Title: Grumpy the Bear
Series: Bluebell Band of Brothers #1
Author: Marika Ray
Genre: Small Town Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Grumpy/Sunshine, Single Dad, Enemies to Lovers
Release Date: June 8, 2023

Cover Design: Jennifer Olson
He’s a tattooed, blue-eyed jerk who has no business being a single dad. He’s also my next-door neighbor, and after negotiations, my grumpy employer for the summer.

I don’t put up with cocky males normally and I certainly won’t put up with that man making noise at all hours of the day and night while he builds his glamp-ground. I offer advice, but the stubborn fool just turns his tractor on to drown me out. He returns the favor by pushing my buttons and making me so angry I can’t see straight. And I really want to be able to see his gorgeous body in those well-worn jeans and backward hat.

Amidst the verbal warfare, I discover he’s hiding scars from a recent accident. I also find out his light eyes heat up to a smoldering icy gray when I give as good as I get. Makes me want to see just how far I can push him and what he’ll do when he boils over.

Gannon’s been dealt a rough hand in life, and when I find a way under that gruff—and stupidly handsome—exterior, I find that maybe he’s not Grumpy the Bear as I nicknamed him, but instead just a teddy bear.

“Get that background check to me,” I snapped.

Paisley rolled those pretty eyes and dropped back down to her feet to step out of the trailer. “You either trust me or you don’t, cowboy,” she tossed over her shoulder.

I found myself watching her backside walk all the way back to her property, tearing up the ground like she commanded nature itself. When I realized what I was doing, I squeezed my eyes shut and turned around, reminding myself of my promise. Paisley was my new neighbor and now my daughter’s nanny. There would be absolutely no looking. Just working.

Title: Marrying the Muse
Author: Kari Castaño
Genre: RomCom
Cover Designer: Laura with Spellbinding Designs
Publication Date: July 27th, 2023
Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR

Blurb:
How far will a romance-wary thriller writer go in order to save her career? Simple: she finds herself in a fake marriage with a playboy billionaire.

 

Olivia Harris, master of penning thrillers that could scare the socks off a hardened criminal, is facing the literary equivalent of a horror show. Her agent drops the bomb: publishers want romance, not thrillers. So, she’s expected to switch from writing about cold-blooded killers to hot-blooded lovers. Just one tiny problem – Olivia wouldn’t know romance if it hit her with a dozen roses.

 

Meanwhile, billionaire tycoon and renowned playboy, Alexander Kingston, is facing his own crisis. His playboy antics have finally caught up to him, and his grandfather is done turning a blind eye, threatening to snatch away Kingston Enterprises and his inheritance unless he ties the knot. But where on earth would he find a bride in this eleventh-hour scramble?

 

Enter Fate, who apparently thinks it’s a stand-up comedian, flinging Olivia and Alexander together again after a previous one-night-stand. Seeing an unexpected solution to his problem, Alexander takes a wild shot and pitches Olivia a proposal that is more business than bended knee.

 

Will they dare to venture into the unknown or is the absurdity of their agreement doomed to upend their own rebelliously romantic hearts?

Title: Accidental Attachment
Author: Max Monroe
Genre: Romantic Comedy (stand alone)
Release Date: April 30, 2023
Cover Design: Peter Alderweireld
 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jeeves Reads Romance – “A slow-burning treat, this exceedingly low angst romance is easily one of my new favorites from this writing duo.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goodreads Review – “This book is full of Max Monroe Hallmarks. Witty banter. Lots of laughs. Tons of self deprecating – in the cutest way – inner monologue.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Catbythesea Reads – “I’ve never read anything quite as amazing as this book, it made me sad, filled with laughter and joy all at the same time.”
A successful writer accidentally sends her new (and super-dreamy) editor the wrong manuscript. Instead of the full-length paranormal novel she promised Longstrand Publishing, she sends the fan fiction she’s written about her crush…on him—including every detail of the hot, steamy “physical activity” she’s fantasized about happening between them.
 
And Chase Dawson may be the hottest man alive and a super-talented editor to boot, but he’s completely oblivious that he’s the star of the manuscript he just convinced his boss to green-light.
Brooke Baker has been through a lot in her thirty-one years of life.
A divorce.
A career change.
A move to New York City from “small-town” Ohio.
Not to mention, she has a bit of a medical condition that involves occasional fainting spells, mild embarrassment, and the companionship of her adorable service dog and canine sidekick, Benji.
But none of it has prepared her for this.
 
None of it prepared her for Chase Dawson.
Strong jaw, blue eyes, cut muscles, and a perfect swoop of superhero-worthy black hair, Chase’s features are those of a book boyfriend and then some. Obviously, Brooke would know—she literally filled an entire manuscript with it.
A manuscript no one was ever supposed to see.
Will she survive two months of revising and editing the sizzling romance she imagined with Chase in extremely close quarters with him? Or will the constant white lies and overwhelming attraction make her spontaneously combust?

Big Book Boss

By Jessika Klide

Genre: Contemporary Romance | Billionaire Romance | Rom-Com

Hosted by DS Book Promotions

BLURB:

In this Hot Billionaire RomCom, a drunken bar hook-up comes back to bite when Samaera answers a horrific job ad written to attract a male personal assistant, and ‘Sam’ is hired sight unseen to the Big Book Boss of Precious Kitty (Females, not felines!) Publishing House.

 

Meeting him was a total fluke.

Doing him was a BIG mistake.

Or was it?

 

He was a beefcake at the bar watching the Yankees game with a bro.

Needing liquor courage for the karaoke contest, Samaera inserted herself.

Tipsy from the drinks and drunk on the win, Dixie Doodle does something stupid.

But … #BestSexEver.

 

Ten days later, she answers a horrifically worded ad.

Clearly intended to attract a male Personal Assistant to a billionaire mogul.

No woman would want to work for a Boss (dick).

But desperate and fearless, ‘Sam’ applies.

 

Immediately, she is offered the position.

The catch, she has ten minutes to arrive.

 

Rushing by the outgoing personal assistant, she crashes into Boss Dick’s office.

On her knees, she hears, “You’re not a man. Get out!”

But Samaera is a fighter, not a quitter, and threatens a sexist lawsuit.

To which an all too familiar voice from the bar answers:

“Then grab a condom for your heart, honey. I’m going to f—k your feelings.”

 

Then Bastian realizes who was hired, and he proceeds to rewrite her job duties.

Her feelings are not the only thing he intends to f–k.

 

Her mantra becomes, “Do a good job. Don’t do him—again.”

But his demand that she be with him 24/7 could prove to be too much.

If only his body wasn’t chiseled and his lips weren’t sculpted.

And she didn’t know how BIG Book Boss is!

 

Join Samaera and Sebastian for a hot whirlwind billionaire romantic comedy full of steamy scenes in this opposites-attract, grumpy-sunshine new release by #4 Amazon Chart Author Jessika Klide.

*This is a Standalone novel*

Author: Jacob Chance
Genre: Sports Romance/Romantic Comedy
Release Date: April 21, 2023
Cover Design: Dee Garcia from Black Widow Designs

 
 
My dad has been the coach of the Charleston Coyotes for as long as I can remember. All the time I’ve spent in ice rinks has taught me two things:
1.) I will NEVER date a hockey player.
As a single mom, it’s not like I have time for romance anyway.
2.) Nothing smells worse than hockey players after a game.
And I work as a dog groomer, so I have experience with smelly animals.
It’s amazing how quickly my rules are forgotten when Darius walks into my pet salon.
Tall, dark, and tattooed with rippling muscles and a perfect smile must be my kryptonite, because I find myself agreeing to go out with him.
But we’re both keeping secrets we’re not ready to share. And when they finally come out, everything changes between us.
I do my best to keep my distance from him.
Yet, the more I fight my feelings, the more I find myself wanting the winger.

Series: Harbor Highlands Series
Author: Gia Stevens
Genre: Romantic Comedy/Best Friend’s Brother Romance
Release Date: July 17, 2023
Cover Design: HEA Studios
 
Don’t kiss your best friend’s brother.
Easy enough.
Too bad I never got the memo.
The grumpy, tattooed bad boy screams off limits.
Instead of staying away, I tell him to kiss me. It’s a kiss that sends tingles to places I never knew could tingle. When it’s over, I need more.
This good girl craves the bad boy.
And his name is Ledger Hudson.
Our chemistry between the sheets…
Undeniable.
Turning the frown of the grumpasaurus upside down…
Most fun I’ve ever had.
Everything quickly unravels once my best friend finds out. Words are said. Food is thrown. And now my best friend hates me.
Ledger pushes me away, saying we’re from different worlds. I tug him back, wanting to prove him wrong. When I’m dateless for the biggest gala of the year, he shows up as my knight in shiny combat boots.
All my life I’ve been forced to follow a certain set of rules and a smokin’ hot guy in ripped jeans and a motorcycle isn’t on the list. But being rebellious never felt so good.
As they say… what goes up must come crashing down, shattering in a million tiny pieces.
When I’m left with nothing…
It’s the grumpy, bad boy who’s determined to not let me go.

Cover Design: Najla Qamber Designs
Cover Model: Chase Roback

Bad-boy hockey player Hayden Harrington always lands on his feet. Or skates, in this case.
After a scandalous fling with the coach’s daughter comes to light, this good-looking hotshot forward is swiftly traded to the Atlanta Thunder—an up-and-coming new hockey team.
It’s not all bad, though.
This could be his big chance to play center on the top line.
So yeah, maybe it’s fortuitous that the pesky team marketing intern, Addison Knight, let his secret out.
Still, though she’s hot as sin, he’s happy he’ll never have to see her again.
Or will he?
What Hayden doesn’t know is Addison just landed a job with the Thunder too. And what it involves is spending an exorbitant amount of time with him working on rehabilitating his image.
Ha, like that’ll go well.
Hayden is an enemies-to-friends love story and the first book in the new Breakaway Hockey romance series. (can be a standalone)

“𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙮 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙖 𝙣𝙚𝙬 𝙨𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨! … the chemistry between these two is off the charts, throw in their banter with each other and you’ve got a win!” ★★★★★ East Coast Book Chicks

Title: Falling First Hell
Series: Hellman Brothers Series
Author: Marika Ray
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Cinnamon Roll Hero; Reverse Grumpy/Sunshine; Small Town
Release Date: March 30, 2023
I’m unemployed and down to my last dollar—thank you stranger who bought my coffee when my card was declined this morning. If that wasn’t bad enough, I just T-boned the truck belonging to the guy I was meeting on a first date.
Ethan Hellman, small town sweetheart with a secret, and an instant—unbelievable—love for me despite me denting his truck.
It’s not that I don’t believe in love per se. It’s just that I’ve done the calculations—it won’t happen to me. And especially not now when I’m bouncing off rock bottom with the bruises to prove it.
But Ethan doesn’t seem to care about all that. He offers me a job, a place to live…and a rock on my finger. I just have to turn my back on my career, pretend to be giddy in love, and be the face of his new company. His constant sunshine makes me grumpy. It’s also kind of addicting. So I agree to his terms and find myself living a life I don’t even recognize.
Things are going surprisingly well when someone from my past reappears offering a similar lifeline. I’ll have to make some tough decisions that just don’t compute in my logical brain.
Ethan may have fallen first, but I’m afraid I’ve fallen harder.

“These two had me basking in all the feels as they tugged at my heartstrings and tickled my funny bone. It is impossible not to laugh out loud as you read this book, but your heart is also going to wickedly ache for Andi.” -Gladys, Goodreads
