The uncatchable stray snuck on the patio where I was waitressing and knocked me straight into Lee Powell's lap.
My fist slammed into his junk.
Then I accidentally flipped his breakfast platter onto his pants.
I thought it couldn't get any worse, but when I bring my brother to baseball practice, I discover his new coach is none other than Lee, owner and founder of Powell Dog Sanctuary, and he's not happy to see me.
I try to keep my distance from the hottest grump I've ever seen and ignore what it felt like curled against his broad, muscled chest.
But a bad case of the flu changes everything.
He stumbles on to my biggest secret and reveals a few of his own. He can't seem to stay away from me. He says he's too old for me, but I couldn't care less when he makes me feel cherished.
But then his past raises its ugly head, and he breaks our connection in a moment of suspicion.
Lee's afraid of being hurt again, but I'm the one left abandoned.

There's only one thing worse than your fiancé dying...
I never knew promises were made. Then broken.
And I surely never expected those promises to be about me.
When I return to my hometown and see his face, the heartache I've been running from is front and center. But it becomes harder and harder to keep hating the man who looks exactly like the man I loved.
Regardless of where you start your Samantha Christy journey, you can count on three things: Every book feels REAL (you'll see bits of yourself in each heroine.) Every story has PAIN (because what's a good romance without it?) And all her heroines find LOVE (because true romances have an HEA.)
Real. Painful. Love.
Samantha enjoys life as a full-time author under the warm Florida sun with her husband and four children.

I honestly cant tell you why it took me so long to read this book, I loved the last 2 in the series and I adore the whole college sports theme and the authors writing style is perfect so why has this sat on my TBR gathering dust? My brain annoys me sometimes.
Anyway I absolutely adored this book. Sadie was a little much at times but as someone who is often pulled up for her dark sense of humour and sarcasm I could relate to her. And even when she acted like a right bellend she was quick to acknowledge her over reaction and apologise so I grew to like her. Danny was just book boyfriend goals. Honestly I couldn't get enough of him.
And now I am dying to watch the next book in the series gather dust on my TBR until the preorder drops on my kindle in October.
It was supposed to be one fake date…
When sexy-as-sin Harper Henderson launches profanities into the night sky from the balcony below mine, I’m forced to intervene. I may be a professional hockey player with a playboy reputation, but I’m also a good guy. Charming and affable with unrivaled cheekbones and a lack of serious commitments (save for hockey),
I make an impressive plus-one.
Volunteering to be Harper’s date to her dreaded ten-year high school reunion is easy.
Pretending not to fall for her when our innocent kisses turn passionate is a little more challenging.
But when Harper returns the fake date favor and accompanies me to my parents’ anniversary party, everything changes. She garners my dad’s respect and effortlessly mingles with my childhood friends. She eases the familial pressure I drown under and makes me crave the things I used to laugh off.
Tangling up with Harper was supposed to be a fun way to pass the summer. So, why does it feel like she’s the real prize? The elusive, fleeting kind of real I’ve avoided for years?
And how can I prove that this playboy wants a different kind of reward?
One that sounds a lot like commitment…

THE C AGREEMENT
by R.L. Kenderson
RELEASES: October 26th
I was the girl next door…with a few extra pounds. My job was demanding and kept me on my toes, but when I was deep in a case, it left me little time for relationships. And because of that, I had some complaints in the bedroom.
What I wanted was for someone to teach me to be a better lover. I needed someone I trusted with my body without the fear of falling in love and someone who wasn’t looking for anything more than sex. And I needed a man who knew how to use his body.
That was where Cade Nichols came in. He was my older brother’s best friend and anti-commitment. And my brother just challenged him to sleep with only one woman for two months. So, I offered to help Cade win that bet. As long as he helped me learn my way around a cock.
What I didn’t bet on was life not going as planned.

Meet R.L. Kenderson!
R.L. Kenderson is two best friends writing under one name.
Renae has always loved reading, and in third grade, she wrote her first poem where she learned she might have a knack for this writing thing. Lara remembers sneaking her grandmother’s Harlequin novels when she was probably too young to be reading them, and since then, she knew she wanted to write her own.
When they met in college, they bonded over their love of reading and the TV show Charmed. What really spiced up their friendship was when Lara introduced Renae to romance novels. When they discovered their first vampire romance, they knew there would always be a special place in their hearts for paranormal romance. After being unable to find certain storylines and characteristics they wanted to read about in the hundreds of books they consumed, they decided to write their own.
One lives in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and the other in the Kansas City area where they both work in the medical field during the day and they’re a sexy author by night. They communicate through phone, email, and whole lot of messaging.

Hosted By:
When I met Alec Hayes in Vegas, I thought I'd stumbled into a love affair with the man of my dreams. Alec's sexy, confident, and charming. Our night together was full of laughter and the kind of toe-curling kisses that tempted me to believe in fate for the first time in years.
Until I flew out to LA to surprise Alec and ran into the unnamed half-brother he'd admitted to despising.
But I know Oliver Rhett as soon as I see him.
Oliver's the reason I stopped believing in destiny. He was my first love and my first heartbreak. And now he's the reason I can't be with Alec.
It's not fair to give one man the scraps of my heart when Oliver would always be right there to remind me he still holds the rest.
But when Alec needs a favor, I can't turn my back on him. Even if it means falling a little more for his gentle charm every day. Even if it means facing Oliver and remembering exactly how brazenly he stole my heart.
My plan is to walk away. I can't make this family feud worse. But I didn't realize just how hard a broken heart can fall.

So, I absolutely love love love Lexi Ryan's writing and her Orchid Valley series
has been awesome, but it's been soooo long between books. I honestly can't
remember anything about the previous books, and I didn't read the blurb for
this before I jumped in. Or any reviews or literally have any clue what I was
getting into.
In
fact, I picked it up this morning to read for a minute while the kids were
playing nicely, and I've only just surfaced. I mean honestly, I am just
speechless. I literally can't tell you a thing about the story because I loved
that it kept me guessing. And the angst was just so perfectly balanced that I
have no words.
I
honestly feel like October is starting off as an absolutely blessed month for
books. Everything I've picked up has been great. And this is just the absolute
perfect example of what an amazingly talented author Lexi Ryan is. Just gah!
How am I supposed to sleep now?
Snowed In with the Player by Rebecca Jenshak is now live!
It was supposed to be a weekend of holiday cheer.
Just me and my twin sister, watching Christmas movies and baking cookies.
My brother was absolutely not supposed to show up with half the football team.
Including Teddy. My brother's best friend and my secret crush.
I'm the shy sister. The one with her nose stuck in a book and quoting every word of Elf, not the one getting attention from guys like Teddy.
He's cool and smart and so handsome I could die.
The only thing that could make things worse is if I got snowed in with him.
Alone.

Ok
so that has completely put me in the mood for Christmas and it's October. I
literally put the book down for a minute and google searched Christmas villages
and real trees. Before I had to pick it up and find out what was going to
happen next.
This
book was super cute. Classic best friends’ sister with a complete holiday theme
that just made me want to not put it down. I read the whole book wishing I
could accompany it with eggnog and Christmas movies in the background.
Holly
and Teddy were both really sweet and low maintenance and really relatable. I
enjoyed their story, but I have to admit I'm really looking forward to the next
one even more. Because that small taste was enough to have me dying to get my
hands on the book and hopefully, we get to see more of Holly and Teddy too.
Then as we saw things from Andy and Jane's point of view, I felt like I was part of the inside joke. Throw in the background story and I was so invested in these guys getting together. Even more so as everything Andy had been through came to light.
Because as broken as Andy was once he decided to pursue Jane, he gave the best boyfriend. Like serious #BoyfriendGoals. And watching how hard he worked to be everything he felt Jane deserved while waiting for the other shoe to drop had me sitting on the edge of my chair.
I couldn't put the book down. It had so much sweetness and hotness and drama and I had to know what was going to happen next and how certain things were going to play out or come to light. The story and characters were awesome, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

I can't even tell you why I decided to read this book now. I was on audible buying another book that I have had on my KU forever and this one popped up as recommended. But I ignored it and grabbed the book I went on there for and 5 minutes in I couldn't handle the voices or get into the story so I went back and grabbed this and I am so happy I did. Michelle Hercules has a heap of books on my TBR but this is the first one I have read.
And it was perfect NA. I saw most of the twists coming but I was hanging on every word seeing how it was going to happen and how they were going to deal with the fall out from it. Both characters were likeable and had great development and I loved the banter and diversity of friends, family and hobbies. It made them feel very real and I couldn't put the book down. I'm 100% adding book 2 to the TBR mountain.
Scoring Chance by Teagan Hunter is now live!
Scoring on the ice? Piece of cake.
Scoring off it? Well, there's a reason I'm still a virgin.
I'm not entirely clueless with women, though I do tend to put my foot in my mouth around them far too often.
Like I did with Scout, the donut maker I stupidly introduced myself to despite visiting her truck for years.
Maybe my teammates have a reason to call me the dumb one, but I'm determined to prove them all wrong—Scout included.
I want to be her friend. Want her to see the real me.
What I'm not expecting is to like her so much when we start spending time together...or want to kiss her so badly.
I'm the jock, and she's the bookworm.
On paper, we make no sense together.
But maybe I have a scoring chance with her after all.

Quarterback Sneak by Kandi Steiner is now live!
Quarterback Holden Moore can have any girl he wants.
Except me: the coach's daughter.
With piercing green eyes, herculean biceps, and irresistible dimples, Holden is the number one target for every girl on campus. But according to his teammates, football is the only love of his life.
He's their leader, their QB1 and team captain who is all business and no play.
But when I'm with him? Mr. Serious isn't serious at all. He loves to push my buttons, to pin me with those sexy eyes of his and tease me until I bite back.
I remind him I'm off limits.
He can't have me, and I don't want him—or anyone else, for that matter.
I'm here for one reason: to show my father I'm more than his greatest disappointment.
But when an old injury flares up and I'm forced to work with Holden every day as his athletic trainer, his attempts to get under my skin start becoming harder to resist.
We can't give in, no matter how much the air crackles between us when we're close.
I'm the coach's daughter, and if Holden Moore wants to go pro, he's got to play by daddy's rules.
Otherwise, he'll be off the team.
And he's not the only one with something to lose.

Meet Kandi
Kandi Steiner is an Amazon Top 5 bestselling author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tampa, FL. Best known for writing "emotional rollercoaster" stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you're a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she's your gal.
An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women's Studies. She started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her "freedom of press."
She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.
When Kandi isn't writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, planning her next adventure, or pole dancing (yes, you read that right). She enjoys live music, traveling, playing with her fur babies and soaking up the sweetness of life.
