(Faetales, #2)
Genres: Adult, Fantasy

Auralia’s biggest mistake was falling in love with the wrong fae ten years ago.

Her second biggest mistake was falling in love with an unseelie she can never be with.

To anyone who witnesses the glares and harsh words between them, Auralia and Donovan seem like they hate each other. But under all that annoyance is a passion they can’t quench.

When Auralia’s husband tells her it’s time to return to him, she has to say goodbye to her dream life in the Unseelie Royal Court. It’s for the better. They would banish her if they knew her past and what she’d done to become the king’s most trusted advisor.

However Donovan has a different idea of how their parting is going to go—or how it will never go, because he’s not giving her up. Not ever. Even if he has to steal her.

could make this holiday grump want to grovel?

Because this girl is all I can think about,

and I’m not wasting my chance this time.

Ellie

It’s Christmas in July in Candy Cane Key.

However, winning Best on the Beach is the only thing

turned firefighter who’s come back home.

July is tourist season for our little beach town.

as travelers visit for sun, surf, and holiday silliness.

is a run-down gas station.

But I’m keeping my eye on the prize.

Not on Matthew Hightower.

That’s one gift even Santa can’t deliver.

unrequited love, small-town beach romance

Synopsis: A demi-god who refuses to cohabitate with humans accidentally falls in love with one in the first book of a pulse-pounding teen duology that’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Celtic mythology.

Neve has spent lifetimes defending the mortal world against the legions of hell with her two sisters. 

Unfortunately for Neve, in this lifetime, she is the only one of the Morrigan—a triad of Irish war gods—still stuck in high school and still without her full power. She’s been counting down the days until her eighteenth birthday, when she finally gets to shed the pretenses of humanity and grow into her divine power.

But then she meets Alexandria. And Alexandria is as determined to force Neve into some semblance of teenage normalcy as she is haunted by her own demons—both figurative and literal.

As they grow closer, Neve decides that humanity—and, perhaps, love—isn’t so detestable after all. Which makes it all the more dangerous when she realizes that something in Hell wants Alexandria, and it’s be up to Neve and her sisters to save her before Alexandria’s past catches up to all of them.

Maybe friends really do make the best lovers…

Barista Maddie Stalwart-Jones has known Todd Kaihanga all her life, but no matter where her brain wanders when she’s not vigilant, she refuses to consider her brother’s best mate as anything other than off limits. It would be all wrong, right? The self-proclaimed pessimist is intent on ignoring the fact her cafe manager is the only guy she can relax and be herself around, and the only person she’s comfortable talking about her dead brother with.

Intent on escaping Wānaka, where everyone seems to have an opinion on her intimate business and family history, falling for Todd would be highly inconvenient.

Todd’s a patient guy, but he’s over waiting around for Maddie to notice he could be so much more than a shoulder to lean on. When Maddie’s mother finally agrees to accept some much needed help with her run down property, it’s a perfect catalyst for Todd to prove to his high school crush that his optimistic streak isn’t a curse, it’s the perfect yin to her yang. The wedding of the year is about to kick off, and there’s only one woman he wants to be dancing with.

A mid-summer Valentine’s Day novella, TANIWHA CREEK joins Stephanie Ruth’s award winning Otago Waters series, set in the beautiful South Island of Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Intended for readers who enjoy their slow-burn, feel-good romance on the steamy side, with the promise of a happily ever after.

#BookReview: The Summer of Songbirds by @kristywharvey @GalleryBooks

Synopsis: Four women come together to save the summer camp that changed their lives and rediscover themselves in the process in this moving new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Wedding Veil and the Peachtree Bluff series.

Nearly thirty years ago, in the wake of a personal tragedy, June Moore bought Camp Holly Springs and turned it into a thriving summer haven for girls. But now, June is in danger of losing the place she has sacrificed everything for, and begins to realize how much she has used the camp to avoid facing difficulties in her life.

June’s niece, Daphne, met her two best friends, Lanier and Mary Stuart, during a fateful summer at camp. They’ve all helped each other through hard things, from heartbreak and loss to substance abuse and unplanned pregnancy, and the three are inseparable even in their thirties. But when attorney Daphne is confronted with a relationship from her past—and a confidential issue at work becomes personal—she is faced with an impossible choice.

Lanier, meanwhile, is struggling with tough decisions of her own. After a run-in with an old flame, she is torn between the commitment she made to her fiancé and the one she made to her first love. And when a big secret comes to light, she finds herself at odds with her best friend…and risks losing the person she loves most.

But in spite of their personal problems, nothing is more important to these songbirds than Camp Holly Springs. When the women learn their childhood oasis is in danger of closing, they band together to save it, sending them on a journey that promises to open the next chapters in their lives.

From an author whose “writing coats your soul with heart” ( E! Online ), The Summer of Songbirds is a lyrical and unforgettable celebration of female friendship, summertime freedom, and enduring sisterhood—and a love letter to the places and people that make us who we are.

Author: Andi Rhodes

Genre: MC Romance

Trope: Opposites Attract

Release Date: July 27, 2023

BLURB

Dip…

I’m not a good man, and I’ve never pretended otherwise. As the Road Captain of Satan’s Legacy MC, I’ve seen and done things most wouldn’t be proud of, but me? I couldn’t care less. Good, bad, or indifferent, I am who I am, and you either accept me or don’t.

That has always been the way I lived my life. Until the night I walk into a bar and see her. She shouldn’t captivate me the way she does, but those eyes, those tits, and that mouthwatering ass suck me in. Despite that, it’s clear she doesn’t belong here. She’s a good girl, a nice girl, a girl I could corrupt in a heartbeat.

So when she gives me a proposition, how can I say no?

Kennedy…

When I got married at nineteen, it was because I had to. My husband was chosen for me by the church, and I had no say in any of it.

But now I’m a widow, and my life is just beginning. For the first time in ten years, I feel in control, and all I want to do is lose it, throw caution to the wind and experience all the sins I can without damning myself to Hell.

And I think I know just the person to help me do it.
