Release Blitz Fragile Sanctuary {Sparrow Falls #1} by Catherine Cowles

Release Date: May16, 2024

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house.

He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack.

Until he sees me shatter.

Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall. And as so-called accidents start plaguing every part of my life, it’s Anson who steps in to keep me safe.

As he does, I can’t help but feel a flicker of heat. And it only takes a single moment for that spark to ignite into flames, engulfing us both.

But Anson’s a man with secrets, and they have a price. When they’re revealed, neither of us will make it out unscathed…

Release Blitz & Review The One I Left Behind {Plain Daisy Ranch #1} by Piper Rayne

 

Release Date: May 14, 2024

It’s the classic story of a boy goes off into the world to fulfill his dreams and leaves the girl behind.

Not every boy returns home, and I wish Ben Noughton wouldn’t have come back to our small ranching town at all after he retired from playing professional football.

I figure it’s a quick layover for him. He always wanted out of this town and off his family’s ranch. I just have to bide my time until he turns his back on all of us again.

Then he takes on the coaching position for the high school football team and starts milling around too much, bulldozing the protective walls I’ve built around myself. But he goes too far when he takes my son under his wing to help him be the best player he can be. Leaving me to protect not only my own heart but my son’s too.

Because I promised myself a long time ago that I’d never be the girl in the rearview mirror again.

Review

I am such a "cover girl" and because of the gorgeous cover on this book I just found myself a new author to get lost in. 

I loved the flow of this book and the backstory to the characters that created the perfect second chance romance. 

Gillian at first chooses distance from Ben but having him in the same small town again tends to wear how down quickly. She decides to live in the present and enjoy what time they have together. 

If Ben had his way they would have picked up where they left off but he was respectful of her feelings and those of her son. 

I could understand Clayton's need to protect his mother and his animosity towards Ben. But there moments when Clayton lets Ben in. 

They have pursued their dreams separately and now need to see of they can build a life together. 

If you are looking for an enjoyable second chance romance with wonderful characters give this book a try. I will be looking forward to the next installment in this series.

Release Blitz & Review Meant for Her by Natasha Madison

Release Date: May 10, 2024 

Christopher

I came from the biggest hockey family in the NHL.

Records were set by my grandfather, my father, and now my brother. 

I was taught to love the game, but more than that, I learned early the men you play with are your family.

You get on the ice every night and protect them, celebrate the wins, and pick each other up when you fall. 

So when we lost Benji, I stepped in to help his wife and kids, but this pull I feel when it comes to them is something more than I can even understand. 

 

Dakota

My life was perfect, until it wasn’t.

Gone was the husband I thought I knew and in his place was a stranger.

I saw him change before my eyes. 

Then he was gone, leaving me and our girls alone. 

I wanted nothing to do with anyone or anything that took him away from me.

But no matter how many times I’ve told his best friend I don’t need help.

He’s here doing things for us, and the worst part is, I want him to.

Review

I have am a huge fan of Natasha's hockey-verse but there was just something about Christopher & Dakota's story that was a little extra.  That extra may have just made this my favorite read from her. 

This story starts off in a sad place but Dakota does her best to keep her head above water and move forward with her children all the while protecting them. 

Christopher has known Dakota and her girls for years but after their loss he tries to step up to support them. I think at first the felt obligated to look after them but it slowly turned to something more.  

They had a level of comfort that almost made it seem like they were two missing pieces to a puzzle that fit together.   I loved Christopher's relationship with the girls. You could feel the love between all of the characters. 

For me the story just flowed from one chapter to the next and I was truly engaged in their journey to their HEA. 

Of course Natasha gives us those infamous family texts and appearances from family characters that we have met and love to see in her books.

Meet Natasha Madison:

When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

Release Day Blitz & Review Well and Truly Pucked by Lauren Blakely

Release Date: May 9, 2024

 I swear I only asked one hot hockey-playing friend to give me romance lessons for the week, but threehockey stars volunteered…

The post breakup plan was simple – escape from my toxic ex to a vacation rental and stay far away from men.

But thanks to a booking snafu I’m accidentally sharing it with three hot hockey players. One’s flirty, one’s broody, one’s a cheeky Brit, and they’re all the most attentive men I’ve ever met.

After a couple of glasses of champagne, I’m telling them about the contest my ex is running on his dating advice web site. The topic? What makes a great boyfriend, and I want to submit a column.

All three offer to show me every single thing I’ve been missing in and out of bed.

We make a deal for one week only. It’s only for revenge, of course. I work for the other hockey team in the city so it’d be a big mistake to truly get involved with a rival, let alone three.

Even though I melt under their touch. They show me what it means to be adored, cherished and romanced.

But as the week ticks on, what started as revenge fast turns into me giving my heart to three men I can’t have. Looks like I’m well and truly pucked.

Review 

This book has a why choose theme. It is not my favorite trope but the book was a  good read for me. 

I mean what better way to get back at your ex than by spending your time with 3 hottie hockey players.  

Briar's interaction with each of the men was different making the group dynamic work.   The interaction throughout the book steamy and full of humor. 

If you like hockey romance , forces proximity and why choose this could be your next read.

Release Day Blitz & Review Skies Over Caledonia by Samantha Young

 

Release Date: May 9, 2024

He’s a down-to-earth highland farmer. She’s the rebellious daughter of Hollywood royalty. They might seem like they’re from different worlds, but that won’t stop them from engaging in a marriage of convenience…

It’s been five years since Jared McCulloch’s grandfather Collum passed away and he inherited his farm in the Scottish Highlands. After his grandad saved him from his past life, Jared is determined to honor Collum’s legacy. But not only has a series of bad luck put him in danger of losing the farm, his estranged father is disputing the will. In a desperate situation, Jared realizes he’ll do just about anything to save the land.

Even marrying Allegra Howard, a woman he’s avoided at all costs.

A woman who tempts him beyond reason.

There’s only one place that makes Allegra Howard feel safe; one place that feeds her artist’s soul. Allegra wants to settle down in Scotland and expand her business. But there’s a hitch: immigration intends to return her to US soil.

Panicked, Allegra finds the one person just as desperate as she is. The same person she’s lusted after for years. In exchange for marrying her, she’ll invest financially in Jared McCulloch’s farm.

However, living together only forces them to acknowledge their searing mutual attraction. And with it comes an undeniable emotional connection Jared’s not sure he’s ready for.

Yet, blurring the lines of their arrangement is the least of his concerns when someone begins terrorizing the farm.

Allegra and Jared came together to save what matters most and now that might just be each other. And unless they can figure out which of their pasts has returned to torment them, they could lose their chance at a real future together...

Review 

This was a great book about forgiveness, fresh starts and family and love.  Jared and Allegra were from different worlds but so right for one another.  

An arranged marriage to meet both of their needs leads to them learning to get one another and create a whole new set of needs. 

As always their is an underlying level of suspense and secrets that come to light. Allegra's past was  complicated and heartbreaking at times. Jared has his own tumultuous childhood and unresolved feelings/guilt when it came to his grandfather's passing. 

A well told story that will keep you engaged and entertained from beginning to end. This may very well be my favorite book in those series edging out Sloane and Walker. 

I also love that we revisit with past characters and get an update on their lives.
