Title: Snowed in with the Rancher
Series: A Young Sisters Novel
Author: Whitley Cox
Genre/Tropes: Christmas, Western, Cowboy Romance 
Release Date: March 4, 2023
Can her ray of sunshine melt his icy heart?

Recently dumped by her boyfriend, Triss Young accepts the unexpected offer from her best friend to travel to Colorado and spend Christmas with Hannah and her uncles. But when Triss’s plane lands in Denver and Hannah’s is rerouted because of snow, Triss heads to the ranch alone and is surprised when a blue-eyed, sexy rancher with dog tags answers the door.

Grumpy rancher Asher Harris doesn’t know what to make of the beauty who showed up on his doorstep at midnight, covered in snow and hell-bent on snuggling goats. He’s got a lot of work to do on the ranch and doesn’t have time to entertain, even though he can think of a few ways he and Triss could stay warm.

However, this Christmas seems to be full of surprises for everyone, as Triss proves herself to not only be a natural with the horses, but she’s up for anything—even mucking stalls. Is she also the breath of fresh air and happiness Asher didn’t know he needed?
 

Footsteps echoed on the other side of the door and the porch light flicked on just before the big solid oak door was yarded open to reveal a shirtless man, not much older than Triss, wearing flannel pajama pants. He had abs for days, dog tags hanging between his pecs, a scowl on his face, and confusion in his dark blue eyes.

Was she at the right house?

Hannah said she was coming to spend Christmas with her uncles. This man could not be Hannah’s uncle. Not when he should be on the cover of some firefighters with kittens calendar. Or in this case, cowboys with baby goats calendar.

His eyes traipsed down her body. “Who are you?” Dear God, his voice was exactly what she’d expect from a cowboy. Sex and rasp.

She swallowed, trying her hardest to keep her eyes on his face, not his six-pack. “I’m Triss. Hannah’s friend.”

His brows scrunched. “Hannah’s flight had to turn around.”

“Did it?” She checked her phone, though she realized the moment she did it that it wouldn’t do her any good. Not only would Hannah not be able to text her if she was still in the air, but Triss’s phone had up and died on her journey from the road. “Fuck,” she muttered, stowing her phone back in her pocket. “Are you Hannah’s cousin?”

He shook his head which caused the porch light to catch on a thick white scar on his chin and make it glow. “Uncle.”

If the other uncle was just as young and hot, Triss was going to have a heart attack.

“She did tell you I was coming, right?”

He shook his head.

“Fuck.”

“For Christmas?” he asked.

She nodded. “Yeah. Hannah invited me to join her here with you and … your brother? For Christmas.” At the mention of his brother, Triss tried to see around the man’s big frame into the house and whether another one just like him was lurking in the shadows.

“Nate’s in Texas. Took a yearling down there few days ago, got stuck in the snow.”

“And you are?”

“Asher.”

A man of very few words.

“Well … uh … I flew in from Baltimore. Hannah’s my best friend and …” She glanced back toward the road. “My cabby made me walk from the road. After I paid triple the fare to get here.”

All Asher did was scratch at his bristly jaw, the sound of his nails on those short wiry hairs doing all kinds of strange things to Triss’s lower belly.

Was he going to invite her in?

His eyes bore holes into her face for a solid thirty seconds, causing heat to worm through her until her hands grew sweaty in her gloves. Then, finally when she wasn’t sure if he’d slam the door in her face or not, he opened it wider and stepped to the side. “Come in.”

“Thank you,” she murmured, awkwardly tugging her suitcase over the threshold and stepping into the dark, sparsely decorated farmhouse. It was warm inside, which she realized was from a wood stove in the corner of the living room. A window in the wood stove door was the only light in the room, its orange flames making the area around it glow.

She tugged off her gloves and removed her hood from her head, apologizing when a few droplets of water from it were flicked onto his hard chest.

“Guest room is down the hall. Bathroom is beside it,” he said, jerking his scarred chin in that direction. Then before she could ask him any more questions, he turned away from her and padded his big bare feet up the creaky wooden staircase that led to darkness. A second later, she heard a door close, only then did she release the breath that had snagged in her throat when she saw that butt in those pajama pants.


A Canadian West Coast baby born and raised, Whitley is married to her high school sweetheart, and together they have two beautiful daughters and a fluffy dog. She spends her days making food that gets thrown on the floor, vacuuming Cheerios out from under the couch and making sure that the dog food doesn’t end up in the air conditioner. But when nap time comes, and it’s not quite wine o’clock, Whitley sits down, avoids the pile of laundry on the couch, and writes.
 
A lover of all things decadent; wine, cheese, chocolate and spicy erotic romance, Whitley brings the humorous side of sex, the ridiculous side of relationships and the suspense of everyday life into her stories. With single dads, firefighters, Navy SEALs, mommy wars, body issues, threesomes, bondage and role-playing, Whitley’s books have all the funny and fabulously filthy words you could hope for.

Title: Santa Biker

Series: Royal Bastards MC, Tonopah, NV
Author: Nikki Landis
Genre: MC Romance / PNR / Romantic Suspense
Tropes: Age Gap, Insta lust-to-love, Christmas Romance
Release Date: December 23, 2022
Diablo:
I’m a savage and a killer.
A man with nothing to lose.
As the cleaner for the Royal Bastards, I do the dirty work for the club.
When I’m called in, it’s my job to ensure nothing is left behind.
But it’s the blood that speaks to me, revealing hidden secrets and exposing the truth.
Blood contains all the agony of my past, and I can’t escape it.
Years ago, I loved and lost a young woman and her son.
Two souls ripped away in a cruel twist of fate.
Evil wormed its way into Nevada, and now it’s here again, chasing more innocents.
My heart is dark, the pain buried far down where nothing can reach it.
Until her.
Gina is a single mom with two sweet kids.
She’s beautiful, strong, independent. And so fierce.
When her past comes looking for her, I swear my protection but keep my heart guarded.
I don’t expect a single tattoo in my shop and her blood to reveal more secrets.
Now I’ve got three new souls who need a holiday miracle.
But opening myself up again means trusting fate won’t ruin me a second time.
It’s operation Santa Biker, and I intend to give Gina a Christmas to remember.
 
Gina:
I’m dreading the holidays this year.
I’m out of money, overworked, and stressed to the max.
All I want is to give my kids a wonderful Christmas.
Life has other plans.
Broken down for the third time in mere weeks, I’m in tears and alone on the side of the road when a ghost from my past shows up and threatens my life.
The sexy biker that rides in on his iron horse saves me from harm and stirs an itch that I didn’t realize I needed to be scratched.
Diablo is rough, wild, tattooed, and untamed.
He’s also the hottest man I’ve ever met.
A leather-wearing, dirty, delicious holiday treat I don’t dare to indulge.
When my house is broken into and trashed a couple of weeks before Christmas, there’s only one man who can help.
I need a miracle from St. Nick.
My secret Santa has a heavy wish list.
I just hope he can deliver.
* For best enjoyment, it is highly recommended that Bloody Mine, Devil’s Ride, and The Biker’s Wish are read before Santa Biker.
*** Note – Santa Biker is a wild, insta-lust-to-love Christmas story between a sexy bad boy and a hardworking single mom. This book is a standalone but part of the Tonopah, NV Royal Bastards MC and contains an age-gap romance, steamy scenes, biker slang, cursing, violence, dark content, a paranormal REAPER twist, and, of course, an HEA.

Blurb:

Spencer always regarded himself as a hopeless romantic. A boring, pathetic loser who gave up on dating and finding love for the holidays. For the past ten years, it’s just been him and his best friend, Paige.

Aside from the ‘loser’ status, Spencer also has an obsession. An obsession that would seem crazy, stupid, and even idiotic to everyone else, you know, all the ‘normal’ people. For Spencer though, this obsession is anything but normal, and he knows it.

Day after day he spends his time in a men’s clothing store, obsessing over Quinn. Quinn is a handsome, mysterious, and spectacular creation who Spencer knows absolutely nothing about, but finds himself extremely attracted to the guy.

There’s just one problem––Quinn is a mannequin.

All Spencer wants is a man. Someone to be with, shop with, sleep with, fall in love with, even if it’s just for the holidays. All he wants … is Quinn.

What he wasn’t expecting, however, was to find Quinn, the mannequin he’s been obsessing over, standing at his front door at midnight, two weeks before Christmas … as a real-life human being.

Is Quinn staying just for the holidays? Or will he and Spencer find their Happily Ever After that will last an eternity?

Christmas comes but once a year, and that’s one too many times for me.

This year is no different, but the hated holiday brings more than slacking workers and “holiday cheer.”

A blast from my past not only infiltrates my workspace with her incompetence, she shows up at a secret retreat – wreaking havoc to my well-laid plans.

It won’t be Santa she has to worry about pleasing. I will bend her to my will by bending her over my bench.

Merry Christmas to me.

With news from Brodie that will change Deacon’s life forever, can he find happiness with Kris for the holidays?
