CHRISTMAS STAYCATION, a steamy, laugh-out-loud, opposites attract, forced proximity small-town Christmas romantic comedy from New York Times Bestselling Author, Meghan Quinn, is out now!

Scroll down for an excerpt!

This holiday season is about to get messy. And someone’s sure to end up on the naughty list…

Nothing says Merry Christmas like fake fiancés, family pressure, and accidentally falling for your ex’s brother.

Nolan never met a spotlight he didn’t like. As a major league baseball player with a filthy mouth, an ego the size of the North Pole, and zero interest in behaving, he’s perfectly happy breezing into Christmas in Kringletown like the charming disaster everyone expects him to be.

Taran, on the other hand, has made an art form out of keeping the peace. She’s polished, careful, and so committed to making everyone else happy that she’s somehow agreed to a fake wedding with her ex just to keep her family’s holiday from imploding.

There’s only one problem: the ex in question is Nolan’s brother, and Nolan sees right through her. He knows Taran deserves better than pretending her way through life.

And he’d really like “better” to be him.

Now Taran is juggling family expectations, holiday chaos, and a man who is far too cocky, far too funny, and far too determined to bulldoze every wall she’s ever built.

But with Christmas closing in, secrets snowballing, and one very fake engagement threatening to blow up in spectacular fashion, this holiday season is about to get messy. And someone’s sure to end up on the naughty list.

“…a lighthearted, laugh-out-loud love story…” ~Danielle, Red Cheeks Reads

Check out Danielle’s 4.5 SMOOCHES review!

EXCERPT:

“Close enough,” I say, almost surprised that I’m pushing this. But I can’t help it—I’m curious. What could his resolutions possibly be that he wouldn’t talk about them? Compared to the things this man has said to me, resolutions feel like a walk in the park.

“Nice try,” he says and then removes my beer from my hand and takes a sip. Instead of giving it back to me, he sets it on the table, just as the countdown from ten starts on the TV.

He glances at the screen and counts down from five. “Five, four, three, two, one.” He gazes into my eyes. “Happy New Year, Taran.”

“Happy New Year,” I reply, unsure why he’s looking at me like that.

And then before I know what’s happening, his hand slides across my cheek, his body leans in, and his lips are on mine before I can take my next breath. I freeze, my mind nearly exploding at the unexpected move, and yet, when his mouth slightly opens and he continues the kiss, I don’t move.

I don’t push away.

But I also don’t kiss him back.

I just…let it happen. I let him feel his lips on mine.

NEVER BEEN TAMED, a steamy new fake-dating, opposites attract, cowgirl/city boy small-town romance from New York Times Bestselling Author, Corinne Michaels, is available now!

Scroll down for an excerpt!

I will not fall for my fake boyfriend.

Famous last words…

I will not fall for my fake boyfriend.

Famous last words.

Dr. Ares Pierce may be new in town, but it only took one encounter to know he’s trouble. Sexy. Broody. Older. A broken look in his eyes.

The kind that says he’s carrying something heavy… and I should run.

But when my cheating ex-fiancé has the audacity to ask me to be in his wedding, panic takes over. A small lie to save face spirals out of control when I claim the sexy stranger beside me is my boyfriend.

And Ares plays along.

Soon we strike a deal: we keep up the relationship to help him win patients at the struggling clinic he’s trying to save, and I get a shield from the humiliation of my ex’s happily-ever-after.

Simple. Temporary. No feelings involved.

Except nothing about Ares Pierce is simple.

The more time we spend together, the harder it is to ignore the man behind the broody exterior… The one who makes me laugh when I least expect it and reminds me what it feels like to be wanted after the worst betrayal of my life.

But our arrangement comes with an expiration date.

Ares isn’t planning to stay in Infinity Ridge. And when he’s forced to choose between the career he built and the woman he never meant to love…

I’m terrified I’ll be the one left behind.

Again.

“…a richly developed, small-town romance full of chemistry, charm…” ~Danielle, Red Cheeks Reads

Check out Danielle’s 5 SMOOCHES review!

EXCERPT:

I’m draining my beer when suddenly this short beautiful, almost pixie-like woman appears next to me after slipping through the crowd.

When she raises her hand, Debra appears. “Hey, little bits, what can I get you?”

“Two beers and a hard cider,” she yells over the crowd.

Debra heads off, and the woman looks around at the patrons in the bar. She’s stunning. Blond hair with some dark pieces throughout, brown eyes that look soft. She’s maybe all of five feet tall, but I can tell she’s full of attitude. I must’ve been staring long enough, because she turns to me and smiles.

That smile.

The one I see way too often from interested women, and thanks to this foul, pissed-off mood, I shake my head, letting her know right away there’s not a chance in hell. “Not interested.”

She laughs once and shakes her head. “Well, I wasn’t offering.”

“I know that look.”

“Clearly you don’t.” I go to drink, needing something to do so I don’t say anything else that could end with me getting hit with a bottle, but it’s empty. Great.

I place it on the bar and signal to Debra, hoping she’ll bring me a refill, since clearly bingo goes for hours.

Because I don’t have said distraction, I counter her argument. “I do know it, and I’m not interested in anything.”

She turns her body to face me, leaning against the bar. “Listen, I don’t know what look you think I was giving. I was being nice. I smiled. That’s all.”

I sigh. “If you say so.”

“I do.”

At least there’s that. We are both very clearly aware of the situation. “Good, so we’re in agreement, neither of us is interested.” Still, I don’t want to be a total dick, so I add, “You’re beautiful, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t have any interest in dating or whatever you women are looking for nowadays.”

At that, she laughs deeper, head falling back, and I swear my stomach drops. She’s more than beautiful, and if I were any other man on any other day, I would absolutely be interested.

However, it seems the second half of my speech didn’t mollify anything. She definitely wants to hit me with something.

“Look, I don’t know who you are or what you think, but I promise, I don’t date losers—and I sure as hell don’t fuck new guys who are here for a few months to play cowboy. So I take back my kind smile, and may you have the day you deserve.”

MISTLETOE ALL THE WAY, a steamy new small town, grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, opposites attract holiday romance from #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Lauren Blakely, is available now!

Scroll down for an excerpt!

She wants to make him Mr. Holiday. He wants to stay a certified Grinch…

She wants to make him Mr. Holiday. He wants to stay a certified Grinch. From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely comes a small-town spicy holiday romance about a guarded cowboy veterinarian and a Christmas-loving optimist who team up for a town holiday competition.

Dr. Noah Lennox lives by three holiday rules—avoid his hometown, cheerful people, and Christmas itself.

But when his beloved grandfather announces he’s retiring and handing the cherished sleigh-ride farm to either Noah or his slick cousin Stephen, the first rule goes out the window. Back home in Evergreen Falls, the veterinarian vows to fight for the farm that means everything to him. The problem is, the town doesn’t exactly welcome its resident Scrooge with open arms.

Except for one very charming holiday enthusiast. Eloise Langston, a sunny tourism bureau hopeful, needs a win to land her dream job—and to pay the rent. Her holly jolly plan? Turn the broody, broad-shouldered grump into a festive front-runner to help the town’s Mr. Holiday Competition draw record crowds.

Transforming a camera-shy cowboy vet into a small-town sweetheart isn’t exactly in her job description—but neither is falling for him.

Soon, Noah and Eloise find themselves tangled in twinkle lights, fake kisses, and one very real attraction. But with the farm’s future at stake, Stephen’s scheming, and Eloise’s career on the line, there’s a blizzard of reasons to put their feelings on ice.

Or will they fight to turn their holiday fling into forever under the mistletoe?

VIOLENT LITTLE THING, a suspenseful new small-town, one-night-stand, single mom romance from USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, Lani Lynn Vale, is out now!

Court has set his sights on her, and there’s nothing that she can do but surrender…

The first time Courtland Navarro saw Charleigh Lynn Kensington, she was yelling at her old boss about a yeast infection.

Court didn’t know that his heart could even beat after the loss of his late wife, but in that moment, when she was yelling about a bladder infection from hell, he realized that maybe he hadn’t died inside after all.

The second time he saw her, he was protecting her from herself.

The big—actually quite small—bad—more like a pissed-off Chihuahua—Marine thought she could handle herself. And honestly, she might have been able to. But she was five-foot-nothing, had crazy blonde hair, and looked like one hell of an easy target.

To say that they got off on the wrong foot would be an understatement.

Then, searching for something to do with his life after getting out of prison, he finds a mechanic shop for sale. So he buys it.

Little did he know that Charleigh had wanted that shop.

And now she had even more reason to hate him.

She tries her hardest to hold on to the anger, the utter dislike of all things Court Navarro. But Charleigh doesn’t stand a chance.

Court has set his sights on her, and there’s nothing that she can do but surrender.

But, maybe, that was what she wanted all along.

Someone to fight for her.

EXCERPT:

But before Eloise and I dive into business, there’s something I need to do. Something I should have done sooner, but better late than never. “Eloise, sorry I was kind of a d*ck the day I met you.”

“Kind of? You were one,” she says as we wander past booths draped in plaid and garland. Vendors call out over the crowd, selling jars of jam, embroidered stockings, and pine cone wreaths, while Rusty swings his snout left and right, inhaling all the holiday scents.

“That’s why I’m apologizing,” I say, meaning it, since I was more than a little rude that day.

Eloise stops in front of a stall selling blankets with sleigh illustrations on them. “Then say you’re sorry for being a big d*ck. Not kind of one.”

“Sorry for my big d*ck.”

She shoots me a glare.

“I’m just saying.” I shrug.

“Noah.”

“Sometimes it makes me be one.”

“Noah.”

I try again. “Sorry I was a big d*ck. Not sorry I have one.”

“You’re the worst.”

“And that’s why you want to transform me,” I say.

“You have me there. Because you are the ultimate Everest.”

Ah, hell. I can’t help myself. “That’s what she said.”

JUST SCORING WITH LOVE, a spicy new childhood-best-friends-to-lovers, forced proximity, hockey romance from #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Lauren Blakely, is coming January 13th! Check out this cover!

When she’s practice dating her hockey star best friend, but it starts to feel like the real thing…

Confession – I’ve been secretly fake dating my hockey-playing best friend.

I went to his house for dinner and walked straight into a matchmaking trap!

Miller’s teenage siblings have decided he’s been off the dating market long enough raising them, so it’s time for him to get back out there. And as his childhood best friend, they appoint me to “practice date” him.

Even though it’s walking a dangerous line, the forbidden goalie with the sexy smirk supported me when an injury shattered my own hockey dreams, so I say yes.

To writing his profile. Taking photos of him. Going on “trial” dates.

Huge mistake.

Looking at my best friend through a new lens becomes pure torture.

I can’t stop imagining his talented hands gripping my hips, his tempting mouth coasting across my skin.

Until a desperate kiss late one night at the rink changes everything.

But I’m a sports broadcaster trying to break barriers in a male-dominated industry. I don’t have time for romance, especially since I cover his team now.

So we make a new deal: a temporary arrangement to get it out of our systems.

Only the way Miller touches me after dark suggests he’s playing to win, and has been for years. And I want more.

But can I risk the one relationship I can’t live without?

EXCERPT:

“I’m so glad I pretended I didn’t know how to fix a tire,” I snap.

His brow furrows, like he can’t believe he was played. “Wait. You could’ve done it yourself?”

I wave a hand at the tire. “You think I’m going to drive all the way from Evergreen Falls to San Francisco and not know how to fend for myself? I know Krav Maga, how to fix a flat, patch a sweater, and even unclog a sink. What can you do?” I tap my boot on the snowy ground. “I’ll wait.”

“I can save your pet’s life,” he says, going toe-to-toe. “Dog. Cat. Hamster. Take your pick.”

Dammit. I walked right into that one, and I have no comeback. Dr. Dick casually leans against my truck and snaps a selfie with a thumbs-up.

“What was that for?”

“My brother,” he says, fiddling with his phone still and not even looking up. “This has to be worth at least ten points for the twin game.” Finally, he puts his phone away, then tips his hat like some smug cowboy vet. “Trish’s Treads in Evergreen Falls should be open still. I just checked, so you can get a new tire put on stat if you need it, or have it permanently patched. The snow’s going to be falling for a while.”

Ugh. He’s irritating and helpful. But he doesn’t get to tell me what to do. I can work out when to fix the tire myself. “I’ll keep that in mind for the future. I’m actually very busy—on my way to an ornament-making class tonight, and not a flat tire, or even someone like you can ruin it!”

He half turns, a smirk shifting his lips. “Of course you are. You’re a jolly.”

“Again, if the alternative is to be a grinch like you, I guess I am!”

“Your call,” he says with a smile before he slides into his truck and reaches back to pet his too-cute dog, who turns to look my way out the window.

I didn’t think this day could get any worse, but now I have a new enemy. Not the dog, of course.

But Mister Anti-Christmas.
