Ohhh this is a second chance of all second chance romances ever! Madison delivers all the swoon, laughs and so much more within the pages of Mine to Have. With Harlow having the ties to the Southern series gave the book so much more depth as she goes to Travis’ wedding and insanity ensues. And the crazy thing, with everything that went wrong at the wedding, I can 100% believe that it can and will happen! But their connection! Oh my stars! The connection that Harlow and Travis have still even though they were apart for so many years is beyond undeniable! It is raw, passionate and beautiful. The fact that they work to be with the other even though their communication skills kinda lack in that department made for a realistic read. I adored this book and I am SO looking forward to the next in the series!
Meet Natasha Madison
When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...
After years of hard work and saving all my pennies while working as Balsam Ridge’s librarian, my dream of opening a combination book store and cafe is finally coming to fruition. Everything is on track until my old high school flame, Nashville’s trouble-making superstar Garrett Tuttle, comes back to town. His wild ways and out-of-control behavior caused his label to send him home while the chatter dies down. Garrett doesn’t know how to lay low, and his arrival turns my world upside down. But I’m not the same broken-hearted girl he left all those years ago, and I’m the only woman on earth who’s not affected by his playboy charm. Can I stand firm or will Garrett’s sweet lyrics make my heart soar again?
Small Town, Musician, Second Chance Romance.

It is a very raw and emotional second chance romance with some unique twists that will gut you as well. But these two just cannot deny their connection that even though years have passed, it is still sparking. Between the witty banter, the intense emotional moments and those sizzling ones, you are kept on your toes from start to finish. I devoured this book in one sitting because I could not get enough. I am dying to get more from this family too! The blending with all the characters adds so much depth to the story and it was everything. Hands down recommend this book and honestly anything else Kelly has written!

Crown of Crimson, an all-new dark fantasy romance with high heat in the Underworld Gods Series from New York Times Bestselling author Karina Halle, is out now!
All Hanna Heikkinen wants is to be reunited with her father again. After all, that's why she ventured into the dark and dangerous fantasy world of Tuonela, the Land of the Dead, in order to save his life. But this time her devotion to her father comes at a cost---her growing relationship with Tuoni, the God of Death himself, who held Hanna captive in exchange for her father's life. The last thing she expects is to feel remorse at leaving Death at his castle of Shadow's End without even saying goodbye, and yet he's all she can think about.
Death has always prided himself on never trusting the living, but Hanna's apparent betrayal has left a scar fathom's deep. Vowing revenge on his future bride, and making sure she upholds her end of the bargain, Death sets out across his realm to steal Hanna back, which only fans the flames between them. But Death and Hanna aren't just fighting each other---malevolent Old Gods are rising to power within the realm, magic is being poisoned, and buried secrets are brought to light, secrets that may cause Hanna to lose everyone she loves dear once again.
He shakes his head ever so subtly, his fingers bruising my skin. “After all you’ve seen, all you’ve done, all you’ve felt, and you’re still blind to the world around you. This is your world, Hanna. You know it is. You know you belong here more than you’ve ever belonged in your other life, and more than that, you belong here with me.”
My jaw tightens as I try to ignore the way my heart is skipping in my chest. “You’re sounding sentimental.”
“You’re mistaking sentiment with facts,” he says, lowering his masked face toward mine. “A mistake I’m sure you won’t make again. You belong with me, because that is the bargain we made. There is no escape for you. Not now, not ever. You made a promise to me, and your promise will be held to the very end.”
There’s a finality in his words that makes my blood run cold. For a moment he loosens his grip and sighs deeply. “I know you don’t like being told what to do, but you could have had it all,” he says, almost wistfully. “You could have had my trust. Now you will become my wife and there won’t be an ounce of trust or love between us.”
My heart skips again. “Who said anything about love?”
“Hmmph.” He tilts his head, examining me. “I could have loved you, you know.”
Oh. That I didn’t know. And for reasons I can’t explain, it feels like he’s pulled a pin out from my heart and I’m slowly deflating.
Oh my freaking stars! What Karina Halle gives us is something so mind blowing unique that I could not get enough. The Finnish tale that Halle spins in her own way is just perfection as we delve deeper into Hannah and Death’s world and so much more. I lived for the concept, the spice and so much more! While we get more twists and turns, we are left wanting and dying to get our hands on the third book. I simply cannot wait for it! Plus… these covers are legit FIRE. Especially for A Crown of Crimson. It literally speaks to the whole story!

She may sing country, but she's a city girl at heart...
Melody Miles is country music's current darling. When a fan goes from enthusiastic to scary, she and her manager agree it's a good idea for her to get out of Nashville and find a place to lay low. Luckily, he knows a guy who runs a security company and lives in a small town in the middle of nowhere, Montana. She may stick out like a sore thumb at first but eventually fits right in with the people of Mason Creek.
He's rough on the outside, with a gooey center...
Enzo Fratelli is a retired military man and owner of a successful company, so moving back home to help his dad was an easy decision. When his new superstar client needs to hide away from a stalker, Mason Creek is the perfect place for her to go incognito. On the surface they have nothing in common, but the more time they spend together, the more she sneaks past his defenses.

Oh my stars! Where do I begin on this one! Perfect Hideaway will sweep you off your feet with unexpected twists, intense passion and so much more. I loved how Melody on the surface could be one of those celebs that are beyond demanding but is so beyond down to earth. Pairing her with Enzo was absolutely everything. While he may be all about the job to protect her, he cannot help falling for her. Their push and pull was epic. Their banter was everything. I could not get enough. Even when things came to head with the stalker, it was perfection. I enjoyed every moment of this one and devoured it once I started. Amazing addition to the Mason Creek world!

I am no longer the stray he picked up off the street. I am…His Wife.
Alexius Del Rossa made me an offer I couldn’t refuse.
A temporary arrangement. One that would benefit us both.
Be his wife for six months so he can solidify his legacy, and I walk away with the security of having the Del Rossa name.
Now I realize that it’s no longer that simple—not while his every command bends my will and entices me to obey.
We’ve become each other’s poison—a toxic mix of his wicked touch and my dark desires.
By day I’m the woman who walks by his side, and by night I’m the toy who kneels at his feet.
He’s given me a taste of how it feels to indulge without limits, a glimpse of what life would be like as the queen of his empire.
But I can’t ignore the warnings. The subtle stir of whispers that nothing is as it seems.
Even though Alexius helped me conquer my demons once…I’m afraid my husband might just be the real monster I should fear.
SNEAK PEEK:
Each time he touches me, I feel it deeper, its effect more profound. It digs deep into my soul, penetrating every wall I have ever built. I’m weak against it, unable to fight the descent into oblivion with him, lost forever, and God knows I never want to be found. Not as long as I’m with him.
At night in bed, just the feel of his breath against my skin has my blood instantly rushing to the surface, heat accelerating through my body, causing my head to spin with the promise of pleasure he delivers every single time.
I’ve never been one to play with fire, yet with him, I crave to burn. I pray for my destruction if it means I can find my ruin in his palms, his fingers, his mouth, his body. I never imagined that I’d one day find myself in the arms of a man whose name once sent shivers down my spine. Now, his name ignites a spark—no, a raging inferno that makes my body ache for him.
Alexius.
Alexius Del Rossa.
My husband.
The man I vowed to hate only to fall into the snake pit where my heart now only beats for him. I am his. I want only him. Every second spent with him is one moment closer to my undoing. I know it. I can feel it in my soul. Alexius would be the end of me.
