BLURB

What happens when an ex-military, cocky musician meets a sassy ex-bounty hunter? Sparks will fly.

Tucker Royal was born cocky.

Tall, bearded, and rock star handsome, he is only looking to order two coffees to-go when he walks into Peace Café.

Instead, Tucker leaves with a pocket-rocket spitfire in his arms, returning her safely to Temecula wine country after their meet-cute takes a turn for the worse.

Ophelia doesn’t date. She’s in a committed relationship, working on herself and her soon-to-be-open tiny house Airbnb business, the Fainting Goat Ranch.

Tucker wants a date.

There is a non-date in their future—which in no way gets classified as a date—an ambush is more like it, assisted by Ophelia’s cousin and his wife. It leads to Tucker bringing his secret weapon—his sisters—into play.

The more time spent in Tucker’s witty, banter-filled company, the more she could see the man underneath.

But Ophelia’s guarding a painful secret. In her eyes, love can only wreck you.

It’s a good thing for Ophelia that Tucker’s leaving for a ten-week vacation with his sisters. Things can get back to normal because Gwendoline, her boom box-loving, curvy Aussie BFF, arrives to keep her company and help her run the Airbnb.

Tucker’s vacation turns into a spontaneous secret mission, going off the grid, keeping communication open only with his trusted best friend, Shamus MacDougall.

Tucker finds creative ways to court Ophelia from afar, using his Scottish friends as allies—the Mighty MacDougalls—with hilarious results.

Until trouble comes Ophelia’s way.

Are they fated to be ships in the night, with Ophelia’s secret forever hidden, or can they find their way into each other’s arms, no matter the cost?

Cocky Caveman is a second chance romantic comedy inspired by Cocky Bastard.

COCKY HERO CLUB




 

Here's the thing, I have a serious love hate relationship with second chance romance. If it's not done to perfection I hate it, I need a VERY legitimate reason for the break up; I need BOTH or neither character to have been celibate depending on the break up; and then I need grovelling, like major, world class grovelling. So when I read the blurb for this book I was thinking hard pass.

 

But it kept popping up so I pre-ordered thinking I would eventually get there, like when the next one starts popping up but as soon as it landed on my Kindle I had to read more of this series because I am absolutely loving it.

 

From the first page I was engrossed. Having it told in dual point of view meant that I knew there was more to the story than Talia thought. And I had to know what that was, because Foster was so openly in love with Talia and so desperate to have her hear him out. But damn, did I feel Talia's heartbreak. As much as I felt the chemistry and I went on that whole rollercoaster of emotions. I couldn't put the book down.

 

This book was so perfectly written and the story was beautiful and I'm so glad that I jumped right in. And I'm already dying for the next book, in fact I'm off to see if the preorder is up because I need that story.

 



Release Date: October 4


All I need is a place to hide for a few weeks.

 

The paparazzi were on my ass 24/7 and I needed a bit of breathing room—an escape from the madness—before the media frenzy begins.

 

Sure, I could have gone to a secluded cabin in the woods—but I didn’t want to be bored out of my mind. I’d seen enough wide open spaces as a kid from Texas to last me a lifetime.

 

So instead, I let my agent hook me up with a modest house in the burbs where we didn’t think anyone would find me hiding in plain sight.

 

I’d have a roommate; but supposedly, she was going to give me space. Stay out of my way and respect my boundaries. According to my agent, I wouldn’t hear a peep from her.

 

Wrong. He was wrong about everything and now my life was never going to be the same.

I can't believe that's the end of the series, I want more. I don't know who or how but I am so not ready to leave these guys yet. Each and every book has been great and I have loved all of these characters.

 

And despite the fact that I felt like I knew who Asher was I really wasn't expecting to see so much depth and growth from him. He was so shallow and such a man whore I wasn't really sure what to expect from him.

 

Lola was beautiful. I loved her from the start and seeing how hard she worked I just wanted someone to swoop in and help her. And when Asher was the one swooping in I wasn't sure if he was going to be all that I wanted for her. But then he walked the walk and I couldn't have been happier with his efforts.

 

The book gave me all the feels for Lola and I loved her and Asher together. The epilogue was so cute and I loved the way it wrapped up.

Keep reading for a look inside Boyfriend Material!

Eric’s large frame and rugged handsomeness takes the air from my lungs. His hair is pulled back in a man-bun, my fav look on him.
No. I do not have a favorite look for him, but it does show off his ridiculous cheekbones and aristocratic, slightly bent nose.
He’s wearing jeans, gold Converse, and a HU shirt. The lion on the front seems to glare at me—much like he is now.
I lean against the doorjamb. Be cool, be cool. “Howdy, partner.”
He doesn’t smile. “That guy at the laundromat is scary. Stay away from him. I mean it.”
I huff. The nerve of him to tell me what to do.
“That’s what I told you. I repeat, you could have been hurt. Let me handle Connor.”
His arms cross. “How did you get involved with him? Are you on drugs?”
I tuck my hands in my pockets and dip my head so he can’t see how much his words hurt. I know I strip, no one has to remind me, but in prep school, I was the goody-two shoes who never wavered. I had to keep my grades up to keep my scholarship—not that I was ever invited to parties. I wrote poetry. I drew. I daydreamed about him. “Do I look like an addict?”
His golden eyes roam over me. Assessing. “Maybe.”
My throat tingles with words I want to say but know I shouldn’t.
The less he knows, the better.
His nose flares. “I’m trying to help you and you’re giving me the cold shoulder. What’s wrong with you?”
I swallow thickly as I gaze at him. “Eric. Please. Being around me will only smear your good name—”
“Stop,” he calls out, then rubs his face, his anger seeming to deflate like a popped tire. “Don’t put yourself down like that. You’re a person, Julia. One that people care about.”
And I want to protect those people.
I chew on my bottom lip. “You shouldn’t have interfered.”
He lets out a long sigh, gives me a searching look, goes to leave, then stops. He reaches into his pocket and holds something up. “This is yours, I assume.”
I stare at the ring, my lips parting. “How did you . . .?”
But he’s already out the door.

Release Date: July 27

I’m a type-A planner, but arriving at my best friend’s wedding newly single was not part of the plan.

 

Jilted by my cheating ex-fiancé and left homeless in the process, it’s a no-brainer to take my best friend Jackson up on her offer to stay in her condo in Park City. The only catch? Jackson’s already agreed to let her younger brother Beau stay there for a few weeks.

 

Living with Beau short-term shouldn’t be an issue, except when we meet again for the first time in a decade, our chemistry is off the charts. But Beau is everything I’m not looking for in a guy: he’s unpredictable and self-centered, a known womanizer, and incapable of committing to anything besides traveling the globe snowboarding. Plus, no guy is worth losing my best friend over.

 

As barely tolerating each other turns to barely restrained attraction, our relationship is pushed far past the boundaries we’ve both erected. Can we keep it casual as our relationship heats up, or are we risking every plan we’ve ever made?

 

Author’s Note: If you don’t like adorably possessed shelter puppies, sexy roommates in gray sweatpants, family curses, unexpected trips to Las Vegas, hotel rooms with one bed, and steamy off-limits secret flings, this book isn’t for you. But if you like all that and a happy ending, pre-order this book now!

Meet Julia Connors


Julia Connors grew up on the warm and sunny West Coast, but her first decision as an adult was to trade her flip-flops for snow boots and move to Boston. 

She’s been enjoying everything that New England has to offer for over two decades, and now that she’s acclimated to the snowy winters and finally found all the places to get good sushi and tacos, she has zero regrets. 


You can usually find her in front of her computer, but when she stops writing she’s most likely to be found outdoors, preferably with a pair of skis or snowshoes strapped to her feet in winter, or on a paddleboard in the summer.

Title: Never With Me
Author: Kaylee Ryan
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 26, 2022




BLURB

Ramsey

I’m out of my depth participating in a blind-date photo shoot. Not only am I meant to act like I’m open for dating, but I’m meant to be sexy and get up close and personal with a complete stranger.

None of the above is me. But I’m a sucker, and my best friend can talk me into anything.

Deacon is the kind of guy my heart could be safe with. But I’ve been taking care of myself for a long time, and I’m not sure I’m ready to rely on anyone else. Not even the handsome, successful older brother of my best friend.


Deacon

I never saw her coming. One date with a beautiful stranger and I’m hooked.

Technically, Ramsey isn’t a stranger. She’s my little sister’s best friend, the same sister who volunteered me because she claims “I’m a workaholic in desperate need of love.”

All I know is I can’t stop thinking about Ramsey and the way her lips felt against mine. I have to see her again. Good thing I’m an attorney, because convincing her to take a chance on me is going to be the hardest case I’ve ever pleaded. She’s worried about the past repeating itself. What she’s yet to figure out is that her fear is unnecessary… never with me.

I don't even know where to start with writing this review, I just want to hand everyone the book and say thank me later. But even that feels kind of redundant because obviously you already have it pre-ordered since it's an Ilsa Madden-Mills new release. And to top that it's a Hawthorne hockey book and we get Z and Sugar sprinkled in like confetti.

 

But really the book was awesome. Eric and Julia were both heartbreaking in their brokenness. And yet they were both so together and strong in fighting for what they wanted. And every time I celebrated them going through another trial there was something else they had to deal with. I honestly went through all the feels.

 

Then we get the surprise epilogue and I couldn't have loved it more. Like seriously sweet cherry on the cake. It completely tied all the bows on top of the present that it was. It even gave my vengeful side a little happy dance and then threw in a heap more sweet. Perfect.

 

 

Oh damn was this book heartbreaking in all the very best of ways. And yes I know that sounds weird but every time I cried I had a smile on my face. Because even though these characters went through the very worst time of their lives they came out stronger and far from broken. Even if it took them some time to realise it.

 

Lily and Theo started off kind of at odds. Each of them, stuck in their own grief and guilt and not sure how they should feel or act. And I seriously loved watching them work it out and begin to heal. Even if they still have a lot of things outside of their control they are on the track of a beautiful future.

 

The secondary characters were just as awesome and I'm hoping that we will get their stories and maybe catch up with lily and Theo in the near future. Because every single one of these characters is someone I need to see get their very own happily ever after.

About the Book

Blood, sex and alcohol.

 

That was what Club Worth was all about.

 

Ever since vampires had come out to the world, people had been obsessed. Take a walk on the wild side and see what the nightclub was all about.

 

Acadia Powell, on the other hand, didn’t do vampires. Nor did she do messy.

 

What she did do was stay away from people like Constantine Worth, Master of the City, and the most gorgeous man in the history of men. It didn’t matter that he had hypnotizing eyes, beautiful lips, and the sexiest body she’d ever had the privilege of laying eyes on.

 

It should be easy for her to stay away, but with each subsequent encounter, it’s becoming harder and harder to fight the growing need inside of her.

 

***

 

Constantine Worth knew that Acadia was off limits. Not only was she human and not willing to slum it with the undead, but she was also the baby sister of the city’s chief of police. The man that liked to arrest him every other day and twice on Sunday.

 

He should hate her based solely on the last name she shared with her brother. Yet each time he sees her, he forgets that he’s supposed to be playing nice. She sets his blood to boil, and each time she lets the verbal slurs flow, he finds it harder and harder to maintain his distance.

 

Soon, he will have to make a choice. Maintain his upstanding relationship with human law enforcement, or take what he wants, and damn the consequences.
