  Skies Over Caledonia                       Chasing Wild Now And Forever            Corrupted Heart I didn't get to two of the books on my most anticipated list from last month. But they are still on my TBR list, of course. There are other books I can't wait to get my hands on but they weren't on this list I voted on, on Goodreads. What are you looking forward to reading?

 Another First To Read from the archives. A witty and inherently feminist novel about passion and marriage, based on a true story of an unstoppable woman ahead of her time in Victorian London. In 1887, Isabel Bilton is the eldest of three daughters of a middle-class military family, growing up in a small garrison town. By 1891 she is the Countess of Clancarty, dubbed “the peasant countess” by the press, and a member of the Irish aristocracy. Becoming Belle is the story of the four years in between, of Belle’s rapid ascent and the people that tried to tear her down. With only her talent, charm, and determination, Isabel moves to London alone at age nineteen, changes her name to Belle, and takes the city by storm, facing unthinkable hardships as she rises to fame. A true bohemian and the star of a dancing double act she performs with her sister, she reigns over The Empire Theatre and The Corinthian Club, where only select society entertains. It is there she falls passionately in love...

Title:  Kinks of a Billionaire Author: Eva Winners Genre: Billionaire Romance Tropes: Friends to Lovers/Who Did This To You Release Date: April 26, 2024 BL URB Royce Ashford. The hottest man I’d ever met. The first man I’d fallen for. I’ve had a crush on my best friend’s older brother for as long as I could remember.

And a leading man in every single one of my naughty fantasies. The first time I kissed him, we ended up locked in the friend zone forever. Apparently my smooching skills left much to be desired. In my defense, I was too young and inexperienced. But I grew up and totally got over him. Until my engagement fell apart and Royce swooped in like a prince charming, saving me. One tiny problem. I was falling for him all over again. My lustful imagination, raging hormones and accidenta...

Theodora Taylor has revealed the gorgeous cover for Sunny in Vegas! Releasing: May 4, 2024 The Ruthless Magnate Will See You Now Someone I love did a truly terrible thing, and I’m working three jobs on top of my one as a showgirl at the Benton Las Vegas Grand to make up for it before anyone finds out—too late. Cole Benton III, the ruthless CEO of the Benton Worldwide hotel empire, calls me into his glass office overlooking the Vegas skyline, demanding to know why I stole all the money from one of his grandmother’s charity funds. I can’t tell him that. “You are aware that I could have you fired, arrested, or worse,” he asks, his voice like black ice. Clearly dangerous. Gulp . There’s a reason everyone calls him Triple Ice behind his back, and it goes way beyond the three Roman numerals behind his name. Rumor has it that he’s BFFs with the leader of a local cartel and that he’s not afraid to call him for favors. But I can’t answer—not if it means throwing the real thief under his “or wor...
