Helena Hunting - I could be yours

Releasing on July 10th

The best man ghosted me six years ago after kissing me, and now I have to plan every wedding event under the sun with him.

Nate Stiles is the definition of serious.
Furrowed brow? Check.
Rain cloud personality? Double check.

I shouldn’t be thinking about the fact that our kiss was the best one of my life right now. I should be planning the bachelorette party of the millennium.

I shouldn’t be wondering when Nate became such a good dancer after we got roped into salsa lessons with the happy couple. I should be mentally ticking off boxes on my bridal checklists.

I shouldn’t be wondering what it would be like if I didn’t hate Nate Stiles. I should be holding strong against a man who doesn’t believe in love.

My name is Essie Lovelock. I am a reformed love obsessed fairytale fanatic and I’m determined to be the best maid of honor my best friend could ever had.

And I am absolutely not going to fall for the best man.

Finding You

 

 


One unforgettable night changes everything. 


Finding You

Priestly Family Series Book 2

by Sharon C. Cooper

Genre: Contemporary Romance



One unforgettable night changes everything. 


Zion Priestly has one regret—not getting the full name of the woman he’d spent the most incredible night of his life with. It’s been almost a year, and not a day goes by without him thinking about her. But when a twist of fate brings them face-to-face, Zion is shocked. Especially when she hits him with unexpected news.


Raven Shepherd thought a positive pregnancy test weeks after returning from Vegas was the biggest surprise of her life. Wrong. Running into Zion, the mystery man who she had a one-night stand with wins that award. Who knew leaving Houston to get away from her unhinged ex-boyfriend would send her into the arms of the man she hasn’t stopped dreaming about? Their sexual chemistry is even more intense than before, but Zion is younger than her—something Raven didn’t realize. As for him, he can’t seem to wrap his mind around the fact that he’s a father. 


Just as they manage to push aside all the obstacles keeping them from being together, Raven’s ex shows up with a shocking revelation. Can Zion and Raven have the future they desire? Or will a master manipulator’s lies and schemes keep them from truly being a family?

Believing In You

Priestly Family Series Book 1


They’re opposites in every way, but they might just be the perfect match.

 

After a case of mistaken identity, riddled with betrayal, Harrison Grant is struggling to open himself up to other people again. He lost a part of himself while in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, and it seems impossible to move forward.

 

Enter Nyla Priestly. She’s a woman with a bubbly smile for everyone she meets and who always has a kind word to say. The jaded version of Harrison wants to doubt her personality is real. No one can be that happy all the time. Right?

 

Nyla has never been into the broody type. Yet something about Harrison makes her body crave him. Sure, he’s gorgeous and happens to be one of the sexiest saxophone players she’s ever met. But achieving her dream of owning Moody Days Jazz Club is top priority. She doesn’t have time to deal with a man. No matter how good he makes her feel.

 

As Harrison falls for Nyla and helps her fulfill her dreams, can her unceasing love be enough for him to trust again?

Three Dogs, Two Murders and a Cat #Spotlight

 

 


Nicolette Briggs doesn't do humans. 


Three Dogs, Two Murders, and a Cat

Nicolette Briggs Mystery Book 1

by Rodney Strong

Genre: Cozy Mystery



Nicolette Briggs doesn’t do humans.

As Wellington’s premier, and possibly only, animal detective, Nicolette mostly investigates missing pets and cases of animal cruelty. So when her latest client asks her to investigate a case of a poisoned cat, it seems right up her alley. Until a body shows up, then another, and suddenly despite her resolve to not get involved, Nicolette is right in the middle two murder investigations. Or is it just one killer?

When someone breaks into her house and one of her dogs is injured, Nicolette’s reluctance turns to determination to not only solve this thing before the police, but show up her stubborn police detective brother in the process.

Along the way she has to navigate a daughter about to turn 15, a dwindling bank account, and a dysfunctional family that seems determined to fix her. Not to mention a killer who’s turned their sights her way.

No wonder she doesn’t do humans.

Three Dogs, Two Murders, and a Cat is the first book in the clean, cozy mystery series. Gilmore Girls meets Nancy Drew, with a touch of dysfunctional families, a touch of humour, and a touch of caring.


Amazon * Bookbub * Goodreads





Rodney Strong quit a 9-5 job in 2016 to finally pursue his life long dream of becoming a writer (he still has the very first play he wrote at age 6). He lives in Porirua, New Zealand, with his wife, two children, and two cats. When he's not writing he attempts to stay away from chocolate, runs (sometimes), reads, and enjoys spending time with his young children (who contribute a lot to the running and craving for chocolate).

He always has a couple of projects on the go, but for now is focusing on his series of cozy mysteries.

One of his cats likes to help with the process by sitting on the laptop, while the other likes nesting on his shoulders (which was cute when he was a kitten, but now the cat is 11 years old, is less so).

ROUGH AROUND THE HEDGES

 




ROUGH AROUND THE HEDGES by @emmahartauthor is coming to Kindle Unlimited on June 19th! Get ready for this sexy, snarky, enemies-to-lovers romcom

Blurb:

He’s the city boy who wants to destroy the place she loves most.

She’s the countryside girl who is determined to break him first.

But when hearts are involved, can either of them truly win?

I, Rose Matthews, have always considered myself a perfectly reasonable person.

Until the day Oliver de Havilland—the hottie I wham, bam, thank you ma’am’d two weeks ago—shows up at Hanbury Allotments and hands me a closure notice. In two months, he’s going to shut down the place I love the most—the very place that keeps the dwindling community of our village alive.

Long story short; I’m ready to riot.

Riot. Protest. Run naked through the village centre with nothing but lettuce leaves covering my lady bits. You know, the usual.

The new Duke of Hanbury is as arrogant as the last, but there’s no way I’m going to let him get away with this. Especially not since his plan is to sell the land to make way for more cookie-cutter housing nobody wants.

This is more than a battle of wits—it’s a war, and a dirty one at that.

But I won’t lose.

Because if Oliver didn’t want to play dirty, he shouldn’t have roughed up a gardener...

Stilettos and Outlaws

 

 


Fast-paced, funny and full of wild twists. Gemma is a force of nature in this quirky, action-packed ride through Arizona’s weirdest crimes.


Stilettos and Outlaws

Deputy Gemma Stone Book 4

by Gail Koger

Genre: Action, Romantic Comedy



My name is Gemma Stone and I’ve been a Maricopa County Sheriff’s Deputy for five years and nothing has prepared me for the return of the wild, wild West. A bloodthirsty outlaw gang straight out of the 1850’s is rustling cattle, robbing trains and killing people. These two-legged varmints are also linked to a dangerous enemy from my parents’ past who is determined to destroy our family.

My personal life got even more complicated. Off duty, I’m a ballroom dancer and my dad has always been supportive of my dancing, but to discover the reason why was jaw dropping. What other secrets was he hiding?

Dealing with hyperactive chickens blowing things up, an overprotective Brahma bull and Grandpa Reynolds suddenly parking his RV in our pasture makes me think Armageddon is coming to Arizona.

Law enforcement isn’t for the fainthearted. Are you crazy enough to enter my world?


Author’s note: I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher for way too many years and this novella contains some of the wilder incidents that occurred.

Howdy. My name is Gail Koger and once upon a time I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Too many years of wild requests, screwy questions, bizarre behavior and outrageous demands have left me with a permanent twitch and an uncontrollable craving for chocolate. I took up writing science fiction romance to keep from killing people. So far, it has worked.

The Book of Aesop: The New World Order

The Book of Aesop Book 1



★★★★★

“…an intriguing blend of political thriller with paranormal fiction, sci-fi, and romance.”

– Readers’ Favorite

 

It’s 2020 and our protagonist, a Mr Eric Pickles, has embarked on a coach journey when he meets the beautiful Gabrielle Smith-Rawlings. They sit together for the duration, getting acquainted, and he invites her to the house in the seaside town of Whitby in North Yorkshire where he’s staying, owned by Edith Crumble, the kind lady of the house and a dear friend of Eric’s.


Was it merely a coincidence that this beautiful young lady was on the same coach as our hero? Eric is an unassuming toy salesman, and Gabrielle works in Export and Innovations for the Department of International Trade in London. But do they, really? The readers later learn that, unbeknownst to each other, they both work for MI6 at their headquarters at Vauxhall Cross on the banks of the river Thames, and both are involved in secret programmes for the UK government.


There are several characters who all intertwine with Eric and Gabby, including Primrose Allgood, another resident of Edith’s house; Rupert Horatio Sniffles (Nighthawk), second in command to Eric (Hawk); Evelyn Trousseau (Gymslip), third in command under Rupert; Edgar Fairbanks (Eagle Eye), the head of the organization and Eric’s boss; Sir Robert Embury Jones (Fencer), Gabrielle’s boss; and many others with personal, romantic and business ties to our protagonist and his lady.
This exciting thriller contains a vicious attack on a lead character by an assassin who sacrifices her own life, the murder of a beloved character, several romances and ones in the making and plot twists that will have your head spinning.


Nothing is as it seems, as the story will take the readers on a rollercoaster of twists and turns involving several identities, nefarious plot lines and hidden dangers. It’s a book of romantic fantasy laced with espionage and mystery.

Eric, you are a very successful toy salesman and a most valued agent of MI6 with the destiny of planet Earth in your hands wearing your clothes with my mind and gifted with an intelligence that is way beyond your wildest dreams! What you must understand, Eric, is that the Ispirian people have searched every planet in every universe in the Milky Way and beyond for tens of thousands of years searching for you, the chosen one, Aesop.”


Just when you think you have it all figured out, think again. There are 3 more books in the Aesop series, so stay tuned for more mystery and romance!
