All she wants for Christmas is a fake fiancée…

Susanna’s life will never be the same.

After adopting adorable baby Jude, Susanna has decided to leave the city behind for small-town Trinity Falls, where she spent her childhood summers trying to hide her crush on her best friend’s handsome older brother, Derek.

But Susanna hasn’t even finished unpacking when she and her new son find themselves in a tight spot, and gorgeous, grownup Derek decides to help by pretending to be her boyfriend. Somehow, Susanna finds herself going along with the ruse. And it just might work…

Until things escalate again.

And again.

Before she knows it, Susanna, Jude, and Derek are attending all the town’s Christmas festivities and sharing great big family dinners at Webb Farm.

And she’s even wearing the quiet cowboy’s ring.

Sure, it’s just a fake engagement, but the way Derek looks at her still takes her breath away. And watching the big man care for baby Jude with such tenderness tugs at her heart. Now it’s getting harder to separate what’s real from what’s not, and to keep her old crush from roaring back and breaking her heart…

Moving to a charming mountain town was supposed to be my fresh start. Falling for its grumpy mayor wasn’t part of the plan. Neither was coming face-to-face with a man from my past who’s supposed to be dead.

I’ve only been in Braeden Creek a few weeks, but I’m already falling in love with the small-town charm, the mountain views, and the people who have welcomed me like I belong. Helping open Kat Arden & Co.’s new office gives me the fresh start I didn’t know I needed, and planning the town’s annual Christmas Charity Ball should be the perfect way to settle in. There’s only one problem: Mayor Judd Kinley. The grumpy single dad is stubborn, protective, and determined to rein in every idea I have for making this the best Christmas event Braeden Creek has ever seen. He also happens to be dangerously attractive, devoted to his three kids, and becoming harder to resist every time we’re together.

Then Judd introduces me to one of the potential sponsors, and my perfect new life begins to unravel. I know his face because six years ago, I became a witness in an investigation involving a missing man. The suspect at the center of it supposedly died before the truth ever came out, yet now he’s standing in front of me using another name and pretending we’ve never met. Judd believes me when no one else has a reason to, and when someone searches my office and steals the only proof I have, Judd’s protective instincts go into overdrive. Suddenly, the man who barely tolerated my Christmas cheer wants me close enough that he can keep me safe.

The closer we get to the charity ball, the harder it becomes to separate danger from desire. Someone wants the past to stay buried, and whatever happened six years ago followed me straight to Braeden Creek. Judd has already lost one woman he loved, and I’m beginning to understand why he guards his heart as fiercely as he protects his family. But with a killer hiding behind a new identity and Christmas closing in, falling for Judd could give me everything I never knew I wanted. Or it could make me the next person who disappears.

Shattered Echoes is a steamy small-town romantic suspense featuring a grumpy/sunshine romance, protective single-dad hero, forced proximity, Christmas romance, found family, danger from the past, small-town secrets, and a heroine determined to uncover the truth.

 

Retired hockey player Sam Hansen isn’t looking for love. Not after losing his wife, not when his only priority is giving his daughter a stable, happy life.

A fresh start in Chapman feels like the right move—until a shattered window introduces him to his beautiful, complicated neighbor… and turns his carefully controlled world upside down.

Ronnie Talbot has already rebuilt her life once. Now settled in her new hometown with her two daughters, she’s focused on her career, her family, and keeping things simple. No distractions. No heartbreak.

Then Sam walks in. Steady, kind, and far too tempting to ignore.

As their children form an unexpected bond, Sam and Ronnie find themselves drawn together in ways neither of them planned… and both of them fear.

But opening their hearts again means risking everything they’ve worked so hard to protect.

And this time, love isn’t just about them—

It’s about the family they might become.

 

 

Unfortunately for her, she can’t say the same thing about being a Mommy. As much as she wants a Little girl of her own, every attempt she’s made so far has ended in disaster.

Then help arrives from the most unexpected source: Noelle’s high school nemesis, Eleanor Hayes.

Eleanor’s proposition is straightforward. She’ll spend a week as Noelle’s Little girl, helping her learn everything she needs to know about being a good Mommy. And then they’ll go their separate ways and never speak again.

But from the moment Noelle gets adorable, curvy Eleanor over her knee, she knows there’s only one thing she wants for Christmas this year.

Now she just has to convince her Little girl that the magic of Rawhide doesn’t have to end at the Ranch gates…

 

 

 

Too bad the universe didn’t get the memo.

 

Something changed in all three of them after Scotland. Fiona’s power now reads intention whether she wants it to or not. Violet’s phoenix fire has started showing her places and events she shouldn’t be able to see. And Aislinn can pull memories from the earth itself, whether she’s ready for what she finds or not.

 

They barely have time to wonder what any of that means before an ancient magical network wakes beneath Cottlehill and a fragment of dead-god power escapes into the ley lines.

Then the silver markings start appearing. At first, it looks like the victims’ magic is simply being pulled out of place. But the truth is worse.

 

 

A desperate father started the whole mess trying to save his daughter. Orla Vane sees something bigger in what he uncovered. She believes the old Aeridh network can change how supernatural power is shared, and she’s willing to use anyone she has to in order to make it work. Even children.

 

Meanwhile, the divine fragment everyone is fighting over isn’t trying to destroy Cottlehill. It’s trying to get home.

 

With the next ley-line reverberation closing in, Fiona, Violet, and Aislinn have to break Orla’s control of Aeridh, keep its living relays alive, and get a piece of dead-god power back where it belongs before the network tears through everyone connected to it.

 

Their magic is changing faster than they can understand it, time is running out, and walking away has never really been an option for any of them.

 

 

 

 

Wrecker

 

Five years ago, while the rest of the world was singing carols, I was watching my brand new baby girl fight for her life while simultaneously blaming myself for her mother. The crushing guilt of being too damn blind to see what was right in front of me will haunt me for the rest of my life. I failed my daughter, and her mother, and there's nothing I wouldn't give to change that.

 

Now Tristan is turning five, and the closest thing she has to a mom is the woman who runs her daycare. Heaven is everything I'm not—warm, kind, and obsessed with the holiday spirit—and though she's keeping me from drowning in single parenthood, she ought to steer clear of an outlaw like me.

 

Instead, she looks at my broken pieces and doesn't blink. She wants to show Tristan the real magic of the season. And I suspect she's also trying to thaw the ice around my heart in the process. But Heaven's running from demons of her own, and after the hell she's escaped the last thing she needs is to ruin her peaceful new life by getting too close to a man who wrecks everything he touches. 

 

 

When the Wickeds and Whiskeys come together, all roads lead to salvation.
In the heart of the Adirondacks, nestled between a scenic lake and miles of gorgeous forest, lies the rustic small town of Salvation Falls, where family is bigger than bloodlines and birthrights, loyalties run deep, and the Dark Knights rule the road. Come along for the wicked ride and let these badass bikers rev your engine as they stake their claim on their forever loves.

Each book can be enjoyed as a standalone novel with no cliffhangers or unresolved issues.

 

He’s a golden retriever who wants it all. She’s a black cat who loves her independence. Opposites don’t just attract, they combust in this funny, sexy, standalone romance.

Sometimes the greatest treasure of all isn’t the one you’re searching for. It’s the one you discover along the way.

I came to Saint Aurelle to join a shipwreck-recovery mission, but my sharp-tongued dive partner, Randi Remington, is a glorious distraction. Randi is stubborn, snarky, and the most capable marine archaeologist I’ve ever met. She also has more rules than a dive manual, starting with no strings and ending with no Noah.

I’m a patient man, and we all know some rules are meant to be broken. I’ll use my charm to woo her and prove that I’m more than just a handsome face and a cocky attitude.

I’m the temptation she can’t deny and the man she doesn’t know she needs.

Some roads lead home. Some lead straight back to the one you never got over. From New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster comes WHISKEY SALVATION, a small-town, second-chance standalone MC romance loaded with heat, humor, and heartbreakingly angsty love.

Rebel Whiskey has one rule: Don’t go home. It’s a good rule. A necessary one. Because going home means seeing Sailor Wicked, the woman he’d married too young, divorced too messily, and has never, not for one single day, stopped loving. When his brother’s world falls apart, Rebel has no choice but to ride back into the life he abandoned and straight into Sailor’s orbit, working beside her in their family’s classic-car restoration business. For the first time in years, he isn’t thinking about the road ahead but about all he left behind.

Sailor is no longer the naive girl who thought true love would last forever. She’s strong, she’s guarded, and she is absolutely not falling for Rebel Whiskey again. Even if he is looking at her like her heart is the only thing in the world worth restoring.

How much is a year of my life worth?

It turns out the answer is a hell of a lot, but there’s a catch. I’m more valuable asleep than I am awake. Go figure.

They offered me the deal of a lifetime. It was also the only way I could get my life back. Five years in a suspension pod, and when I came to, I’d be a rich man. I’d have more than enough to fix my broken body and start a new life. It would have been perfect—except someone canceled my wake-up call.

Now that I’m awake, I need answers, allies, and the money I’m owed. But first, I need to get my body back.

One weekend. A cooking competition. Camera crews and string lights and tourists who'd never look close enough to see what lived in the shadows behind the charm. The plantation had played this role before—beautiful, composed, hiding its teeth—and the sisters were good at maintaining a mundane appearance. Probably too good.

 

Turns out they should've kept their heads down.

 

Something has been waiting in the bayou south of their property line since before New Orleans had cobblestones. Something long-suffering. Something that perseveres. After all, impatience is for things that haven't learned to fail well. This has failed a hundred times and still returned, sharpened by each defeat. Now there's a crack in the ward that held it out for nearly two centuries, and it's about to overcome that magical bond the way that water finds every weakness in old stone.

 

Then a vampire with knowledge that predates the nation appears like the swell of ocean waves in the hours before a hurricane.

 

She's not here with a warning. Warning implies time. She's here because the bloodlines connecting all nine lineages are waking up. And like it or not, if the Sisters can't hold the line, there won't be anything left worth protecting. Not the plantation. Not the city. Not the lights strung through the oaks that glow at dusk like something holy.

 

The competition finale is in three days.

 

And the ancient power yearning to break free isn't going to wait for the credits to roll.

 

 

Addison
My ex is unhinged.
I have to stop him before he kills again.
I’m scared out of my mind.
But I must warn his next victim.
I may be stronger than I look.
That doesn’t mean I will give another man my heart.
I’m not open to love.
No matter how kind and attractive my savior is.

Ghost
When she shows up, the world stops spinning.
She’s fire and determination in a tiny package.
And she needs protection.
Earning her trust is going to be a challenge.
Turns out I like challenges.
She has to stay.
There are no other options.
Addison is my world now.

 

 

I thought I had everything under control.

But a single mistake endangers all that, and I’m forced to call the one man who never gave up on me: my stepbrother and former best friend, Logan Hawke.

When we were sixteen, I ran away from Logan and his father without telling them why.

Now, Logan is taking me home again... to the stepfather who probably never wants to

see me again.

My return is every bit as hard as I feared. Dutch Hawke is no longer the rough,

affectionate man who cared for me when my mother left. He’s changed, and when I

arrive I find his eyes hot with passion, his tongue sharp with anger.

And the return to Wood changes Logan, as well. He’s suddenly dark and brooding, a shadow rather than the sunshine boy I grew up with.

These men aren’t the safe haven I remember. And I’m not the outgoing girl they once knew. But I need safety, and Dutch and Logan are my only family. If they’ll have me back.

If we can learn to live with each other again.

Then, when the trouble that chased me out of New York City suddenly arrives in Wood, I get my answer. Dutch’s ice turns to a heated possessiveness and Logan becomes more dangerously protective than I imagined possible.

One is shadows and darkness, hot desires running under a rocky exterior. The other

has a heart tender enough to shatter at the lightest touch.

They’re more than the stepfather and stepbrother I knew when I was young.

They’re the matches my soul has been waiting for.

If we can survive the trouble that’s coming for all of us in Hawke’s Wood.

If we can allow ourselves to finally love. Finally trust.

Finally build a family.

 

Book 4 in the romantic suspense series Sea Smoke Island.

 

 

She came to Crescent Moon Ranch to film a glossy celebrity wedding — spectacle, fame, a tidy little documentary. Instead, her camera keeps finding Beck Reed: the quiet one, the piano player who holds the whole band together and lets everyone else take the bow.

What the world doesn't know is that Beck could have had the spotlight. Juilliard-trained, classically gifted, the pride of an old-money family with a plan for his life — until he walked away from all of it to play country music in the background of someone else's band. His family hasn't forgiven him. So he's made himself small ever since, certain that being needed is the closest he'll ever get to being wanted. He doesn't expect anyone to look closer. People never do.

Blake does.

But then, Blake has spent her whole life behind a lens. She's the daughter of a legendary documentary filmmaker — a man with four ex-wives and no time for any of them, least of all her — and she learned early that the camera is where you put your attention instead of on the people right in front of you. She took the job her father sneered at as beneath him, determined to prove a wedding could be real art. She didn't count on the truest thing at Crescent Moon Ranch being the man nobody else even notices.

As a slow Montana winter draws them together and the documentary turns from glitz into something honest, Beck and Blake discover they've spent their whole lives running from the same thing in different directions — two kids who disappointed impressive families by choosing warmth over prestige, and learned to disappear rather than be found wanting. He faded into the background. She hid behind the camera. And now the only person either of them wants to be seen by is the one finally looking back.

 

One paranormal investigator. One very reluctant vampire. Seven nights under the same creepy roof. What could possibly go wrong?

When paranormal researcher and podcaster Lucy Hinton’s listeners challenge her to spend a week in the spookiest house in the scariest town in America, she’s all in. She’sfascinated–not frightened–by the paranormal.

Seven nights in a creepy mansion? Great content.

A huge boost for her research funding? Even better.

The mansion's broody new owner? An unexpected complication.

Duncan MacKillop wants nothing to do with small towns, mysterious inheritances, or the relentlessly cheerful woman determined to investigate every bump in the night. The New York lawyer is determined to survive a week in the mansion his estranged grandfather left him, sell the place, and get back to his real life.

Preferably without Lucy discovering one tiny detail.

Duncan is a vampire.

No matter what happens inside the mansion, he can’t let Lucy discover that.

 

 

When you're born and raised on the wrong side of the tracks, a smooth ride through life is a luxury you can't afford. That's why I break my back to keep the ranch equipment running. My life is hard, but it's also honest, and I've accepted that it doesn't have a happy ending. How could it when Genevieve Montgomery is my biggest regret?

Then a rare night out with the guys from the ranch lands me face-to-face with the woman I've never been able to forget. She's still just as flawless as the day she walked out of my life, and if the sparkling rock on her finger isn't enough of a reality check, meeting her polished fiancé—a local politician who expects my vote—certainly is.

I can stay in my lane and respect that she'll always be out of my league. But as campaign season heats up, she gets a taste of my rough and rowdy world, and to my surprise, this perfectly put together good girl isn't afraid to get a little filthy.

Then everything explodes. Genevieve's fiancé is hell-bent on taking down the Fallen Demons MC, and he doesn't care who gets caught in the crossfire. When the truth comes out, suddenly I'm protecting her from the biggest mistake of her life, but I'll be damned if I let anyone ruin her twice.

Turns out death gods don't appreciate when you convince their contracted souls to file for breach of contract. Who knew? (Papa Legba knew. He warned me. I didn't listen.)

 

Now I'm dealing with the fallout: my apartment is haunted by ghede spirits who rearrange my furniture at 3 AM, my coffee tastes like grave dirt, and every mirror shows me exactly how I'll look as a corpse. Subtle, Baron. Real subtle.

 

But I don't have time for a divine harassment campaign because my new client is an eighteen-year-old college student who inherited her mother's debt to Ayizan—the goddess of markets and initiation. The girl owes seven years of service in the spirit world, starting immediately. She hasn't even finished her freshman year.

 

The contract is legitimate. The mother knew exactly what she was doing when she traded her daughter's future for her own success. And Ayizan is one of the oldest, most respected lwa in the pantheon—the kind you don't challenge lightly.

 

But this kid didn't sign anything. She didn't agree to anything. And according to mortal law—the law I actually studied—you can't inherit debt without consent. The question is: does that principle apply in a realm where gods make the rules?

 

Baron stops haunting me halfway through the case. Just stops. The spirits disappear, my coffee tastes normal again, and for three days I don't see him at all. When he finally shows up, he's different—quieter, watching me work instead of mocking it. He tells me I'm going to get myself killed taking on Ayizan. I tell him to leave if he's just here to discourage me. He doesn't leave. Instead, he stays through my entire negotiation with the goddess, silent backup that I absolutely did not ask for and definitely don't need. Afterward, he tells me I argue like someone who's forgotten gods don't fight fair. I tell him maybe gods should learn. He almost—almost—smiles. It's terrifying.

 

I'm about to find out if mortal legal principles matter in the divine realm. Even if it means burning every bridge I have with the divine community. Even if it means the god who's been my worst enemy might be turning into something else entirely.

 

I became a crossroads demon to help people. If the gods don't like it, they can sue me.

Good luck finding a lawyer willing to take that case.

For fans of Kim Harrison's The Hollows and Ilona Andrews' Kate Daniels, CROSSROADS OF THE DAMNED is a snarky, sexy urban fantasy where corporate law meets voodoo politics, and the only thing more dangerous than challenging the gods is falling for one.

 

 

Mammon

I’ve spent most of my life watching the things I care about burn to ash. After the tragedy of losing people I loved most, I shut down and let a bitter silence drive a wedge between me and my sister. Now, my eyes are finally wide open. I’m proud to see my sister finding her own happiness, but a guy like me, with grease on his hands and the Fallen Demons MC patch on his back, I'm good on my own. I’m just focused on making sure I never lose anyone else.

Until she crashes into my world like the harmony in the midst of my forever hell.

Paisley is pure sunshine and joy. A bright light, and a badass on the rodeo circuit. She's better than the life she's living, but you'd never know it by the way she works her fingers to the bone. She’s everything I’m not, and the harder she tries to smile through the grit, the faster she tears down my walls.

But a light that bright attracts dangerous shadows. Paisley thinks she’s just dealing with typical rodeo drama, but I see something sinister in the threats she's been getting. Someone isn't just bitter about not being the best. And whoever it is doesn't just want revenge. They're trying to destroy her.

No matter who's behind this, I'm determined to protect her, because I never thought I’d have something worth fighting for again. Whoever thinks they can touch my girl will find out exactly why I’m called Mammon and am part of the Fallen Demons.

Bastards. Exiles. Humans. Kingdomless heirs. We're the ones no court wants—and the first ones sacrificed when the Trials turn deadly.

They have no idea I'm hiding a secret of my own.

Beyond the academy walls, I'm known as the Raven—a masked assassin whose true identity no one has ever uncovered. Here, I'm just another Unclaimed. And that's exactly how I need it to stay.

Every twenty years, the strongest from each house compete in a series of deadly Trials for a prize worth killing for: one wish granted by the goddess Elyra.

I know exactly what I'm going to wish for.

All I have to do is keep my identity hidden, survive the Trials, and win.

Then there's Leif.

A dangerous warrior from a rival house, he's suspicious of me from the beginning and getting far too close for comfort. I don't trust him. I can't afford to want him.

And I can never let him discover the woman beneath the Raven's mask.

Because no one survives long among the Unclaimed.

I intend to be the exception.
 

Nameless is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romantasy and the first book in The Unclaimed Kingdom series, filled with deadly trials, hidden identities, dangerous secrets, and a heroine no one sees coming.
