Spirit possession. Dark magic. Childhood obsession turned irresistible passionate affair. How does a sweet girl from Louisiana get tangled into a web of horror and lies? Julien: I had the hard heart of a hustler. It was the only reason I had lived this long to tell my tale. The American dream was mine for the taking. My past would never be my future, and nothing would get in my way—or so I thought. Turquoise-eyed spirit--that’s what I called her. She had bewitched me the moment I laid eyes on her. But her curiosity in a world that she had no business tampering with was too much for me to handle. I warned her that it would only bring trouble, but she didn’t listen. What I wasn’t expecting was that trouble would find me in the most unexpected way. Giving her up would be the most difficult thing I had ever done, but it was my only option. Blossom: America’s sweetheart. As the innocent daughter of a Southern politician, this was the role that I had been groomed to assume. I was expected to fulfill the family legacy and marry a man I could hardly stand. But magic beckoned me—the type of magic that one should think twice before conjuring. Its pull was almost as strong as the dark and mysterious stranger that had crossed my perfectly straight path. He was everything that was missing from my life: excitement, danger, seduction. One kiss, and I was instantly his—until sinister forces threatened to tear him away from me. How could I survive without him? But then again, I wasn’t so sure I could survive staying with him. Now, my only saving grace was something that I couldn’t explain—that feeling that they call numinous.

HE'S GOING DOWN
An Enemies to Lovers Hot Romantic Comedy
A one-night stand goes wrong in this steamy and hilarious enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy!
It started as a normal birthday celebration.
Was there wine? Of course.
Did I let loose with my best friends? Absolutely.
Did I have one glass too many and follow a tattooed bad boy into a bar? Cue mortification.
I don’t do reckless, or wild nights of hot sex.
Correction: I didn’t used to. I also didn’t plan to drunk-email my boss and quit my soul-sucking job, leaving me in a financial mess.
But I'm churning those lemons into lemonade! I’m chasing my dream job handling wine at San Francisco’s hottest restaurant. But guess who shows up as my competition? None other than my tattooed bad decision.
Even worse, the mother-F-er smolders at me and says, “Six.”
Jimmy claims he gave me six orgasms, but I don’t remember our wild night, and I don't climax from oral. Pretty sure I’d recall if my body did the impossible and unraveled under his tongue.
I call him a liar. He calls me a challenge. I tell him this job is mine and he better watch out because he’s going down.
Which is exactly what he offers with that dirty mouth of his…

A Hot Opposites Attract Romantic Comedy
Opposites attract in the hilarious and hot romantic comedy United Indie Book Blog calls "a MUST READ!!!!!!"
Tripping into a gorgeous man when signing up at a Habitat for Humanity build should be a bonus, right?
Not when that hunk decides it would be fun to prank me.
To be fair, I’m not what I’d call "handy." I’m a genius at styling my clients, but manual labor isn’t my thing. Still, I’m determined to better myself by helping my community.
Then Owen too-hot-to-be-human Philips told to me to show up wearing hazmat-level gear.
He’s all apologetic now, being nice and sweet and hot. I’m ready to forgive and forget. And, if we’re being honest, I’m also ready to climb him like a freaking tree.
But I catch a man squeezing his fine behind.
Being the awkward soul I am, I flirt with all nearby straight men, hoping to break this unbearable attraction.
Except Owen looks…upset. Furious, even.
Turns out Owen isn’t gay, and holy heck can this man kiss. But I have the sneaky suspicion there’s a reason he took so long to ravish me, and secrets have a habit of dousing even the hottest flames…

Title: Painted Truths
Series: The Brotherhood #1
Author: Pamela O'Rourke
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 28, 2022
BLURB
One single night.
One perfect kiss.
One undeniable connection.
That's all it took for the most captivating man I've ever met to anchor himself within my soul.
Deeply enough that I can't help reliving our stolen moment in time over two years later.
So when my best friend offers me a job as his PA at his long-estranged brother's company, I'm floored to discover our boss is the same man from that night.
His older half-brother, reclusive billionaire CEO Henry DeMarco.
But he's aloof.
Cruel.
Wholly at odds with the man from my memories.
Not to mention, he's strictly off-limits!
On the outside, he has it all.
Power. Wealth.
And a face that has panties spontaneously combusting left, right and centre.
Men want to be him. Women want to be with him.
And he takes it all as his prerogative; consequences be damned.
Until his hard-won defences begin to shift in their foundations. Allowing me to glimpse beyond his harsh exterior, to peer intensely inside his hidden, hollowed heart.
Will I be able to find the truths that lay painted within?

Title: Acceptable Limits
Series: Everyday Famous #1
Author: Olivia Sinclair
Genre: Grumpy Billionaire Rock Star
Romantic Comedy
Release Date: July 28, 2022
BLURB
NOW I find out he’s a gazillionaire rock star — after I told him I hate his music…
Lilah
I can’t even manage an apology without needing to be rescued from the storm. By Todd, naturally (cue eye roll). But it can’t work out between us, can it? It’s not just the age gap. Failing coffee shop owners do not hook up with the likes of world famous lead singers hiding out in a small town — not long term, at any rate. And he says forever is the only thing he wants from me. But he’s just indulging his hero complex, right? He can’t really mean it…
Todd
Lilah’s smile is pure sunshine. I don’t give a rat’s ass what she thinks of the band’s music. Calling me ancient isn’t exactly reassuring, but I’m really more concerned about her risking life and limb simply because she didn’t know I was famous. Pretty clear to me she can’t fall down if she’s in my arms (or preferably in my bed). So that’s where I’m planning to keep her — safe, and all mine. That way, I might be marginally less grumpy from worrying about her. Think she’ll let me get away with that?
No surprise the rest of the band thinks it’s hilarious watching me sweat while failing miserably at corralling my girl or getting her to spend some of my money. That is, until a shadow from our past shows up that puts everything at risk. I appreciate their help, but you can tell them from me they need to go find their own women. No falling in love with Lilah.
Acceptable Limits is a steamy, small town, grumpy billionaire rock-star romcom (with an age gap, an HEA, and at least two kitchen sinks). Think you might recognize Todd? (unlike some people…) He first appeared in Challenging Burke. Once he found Lilah though, he insisted on interrupting that series for his own story, right back on quirky Embrace Island!

Title: The Rules of Dating
Authors: Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Cover Design: Sommer Stein, Perfect Pear Creative
Photographer: Julius Böcklin
Model: Mark Becher
Release Date: September 19, 2022
BLURB
It all started when I hosted a little party for a bunch of new friends.
Though “friends” might not be the right word since the invitees were all the women I’d found out my boyfriend was talking to behind my back. When the guest of honor walked in--aka my now ex—things took a turn…
Unfortunately, a stranger witnessed the whole blowout. I was in a mood that night and ended up giving this gorgeous guy an attitude, too. As if my night could get any worse, before he stormed off, he informed me he was actually my landlord.
Colby Lennon, along with three of his friends, owned the building where my tattoo shop was located. He and I were total opposites. He wore a tie, oozed confidence that came with years of women falling at his feet, and wasn’t afraid to say what he wanted, which lately--was me.
I hated that I found myself attracted to him. Especially since I was supposed to be on a self-imposed dating hiatus. Yet the two of us couldn’t seem to stay away from each other. We started hanging out, as friends. I even went as far as making rules for what he’d dubbed our “undates.”
But eventually, our explosive attraction became too much to bear, and we broke our resolve. I let my guard down and started to really fall for Colby.
Nothing could have prepared me for the ride he took me on. And I certainly wasn't prepared for where I'd wind up when the ride was over.
All good things must come to an end, right?
Except our ending was one I didn't see coming.

But Dante Luciano can use me all he likes...
Most people fight tooth and nail against unfairness. But my childhood was a masterclass in “life ain’t meant to be easy”, so I befriended acceptance a long time ago.
It’s part of the reason I can seize the moment, escape the inescapable (for now)...jump on a plane to New York and know the only way I’m coming back is in a box.

Slipping into his life (and his bed sheets) is as easy as breathing.
But Dante hates liars.
So he’s going to hate me.

Are you ready for the conclusion to A Sinfully Tempting Series? Mia and Jackson are waiting for you.
Can two childhood enemies stop bickering long enough to find their common ground?
Mia
When my ex dumped me, I went from the woman who had everything together to the girl re-organizing her brother's pantry.
I don't have a job or a place to live. Until my brother's irresponsible best friend gets a baby dropped in his lap, and he needs a nanny.
Guess who's a nanny? You guessed it. That's me.
Except, I can't stand my younger brother's immature player best friend. And if the current situation is any indication, he's as reckless as he was when he was fifteen and got my brother suspended from school. But he has a baby, and I'm a sucker for kids.
Jackson
What in the hell just happened? In less than fifteen minutes, I gained a daughter, and the woman I had a one-night stand with a year ago is on her way to the airport to fly to Vegas.
I don't know the first thing about raising a baby, but I'm not letting her go to Social Services.
When my best friend offers his sister up as a nanny, I would rather chew my arm off than accept her help.
Mia hates my guts, and I detest her condescending attitude, but there's someone else in my life now that matters more than I do.
Can close proximity and an adorable three-month-old help these two realize they're not the same kids they were in school?

Maddie
I’ll admit it: I knew exactly who he was when I walked into The Oak that night.
I probably should have just left him alone. But I was bored. And he’s gorgeous, just like his brother. How was I supposed to resist?
The kiss we shared was scorching hot. But it was nothing compared to the intensity of his anger when he realized who I was, and who I’m related to.
His hostility fuels me. His resistance makes me push harder. He made this into a game I’m determined to win.
Whether he likes it or not, I’ve officially set my sights on Dempsey Haas.
Dempsey
He called her Fourth Wheel. There was a familiarity between them that should have told me she was off limits. But there was just something about that girl.
Something familiar.
Something forbidden.
Something so damn tempting.
Her timing is impeccable. I’ve never felt more lonely or listless in my life.
I’m not looking for a relationship, or even a fling. Especially not with someone seven years younger who happens to be related to the two people my brother hates most.
But the way my entire body responded to her when she pushed me against that clock tower and kissed me? That’s a moment that’ll stay with me forever.
I had my fun. Now I have to lock it down.

Ramsey
I’m out of my depth participating in a blind-date photo shoot. Not only am I meant to act like I’m open for dating, but I’m meant to be sexy and get up close and personal with a complete stranger.
None of the above is me. But I’m a sucker, and my best friend can talk me into anything.
Deacon is the kind of guy my heart could be safe with. But I’ve been taking care of myself for a long time, and I’m not sure I’m ready to rely on anyone else. Not even the handsome, successful older brother of my best friend.
Deacon
I never saw her coming. One date with a beautiful stranger and I’m hooked.
Technically, Ramsey isn’t a stranger. She’s my little sister’s best friend, the same sister who volunteered me because she claims “I’m a workaholic in desperate need of love.”
All I know is I can’t stop thinking about Ramsey and the way her lips felt against mine. I have to see her again. Good thing I’m an attorney, because convincing her to take a chance on me is going to be the hardest case I’ve ever pleaded. She’s worried about the past repeating itself. What she’s yet to figure out is that her fear is unnecessary… never with me.
