Blog Tour: A Wild Heart by Amie Knight

 

A Wild Heart, an all-new single mom second chance standalone romance full of heat and emotion from USA Today bestselling author Amie Knight, is available now!

I lost a huge piece of myself the day my husband was killed in action.
In the months that followed, I felt like my grief would swallow me whole.
My only solace was my daughter, whose bright light guided me through the darkest of times.

I never wanted to meet someone else.
I vowed to never fall in love again, especially with a marine.

It was supposed to be no strings attached and for a while it was.
But Weston Reeves’s grumpy soul called to my tortured one.
Maybe it was the midnight rides on his bike or the way that only I could make him smile.
He lit me up, set my body afire, and for the first time in five years made me feel alive.

Our relationship was probably the worst gamble I’d ever taken.
But my stupid, wild heart needed him, even if our love was destined to burn me to ashes.

Cover Reveal: Tempt by Melanie Harlow

 

TEMPT, an all-new steamy age gap, small town romance from USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling author Melanie Harlow is coming November 21st, and we have the smoking hot cover!

You’ve heard the story about the wedding planner who falls for the groom?
Well, this is the one where she falls for his father.
And that groom? He’s my ex.

I didn’t realize who the gruff, gorgeous older man was the night he rescued me from a creep in a Manhattan hotel bar. All I knew was that a hot, bearded stranger with a protective streak showed up right when I needed a reminder that real gentlemen still exist.

(Although he left his manners behind after asking me up to his room.)

It was the hottest night of my life, but I never thought I’d see the former Navy SEAL again.

Imagine my surprise at the rehearsal dinner one week later, when my sexy one-night stand is introduced as the father of the groom. Even more surprising? That temptation we felt in New York was no fluke.

In public, we pretend there’s nothing between us.

In private, we can’t keep our hands off each other.

The situation is beyond complicated. Zach never even knew he’d fathered a child until recently, and he wants to earn his son’s trust and respect. As for me, I’m looking for a man who wants to start a family, and Zach has made it clear he’s not that man. He’s fifteen years older, newly divorced, and he lives across the country.

But no matter how many times we draw the line, we keep crossing it.

Nothing so wrong should ever feel so right.

New Release Review: Stop Ghosting Me by Tara Sivec

 

Stop Ghosting Me by Tara Sivec
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Trick or Treat! I had zero doubt that author Tara Sivec would deliver a holiday romance full of absurdity and hilarity, and she certainly smashed that pumpkin! Stop Ghosting Me was a delight and I laughed out loud throughout. The antics of the crazy Tanner family and friends were hilarious perfection. Sivec's sense of humor is always spot-on for me!

New Release: Folk Around and Find Out

 

He needs to get her out of his system. Just once...

 

Folk Around and Find out, a small town, second chance contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling author Penny Reid is now available!

Hank Weller doesn’t help people. He leaves that do-gooder nonsense to his best friend, Beau Winston. Hank does what he wants, when he wants, with whomever he wants—and Hank does not want to hire Charlotte Mitchell to be an exotic dancer at his club, The Pink Pony. Sure, he can’t help noticing the dips and curves of her, how shrewd, smart, and funny she is, the fire in her hazel eyes. He's always noticed. She’d probably draw a crowd and entice the regulars. But after Charlotte's messy, public divorce made Hank’s club out to be the culprit—and made her the single mother of four kids—he doesn’t need or want any additional bad press courtesy of Charlotte Mitchell. Or the distraction. Unfortunately for him, the town’s prettiest charity case doesn’t seem to understand the meaning of the words nope, no, and never.

Charlotte Mitchell doesn’t much like Hank Weller. Once upon a time, she used to. Years ago, she liked him a whole heckofalot despite other folks in town labeling him as “eccentric” and “nonconformist,” which were polite southern alternatives to "filthy rich" and "self-centered douchebag." Her opinion of him changed dramatically after he volunteered to be her date to junior prom and then promptly stood her up. They haven't so much as acknowledged each other in over a decade. But a sudden family emergency means Charlotte needs access to Hank’s club ASAP. Unfortunately for her, the narcissistic fancy-pants doesn’t seem to understand the meaning of the words help, generosity, and compassion.

But he’s about to find himself schooled. Charlotte is going to teach Hank a lesson once and for all about basic human decency, whether he likes it or not.

Spoiler alert. . . he likes it. ;-)

New Release Review: Quarterback Sneak by Kandi Steiner

 

 

Holden Moore can have any girl he wants... except the coach's daughter.

 

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.

My review: 5 stars!

I am a sucker for a college football romance and Quarterback Sneak was so good! This was such a great take on grumpy/sunshine, with football player Holden being the sunshine and heroine Julep the grump. There's something about when the guy falls first and pursues the forbidden girl.... Holden was so swoony and I absolutely loved their story.

 

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.

New Release Audiobook Review: Two a Day by Lauren Blakely

 

Two a Day by Lauren Blakely
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I purchased the audiobook for Two a Day and I loved it so much- it made my evening walks fly by for the last few days! Drew and Brooke's meet cute was unique and so fun, and I'm always going to love when the main male character is a professional athlete- that's totally my favorite! Lauren Blakely novels always make me happy and put a smile on my face and every minute of this book was delightful. Rose Dioro and Jason Clarke did a fantastic job with the narration- they were perfectly cast.

New Release Review: Runaway Groomsman by Meghan Quinn

  

“He runs from the altar—and finds love in the place he least expects.”

RUNAWAY GROOMSMAN, a brand new, heartfelt romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn about new beginnings and finding the romanticized happily ever after in the most unlikely of places, is Now Available in all formats! Dive into this slow burn romance with “a healthy dose of humor and heart” (Library Journal). One-click your copy today!

https://mybook.to/RunawayGroomsman

 

About RUNAWAY GROOMSMAN:

Hollywood screenwriter Sawyer Walsh knows a good love story when he sees it. But when it comes to real life romance, he’s a mess. That’s how he finds himself standing at the altar…as his ex-girlfriend ties the knot with his very famous best friend. The pressure, the resentment, the media coverage—it’s all too much—and before he knows exactly what he’s doing, he’s making a run for it, leaving a shocked congregation and flashing cameras in his wake.

Needing to lie low amid the media fallout, Sawyer lands in the charming town of Canoodle, California, where he crosses paths with Fallon Long, who runs the Canoodle Cove Cabins, a family-owned business and Sawyer’s new short-term residence. Overwhelmed with renovations and her long list of responsibilities, Fallon is struggling to make ends meet while attempting to bring the cabins back to their original glory. So when Sawyer arrives, she is grateful for the income, but immediately writes him off as just another vapid Hollywood hack, until he begins to prove her wrong at every turn.

As Fallon comes closer to saving the family business, an undeniable bond forms between her and the handsome screenwriter. But the pressures of her family obligations and Sawyer’s notoriety might prove to be too much for anyone to handle. Could Canoodle be the setting for a new romance—or is true love just a Hollywood cliché?

Samantha Brentmoor and Alastair Haynesbridge narrate RUNAWAY GROOMSMAN, and their performances are stunning! Don’t miss this audiobook sure to tickle your ears and heat you up today! 

https://mybook.to/RunawayGroomsman

My review: 5 stars!

I felt an instant and deep connection to this story when heroine Fallon's grandfather Sully was introduced. That relationship and situation was so well done, I could give the book 5 stars just for that. (I have recently been on that same journey with a family member so it really hit home for me.) I found Fallon and our hero Sawyer's story to be so fun and their dialog was so darn funny and witty and I smiled so much. I also loved the connection Sawyer made with Sully and the projects they worked on together. Canoodle was such a neat setting and author Quinn always does a fantastic job with descriptions and neat aspects of small-town life, it all seemed so real. I am crossing my fingers for another book with this cast of characters!

New Release Review: A Little Too Late by Sarina Bowen

 

A Little Too Late by Sarina Bowen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Author Sarina Bowen has teamed up with Rebecca Yarros and Devney Perry for another exciting series- this one set at Madigan Mountain, a family ski resort. Bowen brings us Ava and Reed's second chance romance in this installment and it's absolutely fantastic. As Ava and Reed are reunited in the current day, interspersed chapters slowly share their history from 10 years ago with us. As angsty as the history was, Bowen always manages to insert hilarity and great side characters into her stories to perfectly balance the read. As a finance major, I really enjoyed the business aspect of the story as Ava and Reed try to sort through Reed's dad's plan to sell the resort. Ava and Reed's chemistry was smoking but their relationship was so much more than that. I am so looking forward to reading books 2 and 3 from Yarros and Perry because this trio of brothers is not to be missed. Narrated by fan favorites Sebastian York and Andi Arndt, the audiobook is simply fabulous.

New Release Review: The Secret Roommate by Sara Ney

 

The Secret Roommate by Sara Ney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars
I always know I am in for a treat when I start a Sara Ney book. Her sense of humor is always spot-on for me and I loved Duke and Posey's story. Duke is such a big clueless goofball with no filter or idea of how to interact with people, yet he can be so swoony at times that I didn't doubt for one second that sweet kindergarten teacher Posey could fall for him. The banter and nagging was a hoot and I laughed out loud quite a bit. Their chemistry was so well done! A fun, quick read that hit the spot.
