  Yay! I finished a book series that I started in 2021. I read two ARCs from the author and never saw an ARC listing again. So I signed up for her newsletter and a few books had already been released. So I waited. The series was recently released on Kindle Unlimited. So I dove right back in! Giovanni One year. That’s how long I’ve wanted my boss’ cousin. I’ve worked my way up the ranks, dedicating my life to the syndicate while I tried easing Francesca’s fear of men. The time has finally come for me to claim her. Francesca Seven years ago, my family’s enemy took everything from me. I’ve been determined to get it all back. When those same enemies nearly kill Giovanni, our friendship changes to something more. Until a secret emerges that could destroy everything.

We find out a lot of interesting information in this, lik...

Walk of Shame by Avery Flynn is now live!  One night. No strings. And a really good puck. Five years ago, Astrid O’Malley experienced the ultimate in public humiliation. Being dumped at the altar by her childhood sweetheart was horrifying enough. That fact that he was a professional hockey goalie and her dad was his coach? It was all anyone in sports could talk about. Eff hockey. Eff goalies. These days, Astrid lives a life (mostly) free of hockey and free to pursue whoever she wants with exactly zero shame in her game. Like tonight’s hook-up. This guy’s nailed the lumberjack aesthetic perfectly . Especially when he has the stamina and creativity to back it up. Because the rule is: it’s one night only. Which is gonna be a problem because she’s just discovered he lives in the apartment upstairs. And he’s joined her dad’s team. As the goalie coach. To train her ex. Now Astrid is in some kind of hockey hell–filled with her ex, her family, and the best sex of her life. And somehow she’...

  A Little Naughty by Tia Louise is now live!   I wasn’t planning to propose to Raif Jones, the bad boy from the wrong side of town. The one with the tattooed muscles, naughty blue eyes, and dimpled, James-Dean grin. It all started with a series of bad decisions.  First was flirting with a dangerous criminal to rescue a little girl I didn’t even know. Second was throwing a massive, masked gala in my small-town hideout (complete with drag queens) and not expecting to draw attention…  Then Raif rode in on a motorcycle and melted my undies (and my heart), saying he wouldn’t let anybody hurt me.  Of course, I asked him to marry me. Imagine my surprise when he said yes. We’re a little naughty and a lot hot , and the perks of being married are very… perky . They’re perky in the shower, on the kitchen table, against the front door… Until Bad Decision #1 tracks me down (thanks to Bad Decision #2), and my outlaw husband turns Alpha Protector , risking everything t...
