BLURB

Fake marry the smokin’-hot NFL quarterback who dumped me in high school? Hard pass.

…Or it would be, if my Hollywood disaster of an ex-fiancé wasn’t trying to destroy my career—and bankrupt me in the process.

Cue Presley Lowe.
Big-time quarterback. Bigger ego. Even bigger... contract.
The boy who broke my heart, then dared to somehow get even hotter with age.

He says a fake marriage will solve both our problems.
I say he’s lost his mind.

But I’m broke, blacklisted, and backed into a corner.
So now I’m wearing Presley’s ring, taking couple-selfies, and sleeping one wall away from the man who gave me my first heartbreak—and my last good kiss.

I pretend not to notice when he walks around shirtless.
He pretends he doesn’t remember exactly how I like to be kissed.

We’re both lying.
But it’s all temporary. Totally fake.

Right?

So why does every look he gives me scream mine?

And why am I starting to feel like there’s nothing I wouldn’t give to keep hearing him say, my wife?

What happens when your fake husband is also the boy you never got over?

A Small Town, Hockey, Forbidden, Standalone Romance from USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Laura Pavlov.


Hockey is my first love. And I’m coming off the best season of my life.
In the process of scoring the winning goal that gave us the Stanley Cup I tore my MCL, and I’ll need to spend the next few months recovering.
Eloise Gable, the team’s new physical therapist, has been sent to Rosewood River to help me heal and get me ready for the new season.
Yet, she doesn’t seem all too happy about the situation.
In fact, she can’t stand me most days.
It doesn’t stop me from staring at her any chance I get.
She’s beautiful and brilliant, but she’s got her guard up the minute I get close.
Eloise is a distraction I wasn’t prepared for.
Did I mention that she’s also my coach’s daughter?
But after a long run together in the summer heat, our built up tension snapped.
We end up stripping down and jumping in the river.
It seemed like the logical thing at the time.
The problem is, Eloise Gable is completely off limits.
But I’m a professional hockey player, and in my world, limits were meant to be pushed.
Hockey may be my first love, but after falling for my coach’s daughter—it’s definitely not my last.

BIGGEST PLAYER

Sara Ney

Release Date: July 29





Blurb:

Bestselling author Sara Ney scores with a fiery romance about online dating, where a single mom and a football pro ignite sparks when they swipe right—even though they know it’s all wrong.

Margot’s a busy single mom juggling teaching, parenting, and trying not to die alone. Dating apps? Total nightmare. But desperate times call for desperate swipes, even if they make her break out in stress hives. When she matches with a guy who looks too good to be true, she’s convinced he’s a walking red flag—or worse—a catfish.

Dex is hot, and he knows it. A quarterback with a killer smile and looks to spare, he’s a good guy looking for a long-term relationship. He wants what his friends have: someone to come home to…and if they’re naked when he gets there, even better. When he logs on for a casual scroll, he’s not expecting to meet her. One swipe, and suddenly he’s hooked.

Margot’s convinced he’s a catfish. Dex has zero dad bod and no dad energy. But their sizzling back-and-forth leaves them both thinking “what if.” After a surprise run-in leads to a mind-blowing (and soggy AF) kiss, their opposites-attract energy skyrockets. Can they find a way to make it last?

Sara Ney writes such quirky characters; I can't help but instantly feel like I know them. It feels like I'm sitting having a coffee catching up with them as I read the words and I can't get enough. And then my kids get sick and needy and won't let me hide away and read my damn book. Ugh.


Seriously. I picked this up and instantly wanted Margot to be my bestie. She was so sure of who she was but not in a way that she didn't come across as full of herself. And Wyatt was hilarious. As a mother of a 7 going on 27-year-old with way too much attitude, I actually felt some of those conversations happening. 


And Dex started out the definition of the song man child. He was such a cute little clueless bubble. I wanted to smack him on the back of his head and then hug him. But he was so genuinely nice and clueless it was hard to hold his stupid against him and I loved how Margot dealt with it.


This book was such a fun read with a heaping of hotness thrown in and ive put it down with a huge smile. It's 100% a standalone but it was awesome getting the update on Landon and Harlow in the epilogue. I can't wait to see what she writes next.

BLURB:

Callum Grey has been obsessed with Lilac Fairbanks for as long as he can remember. She’s the one girl he can’t have because she's his best friend’s little sister, but he’ll do anything to keep her safe. His bad-boy reputation is meant to deceive everyone, because he’s been protecting her in secret all along.

One reckless dare takes a deadly turn when Callum and Lilac break into the mansion on the cliffs and witness a murder that puts a target on them. With everyone pointing fingers, Lilac’s parents try to leverage the scandal to trap her in a marriage with a guy who makes her skin crawl. Callum offers her a way out: a public proposal that will create a distraction from the night on the cliffs and ruin her mother’s plans in one stroke.

Agreeing to a fake engagement comes with a price. Callum has rules: they’ll act like a real couple, whether they’re in public or not. Lilac quickly discovers that her first crush who taught her how to skate all those years ago has a new favorite game that involves a mask and chasing her through the graveyard. When their friends begin turning up dead, Lilac quickly realizes that this engagement is anything but fake to Callum, and there isn’t anyone he wouldn’t cross to protect her.
