  Pop princess, fake prince, real temptation—her big comeback just got wildly complicated. After a very public meltdown and a canceled world tour, my music career is hanging by a thread. And now, my record label is all but telling me to kiss pop-stardom goodbye. My PR team’s brilliant solution? A fake relationship with Hollywood heartthrob Grayson Hemsley—charming on camera, and absolutely insufferable behind closed doors. But there’s a bigger secret I’ve been keeping. A teensy detail about me that the tabloids would have a field day with: I’ve never actually… done it.  There. I said it. And I’m starting to think my music is missing that authentic spark of  experience . So, I hire an escort for a one-night solution. Taio Wilkes is gorgeous, kind, hilarious, and nothing like I expected. When he discovers my true intentions, he doesn’t take my money and run. Instead, he offers something I never saw coming—friendship, and lessons in the art of intimacy without rushing the ma...

  Remi Ocean is broken. With her oversized hoodies, orange hair, and that "go fuck yourself" smile, it's obvious. And I know why. It's my fault. It's our fault. If I could stay away from her, I would. I'd let that night go. Let her go. Let the charges and the dismissal and the justice she never got burn up into ash. But I can't. Someone needs me. And me? I need her. But the good girl is starting to go bad. I'm starting to lose my mind. She's not mine anymore, and I can't let that happen. Something bad happened to Remi. And I'm the one who fucking did it. My Review I listened to the audiobook. If you are a fan of audiobooks, you will want to listen to this one. Narrators Lydia Edison and Matthew E. Berry are new to me. I enjoyed listening to them both voice Remi and Cortland.  Let me start by warning readers that the opening scene could be triggering for some. Remi endures a harsh situation. What makes it worse is that Cortland did nothing t...

  Eleanor did everything right—until life fell apart. A widowed children’s book author, she’s back in her mother’s house, being told how to grieve, how to parent, and how to stay small. Then she discovers roller derby. The Grimm Reapers of Briar Glen are loud, fierce, and unapologetic. For the first time in years, Eleanor feels like herself again. Enter  Alex Prince , a kind, steady single dad she keeps running into. First in the stands. Then at their kids’ rehearsals. And finally at an open skate where a scraped knee and a gentle touch spark feelings Eleanor thought she’d lost forever. Skate Ever After  is a Cinderella retelling about grief and healing, body-positive strength, inclusive community, and the courage to live loudly again. A swoony, heart-forward romance about finding your power—and your happily ever after—on your own terms. My Review Eleanor is trying to do the best she can with the cards that she has been dealt. With the death of her husband, she now is a s...

  Jude Kensington is the playboy of Pembroke Hills Country Club and the last person I expected to be living with this summer. Charming flirt. Billionaire bachelor. And my friend who once kissed me during a night neither of us can remember—or forget. But before things could get complicated, a surprise showed up on his doorstep. A baby. His baby. With no clue how to care for an infant and me in search of a place to live, we strike a deal: I’ll help him survive fatherhood, and he’ll give me a place to stay. Temporary. Convenient. Totally platonic. Except nothing about this arrangement feels simple. Not when I’m rocking his daughter to sleep. Not when I catch him watching me like I’m something he can’t have. And definitely not when I remember exactly how it felt to kiss him. Falling for Jude was never part of the deal. But the longer we play house, the harder it is to pretend I don’t want to be more than friends… My Review Jude and Charlotte are really great friends. So much so that Ch...

Her excellent work ethic ensures her chances. Everything seems to be coming together until a frustrating encounter with a handsome, albeit snarky new coworker shakes her bravado.

She doesn’t need any competition, and Carter’s diligence could jeopardize the promotion she’s worked so hard for. A rival in the office is bad enough, but when her boss makes her Carter’s mentor, she’s force...

  He’s not the Easter Bunny. When Nora brings a fluffy white rabbit into her kindergarten classroom, she expects squeals, giggles, and maybe a science lesson about spring. What she doesn’t expect is for the rabbit to bite her. Or to shift into a six-foot-five, battle-wounded man with the face of a fallen god. What she  really  doesn’t expect… …is for him to be naked. He claims he’s a prince. He claims he’s being hunted. He claims there’s an enchanted sword powerful enough to save his kingdom — and he needs her help to find it. She thinks he’s insane. He knows she’s his. Bonded. Fated. Mates. Sorren is not from her world. He’s older. Wilder. Royal. And on the run. This Easter, the hunt begins. Not for eggs. For a throne. For survival. For  her . Because once a prince claims his mate… He doesn’t let her go. My Review Nora didn't plan to have a rabbit as a pet but the shop owner kind of pushed the rabbit upon her. You can imagine her surprise when one moment she is pett...
