The only person who doesn’t run for cover when I walk into a room is my new chief of sales, Harrison Ducker. He’s outspoken, snarky, and a total pain. I’d fire him in a heartbeat - if I had one - if he didn’t have an ironclad contract thanks to my father’s meddling ways. I can’t stand the sight...

  SAVAGE Park Avenue Kings - Book One by Ella Frank & Brooke Blaine Release Date: January 24, 2025 Review This was damn good! Intrigue, mystery, suspense, crimefighting, uber-wealthy, hidden world…seriously it had everything. Brooke and Ella do it again! Lachlan is an amazing character. Super smart, very wealthy and a little rebellious & reckless. Love him. It makes him super intriguing and attractive. He’s the bad boy we all fall so hard for. And we are all Cooper (okay me, maybe not you). Well-meaning, a little naive, but on a mission to do good making him a little reckless himself. And that boy loves a sexy superhero. Totally can’t get enough of them and I would totally read multiple books about this crimefighting, slightly kinky couple. But I’m equally excited to learn more about this fascinating group of men.

  FINN  Ashley James Release Date: March 6  Meet Ashley James: Ashley James is a romance author who enjoys writing (and reading) LGBTQIA+ books. She is from Washington State—and no, not Seattle—and currently resides in South Carolina with her two kids and hairless kitties, Goose, Maverick, and Houston. Ashley is introverted and slightly (okay, majorly) awkward. She refuses to make this section sound like a tacky dating app profile, so she won't be telling you how much she enjoys music, how she thoroughly enjoys dancing and singing in her kitchen, despite not being able to carry a tune, and she won't be telling you about her love of toxic and broken fictional men.

  MAD FOR MADISON The Boys of Hudson Burrow - Book Four by Hayden Hall Release Date: January 23, 2025 Review Ah, my heart. These two may have won out for my favourite of the series.  Such a sweet, touching, and compassionate story. Our favourite bartender is a pretty amazing single dad to a great little girl who is going to wonders for space and dinosaurs. Bradley is sweet and loyal and crushing on the enigma of man who lives across the street from the bar, Madison. Madison is a complicated guy, with a tender heart and a fear of not being worthy. He’s been hiding himself from pretty much everyone, but when Bradley works his way past the walls, a bright future is in reach.  Which can be a scary thing. I love the way they balance each other, and the thought and care they take with one another. And the way they come into themselves. But also grandmas for the win!! Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Madison Masters is everything I want to be. He’s confident, good-lo...
