Review: This Feeling by Kelly Elliott

Posted on

Is there anything worse than getting dumped by your boyfriend in a very public, very humiliating way? How about agreeing to fake-date the jerk to help get his matchmaking mother off his back and make his new love interest jealous?

My friends and family don’t think so, but I’m getting Giants season tickets out of the deal. I can do anything for a short couple of months, right? However, when my ex’s sexier older brother, Delcan, moves back home, I realize I’m not that confident after all.

For five years, I’ve avoided Moose Village, New York, as much as possible for one reason: the girl I’ve crushed on since high school was already spoken for—by my brother. Now discharged from the military, I’m coming home, tentatively heartened by the fact that they’re no longer a couple. Except…it seems they are. But something’s different this time. Harper doesn’t seem as smitten as she was the first time around. Meanwhile, the chemistry sizzling between us is what I’ve dreamed of for years.

Even if I’m able to get to the bottom of the weird behavior between my brother and Harper, I’ve gone from one dangerous career to another. I’ve already got my anxious mother badgering me to quit. Will my career choice be too much for Harper, too?

I can only hope this feeling between the two of us is enough.

MY REVIEW

I am absolutely, without a doubt, in love with the Moose Village series from Kelly Elliott.

This Feeling follows the story of Declan and Harper. Declan has had a crush on Harper for as long as he can remember. But something always stood in the way, whether it was Harper’s younger age, his military career, or when she started dating Declan’s brother, Sean. The timing was just never right. But now that Declan’s time in the military is over, he’s ready to return home and hopefully, claim the woman he’s always wanted….

This Feeling is an unforgettable small-town romance that’s not afraid to pull out all the stops. I mean, you’ve got a fake relationship to throw off meddling parents, hilarious moments, off-the-charts chemistry, and a will-they/won’t-they romance that is sure to make anyone’s heart swoon. This book hits all the marks and has unforgettable side characters that you’ll be dying to know more about.

A must-read for lovers of swoon-worthy, small-town romances!

COVER REVEAL: Ruining Hattie by P. Rayne

Posted on

P. Rayne has revealed the cover for Ruining Hattie!

Releasing: July 17, 2025

Cover Designer and Photographer: Regina Wamba

A man with no limits is the most dangerous kind of threat.

When Trent Clarke caught me picking pockets at eleven, he didn’t turn me in. Instead, he took me under his wing and taught me that in this world, you take what you want and never look back.

He might have shaped me, but I built my empire of the most successful string of strip clubs on the West Coast.

Now that I have everything, it’s time to track down my deadbeat mother and remind her who she left behind. That is if the drugs didn’t kill her already.

But I don’t find the worn-down shell of the woman I remember. Instead, she has all the things she never managed to give me—the white picket fence, a family dog, even church on Sunday mornings.

The real kicker? She replaced me and raised the perfect daughter with all the care and love she never gave me.

A twisted need for revenge roars to life inside me, and I aim it at my mother’s precious stepdaughter—sweet, sheltered Hattie Sinclair.

At first, it’s purely about vengeance, pulling Hattie into the darkness to watch her innocence unravel piece by piece. But she becomes something more. Something dangerous. Something I can’t resist.

Until she becomes my obsession.

RELEASE BLITZ: Mountain Boss by S.J. Tilly

Mountain Boss by S.J. Tilly is now live! 

Courtney

I’m just so exhausted—always living on the edge of desperation, one paycheck away from ruin.

But this new job…

It could be the fresh start I need.

It could change everything.

The contract is only for three months, but if I keep my head down, work hard, and prove myself, maybe I could stay longer.

Maybe I could make Black Mountain Lodge my home.

As I pull down the gravel drive, surrounded by the forest and mountains and bright blue skies, I feel something I haven’t felt in a while.

I feel hope.

Sterling

My new employee is late.

I’m already in a bad mood about having to train him, still salty about my old guy retiring on me.

But while I’m waiting, a woman pulls up my drive.

A woman straight from my damn dreams.

Curvy and pretty, looking at me with wide eyes framed with sooty lashes.

And suddenly, I’m no longer thinking about my late employee.

But then she opens her mouth and asks for me, introducing herself as Courtney, my new hire.

Courtney. Not Court, like the application said.

And I realize there’s been a mistake.

I can’t have this woman working here. Living on my property. Distracting me. I mean, my staff.

No. She can’t work for me. End of story.

Except she won’t leave. She even threatens to sue me.

Fine. If she won’t let me fire her before she even starts, then I’ll just have to make her leave on her own.

Final Cost by Ava Ryan is now live!

Tamsyn is my life. But my tortured past threatens our future…

I own a vast fortune. Yet my life felt worthless until my chance meeting with Tamsyn Scott. She awakened something irresistible inside me that had lain dormant for far too long. So I followed her to Europe, where we indulged in scorching hot pleasure. Then I brought her home to my family estate, Ackerley, because she’s mine and I can’t bear to let her go. Everything seemed perfect.

Until my nightmare past reared its ugly head and ruined it all.

So I pushed Tamsyn away. To keep her safe. Even though it killed me.

Now I’m suspected of a heinous crime. The walls are closing in. My options are limited. But I’m determined to get myself out of this mess, seek redemption and beg her for a second chance. Will it be easy? No. But here’s the thing: she loves me more than she hates me and she’s still mine. We both know nothing will ever change that…

FINAL COST is a billionaire, age-gap romance with a possessive hero and a strong young heroine. It’s the epic conclusion in the brand-new Winter Trilogy. For fans of REBECCA.

RELEASE BLITZ – What About Now? by Kaylee Ryan

Posted on

RELEASE BLITZ

Title: What About Now?

Series: Everlasting Ink #4

Author: Kaylee Ryan

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Age Gap/Small Town/Tattoo Artist

Found Family/Drunken Vegas Wedding

Release Date: February 11, 2025

BLURB

NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series surrounding five best friends who co-own a tattoo studio. “What About Now?” is an age gap, found family, drunken Vegas wedding, small town romance.

Brogan

I didn’t plan on hooking up with my new brother-in-law’s best friend… or marrying him. 

Life hasn’t been easy, and it’s left me a little bruised, and a lot cautious. So, when I wake up in Vegas married to Maddox, I’m convinced it’s a mistake. A drunken accident that we should undo before anyone finds out. 

But he doesn’t see it that way. He asks for six months. Six months to show me we could be something real. And I don’t know why I say yes, except maybe a part of me wants to believe him. 

I’m not sure I deserve someone like him. But with every look, every touch, and every little gesture, Maddox is breaking down my walls. 

That’s why the next time he asks “what about now?” I know I’m going to say yes. 

Maddox 

I always thought Brogan was off-limits. Our paths didn’t just cross, they tangled. 

If things didn’t work out between us, it would hurt a lot of people. So I stayed in my lane, convincing myself it was for the best. 

Until Vegas. 

One too many drinks, a blurred wedding chapel, and a couple of shiny rings later, Brogan wakes up next to me… as my wife. 

She’s ready to call it a mistake and move on, but I see it for what it is: fate handing me the chance I’ve been too scared to take. 

So I make her a deal. Six months. I’ll prove we belong together, and if she still doesn’t believe it, we’ll walk away. No hard feelings. 

But I’m not going down without a fight. Flowers, her favorite coffee—I’ll give her everything she never knew she wanted, including me. 

And one of these times when I ask if she believes it yet that were meant to be, I just might get the answer I’m hoping for. 

Because I’ve waited long enough to make her mine, and this time, I’m not letting her go.

Release Blitz with Review: Under an Endless Moon by A.L. Jackson

Posted on

Under an Endless Moon by A.L. Jackson is now live! 

I should have known I’d break the oath I made when I offered to let my best friend’s little sister move in with me…

She’s the sweetest woman on the face of the planet.

And to my great misfortune, the sexiest one, too.

She’s been living under her brother’s roof her entire life, and she’s ready to spread her wings.

And I’m the masochist who offers she stay at my place until she can find an apartment.

When I hear her having a nightmare, the only thing I can do is go to her. Hold her so she knows she’s safe from her demons.

The second she’s in my arms, the attraction I’ve tried to hide sparks to life. I know better than to push past the boundaries I’ve set for us, but when she begs me to touch her in a way she’s never been touched, I can’t resist.

And with my name on her lips as I send her soaring for the first time, I know there’s no going back.

I’m willing to break every rule and oath I’ve ever made to keep her.

Accept every consequence.

Only she and I have a dark, dangerous history that no one knows about.

And I’m afraid the consequences of loving her have just caught up to us…

MY REVIEW

If you’re looking for an emotional yet suspenseful read, look no further, Under an Endless Moon has got you covered. 

Raven and Otto’s story captivated me instantly.  Their connection, chemistry, and devotion made them a force to be reckoned with. The passion and emotion dozed off the pages and left me hungry for more. Raven and Otto’s journey had its fair share of obstacles and ups and downs to overcome, but you can’t help but root for them to find their happily ever.  

Under an Endless Moon is a terrific read from beginning to end. Raven and Otto’s story is well-written,  entertaining, and all-consuming. You’ll be kept on your toes and left with a smile on your face.  Under an Endless Moon is a great addition to the Moonlit Ridge series, and I look forward to getting my hands on the next book in this series.

Release Blitz: Stealing Hearts by Lex Martin

Posted on

Stealing Hearts by Lex Martin is now live!

A marriage of convenience might save his ranch, but will it break her heart?

I don’t remember a time when I didn’t love Rhett Walker, which is complicated since he’s ten years older and my brother’s best friend. After a falling out, we didn’t speak for years–until today, when he found me sleeping in my car, threw me over his shoulder, and dragged me “to safety.”

He’s grumpy and overprotective and even more handsome than I remembered. I’m shocked to learn he’s in trouble. Someone is sabotaging his ranch, which is thirty days from foreclosure. He needs a loan from a friend who won’t extend the funds unless he’s married. Only Rhett’s now a single dad with no plans to fall in love again.  

When his brother suggests I marry Rhett for health insurance so I can rehab an injury, my first reaction is hell no. I can’t afford to catch feelings for a man who won’t see me that way.

But spending time at the ranch reminds me how much is at stake–the family business, the welfare of Rhett’s children, and the happiness of a man I’ve always longed for. 

Rhett says we’ll keep things platonic in private, even though I’ll be sleeping in his bed. He refuses to mix business with pleasure.

Except when the lights go out in his bedroom, our chemistry is too explosive to contain.

Would it be so bad to fall for Rhett? Or will he steal my heart all over again?

One thing’s for sure–the clock is ticking on our divorce.

Stealing Hearts is an age gap, marriage of convenience, single dad romance. If you enjoy grumpy cowboys, sweet but sassy heroines, a family of rowdy brothers, and secretive small towns, this book is for you!

Meet Lex Martin


Lex Martin is the USA Today bestselling author of Varsity Dads, Texas Nights, and the Dearest series. She writes contemporary romance novels, the steamy kind she hopes readers love but her parents avoid.

She’s always been obsessed with writing, starting in elementary school when she would pen short stories and make her father read them. (Afterward, he’d have to take her tests, but he was a good sport and did them without complaint.) In high school, when she wasn’t playing basketball, she wrote emo poetry and worked on the school newspaper.

She later became a nationally-certified high school English teacher and freelance journalist but decided she’d rather write romance novels than tests or city hall articles.

Lex loves coffee, rom coms, pen hoarding, planners, and college football.
She married her almost college sweetheart (they met right after graduation), and she’s still obsessed with him, especially when he writes her songs.

She currently resides in her hometown of San Antonio with her husband, twin daughters, and their bunny. Drop her a line. She loves hearing from readers.

RELEASE BLITZ: The Apple Tree by Jewel E. Ann

Posted on

The Apple Tree by Jewel E. Ann is now live! 

He’s a single dad starting over in a new town. She’s a relentless flirt with a penchant for trouble, ten years younger than him, and the babysitter. What could go wrong?

Eve has just graduated from high school, but she doesn’t know what’s next aside from working at the local motel, spying on Kyle, her neighbor, and stealing apples from his orchard. If she doesn’t figure things out soon, she’ll be stuck at home and treated like a child forever.

Kyle is a single dad and the new football coach who needs a babysitter for his adorable son. When he meets Eve, there’s an instant connection because she reminds him of someone—himself. But Eve is the preacher’s daughter, off-limits, and Kyle has already had his heart trampled by his ex.

After earning his son’s affection with her homemade apple sauce and youthful spirit, Eve asks Kyle to teach her things like driving his fishing boat and shooting his hunting bow. Despite his better judgment, he agrees, but swears Eve to secrecy so no one gets the wrong idea about them.

Their playful banter and innocent flirting crosses a line, and Kyle misses the heartbreaking secret Eve’s hidden in plain sight.

When tragedy strikes, can they find their way back to each other?
