The Storm General Manager insists that she learn about hockey from the new goalie, Blake Collins.

When a knee injury affects his game and attitude on the ice, he gets transferred to the San Francisco Storm as their only hope of making it to play-offs. As the player with the most knowledge and skills passed from generations of great hockey players, Blake is forced to teach the new knows-nothing-about-hockey owner, Arianna Santos, about how the hockey world works.
 
Blake and Arianna’s animal attraction to each other gives them a passionate one-night stand in LA that doesn’t end as they expected. Will their reunion cause a riff in the organization? Will they both play nice to one another for the sake of the team?

New Release ~ Getting Lucky ~ by ~ A.R. Casella & Denise Grover Swank

Getting Lucky, an all-new sexy standalone romantic comedy in the laugh-out-loud Asheville Brewery Series by New York Times bestselling author Denise Grover Swank and A.R. Casella is available now!

One night. Just one night.

Or at least that’s what Maisie tells herself when she brings Jack Durand home. Because even though his arms are a thing of beauty and he can charm wild animals (a huge turn-on for an animal lover like her), she’s in no position to start anything with anyone. So she pretends she’s just scratching an itch.

Jack is pretending too. His little sister is moving to Asheville as his ward, and between getting her through her senior year of high school and working at the family brewery, he doesn’t have time for a girlfriend. Even a sexy, no-nonsense powerhouse like Maisie.

But he can’t stop thinking about her, and it turns out he doesn’t have to. Her best friend, River, announces his engagement to Jack’s half-sister, Georgie, and—surprise!—they’re both in the wedding party.

Fate keeps throwing Jack and Maisie together, reminding them of how good they are together . . . which would be a whole lot less complicated if she hadn’t spent half her life in love with River.

Why I’m Yours

 

A point in time, an unexpected event, changes everything.

 

 

Reagan’s life was about to begin. A recent college graduate with her career about to launch, she was living in Boston with her best friends. She had everything she worked hard for until one man took it all away, leaving her feeling empty and desolate.
After spending a few years alone, Reagan finally moves to Chicago with her best friend, Aimee, and vows to put her past behind her. When Reagan lands a job at Powers Financial, she never expects to find the one person that would give her back the girl she left behind years ago.
Drew Powers loves being the powerful CFO of a successful corporation and raising his son, Dawson. He’s known as “asshat” at the company and it doesn’t help calm his temper or patience. Drew’s main focus doesn’t include love or commitment. Those are the last things on his mind.
When the reserved and beautiful Reagan Halloway bumps into him and tests his patience, he ignores the lust he feels for her until she becomes all he can think about.
Fate is a powerful thing. A force that leads two people to one another and gives them both the one thing they didn’t know they were missing.

Why It’s Real
No matter how hard you try to put your past behind you, it always manages to catch up with you and make you question your decisions. Those unexpected events that leave you feeling as though there’s nowhere to turn, nothing can change the outcome.
Aimee’s life hasn’t always been easy. She made a choice a long time ago to make a difference. She wanted to prove to those who doubted her that she was strong and could survive anything. The youngest in her firm, she was made partner, and her life was exactly as she wanted it to be.
Or was it?
Remy was strong and confident. He lived a life most men would die for. Dominating the corporate world during the day and partying with socialites at night, he had everything he needed.
Or so he thought.
One changing moment.
One drastic decision.
Together, would they truly be able to discover why it’s real?

Title: Rebel
Series: Montgomery Brothers Series
Author: Laura Pavlov
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 5, 2021
Cover Design: Sarah Hansen ~ Okay Creations

 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”To say that I loved this book is an understatement. Pavlov brought family, values, humor, and heat to a unique storyline that had me grinning from ear-to-ear. Pavlov wove an irresistible love story that’s fresh and romantic. It’s the kind of book that reminds you why you love reading this genre.” ~ Adriana Locke, USA Today Bestselling Author

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”Oh, those Montgomery brothers! I love them all but I have a sweet spot in my heart for Jack. He can do no wrong in my eyes. And Monroe is the perfect match for him! A perfect end to a delightful series.” ~Willow Aster, USA Today Bestselling Author

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Two words…Jack. Montgomery! He is the perfect combination of sweet, funny, kind, and sexy! The banter between Jack and Monroe is hilarious and angsty…the perfect mix. This was by far my favorite of the series, and I’m so sad that it’s over. Well done, Laura!” ~ Head in the Clouds, Nose in a Book

 

REBEL
I’m always down for a good time. I’m that guy.
I love women. I love sex. And I love my life.
Go big or go home, right?
My father’s death is a constant reminder of why I like to keep it simple.
Life is short.
Emotional attachments make you weak.
Grieving sucks. And I have no interest in caring deeply for anyone outside of my family.
I’m not looking for complications.
Monroe Buckley is a complication.
She’s driven.
She’s focused.
And she’s my best friend’s little sister.
Not happening.
But once we’re forced to spend time together…I only want more.
Too bad she’s the one woman who is off-limits.

MONROE
I don’t trust most people, and I have my reasons.
I’m passionate about my work, and I came here to do a job.
Not date the boss.
Getting hired at the top media company in the city is the break of my life.
But it means working for Jack Montgomery.
My one-time crush.
My brother’s best friend.
And the current thorn in my side.
He’s exactly what I want to avoid.
Yet he’s everywhere I turn. Even when he’s not there—he’s in my head.
He’s a magnet for attention.
A heartbreak just waiting to happen.
And my heart is something I fiercely protect. At all costs.
They say the heart wants what the heart wants…
But my heart isn’t allowed to make that decision anymore.
There’s too much to lose.

 

I limped back to my office and found Monroe sitting in the chair behind my desk. I shut the door behind me and studied her.
“Nice to see you, darling,” she said through her laughter.
“What are you doing?” I rubbed my lower back before stumbling to a chair and dropping to sit.
“Ah, a little sore, are we? Mr. Badass Football Player.”
I rolled my eyes. “I’m fine. Why are you behind my desk, and what’s with the evil smirk? What are you up to?”
She pushed to her feet and came around the desk. “I just thought I’d sit here with the door open, because I assume if we were actually dating, I would do that, right?”
“Good thinking, ole wise one.”
“This is why I get paid the mediocre bucks.” She used her pointer finger to tap her temple and smiled. “Don’t forget, it’s Tuesday. We’re going back to The Dark Temptress tonight. Operation Dirty Reynolds is on.”
I nodded. I had a private investigator following Simon, but I wouldn’t tell her that just yet. I knew she wanted to do this on her own, and I didn’t want to ruin all the fun. No one liked a buzzkill.
“Don’t forget, we have the fundraiser at his house this weekend. You’ll go as my date.”
“No duh. We’re dating. I have no choice.” She moved to her feet.
“As if you aren’t dying to go,” I said, trying to stand and wincing because my muscles were screaming like little bitches.
She patted me on the back, just enough to make me flinch. “Buck up, buttercup. You’ve got a couple more weeks with me if you’re lucky.”
She waltzed out the door, and I stood frozen in my office. Partly because I had physically taken an ass-kicking this morning—but also because she was right.
I was lucky.
And I was in no hurry for my luck to end.

New Release ~ The Patriot ~ by ~ Jennifer Millikin

♦ ♦ ♦

I’m a soldier. A cattle rancher. A Hayden. My family’s legacy is spread out in front of me, just waiting for me to seize it. If it weren’t for one outdated rule, I’d be the owner of the Hayden Cattle Company and my aging father could retire. When Dakota Wright shows up to buy and develop twenty acres of Hayden land, I see more than a pretty mouth and strawberry blonde hair. I see a way around the decree keeping me from getting what I want. And, as luck would have it, Dakota has a big problem of her own. We strike two deals: one for the land, and a second that’ll make both our problems a distant memory. It isn’t too long before I realize I’m in over my head. I’ve convinced myself the ends should justify the means, but everything begins to fall apart when my birthright is no longer all that I’m after. I never thought there’d be anything I could love more than my ranch and my country.  I was wrong. Turns out, I want it all. Including her.

#TPRD-14 ThePatriot-Cowboy ThePatriot-ExSoldier-NA

♦ ♦ ♦

#TPRD-15 She’s late.  Dakota was supposed to be here fifteen minutes ago and I feel like a dumbass for being so keenly aware of that. Watching the clock like a whipped schoolboy. Pathetic.  I walk away from the window that faces the road, and go to the kitchen to rinse out my coffee cup and set it on the drying rack. Somewhere in the distance, a car door slams shut.  Before I open the front door, I’m careful to rearrange my features. Cool indifference is what I’m going for, maybe with a side of I forgot you and everything about that night.  I pull open the door just in time to watch Dakota falter on the second step. She regains her footing and keeps going. When she notices me standing in the open door, she stops short, her eyes wide, and she sucks her bottom lip between her teeth.  Jesus… this girl. How am I going to spend a morning with her in my truck? From three feet away I can smell her sweet, mouthwatering scent, the same one I couldn’t define that night at the lake and don’t have a prayer of defining now.  Her jeans are so tight she might as well have them painted on, and they’re tucked into cowboy boots. I draw in a shaky breath, but it doesn’t quite fill my lungs.  “You’re late,” I say, and it sounds angry even though I don’t mean it to be. I don’t like the way she puts me off-kilter.  “My apologies,” she says tartly, in a way that conveys she isn’t sorry in the least.  A throat clears and we both follow the noise with our eyes. Gramps sits in a chair, watching us. I must not have noticed him when I was looking out the window. I was too busy watching for Dakota.  He stares at me, waiting for me to introduce him. “Dakota, this is Leroy Hayden, my grandpa. Gramps, this is Dakota.”  Dakota walks over and shakes his hand. “It’s nice to meet you,” she tells him, smiling down at him.  I can already tell he is dazzled by her. “You can just call me Gramps. Are you a friend of Wes’s?” The excitement in his voice at me possibly having a friend is mortifying.  “Uh, no.” Dakota shakes her head. “I’m here on business.”  Gramps turns a confused look to me. “We need to get going, Gramps, but Dad is inside. He can explain the business that Dakota is here for.” To Dakota, I say, “Ready?”  “It was nice to meet you, Gramps.” She winks at him and turns, going back down the steps.  For a moment I’m frozen, struck dumb by the sway of her hips and remembering the night she was swinging them on the dance floor.  I hurry after her. “This way,” I tell her, chucking my chin sideways toward the side of the house where I park my truck.  She keeps three feet between us as we walk, and I can feel her silent questions coming at me through the separation.
