Love Me Today by A.L. Jackson is now live!

 

A jaded single dad. A woman returning to her small-town roots. Neither was prepared for their paths to collide…

I should have known I was in trouble when I backed my old, beat-up truck into the shiny Range Rover.

The driver looked like a gorgeous fallen angel – one who’d been booted right out of paradise for being a giant prick.

Good thing I’ll never have to see him again.

Except when I show up for my new job to teach a little girl how to ride her horse, I find the same icy blue eyes glaring back at me.

Paisley Dae is completely reckless. She’s also the best trainer in this small town. And Evelyn gets the best.

Protecting the little girl is my one focus.

Only the sassy trainer in her cut-offs and cowgirl boots quickly gets under my skin. Distractions are dangerous, but she soon becomes everything I crave.

One reckless night of giving in, and Caleb and I spiral into a web of passion.

But when I begin to unravel the secrets hiding in this place, I find there is more riding on this job than I thought.

Caleb and Evelyn are worth any sacrifice – only Caleb has to decide what he will sacrifice for me…

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Love Me Today is the perfect example of why A.L. Jackson is the queen of small-town romantic suspense! From the moment of their not-so-meet-cute first encounter when her vintage pickup crashes into his shiny new Range Rover, Paisley and Caleb were perfection!

Caleb is broody and high-strung, a fallen angel as Paisley calls him, determined to right at least one of the wrongs of his past when it comes to protecting sweet little Evelyn. Paisley is a ray of sunshine, and quite the optimist, even though she’s been burned in the past. We know how this story goes — as Paisley spends time with Evelyn as her horse trainer/substitute nanny, she also slowly starts breaking down the walls that Caleb has erected around himself. But will Paisley be able to push through that last barrier when it comes to a man who doesn’t think he’s deserving of love, or will she get her heart broken yet again?

Audio narrators Joe Arden and Andi Arndt delivered this story beautifully. They nailed all of the tension between Caleb and Paisley, and brought a softer vulnerability to these characters as well.

Love Me Today was a great start to a new series, full of rich side characters I can’t wait to get to know better. I can’t wait to revisit Time River again.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

I have somewhat mixed feelings about Before Us. It’s emotional and angsty, and Dani and Seth were likable characters. It’s fast-paced, since it’s set over the course of a summer, with a hint of a love triangle between Dani and her childhood friend/late brother’s best friend Logan. Both Dani and Seth experience a lot of growth over the course of this book, even though there are truths he his purposely hiding from her: that he has cancer.

Overall, this was a solid book, especially as a debut novel and the first part in a duet. Before Us is full of heartbreak and tragedy, yet still manages to be a coming-of-age story as well. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

HOW TO WIN THE GIRL

Sara Ney

Release Date: May 24

FREE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

I, Drake Colter, solemnly swear I do not want a girlfriend…

Carefree and ridiculously good-looking, I have the entire student body eating from the palm of

my hand—shouldn’t I let the ladies on campus have their fill rather than being tied down?

If only my brother Drew would take notes from my playbook. As identical twins, we share the

same voice, the same face, and the same physique; it’s virtually impossible to tell us apart—but

that’s where the similarities end.

Lately, my brother has been whining about wanting to settle down with. He longs for affection,

companionship and all the bullshit that goes along with it blah blah blah.

Problem is, he’s hopeless when it comes to dating. It’s seriously embarrassing to watch,

considering we’re identical; everyone thinks I’m him and everyone thinks he’s me.

Luckily I’m not intimidated by woman and have plenty of experience. I might not want to find

myself a girlfriend, but that don’t mean I can’t help him. Dude never needs to know!

And that’s the very thing that lands me in trouble…

Karla Sorensen

Release Date: May 16

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

You are cordially invited to my fake wedding.

Marrying Beckett Coleman is the best idea I’ve had in years. I can grant my sick dad’s wish to walk one of his daughters down the aisle, and Beckett has my help solving a custody situation with his daughter. Our plan is to spend a year together, then part ways. Easy, especially since I’m not his type, and he’s not mine either.

He’s too quiet and too serious. And while he’s distractingly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate. Beckett is fake husband material, not the real deal. I just have to remember that.

Until I move in with him. Get to know him. Share a bed with him. Turns out, the line between fake and real isn’t just blurry, it’s almost impossible to uphold when he looks at me the way he does.

This marriage is a whole lot more complicated than we bargained for. We’re threatening to destroy everything we’ve built, something neither of us can risk.

Marrying Beckett might’ve been the best idea in years. But falling in love with him would be the worst.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Another great book from Karla Sorensen! Beckett and Greer both have their own reasons for wanting a faux marriage — and while it isn’t exactly love at first sight, and they are both deceiving their respective families in the process, they fall in love along the way and it was great to go along for that ride.

This was a lovely slow burn. There push and pull between Beckett and Greer made me want to throw my kindle, because there is so much chemistry between them! Beckett has a great co-parenting relationship with his ex, and it was so nice to see that they truly put Olive first and didn’t use her as a pawn for their own agendas. Beckett’s whole reason for agreeing to marry Greer is to solidify more time with his daughter. And the relationship that Greer developed with Olive was quite charming. She seemed to get that shy little girl right off the bat, and Olive just blossomed through their friendship.

As they go along their fake-marriage-way, Greer and Beckett begin developing feelings for one another — on top of increasing guilt about lying to their loved ones. The fallout is spectacular, and the makeup is magnificent!

One and Only is the start to a new series about the rest of the Wilder siblings. We have already met Erik in The Plan (another fake dating romance, and just as good!) and Adaline in Emmett Ward’s next-gen book, The Crush, but One & Only can be read as a standaline. I can’t wait to get to know the rest of this rowdy bunch!

ALONG CAME CHARLIE

S.L. Scott

Release Date: May 15

New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author S.L. Scott brings the charm and romance,
smiles and laughs to Along Came Charlie. This friends-to-more novel is packed with heartfelt
emotion reminiscent of the best of chick lit of the past with a modern twist for today’s
readers.

I’ll be your date, and you’ll be mine.

Who says a funeral can’t be romantic?
Okay, everyone. Including myself.
That doesn’t stop the rumor mill from turning when I show up with a beautiful redhead on my
arm.

That redhead also just happens to be a stranger, relatively speaking. Charlotte Barrow and I
have run into each other a few times—on the subway, at a bar, and now on our way to
separate funerals. Instead of the prodigal son who let his parents down showing up alone, I
traded favors and brought a date. The deal made sense at the time.

You be my date, and I’ll be yours.

Who knew bringing a date to your ex-fiancé’s funeral would cause such a stir?
Technically, I did.
I invited him anyway for moral support. It didn’t hurt that he was handsome.

The cold-hearted stares that greeted us didn’t matter. We found comfort in each other and
formed a friendship from there. Charles Adams was nothing like my ex. The pressure wasn’t
there to be anyone other than who I was. He also loved my cupcakes as much as I enjoyed his
company.

I always dreamed of finding my soul mate, and then along came Charlie. My perfect match was
right here all along. Did I realize it too late?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Having read several angsty books from S.L. Scott, I was pleasantly surprised by this sweet story between Charlie A. and Charlie (Charlotte) B. It was a wonderful slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance with a heavy focus on the developing friendship between these two characters. From the moment they first noticed each other on the subway to their first friend-date at a pair of funerals (yes, yes, but it works!), I adored these two characters. Scott perfectly captured every nuance as their friendship developed, the yearning, the longing, the will-they-or-won’t-they, and poor Charlie B’s trust issues after a broken engagement and the subsequent guilt and struggles that came with all she had to work through in order to be the best version of herself so she could be the partner Charlie deserved. This story is just lovely! I received a complimentary copy and voluntarily left a review.

The Problem with Second Chances by Piper Rayne is now live!

For Rylan Greene and me, it was simple. Love only got us so far.

I’ve known him since we were six, long before he became the professional soccer star he is now. We’ve weaved in and out of one another’s lives as rivals, teammates, friends, and lovers. Until three years ago, when my life took a hit and I ran back to my small Alaskan town, Lake Starlight, away from anything or anyone that could hurt me.

He’s never far from my mind, a constant pining ache in my heart, but I’ve convinced myself I’m better off. But now, my best friend announces her engagement and that means Rylan will return home to stand as best man to her fiancé.

He’ll be back in my orbit for three whole weeks… but I can easily keep my distance. Sure, we’ll have to walk arm in arm down the aisle together, he’ll hold me close during the bridal party dance and we’ll stand for pictures next to each other. Nothing I can’t handle.

I’m so naïve though because he’s not in town for more than twenty-four hours before he knocks on my door. I should know by now, that the two of us will never be finished business.

This second chance romance spans sixteen years of a true love match that proves these two will only ever belong to one another.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Like hundreds of other Piper Rayne fans, I have been waiting for years for Calista Bailey and Rylan Greene’s story. There have been snippets of these two legacy characters sprinkled throughout the OG series (the Bailey Family and the Greene Family), and we were teased beyond belief in some of the Bailey and Greene novellas. Finally — finally! — their story has been told it was every bit as wonderful as I hoped it would be!

The Problem With Second Chances is a magnificent second-chance romance, full of angst and the push and pull of will-they-or-won’t-they. Calista and Rylan are soulmates, so good together, so miserable apart, yet they can’t seem to get out of their own way and make their relationship work! Being forced back together as best man and maid of honor in the three weeks leading up to the wedding of their best friends really forces Ryan and Calista to take a long, hard look at their past and what they want for their future!

While this wonderful book is a standalone, it is especially a sweet treat for PR fans who have read the two series that this next-generation spinoff originated from. I adored seeing scenes from Rylan and Calista’s perspective, like when his brother Fisher nabbed them breaking into houses as teens to screw with people’s Netflix accounts. Loved all those little Easter eggs!

I read this e-book along with listening to Joe Arden and Erin Mallon narrate the audio book. The narrators did a wonderful job of bringing this beautiful story to life. I laughed, I cried, I couldn’t wait to get to the end, but I didn’t want this story to end!

This book was everything I hoped it would be and so much more! Bring on Brinley!

HACKER IN LOVE

Lauren Rowe

Release Date: May 5

Secrets. Everybody’s got ‘em, including me. Especially me.

The difference is mine will never be revealed, whereas I can easily get yours, assuming the price offered by your enemy is right and the scales of justice appeal to my personal standards of ethics. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. The thing that’s not so easy for a shy guy like me? Finding Ms. Right and locking her down.

Speaking of Ms. Right, the very night I was set up with Hannah Milliken by our mutual friend, I knew I’d one day kneel before her with a ring in hand. Hannah’s the kind of girl who’ll gleefully dance like a gorilla with me in the coolest nightclub or belt out a karaoke duet from Grease like her very life depends on it. She’s gorgeous, too. Funny and smart. And she even wears librarian glasses. See? Perfect.

I don’t doubt Hannah’s the one for me. Indubitably, she is. I only wonder how a dork like me could possibly land a goddess like her.

Unfortunately, when catastrophe strikes, all my questions are rendered moot. Now that Hannah knows the truth about me not actually working in cybersecurity—as well as the questionable things I’ve done to win her over—will I lose my dream girl forever, or is there still a chance for us to chase our happily ever after?

Hacker in Love is a steamy, funny, heart-pounding, standalone contemporary romance with a whole lot of feels, laughs, spice, and swoons by USA Today and internationally bestselling romance author Lauren Rowe.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 3.5 Stars

Lauren Rowe is a relatively new-to-me author, so I wasn’t jonesing for Henn’s story the way some other readers were. Did I enjoy it? Absolutely. But I feel like I would have been shipping this couple more had I read LR’s back catalog.

I thought Henn and Hannah were a great couple, with sizzling chemistry. I loved how he was kind of awkward and dorky, a total golden retriever of a book boyfriend, and she was sassy and a bit of a fireball. The main plot of this book revolves around Henn’s lie — he doesn’t exactly work in cybersecurity the way his friends think he does, and after being swindled and catfished by the last guy she dated, Hannah has zero tolerance for liars. And that puts our friend Henn in a bit of a predicament!!

This is a super cute book, and a complete standalone. But I felt like there were a bunch of supporting players in this story that didn’t necessarily *need* to be there to contribute to the story. I later came to find out that these were other characters from the LR universe and this particular couple’s story was long-awaited. So while I liked this book, I am in the minority of readers that didn’t seem to love parts of it…

Runaway Love by Melanie Harlow is now live!

Yes, I’m a single dad who needs a nanny for the summer.

But hire the stranded runaway bride who shows up on my doorstep in a wedding gown with no references, no skills, and no experience?

No one is that desperate.

Except within twenty-four hours, down-on-her-luck Veronica Sutton manages to charm my kids, my family, and half the population of Cherry Tree Harbor into believing she’s perfect for the job.

And for me.

It’s not that I can’t see the appeal-those baby blue eyes? The endless legs? That mouth made for trouble? But I’ve got enough on my plate, raising two kids on my own and keeping the family business alive. I don’t have the time or the inclination to fall for an outspoken city girl.

So I should have kept my hands to myself.

Holding her in my arms was a big mistake. Even worse? Spending the night together. She ignites a possessive fire in me that I’m finding hard to snuff out.


But the most unforgivable? Growing attached to the sound of her laugh, the scent of her skin, and the way her body wraps around mine in the dark.

At the end of the summer, she’ll be gone.
And if I’m not careful, she might run away with my heart.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Melanie Harlow kicks off a fantastic new series with Runaway Love and I am here for it! I fell in love with Veronica and Austin right away and I devoured this book. It was hard not to fall in love with plucky, outgoing Veronica and grumpy, overworked single dad Austin.

On her would-be wedding day, Veronica finds out that her fiance is shagging his assistant, which leads this former Rockette to put on a show-stopping performance before she walks out of the chapel with her head held high. But that also leaves her broke and homeless, with only the clothes she had in her hotel room. As luck would have it, she wanders into a diner and ends up with a job interview to be a nanny for the summer. Although the first meeting with her potential new boss, Austin, does not go well at all, he begrudgingly gives Veronica the job to care for his twins, Owen and Adelaide. The sexual tension is electric between them right from the start, but Austin and Veronica always stop after a few kisses. Until the twins are visiting their mom for a week and Austin and Veronica decide to have a week-long fling. Well, you can guess how that goes!

I loved Veronica’s strength and bravery. Even when she had lost everything, she found a silver lining. And poor Austin. He’d lived his life trying to make everyone in his family happy at his own expense for so long that he was afraid to reach for what he wanted to make him happy. Both in business and in his relationship with Veronica.

This story was absolutely charming. I loved Austin and Veronica, I loved the twins, I loved Cherry Tree Harbor and all of the eclectic residents we got to meet. I loved Austin’s Big Grovel, the reconciliation, and the happily ever after. I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series!

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Maddie and Nash’s story was amazing! This slow-burn best friends romance is full of heart, longing, and loyalty, with Catherine Cowles’ signature suspense threaded through. Best friends-to-more is one of my favorite tropes, especially when the author really relays the history between the characters. Cowles always does a fantastic job with her character development, and I *got* all of it between Nash and Maddie.

Growing up, Maddie and Nash were like two peas in a pod, but as they got older, Maddie wanted more from their relationship and didn’t think Nash was interested in the same. So she left town, and that decision altered her life forever. Now, with nowhere else to go after leaving her abusive ex, she is back in Cedar Ridge and reestablishing her relationship with Nash. Needless to say, Nash is not happy to hear that Maddie’s ex hurt her, and he goes into full-blown protector mode. Especially since Nash has been keeping a secret about their past.

I loved these two so much, and Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon did such a wonderful job with the narration of this story. I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series!

I read an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
