Steelhawks goaltender Laurent Gill has always played on the edge. Going above and beyond has made him one of the best in the league with all the money, girls, and partying that accompany success. When his best friend from high school re-enters his life, he’s tempted to push one more line. Dating and relationships aren’t Lorelei’s thing, but friends-with-benefits? Been there…
Free-spirited Lorelei Wescott has wandered the world in pursuit of creative inspiration for her art. She’s got to be over the massive crush she hid from Laurent when they were teenagers. Right? Meeting again only proves their attraction is more powerful than ever. Though she doesn’t want to ruin their friendship, desire leads to a dangerous game that finds them exploring new territory.
As the line between friendship and something stronger becomes more and more blurred, they are forced to confront feelings that end up overpowering them both.

C. Sheppard is made up of an international tag team of romance authors. Anne and Clem (A. C. get it?) met back in the dark ages of the Internet when Geocities was a thing. (Get off our lawns!). We may even have chatted over Yahoo!Messenger. (Really, get off our lawns!) We both discovered writing through a mutual love of fanfiction and reading. Though we followed different writing journeys, we were both published separately in our respective native languages.

 

Anne lives with her husband and cat in the wilds of suburbia outside Montreal, where she works part-time in a grocery store. She is an avid hockey fan. Otherwise, she finds other excuses to neglect the housework, among them knitting, reading, and diving into Google wormholes.

 

Clem lives near Paris with her husband and her son, and teaches English in high school. She enjoys needlework, baking, hockey noises, rerunning The Office, bingeing books on her e-reader until 2AM and complaining that she doesn’t get enough sleep.

When danger comes to the small town of Woodvalley Pines, Hunter vows to become the protector of local bakery owner, Rachel. But when things heat up, can this firefighter handle the burn?
Rachel was finally happy. She had a place to call home, amazing friends, and a successful bakery. Then her past found her. Now Hunter Campbell was in her kitchen, acting like a caveman. After months of only grunting at her, one little incident, and he has the audacity to tell her she’s not allowed out without him. She couldn’t decide what terrified her more about her new bodyguard – the giant hulk scaring off her customers, or the fire in her belly that made her heart race every time he was near.
Local firefighter Hunter was a man of few words. But if ever there was a time to talk, it was now. Rachel was in danger and there was no way he was going to let anything happen to his stubborn little fairy. It didn’t matter that he’d spent months keeping his distance. Or that she had the power to shatter his heart and then stab him to death with the shards. This was happening. She could bang as many baking pans as she liked. He wasn’t going anywhere. She was stuck with him.
Fighting fires was nothing new to Rachel or Hunter, but surrendering to the heat of the flames was a battle neither of them were prepared for.

A doctor with a name crisis.
A mother with a child stuck in a hospital ward.
A way to raise money for kids for the holiday season.
A calendar in need of a December doctor.
Leeona isn’t taking no for an answer. Her charity calendar needs one more hot doctor to agree to model, and quickly. Stephen Clause is smart and sexy – basically everything she’s looking for. She’ll do anything to convince him to sign on to the project.
Stephen has no interest in being Dr. December. There are already enough issues in his life stemming from the last name Clause without adding something else to the pile. The problem is, the feisty woman asking for a favour doesn’t know when to give up.
The comment was meant as a joke and perhaps to embarrass her just enough to give up the ghost. He never expected her to agree to fulfill his entire naughty wish list in exchange for volunteering to pose as her sexy Santa.

When Cole Johnson was eight-years-old, he married Rose Prescott. Never mind that the aisle was made of holiday table runners, she wore an old lace curtain, and her brother performed the ceremony in a musty basement.
Twenty-four years later, Cole is more in love than ever and ready to wed Rose for real. This time, it’ll be at an exquisite wedding venue and the minister will know how to read. But that’s not all. He wants to give Rose the life he’s always dreamed of: a big house with a picket fence, twin boys, a family dog, and a rock solid 401K.
But Rose doesn’t seem to want any of it – not even a little. Because it’s not at all the future she covets. In fact, it’s the exact opposite. The thought of a hefty mortgage payment and a minivan full of children isn’t just suffocating… it’s insufferable.
As the wedding approaches, Cole grows uneasy and can’t help but feel like Rose is hiding something. Despite his suspicions, the day of their wedding arrives without a hitch. The question is, how will the day end?

It was a job like any other,
In a beautiful city I’d visited before.
Nothing spectacular about any of it,
Except he was in town too.
What were the odds?
My best friend, my oldest friend.
The boy I’d crushed on briefly in high school
We hadn’t seen each other in a few years,
But I planned to show him my favorite parts of the city.
To laugh and drink together, to just have fun.
That was it.
But one kiss turned into another, and the night was ours.
But was it the start of something else?
Or would it always be just one night?

A Chance at All by Angela K. Parker

Cover Designer – Angela K. Parker

A kiss is just a kiss until it isn’t.

 

Recently divorced, Nalah Monroe is preparing to leave her past behind. A vacation with her best friend is first on her list. When her flight is delayed last minute, she’s left with one feasible option—to stay with her younger brother. Only, there’s a catch: she must spend Christmas with her family and her brother’s best friend, Nicoli Burns, in tow.

 

When Nicoli Burns returns to his hometown to escape his past, he crashes with his best friend until he finds a new home. He doesn’t expect to be housemates with Nalah, the woman he’s always had eyes for but was deemed off-limits. He tries to keep his distance, but her presence and their past draw them closer with every glance and touch.

 

As Nicoli helps Nalah move forward with her life, his closes in around them.

 

She has sacrificed her life once before. Will she risk it again for a chance with him?

Joy has returned the the small town she never really had any intention to return to. With her mother now gone she must settle her estate. The sooner she gets that done the sooner she can return to her life in the city. The home and shop her mother owned is old and starting to crumble in some places. She would love to just tear it down but it protected by historical structure laws. She can sell it however she would need to put time and money into it which gives her a headache. Charlie, a local and a contractor, gives her an idea of what she is looking at at tries to persuade her to put in the effort to restore the place. They butt heads constantly but as they are both strong willed neither is really willing to back down. These two also share a mutual attraction that they refuse to acknowledge but the more time the spend together the harder it is to ignore. Who will win this war of wills?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There’s a reason that I’ve read numerous books by this author and keep coming back! They know exactly how to hook you and hold your attention from the very beginning to the last page. This is the second installment in the Fall River series, but you can read it as a standalone if you prefer. This story expertly weaves themes of love, loss, and the struggle between past and present. Joy and Charlie seem to be pretty opposite. I actually loved that the grumpy character was female for once while the sunshine was our male lead. The author skillfully develops both characters, allowing readers to empathize with their struggles. The dialogue crackles with wit an authenticity, letting you feel the chemistry that simmers beneath their conflicts. This is a heartfelt romance with high emotional stakes and plenty of sincerity. I highly recommend picking this up and getting lost for the weekend!

I’ve read multiple books by this author and for good reason. They have a brilliant way of crafting a story that pulls you in and refuses to let go. This is the first book in The Fall River series that is full of romance, drama, and adventure. I found myself rooting for both Hailey and Noah as soon as they were introduced. The chemistry between them sizzles and leaps off the pages. The story flows seamlessly, and it is more than your typical contemporary romance. Don’t let the page count put you off either because it sucks you in making it feel like a much shorter book. Pick this up if you’re looking to start a series with some spicy romance that will keep you on your toes!

The Fixer (Fall River Series) by G. K. Brady. I’m loving this series and ready to move to Fall River. In this story we get to know Joy who left Fall River a long time ago and moved to the city to become something and she has succeeded. When her mom leaves her a historical run down building she has no choice but to go back. She is back in town for one reason only, demolish this old building and go back to the city. She asks around for the best person for the job and everyone recommends Charlie. Charlie is amazing at his craft but he restores old buildings and brings them back to life, he doesn’t destroy them. He’s mad at the fact someone wants to do that. Charlie & Joy begin by butting heads and it doesn’t get better anytime soon. Charlie informs Joy that she can’t destroy it because it is a historical property and to sell it she will have to restore it. Joy finally allows Charlie to restore it but that leaves her in town a lot longer than she planned. While there she spends more and more time with Charlie and while they do butt heads there is a attraction bubbling up as well. Such a fun small town romance!

They are written with a lot of heart and are steamy as well. This is a well written story about Cody and Cat. He is a cop that has signed himself off of love and she is looking to find herself a cowboy. What she didn’t expect was to find Cody. I enjoyed them and what they brought to the story. Their journey and growth throughout the story made it easy and entertaining to read. I enjoyed their connection and hoped they found their HEA at the end. Their story is a fast paced, hard to put down story. An engaging story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book and I look forward to seeing what is next for this author.

After reading the first book in this series, I couldn’t wait to get straight into this book. This is a great addition to the series, and the right book to carry on from book 1. I loved getting to know Charlie and Joy’s characters. They had such opposing views on the building and yet they were clearly both drawn to each other.
As with the first book, this one is well written and interesting to read. I was pulled into the story and enjoyed it from start to finish. I always enjoy this authors writing style and I am looking forward to what else this series has to offer.

Having read other books by this author, I was excited to see a new series. This is the start of a great romantic series, focused on two people who really shouldn’t have a connection with each other and yet it is there and undeniable either way. Their chemistry, and the push and pull between them was interesting to read about
I thought the overall story was thoroughly enjoyable. I liked how it set the scene for what felt like not just the book for the series to come. I was invested in the story the author was telling and wanted to know more about the characters. For me, this is a strong start to a new series.

There is nothing better than a great ongoing snarky romance. But Cat and Cody are out to get on each other’s nerves. They are both the devil in disguise, just ask them. Cody is a single dad and a cop. Cat on the other hand has had a crappy year, living in the small town of Woodvalley Pines, she is determined to find her happiness. This story is fast paced and the main characters are snarky to each other. Which makes for a great read. This is a romance to remember, so fun to read and watch Cat and Cody work through their differences. I really enjoyed this story, and know you will too. I have read other stories from this author and she never disappoints. Get ready for another must have series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Fall Rivers series. This is a very entertaining enemies to lovers romance set in a small town. There is drama, angst, family, and plenty of tension and chemistry, as two people who are complete opposites find themselves placed together.
Joy Holliday is a city girl, who returns to the little town to sort out a property that has been left to her. All Joy wants is to tear it down and move back on with her life. However things aren’t straight forward. Joy needs to bring the building up to standards if she wants the sell it (tearing it down isn’t an option) and this is how she meets Charlie.

Charlie has fallen in love with the building and wants nothing more than to restore it to its former glory, however one thing he doesn’t want is to deal with the attitude of the now owner.
Can they work together at least until this project is complete? And is all the attitude and animosity between them hiding a spark that threats to burn them both?
This was an enjoyable read and I really enjoyed the tension and connection between Joy and Charlie. Even when they seemed like the worst match ever somehow it just works.

I love Anne, she is passionate about what she believes in and wants and she seems to have a problem trusting. Hunter’s character was great too.

Check out the book I think you will enjoy it too. This can be read as a stand alone but the series is really good.

Strings Attached (A Braebeach Rockstar Romance) by Loriana Cappello – Review by Shea Gilkerson

Strings AttachedStrings Attached by Loriana Cappello
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ash is busking for some cash when a young woman catches his eye. He recognizes Calla from secondary school, where he remembers falling for her, although they never had a relationship. She is home in Braebeach from college for the summer, visiting the home of her grandparents where she grew up. Her relationship with her dad is nonexistent, and her mom is only interested in whatever new man she happens to be with at any given moment.

As Ash finishes up his playing and loads his car, he hears an “Ow” and turns to see Calla fall on her butt, holding her head in confusion. According to the witness, Calla was too busy staring at Ash across the street to see the giant road sign she ended up walking into. Ash snatches the opportunity to gather Calla up and get her to the hospital to be checked out.

As the story progresses, Ash and Calla both share their past relationships and experiences, inner turmoil, feelings for one another and their hopes and dreams. Since they both had been pining for one another for 5 years, they decided to take the summer with no promises and see where it leads. Both of them having opportunities to follow their dreams forces them to take a long look at how they feel about one another and what they’re willing to risk in one area to achieve what they want in others.

Cast of characters is excellent, there’s sweetness and a little spice, chemistry, inner turmoil, back story and a beautiful journey. I really enjoy these books.

Betrayal (Choosing Family Series) by Jennifer Raines – Review by Michelle Puett

Betrayal (Choosing Family Book 3)Betrayal by Jennifer Raines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Anna wants to provide a childcare center close to work for single moms. Hunter likes to compete with his dad. Hunter bought out the building that Anna planned to place the childcare center in. She finds out who Hunter really is and its on from there. There is tension between the two as sparks fly no matter how much Anna may not want them to. But some secrets are to big to stay hidden between these two. It was easy to read and Anna and Hunter are easily likable. I did enjoy the twists and turns, the witty banter between the two and could feel the tension between them but the chemistry as well. I would recommend reading it if you like banter and enemies to lovers.

The Fixer (Fall River Series) by G. K. Brady – Review by Angela Shirley

The Fixer (Fall River, #2)The Fixer by G.K. Brady
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Joy does not want to be in River Falls, years of putting distance between her and her home town has been erased in one day. With her mom’s passing she has been called to deal with her mother’s estate but there is one glitch, her mother’s shop, to be able to sell it she has to bring it up to code and that’s were the bane of her life comes into play, Charlie Hunnicutt.

Charlie is an expert in restoration and loves his home town of River Falls, but when Helene daughter arrive she becomes the thorn in his side, not really caring about the town she is constantly pushing him and when the initial meeting did not go exactly as planned he starts doubting how he will win over this hard hitting woman.

As they start working together and get to see inside each other, sparks start to fly but can Joy invest in the relationship Charlie wants and needs.

This story is a enemies to lovers and is beautiful to read, although part of a series the book can be read as a stand alone story. The story weaves beautifully through the thoughts of Joy reliving some of the horrors of her past but then developing the feelings toward Charlie which she is conflicted with and not sure about.

I loved the character of Charlie and his laid back attitude was a great to counter balance to Joy’s straight forward ADHD mannerisms. The secondary characters also added an extra layer to the story. I can’t wait to read more of this series going forward.
