My dad and I have been estranged for years, but as his only living relative, it's no surprise I inherit his massive cattle ranch when he dies. Something that is a surprise? The stipulation in his will that requires me to live on the ranch and actively manage it for a year before I can access my inheritance money. I haven't stepped foot in Hartsville, Texas, population one thousand, since my parents split when I was six. Now a city girl through and through, I never imagined having to move back to cowboy country. But I need the money to invest in my company, and a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. There's just one giant roadblock to my plan: the ranch's foreman, grumpy cowboy Cash Rivers. I don't care how good he looks in his Wranglers and chaps. He's rude, he's growly, and he wants me gone. I'd fire him in a heartbeat, but I need this cowboy to teach me the ropes of running a ranch. We're enemies from the get-go. But it turns out Cash is really good at this ranch thing. He's got strong hands, an intelligent mind, and let's just say everything really is bigger in Texas. Working alongside him leads to conversations beneath the stars. Throw in some cheek-to-cheek dancing at the local dive bar, and it all feels so right that I start to fall in love with life on the ranch. And maybe with him, too. But my stay in Hartsville is only temporary. And you know what they say about cowboys: they may break horses, but they also break hearts. If only Cash hadn't already lassoed mine… Butting heads leads to knocking boots in this wildly sexy enemies-to-lovers, grumpy/sunshine, small-town cowboy romance by Jessica Peterson. Cash is the first standalone book in the steamy interconnected Lucky River Ranch series.

Sparks fly in this hilarious grumpy/grumpy romance, packed with Dade’s signature body positivity and a delicious amount of spice. Karl and Molly were never together. There was a time, right after high school, where it seemed like they might finally cross the line from friends to lovers…but instead, a foolish misunderstanding meant they never spoke again. Molly went to LA and got married. Karl stayed in Harlot’s Bay and bought a bakery. The only connection the pair has shared over the years is painfully one-sided: Now divorced, Molly narrates monster romance audiobooks, and Karl is an ever-diligent listener, clinging to his only piece of the one that got away. Still, Molly hasn’t totally left Harlot’s Bay behind. When she hears that Karl’s obituary has run in the local paper, unexpected grief prompts her to hop on the next flight to Maryland…where she finds Karl very much alive, the victim of nothing but an accidental obituary. As the pair reunite, they finally hash out their missed connection. True, Molly isn’t quite ready to trust again, but Karl is determined to prove himself worthy of her faith and devotion. And as her remaining time in Harlot’s Bay ticks down, Molly, the habitual cynic, just might find that Karl, the cranky town curmudgeon, is impossible to leave behind a second time.

House of Blight

It was supposed to be a simple assignment: stake out the golden boy hockey player Cole “Mac” Mackenzie as he exited the arena after a Los Angeles Blades game. Follow him. Get dirt on his personal life—something salacious to please the money-hungry gossip rag I worked for. But I missed the moment Mac left the building. Or so I thought… Twenty minutes later, I saw actual Mac exit after the media left. Apparently, he’d used a decoy to throw off the press—waiting until everyone left to make his getaway in private. I started following the real Mac, and got more than I bargained for. He led me to a mystery building tucked away in the middle of the suburbs. Turned out, he was going to… a private club. A club that wasn’t for the faint of heart—as I’d soon find out after sneaking in. I wasn’t expecting to connect with Mac inside. Nor did I anticipate him to invite me back as his personal guest. What started as a simple assignment turned into something much more—my biggest fantasy I never knew I had. This wasn’t about the tabloid story anymore. I lied to my boss, told him there was nothing to see. Meanwhile, I kept returning to the club. I was addicted to unraveling the mysteries of Mac’s world. Addicted to the man who lit a fire inside me. But—with my own secret—it was only a matter of time before I got burned.

At least he's alive, not that he appreciates it. Now it's a new school year, but some things never change. Like the sizzling tension between Prescott and me every time we're in the same room. But the more we fight, the more I want to shut him up. With my mouth. Then he sees me on a date with someone else, and something in him snaps.

I know exactly who he is, but the infamous Holden Bailey has no idea who I am, or my connection to the team. I prefer it that way. I give in to one dance with Holden and send him home alone. He can have any woman he wants, but for some reason, he wants me. His pursuit is relentless. He wrote the playbook on being a player, though. Giving in could cost me my heart. Holden: I thought getting traded to the Blaze was life changing, but it's nothing compared to meeting Parker Monroe. From the moment she bumps into me on the crowded dance floor, I can't tear my eyes away. She's gorgeous, intelligent, and definitely not interested. At least not in the player the media portrays me to be. I need to convince her that with her, I'm authentic, and what we have is the real thing. Game on. When the truth gets twisted, it looks like I'm playing her. But she has it all wrong. The way I feel about Parker is beyond the play. She's my end game.

Rugged &amp; At-Risk

Ashton Grey’s restaurant, Sweet Home, is in trouble. Months of empty tables have left her and her partners near bankruptcy, and her father’s prediction of her failure as a chef seems imminent. But a chance encounter could provide Ashton with the publicity she needs to save her restaurant—if the fiery chef is willing to compete on a reality cooking show. But in order to win, she needs to stay focused. No problem … until she meets the head judge. Celebrity chef Ty Cates is ready to get away from the camera and back to the kitchen where he belongs. Performing as head judge on a reality show is just one more commitment he’d like to get out of, especially after he meets Ashton. Head judges dating contestants is about as taboo as putting ketchup on filet mignon, but from the moment they meet, there’s a simmering heat between them that neither can ignore. As the competition heats up, they rely on sneaking around, stealing amazing night after amazing night together when the cameras aren’t rolling. When both realize what’s starting to feel like love could easily be a recipe for disaster, Ashton and Ty need to make a choice—get out of the kitchen or turn up the heat.

***Devoted & Deserted is an updated version of The Devoted Groom: Quinn Family Romance. The book has been redesigned for continuity with covers and titles for the Quinn Family.*** A grieving football player. A vivacious speech pathologist. An unexpected love that sparks danger from the past. After Ryder Quinn’s wife died, his four-year-old son stopped speaking. Desperate for a solution, the handsome cornerback hires Bree Stevens, a spunky speech pathologist, to be his son’s nanny and therapist. Bree moves in and breathes new life into their home. Ryder’s son Tate instantly falls in love with her, and his dad isn’t far behind. As his attraction to Bree grows, Ryder wonders if he should invite her to make her stay permanent. Bree Stevens quickly falls for the devoted father and his adorable boy. Shuffled in and out of foster care since childhood, the thing that Bree has most longed for is love and a family of her own. Bree worries that the growing affection between her and Ryder is too good to be true. And if it is true, can she risk opening her heart—and baggage from her past—to him? Just as Bree and Ryder decide to take a chance on each other, Bree’s twisted past catches up with her and she has to choose—selfishly hold on to the love that she’s found, or leave and keep Ryder and Tate safe? Fans of Christy Barritt, Lisa Phillips, Jessie Gussman, and Colleen Hoover will love Cami Checketts’s clean romantic suspense with a side of comedy.

Devoted &amp; Deserted

Off-limits. That's what Jude is to me. My older brother doesn't trust me with his player of a best friend, which is totally fine, because I'm not interested. As Jude and I reluctantly become friends, I start to see that there's more to him than others notice. But I still won't go there, not when I have a crush on someone else. But Jude's the perfect person to help show me the ropes when it comes to the opposite sex, besides it's not like he'll get attached to me. Except he does. And the thing about broken boys? They're way too easy to fall for.
