DUET RELEASE BLITZ: Nights With Him and Forbidden Nights by Lauren Blakely

Lauren Blakely has reworked, recast and re-recorded the audiobooks in her JOY DELIVERED duet! NIGHTS WITH HIM, a sizzling one-night-stand romance, and FORBIDDEN NIGHTS, a steamy best-friends-to-lovers romance, from the #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, are available now!

 

 

Thirty nights of pleasure. Thirty nights of bliss. Thirty nights of being wanted in ways I hadn’t ever been wanted, and had desperately longed to be…

 

 

A brand new full production of this forbidden romance from #1 NYT Bestselling author Lauren Blakely performed by Rose Dioro and Ryan West, with additional performances by Samantha Brentnmoor and JF Harding!

I didn’t know who the smoldering man in the expensive suit was that first night.

Only that he was commanding. Intense. And exactly what I needed to forget my heartbreak.

But there’s no forgetting him the next day when Jack Sullivan walks into my office.

Philanthropic billionaire, brilliant businessman, my brand-new client…And off-limits in every possible way.

We should have walked away. Instead, we made a new arrangement. Thirty nights. No promises. Just stolen moments in penthouses, in Paris hotel rooms, on Manhattan balconies.

But the deeper we go, the harder it is to pretend this is just physical. Because when Jack starts to share the things he loves with me—the symphony, books, late nights exploring the city—he’s impossible to resist. And the more nights we spend tangled in pleasure, the more he owns my once-guarded heart.

Soon, I start to believe in something more.

But Jack doesn’t do love. His past still owns too much of him. And no matter how deep we fall, some risks feel too impossible to take.

Unless I can convince him that what we have is worth breaking every rule.

SYNOPSIS:

 

My best friend is gorgeous, wildly successful, and loves to spoil me.

He’s also sworn off love.

Which is why Nate Harper is the perfect man to help me.

I’ve spent my life being in control. Now I want to learn how to let go, and Nate decides he’s the only one who can teach me.

If anyone can show me how to surrender, it’s my confident, outrageously flirty friend.

The deal? No strings. No feelings. No risks.

As we travel to London, New York, and decadent tropical islands, he proves just how good giving in can feel.

It’s only an arrangement. Nothing more.

Except now he’s looking at me differently.

Touching me like he doesn’t want to stop.

Kissing me like he wants these late nights to keep going.

And suddenly, what started as casual feels a lot like something real.

But his scars run deep.

His heart’s on ice.

And our friendship means too much to risk it.

Unless I can convince him some things are worth the fall.

REVIEW:

Lauren Blakely has reworked the audiobook of her sizzling best-friends-to-lovers romance, Forbidden Nights. Now a full cast production, it’s performed in duet narration by Andi Eloise and Sean Masters, who delivered fantastic performances. Samantha Brentmoor and JF Harding round out the cast creating an unputdownable listening experience. I positively devoured it, listening all the way through in a single day!

A steamy, heart-melting best-friends-to-lovers romance, Lauren Blakely’s Forbidden Nights proves that sometimes your perfect match has been right there, in front of you all along. Casey, the fiercely independent CEO of an adult toy company, enlists her charming best friend, Nate, a man who’s generous with everything but his heart, to help her with “lessons in seduction.” Their playful arrangement quickly spirals into something far more intense than either of them anticipated. Their chemistry is off-the-charts combustible, blending laugh-out-loud banter with scorching, slow-burn tension that makes every touch, every glance, utterly intoxicating.

Blakely crafted a deliciously emotional journey as Nate and Casey navigate the blurred lines between friendship and desire to risk it all for love. Nate’s guarded heart and Casey’s romantic vulnerabilities added layers of depth to their steamy connection. The witty dialogue, explosive passion and tender vulnerability made this an addictively heartfelt romance. Five smooches from me for Forbidden Nights by Lauren Blakely!

REVIEW:

 

Lauren Blakely has reworked the audiobook of her scorching, emotionally charged one-night-stand romance, Nights With Him. It’s now a full cast production featuring duet narration by Rose Dioro and Ryan West, who delivered an incredible performance, full of the kind natural chemistry that these characters required. Samantha Brentmoor and JF Harding complete the cast and round out this story into a truly addictive listening experience. I couldn’t pause it! I listened straight through in a single day, burning through two pairs of Air Pods in the process.

This no-strings-attached, forbidden romance between Michelle, a sharp-witted relationship therapist, and Jack, the irresistibly charismatic CEO of an adult toy company, kicks off when they cross paths in a hotel bar. Their instant chemistry leads to a night of unforgettable passion, and an agreement to keep things strictly physical. But as their encounters grow hotter and more frequent, the walls around Jack’s wounded heart begin to crumble, revealing a vulnerability that makes their connection impossible to deny.

Blakely masterfully balances sizzling, intimate moments with deep emotion, crafting a story that’s as heartwarming as it is steamy. The forbidden tension—Michelle’s professional boundaries clashing with Jack’s emotional baggage—adds delicious complexity to their slow-burn romance. With off-the-charts chemistry and a hero whose redemption arc will melt your heart, Nights With Him is a seductive, soul-stirring and satisfying read! Five smooches from me for Lauren Blakely’s Nights With Him!

RELEASE BLITZ WITH EXCERPT: I Could Be Yours by Helena Hunting

I COULD BE YOURS, a new enemies-to-lovers, second-chance destination wedding romance from New York Times Bestselling Author, Helena Hunting, is out now!

Scroll down for an excerpt!

 

 

I am absolutely not going to fall for the best man.

 

 

The best man ghosted me six years ago after kissing me, and now I have to do every wedding event under the sun with him.

Nate Stiles is the definition of serious. Furrowed brow? Check. Rain cloud personality? Double check.

I shouldn’t be thinking about the fact that our kiss was the best one of my life right now. I should be planning the bachelorette party of the millennium.

I shouldn’t be wondering when Nate became such a good dancer after we got roped into salsa lessons with the happy couple. I should be mentally ticking off boxes on my bridal checklists.

I shouldn’t be wondering what it would be like if I didn’t hate Nate Stiles. I should be holding strong against a man who doesn’t believe in love.

My name is Essie Lovelock. I am a reformed love obsessed fairytale fanatic and I’m determined to be the best maid of honor my best friend could ever have.

And I am absolutely not going to fall for the best man.

EXCERPT:

Essie

I snap several pictures, but the mirror doesn’t allow me to fully capture the miles of poofy satin, tulle, and lace that make up this wildly ostentatious dress. My best friend, Rix, the bride-to-be, should be here any minute, and I want to give her a reason to smile. She’s been stressing over every wedding detail lately. Tonight, we’re having dinner to tick all the boxes on the upcoming bridal shower and the stag and doe. Rix is determined everything go smoothly, which is why I’m here ahead of her, checking on the dresses. I take my role of maid of honor seriously—most of the time anyway—but when I saw this dress, I couldn’t resist trying it on.

The chime of the door signals her arrival. “Trixie Rixie, I have something amazing to show you!” I singsong as I grab a suit jacket from the rack. Me and my makeshift groom twirl into the viewing area, belting out the lyrics to our favorite slow-dance song from high school.

Except my best friend is not standing in the middle of the store. It’s her soon-to-be brother-in-law, Nate Stiles. Looking wildly uncomfortable. And ungodly gorgeous. And also horrified and unimpressed. How someone can wear so many feelings at the same time is an absolute wonder.

His delightfully dark brows pull together, chocolate eyes narrowing, full lips pulling down. “What in the actual fuck?”

“What are you doing here?” I attempt to backtrack, but this dress has more yards of material than freaking Fabricland. I step on the train and topple backwards, landing on the floor with an oof. My makeshift suit-jacket groom goes flying. The hoop skirt flips up, and I raise my arm just in time to prevent it from smacking me in the face.

I feel like a flipped-over beetle as I struggle to right myself.

Uma, the sales associate who has been our go-to for all wedding-dress-related issues, rushes over. “Oh my goodness! Are you okay?”

Nate’s stupidly pretty, displeased face appears above me, and he extends a hand. “That’s a loaded question.”

I ignore his offer of assistance and try, again, to right myself, but the freaking hoop is a menace. Nate’s face is a telling shade of red. I am ten thousand percent sure my underwear is showing, and probably ninety percent of my ass since it’s a thong. My mortification doubles.

Nate disappears, and two strong hands slide under my arms. A moment later I’m on my feet. I fight the goose bumps that skitter across my skin. The hoop skirt somehow flips up again, but this time I’m not fast enough to keep it from hitting me in the face. I jerk my head back and connect with his chin.

Nate grunts and releases me. I wobble perilously before settling, still on my feet thankfully.

“Are you okay?” Uma asks again.

“I’m fine. Just peachy. Thanks so much. I’m very sorry.” I can’t die of embarrassment today, not when Rix is counting on me.

I spin, and the excessively poofy skirt flares, returning to the appropriate location. I bet it looks so cool. But I can’t confirm this because Nate is glaring at me, his thick, defined forearms crossed over his equally thick, defined chest. The Stileses have excellent genes. All three brothers are ridiculously good looking. But Nate has that tall-dark blond-and-grumpy thing going, and I’m such a fan.

I shouldn’t be, based on our history, but I tend to be attracted to the wrong men—including the one standing in front of me, looking displeased.

REVIEW:

 

I Could Be Yours by Helena Hunting is a sizzling, emotionally charged destination wedding romance full of heat and second-chance vibes! When Essie, the bride’s fiercely loyal best friend, comes face-to-face with Nate, the best man who ghosted her six years ago, their explosive chemistry reignites in a whirlwind of stolen glances, razor-sharp banter and unresolved tension.

Hunting is a masterful at balancing scorching, slow-burn passion with heartfelt vulnerability, and she delivers this here as Essie and Nate confront their history, painful pasts and the undeniable pull between them. The tropical wedding setting adds an escapist vibe, while the regret, longing, and red-hot desire of their budding relationship makes this reunion utterly addictive. Hunting leaned into her signature blend of wit, steam and raw emotion to craft a romance that was as intoxicating as it was cathartic.

I listened to the audiobook, narrated in duet by one of my favorites, Teddy Hamilton, and a new-to-me narrator, Savannah Peachwood. These two were so in-sync, absolutely nailing their performances and bringing to life these characters and all their chemistry, heat and emotion. I loved it! Five smooches from me for I Could Be Yours by Helena Hunting!

RELEASE BLITZ: Enemies to Lovers by Lani Lynn Vale

ENEMIES TO LOVERS, an all-new mafia romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author, Lani Lynn Vale, is out now!

 

 

Baker Ritter knew how to pick them…

 

 

Baker Ritter knew how to pick them.

She met the man she thought she was going to marry in middle school, gave him some of the best years of her life, for him to leave her pregnant and alone hours before she’s due to have his baby.

To make matters worse, he brings his side chick to the birth, and she’s left with a decision—fight for what she wants, or cut her losses.

What she should’ve done was cut her losses. What she does instead is take him back and experiences what it’s like to live in hell.

When she’s at the lowest of the low, she calls her dad, an ex-con, who sends the one person he knows that can fix it all.
Copper Clayborne.

***

Copper Clayborne has no time for nonsense—that nonsense being a woman and a baby.

But that woman’s dad saved his life in prison and kept saving it until he was strong enough to save himself.

He owes everything to Baker’s dad, so of course he says yes when he asks to let Baker move in with him.

That doesn’t mean that he has to have anything to do with her.

He’s got a business to fix—then bring down in the most fantastic, public way possible.

He’s also got years of celibacy to make up for.

He doesn’t have time to fall for the woman and her kid.

He certainly doesn’t have the mental headspace to deal with her drama.

He gives it his all, but Baker wiggles into his cracked and bleeding heart, and makes herself right at home. Whether he wants her there or not.

REVIEW:

 

The Invitation by Jodi Ellen Malpas is a seductive romance that ignites the pages with an intoxicating blend of passion, mystery and emotional depth. Jude, the enigmatic billionaire with a dangerous allure and a closely guarded secret, meets his match in Amelia, a bold, independent woman who refuses to be intimidated by his power—or the undeniable fire between them. Their chemistry is combustible, a thrilling combination of dominance and desire, and Jude’s secret adds intrigue and tension that made their connection even more irresistible.

Malpas’s storytelling is addictive and sensual with magnetic characters, an electric romance and a thrilling plot. It was an utterly unputdownable read that was tantalizingly steamy, emotionally charged and completely consuming. I am on the edge of my seat in anticipation for the release of The Surrender! Five smooches from me for The Invitation by Jodi Ellen Malpas!

COVER REVEAL: Denim & Diamonds by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland

DENIM & DIAMONDS, a new standalone contemporary romance from New York Times Bestselling Authors, Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland, releases on July 27th! Check out this cover!

 

 

Title:  DENIM & DIAMONDS
Authors:  PENELOPE WARD & VI KEELAND
Genre:  STANDALONE CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE
Cover Design:  SOMMER STEIN, PERFECT PEAR CREATIVE
Photographer:  WANDER AGUIAR
Model:  LUCAS LOYOLA
Release Date:  JULY 27, 2025

 

 

When the board of directors of my company mandated that I go to a wellness facility in small-town Maine to recharge, that shouldn’t have included:

1. Using a ladder to sneak out of the bedroom window at night and going to the local bar.
2. Getting so drunk that the bar owner brought me upstairs to sleep it off in his bed.
3. Waking up staring at the taxidermy moose head on said bar owner’s wall.
4. Falling for said bar owner who was the most drop-dead gorgeous man I’ve ever seen.

But Brock Hawkins was so much more than just the hot bar owner. He owned half the town, built log cabins with his bare hands, and was apparently the most eligible man in all of Meadowbrook.

He was also a cinnamon roll despite his seemingly rock-hard exterior.
And the last man I should’ve been falling for—because my time in this small town was limited.

I had to head back to my life in New York City, one that was the complete opposite from the kind Brock lived.

He was denim. I was diamonds.

The problem was, the sexy lumberjack wasn’t the type of man who was easy to walk away from. Hell, I couldn’t even part with his plaid shirt that had become a constant fixture wrapped around my shoulders most days, let alone think about erasing him from my life.

A life with Brock, though, would have to be all or nothing.

Go big or go home.

I just didn’t realize that choosing to go big might also mean getting my heart broken when Brock’s life took a turn neither of us saw coming.
