Dead to their pasts. Ghosts. No family ties. No connections.

Six men with a top-secret mission move to a small town where they have to navigate local life, protect their secret, and, above all, stay single.

Software engineer Caroline Crowell is a dead woman walking. When the top-secret lab she’s working in goes up in flames and she barely makes it out alive, she knows her time is up. If she wants to stay alive and protect the only family she has left, she has to disappear.

But first she needs help. Someone to watch her back and make sure her enemy doesn’t get any closer while she plans her escape.

Seth “Phantom” King trusts no one but his team. He knows what people are capable of, and he knows how far a person can be pushed before they break. And what he sees when Callie shows up at One Shot Tactical looking for help is a woman about to reach the point of no return.

He doesn’t want to be drawn in by her fear, doesn’t want to believe she’s anything but a potential suspect in his mission. But his teammates have proven that you can’t stop feeling something for a woman even when you know you aren’t supposed to. Denying it only makes it worse.

When the danger Callie fears comes to town, Seth has a choice. Fight for the future he needs. For the woman he needs.

Or watch everything go up in smoke.

A Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Military Protector Romance from Lynn Raye Harris.

Author: Kelly Elliott
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Small Town/Hidden Identity
Friends to Lovers/Forced Proximity
Release Date: March 18, 2025


BLURB

Kian Carter is stuck in a rut. A successful lawyer in his parents’ New York City office, he’s sick and tired of their greed, their lifelong insistence on putting their powerhouse practice above all else—including Kian and his siblings. So he does what he should have done long ago, what his brother and sister did…Kian turns his back on law. Quitting the firm and moving back to the only home he’s ever known, quiet Moose Village in Upstate New York.

Not much ever changes in the tiny town in the foothills of the Adirondacks. Or so Kian thought. But this time, there’s one big difference: Moose Village is playing host to a mystery woman. And she happens to be working at his aunt’s bakery. Lovely Cadie Waterford is the talk of the town gossips, as much for her luscious banana bread as her unwillingness to talk about her past.

Kian’s not normally one to engage in gossip…but the more time he spends with Cadie, the more intrigued he becomes. Whatever her secrets may be, he’s sure he can handle them—but when words like FBI, CIA, and even murder come into play, does Cadie need more protection than Kian thought?

Or does Moose Village need protection from Cadie…?

THE DRUMMER'S HEART by Penelope Ward - NEW RELEASE

 



Title: The Drummer's Heart
Author: Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Rockstar Hero/"My Wife"/Small Town
Close Proximity/Slow Burn/One Bed
Release Date: February 23, 2025


BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…

Don’t say her name.
That was the one rule my bandmates followed, because they knew how much it messed me up to think about her, especially on tour.
My ex, Nicole.
The one who got away and the woman who still owned every piece of my heart.
After our divorce, I threw myself into the rock scene, trying to forget my heartbreak.
Three years after we split, a phone call from Nicole changed everything.
She told me her grandmother wasn’t doing well.
Mimi was still family to me, and she apparently had one wish before dying: to spend time with us—Nicole and me.
With Mimi’s caretaker away on vacation, it would be the ideal time for us to move in with her for a couple of weeks.
Of course, I couldn’t refuse.
But there was a catch.
Nicole apparently never told her that we’d gotten a divorce.
She hadn’t believed Mimi could handle it, because her grandmother loved me so much.
So, not only would I have to see Nicole again, but I’d be pretending to still be her husband.
Two weeks in a tiny house in a small town with the woman who broke my heart. Or was it me who broke hers?
It was complicated.
And it was about to be a heck of a lot more complicated sharing one bed in the guest room with a woman who wasn’t mine anymore.

INK & STARDUST by Melissa Toppen - NEW RELEASE

 



Title: Ink & Stardust
Series: Ink & Ashes #1
Author: Melissa Toppen
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Trope: College Romance
Release Date: February 21, 2025


BLURB

Fate is a funny little thing.
It had a good laugh when I found my boyfriend of four years in bed with my best friend.
It was rolling on the floor when the same backstabbing beasts stole my dream school, landing me in a different state, where I didn’t know a single soul.

You’d think after all that, it’d cut me a break, right?
Wrong.

Enter its next jest, and this one’s a doozy.
Kai Elliot. Campus womanizer. Self-proclaimed bad boy. And the new bane of my existence—but not for the reason you might think.

Kai is as beautiful as the ink that mars his skin. Perfect lines. Vibrant colors. Designs as intricate as the man who bears them. I knew from the first moment I laid eyes on him that he was dangerous. A man who would destroy everything I stood for, stripping me bare for the world to see, and that’s exactly what he does.

I don’t love him. Hell, I don’t even like him. But that doesn’t stop me from injecting him into my veins like he’s my own personal brand of narcotics. Nothing can top the high he gives me, which is why I keep coming back for more, even when I know I shouldn’t.

And just when I think maybe fate isn’t that bad after all, it goes and gets my traitorous heart involved. Because the only thing worse than loving a man who betrays you- is loving a man who will never love you back.

If fate is real, I’m pretty sure it hates me.

Ridin' for Hell
Twisted Devil

Ridin' for Hell
In this life, you reap what you sow…
Not everyone wants to run from their past.
Some bastards embrace the chance to hunt their prey and seek vengeance. They thrive on carnage. Like me.
It’s the reason I’m the club’s SGT at Arms.
I handle the hard shit and the messy jobs for my pres. Anything that inflicts pain and spills blood. I love to lose control because that’s when my demons come out to play.
Protecting my club and finding justice for my sister are all I have left after six years without closure.
Revenge and chaos have become my life.
Until I meet a sexy nurse who changes everything. Nylah is the light to my darkness. The angel sent to save a demon.
When my past threatens her, I can’t stay in the shadows any longer. I’ll raise Hell to keep her safe and make her mine. Not a single soul can stop me.
They call me Azrael, the Angel of Death—a one-way ticket to Hell. When you see me, run. I won’t show mercy.
My Reaper is ready to ride. And where he goes, death and destruction follow. I’ll have my vengeance, my woman, and justice, no matter the consequences.

Twisted Devil
The Royal Bastards MC is mine. My club. My family. My salvation. And I will do anything to protect it.
I'm brutal. Crazy. Ruthless. And I won't apologize for it.
I never believed I would love anything as much as being SAA and taking the Devil's Ride. Becoming a Reaper and patching in with the RBMC were the best decisions I ever made.
Until I met Nylah.
The feisty nurse owns my black soul. She's become the most critical person in my world.
My life in the club is too dangerous for her, but I won't give her up.
She's an obsession. An addiction. The light to my darkness. A liability.
When my past surfaces, along with all the bad things I've done in the name of vengeance, I know I have to let her go.
It's the only way to keep her safe.
Losing Nylah forces the monster within to break free and lash out. Secrets. Lies. Betrayal. It's the shocking truth that unleashes the beast I've tried so hard to contain.
The twisted devil inside is done with following the rules.
My Reaper is willing to risk everything, even a deal with the devil, to save Nylah.
And there isn't any place where my enemies will be able to hide.


Hell Rider is part of the Royal Bastards MC Tonopah, NV world. This box set contains the first two books in Rael's story. This is a dark romance with mature content, human trafficking, kidnapping, torture, revenge, biker slang, and violence with a paranormal REAPER twist. Rael is a slightly unhinged, overprotective SGT at Arms who falls hard for the sweet, feisty nurse who sees beyond his bloodied armor and guides him toward redemption.
