Forgotten Desires by Corinne Michaels Release Blitz

He’s a billionaire in need of a wife…
And I’m his ex who can’t say no to him.

Ten years ago Carson Knight was my one great love, but he abandoned me without a trace.

Now he’s a billionaire single dad in need of a temporary wife.

And he’s at my house on one knee with a proposal…

Marry him, so he’s more likely to win full custody of his daughter, keeping her safe from her unstable mother. In return, he’ll take care of the medical expenses for a surgery my father needs to survive.

Reluctantly, I agree to tie the knot, on one condition. Once those custody papers are signed, we go our separate ways. Because he’s even more gorgeous, charming, and sweeter than he was back then, and I don’t trust myself not to fall for my fake husband.

Especially when I hear him say “my wife.”

Or feel his hands on my skin. Taste his kiss or see the way he looks at me with those blue eyes and know that our carefully crafted rules will shatter.

Right alongside my heart.

Mary – ☆☆☆☆☆
It has been ten years since Brynlee has seen Crew, and now he is at her brother's wedding. They spent a wonderful week together and then he disappeared in the middle of the night. She searched for him but never found him. She must pull herself together to face him and find out what happened. Or act like she doesn't care, because he left her all those years ago.

Crew/Carson can't believe his luck. The woman he fell in love with on that perfect spring break is at the wedding. He has to talk to her and explain why he left her.

This story is filled with past pain, lost love, a marriage of convenience, a billionaire small-town romance, and you can't forget Crew's daughter. I love this author, and this series is one of my favorites. I hope you will enjoy it too.

Falling for Her by Kelly Elliott Release Blitz

Wes Ward finds himself in new territory. Less than a year ago, he lived in New York City in a fantastic loft that overlooked upper Manhattan. Women in and out of his bed anytime he wanted and not a damn care in the world.

Now?

Now, he finds himself back in Boston plotting ways to stop his high school girlfriend, Mandy, from getting married, dodging his mother's every attempt at helping him settle down, and trying to understand why Clare Monroe makes him forget everything and everyone when she smiles at him.

What is this insane feeling he feels anytime Clare is near him? Why can't he stop thinking about her every second of every day?

And what does he do about Mandy, the woman he fought so hard for who is willing to give their relationship another try right when Wes is ready to admit his feelings for Clare?

This is NOT a love triangle book :)

Falling for Her is a friends-to-lovers trope and can be read as a standalone but the author highly recommends you start at the beginning of the series.

Shannan – ☆☆☆☆
Falling for Her is the third installment in the Boston Love series. It can be read as a standalone without issue, but I warn you if you do that, you will, in fact, be adding the first two in the series to your to-be-read list immediately.

Wes comes back to Boston to stop is ex, Mandy, from getting married. Making her jealous seems to be a great plan and fake dating Clare, his sister-in-law’s best friend, seems like a perfect match. The more time he spends with Clare, he isn't so sure stopping Mandy is the best idea. Clare and Wes bicker and fight every time they are together but something about her draws him in in ways he never expected.

The banter between Clare and Wes was on point! I couldn't get enough of them. I so enjoyed watching him fall for her. Fake dating isn't my favorite trope, but this one is done very well. They have great chemistry overall.

I can't wait for what's next!

Wright Kind of Love by K.A. Linde Release Blitz

The conclusion to the Wright duet age gap romance from USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde.

Chase Sinclair should be my enemy.

Wrights and Sinclairs don’t mix. Not with years of history and turmoil between our families. A rivalry that only seems to fester and corrode with time.

Except I’m done denying what I want.

We both are.

Just when we think we have it figured out, it all blows up in our faces.

But we’re determined to make this work. Even knowing that the road ahead is uncertain. And everyone wants us to fail. At least we’re doing this together.

Everything is on the line. Our friends, our families, our careers. And we’d give it all up.

He may be from the wrong family, but he’s my Wright person.

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the second half of the story of Harley and Chase's love story, so make sure you read Wright Kind of Trouble before this, or you will be very confused. To be honest, you should read all the Wright Vineyard books to enjoy all the backstories which add to the whole.

Just as Harley graduates and she and Chase allow themselves to be together, everything blew up with her brothers finding out – because Chase is a Sinclair, and the bad blood between them and the Wrights is real. We now get to find out how they manage to navigate their relationship when many around them want it to fail. Add to that, Harley's (pretty evil) father still wants to control her future, and her mother still can't resist his charms... and Harley is having to defend herself and start her career with a lot of pressures from all sides. Not the best place to engage fully in a new relationship – but she and Chase are strong and genuinely perfect for each other, if only everyone else can get the message!

I was so happy that these two lovely people finally got their chance at happiness. It has been a long time coming. I also loved catching up with all the previous couples and seeing how they had to acknowledge their growth in accepting their changing family dynamics.

She’s being suspected of setting her workplace on fire.
He needs to prove it wasn’t her.
Now he’s on a mission to convince the one that got away that they belong together.

Ashlynn Donovan’s life just hit rock bottom. She lost her job, there are no prospects on the horizon, and she just unknowingly flashed the hot new firefighter in town. This isn’t the first time she’s embarrassed herself in front of him, but she was prepared to react the same way she did years ago – by running away. But Reid’s persistent and isn’t ready to let her get away a second time.

Reid Baylor always hoped to return to Sweetbriar Ridge—the only place he’s felt a connection to after a lifetime spent moving from place to place. When he learns of an opening in the fire department, he jumps at the chance to return to the small town he wants to call home again. And just when he thinks life can’t get any better, he runs into the one girl he’s never been able to forget.

When Ashlynn is suspected of arson for the fire at her former workplace, Reid’s dream of becoming a fire inspector is on the line—and so is any chance he had with Ashlynn. Will his chance at getting both his dream job and the girl of his dreams go up in flames?

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
3.5 stars rounded up

This is the second book in the series, and I would recommend you start at book one as you will be well acquainted with Sweetbriar Ridge if you do – and we see how Lyric and Mason's relationship progresses here too, which is fun.

Ashlynn is not really presented in the best of lights, although as the book develops, we can see that maybe her initial outburst is not entirely unprovoked. She is not one to forgive and forget – which is why when her high school nemesis, Reid, moves into town, she is not really rational!

It is fun to watch them understand the viewpoint of the other and take steps to move past the embarrassment and forge a real connection. Inevitably there is some drama – with a rather strange twist to the plot and plays out rather slowly – but it does give Ashlynn a chance to grow up a bit and move forward with a better outlook on life and love.

I do enjoy the side plot of the local ski resort being developed and can see lots of opportunities for fun stories ahead!

Wright Kind of Trouble by K.A. Linde Release Blitz

An age gap, enemy’s little sister romance set in the Wright world about Harley Wright & Chase Sinclair from USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde.

He didn’t know I was ten years younger.
I didn’t know he was a Sinclair.

He didn’t care that I was a Wright.
I knew exactly what I wanted.

Yet, I know none of this when I fall into his bed.

Touching him is like finally waking after a long sleep and the thought of being without him is like driving a knife through my chest. But it's worse—he was almost engaged to my brother's wife—which makes him public enemy number one.

Our families hate each other.
No one can know what we did.
If any of my four older brothers find out, they will run him out of town.

And still… I want him.

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the seventh book in the series and to get all the goodness you really need to start from the very beginning – as this book covers events from different perspectives which have already happened, and it was so rich to glimpse reminders of big things for other couples from a new line of sight. We also finally get to understand more of Hayley's thinking over that time.

There is nothing to dislike in this sexy waiting game, impossible to resist romance, which has been happening throughout Hayley's undergraduate studies. She and Chase had an instant connection, but he wanted her to have the chance to make her own life rather than being subsumed into his. There is only good in that intention, but it is a difficult one to stomach... for both of them really. I love that we get to see them slip up every now and again and yet they cannot possibly let go entirely.

It is fast-paced and full of fun, so whilst time is passing, we still get plenty of passion and hope for a true happily ever after. We are given somewhat of a cliffhanger, which means I am already in need of the next book, NOW!

Tempting Promises by Corinne Michaels Release Blitz

What’s the worst thing you could do when you’re stranded in the woods with your rival?

Sleep with him. That’s what.

Not only is Rowan Whitlock my sister’s ex, but we’re both vying for the contract that would save my family farm.

So why did it have to be Rowan who came to the rescue after I fell on a remote hiking trail? When the weather turned unexpectedly, we were forced to find shelter and ride out the storm. Only that wasn’t the only thing I ended up riding.

We promise ourselves what happens at the cabin stays at the cabin, but when we get back to Sugarloaf, it’s impossible to stay away from him. Those blue eyes captivate me, his strong body comforts me, and he makes me feel beautiful.

Which is crazy, right?

If only my stupid head would listen and stop this before my heart gets involved, but I keep going back because I’m already in too deep.

I should’ve known that the temptation wasn’t worth the risk because when it all falls apart, our promises are broken, and I’m afraid my heart will never recover.

Mary – ☆☆☆☆☆
This is an enemies-to-lovers story, and it turns out that Charlotte was the one who did not like Rowan because of what her sister told her. It turns out that her sister lied.

After seeing what his mother went through, Rowan has never wanted to be in a relationship. He was fine being single. Charlotte didn't want to get close to anyone because each time she did, they left. First, her parents died in a car accident; then, her grandparents died; and then, her sister left her to live in the city. She thought she was better off alone.

After spending several days together in the woods, in the freezing rain, running low on food, and her having an injured ankle, they turned their dislike into something more. The feeling was sizzling, and it was one way to keep warm.

I love this series and think Rowan and Charlotte are my favorites so far. Their banter and his protectiveness of her made this a true Whitlock story. I was not happy with Charlotte's sister; she was the one who caused all this dislike and she tried to make Charlotte feel bad for loving Rowan. All I can say is you need to read this one, if you haven't, then start from the beginning of the series. You do not want to miss any of the Whitlock brothers. I cannot wait for Brynlee's story.

Loved Enough by Kelly Elliott Release Blitz

Even though they’d never dated, Lily Shaw always just assumed she’d eventually end up with Ben, the boy who’s been her bestie since they were toddlers. So she’s understandably shocked to learn he’s getting married—and having a child with his fiancée. Shocked… but not terribly upset. The truth is, she's been feeling butterflies every time she’s near a particular horse trainer on her parents’ ranch. Unfortunately, though attracted to Lily, Maverick’s decided he has nothing to offer her beyond a good time.

The Shaws are all about family, something Maverick Prescott admires. But despite his boss treating him like another son, and Maverick wanting the man’s daughter in the worst way, how can he start something he doesn’t think he can finish? He has nothing to offer Lily, not even his own heritage. Just a past filled with so much pain, he decided a long time ago he’s best off spending his life alone, tending to the rescue horses who are just as damaged as Maverick.

Lily, however, is a typical Shaw—stubborn as the day is long. Getting into Maverick’s bed is the easy part; getting into his heart is the real challenge. But maybe if he feels loved enough, he’ll be willing to give them a chance.

Loved Enough is a stand-alone novel but for a better reading experience the author invites you to read the books in order.

Loved Enough is the fifth installment in the Love in Montana series. It can be read as a standalone but reads much better if you read it in the order that the author intended. Each book builds upon the next and having each character's story reads so much better.

Lily Shaw thought she'd eventually end up with her best friend, Ben. Her feelings grew the more time they spent together until he got a girlfriend who was jealous of their friendship. Ben had to choose between them and didn't choose Lily. Lily was hurt but becoming friends with the sexy cowboy working on her father's ranch, Maverick Prescott. Lily's parents treated Maverick like one of their own. Maverick had a rough past and found a family with the Shaws. One that he didn't think he deserved even though they tried to show him time and time again.

Maverick didn't want to get close to Lily Shaw – not only was she the boss's daughter, he couldn't willing give his heart to anyone. But Lily knew what she wanted and was more than a little stubborn. She was willing fight for Maverick for the both of them.

Maverick and Lily have chemistry from the start. I can understand his being cautious not because he's not attracted to Lily but because he's lost so much, but he had so much more to gain with Lily and the Shaws. And I absolutely loved seeing Nathan take Ben down a few notches!!

I love this family with each generation and the world that Kelly Elliott has created. I can't wait for more!!
