Fresh out of college, I stumbled into the opportunity of a lifetime. A classmate of my favorite professor was looking to retire and sell his animal hospital. With a lot of help and a giant push from my sister and her husband, I made an offer. I’m now the proud owner of Wags Veterinary Hospital in Trenton, New Jersey.

Life is good. I have a home with a beautifully landscaped lawn, a business that I love, and an amazing tribe of friends who encourage me to “put myself out there.” Truth be told, I prefer animals over most people. I’m happy with the occasional girls’ night in and catching a glimpse of the hot neighbor, who I undeniably fantasize about, and do so often.

Those fantasies, however, come to a dramatic end when I see him walking his new puppy on my property and not cleaning up its mess, twice. There’s nothing hot about a man who doesn’t take care of his shit, or his dog’s. Nothing.

Fantasy ruined.


Roman

Who gets a second chance at playing professional baseball after turning it down once before? This guy. I thought it was too good to be true, but my family encouraged me to take the opportunity and see what would happen. That’s exactly what I did, with zero expectations.

When I got the call that I was being pulled up from the minors to the majors, it was no longer an opportunity; it was a reality. Adjustments had to made. I was going to be calling Trenton, New Jersey, home for a while; therefore, my minor league lifestyle had to change. No more cleat chasers or hookups. I had to focus.

The problem with this is, my focus is on the hot redhead next-door, and she … well, she can’t stand me.

If I’ve learned anything in the past couple years, it’s that baseball is magic. It’s not in the game itself; it’s in the lessons taught about endless opportunities.

Right now, I’m on first, just waiting for the opportunity to steal second.

Release Blitz & Review: The Drawback of Single Dads

 

The Drawback of Single Dads by Piper Rayne is now live!

He’s the father of my child and my best friend.

When Hudson and I met, somehow things just clicked between us. We had the same sense of humor and the same carefree attitude about our lives and goals. Neither of us wanted to lay down roots, we wanted to explore the world.

Then one night, too much alcohol and uncontrolled hormones led to the line blurring, and we fell into bed together only to discover a month later that we were more careless than we thought.

Like the upstanding guy he is, Hudson followed me back to my hometown of Lake Starlight, Alaska, where you can’t throw a penny and not hit one of my family members. We gave them the news that yes, we were having a baby but there would be no wedding. We loved each other but we weren’t in love.

Fast forward three years and we live side by side to make co-parenting our daughter easy. I’m a writer, and he’s a ski instructor. We’ve worked out all the rough edges. Life is good.

Until out of nowhere, things start to change. He has a girlfriend, we’re arguing more than ever, and it feels as if someone has come along and popped our perfect bubble. I’m not sure we’re ever going to fit back inside it now because things are developing. Things like feelings.

Duet Narration by Jason Clarke & Kit Swann coming mid-May

I love a great single parent story and this one has two!  Technically they are both parents to their young daughter but they aren't "together" --  or are there? 

Hudson and Palmer are best friends. They just happen to share a child together. They live next door and neither of them wants to have anything more--right? But other relationships just don't seem to work out for them.  Palmer is a romance writer and she has mental block. Until she is inspired to write a very familiar story. One she knows too well. 

These two have lots of chemistry and it is evident to everyone but them that they are destined to be together. It was fun to watch them try to figure out what they meant to each other and what life could be if they just gave in. 

I haven't read any other book in this series and it was no problem picking up the small town characters. Sweet read. 

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Miles Thatcher and I would not have gotten together if my life had gone according to plan.

Recently single with her whole life up in the air, Emma Abate knows that getting into any kind of relationship, is a bad idea. Especially when the man she finds herself drawn to is Miles Thatcher, a single father, and a man that seems determined to break down every barricade she places between them.

Could this be real?

Miles doesn’t do complicated. But it’s difficult to remember all the reasons why Emma is supposed to be off limits when she begins to fill a void in his and his daughters' life, a void that he never realized was there, until her.

Before this ends will Miles and Emma realize they have something worth fighting for? Or will his job as a detective, the murder of two young women, and Emma’s past get the best of them before they ever get the chance?


Life is never simple, and neither is love.

It's been a minute since the first book of this series came out. I forgot about this great group of found family.  Miles and his brothers were in foster care together and they all now work in the law enforcement field. Miles is a single parent to Winter and the whole family helps him raising her. 

Emma is best friends with Mile's brother's girlfriend and so she gets introduced.  What starts as two friends helping each other out, turns in to a great friendship and then turns into more. This is a slow burn with great bones to the relationship. There is some angst. Some tension due to the work that Miles and his brothers are involved in that has continues over from the previous book. 

Overall a wonderful read!  I am very much looking forward to the next brother find his HEA.

This is book two of the series. This one follows oldest sister Harper. Her and Joe have history and we see quite a bit of their interactions in the first book. This one overlaps some time frame but we see it from Harp and Joe's perspective. 

I admit to figuring out right away what the big animosity was tied to. I thought I would just plod through the story. It was a nice surprise to see their HEA unfold. It could have totally gone a different direction. I appreciate their honest when all was said and done. 

Great family story. Both Joe and Harper have the total support form not only family but you get the sense the whole town is cheering for them. Nice groundwork laid for the remaining siblings as well. 

Great addition to the series.  Looking forward wo book 3!

Release Blitz & Review: Line Change

 

      

Title: Line Change 

Author: Heidi McLaughlin 

Genre: Sports Romance 

Release Date: March 19, 2024 

Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC

.

Thea Jenson has her future meticulously planned out. Graduate from college. Get a job. Marry her high school sweetheart and have two beautiful children. When she decides to transfer schools, her brother suggests she move in with him and his unruly hockey roommates. Everything in her life is going according to her plan . . .

. . . until she bumps into Kyler in their kitchen and sparks fly.

Kyler Rose, the starting center for the Northport University hockey team, is done for the moment he lays his eyes on Thea. But he can't allow her to become a distraction. He's determined to make it to the NHL. That's if he doesn't get booted for failing grades first. And even though he's on scholarship, it doesn't pay his bills or provide for his family. Neither do the tips he earns from his bartending gig. When an offer to make some fast cash falls in his lap, he takes it, thinking no one will care if he gets hurt . . .

. . . except Thea does care.

But just as Kyler finds a way to navigate his feelings for Thea, an unexpected link to his family comes to light and he finds himself in the fight of his life to protect those he loves the most - his family.

Previously published under a pen name. This was my second read of the story.

Close proximity, brothers best friend trope. Thea joins her brother at his university and moves into the house he and his teammates share. She gets along with them all very well and her brother is happy to have her.

Housemate Kyler is a bit standoffish but Thea is drawn to him. As they get closer, secrets come out. Thea's ex is horrendous. I can't even imagine what she say in him in the first place. I don't think he changed just as she moved away to school.

Twist, turns and some tension. The heart knows what it wants, though and these two were destined to be together. Can't wait to catch up with them later on should the series continue.

*Complimentary copy provided for an honest review.

Release Blitz & Review: This Much is True

 

When celebrity Laina Kelley bolted from her small hometown church on her wedding day, she ran to the first place that came to mind—to the home of the local farrier, a gorgeous playboy who just so happens to be her first love ... and biggest frenemy.

This Much Is True by Adriana Locke is now live!

USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke delivers a new “sweet and spicy!” standalone romance about a runaway bride who finds herself in the arms, and horse barn, of her deliciously handsome frenemy—who just so happens to be her first love.

This isn’t your average romance. It begins with me in a wedding dress, just not at an altar …

I never expected to be a runaway bride. I also never thought I’d end up on my ex’s doorstep to flee from said wedding. Now that I’m here, it’s easy to find the key in an old boot by the door and let myself inside. It’s not breaking and entering if I have a key, right?

It’s safe to say that Luke Marshall didn’t expect to find me on his couch in my wedding dress, my veil over my face in tears. He has no choice but to listen to my panic-induced plea for salvation. It’s only a matter of time before the tabloids get wind of my disappearing act, and my life is over.

Luke takes pity on me and says I can stay… on one condition.

I can’t sing for my supper—I have to earn it. I have to work in the barn alongside him, up to my elbows in horse manure. Oh—and because there’s only one bed, I get the couch.

This works … in theory. However, when sparks start flying, and the small-town farrier asks me to stay, I’ll have to decide between my life as a pop star or a second chance with my first love.

This author can write small town romance like no other. Throw in some siblings, nosy town folks and a second chance romance and this book is about as good as it gets for a feel good romance. 

Luke and Laina have a history. She's the girl he let get away. When she finds she needs a quick getaway, she runs to Luke knowing he will protect her. At one time they meant the world to each other. Fame got in the way but their hearts seem to have remained true. 

Love the whole Marshall family. Loved Laina and Luke together. Just a great read. Very little angst--most of it around her parents and ex. And the two leads have a ton of chemistry. 

Looking forward to reading more of the family as they get their HEA.  Great seeing some Landry family pop up in this ne as well.  

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

USA Today and Amazon Charts Bestselling author, Adriana Locke, writes contemporary romances about the two things she knows best—big families and small towns. Her stories are about ordinary people finding extraordinary love with the perfect combination of heart, heat, and humor.

She loves connecting with readers, fall weather, football, reading alpha heroes, everything pumpkin, and pretending to garden.

Hailing from a tiny town in the Midwest, Adriana spends her free time with her high school sweetheart (who she married over twenty years ago) and their four sons (who truly are her best work). Her kitchen may be a perpetual disaster, and if all else fails, there is always pizza.

Blitz by Devney Perry is now live!

A forbidden, small town, sports romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Devney Perry.

A coach. A student. The rules were concrete. We broke them anyway.

The night I met Toren Greely was the night I learned how to lie. He was a Treasure State football coach. I was the star of the volleyball team. Coaches and students were forbidden. My future was on the line, so I told myself it was only one night.

That was the first lie. They got easier to tell after that. The lines blurred. The boundaries shifted. Our relationship became a game of its own.

A chaste smile. A knowing glance. A veiled touch or a hushed kiss. We hid in plain sight. We were invincible. Or so we thought. Neither of us saw the blitz coming until it was too late.

Game over. The night I left Toren Greely was the night I learned how to lose.
