(Rocky Mountain Romances, Book 2) Romance Date Published: 12.13.2022 Publisher: Dragonbooks Publishing House
Did someone say dance like no one is watching? Guess that’s the only way Tyler CAN dance now. Slip into the pages of the fun and feisty second book in the Rocky Mountain Romances series. Tyler Carter has everything she dreams of—she’s the starring ballerina in a Cirque-du-Soleil type show, a splashy Las Vegas lifestyle, and there’s nothing tying her down. Until she injures her knee, that is. Tyler flees to her family in the little mountain town of Independence Junction, Colorado, and pretends she'll get better, until forced to realize the truth. And forced to confront her past when she smacks right into Patrick West, the architect restoring the historic Wilkinson house. Their attraction quickly rekindles because of a one-night tryst they had the summer before—one neither of them wants to admit to! But something else gets rekindled. A stalker sets their sights on Tyler and leaves shocking clues indicating they know exactly who Tyler is, and that they want her dead. Will Patrick, Tyler’s brother, and a retired police dog be able to keep Tyler safe? The fascinating and quirky citizens of Independence Junction come back in Book 2 of The Rocky Mountain Romances series to show how small-town relationships can bring out the best and worst in people. Heart-warming with a splash of Vegas glamour, Book 2 successfully combines a new-and-old mix of family and townsfolk in a pressure-cooker plot that never lets up on chuckles, suspense, and romance.
Excerpt
Panting, Tyler braced herself, waiting to catch her breath. She hadn’t known working out with a punching bag would be so strenuous. And she was used to quite a bit from her own training as a dancer. Slowly, she lowered her arms. She could barely lift them. As she turned, her eyes fell on someone. An image of muscular arms around her waist and intertwined legs flashed before her inner eye. Heat shot through her body. Oh great. She was suddenly aware of scattered strands of hair that had come loose from her braid sticking to her sweaty face.

Nichole loved her small-town life and never thought about leaving home. Now she’s an LA sorority girl at a college that rich kids cheat to get into.
It’s been all fun and games, but Nicole is bored with college life and the boys that come with it. Valentine’s Day is approaching and the one thing she wants is to lose her V-card on V-Day.
Older guys do it better. At least that’s what her best friend Dericka says.
With that in mind, Nichole sets her sights on seducing Mr. Valentine’s Day himself, chocolatier Gredin McEwen. And with Dericka’s help, she just might get him.
Hoes before bros have always been their motto.
What can possibly get in the way of that?
Suckers
Gredin doesn’t have time for games or relationships. He’s about to launch a new company with a nonexistent signature dessert. The last thing he needs is to be distracted by her: a college girl with a tempting offer he should refuse.
But he still wants to have his cake and eat it too.
His only rule: one and done. A quick lay for Valentine’s Day. Nothing less and definitely nothing more.
He has no idea just how much more Nicole Adams will be.
Will she be worth breaking the rule?
If you like age-gap, fun romances, then you’ll love the misadventures of this pair.

The third time, he regretted what he’d said the day before, and I once again was provoked by his hazel eyes, wicked smile, and devil-may-care attitude. Then again, his ripped body being photographed by my best friend didn’t hurt either. Brendan wrote down his private line on a pastry box. I sent him a memento of our first date—a blueberry pie—almost as soon as it was over. He hooked me. It helped his idea of a perfect second date involved taking me to a baseball game. I let him in—all the way in, took him deep into my heart. I didn’t have any choice. Despite the one hard and fast rule I laid out—never lie to me—I lied to myself. I told Brendan my heart wouldn’t crumble if he didn’t love me. Would I have let myself fall if I knew the secrets he was keeping? I’ll never know. I do know you love someone until you can’t. That’s when you set them free. Other Titles in the Series About the Author

HOLT Wren opened the door to reveal a massive Husky with the most piercing blue eyes standing guard in front of her. The dog’s gaze went from Lawson to me and back again. Wren’s head jerked in my direction. “What are you doing here?” Lawson winced. “Sorry. He overheard the call. There was no stopping him.” My eyes traced the trails that tears had left on Wren’s cheeks. Some ended on her chin, while others streaked down her neck. Marks that I had put there. “I just wanted to make sure you were okay.” Wren stared at me for the count of three. “I’m fine. Really.” Lawson cleared his throat. “Can you show me where you found the shoe print?” She nodded, motioning around the house. “I was in the hall with Shadow. I had just hung up with Grae and heard what I thought was a twig snap. Shadow growled, which she doesn’t usually do unless she’s warning me that she heard something.” “Did you hear anything other than the twig snapping? Voices? Footsteps?” Lawson asked. Wren shook her head. “Nothing…” Her voice trailed off in a way that had me picking up my pace. “What is it?” About Catherine Cowles

But the Morrigan’s under new ownership. And while Blake doesn’t remember handsome, arrogant Declan MacKenna from their ill-fated encounter ten years ago, Declan remembers him. And he wants payback. Declan offers Blake a humiliating, degrading deal he has no choice but to take even though it's all kinds of wrong. While Blake may be an alpha werewolf, so is Declan—and he out-alphas Blake at every turn. Blake shouldn’t enjoy what Declan does to him. He shouldn’t crave things no alpha should ever accept. Declan’s turned him into someone he doesn’t recognize: helpless, needy, and out of control. Declan wants to keep hating Blake, but he can't. Blake wants to trust Declan, but that’s impossible. When magical and mundane attacks threaten them both, Blake has nowhere to turn. Will Declan realize his feelings run deeper than desire in time to save them both? If not, they could lose everything…even their lives. The Alpha’s Gamble is part of the Mismatched Mates series, but it can be read as a standalone. Contains blackmail, knotting, and intrigue, plus a side dish of biting. This series does not contain mpreg. About the Author
I’m an editor by day and a romance writer by night, at least on a good day. I’m more of a procrastinator by day and despairing eater of chocolate by night when inspiration doesn’t flow and my day-job clients are driving me to insanity. Go ahead and guess which of these is more common. My steady childhood diet of pulp science fiction, classic tales of adventure, and romance novels surreptitiously borrowed from my grandmother eventually led me to writing; I picked up my first M/M romance a few years ago and I’ve been enjoying the genre as a reader and an author ever since.

"Make A Wish will curl your toes, tickle your funny bone, and leave you with the best warm and fuzzy feelings."–Kylie Scott, New York Times bestselling author Make A Wish, an all-new second chance, single dad contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting, is now available! With her signature charm and sense of humor, bestselling author Helena Hunting creates a novel about love, family, and second chances in Make a Wish. Ever have a defining life moment you wish you could do over? Harley Spark has one. The time she almost kissed the widowed father of the toddler she nannied for. It was so bad they moved across the state and she never saw them again. Fast forward seven years and she’s totally over it. At least she thinks she is. Until Gavin Rhodes and his adorable now nine-year-old daughter, Peyton, reappear at a princess-themed birthday party hosted by Spark House, Harley’s family’s event hotel. Despite trying to avoid the awkwardness of the situation, she can’t help but notice how unbearably sexy he looks in a tutu. Add to that a spontaneous hives breakout, and it’s clear she’s not even remotely over the mortification of her egregious error all those years ago. Except Gavin seems oblivious to her inner turmoil. So much so that he suggests they get together for lunch. For Peyton’s sake, of course. It’s the perfect opportunity to heal old wounds. Or it could just reopen them. This is one of those times Harley wishes she could see the future… Amazon Worldwide: https://geni.us/MakeAWishZon Apple Books: https://apple.co/3yGYlqY Nook: https://geni.us/MakeaWishNook Kobo: https://geni.us/MakeAWishKobo Google Play: https://geni.us/MakeaWishGP Paperback Amazon: bit.ly/3Huuzda Barnes and Noble: bit.ly/3wLroYB Audio: Narrated by Jason Clarke and Stella Bloom Amazon: bit.ly/3wrUig1 Barnes and Noble: bit.ly/3R5fAcH Keep reading for a look inside MAKE A WISH! “Do you know where Gavin is taking you for dinner?” “Nope, he just said wear something nice,” I reply. “Did you pick up some sexy lingerie to wear under your dress?” “I guess it depends on whose version of sexy we’re talking about.” Avery’s version of sexy lingerie is upgrading from a sports bra to one with padding and black bikini briefs. London, on the other hand loves,[HH1] all things lace and satin and delicate. I’m somewhere between the two. London stops messing with my eyebrows and gives me a stern look. “Please tell me you bought new underwear for this date.” “Who says he’s going to see my underwear at the end of the night?” I challenge. “Oh please.” London props a fist on her hip. “Isn’t Peyton sleeping over at her grandparents’ place?” “As far as I know, yes.” “So he’ll be able to come back to your place and stay the night if he wants,” London says. “Do you think I should invite him back to my place?” I glance between my sisters. “Why wouldn’t you?” Avery rubs her belly. “It’s our first date.” Now it’s Avery’s turn to give me a look. “You’ve been seeing him on a weekly basis since July. It’s October[CD2] [HH3] .” “Because of Peyton.” “Uh, we all know that’s bullshit.” Avery makes a circle motion and points at me. “I was in a relationship for most of the time I was spending with them,” I argue. Avery rolls her eyes. “Chad was a nice guy, but he was a fun-for-now boyfriend, not a get-serious boyfriend. And he was way too into fantasy sports. No one should be in that many fantasy leagues. It’s not normal, and that’s coming from a self-professed sports junkie.” “Still, don’t you think I should wait a while before jumping into bed with Gavin?” I bring my fingers to my lips then drop them to my lap so I don’t ruin my gloss or my nails. “It’s whatever feels right,” London says. “And you want to make sure that you’re actually into Gavin on his own, rather than the Gavin-and-Peyton package.” “How is she going to figure that out unless she gets naked with him?” Avery argues. “Sex complicates things. You know that better than anyone,” London says pointedly. She’s referencing the way Avery and Declan nearly imploded back when they crossed the line from best friends to best friends with a lot of benefits. “My situation with Declan is not even remotely the same as what’s going on with Harley and Gavin. Declan had major commitment issues, and I made a stupid mistake. Now we’re super happy and totally in love and having a baby.” Avery turns back to me. “I think you need to do whatever is right for you. It’s up to you whether you let him see your underpants.” London sighs and shakes her head, then her eyes go wide, and she takes me by the shoulders. “Please tell me your underwear are not cotton.” “There’s nothing wrong with cotton underwear. They breathe,” Avery says defensively. “There’s nothing wrong with them in the general sense, but for a date and potentially the first underpants sighting, cotton is a no-no.” “They’re not cotton,” I assure her. She arches a brow and I sigh. “They’re satin with a lace waistband and a floral print.” “Okay. As long as they don’t have a cartoon pattern on them, we’re good,” London says with relief. My phone buzzes on the vanity, Gavin’s name flashing across the screen. I nab the device and check the message. He’s just pulled into Spark House. “He’s here. I’m so nervous. Why am I so nervous?” “Because you want to get naked with him,” Avery says. “Because you like him, and you’re changing the dynamic of your relationship,” London says. “And you want to find out if he’s got the moves between the sheets.” Avery grins. She gives me a fist bump. “Just remember, you don’t need to wait five dates before you get in the sack with this one.” “But don’t feel like you need to rush into anything either.” London turns me around once to make sure my dress isn’t wonky in the back, and then they’re ushering me into the hall.
