#NewRelease - Best Match by @PippaGreen12

   

Title: Best Match (Arizona Rattlesnakes Book 3)
Author: Pippa Green
Genre: Sports Romance
Editor: Kerry Genova
Publication Date: Aug. 30^th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

From the outside looking in, my life is perfect. I’ve made it all the way from Sweden to the USA to be a star player for the Arizona Rattlesnakes NHL team and we’re having our best season ever. The problem is… I can’t take the heat. Literally. I need to get out of the desert as fast as possible.

 

I have a plan and it’s simple: remain detached from my life, as Tucson is just a pit stop, and when we win the Cup, I’ll get myself traded to any other team in a colder climate. My teammates think I’m a grumpy bastard but that’s just my way of keeping them at arm’s length, so I don’t miss them too much when I bolt.

 

I’ve hit another snag in the form of my new next-door neighbor. Elizabeth’s a ray of jävlasunshine—and we know how I feel about the sun—and she can’t seem to take the hint that I want her gone. My stand-offish nature doesn’t seem to stop her from baking me muffins, doing my yard work, and generally driving me insane with her curves as she prances around in yoga outfits and lounges in her bikini by the pool.

 

I need to resist, but every minute I spend with Elizabeth and her three-legged dog makes it harder and harder to remember why I can’t just let myself go and enjoy her warmth. She may be the best thing that’s ever happened to a grumpy bastard like me, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to let the sexy, taco-loving temptress lure me into staying in Helvete, or Hell.

 

If I stick to my plan I’ll be happy…right? But what if I’m wrong?

 

Best Match is the third book in the new Arizona Rattlesnakes series, a spinoff from Pippa Green's successful Minnesota Raiders series. It can be enjoyed as a standalone novel.

#NewRelease - Urgent by @EmberDante

  

Title: Urgent: An ABCs of Love Novel
Author: Ember Dante
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Cover Designer: Indie Sage
Publication Date: August 25^th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

Claire Rossi returned to Chicago determined to maintain her independence. Studying in London for two years opened Claire’s eyes to a world outside the sheltered existence she lived under her overprotective father’s control.

 

Armed with a college degree and a job at a prestigious public relations firm, Claire returned to Chicago ready for a future filled with possibilities. She soon set her sights on the gorgeous and mysterious manager of the hottest nightclub in town.

 

A man who also happened to work for her father.

 

Special Agent Matt Cavalli had successfully infiltrated the notorious Rossi crime family. After four years undercover as John Peretti, he was one of the most trusted men in the organization. But he never expected his assignment would include the boss’s daughter.

 

Bound by his mission, Matt had no choice but to follow orders. Even though he believed Claire was ignorant of her father’s nefarious activities, she was a means to an end, one that would, unfortunately, become collateral damage. She would never be more than a pawn in a dangerous game of chess.

 

Or so he thought.

 

When an unexpected enemy emerges, Matt must decide between loyalty and the woman he loves.

John opened his eyes and grabbed my shoulders at the same time. Our gazes locked, and in that moment, I knew we were either about to take a major step forward, or he was going to send me on my way.

I was really, really hoping for the former.

That fear disintegrated when John’s mouth crashed into mine. His aggression surprised me, but I opened for him, letting his tongue in to explore. We exchanged lush licks as our bodies moved in harmony. My arms twisted around his neck. His folded around my waist. Our mouths devoured each other, desperate for connection. Seeking unity.

Damn, the man could kiss.

We broke apart, breathless. Heavy pants filled the air between us.

“Claire…”

I rested a finger over his lips. “No one has to know. We’re both consenting adults. We can do whatever we want.”

“You have no idea what I want,” he groaned.

I didn’t believe that at all. If he felt even a fraction of what I did after that kiss, I knew exactly what he wanted. That kiss left me desperate for more, and I was determined to get it. Sooner rather than later if I had my way.

#NewRelease - Tempted by @renee_harless

  

Title: Tempted: An ABCs of Love Novel
Author: Renee Harless
Genre: NA Contemporary Romance
Cover Designer: Indie Sage
Publication Date: August 18^th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

From USA Today bestselling author Renee Harless comes a forbidden, age-gap, love story with a sexy musician and a woman that knows what she wants.

 

There are many things in life I’d rather forget. But nothing tops walking in on my teenage crush and temporary neighbor in the great outdoors while he showered.

 

It wasn’t as if I did it on purpose, but he thought I had.

 

Asher Blake was the head of my favorite band and the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. But to him, I was nothing more than his friend’s daughter.

 

Or maybe I was wrong.

 

I wasn’t exactly that awkward doting girl anymore. I was older and no longer off limits. We were two consenting adults. And no one would know what we did behind those cabin walls.

 

Once our time was up, we could go our separate ways.

 

Our lives were complicated enough and we didn’t need to add our age difference into the mix.

 

We threw caution to the wind and gave into temptation, never realizing that it was more than just our secrets that we needed to protect – it was our hearts too.

 

**Tempted is a complete stand-alone in the ABCs of Love series where each author delivers a brand-new story for you to rediscover your ABCs.

Renee Harless, her husband, and children live in Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. She studied Communication, specifically Public Relations, at Radford University.

After marrying the man of her dreams and moving from her hometown she sought out a different artistic outlet – writing.

 

To say that Renee is a romance addict would be an understatement. When she isn’t chasing her kids around the house, working her day job, or writing, she jumps head first into a romance novel.

#NewRelease - Jerk by @DarylBanner

 

Title: Jerk: An ABCs of Love Novel
Author: Daryl Banner
Genre: MM Romance, Second Chance Romance
Cover Designer: Indie Sage
Model: Carlus Tyler Reed
Photographer: Eric David Battershell
Publisher: Frozenfyre Publishing
Publication Date: June 9^th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

You don't want a nice guy.

Just admit it.

 

The real guy you want to sweep you off your feet isn’t wearing a cardigan. He won’t remember your anniversaries or bring you hot chocolate on a cold night.

 

The guy you want is rough, rude, and hotter than sin.

 

A total jerk.

 

Still, inexplicably, you’re madly in love with him. Why? Is the sex really that good? Why don’t you want the nice guy? The one you can actually take home to Mom and Dad? The one who smiles with his eyes, who will laugh at your jokes — even the bad ones? The one who will hold you after a hard day, who will run to your side even if it’s inconvenient, who will cherish and worship you like something priceless and precious?

 

It’s inevitable that guys like me lose hope in ever finding love. Capturing your heart isn’t easy when the world is full of countless jerks you’re so willing to give it to. What’s a nice guy to do when he’s playing a game you won’t let him win?

 

To tell my story properly, we have to start at the end.

As in: the end of the Mr. Nice Guy I used to be.

“Hey, Romeo.” He smiles, showing the tiniest dimples at the corners of his soft, velvety lips—or at least I imagine they’re velvety, from all the fantasies I’ve had about kissing them. “Your membership is about to expire in a few days, and I just wanted to check if—”

 

“Sure, I’ll renew.”

 

“Really? Awesome.” He goes to the computer and starts typing, then frowns. “Wish they’d update the system here. Last gym I worked at, all of this would be online or automated and I wouldn’t have to bug you.”

 

I prop my elbows on the counter. “Struggles of a privately-owned gym, I guess?”

 

“You got it.”

 

My gaze dances down from his pretty, deep brown eyes to his tight polo shirt, the gym logo printed on it, right next to his shiny nametag: Danny Chen.

 

Danny is a nice guy. A real one. The exact kind I’d swipe right on—even if I knew there was no chance of him swiping right back. A guy I’d happily take on a date, hang out with for hours, laugh at each other’s jokes, and cuddle with while watching a movie neither of us are really paying attention to, our hearts too distracted as they drum with anticipation.

 

He’s the kind of nice guy where your happiest days aren’t even sexual. They’re emotional, sweet, and meaningful. They’re the mug of hot cocoa by a fire, and the blanket he thoughtfully wraps you in. They’re holding each other in a cushy old armchair that smells like every holiday season, me stroking his arm thoughtfully while telling him about my day. They’re us at a rescue shelter, picking out which sweet puppy to take home, and choosing what we’ll name him or her.

 

He’s the guy who makes it easy to believe in a happy-ever-after.

 

I can imagine it all with Danny, as if our life is a beautiful memory I haven’t made yet.

 

“You’re all set,” he announces with another breath-stealing smile. “Membership renewed.”

 

And despite all my doubts, I might even have the courage to ask Danny on a date, if it weren’t for one stinging, unfortunate setback...
