They pretended to be lovers.

But there’s nothing make-believe about the baby on the way.

When Joni Danielson recruits her best friend, Sweet Briar mayor Lex Devlin, to be her fake boyfriend for a wedding, it’s a no-brainer. But their staged kisses lead to real passion—and heartbreak when Lex pulls away. Now Joni’s in a bigger bind: she’s pregnant. Can she and Lex once again fake it till they make it—to a real relationship?

 

One night of temptation leads to more than they bargained for! With the next book in her Sweet Briar Sweethearts series, Kathy Douglass delights her reader with a return to Sweet Briar where small town living is personified. The characters are well-developed and intriguing, and the story line of an unexpected pregnancy between best friends is the shining star. Emotional, charming and oh so satisfying!

Joni Danielson had no idea that asking her best friend to pretend to be her boyfriend for a wedding she had to attend would turn their lives upside down. They’re back home and further apart than they’ve ever been because a few pretend kisses turned into real passion … passion he regretted the next morning. She’s keeping her distance and stewing in her hurt and anger … until she discovers she’s pregnant!

Mayor Lex Devlin adores Joni and just can’t understand why she’s so mad at him. Yes, he crossed a line he shouldn’t have, but shouldn’t they just be able to forget about it and continue their friendship? He’s tried love & marriage before and it just didn’t work out … but hearing they have a baby on the way has him wondering if he needs to give it another try.

ABOUT KATHY DOUGLASS

Kathy is a born reader who as a child always had her nose in a book. She went from reading Bobbsey Twins to romance novels. One day she stumbled upon The Shining by Stephen King and was hooked on horror. When she caught herself checking under the bed and looking in the closet for monsters, she knew it was time to put down the horror and return to romance novels.

Her return was short-lived. She started law school and soon her reading was limited to legal opinions. Then she discovered Harlequin romances. They were short enough to read in a week and she wouldn’t have to search her room before she went to sleep.

When her first child was born, she became a stay at home mom. Her second child soon followed, and reading was limited to children’s books.

All too soon her kids were attending pre-school. Kathy spent those hours renewing her relationship with romance novels. Soon she felt the urge to write the stories she wanted to read. In 2016, Kathy sold to Harlequin. Her first book, How to Steal the Lawman’s Heart, was released in February, 2017. Since then, she has released several more books with Harlequin.

From the best selling series, Something So comes the spin-off Series This is...

Zoe
When you grow up surrounded by hockey players you know one thing for sure, I was never going to settle down with one.

Heck, I didn’t even know what icing was. I was too busy climbing the corporate ladder, becoming one of the most successful realtors in New York City.

I wasn’t interested in dating or anything that got in my way.

First, he was my client and then he became my friend.

Viktor
My parents told me I skated before I walked.
When I was eighteen I was drafted into the N.H.L third overall, playing in Los Angeles—the city of dreams.
What more could I ask for? I played hard, but eventually, I partied even harder.

Five years later I was traded a week after I entered rehab.

There was no time for anything except my health and making sure I’d come out on top. I had to be better.
There wasn’t another option.

One of the rules of recovery was ‘don’t fall in love’ and I made it a top priority. She was off limits in every single way.

Until it was too late

One night, one decision, one act can derail everything.

When push comes to shove, I’m only certain that, This is Wild.

 

Gritty, emotional and raw! My first read by Natasha Madison did NOT disappoint! With a powerful story of recovery and redemption, we go along for the ride for a pro hockey player’s return to the game after crashing and burning in front of millions of people. He’s a good guy but doesn’t think much of himself … she’s sassy and self-assured and can easily see he’s top of the line. They vow to be friends, but the sexy looks and connected feelings continue to get the best of them at every social outing they attend. The characters and supporting cast were all really fun to get to know. They’re a close knit group of friends which brings an emotional depth to the dialogue that really strikes a chord with the reader. Really enjoyed Viktor’s story and look forward to more in the series!

Realtor Zoe Stone had no interest in slowing her rise to the top down to be bothered with mundane things like dating. She’s at the top of her game and nothing is going to get in her way … especially a hockey player!

Viktor Petrov is newly out of rehab and shocked that a team was even willing to pick him up for the season after the spectacle he made of himself at the end of the previous season. He has to buckle down and make sure he’s all in for this second chance … it has to be all about him and his health 24/7. Until he meets her … the sassy go-getter who vows she hates hockey. He’s so tempted by her that he can’t see straight. They agree to friend zone each other … but temptation is strong … oh so strong.

When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

I left here a man but came back a beast

CHANCE

A shoulder-fired missile broke my body.

But betrayal obliterated my heart.

For months I lingered in and out of hell until my body healed.

Now I’m back in town with my club brothers. But I am still fighting a war of darkness in my head and I can’t see a way out.

Then she comes to town like a summer breeze and makes me feel things I didn’t know existed.

She has the voice of an angel and the body of a goddess.

But she is running from her own demons. From the Devil himself.

He's coming to town.

But I've walked through hell and survived, and I'll walk through it again to protect her.

CASSIDY

I’ve spent years running from my past.

Town to town.

State to state.

Never putting down roots.

I wish I could but I can’t. Because I am running from the Devil and if he finds me, he will drag me down to hell again.

Then I meet a beautiful, scarred beast of man who makes me feel something for the first time in my life.

Hope.

He makes me want to stay but it’s impossible.

Because the Devil is coming and when he arrives I won't stand a chance.

Hell on Wheels is book four in the Kings of Mayhem MC series

Note: For mature audiences, ages18 and older. This book deals with sensitive topics that may be triggers for some readers.

 

Full of intrigue, emotion and blinding passion! With the next book in the Kings of Mayhem MC series, we get Chance’s story and man was it a great one! I was quickly drawn in to the drama of the story line and quick to turn page after page to see what was going to happen. The characters were emotionally gripping, both with complex backgrounds that added depth to the story. I have loved this entire series and hope this isn’t the last we will see of the Kings of Mayhem!

Chance Calley is back home in Destiny, but he’s a shell of the man he used to be. Badly injured physically, but even more scarred emotionally, he’s just going through the paces of getting out of bed day after day … until he meets a reason to come alive again.

Cassidy is running away from the devil himself. She’s lived a hard life from the start, but her life on the run is taking a toll and leaves her wishing she could shelter in the arms of the sexy biker who took an interest in her the moment he heard her sing. It doesn’t take long after meeting him for her to realize her cover has been blown and her past is on her tail with a vengeance. She’s ready to run, but Chance sets out to teach her that the Kings protect what’s theirs … and he’s ready to stake his claim!

The day I lost my best friend was the day I realized that I'd been living in the past. I've tried to find a way to heal, to mend that break. Somehow, I came through it partially whole. But I know I couldn't have done that without Aiden Connolly.

The problem is, he once loved my best friend. And now she's gone, and I refuse to be in that shadow, or worse, a replacement for someone we both loved.

~~

I left them all behind.

My brother.

My family.

My best friend.

And her.

Only Sienna Knight doesn't realize what she means to me. But before I can make sure she knows, I need to figure out exactly what that is.

 

Emotional and full of turmoil! With the third book in Carrie Ann Ryan’s Fractured Connections series, we get Sienna and Aiden’s story. They are both riddled with questions and guilt surrounding Allison’s death, and fighting their attraction to each other with every breath in their body. This story line has a powerful edge, yet the camaraderie of this close group of friends brings a light-hearted aspect to the dialogue as well. The back story is fairly well developed and while the hint of intrigue falls a bit flat, the human emotion is spot on and carries the story well. Really enjoying this entire series!

Sienna Knight is attempting to heal her broken heart over the loss of her best friend, but the emotional turmoil of it all has taken it’s toll. Being around Aiden is bittersweet. She needs him close to make herself feel like she’s coming full-circle in her emotional well-being, but she’s torn because he’s supposed to be forbidden.

Aiden Connolly is finally putting in an effort to heal the rift that has been festering in his family for years, and it’s bittersweet. He’s enjoying time with his brother’s more than he can say, but it’s putting into perspective for him that he has done a lot wrong in life and should have been there more. When an unexpected happening makes him admit how much Sienna means to him, life starts on a whole new type of roller coaster as they finally open their eyes and decide to let themselves live.

My name is Dax Monahan and hockey is my passion. And if you want to succeed in this sport you have to bust your ass 24/7. I’ve never had a hard time focusing on my career, but when my past comes knocking, no amount of training can prepare me for what lies on the other side of the door.

Regan Miles was always like a sister to me. When a shared tragedy brings us face to face after several years, I’m shocked to see just how much she’s changed. Gone is the shy, awkward little girl that always used to chase me and her brother around. Instead, I’m faced with a gorgeous woman who makes it damn hard to concentrate on anything but her.

Turns out, she’s in trouble, and the only way out is to get married.

I surprise myself when I tell her to marry me. Order her, actually. And most shocking of all, she doesn’t even hesitate before saying yes.

So it’s settled. We’re getting hitched and she’s moving to Arizona with me. All platonic, of course.

The catch?
I never knew I’d fall so hard for my best friend’s little sister.

 

The guys that Sawyer Bennett writes just keep getting better and better! We’re all in for this hot hockey stud, and then he turns around and melts our heart time and again … gotta love ’em! Dax isn’t shy about demanding that Regan let him take a huge burden off of her shoulders, and when attraction is quick to flare between them, it’s about to get real! Great characters, lots of sweet and sexy times and just a downright joy of a series to read. I’ve got my heart on my sleeve for Tacker’s story coming up next!!

Arizona Vengeance star Dax Monahan isn’t shy about getting what he wants in life. He has worked hard to achieve the hockey success he has, and he doesn’t hesitate to play hard as well. When he realizes Regan needs help, he’s quick to come up with a plan to get it for her … even if it requires him to hang up his bachelor shoes and marry her!

Regan Miles has had a hard couple of years. She’s trying to keep up with the motions as she copes with the loss of her brother, but it’s just the icing on the cake of a stressful time and Dax’s shoulder turns out to be too good to refuse when she needs an ear. She’s in a pickle and is grateful when he offers to marry her to get her the help she needs … but she’s not expecting it turn into more so hot and so fast!

Piper Mackenzie first sees him shirtless, standing in front of the military plane she was about to board, with one rather large wrench in his hand. The fact that he has the plane—the one that she’s about to be flying on for hours—in pieces only minutes before she’s set to take off on it doesn’t faze her. At least not until a flippant joke about dying in mid-air leaves his lips.

The second time she sees him, he’s helping her from the wreckage of her car. The wreckage that he helped cause.

The third, he’s laying across from her in the same bed, and there’s no denying what happened the night before.

The fourth, well that time would be the first of many. Being Mrs. Jonah Crew has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?

*****

Jonah Crew saw her for the first time as she stared at him in awe. It was snowing, the temp was in the negative degrees, and he couldn’t think about anything but her and the look of horror on her face when he tells a badly-timed joke.

The second time he sees her, his heart skips a beat, but not for the reason that one might think. Mainly, it’s due in part to the fact that his truck smashed into her car so hard that his chest hits the steering wheel and his heart decides to stop working right.

The third time, he’s fairly positive that he’s died and gone to heaven. At least, that’s what waking up next to a beautiful woman like her signifies, right?

The fourth? Well, he’s not quite sure how he got there, but he’s already said ‘I do’ so what’s a guy to do?

 

Addictive from start to finish! With the next book in her KPD Motorcycle Patrol series, Lani Lynn Vale once again wraps an unlikely pair around our hearts. The relationship is fast paced, but they’re not only adorable together, but sexy as all get out. Lots of heat, sass and humor steals the show and the hint of intrigue seals it all up into a great read!

Piper Mackenzie knows she’s not a good flyer, so the fact that she’s going it without meds on her way back home from her military stint in Germany is awfully brave of her. Or stupid, depending on how you look at it. Factoring in the shirtless hunk working on the plane making a poorly timed joke is just icing on the cake to further her freak out.

Texas cop Jonah Crew considers it a big coincidence when he finds out the woman he freaked out, who’s hand is now squeezing his to the point of cutting off feeling, is heading home to Kilgore as well. Fate seems to be shining down on them to keep throwing them together as the days pass and eventually their enjoyment of each other reaches an all time high … a drunken wedding in Vegas high!

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.

I’m kind of a lady, but definitely more of a weirdo.

Hearing the woman at the table behind him say that to her friend should’ve turned Logan Gibbs off.

It doesn’t. In all honesty, it only makes him listen harder.

He’s had enough weird in his life to last a lifetime. The last thing his complicated life needs is a woman in it who has no clue what color you get when you mix yellow and blue together.

Yet, her obvious blonde moments aren’t enough to deter him. Nor is her lack of finger-painting skills.

I’m a cop, not a miracle worker.

Hearing the man in the group behind her say that should’ve had Katy Roberts running away as fast as her feet would carry her. Katy’s father’s a cop, and it’s hard enough to live her life with Daddy trying to dictate her every move. She needs another cop in her life like she needs yet another thing to go wrong.

To add onto that, she can’t find a job, has no love life to speak of, and has to be the oldest known virgin in Kilgore, Texas.

Yet, when she sees his painting—a painting that resembles a piece of the male anatomy more than the lighthouse they were supposed to be painting—she knows that she has to give him a chance.

The very last thing the two of them expect is for her father and his boss to force them to marry after an eensy-weensy accident. An accident that, surprisingly, both of them want.

 

A fast paced, steamy, unputdownable read! Lots of familiar faces show up in the kick off of Lani Lynn Vale’s Kilgore Motorcycle Patrol series. The characters are quick to grab a reader’s attention, and though their relationship happens quickly, the connection between the two makes it feel believable. Lots of sass, a touch of suspense and a whole lot of yummy goodness! Looking forward to more in the series.

Police officer Logan Gibbs has a penchant for getting into trouble, so his newly appointed motorcycle patrol stint is kind of his last chance before he’s booted out the door by the boss who just doesn’t like him. If only he wasn’t accidentally lusting after the boss’s daughter to top it all off!

Katy Roberts is starting a new job and life is looking up until finding out that her maniac ex is soon going to be out in the world again sends her reeling into panic attacks and night terrors. Good thing the studly cop upstairs has decided to keep an eye on her. It doesn’t take any time for sparks to fly and flames to ignite!

Dear Sexy AF Intern,

I know you don't particularly care that I'm the CEO of this company, and you're just an intern. I also know you're not impressed by my power or my wealth, and that's fine.

You think you've got me all figured out from working alongside me for two weeks, but you don't know me. Not really.

You don't know that I'm a single dad to twin toddlers, or that those two little girls matter more to me than this entire hotel chain.

I'm not interested in starting something deep and meaningful, but what I am interested in is the way your body reacts to mine when we're in the same room. You probably assume the concentration on my face is work-related, when in reality, I'm figuring out which I want more--to nail you against the wall, or to bend you over my desk.

While you're too disciplined to act on it, I'm not. And the night you stepped into my limo, all bets were off.

 

Fast paced, intense and fun! With the latest from Kendall Ryan, we get a single dad who’s intent on working hard and taking care of his girls. He doesn’t have time for messy entanglements so he makes sure they never have the chance to occur. Until her. She gets under his skin like no other, so he’s going to let his guard down long enough to have her … but will it come back to bite him? Fun read, but ends in a cliffhanger.

CEO Dominic Aspen is all work and no play. He has twin toddlers at home and has no time for the games and turmoil of a relationship. He gets his satisfaction in an all business fashion and saves his spare time for his daughters. Until he meets his newest intern. She’s assigned to him for two weeks and he can’t believe the temptation of just being near her!

Presley Harper needs this internship to turn into her dream job. She’s working hard to get ahead so she can care for herself and put her younger brother through school without starving while she does it. Getting a full time job at Aspen Hotels would be a dream … but man, oh man, Dom is more temptation than she can stand!

 

 

 

 


A steamy romance about a sexy (but emotionally broken) single dad and the smart, driven (doesn’t take no for an answer) intern who makes him feel things he has no business feeling.

Excerpt

What just happened?

Apollo Drakos stood slack-jawed as the woman sashayed down the hallway, but to be honest her sashay was more like a waddle. A cute waddle, but still a waddle all the same.

How could she still be pregnant?

His attorney had assured him the baby was born, though no one had been able to tell him if it was a boy or girl. Not that it mattered to him. Either way, he was still claiming his niece or nephew.

The attorney had gone on to inform him that Miss Costas would have a strong case to gain full custody of the baby, as well as control over the child’s inheritance. The attorney even seemed to think that with Miss Costas being adopted and not the child’s biological aunt, it wouldn’t be enough to sway the judge from giving her custody. But did Popi really want to take on that responsibility? Or was she doing it out of necessity?

Apollo knew he had no one to blame for this mess but himself. While Popi had been here, helping to make his brother and sister-in-law’s dream of a family into a reality, he’d been off on another adventure—avoiding the fact that he was the unwanted son, the outcast. But he’d come here as soon as he’d heard. That had to count for something, didn’t it?

But how was this going to work now that he knew Popi was still pregnant? Although it did look as though she was going to give birth soon. Not that he was an expert on pregnant women. Yet all of her was thin except for her stomach. It was very round indeed. Funnily enough, from behind you couldn’t even tell she was pregnant. However, the cute little waddle did give it away.

It wasn’t until now—seeing Popi round with a baby—that he realized how much she’d done for his brother and sister-in-law. Not everyone would step up and offer to carry someone else’s baby—certainly not him, if that were even a possibility.

Gathering himself, Apollo pressed his lips together in a firm line. Who exactly did this woman think he was? And where was she moving to with his brother’s baby?

The baby belonged at the Drakos estate, which was situated just outside Athens. It was a place Apollo rarely visited. Though the vast estate was aesthetically beautiful, it held many dark memories. When Apollo was a kid, it felt more like a prison he so desperately wanted to escape. While his older brother, Nile, had been cast as the “good son,” Apollo had been labelled “worthless” by their father.

Apollo slammed the door on the bad memories. But no matter how many times he turned his back on the past, the door would eventually creak open once more. He’d heard it said that you can’t outrun the past. He should know—he’d been trying for years and it was still just a blink away.

He needed to concentrate on the here and now. Everything was such an utter mess. If only he’d have come home when his brother had asked…
