He was supposed to catch killers, not marry one.

Detective Boston has built a career on hunting dangerous people. Rules don’t scare him. Blood doesn’t bother him. And morality has always been … negotiable.

But nothing prepares him for the night he walks in to find her.

An assassin for hire with electric blue hair, a blade in her hand, and no intention of being caught.

He should arrest her.

Instead, he makes her an offer.

Marry him, and he’ll keep her secret.

Refuse, and her life will fall apart.

For him, it’s a calculated move.

For her, it’s blackmail dressed up as a wedding.

Living with an assassin was never part of the plan.

But the longer they’re married, the harder it becomes to decide who is more dangerous.

I swore I would never return to Driftwood Bay.

But eight years later, the tides have brought me home to salt-worn piers, familiar shorelines, a town that once felt like everything, and to August Cove, the last piece of my past that the undertow won’t release. Where memories will crash against the present and I must decide whether Driftwood Bay is somewhere I can finally let go of… or somewhere I was never meant to leave behind.

She was swept out like a ship to sea, gone without a trace. Or at least that’s how it felt. But now she’s back, all these years later, the woman who broke my heart in ways that never truly healed.

And in Driftwood Bay, the sea always has a way to bring lost things home.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Goodreads Review – “The feeling behind this story is beautiful. I felt all the emotions at the same time and I loved every word, every page, and every moment of this book.”

C.L. Reeder lives in Texas with her childhood sweetheart, their two grown-ish kids, and an unsettling number of animals. Crimson Fate was her debut novel—and the first offering in what she hopes will be a long line of dark tales.

When she isn’t writing, she’s wandering thrift stores, yard sales, and coffee shops, drawn to the forgotten and the strange. A lover of all things witchy and a collector of dead things, she finds beauty where others might look away.

When not working, she can usually be found at home with her husband, searching endlessly for something to watch… or for the vape that’s vanished yet again.

I lost my heart a long time ago to one woman.

The love of my life.

The mother of my children.

I could weather any storm with her by my side.

But I lost sight of that somewhere along the way.

Holding her in my arms as she nearly died tore me to shreds.

I vowed a long time ago that I would never let anything happen to her, and I failed.

And now she was ready to leave.

Not because I didn’t protect her, but because I lost sight of who we were.

That was all about to change.

Because if there was one thing I knew for certain, it was that life just wasn’t worth living without her by my side.

I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

Author: J.A. Collard

Genre: MC Romance; Contemporary Romance; Romantic Suspense

Tropes: Slow Burn; Forbidden Romance; Grief Romance; Forced Proximity; Brothers Girl; Alpha Hero; Protector Romance

Release Date: July 16, 2026

I’m the President of the Sinners Motorcycle Club — one of the youngest in the country. I didn’t get here by accident. I got here because I’m the man people turn to when things need doing. The man who keeps his word.

My best friend and brother died protecting me. His last words were a promise he asked me to keep — look after his woman, Sophia.

Simple enough. Except Sophia is a thorn in my side.

She was supposed to go home, grieve, and get on with her life. Instead she keeps turning up at the Blood Brothers clubhouse like she can hold onto him if she just stays close enough to where he used to be. I get it. I do. But that’s not a life — and I owe my brother more than letting her disappear into one.

So I bring her home. Keep her close. Keep my promise.

What I didn’t plan for was her.

The way she fits into my house, my mornings, my life — like she was always supposed to be there. The way I find myself watching the door when she’s out too late. The way something shifts inside me that has no business shifting at all.

I want her. God help me, I want her.

And that changes everything.

TATE — Sinners MC Book One. A slow burn MC romance about loyalty, grief, and a love that was never supposed to happen.

J.A. Collard is a Melbourne-based author setting hearts (and eReaders) on fire with her steamy, addictive MC romance series, Blood Brothers MC.

A proud Aussie mum by day and a passionate storyteller by night, she’s the queen of badass bikers, fiery heroines, and stories that keep readers up way past bedtime.

J.A. married her high school sweetheart, and together they’re raising two amazing kids—proof that soulmates and happily-ever-after’s exist, both on and off the page.

Her debut novel Tame Me burst onto the scene in 2016, quickly followed by Tamed and Taming Hawke, which all climbed to the top of the charts and built a fiercely loyal fanbase of romance lovers who can’t get enough of her raw emotion, sizzling tension, and that signature Collard heat.

What started as a dream scribbled in quiet nighttime hours has grown into a full-blown writing career. With each book, she brings her readers deeper into a gritty, passionate world where danger, love, and loyalty ride side by side.

While she’s got big plans to tell every biker’s story, she’s also working on fresh projects guaranteed to set pulses racing.

When she’s not writing or wrangling her real-life crew, you’ll find her dancing like no one’s watching, binge-reading spicy romance, or laughing loud with friends and family.

Author: Giulia Lagomarsino

Genre: Small Town Romance

Tropes: Opposites Attract; Sworn off relationships; Grumpy/Sunshine; Damsel in Distress; Friends with Benefits

Release Date: July 13, 2026

★★★★★ Goodreads Review – “If you like small-town chaos, stubborn idiots falling in love, enough tension to power an electrical grid, and a healthy sprinkle of “well… that escalated quickly,” do yourself a favor and pick this one up.”

★★★★★ Goodreads Review – “Giulia Lagomarsino is wonderful at world-building. More importantly, she creates characters who are fully three-dimensional, and then she makes you fall in love with them.”

★★★★★ Goodreads Review – “Oh boy… another emotional roller coaster from Giulia! Rumor Has It has it all—thrills, humor, a swoony small-town romance, and plenty of chaos.”

The moment I laid eyes on her as she dangled from a string of Christmas lights from her roof, I knew I was in trouble.

Gorgeous eyes, adorable smile, and a tenacity that I found oddly charming.

And so freaking sexy.

No woman should have that much power over a man. Yet, whenever I found myself around her, I couldn’t contain the need to kiss her, devour her…make her mine.

But this town is known for interfering and causing problems in even the smallest situations, which is why this has to stay a secret.

Every kiss, every second spent in her presence has to be between the two of us.

And yet, unforeseen circumstances force me to put myself out there even when I desperately just want room to recover from my injuries and discover who I am again.

I’ve seen the way she looks at me.

I’ve felt the way she shudders in my arms.

Rumor Has It, this isn’t going to turn out like I planned.

★★★★★ Amazon Review for Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart – “Some of her best writing…Holy cow, this book! I was immediately immersed in Murky Falls! I could not put this book down. I’m excited to read the rest of the series!”

★★★★★ Amazon Review for Real Good Man – “When the Grump Finds His Roots (and the Sunshine Refuses to Leave) …the kind of small-town romance that sneaks past your defenses with humor, heart, and a slow-burn love you didn’t see coming—but end up rooting for with your whole chest.”

★★★★★ Amazon Review for How Forever Feels – “Amazing! Felt like coming home again! Another fantastic book from Giulia!This story had it all, love, healing, and found family, not to mention the suspense of a 25 year old mystery to keep you guessing.”

★★★★★ Amazon Review for Shut Up and Kiss Me – “Amazing as always!!! What an adventure!!! It was fun, unpredictable, and full of emotion—exactly what I was hoping for and more. All in all, an easy 5 out of 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

★★★★★ Amazon Review for Foolish Pride – “Amazing…Quite a surprise ending. Oh my gosh. Another story that stays with you for a while. I thought we were moving right into the HEA, when it all went sideways. I need the next book NOW. Great writing from an amazing storyteller.”

Spotlight ~ Shamed ~ by ~ Rin Sher

Title: Shamed

Author: Rin Sher

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Forced Proximity; Slow Burn; Tortured Characters; Redemption; Protective Hero

Release Date: May 14, 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon Review – “Honestly, this is one of the best books I’ve read this year. I really like books that pull on that raw emotion and that are unique stories. I feel like Rin Sher is always able to deliver in both of those areas.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon Review – “What an absolutely epic conclusion to this series!…The sorrow, the tension, the angst, the emotion; everything culminated into my favourite story of the entire series! An absolute huge BRAVO to Rin Sher!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon Review – “breathtaking, heartfelt, and unforgettable finale…Shamed by Rin Sher is an absolute emotional powerhouse and a stunning conclusion to the Broken Souls series.”

I sent an innocent man to prison.

For 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 I relived the events of that horrific night. A night that changed the course of my future and left me with the jagged pieces of a shattered mind and a broken soul.

For 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 I thought justice had been served, that the monster had gotten what he deserved.

Then the truth came crashing down.

And I realized, I wasn’t the victim at all . . .

I was the monster.

With guilt burrowing deep, eating away at my marrow, I disappeared into a darkness of my own making, punishing myself for every minute I roamed free, all while an innocent man remained locked behind bars. I traded the sunlight for the neon glare of the stage, and turned my body into a living reminder of my sins.

And then suddenly, he shows up.

A man tied to the worst mistake I ever made. A man who somehow reaches into the pit I dug for myself. A man who refuses to let me stay broken, trying to glue my fragments back together with kindness that cuts deeper than any blade.

He looks at me like I’m still worth loving.

But if he learns the truth—if he realizes the kind of person he’s falling for—will he still want me or will loving me be the biggest mistake he’s ever made?

Because monsters don’t get a happy ending . . . do they?

🚨 NOTE: This book contains triggers and they can be provided upon request.

I was born in Australia but now live in Canada where I have been since I was 19. I’ve always loved reading, but decided to try my hand at writing a few years back.

I have several other WIPs on the go so there will be no shortage of stories to come!

I love coffee, sunshine, wine, a good laugh, and I love LOVE!! I’m always rooting for people to fall in love, whether it be in books, movies, or real life!
