#newrelease – Melt for Us Daddy by Stella Moore

“We’re going to ruin you. So you better tell me now if you want us to stop.”
To save my sisters, I fled the only home I’ve ever known.
And ran straight into the arms of two women designed to tempt me into damnation.
Sweet, caring Ivy, with her bright smile and gentle words. Even her touch is like an angel’s, soft and tender and full of promise.
Then there’s Cordelia. Strict and commanding, with emerald eyes that make me want to drop to my knees and beg her for pleasures I barely understand. She is Ivy’s complete opposite in every way.
Except for how she makes my blood heat with need and my body cry out for her touch. Everything I was taught tells me it’s wrong to want even one of them.
Wanting both of them? A one-way ticket to hell.
But if that’s what loving them gets me… then I’ll greet the devil with a smile on my face.

Sassy heroines? Check. Strict, dominant heroes? Check. Pages and pages of spice, kink, and happily ever afters? Oh, yeah. Triple check.

Stella Moore is a USAToday Bestselling author of irresistibly sassy romances with a little something for everyone. From everyday heroes to men who rule the criminal underworld, Stella just straight up loves a good love story. Especially if it involves a naughty heroine going over someone’s knee a time or two. You’ll also find lovers of all shapes, sizes, and ethnicities in Stella’s books because she believes everyone deserves their own happily ever after.

#romantsy – Song of the Heart Scale (The Dragon’s Ballad Book 3) by Karina Espinosa

You’d think surviving dragons, doppelgänger drama, and a fated twin flame bond would earn a girl a break—but no, not in Elaria.

I’m Cat, and I’ve officially hit the third act of my fantasy nightmare. There’s famine sweeping the land, war brewing like a badly-timed sequel, and—plot twist!—Damien Drakonar, the infuriatingly hot dragon prince I may or may not love, is now facing off against his own brother, Crown Prince Thorne. Yeah. Family dinners are awkward.

Oh, and did I mention the whole “I’ve been promised to another” situation? Because nothing says “happily ever after” like a surprise royal engagement and a kingdom on the verge of collapse.

As swords clash and secrets surface, I’m stuck between two worlds—my old life in L.A., with takeout and traffic, or this new one where I might just help shape the fate of an entire realm… and maybe even find my own. But choosing love over everything? That’s a risk even Hollywood couldn’t choreograph.

This is it—the final battle, the last song. So buckle up. Things are about to get dragon-level dramatic.

#urbanfantasy – Veiled Justice by Heather G. Harris

Murder has crashed the party, so justice won’t wait for an invitation.

Champagne, caviar… and a corpse. This high-society party wasn’t meant to end in murder. When my brother calls me to investigate the brutal stabbing of a female ogre at the charity ball of the season, the glittering magical elite quickly become a sea of suspects.

Everyone who’s anyone was there, but glamour has given way to something far darker. Someone’s playing a deadly game, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. It’s my job to cut through the beauty and lies to find a killer hiding among the rich and powerful.

As a police inspector with the Connection, I’ve seen plenty of strange things, but this case reeks of entitlement, secrets, and old money with something to hide. Then the King of the Ogres storms in. Furious and formidable, he demands justice. Stopping him from tearing through the guest list is almost as hard as keeping my mind on the case, because rage and power look annoyingly good on him.

But when a dryad turns up dead at another elite event, I realise I’m chasing a serial killer who thinks they’re too rich to face consequences… and they’re setting my brother up to take the fall.

With a rookie partner finding his feet and my talking-bird sidekick offering sharp advice (and sharper insults), I’m racing against the clock to solve the case before my brother faces the lethal justice of the Other realm…

#newrelease #sports – Baller by S.L. Hanna

Lena Griffin thought she had it all—glamorous job, gorgeous home, picture-perfect marriage. But at nearly forty, her life is unraveling fast. Divorcing, disillusioned, and questioning everything, she needs a reset. Not another relationship. Definitely not love.

Enter Josh. Twenty-eight, insanely hot, and a pro volleyball player with a body built for sin and a smile that could wreck a woman on sight. Their chemistry is instant. Off-the-charts. Completely unexpected.

Their fling is supposed to be temporary, just a little fun to shake off the dust. But Josh surprises her. He’s grounded, kind, and somehow exactly what she didn’t know she needed.

He’s younger. She’s cautious. And they’re both playing way out of bounds.

But when passion turns into something deeper, Lena has to decide if she’s brave enough to risk her heart on the kind of love that doesn’t play by the rules.

#AuthorSpotlight #Cowboys – The Rancher’s Home (Silver Creek Ranch Book 5) by Darie McCoy

When home isn’t just a place.

Former Army Ranger Rothschild ‘Roth’ Stephens has found comforting peace in the vast, tranquil expanse of his Texas ranch. Scarred both physically and emotionally from his time in the service, Roth prefers his own quiet company, filling his days with the grueling, rhythmic chores of ranch life.

Circumstances bring her home where she faces old memories, along with the man who witnessed the most horrible day of her life. Roth Stephens. Her brother’s best friend.

When they meet again, they both attempt to ignore their draw to one another. However, Autumn is forced to seek Roth’s help. The sparks they’d tried to deny existed, ignite. What starts as a simple favor soon evolves into a deeper connection as they confront their pasts and navigate the complexities of their emotions.

#preorder – The Alpha’s Bounty by Luna Wilder

She’s my bounty, but I’ll risk everything to keep her.

Mina
I ran.
From my past. From the people who hurt me. From a system that never once protected me.
I missed my court date, and now there’s a bounty on my head.
I never expected a bounty hunter to track me down so fast.
Or for him to be the most dangerously handsome man I’ve ever met.
Cyrus is relentless, intimidating… and completely unreadable.
But the moment our eyes meet, something shifts.
He’s not just here to bring me in—he’s something else. Something more.
And the way he looks at me makes me wonder if running might finally be over for me.

Cyrus
Each of the Alphas has a responsibility, and mine is cracking down on crime.
That means that I hunt fugitives for a living.
Bring them in. Collect the reward. Move on.
That was the plan—until I found her.
Mina.
The moment I see her, I know the truth.
She’s mine. My fated mate.
But she’s also my job.
If I turn her in, I lose her.
If I don’t, I could lose everything else.
Now I have a choice to make.
And it’s not much of a choice at all.

#newrelease -Snatching The Chronos Hourglass by Brenda Trim

 

My name is Nylah Gilbert, and my work-life balance is absolutely shot.

By day, I’m a firefighter dealing with ordinary emergencies like kitchen fires and idiots who think fireworks belong indoors. By night, I’m apparently the universe’s go-to girl for hunting down ancient artifacts that want to murder everyone.

Because naturally, when my grandmother’s antique watch starts having a temporal breakdown and clockwork beetles invade my living room, someone thought, “Hey, let’s dump this on the middle-aged mom who’s already juggling a full-time job, teenage daughters, and a husband who turns furry once a month.”

Thanks, universe. Really feeling the love here.

Now I’ve got fragments of some godly hourglass burning holes in my bag, my husband’s been yeeted into another timeline, and my girls are casting spells between homework assignments like it’s totally normal. Did I mention the fanatical cult trying to rewrite history? Because that’s apparently my weekend now.

The Brotherhood thinks they can use the Chronos Hourglass to “cleanse” the world of technology. What they’re actually going to do is turn everyone into medieval peasants while they play god with the timeline. Over my dead body.

I’ve got my best friends Kaiya and Aeira watching my back, a Pegasus who’s seen some serious stuff, and enough magical firepower to level a city block. The universe picked the wrong part-time Relic Keeper to mess with.

Time’s running out—literally—and if I don’t stop these lunatics before dawn, Washington D.C. becomes ground zero for the apocalypse. No pressure or anything.

Good thing I’ve always been better at putting out fires than starting them. Though at this point, I might have to burn down half the world to save it.

Snatching the Chronos Hourglass – because when time goes sideways, someone’s got to clock out and save the world.
