Ambition was a curse.
A juicy promotion opportunity came up at work, and I wanted it.
The only problem? I had to take on a high-profile client to get it.
It didn’t help that he was a cocky professional athlete–and one of the hottest men I’d ever met.
He was also the type of client who would test my patience, making me question if a promotion was worth sacrificing my ideals—not to mention my pride.
I’d all but decided that the rumors about him were true.
Until the day I saw him as more than just another assignment and a way to achieve my goals.
He inched his way into my heart, and I wondered if I was holding onto a past that prevented me from being truly happy.
It turned out my past wasn’t the only obstacle we needed to overcome.

Title: The Treasure Hunt Hookup
Series: Hollywood Bachelors #3
Author: Lila Monroe
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Cinnamon Roll Hero/Fall Vibes
Release Date: October 30, 2023
BLURB
Join the hunt for love in this hot and hilarious rom-com with a black cat heroine, cinnamon roll hero, and all the pumpkin spice fall reading vibes! Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey, Ali Hazelwood, and Emily Henry.
Reeve Donovan is Hollywood’s hottest, most charmingly-stubborn director… and the last man I expected to find strolling down Main Street in my sleepy Blue Ridge hometown. Especially since last time I saw him, I was wearing (half) a slutty super-spy costume, and he was facedown in an Indiana Jones outfit, searching for my… buried treasure.
With his tongue.
Ahem.
It turns out, my steamy Halloween hookup wants to find the location of my Great-Grandpa Earl’s missing gold… along with everyone else. The Fortune family’s wayward fortune is the stuff of legends, but I always figured it was just that: fiction. Until Reeve and I stumble on a clue that jump-starts our quest… and makes us unlikely partners in our hunt for the gold.
Soon, we’re swept up in a wild race for the treasure, jostling with a reality TV crew, grumpy historians, and my idiot of an ex-husband (don’t ask). I’ve been burned in love before, and have zero intention of falling for this arrogant charmer… Except Reeve has other plans.
He wants me. I want the gold. And my burning loins want… another go-around with Indy’s whip. We’re both used to getting our own way, so what happens when that way leads straight to the bedroom? And can we outwit the other treasure hunters to claim the ultimate prize?
Find out in the hot and hilarious new romance from Lila Monroe!

Series: After Oscar #4
Authors: Lucy Lennox & Molly Maddox
Genre: MM Romance
Tropes: Fish Out of Water/Cowboy/Grumpy Sunshine
Release Date: October 24, 2023
BLURB
How in the world does a grumpy rancher end up falling for a rich dilettante?
Richard Dunning has it all: private school education, an exquisite designer wardrobe, a last name that ensures he’s invited to all the best parties, and a skincare regimen that’s to die for.
The only thing he doesn’t have is… well, a job. Or a home. Or money in the bank. Not since his dad cut him off.
So when his best frenemy approaches him with a bet—spend a month working as a cowhand on some godforsaken Wyoming ranch in exchange for his dream job—he’s a little too proud and a lot too desperate to say no.
But from the moment Richard and his rhinestone cowboy hat show up at the Silver Fork Ranch, nothing is as expected.
Not the beautiful vistas, not the terrifying horses, not the friendly people, not the epic quantities of cow manure, and definitely not Boone Hammond, the rugged rancher whose eyes are a little too intense, whose expectations are a little too high, and whose kisses are… a lot too tempting.
But when his month on the ranch comes to a close, Richard must choose: return to the safe, luxurious life he thought he wanted… or risk everything for the love he’s been IN SEARCH OF all along.

Syn
I went to Darlington Founders filled with hopes and dreams. What I found were three men from a past I didn’t want to remember. Tristan Amato, Hendrix Knight, and Constantine Ferreira. Three dark and possessive men who saw me as beautiful and not as the scarred, damaged, broken woman I had become.
After a decade of loneliness and feeling like I didn’t belong because of my scars, Tristan, Hendrix, and Constantine showed me what it was like to be desired. Wanted. Loved. They claimed me. Made me theirs. Protected me. And unknowingly thrust me back into the life I forced myself to forget ten years ago. A life filled with lies, manipulations, and betrayal.
But they weren’t the only ones keeping secrets.
As my past and my present collided, I was forced to make a difficult decision. One born from the fire and the knife that marked my body. One of vengeance for myself and for my parents.
Our enemies wanted Aoife Fitzpatrick? They got her. And they would regret ever bringing her back.
Beautiful Sinners is a full-length why choose romance with dark themes and possessive MMCs. It is book two in the Beautiful Sin series and ends with a cliffhanger. Recommended for mature readers. Please check Reader’s Note in the front matter of the book for potential TWs.

EXCERPT
“I’m not them. I can never be them.”
My voice chokes up. I will never be beautiful. My scars will never fade, and no amount of skin grafts or plastic surgery will make them go away. The man with the constellations on his neck ruined me.
Hendrix stalks closer until my back bumps up against the curved cabin wall, and he towers over me.
“Who will you never be?”
Our gazes meet, the magnetic pull of him too strong for me to resist, but all I see are unwanted images of him with…
“Serena.” I can’t hold his intense blue stare, so I lower my eyes to his chest. “Or every other woman you’ve been with.”
I saw enough on his IG feed to know he has a type. Blonde. Skinny. Gorgeous. Huge boobs.
Lean but powerfully muscled arms cage me in, and then Hendrix is right there in front of me. The curve of his ribcage cuts into my torso. Every exhale of his warm breath tickles my forehead and cheeks, stirring the small hairs that have curled around my face. I soak in his body heat. His smell. Him.
“Drop to your knees, baby, and I’ll show you exactly who my cock belongs to because it sure as shit isn’t the woman out there.”
Sinking to the floor, my body is already obeying before my brain catches up, and I snap out of it.
“I’m not going to suck your dick.”
But god help me, I want his cock in my mouth, fucking me deep until my throat is raw and I’m gagging on him. I want every filthy, depraved thing that he wants to do to me.
“Look at me.”
Another command that I’m hungry to obey, but I force myself to shake my head no.
He takes his hand from the wall and circles my neck, gripping tightly. I’m embarrassed at the moan I make and how moisture gathers between my legs at his indelicate touch. Why do I like it so much when he does that?
Keeping the pressure steady, Hendrix dips his head.
His deep voice rumbles when he tells me, “You have it all wrong, firefly. All those women were not you. Don’t you see that it’s always been you? I’ve been chasing your ghost for ten fucking years, trying to feel something. But I never did because the only time I ever felt anything real was when I was with you."

I’m her right now—that’s all I can ever be.
