THE PROPOSAL PLAY, a sexy new brother’s-best-friend, marriage-of-convenience, best-friends-to-lovers, hockey romance from #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Lauren Blakely, is available now!

Scroll down for an excerpt!

What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there—especially when your best friend becomes your husband…

My plan when I win a date in Vegas with my brother’s hockey star best friend? Poker and go to sleep early. Instead, I wake up with a ring on my finger and the sexy athlete naked in my bed.

But Asher’s my best friend too so we’ll get this annulled and laugh about this secret for years to come.

Trouble is our wedding pics went viral overnight.

Now everyone thinks we’re a real couple. We race back home, where I’ve just landed the big art commission of my dreams and he’s launching a sports charity so we need to look like we meant to tie the knot.

Easy enough. We’ll claim we’ve been secretly in love, while staying in separate rooms for the rest of the hockey season.

The last thing either one of us wants is to ruin a decade-long friendship by falling into bed again.

Trouble is, I experience a new side of my husband at home. He cooks for me, encourages me…and buys me so many toys.

And, it’s more fun to share your toys with a friend.

We’re just enjoying temporary marital benefits.

Except, the more times he calls me his wife, the more I start to wonder if Asher was ever pretending?

And if my heart is ready to take the biggest risk of all.

“…a heartfelt and steamy romance full of “it’s always been you” vibes…” ~Danielle, Red Cheeks Reads

Check out Danielle’s 5 SMOOCHES review!

EXCERPT:

It’s a soulful, lingering kiss that thrums deep in my bones. She’s soft in my arms, her breath gusting across her lips. A whimper crosses them too, and it sounds like a plea for more.

I want to swallow all her sounds, let them lead me on into the night.

Because they are not platonic.

They are not friendly.

They are unbearably sexy and needy.

Maeve Hartley tastes incredible, and this kiss rattles through my entire body, touching every damn corner of me. I don’t let go. As I kiss her more deeply, I’m struck with a cold, new clarity. It wasn’t merely affection I felt all along. It wasn’t simply lust either. It’s a whole lot more than basic attraction.

I’m wildly, annoyingly obsessed with my best friend.

Otherwise known as…my wife.

STAY TOXIC, a suspenseful new mafia romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author, Lani Lynn Vale, is available now!

He was toxic to my health, yet I wanted him anyway…

There was right, there was wrong, and then there was the in-between.

The place where normal people reside, understanding that there are two sides to every coin. People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons.

First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.

He was toxic to my health, yet I wanted him anyway.

They say the first step to healing is admitting when you have a problem.

My problem happened to be six feet two inches tall, two hundred and twenty pounds, and bearded to perfection.

Oh, and he was also the scariest guy I knew.

Meanwhile, I was the laughingstock of the city.

The woman who was cheated on by her boyfriend with her best friend, and it was captured live while a band played in the background, perfectly accenting the humiliating video.

There was no way that Shasha Semyonov would notice me.
Right?

Wrong.

I’d definitely been noticed.

THE PATH TO LOVING HIM, a steamy, laugh-out-loud enemies-to-lovers, small town standalone romance from New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, Meghan Quinn, is available now!

I have to deal with the fact that he’s the man I dream about and can’t have…

What does one do when they completely blow an interview?

If you’re me, you pick up a one-night stand with the most gorgeous man you’ve ever seen…

That’s right, after a lousy interview that could have changed everything for me, I headed over to the local small town bar to sulk when the one man I shouldn’t want walked in. And when my friend convinced me to take him back to my hotel room, I didn’t think about it, I just did it . . . well, I did him.

It was an unforgettable night, but I didn’t stay for breakfast. Instead, I got out of there and tried not to think about him again.

Everything was fine until I received a call from the interviewer saying I got the job as the assistant baseball coach at Almond Bay High. I’d be working directly under the one and only Ryland Rowley–my one-night stand.

Now, I’m not only working with him but renting the apartment above his garage. And I have to deal with the fact that he’s the man I dream about and can’t have while not letting my attraction get in the way of keeping the harmony between us. Sounds easy, doesn’t it?

It should have been, except the plan falls apart when my shower breaks, and night after night I have to slip into his house to use the bathroom only to find him in the kitchen, staring me down with those hungry, single dad eyes.

EXCERPT:

“I mean,” he says in a dark tone, taking a step forward. “Do you think it’s smart living in the apartment after we slept together?”

Oh, okay . . . *ahem*.

So he’s just going to say it like that?

Got to appreciate a man for not beating around the bush.

“I don’t see why that’s an issue,” I say.

“You don’t?” He raises a brow.

I cross my arms at my chest. “Yeah, I don’t see what the problem is. So we did it. It was fine—”

“Fine?” His eyebrows fly up so fast, I swear it blows his hair back. “You’re calling that night . . . fine?”

Well, it was more than fine. He rocked my freaking world.

Being with Ryland fulfilled so many sexual fantasies that I always wondered about.

He made me crave things I never thought I wanted.

It was freaking incredible and, hands down, the best experience of my life.

But besides the applause I want to hand over to him for a job well done, I don’t like the way he’s treating this entire interaction. It’s almost like he’s alluding that he thinks I’m in the wrong and should move.

It’s kind of comical.

Because over my dead body will I leave that apartment. I have a contract, a lease, so there is no way I’ll back down from it.

“Yeah, it was fine,” I say.

His eyes darken, and he takes one step closer, bringing us almost toe-to-toe.

“It was more than fine, and you know it.”

Title:  INDISCRETION
Author:  VI KEELAND 
Genre:  STANDALONE CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE

Model:  JEFFREY WIEGERS
Release Date:  JANUARY 13, 2025

He’s her boss.  She’s his greatest temptation.

The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed.

The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there.

When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder.

Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all.

Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking.

We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about.  He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described. Though she was also right when she’d said you two will hate each other. 

When daylight rolled around, Dawson and I attempted to straighten out the mess we found ourselves in. But it proved to be more difficult than we initially thought. Since it was a holiday weekend, there wasn’t a single room available for more than fifty miles.

I suppose things could be worse than sharing a cabin for a weekend with a handsome man you despise.

Like maybe him winding up being your new boss?

SMOOTH SAILING, the third standalone book in the Wild West MC Series from New York Times Bestselling Author, Kristen Ashley, is coming February 4th! Check out this cover!

Harlan “Hugger” McCain wasn’t ready to be welcomed into the fold. He felt like an outcast.

When the Chaos Motorcycle Club came to call, Harlan “Hugger” McCain wasn’t ready to be welcomed into the fold. They said he was a legacy. He felt like an outcast.

But he patched in anyway.

And he was all in to be a part of their not-quite-outlaw missions.

This takes him down to Phoenix, right into the orbit of Diana Armitage, a beautiful, green-eyed woman with a heart of gold and a scarily honed tendency to sacrifice for pretty much everyone she cares about, and some people she barely knows.

Hugger has been existing. Life has never given him much, now, he expects even less.

Diana lives life to its fullest. And she doesn’t keep it a secret she wants to drag Hugger right along with her.

But Hugger is certain he’s got bad blood. He’s got one foot in Chaos, one foot out. One foot in Diana’s life, one foot out.

Diana and his brothers in Chaos have their work cut out to show Hugger who he is.

That he belongs.

And he’s worthy to be loved.
