Salvatore by Cecy Robson
Series: In Too Far
Published by Cecy Robson, LLC on March 13, 2019

Goodreads

Desperate men do desperate things . . .

Salvatore Romero is a dangerous man. If you've lived the life Sal has, rage is to be expected and maybe so is heart. After his father killed his mother in a jealous rage, Sal was left to raise his two younger brothers, becoming a parent long before he was ready.

Desperate for money to support his family, Sal sought help from his old friend, Vincent Maggiano, the son of New Jersey's top crime boss being groomed to take over his ailing father's empire.

Sal never planned to join the mob. He also never planned to fall for his brother's sweet and ultra conservative counselor, Adrianna Daniels.

Aedry isn't the type of girl Sal is usually drawn to. Her skirts are longer, her hair is tamer, and her heels aren't clear. But he can't deny the attraction he feels. And Salvatore's dark, sexy, and dangerous persona is the exact opposite of the clean-cut business men who usually catch Aedry's attention.

Neither planned on a life of crime nor did they plan on love. But now, both are in too far.

An emotional journey of danger, lust and underlying goodness! It’s a mob story … but a mobster who doesn’t want to be what he’s having to be. He’s a good guy at heart even though he’s getting more and more dangerous and powerful all the time. He knows too much and even though he only got into this world as a way to keep his family together, there’s no way out and soon he’s going to have to go all in. Meeting Aedry shows him a goodness he isn’t sure he ever even knew was out there. He shouldn’t want her, but he can’t resist the draw … and keeping these secrets from her is going to come back to bite him … but he’s hoping to figure a way out before that happens. Some more development could have been used here and there in order to paint a more complete picture, but it kept me reaching for that happily ever after until the end. Enjoyed it!

It was never Salvatore Romero’s intention to join the mob and live on the other side of the law, but the hard knocks of life were at his door sooner than he ever expected, leaving him to do what he had to do. He’s not like them, but he sees it all and he plays the game he has to play. Anything in order to keep his little brothers with him … anything!

High school guidance counselor Adrianna Daniels has no idea what she’s getting herself into when she knocks on the door of a troubled student’s home. Never in her wildest dreams did she think she’d be faced with a half-asleep, sexy as all get-out hunk of a man who made her knees tremble at just the sight. He’s power and lust, she’s inexperienced goodness … and together, they might be magical!

To win, you have to play the game...

Rising hockey star Nate Calloway has overcome a lot to get where he is. Playing professional hockey for the Las Vegas Sidewinders, he plans to keep his head down and do the one thing he’s good at: hockey. Everything is going according to plan until a gorgeous, spunky journalist falls into his lap. He might be a pro, but off the ice his lack of experience with women has him struggling to make the right move.

Fresh out of college, Chelsea Baldwin has landed her dream job working for a local newspaper and her big break comes much sooner than expected. Finding herself in the locker room of a professional hockey team is a long way from city council meetings and traffic reports, but falling for one of the players—literally—wasn’t how she’d planned to start her career.

A pro hockey player and a sports reporter shouldn’t be dating, but undeniable chemistry has them drawn to together, despite the consequences. When the stakes rise, their trust in each other is tested both in and out of the locker room. But this is one game they're determined to win...even if they have to make up their own rules.

More than just a hockey story! With the next book in her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat Mizera brings us the story of a sexually inexperienced hockey player and the sports reporter he shouldn’t be getting involved with. They have a lot to overcome in order to be together, but the way they are feeling about each other, they think t’s all going to be worth it. Very relatable characters, a well-developed storyline and an emotional journey towards healing two hearts. WARNING: May contain triggers.

Hockey player Nate Calloway has worked his way up to the pros with a lot of hard work, dedication and skill. He’ll admit to being scared out of his mind when he steps out onto the ice that first game, but it all became worth it when the joy of the game put his mind at ease … and having a beautiful woman fall into his lap as soon as he hits the locker room just tops the night off!

Rookie reporter Chelsea Baldwin might have lucked into an actual journalism job when she recently graduated college, but it’s a crappy one, and she gets thrown into things she’s not familiar with all the time. Like a pro hockey locker room! She doesn’t know what she’s doing and Nate isn’t sure what to make of his sudden attraction to her, but together the sparks fly and all doesn’t seem so bad anymore.

Nate by Kat Mizera is available now!
This hockey standalone will leave you melting!

About the Author:
Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she’s called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She’s never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she’d probably choose the west coast.
Kat’s a typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max). When she’s not writing, she’s either scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) – traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible. She hopes to retire there one day so she can spend her days writing books on the beach.
Kat has been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article–a review of a rock concert–for $10 in 1985. Since then she’s been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.
As you can guess from her series, the Las Vegas Sidewinders, Kat loves hockey. She is also a freelance hockey writer, covering her favorite team, the Florida Panthers, and any other teams that have an interesting story. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There’s something enticing about hockey players and romance…

Marine Force Recon by Elle James
Series: Declan’s Defenders #2
Published by Harlequin Intrigue on April 1, 2019
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

Wrong place, wrong time.

Right man for the job.

Declan O’Neill’s US Marines career is over, but nothing can stop him from saving lives. When he starts an organization that aims to help people who can’t defend themselves, his first client is a woman desperate for answers. Grace Lawrence knows something happened to her roommate, and she’s certain she can trust Declan to uncover the truth…though she wonders if she can trust herself with a soldier like Declan.

Breathtaking excitement from the start! A marine has been discharged from what he thought would be his life’s work because he chose to go with his conscience in a dicey mission and now he’s left with nothing … nothing but the instinct he would bet his life on when something starts going down directly in front of him on the streets of DC. He throws caution to the wind and makes a daring rescue while also instilling the safety of passersby. Elle James is starting us off with a thrilling escapade with the first book in her new DECLAN’S DEFENDERS series. It was fast-paced with just enough romance thrown in to satisfy that quest towards happily ever after. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to the next in the series!

Former Marine Declan O’Neill has just about hit rock bottom when he arrives in Washington DC. He’s setting out to spend a few days seeing the sights of DC while he decides what to do with himself when all of a sudden he finds himself thrust into the middle of a hostage situation. He lets himself fall back on instinct and ends up rescuing the high powered victim who in turn sets him up with a new job!

Grace Lawrence is one of the bystanders that Declan protected as panic ensued in the street. She wouldn’t be standing right now if it wasn’t for him, so she’s happy to be able to reconnect and thank him for his help. She isn’t expecting to be indebted to him again, but that’s exactly what happens when she discovers her roommate hasn’t made it home and appears to be missing among some shady dealings.

The Winter of My Love by J. L. Lora
Series: A Love for All Seasons #2
Published by LARIMAR PRESS on March 15, 2019
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

Spencer Grayson’s structured world is collapsing. The surrogate he hired to carry his and his late wife’s child has gone missing and the wrong woman is inseminated. There weren’t supposed to be loose ends in this transaction, but it’s turning into a zero-sum game he can’t afford to lose.

Artist Winter Alexander has painted a perfect picture for her life. But when a routine procedure results in an accidental pregnancy, the realistic portrait she painted turns surreal. It’s an error she can't brush away with a tube of titanium-white, no matter how much she might want to. Especially not when the Grayson is determined she become his substitute surrogate.

To Grayson, Winter is an abstract piece, a collection of soulful shapes and swirls he’s hopelessly mesmerized by. One he wouldn’t have envisioned in his life before. Winter finds Grayson controlling at first, but beneath those cold eyes lies a longing, a torch of desire and vulnerability that makes her agree to things she’d never considered.

They embark on a 40-week journey in the name of a child, navigating through a sea of self-doubt, conflicting emotions and rising feelings. When these nine months are over, will Grayson be able to convince Winter to make him and the baby part of her picture-perfect landscape? What happens next is something neither of them sees coming.

Excitement from start to finish! When a mix-up occurs at a clinic, the wrong woman ends up pregnant and there’s a whole slew of mystery surrounding the low-down of who was up to no good and why. Overall I enjoyed the story and felt connected to the characters and their outcome. They were well developed and intriguing. The story seemed a tad long and I felt could have been tightened up a bit to not be drawn out so much, and I admit to being irritated that there was no mention of Grayson or Gray being his nickname, yet that was all he was ever called after the introduction and I kept wondering if I was mistaken and it was his first name.

When teacher Winter Alexander goes in to the doctor for a routine procedure, she never expects her life to be irrevocably changed. Now a high-powered man is turning her world upside down with the information he tells her. A sliver of her worst nightmare is coming to life!

Spencer Grayson can’t believe what is happening. His planned surrogate has disappeared, and a stranger has been implanted with his and his late wife’s baby. Heads are going to roll, but first he has to plead his case with this head-strong woman as to why she should agree to carry his baby to term. Before they know it, they are knee deep in attraction for each other, and the mystery of who knew what and why.

My love wand is on a strike.

As bad as that blows, pun unintended, it’s ten times worse for me. I’m a male escort, but not just any escort, I’m the escort. The one with a mile-long waiting list and a pristine reputation that’s very well-deserved.

Only now, I’m on hiatus. Because after years of pleasing women all over the city, my man missile decides to get finicky. And the only woman he wants? Someone I can never have—my best friend’s younger sister, the nerdy and awkwardly adorable Sienna.

She’s working at the agency this summer, keeping me organized, handling paperwork, and most importantly, keeping me on track to finish writing my book about sex and intimacy, which is due to my publisher in thirty days.

She thinks I hate her, that I don’t want her here. The truth is much more twisted. I get hard every time she walks into my office. Her wide blue eyes and pouty mouth drive me wild with desire, and if she stays, I’m not sure how much longer I can stay away from her.

Little Miss Overachiever says she’s here to help? Fine. I’m going to put her nerdy, curvy tush to work.

Thrilling us with her signature sass, humor and happily ever afters, Kendall Ryan takes us once again into the life of male escorts! We met Case in the first book in this series and knew he was going to make for an interesting hero one day … and that day has come! He’s living life one day at a time enjoying what he’s built with hard work, determination and sure, his sexy body helped. When his best friend wants him to hire his sister to help on the admin side of the business, he’s reluctant, but he’d do just about anything for a friend … so in walks Sienna. Young, tempting and the only thing to make his body stir in awhile. Fun, fast-paced and oh so yummy. Really enjoyed it!

Escort Case Smith is stressed out more than ever before. He’s supposed to be writing a book on his sexual prowess that’s due to his editor in a month and he has absolutely nothing to show for it. The part of his body that has made him such a success over the years is all of a sudden refusing to perform, and then the traitor stands at attention when the one woman he can’t have walks through his door!

Sienna Johnson is fresh out of college and doesn’t have a clue what she wants to do with her life. She’s hesitant when her escort brother Ryder drags her in to help his boss out with paperwork for the summer, but she’ll give anything a try. Her chemistry with Case makes for a good environment in helping him crank out the words for his book deadline, but the attraction that keeps drawing them towards each other is going to get them into trouble if her brother finds out!

A hot new brother’s best friend standalone romance from New York Times best selling author Kendall Ryan is live available everywhere.

Goodreads

Meet the Wynns—a hockey dynasty built on family, money, and drama.

After an injury forced Théo Wynn to give up professional hockey, he turned to his second love: numbers. Now, as the general manager of his grandfather’s NHL team, the Los Angeles Condors, Théo is dying to prove to the rest of his family—especially the brother who betrayed him—that he’s just as successful as the rest of them. If only Théo had a gorgeous woman on his arm to complete the picture. . . .

Lacey Olson needs to get out of Las Vegas right now, thanks to her no-good, crooked brother. When a handsome stranger who’s out partying with friends comes to her rescue in the cocktail lounge where she works, they strike up a conversation that leads to a crazy plan: her leaving with Théo for L.A. tomorrow. A few drinks later, the idea gets even crazier: a quickie marriage that works for both of them.

But back in California, Lacey immediately turns Théo’s precise, well-ordered life into one big beach party. And before long, she’s tempting him with her smart mouth, sexy body, and sunny charm. The last thing Théo needs is a real relationship to distract him. Because he only plays to win. . . .

With lots of drama, Kelly Jamieson kicks off a brand new hockey family saga with her latest release PLAY TO WIN. The characters are fairly well developed, and though we have a lot of family to get familiar with, the key players are drawn forward slightly in order to make several of the family members background until their time to shine comes up later. I loved Theo & Lacey’s story and look forward to getting to know JP in the next book in the series!

Las Vegas cocktail waitress Lacey Olson finds herself in need of a rescue from some very bad guys her brother is mixed up with. She just so happens to be serving a group of sexy hockey players when it all goes down and one steps forward to defend her honor. Before the night is over, they agree she’s coming with him to L.A. tomorrow … oh and they get married!

Theo Wynn might be an offspring of the famous Wynn hockey family, but his playing days are over thanks to an injury and he’s just trying to find some other way to fit in. He’s had some success in Vegas, and now his grandfather is handing over some of the reins in order to make him the GM of the Los Angelas Condors, but he’s going to have to buckle down and work hard to achieve the success he needs. Too bad he has a sexy bombshell of a temporary wife distracting him from work, but she’s a great support system when he has to walk into that dreaded family dinner that holds his former best friend brother cozied up to the girlfriend he stole out from under Theo!

He only plays to win…

“We play by my rules now.”
—Kit, the new boss

Who does Kit Walker think he is? The trust-fund heir waltzes in and wants to boss me around, but if I catch him misbehaving, his father will yank his inheritance. Stalemate, right? Not when our chemistry is irresistible! Ironically, we run the top dating app. Could this be my “perfect match”…or the perfect scandal?
—Alexandra, the one in charge

Confidant characters, steamy attraction and secret liaisons make for a delectable read from Katy Evans as she makes her debut in the Harlequin Desire line! It didn’t take me long to fall under the spell of their story and I thoroughly enjoyed watching them work towards their happily ever after!

Alexandra Croft loves her job of creating the hottest dating app around right now, but when the boss she adores announces he’s stepping down and his playboy, never held down a job in his life son is stepping in, she knows things are about to change.

Kit Walker is determined to show his dad that he can step into his shoes and things won’t fall apart. He knows he has Alex looking over his shoulder and resents it a bit, but when they sit down and decide to start fresh after their resentment of each other, the attraction that’s been flaring since day one comes back out in full force.

Proving her innocence…at all costs

The exciting second book of the To Serve and Seduce miniseries

Former Chicago cop Mingus Black is used to liars. So why does the PI believe a teacher who insists she’s being framed? Joanna Barnes is totally convincing…in more ways than one. The chemistry between Mingus and Joanna becomes perilously potent, but until he can find out who framed her for a heinous crime, everything they love hangs in the balance.

Strong characters, a compelling plot and just enough mystery to nab my attention and keep it throughout! The powerful Black family is once again center stage with the second book in the To Serve and Seduce series. When Simone’s best friend finds herself in need of some help, Simone calls out the big guns of her brothers the lawyer, PI and cop. Lots of mystery, sexy seduction and close knit family time. Really loved this story!

Former cop, turned PI Mingus Black is used to seeing the unsavory side of the world, but when his sister calls him in for help when her best friend finds herself being set-up to take the fall for something she would never do, he’s not sure what to make of the intriguing woman.

Teacher Joanna Barnes finds herself under attack and being vilified to the world before she can even catch her breath. She would never have done the things they are accusing her of, but someone has gone to a lot of trouble to make it look like she did. Who … and why? Will Mingus be able to clear her name before her entire career is down the drain? And the instant connection they had to each other is a dangerous game to be playing at this point in time … dare they take a chance on each other?

Worth Fighting For by Laura Kaye

Getting in deep has never felt this good...

Commercial diver Tara Hunter nearly lost everything in an accident that saw her medically discharged from the navy. With the help of the Warrior Fight Club, she’s fought hard to overcome her fears and get back in the water where she’s always felt most at home. At work, she’s tough, serious, and doesn’t tolerate distractions. Which is why finding her gorgeous one-night stand on her new dive team is such a problem.

Former navy deep-sea diver Jesse Anderson just can’t seem to stop making mistakes—the latest being the hot-as-hell night he’d spent with his new partner. This job is his second chance, and Jesse knows he shouldn’t mix business with pleasure. But spending every day with Tara’s smart mouth and sexy curves makes her so damn hard to resist.

Joining Tara’s wounded warrior MMA training program seems like the perfect way for Jesse to blow off steam—except now they’re getting in deep and taking each other down day and night. And even though it breaks all the rules, their inescapable attraction might just be the only thing truly worth fighting for.

A sexy connection right from the start! With the third venture into the Warrior Fight Club series, we’re getting the story of tough gal Tara and her hunky obsession Jesse. Their story was exciting from start to finish, and it was great to get to see some familiar faces again. Looking forward to more in the series.

Tara Hunter didn’t let a near death injury stop her. Yes, it might have forced her to leave her beloved Navy job, but she rallied and pushed herself at the Warrior Fight Club to work through the fear and anxiety she faced until she was able to make herself dive again. She’s coming back for her second season with the commercial dive team that has quickly become like family. On the eve of the start of the season, she happens upon a wickedly sexy stranger at her favorite bar.

Jesse Anderson put his twenty in with the Navy and has recently gotten out. He’s burnt out, stressed and facing a lot of guilt and what ifs. He’s hopeful this new diving job will be just what he needs to acclimate himself to civilian life again. If the welcome to town is anything to show, it could all work out just fine. Until he walks in for his first day and realizes his good time last night is part of his new dive team!
