He’s a mechanic.

That should be enough to warn any woman away from the dangers of becoming involved like a man like him.

All women know the dangers he poses.

It’s shoved in my face every time that blonde barbie shows up and throws herself at him.

Yet, I find it harder and harder to stay away.

He keeps wearing me down, showing up and finding ways to challenge me.

It’s that sexy smile and those deep blue eyes. I could get lost in them.

And let’s not even talk about those sexy, muscular hands.

Even the guys I work with know they can’t compete with him.

But as I said…

He’s a mechanic, and I was bound to fall for him.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

Title: Her Devil
Series: Pendleton Prep Book 1
Author: H.L. Packer
Genre: Romantic Suspense, Dark Romance, New Adult Romance
Tropes: Secret Society, Academy Romance
Release Date: May 24, 2023
 

“What a Book!!! So many questions still to answer and I CAN’T wait for more.” ★★★★★ LoverOfBooks80


“Every turn of the page had me asking , “ what’s going to happen next “. Such a great read.” ★★★★★ Angela


I should have known that this was coming…
I’d done the right things, chosen the right friends, kept my grades up, primped and primed and smiled when I was supposed to, and then I escaped the clutches of the man they’d chosen for me. What. An. Idiot.
Or not, I suppose.
If I spend the year at Pendleton Prep, I can go back on my merry way. The problem is that life here is not exactly what I expected.
I’m not just another student, here to serve her time and get out. Oh no, that would never do. I’ve been wrapped up and served on a platter for the Devils of Pendleton Prep.
They’re hot, stupidly hot, and involved in something I want nothing to do with.
More than one of them has her set in their sights, but she’s already entangled in the world of the elite, they just don’t realise it yet. Where nine begin, only three will end… how far will they go to secure their place?


H.L Packer is, quite frankly, a busy bee.
An avid reader as a child, her love for all things written waned into adulthood, the excitement of real life things taking over. But when her life slowed down as she finished her office job for maternity leave, her husband purchased her an e-reader, and that obsession was rekindled.
Quickly she went from reader to reviewer, and then from reviewer to blogger; street teams and promo tours galore. When she began collating her own book boxes over at Romance Readers Book Box UK and had the opportunity to include her own words and worlds, the characters began talking.
Those cheeky characters quickly found themselves written down on the page, and her first series was in progress.
When she is not coordinating her worlds, you can find her running around after her free-spirited three children, and husband, or tending to the dogs, bearded dragons, and snakes that also reside with them.
A break can be found soaking in a bubble bath or enjoying a glass of wine, often still with a book in her hand.

“Ummm wow! Just wow!! Another 10 star book!! Johnny is just wow with Tahlia!” ★★★★★ Escape Reality Book Blog
 
 
 
 
There’s only one way this ends, and that’s with her by my side.
It started out as a search for a missing teammate, but quickly morphed into an intense attraction for the beautiful medical examiner.
Lust fueled me to follow her.
To find out everything I could about her.
To save her.
And when it came time to run, she chose me.
Caught up in a deadly game by my boss, Tahlia was the unexpected twist I didn’t see coming.
And the moment she put her hand in mine, I knew I was a goner.
There’s no one that can protect her like I can.
There’s no one that will make her scream like me.
Lust may have started this deadly game, but love will see it through to the end.
She doesn’t know it, but she’s already mine.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
“Johnny!” she screamed. “What are you doing?”
“Tahlia, you know this guy?” the chief snapped, his gun aimed at me.
“Tahlia, we’re getting out of here. Come with me,” I ordered.
“Don’t move,” he snapped at her.
“I…what’s going on here?” she asked me.
I could see the panic rising in her eyes. I had to get her out now, or it would be too late.
“They’re accusing you of stealing the body, but you and I both know you didn’t do it.”
“Who are you?” the chief shouted. Thank God his finger wasn’t on the trigger, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t shoot me.
“Tahlia, I know you’re innocent, and you’re going to have a hell of a time proving it behind bars.”
“How did you—” She shook her head in confusion.
“I bugged your apartment,” I said, being as honest as possible with her. “I know something’s going on with the body, but you’re not going to prove it behind bars.”
“You can’t prove it on the run, Tahlia,” the chief shouted.
“And who’s going to help you?” I snapped. “Him? He’s ready to take you in. He doesn’t even believe you.”
She looked between the two of us, clearly unsure of who to trust.
“If you run now, you’ll be hunted down, Tahlia. Don’t listen to him.”
“I would never let you get hurt,” I said calmly. “I know it’s a lot to ask, but I need you to trust me. There’s more going on than a body being snatched. If you stay, you’ll be convicted because of an altered video. If you want answers, you only have one option, and that’s to come with me.”
“Don’t do it, Tahlia!”
She looked at the chief, but I could feel her shifting to my side. As much as she was scared, she needed answers, and the chief wasn’t about to provide them.
“It’s now or never, Tahlia. The police are on their way,” I snapped.

Blurb:

From award-winning author Billie Dale comes the story of a mother’s fight to keep herself and her daughter out of the clutches of the Cosa Nostra and away from an obsessed stepbrother whose feelings are anything but brotherly.

I needed a place no one would know me.

Sanctuary.

And as far from everyone in my past as possible without leaving the country.

The island of Mercy Bay is my fresh start.

I’m a new mother with a colicky baby and no support system. Nights of screaming bring the surly neighbor to my door. Big, brooding, ex-hocky playing, infuriating and hot, Walker Wheler is the baby whisperer. He adores my daughter.

Me? Not so much.

 

I don’t need another man to complicate my life, but I can’t resist Walker. After a night of explosive passion, I discover I’m not the only one with secrets.

When the twisted truth comes calling, I learn that no matter how far or fast you run, the past will always find you in the end.

Instead, she chose to marry the one man who ruined my life and took my family—Clemente.
Gone is that sweet boy that promised her love, hope, and a future…
Instead, he’s been replaced with a proud man wanting Serena to pay for choosing the enemy over me.

Title: Heresy
Series: Antihero Inferno #4
Author: Lily White
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: April 26, 2023

FAVORITE BOOK OF THE YEAR, SO FAR!! Lily White is back and killing it with her words. The feels are off the charts with these two.” 5 Star Amazon Review

This book is everything I have been waiting for! Lily is back and wrote another masterpiece!” 5 Star Amazon Review

Sixth Circle

Heresy

Also Known as Shane Carter
 
There are no rules with this man.
No courtesies.
No acceptable behaviors he’ll conform to in order to be accepted.
 
He marches to his own beat.
Gives the finger to expectations.
And does whatever pleases him because nobody can control him.
 
Arrogant.
Aggravating.
Absolute Chaos.
Shane is the last person you want walking into your world.
 
It’s too bad he walked into mine.
Now I can’t get rid of him.
Not that I’m sure I want to.
 
He wants something from me.
He’s playing a game.
And every time we come together, I can’t help feeling like I’m dancing with the Devil.
 
It all started with a chance meeting.
With the exchange of a few angry words.
And now that I’m trapped in this man’s maze, I fear I won’t be strong enough to resist being seduced.
 
*** Each novel in the series depicts a unique romance, but the plots through each book connect in one world. For the best experience, read the series in order.
Nine Ruthless Men. Nine Unrepentant Sinners. Nine Irresistible Manipulators.
