NEW RELEASE – Won’t Back Down (Wayward Sons #1) by Harper Jackson
WON’T BACK DOWN
Wayward Sons #1
Harper Jackson
Release Date: September 6
I drowned when I was sixteen.
My brother’s best friend brought me back, but nothing was the same. I can’t remember what happened. My parents dragged me away from my island home in the name of keeping me safe, and thrust me into hell instead.
I came back to Hatterwick to rebuild my life and–hopefully–my memory.
Now a new inheritance threatens to expose those long buried secrets, and someone will stop at nothing to ensure I never remember what really happened that fateful night.
The only thing standing between me and whoever wants to hurt me is a marriage of protection with the boy who saved me–now a man grown and determined to keep me safe at all costs.
But what began as protection turns into more. Because he’s the key to unlocking what hides in the shadows of my mind, which will either save or damn us both.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy
I FLOVED Willa and Sawyer’s story. These two were just destined to be together IMO.
We knew from the prequel that Willa had nearly drowned and that Sawyer had saved her but right after her family had left the island and Sawyer hadn’t seen her in 2 years. She returns to the island just as Sawyer and his band of brothers are leaving to join the services so they barely interact.
WBD find us a few years down the line. Sawyer has returned home from the navy and Willa has settled in the small island town. Willa’s grandparents are kinda island royalty so when they pass Willa is left to deal with their estate. Things get a bit icy with her parents at the will reading and one thing leads to another where Willa and Sawyer enter into a fake relationship …. Or is it?!?!
Another installment where there were a number of things happening and the intrigue and mystery had me fully engaged from the get go.
I loved the natural progression of their relationship. What started out as a sort of form of protection developed into more because it was them and they had such history.
Just as things settle in one story there’s something else kicking off that’s a precursor to the next take and I’m so looking forward to Ford and Bree’s book…. and there’s also the continuing story Gwen story arc….. loads to look forward to!
We’ve got a tv show here in the UK that’s set in a small country village and there’s always some skulduggery going on… Hatterwick & Sutter Ferry gave me vibes of that and I was there for it all!!!

RELEASE BLAST – Ivy’s Arch (Puffin Bay #6) by Annie Dyer
IVY’S ARCH
Puffin Bay #6
Annie Dyer
Release Date: August 1
I was connected to Iris through a shared loss – Ivy – her older sister, who was also my best friend.
For a long time, we corresponded through letters. Old fashioned ink and paper on which we shared everything.
A mistaken one night stand when we were both drunk with grief didn’t ruin our friendship. We moved on. We carried on writing to each other. We stayed friends.
Four years later, and Iris is asking me for a favour. She wants a baby and needs a father, which isn’t going to be straightforward for either of us.
I say yes, pretending this will be easy. Knowing it won’t be.
Especially when that one night stand with Iris doesn’t feel like a mistake anymore – and I want more than a repeat.
I want forever.
Tropes: older sister’s best friend; friends-to-lovers; small town; planned pregnancy
TW: death of a sibling, infertility, IVF

RELEASE BLAST – The Summer Camp Swap (Summer Fling #3) by Kait Nolan
THE SUMMER CAMP SWAP
Summer Fling #3
Kait Nolan
Release Date: July 26
It’s a terrible idea.
Impersonating her twin for staff orientation at Camp Firefly Falls is sure to end badly, but Sarah Meadows can’t say no. It’s just a quick two-week break to help her sister out of a jam, then she’ll be back to finishing her stalled master’s thesis. Except when her sexy, ex-park ranger partner uncovers her secret, Sarah’s summer takes an unexpected turn.
Beckett Hayes knows he should report Sarah to the boss. But intrigued by her determination and pulled in by those big, doe eyes, he decides to train her instead. He can’t help but root for the underdog, especially when the underdog starts to wiggle her way into his heart.
Sarah’s leaving in a matter of days, so a workplace romance is the last thing they need, but that doesn’t stop either of them from diving in. Except a situationship isn’t part of Sarah’s long-term plans. As the clock counts down to the swap, the lines between duty and desire blur. Can Beckett convince Sarah to follow her heart, or will they have to be satisfied with only a summer fling?
Find out in this charming conclusion to the Summer Fling trilogy!

RELEASE BLAST – One String (Lighter Ones) by Aleatha Romig
One String
Lighter Ones
Aleatha Romig
Release Date: July 4
Tropes: Second-chance, enemies-to-lovers, fake-date, little-sister’s-best-friend, forbidden, stand-alone contemporary romance.
Blurb
Ricky Dunn is the equivalent to a splinter under my fingernail.
He’s the older brother of my best friend, and no matter how hard either of us try, we can’t seem to avoid each other. The problem started on the night my best friend and I graduated from high school. The party was joyous, a celebration.
That night, I willingly gave Ricky a part of me—more than the kiss we told others about.
Ricky kept his side of the bargain.
Being from the same small town and crossing paths, I haven’t noticed how handsome he’s become or the way he’s filled out.
If you ask me, he hasn’t noticed me either.
I’m working for a finance company, one he’s now interviewing for.
“Marilyn, will you be my date for the dinner with the partners? It’s only for one date and no strings.”
The problem is my heart hasn’t kept my side of our bargain.
Do I agree to his proposal, or do I turn him down flat?
Have you been Aleatha’d?
Check out Aleatha’s 2024 Lighter One—ONE STRING—second-chance, enemies-to-lovers, fake-date, little-sister’s-best-friend, forbidden, stand-alone contemporary romance.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy
I love Kait Nolan’s books. Being a Scot I’m especially enamoured with her stories set in my home country.
I’ve been looking forward to the Special Ops Scots series since the Kilted Hearts series wrapped up.
One Fine Night was a fabulous introduction to Ciara and Alex.
Alex is a complete mystery. We don’t know why he’s left the military and I’m looking forward to finding out his story.
Ciara is herself uncertain of her future and what she really wants to do. I’m hoping she returns home to Glenlaig and it’ll be interesting seeing how things turn out for her.
This pair really are destined to be together but you just know that Kait is not gonna make their path to a HEA an easy one…. with the help of Ewan, Ciara’s big brother and Alex’s friend, obviously! 😈
A great kickstart to this new series. I can’t wait for their story to continue.
