Fairy magic has no place in the modern world – or does it?

Ashley Adams doesn’t have time for haters. Already too busy dealing with dead bodies after her stepmother purchased a mortuary, she is ready to put the lid on her judgmental peers and finally bury her high school experience. Falling in love was the last thing on her mind.

Too bad fate had other plans when the local celebrity lands in her life.

Pop sensation Harry James is ordered by the court to attend public school for his senior year or face jail time. He can’t afford any bad press if he wants his summer tour to go ahead. But when he ducks into the mortuary where Ashley works to escape a mob of fans, he wonders if he is chasing the wrong dream.

High school mean girls, a controlling publicist, and scheming stepsisters want to keep Ashley away from Harry. After all, everyone knows the popstar doesn’t belong with the social outcast.

If only they had some fairy magic to help them find their happy ending…

Ashes is a fun and snarky standalone YA romance. If you like captivating characters, emotional twists and turns, Fairies and Cinderella retellings, then you’ll adore MK Harkins’ fast-paced tale.

Contains mild swearing and off-page violence.

Euphoric Wonderland is Ryan Becker’s seminal literary work which was largely inspired by the relationship he has with his parents, both of whom are poets in their own rights and words. His father is a self-taught classical pianist, as well as an avid Shakespeare fan and aficionado. Those two elements of the fine arts were instilled in Ryan at an early age and were quickly absorbed through his father’s reading to him about famous musicians and writers.  

As an avid collector of vinyl records, upon hearing the music of The Beatles for the first time, specifically their Abbey Road album, Ryan knew his destiny was to write. “Every step of this life’s journey is a learning experience,” proclaims Mr. Becker. He further adds, “The Beatles taught me how not to have hate in my heart, why we must help people in need, and to never hesitate to openly express my feelings in any situation.”  

Ryan credits his even-tempered, soft-spoken mother for his development as a human being. He tries to emulate her cool-under-pressure manner as well as her kind and empathetic heart, which she shares with anyone in need. It is those characteristics he’s inherited that allow him to express himself through his writing.  

Ryan’s childhood carried with it some undeniably emotional bumps and bruises, explaining “Everyone has struggles, and many have their inner demons. The only way for me to exorcize them is by taking them out of my brain and putting them down on paper.”  

Writing can be a wonderful escape from reality as well as a fantastic way of feeling comfort within one’s true reality.  

Watching reruns of Smallville on repeat, Ryan asserts that the character of Clark Kent, portrayed by Tom Welling, has taught him a few things about growing up. For example, it helped him learn how to speak and interact better with others—trust in people who treat him right and never disregard someone who has his best interests at heart.  

It is why he proclaims, “Don’t ever let anyone take a torch to your dreams. Use that fire to motivate you to achieve your greatness, no matter in which arena you might be endeavoring!”

Kellie

As the event coordinator for a Vegas hotel, I’m in charge of planning a celebrity wedding meant to showcase our venue as the ultimate dream destination in the marriage capital of the world. The bride is an up-and-coming swimsuit model, and the groom is Harrison Hayes, the golden guy of golf. There’s just one problem: Harrison and I have history. We were high school sweethearts and my dad was his mentor and coach. When it became clear Harrison had a bright future in the sport, he left me and our small town behind. Now I have no choice but to set my conflicted feelings aside, because if this wedding doesn’t go off without a hitch, my career in hospitality management is over.

Harrison

When my publicity team tells me I need to get married to improve my image, they hand me a plan for a highly-publicized Vegas wedding, complete with a bride of their choosing. There’s just one problem: the venue’s event coordinator is the one who should be standing next to me at the altar. Even though it would please tour sponsors and land me lucrative endorsement deals, I can’t go through with a sham wedding. Unfortunately, Kellie’s job is on the line, and I’m not going to let her down a second time. Can I convince the only girl I’ve ever loved to stand in as the bride for appearances’ sake? And more importantly, after the publicity photos are taken, will I be able to prove to her that my love is real?

What happens in Oasis, stays in Oasis.
Lisette’s father killed the King. His execution leaves Lisette alone, disgraced, and without the magic he intended to pass on to her. In Oasis, that’s a problem. Glutted with enchanted performers, Oasis is a sin city where courtiers pay in gold to drink, gamble, and above all, be entertained. To survive on its competitive streets, Lisette peddles paltry illusions in place of magic.
Desperate to prove herself, Lisette enters into a deadly competition to be chosen as the highest-ranked magician in the world, the Queen’s Jester. But her rival, the irritatingly handsome Luc, possesses the one thing Lisette does not―real magic. Lisette will do anything to win, but when evidence implicating the Queen in her husband’s murder surfaces, Lisette must choose between redeeming her family name, or seizing the fame she’s hungered for her entire life.

Kristopher Simon

A career, marriage, children. Kristopher had it all. Unlike the other Titans, he was on top of the world until he realized the glass house he lived in was full of cracks. Left with no choice but to end his marriage, he was content with his soon-to-be bachelorhood. His only focus was on:

– His family

– His promotion

That all changed one sultry night in the Bahamas at a medical retreat where he meets the newest physician at his hospital.

Alessia Johnston

Fresh off of her residency, Alessia lands a job in the emergency room of a local hospital. After years of hard work and other sacrifice, she now has her whole life ahead of her. Her focus is on:

– Her career

– Her family

Never did she imagine she would end up back in the world of the Titans, especially after she was once a surrogate for Anton and Elsa Kingston back in college. Fate had other ideas, though. After being thrown into the path of the Dr. Kristopher Simon, she gives in to a night of passion that changes everything for the both of them. If their professional relationship isn’t enough to keep them apart, his messy, and public, divorce should be. Things aren’t always what they seem, however, and Kristopher becomes embroiled in a scandal that sends everything between them up in flames. When the dust settles, will there be anything left to salvage?

Ten years ago, my teenage dreams ended with a kiss and a bully’s fist.
The target of a brutal attack, Wesley became lost to me, his mind wiped of the six months we spent together, writing songs and creating a bond that ran soul-deep.
Blamed for the tragedy and forced to remain at a distance, I watched Wesley’s rise to fame as he sang the songs we wrote, the only things he remembered from that lost period of his life.
When a decade-old songbook I published comes to light, accusations fly that I’m a plagiarist, stealing Wesley’s lyrics.
What a joke.
But after facing down his lawyer, I wipe clean a personal debt and make a quick exit.
Only I don’t get far. Because Wesley is outside, waiting.
His mind may have forgotten me, but as soon as our eyes meet, something in him recognizes something in me.
The chemistry between us is explosive, and I can’t resist the moth-to-flame tug into his world — even if it’s only for one night.
This could be our second chance… Unless his instant attraction means his memories are returning.
And if they do…
He’ll wish he’d remembered to forget me.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely adored this novel because it brought back memories for me growing up, as well as raising my two daughters when they were young teens and getting into baking! The character development was really well written, even though this is the first time I have read one in this series. I didn’t have a hard time picking it up and reading! This book is great for young teen girls, even if they aren’t into baking! I was very satisfied with this book! Great job by the author!

Genre – Contemporary Romance
Page Count – 596

Philip has a problem.

Namely, his relationship to the throne.

Well, that and paparazzi hounding him, plus family obligations on steroids.

Years ago, the notoriously private Earl of Arburne and Glasgow’s #1 most eligible bachelor decided relationships were impossible with his unique pressures.

So he avoids anything serious. Hell, he avoids dating at all.

When he lands in yet another tabloid headline, he has the brilliant (or brilliantly stupid) idea to give the tabloids what they want.

A romance.

No one needs to know it’s fake.

But when he enlists beautiful, bold, and outspoken Anna McDonnell, his best friend’s little sister, he finds himself with a whole new set of troubles.

Anna’s rules for their ruse make their arrangement feel far from pretend. Counterfeit feels more and more like something authentic.

And in the realm of royalty and public scrutiny, anything real and pure can’t survive.

Philip has a problem.

Will this liason be a love-match or will their fling fall flat?

Fairly Royal is the page-turning third book in The Fair Series of contemporary romances. If you like bold heroines, billionaire heroes, and plenty of steam, then you’ll adore Grace Grahme’s royal romance.

I love reading and I love writing even more- I balance (not always successfully) writing, a career, a family, and a menagerie of rescued dogs, cats, and backyard chickens.

Writing allows me to live vicariously through my characters, escape to worlds and experiences I might never have, and my characters always have a witty response or a perfect retort. (no more 5 hours later having the thought of ‘that’s what I should have said!’)

I’m an avid coffee consumer and adult beverage fan. I love catching up with my friends on Marco Polo and working out at the gym. I avoid cleaning, cardio, and carbs- unless it’s an emergency.

I carve out writing time by starting my day at 515am. Which unfortunately means I’m in bed earlier than I’d like. And I still don’t get my to-do list done!

Bobbi has walked the line between two worlds for a while now. Now those two worlds are life and death.

New York City, 1995

As a teen, Roberta “Bobbi” Wallace made her debut in high society. Now she’s making her debut as detective only a few years after a dare led her to join the NYPD.

Max Buckley, a product of Brooklyn and a fifteen-year veteran of the NYPD, is forever changed when Bobbi is assigned to replace a cocky rookie killed in the line of duty.

New York City is under siege, possessed by a truly diabolical serial killer dubbed The Bathtub Murderer. Assigned to a task force to identify and stop the killer—and against Max’s best advice—Bobbi goes undercover to catch the man killing women who look like her.

As the squad attempts to solve the puzzle of the serial killer’s bloody obsession with hazel-eyed brunettes, Max and Bobbi try to balance their jobs with their undeniable connection. Now that Bobbi has stolen his heart, can Max prevent her from becoming the Bathtub Murderer’s next victim?

The Blood Obsession Series follows the detectives of the NYPD’s 10th Precinct on their quest to bring a cold-blooded serial killer to justice. Along the way there is action, romance, violence, descriptions of voodoo rituals, and graphic depictions of both consensual and nonconsensual sex and murder. Please be advised that many readers will find the story chilling, disturbing and triggering.

 Eat a crumpet. Check. Say “bloody hell” in an English pub. Check. Solve three murders and fall in love? Definitely not on the list. But when England dishes up murder, even an American girl knows it’s time to channel her inner Agatha Christie. 

American Eliza Darcy travels to Merry Old England to partake in a Darcy/Bennet family reunion for one reason: to solve the estrangement between her father and uncle. Not long after Eliza’s arrival and exploration of the vast estate of her ancestors, a dead body surfaces. Murder and mayhem replace afternoon teas and flirting with her British heartthrob. Eliza has every intention of keeping her snoot out of official Scotland Yard business, but when clues to the murder begin to merge with her investigation into her family’s rift, her inner wannabe sleuth self-activates. 

With the help of her batty great-aunt and the sexy Heath Tilney, Eliza hurries to untangle the web of lies and secrets. As corpses start to pile up faster than the clues, Eliza fears the estate’s family graveyard will swallow another body: hers.

Jace has spent his entire life on the run from the Messengers, celestial beings from another realm who hunt his kind: Watchers, the fallen angels responsible for corrupting humanity … Then he meets Cyrus, the handsome Messenger with an easy smile who finally makes him want to stay in one place. The problem? Jace is the last descendant of the first disgraced Watcher, placing him just one rung below demons on the Messengers’ most-wanted list.

But Cyrus isn’t like other Messengers. He came to Sin City—the center of the angelic conflict—seeking peace, not more war. He doesn’t count on falling for the moody, dark-winged Watcher from the wrong side of town. Nor does he count on learning that his true enemy lurks closer than he ever imagined. As tensions rise between the celestial clans, will love or vengeance rule?

Romeo and Juliet gets a celestial spin (and a happier ending!) in this duology featuring forbidden love, a ride-or-die demon, a supernatural casino heist, bar brawls, and banter. Intended for readers ages 18+ and best enjoyed when read in the following order: Watcher (Book 1), Messenger (Book 2).

Note: This book ends on a soft cliffhanger and contains some sensitive content. Readers may wish to check the Author’s Note for details.

When the German march across Europe reaches France, young Michelle Naget and her family join the throngs fleeing for safety. But their flight ends in capture by the Nazis, with one member of the family taken, while the rest of the family is sent back to their village of Braquis, France, to serve the enemy who has commandeered their home.

For the next four years, the Nagets live in the crosshairs of the enemy living under their roof and of the neighbors who question the family’s loyalties. Every day becomes a test of faith for Michelle-in God, in family, in the hope that the Allies will come, and in the letters from a young French rebel named Légère who promises Michelle that she will be free again.

But when the Nazis’ torment increases, and the razor-thin line between life and death narrows for the Nagets, the family’s motto, “We do what must be done,” and Michelle’s faith in God, give her the courage to face her enemy and do whatever she must to protect the family she loves.

Laurie (L.C.) Lewis is a weather-whining lover of Tom, her four kids, their spouses, and twelve amazing grandkids. She’s also crazy about crabs, nesting boxes, twinkle lights, sappy movies, and the sea. It’s documented that she’s craft-challenged and particularly lethal with a glue gun, so she set her creative juices on writing, which was less likely to burn her fingers.

Born in Baltimore, Laurie will always be a Marylander at heart, but a recent move to a house overlooking Utah Lake makes Utah her new love. Her Maryland years, spent within the exciting and history-rich corridor between Philadelphia, Baltimore, and D.C., made her a politics and history junkie. During a seven-year stint as a science-education facilitator, Laurie honed her research skills, eventually turning to writing full time.

The Letter Carrier is Laurie’s fourteenth published novel. She writes in multiple genres, penning her women’s fiction and romance novels as Laurie Lewis, and her historical fiction novels as L.C. Lewis.

She’s a RONE Award Winner (The Dragons of Alsace Farm) and was twice named a New Apple Literary Award winner in 2017 (The Dragons of Alsace Farm) and in 2018, winning Best New Fiction (Love on a Limb). She is also a BRAGG Medallion honoree, and she was twice named a Whitney Awards and USA Best Books Awards finalist.

Laurie’s next book, “Revenge Never Rests,” is a romantic suspense novel set to be released in October 2022 by Covenant Communications.

Australian Jennifer Raines writes contemporary romances set mainly in Australia, but not exclusively – think Malta, Finland, New Zealand or ?. A dreamer and an optimist, her stories are a delicious cocktail of mutual respect, passion and loyalty because she still believes in happily-ever-afters. Jennifer loves those days when words flow and the joy of writing makes the hard slog worthwhile. She’s always made up stories about strangers in the street, in a café or strolling through an airport terminal; finding inspiration in snippets of conversation, news items and the sheer puzzle of human interactions.

Jennifer is a member of Romance Writers of Australia and is a three-time finalist in the Emerald competition, 2017, 2018 (Taylor’s Law) and 2022. She’s a member of Romance Writers of New Zealand, winning the Pacific Hearts competition twice, including in 2019, with Grace Under Fire, the sequel to Taylor’s Law. She’s also a member of Romance Writers of America and has been a finalist in chapter competitions in 2019, 2020 and 2021 (Taylor’s Law).

Jennifer lives in inner-city Sydney, Australia, with the requisite number of partners (1) and animals (2). Her desk overlooks a park which nourishes her soul when she raises her head from her keyboard. She gets some of her best insights during long yin yoga poses or walking—anywhere. Jennifer adores historical romance but chose to write contemporary because she thought (wrongly) it needed less research.

Katrina

My best friend is my head. It keeps all my secrets.

Everything I’ve seen and heard in my loveless past makes sense now, and it’s led me to TJ. The faceless man I conjured in my mind. The missing puzzle piece.

I wasn’t prepared for sparks to fly, filling my life with endless love, comfort, and safety. TJ, Toby, and I are inseparable, like a genuine family. The old me is long gone. Or so I thought.

Right after I confess my love to TJ, I tumble into the black hole of hell. My perfect façade begins to crumble, and I can’t mask it anymore. Once TJ sees between the cracks, he’ll leave Toby and me, just like everyone else has. I’m a survivor, but losing him will destroy me.

TJ

When I love, I love big, and it’s my worst downfall.

After I burst through a stranger’s door, Katrina and her newborn son, Toby, are pushed into my world. My hopeful soul whispers to me that we’re meant to be together. Can I trust it, though?

On the best night of my life, the beautiful woman I gave my heart to isn’t the same one who’s kicking me out of her house right now.

My family says it’s just a phase, and I’m trying to be patient. But her unpredictable mixed signals weigh heavily on my chest. Will my heart be shattered into a million pieces again?

Katrina owns the key to my heart, and she’s the only one who can unlock it.

***This book was inspired by real-life events, but takes place in a fictional world. It features a lovable ex-NFL player turned chemistry teacher, and a single mom who’s never felt loved. It’s an intense single parent, emotionally explosive story, filled with swoony times and sweet baby moments. HEA guaranteed. Sensitive topics are addressed that may be triggering for some readers.

Reece would use the anger fueled by the strikes to an innocent to start the beginning of the turn of justice that would change the course of his life.

She was born on the streets; he was born to rule… 

Aimee Wheels loves her free-living lifestyle. She doesn’t need the trappings of money to find happiness. All she needs is her crazy friends, her job as a courier in New York City, and her skateboard. 

Sheikh Qadir Saif-Ad-Din understands the power behind money and royalty, and he knows how to wield it. When he is simultaneously dismissed, and then saved by a woman in tattered jeans and carrying a skateboard, he doesn’t know what to think—except that he wants her! 

Aimee is thrown into the world of the ultra-rich when she stops an assassination attempt against Qadir. When she discovers a deeper plot to overthrow Qadir’s family by a rival billionaire, she becomes the target. Now all she can do is pretend she is dead and love Qadir from afar. 

When Qadir is kidnapped by the men who tried to kill her, she abandons the safety of the witness protection program to save him. Can love find a way for Aimee and Qadir when a powerful billionaire has placed a price on their heads?
