Colonel Emilio Gariboldi is a complex man. He is also a veteran of the Second Italo-Abyssinian War.

An idealist as a young man, he had hoped to emulate his hero Italo Balbo and hence joined the Italian air force.

A fatal encounter with an enemy intruder while camped with his air force unit on the heights of an elevated plateau near Axum in the northern parts of Ethiopia changes his life forever.

The discovery of the body of a young black woman prisoner found in bed next to him cements his embroilment with a criminal organization involved in human trafficking.

Almost two decades later, another young black girl is found dead at the foot of the Terzano Tower in Campobasso.

Are the crimes related?

Yes, my disaster has a name.

Micah Ainsley.
Everything I’m not. Nothing remotely good for me.
He’s all wolf—moody, savage, and ferociously protective.
I’m a human puppy.
He thrives on secrets.
Everybody knows what I had for breakfast.
He’s experienced. So experienced.
I’ve never even been kissed.

But when he needs my help to take down a rich creep who just happens to be my new client, I’m game.
I’m ready to live a little.
I’m eager to prove I’m more than a hot mess with a cross-eyed crush on a coldhearted man who’s too old for me.

Then another surprise bites me in the face.
The night Micah claims me.
The moment our wrong becomes reality and there’s no going back.
The darkest chase is on and it only ends one way—sweet dreams or total devastation.

All the small-town sugar, spice, and angsty goodness in one epic slow-burn romance. Remember to breathe as you watch Redhaven’s coldest man thaw for the little spark he’ll fight like mad to keep.

One nickname flashing across my screen to drag me back into his tangled web. That one text sent me back to my hometown. A town full of heartache, secrets, and abandonment. Straight into the arms of the man I’ve always known was meant to be mine. Our story wasn’t over… The man who was standing in front of me now was a far cry from the boy I once knew. That boy who disappeared in the dead of night a decade earlier, leaving me with nothing but vague whispers of basic training, concerns of war, and the gut-wrenching feeling of betrayal. I had always believed in fate. Believed in what most would call a twin flame; soul tied… Any word that explained loving someone so intensely that nothing could ever break that connection to them. Jensen was all those things and more. I’d be damned if I missed our one last chance for someday. Even if all the promises falling from his lips might be from a soulmate who was never meant to be.

#BookTour: Mated to the Wolves by Ophelia Black @RABTBookTours



Pack Pledged series Book 1

 

Paranormal Romance, Romantasy

Date Published: July 24th


 

What do my childhood bully, an ex, a shunned pack healer, and my deceased father’s best friend have in common?

They’re all part of the new clan I’m promised to. A prophecy from the pack witch sees me ripped from my college graduation, drugged, and brought home. Thrust into the spotlight of a pack that despised me for being the sole survivor of a house fire that ended two powerful bloodlines, I’m out of my element.

Forced to choose between the start of Ragnarök or my own desires, I embark on a journey with men I don’t want or trust. As the corruption and threats come from the shadows, the options become clear, find common ground or become pawns in a game far bigger than ourselves.

 Why does the greater good have to be so freaking painful?

#BookBlitz: The Echo on the Water by JA Huss @XpressoTours #Giveaway $250 gift card + signed copy of The Echo on the Water

The Echo on the Water
JA Huss
Publication date: July 25th 2024
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense

Rosie Harlow is desperately seeking… well, she’s not sure. A romance would be nice but so would a dinner conversation with her pre-teen son. Too bad her boy is way too busy growing up to pay his mama any attention. Rosie never meant to swear off men and she’s not frigid—you don’t become a single mom at fifteen by being frigid—but this dry spell of hers has gotten out of hand and something must be done.

Enter Amon Parrish. Back in high school Amon was voted most likely to get caught with his pants down. He was a trouble maker. The quintessential bad boy. But twelve years away from home, traveling the world and working with Collin Creed doing super-secret (and somewhat illegal) things, changed all that. These days Amon Parrish is a brand-new, stand-up man.

And, to Rosie’s surprise, a romantic man as well. Because he has decided to court her. And this is not just any ordinary courting, either. It’s… well, a page ripped right out of a bodice ripper.

But everyone in Disciple, West Virginia has a secret in their past.

Even the cheerful, perpetually optimistic, and seemingly innocent, Rosie Harlow.

The Echo on the Water is a swooning plate of small-town fiction served up with a side of spice. It honors the themes of friends to lovers, found family, and is filled with bigger-than-life, morally-grey characters against a backdrop of the weird and wonderful.

INSIDE THE PAGES YOU WILL FIND:

Small Town Secrets

Charming Alpha Male

Friends to Lovers

Touch Her and Die

Morally Grey

Found Family

THIS BOOK WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE AT NOOK, KOBO, AND APPLE ON PRE-ORDER and will release two days early at those distributors. It will go into Kindle Unlimited on the stated release day of July 25, 2024.
