About The Socialite Murder:

Their perfect life is a perfect lie…

It’s been three years since Dr. Kylie Saunders came face-to-face with her friend Chloe King’s killer, and Dr. Blake Weathers saved her life. Though the past may be behind them, what happened between Kylie and Blake remains unfinished.

When Chloe’s brother Stratton invites them to spend a week at his family home in the Hamptons, the vacation offers everyone a chance for a fresh start.

But Kylie isn’t arriving alone. Her new boyfriend, Danny, is joining them along with Stratton and his fiancée Penelope, and as tensions flare between Danny and Blake, so too does Kylie’s unease about the couple next door, Celeste and Roland Greer.

Socialite Celeste appears to have it all–limitless money, beautiful looks, and a powerful husband–until Kylie witnesses a concerning confrontation between them, and the veneer of their perfect life cracks.

By morning, the couple is dead. And the closer Kylie gets to the truth, the harder someone tries to keep it buried.

But in the Hamptons, nothing stays a secret for long.

New Release ~ Rag’s Awakening ~ by ~ Chiah Wilder

Title: Rags’s Awakening

Series: Insurgents Motorcycle Club

Author: Chiah Wilder

Genre: MC Romance

Release Date: June 17, 2026

Cover Design: Carrie @Cheeky Covers

A member of one of the largest MCs in Colorado, Rags is an Insurgent all the way. The outlaw is a free-loving biker loyal to the brotherhood and its lifestyle: fast Harleys, easy women, and hard-hitting brawls. It’s a simple life and that’s the way he likes it.

He’d given his heart to a special woman in his life, and she shredded it, so he’s not interested in another round. Now a barbed wire protects his heart and that suits him just fine.

Then he sees her and his simple life suddenly becomes complicated. Wild dark hair tumbling down her back, curves just the way he likes them, and a defiant look in her dark brown eyes. Yeah … she’s just the type of woman to stir up his libido and cause a lot of trouble.

Casey Reece is juggling three jobs to pay off debts her ex stuck her with as a parting gift. She once gave her heart to a man in leather, and he rode right over it. Now, she has sworn off anyone who even thinks about a motorcycle or whose wardrobe includes more leather than hers. She’s had her fill of bikers, their clubs, and their endless chatter about their beloved Harleys. Her only focus is picking up her life from the wreckage of her marriage.

When the rugged biker comes into the store acting like he knows everything about her job, anger rushes through her. So what if he’s lean, tall, and wickedly handsome and his swagger and bad boy attitude are sexy? He’s obviously an outlaw biker, and she’s not interested, even though the intensity of his gaze makes her stomach twist. But … one heartache is enough for a lifetime.

Fate seems to be messing with her because she keeps bumping into the sexy outlaw, and when his hazel gaze locks onto her brown one, an undeniable desire sizzles between them.

And in the midst of all this, a serial killer is roaming around the area, leaving a trail of bodies in his wake. All of a sudden, Casey is pulled into a terrifying nightmare and the only one who can help her is the sexy biker with the infuriating swagger.

Can Rags and Casey swallow their pride and rise from the ashes of their broken pasts to discover that the deepest scars are the ones that lead to the most profound and healing love?

Title: Undercover Lover

Author: Jacqueline Francis

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Fake Dating; Forced Proximity; Billionaires/Millionaires Romance; Law Enforcement/Action Romance; Reverse Grumpy x Sunshine; Opposites Attract

Release Date: June 11, 2026

I didn’t join the force to play dress-up in designer heels and pretend to be someone’s girlfriend, but apparently life has a sense of humor. And mine comes with a six-foot-something ego, a movie-star smile, and a peculiar knack for getting under my skin.

Marco Dal Santo is everything I don’t trust: cocky, charming, reckless, and way too comfortable in a world built on smoke and mirrors. I’m supposed to use him to get close to people who hide crimes behind champagne and expensive suits. He’s supposed to be a means to an end. Convenient. Temporary. And fake.

The problem? It doesn’t really feel fake because every time he touches me, every time he pushes past my defenses and makes me feel something real, I forget that we’re supposed to be pretending.

One minute we’re trading sarcastic barbs and sharing one very inconvenient bed; the next I’m laughing at his terrible jokes and wondering how a man who looks at me with nothing but raw lust can possibly be faking it. Somewhere between the staged kisses and very real arguments, the lines get blurred, and I can’t tell what’s part of the job…and what isn’t.

Now we’re caught up in a world where one wrong move can get us killed, and I’m starting to realize the most dangerous part of this case isn’t the criminals we’re chasing.

It’s him.

Because if anyone finds out I’ve fallen for my informant, I’ll lose my badge, my mentor’s trust, and possibly my heart in the process.

So yeah…I’m in way over my head.

And the worst part?

I’m not sure I want to be rescued.

Number cruncher by day, raging romance novelist by night; Jacqueline’s creative inspiration stems from romance and all its literary and rom-com depictions. Matters of the heart are what fascinates her, because ultimately, what makes a life out of – what would ordinarily be a typical existence – is Love

Title: Dirty Little Secret

Series: Milwaukee Mayhem #2

Author: Tracy Solheim

Genre: Contemporary Hockey Romance

Tropes: Opposites Attract, Workplace Romance

Secret Romance, Brother’s Boss

Release Date: June 8, 2026

BLURB

He inherited a hockey team from a father who never claimed him.

Now he’s risking everything for the one woman he shouldn’t want.

When Max Kellogg unexpectedly inherits the Milwaukee Mayhem after the death of the man who refused to acknowledge him, the league expects the brash Hollywood nepo baby to crash and burn. Not wanting to give them—or his late father—the satisfaction of being right, Max steps into the spotlight—rewriting contracts, rebuilding the roster, and signing the most electrifying teenage talent professional hockey has ever seen.

Eighteen-year-old phenom Parker Dern is a virtuoso on the ice—and a tabloid sensation off it. The only person who can steady him is his fiercely devoted older sister, Olivia Dern. When Olivia suddenly finds herself unemployed and on the brink of losing the stability she’s fought so hard to build, Max makes her an offer she can’t refuse: travel with the team. Keep her brother focused. Be his handler. Shield him from the glare of the spotlight.

It’s supposed to be temporary. Strictly professional.

Until late-night flights, luxury hotel rooms, and private skating sessions begin to blur the lines.

Making his late father pay for a lifetime of neglect has always been Max’s driving obsession. But when Olivia walks into his carefully calculated world, revenge is no longer the only thing on his mind. And for the first time, Max must decide if payback is worth losing the one person who makes him want something more.

Author: L. Wilder

Genre: MC Romance

Release Date: May 26, 2026

★★★★★ Amazon Review – “What an excellent and heartfelt story in the Fury Series…”

★★★★★ Amazon Review – “This was a shocking and emotional edition to the Little Rock Chapter of Satan’s Fury MC…..Some suspense with a beautiful and tragic story on both sides. Ending in a HEA that you don’t want to miss.”

★★★★★ Cajun Heat Book Blog (Barb) – “This was such a fantastic read that I couldn’t put down! A tragic tale that will have you all up in your feels!”

Some men are born drifters. Others are just waiting to find their way home.

Loss is tough.

Some learn to live with the grief and move on.

I couldn’t.

There were too many memories.

It hurt too damn much, so I packed up and left.

I spent years trying to outrun my ghosts

And then, a threat drew me back in.

It wasn’t my fight.

Hell, it wasn’t even my chapter.

I was only in Little Rock to deliver a warning.

I never intended to stay.

And I certainly never intended to meet her.

She was beautiful and soft in all the ways that can undo a man.

And she unraveled me without even trying.

I had no business getting tied up with her, but I couldn’t stay away.

She reminded me what it was like to have something worth living for.

Now, I had to make a choice.

Stay lost or find my way home.

Drifter is an emotional, slow-burn romance about grief, healing, the real meaning of family, and learning that loving again doesn’t have to mean letting go. HEA and no cheating.

𝗔𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗿𝗮 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄

I was living my best life with a career, friends, family, and love. Or so I’d thought.

After the ultimate act of betrayal, I find myself in the captivity of a dangerous mobster.

Zarren is unlike any other man I’ve ever known and this newfound world terrifies me.

And that world is one that hits even closer to home when I learn of my true lineage.

I’m not just a Sicilian Mafia Princess, but also betrothed to a Bratva Prince I’ve never met.

Everything I’ve ever known or loved is gone and I’m at the mercy of a captor who intrigues me.

And the attraction between us is hard to ignore, especially after he nearly gives his life for mine.

When we finally give in to the passion between us, it isn’t long before I fall for his raw brutality.

Only time’s running out for us because I’ve already been promised to another equally dangerous man.

𝗭𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗼𝗻

The bastard son of a sexual predator, I have always had the deck stacked against me.

It’s the reason I had to fight harder to earn my rightful place in the Brannington Empire.

Finally, I’ve forged a path for myself earning the respect of those that came before me.

And I’m tasked with furthering the organization’s power and influence by initiating a trade..

The mission is simple. Retrieve the Cosa Nostra princess and hold her for the Bratva Prince.

Only, she manages to re-ignite a long forgotten fire inside of me and I can’t resist the burn.

Aurora cannot either so when passion erupts between us, the entire mission begins to change.

I no longer want to give her up, wanting instead to keep her beside me… underneath me…

But duty comes before love and I’m forced to make a final wager for the heart I want to claim.

BLURB

A jilted bride. A wrecked goalie. An unexpected kiss that changes everything.

I came here to reset.

After a season that pushed me to my limits, I needed sun, quiet, and space—somewhere I could shut out the noise and get my head back under control.

Then Lexi Campbell sat beside me at the bar and asked for my help flirting with another guy.

I said yes because it was supposed to be fake. A distraction. Something with clear lines and no consequences. I’m good with pressure. I know how to stay focused, how to hold my ground when everything’s coming at me fast.

What I didn’t expect was how easy it felt to want her.

One kiss blows past every boundary I set. Suddenly, I’m not playing defense anymore—I’m all in, and I don’t know how to pull back. Lexi’s on a honeymoon she’s taking alone, guarding a broken heart she pretends doesn’t still hurt. I’m standing at my own crossroads, unsure where my future leads or if I’m ready to risk wanting something real again.

It was supposed to be a fling. But wanting her is the one thing I can’t seem to control.

For fans of fake dating, opposites attract, and swoony NHL players who actually like to dance, Slapshot Summer is a heartwarming romance with plenty of spice … and, of course, a guaranteed HEA.

**PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally published as Sunsets, Stick Saves, and a Honeymoon in the Love in Destiny Series. The content has not changed. If you’ve read that version, then you’ve read this one as well.**
