Love Overboard by Kandi Steiner is now live!
From USA Today, #1 Amazon, and BookTok bestselling author Kandi Steiner comes a sizzling, second-chance romance set on the high seas—perfect for fans of Below Deck and readers who crave angsty, high-stakes love stories.
Ember Reed is finally living her dream: chief stew on a Mediterranean superyacht, sun-kissed days at sea, and the star of Close Quarters, the hottest new reality TV show. But just as she finds her stride, the producers throw her a curveball—by hiring the one man who nearly sank her.
Finn Pearson was the one that got away. The boy who kissed her like they had forever, then left without a word. But now he’s the chef in her new crew, and the cameras are watching their every move, innocent, or not.
Even on a superyacht, there's nowhere to hide from the past. Every stolen glance, every whispered argument, every lingering memory threatens to ignite what never fully burned out. And as the tension spills into their day jobs, even the dinner service is spiralling into disaster.
They’ve crashed before… but could eight weeks at sea be their second chance to get it right? Or will it be the storm that finally sinks them for good?

I really struggled to start this book. I had been dying to get my hands on it, then I got an audio and an ebook and I just didn’t feel emotionally ready for an angsty book. So I put it off and I was just about to start another book when I realised my window to read this was closing so I picked it up expecting not to be able to get into it and was immediately swept away. And then I felt like an idiot because of course that would happen with this author.
From the first sentence I developed a natural bias against Finn and I nursed that for a solid half the book. I was so mad and I really didn’t like him. I wanted Ember to kick him in his shins and leave him to watch her soar. And then I would get mad at Ember for not doing exactly that. Then I got it and I was madly on their team. But, I did get infuriated with them at the reunion, like seriously have you learnt nothing? Fucking communicate. Ahhhh.
I literally could not put the damn story down. I swapped between audio and reading. And OMG the audio was a freaking masterpiece. I started off reading it and then swapped to audio to adult and I was so nervous how they would get the format of the book to play out on audio. And then it was even better than actually reading it, which isn't my normal feelings on audio. And the voices and the accents Fuuccckkkk yes. Then my headphones died and I went back to reading. But you best believe the moment those suckers charged I jumped straight back to audio.
The entire crew was awesome. There were ones I loved and ones I hated and ones I wanted to scream at. And I could see it all playing out on a reality tv show even if I haven't watched one in twenty years. The villain edit to bump ratings, the extra content to change the narrative and keep the show rolling. The interviews to get the crew's thoughts on things. It was just chef’s kiss.
I am so glad I picked up this book and I know it will be living rent free in my head for a while.

My best friend is the definition of a bad boy. A billionaire celebrity chef and underground boxer wrapped in muscles, tattoos, and mystery.
To me, he's simply Roman Fritz. A little grumpy and a lot broken, but with a heart of gold.
When I catch my fiancé cheating, Roman suggests I join him in Las Vegas for the opening of his restaurant, then on to a resort in Mexico where he's starting another.
It feels like the perfect escape from everything.
Until we wake up married.
We say it doesn't mean anything. That our friendship can handle a little Vegas mishap.
Then we get to Mexico and somewhere between only one bed in our villa and seeing him in a way I never have before, our friendship crosses the uncrossable line.
For five days it's sun, sand, and Roman pushing my limits while taking my body and heart places I never knew were possible.
That is until the world catches up with us and unexpected threats crawl out of dark places.
And just when we think we're done fighting and have finally won, a one-two punch comes out of nowhere, determined to knock us out for good.

My father orders me to seduce a man most people are too afraid to even look at.
Georgi Torrisi.
Head of the Torrisi family and a Cosa Nostra Capo.
A brutal and powerful man who rules his world with violence and absolute control.
And I’m supposed to make him want me.
Turns out my father thinks he can use Georgi to get to Atanas Petkov, our family’s sworn enemy. If Atanas continues to grow in power with Georgi’s help, it will mean the end of my father’s reign of terror, and I’m the bait meant to make one of the most dangerous men in New York lower his guard.
Do I have a choice?
No.
Hours later, Georgi Torrisi is chained in my father’s basement while the man I helped betray is beaten and tortured.
My already f-ed up life takes a turn for the worse, because I didn’t expect the guilt.
I didn’t expect the way his eyes still burn when he looks at me.
And I definitely didn’t expect myself to unlock the chains and set him free.
The moment Georgi walks out of that basement, he turns into a violent monster that’s out for revenge. Once the hallways of my family home are painted red, he takes my daughter and me with him.
There’s no running.
No hiding.
And now all I can do is pray I survive being at the mercy of the man I betrayed.

Ok so I’ve been stalker level obsessed with these books since I picked up The Wrong Pucking Number. So I naturally one clicked it the moment it was released, then I got a killer migraine and couldn’t read it so I grabbed the audio and couldn’t have been happier.
The voices were good, as an Aussie sometimes they can hit weirdly but whoever did Matty’s will be living rent free in my head saying pretty baby for days. Ophelia’s narrator was great too but (and this is such a me thing) she audibly inhaled after 70% of the sentences. And as much as that kind of annoyed me I could live with it because she also made me feel Ophelia.
Honestly, I didn’t expect the feels I got from this book. With the way these guys are all so stalker obsessed I figured Ophelia’s stalker tendencies would be welcomed. I didn’t expect them to be all that they were. And so I loved her so much for that. But Matty’s reaction to it was classic No Drama Llama.
Despite all the feels this still had so many laugh out loud moments. Ophelia and Matty together were hot af and everything we’ve come to expect from the crew. And the little teaser at the end for the next book has me anxiously awaiting that one almost as much as I’m anticipating Jaggers. I did miss my Disney cameo’s but you can’t have everything.
Untamed by Luna Mason is now live!
They can come after my ranch, my freedom, even my life. But, no one gets away with touching my wife…
Hunter Sterling.
People call me by different names depending on which version of me they know.
The owner of Sterling ranch.
The heir to a mafia empire.
The murderer the town wants caged.
I have ninety days to prove I didn’t kill the mother of my son or I lose everything.
I should be focused on survival.
Instead, I fall for the same girl my best friend does.
Lola Jackson. The city girl. My firefly.
I’m the one she runs to when he hurts her and I’m the one who punishes him for it.
And I make her my wife so that the Sterling name will keep her protected long after I’m gone.
But it was always more than just names on a piece of paper. It’s the one thing that makes me fight harder to stay alive.
When the truth is revealed, it doesn’t just shatter me, it forces me to choose between my empire… or my wife.
But they’ve all forgotten who they’re dealing with.
And now they’re going to learn what happens when a cowboy stops playing nice and a mafia boss goes to war.

Blurb
Jayden Vargas and I have history, a past I’ve finally moved on from. But when my dream job pairs me with the only guy to ever break my heart, old wounds surface, and buried feelings come right along with them.
My father is the winningest baseball coach in Texas history, and Jayden Vargas was his favorite player. While my softball skills were elite enough to pay for college, my best friend Jayden was destined for the majors. My dad knew it then. And so did I. Maybe that’s why I fell for him. Or perhaps it was his sad eyes and perfect dimples. One thing is certain, a desperate kiss after the state championship our senior year made those feelings impossible to outrun.
Then he ghosted me completely. Years of friendship gone. My person, no longer a phone call away. The perfect kiss . . . tainted. So I focused on my game. And I turned my talent into the job my father always wanted—an MLB hitting coach.
I’m the first female member of the Sweetwater Mavericks coaching staff. The weight of it isn’t lost on me. And I have my sights set on breaking down more barriers. I’m determined not to let anything get in my way. Not even Mavericks star player Jayden Vargas.
Even if I’ve always been his biggest fan.
So what if it turns out he’s always been mine.
What to expect:
🔥Coach and player romance
❤️Childhood friends to lovers
🚫Twist on taboo
👸🏻Female breaking barriers
💘He falls first and he falls hard
