Corie

Knox Beckett is heartbreak in a helmet. He’s also my brother’s best friend, and so far out of my league, he's untouchable.

But a few stolen glances turn into a welcome home that blindsides us both.

The rules are clear. We just chose not to follow them.

Now we’re sneaking around like we’re running a trick play, hooking up behind closed doors, and pretending our actions don’t have the power to blow up our lives.

Knox is under my skin and tackling his way into my heart. Ready or not, it's time we make the play.


Knox

She’s the last girl I’m allowed to want—my best friend’s little sister. She’s all grown up and looking at me in invitation.

The second Corie crashes into me, with her tanned, toned skin, in a barely there bikini, I know I’m in trouble.

I shouldn’t look. And I sure as hell shouldn’t touch. My hands are already on her waist, one second longer, and I’ll do something we both might regret.

What I do is even worse. I help her land a job working for the team. My team.

Now I can’t get her out of my mind, or my way. And keeping my hands to myself is a penalty waiting to happen. Because Corie isn’t just off-limits—she’s one line I swore I’d never cross, yet I’m sprinting toward it.

I’d risk the season—my entire career—for her just to make the play.

From USA Today Bestselling Author Nikki Landis comes a steamy, age gap, morally grey, revenge-driven MC romance with a slight paranormal twist.

Brick:
Fifteen years ago, I lost my best friend, my sponsor, and the man I was proud to call a brother.
He was gunned down in the middle of the street on a Sunday afternoon.
A hit by a rival club as he rode toward his daughter on her thirteenth birthday.
Three miles from home, he missed her party and a pivotal moment in her life.
She never got to say goodbye.

Now, all these years later, we meet up again.
A snowstorm and a canceled flight in Denver put her in my path as I arrived at the airport to help my club brother.
I offer her a ride, and since it's her only option of arriving home safely, she accepts.
But we're targeted and followed, and nearly killed.
I manage to get her home safely for the holidays, only to kidnap and bring her to a safe house.

Ginny is mine.
I've claimed her and fallen hard for the sexy, curvy redhead.
I won't risk her safety. She's got to stay in hiding until I can deal with the threat.
But she's got secrets, and so do I.
Ginny doesn't know that I was the one who found her father, Hesh, in his last moments.
I made a promise to protect her, to get vengeance for the men who stole Ginny's father from her.
And if I have to ride into hell to do it, I will.

This is not a standalone. It's highly recommended to read My Christmas Biker first.

Welcome to Las Vegas, where sin, corruption, and the law tangle together. Control belongs to the ones who wear a patch and ride an iron steed. Get ready to rev your engines with the wicked, possessive, protective, alpha men of the Graven Bastards MC Las Vegas Chapter.

#BookReview: Out of the Dawn (Into the Mist #2) by @pccastauthor




Mercury Rhodes leads a group of survivors toward salvation—that is, until someone, or something, starts hunting them again.

Mercury Rhodes barely remembers life before the bombs fell, before the green mist. While it proved deadly to all the men who breathed it in, it gave new life to some women who did the same. The green mist provided each member of her newfound family an ability: Stella’s sense of the future, Imani’s earthly connection, Karen’s bond with Spirit, and Gemma’s healing ability. Although Mercury now has incredible physical strength—she doesn’t know if she will be strong enough for what comes next. Especially after the death of Ford, their companion through the aftermath of the mist.

The group finds respite in creating a small community in the Painted Hills. Together, they hope to find a place where they can start over. But Mercury knows it won’t be that simple, not when she knows someone, or something, is hunting them. Something that wants to rule the ruins of the world and something who sees Mercury as a threat to get rid of.

Mercury will have to muster all her strength if she is to fight for a new dawn. The fate of her friends—and the world—depend on it.

Dorseigh McHale is a simple girl next door, seeking to earn a living wage and let go of her need to please everyone.

Allison Liddle seeks to leave her past behind and travel the world in style.

Their simple plans are thwarted when an unconscious boy ends up in their driveway.

#BookReview: But Not Too Bold by @hachepueyo




The Shape of Water meets Mexican Gothic in this sapphic monster romance novella wrapped in gothic fantasy trappings

The old keeper of the keys is dead, and the creature who ate her is the volatile Lady of the Capricious House⁠―Anatema, an enormous humanoid spider with a taste for laudanum and human brides. 

Dália, the old keeper’s protégée, must take up her duties, locking and unlocking the little drawers in which Anatema keeps her memories. And if she can unravel the crime that led to her predecessor's death, Dália might just be able to survive long enough to grow into her new role. 

But there’s a gaping hole in Dália’s plan that she refuses to see: Anatema cannot resist a beautiful woman, and she eventually devours every single bride that crosses her path.

Now they seek to kill the one person whose existence defies their very mandate.
Now that Ashâke carries within herself the spirits of the surviving Orisha, she is on the hunt for allies who can help her defeat the encroaching army of Godkillers. But their influence is everywhere, and no one is immune―not even Ashâke. If she is to succeed, Ashâke will need to answer the question the Godkillers pose―are the Orisha even worth saving?


#BookReview: I Plead Alter Ego by @amandaverrallauthor



Clare is a successful but newly divorced woman who battles various mental health issues. These include sex addiction, alcoholism, OCD, an eating disorder and depression. She juggles her demanding career and life as a single parent, all the while trying to hide her increasingly uncontrollable behaviour, which manifests itself as an alter ego called Roxy.

At the dawn of a new digital age, Clare joins Facebook, a newly released social media website that has taken over from MySpace, where she connects and meets with a former flame. Following an emotionally sadomasochistic dalliance with this former lover, Clare then has a string of casual sex encounters with strangers. She has a growing drink problem that sees the alter ego Roxy take over the decision-making, often leading Clare into dangerous situations. Her growing dependency displays itself through obsessive-compulsive traits such as excessive cleaning, exercising and handwashing while, at night time, she has insomnia and often thinks about death.

Clare spirals out of control and falls into a deep depression, but can she hope to find a way out?

When the earth calls, the answer must be resounding.

Melissa knew that staying on Artemesia meant putting her life in danger. After a harrowing night with a Shadow God, mages, and narrowly escaping a sacrificial death, she's left with even fewer answers than before. One enigmatic question haunts her and may hold the key to everything: Who is Aurinia?

The aftermath of the failed winter solstice ritual continues to ripple through the groves, threatening to plunge the world into chaos. Following the gods' advice, she must venture beyond Dytika's borders to aid the vasilissas with their faltering elemental magic. This mission brings her face-to-face with the person she most dreads seeing: her second mate. The one that is in love with another.

Adding to her dilemma, Melissa is thrust into the precarious role of mediator in the delicate peace talks between the elves and the fae, striving to end a centuries-long war. Can she endure the tempest of trauma and grief to uncover her true strength? Will she defy the world's expectations, guided only by a murmur of prophecy?

#BookReview: House of Pounding Hearts (The Kingdom of Crows #2) by Olivia Wildenstein @olives21




I meant to capture the prince's heart... and ended up with a king's.

My desire to sit upon the Lucin throne led me to revive an ancient, winged monarch; one I deemed a friend until that friend duped and imprisoned me.

Lorcan claims he’s holding me captive for my own safety, but then he also claims I belong to him. Slumbering for five centuries has evidently given the Crow King severe delusions.

We may share an unfortunate mind-link, but we are still masters of our own destiny, and I intend to steer mine away from the Sky Kingdom and its prophecies . . . away from him.

I quickly find out there is no escaping the possessive male. In all honesty, I’m no longer certain I want to.


#BookReview: A Liar's Twisted Tongue (The Fated Blood Trilogy #1) by Caroline Cusanelli



Power. Obsession. The terrible price of survival.

Desdemona Althenia has spent her life in the shadows, hiding the volatile magic that could kill her if it’s ever unleashed. Born into the lowest ranks of society, she’s survived by her wits and her willingness to deceive. But when fate traps her within the brutal walls of Visnatus Academy, it also offers a dangerous chance: power, for the first time within reach.

Prince Lucian Aibek lives beneath the weight of a rotting empire and the ruthless grip of a corrupt family regime. Desdemona’s untamed fire could be the key to his freedom—and her chance to master the magic that might consume her. But as their fates entwine, the line between ally and enemy blurs, and they’re caught in a deadly game of ambition and desire, where trust becomes more treacherous than the magic they wield.

As an ancient society stirs, Desdemona and Lucian are forced to confront the ghosts of a war that never truly ended. Caught between survival and surrender, they must gamble everything: let their connection bring them to ruin—or become their only hope of redemption.



#BookBlitz: Improbable and Extraordinary by @improbableandextraordinary @RABTBookTours


 

Memoir

Date Published: April 21, 2025

Publisher: MindStir Media

 

 


Winner of the 2025 Literary-Titan Book Award (Memoir)!

Winner of the 2025 Firebird book award (Addiction and Recovery)!

Winner of the 2025 Firebird book award (Mental Health)!

Finalist, 2024 Literary Global Book Awards and American Writing Book Awards!

 

I believe Improbable and Extraordinary will be an extremely influential book - it's rare to see such a personal and raw account of mental illness, and then the continuous (and in this case, unique) process of overcoming it. Overall, an outstanding and moving manuscript...The flow is excellent and engaging and the voice is very strong. A true accomplishment!

Megan Patiry, author of The Alice Effect.

 

Escaping the torment of depression, anxiety, mania and addiction: Saúl's memoir is a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit, showing how even when it seems unattainable, transformation is possible. Once tormented by the crushing grip of bipolar disorder, depression, severe anxiety, anger, and addiction, Saúl shares the raw, unflinching truth of his battle with mental illness and trauma.

Through a profound exploration of love, not as a romantic ideal but as a fundamental force, and by adopting practical, yet challenging principles, the author discovers a path to inner peace and freedom. Saúl's candid reflections on overcoming a deep, persistent darkness reveal the possibility of peace, freedom, and personal growth.

This memoir doesn't just chronicle survival; it celebrates the power of transformation. Saúl's path through addiction and mental illness reveals that true peace and freedom are within reach, even for those who have lost everything.

By sharing his experience, Saúl aims to inspire understanding and hope, and communicate that healing is not just possible but transformative. This book is a beacon of hope for anyone wanting to find hope for themselves or someone they love.

 

From co-author, Dr. Erika Horwitz, Licensed Psychologist:

As Saul's sister, I witnessed his torments and struggles and his amazing transformation! As a psychologist, I understood the enormity of what he achieved-moving from a place of deep mental illness to stability, inner peace and wisdom. His story is inspiring and a testament to the amazing ability of human beings to transform. It's a story that offers hope to anyone facing mental health challenges and their loved ones. I knew it was essential for Saul to share his story, and I believe it will resonate with anyone who believes in the power of transformation."

“You must heed our warning!”

“We have always rewarded surrender over sacrifice, Ronan.”

“You must remember this for what is to come—”

“And the promise of who you will meet in what comes after.”

It seemed a lifetime ago that Dr. Ronan Gallagher had succumbed to his obsessive need to uncover the deepest secrets of the Codex Druidicus, a grimoire of the very darkest magic. Though he’d tried to protect his closest friends from a threat that had followed them through multiple lifetimes, the choices made by the Druid doctor had been a betrayal of not only his friends but his own sacred oaths—a betrayal he would pay for with his life.

Through the intervention of the Otherworld, he was given a second chance on this earthly realm to set things right. Yet, while the curse of the evil Sorcerer Cassius, ancient Child of Rome, might have been vanquished together with the Codex, the torturous tendrils born of Ronan’s pride and obsessive weakness still thrive in the shadows, their reach extending further every day.

When his fellow Druids learn of a massive explosion that has reduced a secret experimental Wraith facility to ruins, none can understand how Phoebe Ashburn, the sole survivor of the tortured experiments, has survived the blast’s devastation … and evaded their capture. With dark and volatile Wraith magic now trapped inside her—threatening her control and sanity—Phoebe is determined to discover how to rid herself of this inner darkness … even if it means accepting the assistance of the very Druid doctor whose actions had led to her torture in the first place.

#BookReview: An Academy for Liars by Alexis Henderson @lexish





A student will find that the hardest lessons sometimes come outside the classroom in this stunning dark academia novel from the acclaimed author of The Year of the Witching and House of Hunger.

Lennon Carter’s life is falling apart. 

Then she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to take the entrance exam for Drayton College, a school of magic hidden in a secret pocket of Savannah. Lennon has been chosen because—like everyone else at the school—she has the innate gift of persuasion, the ability to wield her will like a weapon, using it to control others and, in rare cases, matter itself. 

After passing the test, Lennon begins to learn how to master her devastating and unsettling power. But despite persuasion’s heavy toll on her body and mind, she is wholly captivated by her studies, by Drayton’s lush, moss-draped campus, and by her brilliant classmates. But even more captivating is her charismatic adviser, Dante, who both intimidates and enthralls her. 

As Lennon continues in her studies her control grows, and she starts to uncover more about the secret world she has entered into, including the disquieting history of Drayton College, and the way her mentor’s tragic and violent past intertwines with it. She is increasingly disturbed by what she learns. For it seems that the ultimate test is to embrace absolute power without succumbing to corruption . . . and it's a test she's terrified she is going to fail.

#BookBlitz: Dangerous Times by #WilliamKinsolving @RABTBookTours


 

Fiction

Date Published: May 1, 2025

Publisher: Manhattan Book Group


 

This book's background is the prophetic but overlooked decade of American history, 1846 to 1856, from the Mexican War to the presidential election of James Buchanan. The decade was a foreshadowing of our national cataclysm. Underlying every social aspect was the nation's fatal flaw, slavery, that perverted the Constitution on which the Enlightenment ideals of a "United States" were based. And on every day, similarities to the distortions of the present decade are obvious.

I chose a Southern ethos, finding an unexpected woman to suffer and survive the decade; and three brothers, each of whom carves a unique path through it, one as a fugitive unjustly accused of murder and slave-stealing, one as an enigmatic operative across the jagged spectrum of antebellum party politics, and the eldest who inherits his family's storied tobacco plantation as its lands burn out.

The story is told chronologically, the fiction adhering to the history. Should a question arise as to which is which, any event of historical significance - no matter how bizarre or implausible -- did indeed happen.

The novel echoes ethnic truths as they were at the time. I write of intimacies as well as horrors found in historical records. Both public and private relations were often infused with their own destruction -- as were the expanding "United States" in that decade, and I fear in this one.

#BookReview: A Pirate's Life for Tea (Tomes & Tea #2) by Rebecca Thorne



While searching for stolen dragon eggs, newly engaged couple Kianthe and Reyna find themselves smack-dab in the middle of a swashbuckling love story. 

On one side is Serina, a failed farmer turned river pirate. Her booty? Wheat, grains, and the occasional jar of imported tea leaves. It's quite the embarrassment to Diarn Arlon, the powerful lord of the Nacean River, and he'll conscript anyone to bring her to justice. Especially Kianthe, the elemental mage who just crashed his party, and her somewhat-scary fiancée. 

Begrudgingly, the couple joins forces with Bobbie, one of Arlon's constables--who happens to be Serina's childhood friend. Bobbie is determined to capture the pirate before anyone else, but it would be a lot easier if Serina didn't absolutely loathe her now.

As Kianthe and Reyna watch this relation-shipwreck from afar, it quickly becomes apparent that these disaster lesbians need all the help they can get. Luckily, matchmaking is Reyna's favorite past time. The dragon eggs may have to wait.

FROM THE DARKNESS, THEY WILL RISE.

Banished from the fae realm, the last surviving sirens cling to life in the underwater city of Salus, where death lurks at every turn. Mariana, heir to the siren throne, has spent her life preparing to protect her people against the fae, but when her sister, Astra, vanishes on a perilous mission, she faces an impossible choice: defy her mother’s command and risk everything to bring Astra home, or remain trapped in the darkness as her world fades away.

To save Astra, and the future of all sirens, Mariana must recover an ancient amulet capable of restoring their lost homeland, Sirenia, before it falls into the hands of the ruthless fae king. But before she can act, she is captured by Dax, a brooding fae warrior with secrets of his own, who is determined to drag her to the heart of the fae realm. Forced into an uneasy alliance, Mariana and Dax are drawn deeper into a dangerous web of fae politics, long-buried truths, and heartbreaking betrayal.

Stripped of her siren powers and thrust into a world of deadly lies, Mariana uncovers dark forces threatening not only her people, but the entire realm. In a world where loyalty is fragile, love is dangerous, and betrayal runs deep, Mariana must stop the wicked forces rising in the shadows before they can sing their final, deadly song.

When the Wicked Sing dives into a world where sirens are threatened with extinction against their ruthless enemies, the fae. Perfect for fans of the dark siren lore and sharp wit in To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo, the fae politics and dangerous romance of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J.
