the Heaven Hill Series & the Rockin’ Country Series.

She’s appeared on the Top 100 Bestselling E-books Lists on iBooks, Amazon Kindle, Kobo, and Barnes & Noble. She’s been called “a very young Maya Banks” (Amazon reviewer) and her books have been accused of being “sexy, family-oriented, romances with heart”.
When she’s not writing alpha males who seriously love their women, she loves spending time with friends, reading, and marathoning shows on her DVR. Married to her high school sweetheart, Laramie lives in Bowling Green, KY with her husband (the Travel Coordinator) and a sometimes crazy cat named Beau.
I’m the guy the entire team loves to hate. Not only am I one of the Sockeyes’ best players, but I make sure everyone knows it. No woman has ever held my heart until I meet Tia. She’s everything I am, gorgeous, rude, arrogant with a capital ‘TUDE, and we’re both concealing soul-shattering pain. Together we’re fire and ice, a combo I can’t resist and one that has me worried I’ve finally succumbed to the worst four-letter word in the English language–LOVE.
TIA:
After my mother’s tragic death, I’ve lashed out and driven away everyone who ever cared about me. The pain is so great, I feel I don’t deserve friendship or love. Along comes Bryce. We’re kindred spirits. He’s as damaged as I am. Out of our grief, something special begins to sprout, but our tendency to destroy anything good in our lives threatens the best thing that’s ever happened to us. Only Bryce refuses to give up while I’m finding old habits die hard. Barricading my heart is easier than taking the risk of being hurt again.

Title: Tell Me A Story Authors: Kaylee Ryan & Lacey Black
Genre: Contemporary Romance Release Date: October 4, 2022
BLURB
Joey
I don’t want to be someone’s dirty little secret. I know all too well what that feels like.
Guarding my heart means staying out of pro football player Brock Williams’s bed and out of the spotlight. But after all these years, he’s exactly like I remember, charming, determined, and used to getting what he wants. And what he wants now is me.
The chemistry between us is undeniable. And the guy I always saw as a player is now the one who makes my heart beat fast—the one who leaves dirty love notes on my pillow.
Oh, yeah… he also happens to be my brother’s best friend.
Brock
Hooking up with Joey is a bad idea, but that’s not going to stop me.
I remember the first time we met. Joey showed up at campus to visit her brother, and when she came walking out in that little yellow bikini, I stopped seeing her as my best friend’s little sister and saw her as someone I desired but could never have. It turns out I was wrong.
For now, it’s stolen moments and promises on paper… of all the things I’m going to do once I make her mine. Her brother might not forgive me, but she’s worth the risk. I can’t deny myself any longer.
I’m tired of sitting on the sidelines. It’s time to execute the play and show Joey how our story ends.

I’ve gone from crushing on my brother’s best friend to wanting to crush him.
Cameron Baker and I have a few things in common. The first being that we were both born and raised in our small Alaskan town. Second, is that we hide our feelings and keep our hearts closed off from anyone who could break them.
But hiding my feelings is harder to do with Cam than most. When I was five years old, grieving the loss of my mother, he showed me how big his heart is, and I’ve never forgotten.
He comes from the richest family in town. Cam’s bad boy gorgeous, flirts like he has a Doctorate in charm, and he’s my brother’s best friend. That last part is where it gets tricky and the sole reason we’ve never crossed the line.
Now, his parents have cut him off to force him to prove himself. I never thought he’d open a competing business to mine. So, I do what I do best, shove all my feelings aside and ready myself to crush him. Game on.

From USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Ash comes a hate to lovers, second chance, rock star romance.
Braxton
Our senior year, I promised my girl forever.
Forever, as it turned out, wasn’t enough. She told me so in her actions. When she took a match to my life, burning it to ash.
I headed to LA with my band—Raging Chaos—like we always planned, while Kaylee went to college, taking my damaged heart with her.
This was where our story was supposed to end.
Only six years later, our lives collide again.
Kaylee is the only thing I ever loved more than music, and I wish I could hate her for it, but the line between love and hate is thin, and often straddled.
And the thing about collisions? They result in deadly debris.
Kaylee
When you love someone, you let them go. But what I did was so much worse.
Because instead of pushing him away, I shoved Braxton straight over the edge.
I’ve spent the past several years avoiding him, trying to make things right.
When my reputation has been dragged through the mud, and I’m given the opportunity to clean it up, I have no choice but to cross paths with him again.
Being around Braxton is a harsh reminder of the way I lit his life up in flames, but I’m not sure he knows I’ve been burned, too.
If suffering in silence is the cost, I’ll pay the price to make things right.
I just hope our history won’t play on repeat and he’ll see me as more than the stupid girl with the lit match.

Can I find the man threatening the woman I love before he finds her?
We’re playing a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
And I’m determined to win.
BLP REVIEW – Tracy
The Watcher is definitely my favourite book of the Men of Hidden Justice series so far!!!!!! I loved Damien & Raven.
As with other books in the series the attraction between the couple is there from the get go and things with them move fast….. but we now shouldn’t expect anything less from these guys!!!
Damien was full on but knew when to take a breath and a step back when things appeared to be getting too much for Raven. For her part, Raven didn’t want to be a hindrance and was often trying to convince Damien to walk away and save himself the hassle of being with her….. like the guys in the series before him, we know this was never gonna be an option for Mr DeSalvo..
The storyline was kinda creepy, especially given how we live so much of our lives online these days and I felt the plot was believable…. The ‘bad guy’ was really dislike-able which speaks to how well Ms Moreland writes her characters. I thought I knew where things were going with this guy but was second guessing myself a fair bit….
There was a lot going on in the story. Action, suspense, intrigue, a ton of heat and passion and that sense of brotherhood that comes across so clearly with the men from Hidden Justice.
I love that we catch up with other characters from the series in these books and I’m really looking forward to finding out how things go for Egan & Sofia in the next (and final) book of the series.
Have you read the series ? Binge on the Men of Hidden Justice

Title: Irresistible Trouble Series: Copper Valley Fireballs #4 Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Romantic Comedy Release Date: September 29, 2022
BLURB
I, Cooper Rock, baseball god, worshipper of women, hometown hero, beloved son and brother, and owner of a well-deserved ego, have always reached for the stars. Usually in baseball.
In love? Nah. When you’ve played the field as much as I have and haven’t been bit by the bug, you’re immune.
Or so I thought until she walked back into my life.
Waverly Sweet. Pop music sensation. Universally beloved for good reason. She’s freaking awesome. Kind. Funny. Talented. Sexy as hell. Real. And still completely out of my league.
But I have been hit by the Waverly Sweet tour bus of love, tumbled head over heels, and come up in a field of Waverly-scented roses. This is it. She’s my one and only, and this time, I won’t screw it up.
I’m cleaning up my reputation. I’m ignoring the doubters. I’m channeling everything I have into proving to her that I can be the man she deserves.
No matter what else I have to sacrifice for love.
Including baseball.
Irresistible Trouble is a hilarious home run 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. While this laugh-out-loud romance stands alone with a sweet-swoony HEA, you won’t go wrong if you dive into the entire Fireballs series, starting with Jock Blocked, first. And for more Cooper Rock cameos, check out Master Baker (a standalone featuring Cooper’s brother) and the Bro Code series.

When she’s not reading, writing or sleeping, she’s being crowned employee of the month as a stay-at-home mom and housewife trying to prepare her adorable demon spawn to be productive members of society, all the while fantasizing about long walks on the beach with hot chocolate chip cookies.
I’m the guy the entire team loves to hate. Not only am I one of the Sockeyes’ best players, but I make sure everyone knows it. No woman has ever held my heart until I meet Tia. She’s everything I am, gorgeous, rude, arrogant with a capital ‘TUDE, and we’re both concealing soul-shattering pain.

🎸 Silent Chaos Excerpt 🎸
“We’re playing a game,” Blondie says, oblivious to the tension Kaylee brought with her into the room. “Never Have I Ever… Heard of it?”
Kaylee’s brow furrows. “The high school game?”
“Yep,” I say, opening the bottle and pouring her a shot. “Whose turn is it?” I glance around. “You know what, I’ll go.” My eyes lock on hers. “Let’s see…” I think for a second before the perfect one comes to me. “I got it. Never have I ever…cheated on the person I claimed to love.”
“Oh, no, I’ve never done that,” one of the women says.
“Real mature, Braxton,” Kaylee hisses.
“Drink up, sweetheart.” I smirk. “Hell, maybe you should have two shots for that one.”
Kaylee throws the shot in my face and stalks out, slamming the door behind her.
“How long are you going to punish her for?” Gage asks as soon as she’s gone.
