Vi Keeland can be hit or miss for me, but this sounds like the kind of classic office romance that I love to read from her. I'm sure there will be a twist, but The Boss Project has the foundation of a great read - and a compelling cover! We've got the blurb, a release... Continue Reading →
I loved the unique storyline of the first book in this series of interconnected standalones, so I'm definitely excited to check out the next brother's book!

Now, the title seems a little too on the nose, lol, and I'm not much for second chance romances, but I've gotta admit that I'm intrigued... how exactly do you write a romance based on Sleeping Beauty?

There's a new hockey romance on the way from Sarina Bowen, and it sounds sexy! I'm not a huge fan of "lessons in seduction" romances, but I've read some pretty great ones, and I really enjoyed the last book in the series (Shenanigans), so I'm excited to check this out. It should be another light... Continue Reading →
I've been meaning to check out Stacy Travis' work, and this series starter might be the perfect book to begin with!

Pride, prejudice, and flip-flops... well, that says it all! The newest beachy rom com from Sarah Ready is a new spin on a classic story, and it's sure to have plenty of lighthearted humor, memorable moments, and a unique feel.

There are certain tropes that are like catnip to me, and I'll ignore any red flags that pop up in the blurb. Am I a fan of second chance romances, especially ones with so much time since the breakup? Not at all. Do I absolutely love reality show romances and forced proximity? YES and YES.... Continue Reading →
There's a new romance on the way from Jennifer Hartmann, and I honestly have no idea what it's about... but I can't wait to dive in! Her unpredictable, unusual love stories are usually twisty and all kinds of forbidden, and I'm betting June First will be as well. The blurb is super vague, the premise... Continue Reading →
This has been an uneven series for me, but the most recent installment was EXCELLENT, so here's hoping that The Secret is too. Am I kinda nervous about this playboy-tamed romance? Oh yeah. But Max Monroe certainly has the skill to make me laugh, swoon, and fan myself while watching this manhoe fall. Also... this... Continue Reading →

Those eyes are INTENSE! This promises to be a different side of Kristy Marie, and I'm all for it. While I'm still getting to know Marie's work, I've loved the two books I've read from her so far. The Closer and Rebellious are both new adult, lighter reads - so this should be a bit... Continue Reading →
June 1st can't get here fast enough - I'm really looking forward to this one! We met this antihero in previous books in the series, and he's finally embraced his bad side.

A brand new book in a brand new series is on the way from K. Bromberg, and I'm excited! I'm a big fan of Bromberg's work, and I was sad to see her Play Hard series end, so I'm very ready to dive into whatever she writes next - and now we know what it... Continue Reading →
Get your fans ready, this one's going to be HOT! The first book in this series of interconnected standalones, The Lawyer, was my introduction to Mann's work - and boy was it spicy.

This is one of my MOST anticipated reads of the year, because this author's debut was one of the best things I read in 2021!

I hate trilogies, but I've gotta admit... I'm intrigued! Aly Martinez is a great writer (From the Embers just made my Top 20 of 2021 list), and I know she is going to give this angsty trilogy an emotional punch.

One of my most highly anticipated reads of the year... and I've got no idea what to expect!

There's a new multi-author series on the way this December, and it looks like things are about to heat up!

Continue Reading →
I'm really looking forward to this! My introduction to O'Roark's work was the slow burn, enemies to lovers goodness that is A Deal with the Devil, and it remains one of my favorite romances of the year.

Another new book from Vi Keeland, another great cover! She always draws me in with her engaging covers, and her writing is strong enough to live up to the promise.

Well this sounds interesting, and look at that great cover! I always, always look forward to new releases by Madden-Mills, and this blurb definitely has my attention. A little bit opposites attract, a little bit of fish out of water, a little second chance, and a little fake dating - all rolled into one. It's... Continue Reading →
I'm looking forward to this one! At the end of Daws' last book, Replay, there was a bombshell revelation to shake things up - and the story continues in Sweeper! This will surely read as a standalone, but the books are better together. It's probably going to be a light and sexy sports romance with... Continue Reading →
In case you missed it, Jodi Ellen Malpas revealed the cover to The Enigma, the followup to The Brit, last week!

What a great cover! I'm very, very excited about this upcoming mafia romance from J.T. Geissinger.

A brand new series by J. Saman? Sign me up! Anyone who has been following my blog long enough knows that I'm a big J. Saman fan. THREE of her books were contenders for my Top 20 of 2020 list, and I've read several other solid romances from her. Doctor Scandalous kicks off a brand... Continue Reading →
What a beautiful cover! I typically love Helena Hunting's work, but I'll openly admit that her 2021 releases haven't been working for me (yes, that includes September's When Sparks Fly). Here's hoping that things turn around in 2022! This series of interconnected small town romances has a much sweeter, almost women's fiction, vibe than her... Continue Reading →
More mafia romance is on the way! I've been enjoying this series of standalones by Michelle Heard - each story is separate, but they all have the same soapy vibe and light-dark feel (the heroine IS kidnapped, and the star IS an antihero... but probably a secretly swoony one). This one sounds like it's going... Continue Reading →
This sounds intriguing! The Mixtape was my introduction to Brittainy Cherry's work, but I've been meaning to check out her books for awhile now - her covers are GREAT, and the blurbs are equally enticing.

The whole series is coming very soon! Avery Flynn announced the first book in this series of interconnected standalones a few months ago, but she held back the release - so that all three books come out within a month of each other. I can't complain about that! We've now got three great covers, upcoming... Continue Reading →
I'm excited about this one! I love Karla Sorensen's writing, and her latest release, Forbidden, is VERY likely to make my Best of 2021 list. So I am definitely looking forward to her next book! The Lie is a standalone set in the same world as some of Sorensen's previous books, so it's the perfect... Continue Reading →
So cute! Staci Hart always has such fun covers, and the newest one is so playful. I'm loving the sounds of this enemies to lovers, small town romance, and it'll be great to dive back into this series of interconnected standalones. It's sure to be a light, playful read! For Love or Honey releases on... Continue Reading →
This cover is just STUNNING! I'm not always a big Penelope Ward fan (I check out the spoilery reviews before reading), but this cover has caught my eye and the blurb is equally intriguing. Am I the only one who thinks she's going to end up with the guy who was watching her? I'm so... Continue Reading →
Teagan Hunter writes light, steamy, sexual-tension-filled rom coms, and there's another one on the way soon!

I'm looking forward to this one! I recently got hooked on Michelle Heard's mafia romances, and there's another installment coming soon. This will definitely read as a total standalone, but we've met this assassin in the previous books, and I'm very intrigued to find out more. The vibe is new adult mafia, so the books...

It was a busy week at work, so I didn't keep up with the cover reveals well - but there were some VERY exciting one! Two are long-awaited installments in series that I love, while the other two are intriguing releases from authors whose work I enjoy. Details on all four below! I've been waiting... Continue Reading →
This sounds great! I got to know Jana Aston’s work a little bit through her series of light and sexy Christmas novellas a couple of years ago, and I’ve been eagerly anticipating the opportunity to check out her full-length books ever since.
