THIS WILD HEART

Karla Sorensen

Release Date: February 7

Blurb:

Who forgets marrying a football player? Me, apparently. Turns out countless shots and a bad breakup lead to questionable decision making. But waking up in Vegas with a ring on my finger beside a hot, naked man is hard to ignore. I married Parker Wilder. Thanks to our quickie nuptials, I’ll get my inheritance, and he’ll get his family and their well-intentioned meddling off his back.

Forgetting the wedding was the easy part. Being married to him is a whole different story. Parker is too … everything. Chiseled by the gods good-looking. A heartbreaking kind of broody. The kind of man you know will wreck you for all others. Good thing this is all pretend. And oh, how we pretend. We pretend ourselves right into me ripping the clothes off his body. 

It’s all fun and fake marriage until the day he gets a knock on the door with the surprise of a lifetime. Until the bomb goes off and we’re left to pick up the pieces. Until the pretending stops and we’re left with only one question: was any of it real?

(Mississippi Smoke Series Book 3)

by Abbi Glines

Blurb:

Taking her was a means to an end. The task was to weed out the man who had stolen millions from us. He may have succeeded, but he’d pay with his life. Hiding from us was a grave error he’d regret soon enough because once he found out that we had taken the one thing he cared for as repayment- he’d show up. When a man had a weakness, it was foolish to make a mistake like this. He would come for her, and when he did, he wouldn’t walk away unscathed, nor would the sister he adored. 

This was my fault. I hadn’t seen his scheme. It was my mistake, so I had to fix it. However, it seemed the joke was on me. What I had thought would be an easy job proved more difficult than I’d imagined. I had underestimated the power of her big brown eyes, full lips, and sweet, sultry voice. Keeping my focus on torturing information from her- when what I really wanted to do was touch her, have her, own her- would not only be a painful obstacle but possibly my biggest failure. 

Except she hated the sight of me. 

But I couldn’t blame her. 

I’d walked out of her nightmares as her own personal monster.

THE BIG SKATE

Elise Faber

Release Date: December 26

I’ve sworn off love…until her.
The only problem? She can’t stand me.

Gorgeous, single mom Ivy wants absolutely nothing to do with me.

She thinks I’m a player—and maybe I am.

She thinks I don’t take anything seriously—and maybe I don’t.

She thinks I can never make her happy—but I’ve never been more focused on anything else. Not ever. Not even on hockey, and I live and breathe the sport.

She doesn’t understand that she’s become my reason for existing—

That if there’s any game in my life I’m willing to do anything to win…

It’s claiming her heart as mine.

I read the blurb for this book, and it was entirely what I was in the mood for. I couldn't wait to get my grabby hands on it. Then I read the first page and realised it was part of a series, and I haven't read the first two books 🤦‍♀️ Ordinarily I would just grab them and read them first but it's Christmas and my reading time has shrunk to the bare minimum. So, I pushed through my fomo and I'm glad I did.

This is the first book I've read from this author; despite having several on my TBR and now I'm going to have to add the rest of this series. Because honestly the secondary characters were awesome, and I can't wait to get to know them better. I love when there's a series around a friend group that I wish were real and I was apart of.

Knox and Ivy had off the chart’s chemistry from the first page. And we were given just enough background on Ivy to understand her reluctance but also to keep us guessing. Knox was the perfect hockey playing hero. And I loved that he loved Evie just as much. He was stepdad goals along with being book boyfriend goals.

I really enjoyed the story and even though I read it in sporadic bursts over several days it was interesting enough that every time I picked it back up, I could just jump right in. I can't wait to get my hands on the rest of the series.

From USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a Single Mom, Marriage Of Convenience, Hockey Romance.

You’d think a romance author would know better than to fall for her fake husband. It’s the oldest trope in the book . . . literally. But it turns out writing it and living it are two very different things.

The plan was enticing—marry hockey’s hottest player so I could receive my inheritance and give my daughters the life they deserve. I’m already a single mom at twenty-five—how hard could it be?

Well . . . the answer is harder than you think because Leo Sinclair is so much more than I bargained for. Six foot, four inches of toned muscle and golden skin wrapped around the most perfectly chiseled jaw and dangerously charming smile. I knew he’d be hard to resist . . . but it’s not just his looks that weaken my resolve.

It’s the way he wins over my daughters with ease.

The way he sees through my defenses and quiets my fears.

The way he says “my wife” like he means it.

Suddenly, this arrangement doesn’t feel so fake. And I’m no longer sure which of us is playing pretend.

But when love wasn’t part of the deal, will saying “I do” turn out to be his biggest regret—or mine?

I am so obsessed with Bella Matthews books it's bordering on a problem. The minute I could I stuck off to read a chapter or two before bed. Cue the book hitting me in the face around the 50% mark because I can't bring myself to put it down. Then I'm having to adult all day before I finally get to finish it. And now I'm miserable because I've finished it and have to wait for the next one.

I really love the whole marriage of convenience trope, and a single parent is just icing. Add in the fact this is part of a large sporting family dynamic and I really couldn't ask for more. There are so many amazing secondary characters and the very much loved first generation I really am in my happy place every time I pick one of these books up.

Addie and Leo were sizzling hot. And although their relationship progressed quickly it felt really natural and organic. The way Leo instantly took to Izzy and Lennox and loved them like his own had my ovaries exploding every time he loved on them. Then we got the whole growly, possessive “my wife” and sign me up for one please.

The book had all the spice, sweetness, romance and drama that I want to stay wrapped up in all things Kroydon Hills. So, I guess I'll just go back to not so patiently waiting for the next one.
