ON THE FLY
Elise Faber
Release Date: April 28
She’s the one woman I can’t have.
And yet I can’t let her go…
I’ve respected Joey—Josephine—Banks from the moment I first came to the Sierra Hockey organization.
Over the years, that respect grew into friendship…and eventually, it became something more. Something dangerous. Something that I could never allow myself to have.
So I stayed away.
But then I discover the truth about Joey’s past with the team’s former head coach and everything changes.
I can’t stay away.
I don’t care about bad press or dumb decisions or all the ways a relationship between us can implode.
I just know I’ll do everything to make her mine.
Author's note: There are some difficult themes in this story. For CW information, please check this book's page on my website.

THE EXCEPTION
Jenna Hartley
Release Date: April 28
Blurb:
When my former boss—a man known as a cold, heartless, billionaire—proposes to me, I think he must be joking.
Except I know Graham Mackenzie well enough to know he doesn't joke.
He's brooding, keenly intelligent, and fifteen years older than me. And the deal he's offering...is no laughing matter.
I need money to save a château and fulfill a promise to my great-aunt, and he needs a wife.
After two years, if we can pull this off, we'll go our separate ways.
It's supposed to be a business agreement—nothing more. But the longer we pretend, the more I feel like I see the real Graham. And I find myself wishing for something real.
A marriage of convenience seemed like the perfect solution. At least until I started developing real feelings for my fake husband.

Bella Matthews has revealed the covers for Breathtaking!
Releasing: May 22, 2025
Model Cover: Shanoff Designs
Alternate Cover Designer: Books and Moods
A surprise pregnancy, marriage of convenience, billionaire romance from #1 Amazon and USA Today Bestselling author Bella Matthews.
Pushing Maddox Beneventi away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done . . . until the day I showed up at his doorstep clutching a positive pregnancy test.
If you’d have told me we’d be married a month later, I’d have laughed in your face. Because this tall, dark, devastatingly handsome billionaire couldn’t possibly be my happily ever after. Even if he was the only one I’d ever truly wanted.
Fairytales don’t always come true—especially for a princess.
But this isn’t a fairytale.
This is the story of how Maddox Beneventi saved me.
How he fought for me.
For us.
Maybe one day, I’ll tell our child the truth behind our so-called happy ending.
About the pain . . . the devastation and destruction that was left in our wake.
How hard we fought. First each other, then everyone else.
One day, I’ll share that the price we paid was the pain left etched on our souls.
But that day?
That day isn’t today.

I can't believe that's the end of the Western Wildcats. I feel like there's still a few characters I need to get the stories of and I'm praying that they will be the stars of the next series. I'm even more excited for the cameos we've been promised.
The little wrap up that Bridger did towards the end of the book actually gave me a huge warm fuzzy and made me want to barricade myself away to binge the series from the start. But alas the kids are crafty and honestly I'm surprised their spider senses didn't kick in when I was reading the last 10% like it normally does.
Holland and Bridger felt like they were a long time coming and simultaneously instant. The history was something I would have liked a bit more detail on but then it also wasn't needed. Because they had tension for days and seeing it explode was hot.
Holland was such a boss bitch. It was easy to like her. Bridger had been so broken-down over the random messages and as much as I wanted Holland to kick him I also wanted her to wrap him up and love him. They both so desperately needed someone to care for them in such vastly different ways it was the perfect combination. And Bridger's possessive jealousy was just icing on top.
And despite how much I will miss these guys it's beautiful to see where they have all ended up and I am going to be first in line to read what I'm hoping is Steele's book next. Please?
I’d considered myself carefree and content until I met my best friend’s older brother.
Brody Benson has a way of wrecking my composure with a single glare.
He’s broody and crass and far too attractive.
As if that isn’t enough, he earns more money in a month than I’ll likely make in my lifetime.
We couldn’t be more different. That’s why I settle for catching quick glances of him in passing. Meanwhile, he prefers to pretend I don’t exist.
But then the unthinkable happens.
Brody
The death of my mother rocks the foundation that our rustic empire is built on.
After the funeral, my sister flees to find comfort and peace. Dad shuts down, leaving me to keep the business running. That undertaking is made more challenging by Paisley Keaton.
Now I’m constantly crossing paths with the sunny cowgirl my sister left in charge of the barn. She tries to be helpful, which only agitates my animosity. I don’t miss an opportunity to tell her where to stick that overly positive attitude.
The fact that Paisley is the last woman I’d ever date promotes her to a permanent position at Benson Manor. One that needs to be filled to guarantee my ownership of the company.
Paisley will be my wife, but the only thing she’ll get from me is my last name.
She’s a Minnesota gal with a serious addiction to romance. There’s nothing quite like an epic happily ever after. When she’s not buried in the writing cave, Harloe can be found hanging with her hubby and kiddos. If the weather permits, she loves being lakeside or out in the country with her horses.
Broody heroes are Harloe’s favorite to write. Her romances are swoony and emotional with plenty of heat. All of her books are available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited.

This series hits me in the feels every single time. And every time I forget that before I start reading it. With my goldfish brain I just go into it all smiles thinking about how much I love this series and how awesome the author is and then bam crying like a baby while we relive that night from a whole new perspective.
And this time we got it from both sides as they relive the before of their relationship and how it was torn apart. Not to mention the aftermath and the toll it took on both of them. So Everleigh left to escape and we didn't know much about her. Except that she came back to help her mum at the end of the last book.
Brock however has been sprinkled through all of the books and he did not have a very positive light shown on him. It seemed everyone either resented him or pitied him and I couldn't blame them since they only saw the consequences of his actions. And since he wasn't sharing, no one knew why he had acted like he did.
But obviously we got to see his side since this is in dual point of view and even though I think he was an idiot my heart broke for him. Especially when you factor in how young they were at the time. Also, luckily for me (because I love it) he owned his mistakes and he gave great grovel.
An added bonus was holy smokes, the chemistry between these two was beyond. Like thank God I read this book alone in bed or I might have embarrassed myself. But that aside it was also sweet and I couldn't put it down. The teaser for the next one has made my day because for some reason I thought this was the last of the series and I'm so glad to be sticking around.
