Hallie

No one pushes my buttons the way Logan Johnson does. I’ve spent most of my adult life trying to ignore him, which isn’t easy when you live in a small town and share the same friends.

So, when I have a little too much to drink and need a place to crash after our friends’ wedding, it would figure I find myself at Logan’s house. What I’m not expecting is ending up in his bed. With him. Naked. More so, I wasn’t anticipating enjoying myself as much as I did, anxious for a repeat, which is why I’m not surprised when it happens again.

The problem is those drunken nights have resulted in something unplanned. Something monumental. Something that will change our lives forever.

Logan

Being attracted to someone who drives you completely crazy is its own form of hell. Hallie Rhodes is entirely infuriating, yet so damn beautiful it makes me ache.

There’s a fine line between love and hate, and we’ve been blurring it for as long as I can remember. So, when a late, drunken night turns into something it shouldn’t, all bets are off. Plans change and futures are cemented, despite having no idea what really comes next. All I know is the more time we spend together, the more I realize having her in my life is paramount.

Now my biggest challenge of all presents itself. Proving to Hallie we’re better together than we ever were apart.

Ah I love a good hate to love and love to hate type romance and hands down that is Hallie and Logan. These two are connected due to history and friendships and I loved their banter and connection. They have amazing push and pull which gives me all the gooey vibes. Especially when the unexpected happens and now they are navigating this new reality. Amazing read and I am looking forward to what is to come!

Is this Love? by Kaylee Ryan

 

Title: Is This Love?

Series: Everlasting Ink #2

Author: Kaylee Ryan

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Small Town/Age Gap/Marriage of

Convenience/Fake Relationship/Only One Bed

Release Date: March 19, 2024

BLURB

NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you the continuation of the stand-alone series surrounding five best friends who co-own a tattoo studio. "Is This Love?” is an age gap, marriage of convenience, friends to lovers, small-town romance.

Legend

A marriage of convenience is one thing… but falling for your fake wife is all kinds of complicated.

Being married for a year is the only way to claim my inheritance. I couldn’t care less about the money. It’s not like I even knew my grandparents.

I wasn’t even considering it until Monroe volunteered. Sweet, sweet, Monroe. I’ve never let myself consider her as an option for me.

She’s been tucked safely away in a box labeled forbidden. That is until she takes my last name.

Monroe

It’s not like I planned to marry one of my friends… or fall for him.

One minute I offer to be his fake wife, and the next, we’re going through the motions— saying, “I do,” and playing house.

Legend is the kind of guy fantasies are made of—tall, dark, and tattooed. Now I’m sharing his bed and his last name for the next year.

Everything looks good on paper, and while this may have started out as playing pretend, the way I feel for him is the realest thing I’ve ever known.

As the weeks pass by, it doesn’t take long before either of us begins to question if we’re just friends or if this is this love after all.

Oh I was so excited to see Monroe get her story. I adored her character in the first book and seeing her with Legend was everything. Their connection and just how they are together is perfection! The reasoning behind why they became a couple to how it all plays out, my heart was swooning! I adore that the drama is low within this story. Seeing the build and the friendships was amazing as well. I think this story just hit me hard with the feels and the cozy goodness that Ryan is known for! Great read and I am SO looking forward to who will bring Forrest to his knees!

The Flame King's Bride by Chloe Chastaine

 

Title: The Flame King's Bride

A Fated Mates Fantasy Romance

Trilogy: Fire and Desire #2

Author: Lilith Vincent writing as

Chloe Chastaine

Genre: Fantasy Romance

Tropes: Non-shifter Omegaverse/Fated Mates

Release Date: March 13, 2024

BLURB

His desire for me burns hotter than flames, but unseen forces threaten to tear us apart.

I was the Flame King’s reluctant mate, a bride he snatched from another man’s funeral pyre. Zabriel was chosen for me by fate, and I fought my craving for him every step of the way.

At seven feet tall and riding the biggest, meanest dragon in the flare, Zabriel is an Alpha who can take whatever he wants and burn those who stand in his way. Yet he healed my wounded heart with coaxing words and fiery kisses until I craved no one but him.

In the midst of war, I found love in the arms of the Flame King.

My first heat is drawing closer and soon Zabriel will finally claim me and make me his. I’m his Omega and his bride, but I’m also a witch. There are many in Maledin who would rather see me burn than become Zabriel’s bride, or even kill their king before he can marry me.

Friends wear masks that conceal their blood-soaked intentions. Enemies past and present are sharpening their knives. Dragons hunt for prey, and protecting the man I love could leave my heart bleeding on ashes.

Author’s note: The Flame King’s Bride is a steamy, non-shifter MF romance set in a fantasy world of magic and dragonriders. Zabriel is a possessive hero, and Isavelle is a strong but sweet heroine. This is the second book in the Fire and Desire trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger.

Preorder & Join the Events Today!

Cover Designer: Cormar Covers

Bratva Lullaby:

I’m fake dating the boss of the Zarkov bratva, what could possibly go wrong?

Lev Zarkov is a real life monster.

No, correction, he’s actually the devil. 

Except, when I first meet him he’s simply the mysterious, handsome man travelling next to me in first class on a flight to New York. 

And after being dumped at the altar by my loser fiancé who vanished into thin air the morning of our wedding, when things get flirty between me and the mysterious stranger, I think why not?

Surely I deserve one night to forget, I mean, where’s the harm in a little indulgence, right?

I’ll tell you exactly where the harm is. It turns out my one night stand is not only the boss of the Zarkov bratva, but he’s also a billionaire who is used to getting what he wants …and what he wants is me with his ring on my finger. 

I’m to appear in public as his fake fiancé and in return my loser ex will get to keep his brains inside his head.  

Every instinct tells me I don’t want to do this.

I’m just not prepared for how persuasive he can be… 

Bratva Lullaby is book one in the Zarkov Bratva duet. Brooke and Lev’s story concludes in book two, Midnight Poison. 

Midnight Poison:

He took me as collateral to insure my ex -fiancé kept the deal they made. 

But since then Lev Zarkov has become so much more than the devil I thought he was.  

And now his baby grows in my belly. 

I don’t want to leave him but after one devastating night blows up our life, I know I have my baby to think about.

I tell myself that leaving is the right thing to do. But waking up without Lev in the middle of the night is pure midnight poison. 

I miss his touch. His smell. The warm, comforting way he would hold me in his arms and let me know how much he wanted me. 

But that isn’t the man who comes after me.

He’s angry. He’s formidable. He’s hurt. 

And now that he’s found me, he’s going to make me pay for breaking his heart. 

But there is a danger lurking in the shadows. 

And we’ll have to put our differences aside long enough to fight the invisible threat that could destroy everything. 

Midnight Poison is book two in the Zarkov duet and concludes Brooke & Lev’s story.

She found her happily ever after with an Australian hottie who she met on a blind date.
