The Revenge Pact kicks off an all-new series, The Kings of Football, with an emotional and super-charged new adult standalone romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills is available now!

River Tate is a god on campus.
The king of football.
A tattooed bad boy with gunmetal eyes that see right through you.
The only chink in his armor is her, the girl he pretends doesn’t exist, the forbidden one with the shy smile and lavender hair.

Anastasia Bailey is a nobody.
The queen of nothing.
An outsider with the face of an angel and a body made for sin.
The only chink in her armor is him, her boyfriend’s frat brother, the football player who hates her.

But when Anastasia’s life crashes down, River’s the one who sweeps in and picks up the pieces. Torn between loyalty, lies, and secrets, he battles the temptation to take everything from her when they make their revenge pact.

He can’t tell her no.
Because revenge (or love) is sweet, and once you get a taste, the craving never ends.

THE RELATIONSHIP PACT by Adriana Locke
Release Date: December 17th

Synopsis
How hard can it be?

That was the question rolling around Larissa Mason’s mind just before she asked Hollis Hudson to be her fake boyfriend.

It was only supposed to be for five minutes, after all.

Granted, that was also before she felt his hand on the small of her back as he charmed the heck out of her family.

She hadn’t heard his laugh yet either.

And it was definitely before she saw the football god shirtless. Otherwise, she would’ve had an idea of just how hard some things could be.

It turns out that pretending to be in love with a crazily handsome, somewhat enigmatic, and absolutely unforgettable tight end (that has an amazing tight end) is easy.

Reminding herself that just because opposites attract doesn’t mean they’re forever is much harder.

What they have isn’t love—it’s a relationship pact. Right?

My Review…

When I saw the lineup for this series, and then seeing Ms. Madden-Mills was kicking it off with this first story in the trilogy, I knew I was going to be enthralled by this first story.  And I was right!

This story of River and Anastasia is classic Ilsa Madden-Mills!  You get laughs and heat and so much heart.  The swoon factor in this story is turned all the way to an eleven! (Old movie reference, but still true.)

River is a hero that I truly fell in love with.  With the challenges that he has, (one that hits personally with me) he has made the best of his situation and became a better, more empathetic fella for it.  He loves his family, his frat brothers and he values loyalty and trust above all. 

Anastasia is such a rich character, she has an unconventional upbringing, which has made her the person she is.  Worldly in some ways and yet still naive in others.  She marches to the beat of her own drum and absolutely makes no apologies for it.  Rock on girl!!

The chemistry between River and Anastasia is white hot and it was such a slow, slow burn.  It was brilliant to read it and I found it hard to put this story down until the end.

This story just whets my appetite for the next stories in this series!! As with all of Ilsa Madden-Mills stories, I highly recommend it!

She was always the one.

Or so I thought.

Turns out my instincts were dead wrong.

 

Years ago I was faced with the choice between two women. Both were perfect in opposite ways. One was carefree and against commitment. The other was a woman you’d bring home to mom. 

 

I was young, naïve and stupid. I’m sure you can guess who I chose. 

 

Now, I’m older, wiser and know what the hell I want. 

 

So, when the same two women pop back into my life it’s my chance for a do-over. But they flipped the script. Just like me, they want different things now. Leaving me with one choice—convince the woman I want that she wants me too.

My Review…

The Rooftop Crew

Well this dynamic writing duo of Piper Rayne “Knox-ed” this story out of the park! (Sorry that pun just wrote itself!)

Just when you think “oh sure, I know exactly where Piper Rayne is going with this story” they smack you upside the head and say hold on!

This story is just what the title describes, it’s a do-over! And I am not going to go into specifics and ruin the story for you but I will say, I was totally hooked from the first paragraph and I was sad to see this story end.

I loved the evolution of Knox, he wants to believe he knows what love is, but he is so off course it’s sad.  The heroine in this story, I so empathized with her plight and the insecurities she faced.

You get to see the whole rooftop crew and you see them all come together to make Knox’s gal feel welcome and to help Knox navigate through his indecisions and give him the wake up call that he needs!

Like I have said before, I get such a “Friends” vibe from this series, and I absolutely love it! Way to go ladies!! Well done!

He’s my brother’s best friend.

The hot single dad next door.

And one accidental sext later, my massive crush on him is no longer a secret.

Make Me Yours, an all-new rom com that is all too sexy from USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow is available now!

He’s my brother’s best friend.

The hot single dad next door.

And one accidental sext later, my massive crush on him is no longer a secret.

It’s my own damn fault. I’m thirty years old, for heaven’s sake. I’m a kindergarten teacher and a (reasonably) responsible adult. I should know better than to get tipsy and draft a fake text listing all the dirty things I wish Officer Cole Mitchell would do to me.

I wasn’t supposed to hit send.

He wasn’t supposed to see it.

And he definitely wasn’t supposed to text back telling me to go on . . .

Because after that, things escalate quickly.

Cole is everything I’ve ever wanted. He’s sexy and protective. A devoted father to his little girl. A dedicated cop the whole town adores. The kind of guy you can trust to keep his hands to himself, even when you’re desperately hoping he won’t.

I’m not the girl he thought he’d end up with, but after all this time, I might finally get the chance to say the words I’ve always dreamed of . . . make me yours.

Excerpt

Darlene spoke up. “My mother passed them down to me, and I want to make sure they’re in good condition so I can leave them to Cheyenne when she gets married.” Then she crossed herself and closed her eyes, her lips moving in a quick, silent prayer.

 Cheyenne ignored her mother and addressed Mariah again. “My brother and I always had to wash and dry the wedding china on holidays before we went to bed. It took forever.”

“I’d stay and help you, sis, but I have to get Blair home. Sorry.” Griffin gave her a grin that said he wasn’t the least bit sorry, and Cheyenne stuck her tongue out at him. 

“Cole, why don’t you stay and give Cheyenne a hand?” My mother suggested, wrapping her scarf around her neck. 

“That’s a great idea,” Darlene said brightly. Then she sort of bent over and rubbed one hip, her expression agonized. “I’d help her myself but I’ve been on my feet a lot today and the doctor said that isn’t good for my joints.”

“You should just get to bed, Darlene,”my mother said, shepherding Mariah toward the front door. “Cole will be more than happy to stay and help Cheyenne.”

“Oh, that’s okay.” Cheyenne smiled at me and shook her head. “I can handle them.”

But Darlene beamed at me, reaching over and snatching my coat out of my hands. “That’s so nice of you, Cole. I’ll just hang this in the front closet.” Before she left the room, she and my mother exchanged a look that had me wondering if the whole helping-with-the-dishes thing had been a set-up. 

Either way, ten minutes later Cheyenne and I were pushing up our sleeves in the kitchen, the house dark and silent except for the running faucet and the hum of the dishwasher. 

“I’ll wash, you dry?” she asked, adding dish soap to the side of the sink she’d plugged and lined with a towel. 

“Sure.”

She took a plate from the stack to her left and placed it in the warm soapy water. “Oh! I almost forgot.” Slipping her rings and bracelets off, she set them on the windowsill above the sink. “So I don’t scratch anything,” she explained. 

“Oh.” I glanced down at my wedding ring. “It’s okay,” she said quickly. “You don’t have to take it off.”

“It’s fine,” I said, working it off my finger and placing it on the sill next to her jewelry. For some reason, I felt compelled to explain why I still wore it all the time. “Mariah once told me she likes when I wear it, so  .  .  .”

“I think it’s nice, ”she said. “I like a guy who wears his ring. It says something about him, you know?”

I nodded, my attraction to her growing even stronger. “Still, we’d better be careful with these dishes.”

“Damn right, we’d better,” she deadpanned. “This is my fucking wedding china, Cole. If we even look at it wrong, I might end up a spinster.” She laughed as she gently scrubbed the plate with a cloth. “My God. Is she not totally ridiculous?”

“She’s pretty bad,” I agreed, taking the plate from her and carefully drying it with the soft clean towel she’d given me. “But mine wasn’t much better tonight. Did you have the feeling something was up between them as we were saying goodnight?”

Yes,” she said. “And it’s probably my fault because I made the mistake of telling my mom you bought me dinner last night. In her mind, I believe we are now betrothed.”

I laughed. “That’s all it takes, huh?”

“Apparently. Tomorrow I’ll be pregnant because we washed dishes together after dark.”

“Wow. Guess I should have worn the rubber gloves.”

My Review…

The Bellamy Creek Series

This second book in this new series from Melanie Harlow is nothing short of amazing!

This is the story of Cole and Cheyenne.  Both moving home to start over after heartbreak these two childhood friends are at a crossroads.

Cheyenne has had feelings for Cole since she was a little girl, her big brother’s best friend that she idolized, but she kept quiet for years.  She is back home to start her career, to pay off student loans and find her happily ever after. Living with her mom has added an extra bit of crazy to her world.

Cole also has moved back home, with his mom to help with raising his daughter after his wife passed.  Years have gone by and Cole wants his own space.  

Promises made years ago and unresolved trauma are at the forefront of this story.  I loved the flow and I was pleasantly surprised at the reactions and feelings from the secondary characters!  

Bellamy Creek is a fictional town that I truly wish was real, the townsfolk, the town itself is a beautifully written and creatively described by Ms. Harlow.  A true magic to her words!

I look forward to “visiting” this series and this town again!

Excerpt

The front door swings open, and the never-ending nightmare that is this day smacks me in the face like a long-expired sausage. Kodiak stands in the doorway wearing only a pair of swim shorts, wet hair sticking out all over the place, water dripping on the damn floor. But God, is he ever glorious. Muscle layered over muscle, thick biceps flexing as he holds the doorjamb, a mischievous grin popping the dimple in his left cheek.
My heart seizes and gallops. I miss this version of him: the one that smiles and doesn’t hate me.
He ruins everything a moment later by bellowing, “Who’s fucking in the driveway?”
His gaze moves to Dylan, who looks as horrified as I feel, but as it shifts to me, his smile drops and my stomach tightens.
“You should really go,” I tell Dylan.
“I’ll see you around.” He disappears into his car and barely has the door closed before he’s backing out of the driveway and screeching down the street.
I adjust my backpack on my shoulder and head for the house, steeling my spine and my nerves because Kodiak is still standing in the middle of the doorway, his face a mask of indifference. I try to brush by him, but he stays where he is, making it impossible.
I sigh, exhausted beyond belief. I just want to go upstairs and have a good, cathartic cry. I try to mirror his apathy. “Can you move so I can get into my house?”
His brow furrows as his eyes move over my face. He lifts his hand, like maybe he’s thinking about touching me. There’s no way I can handle that. I jerk back and swat his hand away. “What are you doing?”
“Your lip is bleeding.”
“Don’t act like you actually give a shit, Kodiak.”
“Tell me what happened.” His voice is low and soft, and for whatever reason, that makes me even angrier, so I lash out, wanting to wound him the way he keeps wounding me.
“You, Kodiak. You happened, and you ruined my goddamn life. Now get the hell out of my way.” I elbow past him, almost tripping over several sets of running shoes.
I head straight for my bedroom and lock the door behind me. I slide down the wall until my butt hits the floor and close my eyes, taking deep breaths.
I imagined the concern in his voice.
I imagined the pain that sat heavy behind his eyes.
We see what we want to, not the truth, especially when it hurts.

My Review…

I absolutely have loved the Baileys from the get go!  And to read this bittersweet novella, with the multiple POV’s, was just the cherry on top of Great-grandma Dori’s birthday cake!

To read each chapter was a lovely glimpse into the future of this family and Lake Starlight.  So many openings for more stories. A lovely, but too brief introduction to the Greene family.

This novella was too short but was wonderfully done!  As are all of the novellas that this dynamic duo!  

Do yourself a favor and read this whole series! You will thank me for it!

I will always love the Bailey family, and I know I will fall in love with the next book that Piper Rayne puts out next!

“H. Hunting delivers what must be the most beautifully written, and certainly emotional New Adult books of the year.”
– LJ Shen, USA Today bestselling author

From New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting writing as H. Hunting, comes a beautifully written and emotional new adult romance, Little Lies, available now!

I don’t want you.
You mean nothing to me.
I never loved you.
I turned my words into swords.
And I cut her down.
Shoved the blade in and watched her fall.
I said I’d never hurt her, and I did.
Years later, I’m faced with all the little lies, the untruths, the false realities, the damage I inflicted, when all I wanted was to indulge my obsession.
Lavender Waters is the princess in the tower. Even her name is the thing fairy tales are made of.
I used to be the one who saved her.
Over and over again.
But I don’t want to save her anymore.
I just want to pretend the lies are still the truth.

My Review…

What a welcome back to the world of Pucked and All In!  The next generation of characters in a wonderful world that Ms. Hunting has created!

This is Lavender and Kodiak’s story. This not a hearts and flowers story, this is a story full of heart-wrenching moments and the fight to keep the people you love safe and whole.

Lavender has grown up and even though she still has some issues from her past that she continues to work on, she has grown into an amazing young woman with hopes and dreams and even when her family tries to smother her in love and protection, she fights her way to be free and independent.  I applaud and empathize with her fight.  She reminds me of someone very close to me and Ms. Hunting created her realistically and beautifully.

Kodiak has fought and continues to fight his own demons.  He has grown up with Lavender and they form a bond that is scary in its intensity. He only wants what is best for her and he feels he is not what is best.

This story is going to grab your heart from the get-go and not let you go until Ms. Hunting is good and ready to do so. 

I loved that past characters make appearances, but doesn’t distract us from the main theme of the story.  

This is a fabulous introduction to a new generation of characters and I hope that we get to see more of them in future stories!

BLURB:

“Did you have relations with my brother . . .”

Good question.

I’d like to preface this by saying it was never my intention to ever get involved in a workplace romance, let alone get involved with the most surly, agitating, and pompous man I’ve ever met who just so happens to be my new friend’s brother.

My intentions were to show students how English and reading books could actually be fun and make a new life for myself in the suburbs of Chicago.

But so far, I’ve managed to be called into the principal’s office.

Coerced into participating in the teacher’s badminton league.

And instigated into passionate fights with Arlo Turner over education and decorum while losing my underwear at the same time.

Known as Mr. Turns Me On, he’s the reason I might get fired from my first ever teaching job.

PROLOGUE:

**GREER**

“Before we get started, I’ve been told I need to ask you a question.” Stella sits cross-legged in front of me, a nervous look on her face, water in hand.

“Oh?” I ask, trying to act casual as I bring my glass of red wine to my lips. I have a scary inkling what this might be about.

She glances over at Coraline and winces. “Uh, I feel weird asking.”

Oh God . . . I was right.

Shifting, I say, “You know, we don’t have to—”

“Then why bring it up if you’re not going to propose your query?” Keiko asks impatiently while pushing her green-rimmed glasses up on her nose. “You know the frequency of these meetings is dependent upon staying within the comprehensive itinerary I composed during my lunchbreak.”

“Cool your bloomers, Keeks,” Coraline says while taking a large sip from her wine glass. “I want to know what’s making Stella so fidgety.”

The four founding members of the Ladies in Heat Book Club—aka my mismatched collection of friends—each bring diverse and unique character traits to our group.

Keiko “Keeks” Seymour—resident AP chemistry teacher at Forest Heights High School. Her social etiquette is lacking, her intelligence is off the charts, and she’d rather play with beakers than penises. She wasn’t thrilled about the book club name and made a noble attempt to explain why her suggestion, the Austen Empowerment Collaborative, was far more credible. Majority ruled, she lost.

Stella Garcia—Spanish teacher at Forest Heights and my co-coach. Currently single, makes the best tamales I’ve ever had, and is one stamp away from getting a free donut at Frankie Donuts. Can be shy at times, but when it comes to her family and friends, she doesn’t take shit from anyone. Loyal to the core, one of the reasons I adore her.

Coraline “Cora” Turner—recent divorcée and living with her brother, Arlo. Jobless at the moment and couldn’t care less about it since both she and Arlo have enough inheritance to last them a lifetime. Often annoyed by her older brother or annoying him, doesn’t partake in Twitter—says it’s a filthy pool of opinions, and is the first to offer up a bottle of wine.

Then there’s me . . .

Greer Gibson—twenty-four-year-old fresh to the teaching scene as Forest Heights’s new English teacher and women’s volleyball coach. I love running, have a penchant for a man in a cardigan, and can get a little noisy in the classroom while teaching. I currently share a classroom wall with Arlo Turner, Forest Heights most prestigious English teacher, and might have lost my underwear—

“Out with it, Stella,” Cora says, snapping at her.

“Please, so we can proceed,” Keeks says, straightening her notepad on her lap.

Stella looks me in the eyes and says, “Brock wants to know if there’s anything going on between you and Turner. Apparently, Turner won’t say a thing, but Brock thinks there’s some strong sexual tension building.”

Cora whips her head to me, her eyes wide. “Are you getting it on with my brother?”

Finger pointed in the air, Keeks leans in and says, “The proper term amongst company would be coitus.”
Rolling her eyes, Cora asks, “Did you have coitus with my brother?”

“You could also say intercourse if that amuses your jargon more,” Keeks adds. “Or copulating would be sufficient. But if you are inclined toward romantic terminology, since we are in the presence of the book club, you could say lovemaking or performing intimate acts. Although, given the circumstances of when coitus took place—in the work environment—I would deduce that your actions were performed carnally rather than with the interest of developing a devoted accord.”

“Good God, Keeks,” Cora says, irritated. “Who cares what it’s called? We just want to know if it happened.” Cora looks me in the eyes. “Did it?”

Did it . . .

Good question.

I’d like to preface this by saying it was never my intention to ever get involved in a workplace romance when I was hired at Forest Heights, let alone get involved with the most surly, agitating, and pompous man I’ve ever met.

My intentions were to show students how English and reading books could actually be fun, bring the volleyball team to a state championship, and make a new life for myself in the suburbs of Chicago.

But so far, I’ve managed to be called into the principal’s office.

Infiltrate the teachers’ athletic league.

And had passionate fights with Arlo Turner over education, decorum, and student-teacher friendships.
Not to mention I’ve lost my panties to him in my dreams more than I care to admit.

Why did this all happen?

Simple.

The man dresses in a cardigan, that’s how.

Arlo Turner. The bane of my existence, annoyance to my sanity, and the only man who’s ever made me want to spread my legs in a classroom.

He’s torn down my metaphorical walls, strapped on a cottony cardigan—pushed up the sleeves—and has driven me to the brink of insanity, so now whenever I hear the mention of his name, my legs automatically spread, and my heartrate picks up.

Known as Mr. Turns Me On, he’s the reason my star athlete is struggling to keep her grades up.

He’s the reason I tend to avoid the teacher breakroom.

And he’s the reason I might get fired from my first ever teaching job.

My Review…

Yes, yes all the yeses! This new story by Meghan Quinn is another feather in her literary cap!

This is a book lovers’ romance! This story of Greer and Arlo is like a new take on the classic literature that I love!

Even though the hatred and disagreements, you could see something brewing between them.  A thin line between love and hate indeed!

Greer was an amazing character! She was brave, she was caring and she wasn’t willing to settle for less than what she wanted.

Arlo, well this fella I wanted to hate when I first started reading.  He was so arrogant and uptight and he clashed with Greer hard!  But when he decided to go all-in…Holy hotness, this character turned the swoons up to an eleven!

To see past characters make appearances was just the cherry on top of this swoony sundae!

The mix of heart, heat and hilarity that Ms. Quinn puts into her words is nothing short of perfection.

I believed true love lasts forever…

Our story doesn’t end with the happily ever after. For Bruce and I it was just the beginning.

Marriage, the beginning of a life of happiness.

That was what everyone saw. However, that was nothing more than a mirage. 

The reflection of the sun on the desert sand. Our story was imperfect, just as we were.

Now, I wander lost in a world I don’t know, blurred between the shadows of routine and loneliness.

Despite that, I am determined to keep going. To find what they call happiness. Playing with pieces of my heart I’d never thought I would risk.

I’m looking for who I really am, when a man I never thought I knew comes into my life, making me smile again. Helping me to believe again.

He shows me, for once, I can be myself and be happy. 

And perhaps, we can be happy together, beyond our forever.

 

 

Author, wife, and mother of a girl and a puppy. I love the happily ever after. Believer & dreamer. I live in my own world, sipping Ginger Ale and lime. I’m always plotting my next book, coloring pages, and reading.

My Review…

Full of heart-melting moments, this new story by Susana Mohel will give you all the feels.

This is a story that starts at the end and ends with a beautiful new beginning.  This is the story of what a marriage is really about.  It’s not hearts and rainbows every day, it takes work, every day to keep the fires burning.  “Acta non verba” Actions not words it the main premise of this story.

This is about the Leighton family, from the outside, it’s a picture-perfect family.  Bruce and Ilythia (love the name) are soul mates, they are each other’s worlds. That is until forces and complacency start to eat away at the solid foundation that they have built.

I could so empathize with Ilythia’s plight, to feel like she was losing herself in the roles she plays, mother, wife, but what she needs still is to feel like a woman.  A woman with a sense of purpose and goals and she felt like she lost that along the way.

Bruce is trying hard to give his wife what he feels she needs.  But it gets lost in translation.

It was a beautiful story full of poignant moments and a faith in true love and a soul mate.  Well done, Susana! I am so happy to be a part of this journey with you!
