Ruby Foxx is the only girl I’ve ever wanted… and she’s completely off-limits.

Her brother is my teammate and best friend. They’re my family. We grew up across the hall, sharing a secret connection I’ve tried hard to forget.

But I never crossed the line—not then, and not when we came to Riverside U—I’ve kept my distance.

Until her dorm floods, and she moves into the hockey house. Now, there’s nowhere to hide. Ruby’s always around, and my feelings are hitting harder than a body check on the ice.

Then she confesses she’s never been with a man… and asks me to change that.

I can’t just take what she’s offering—I need to make it special—something she’ll never regret.

I promise to take my time and teach her, but I’m the one getting schooled because I’m falling fast.

The guilt is like a slap shot, knowing I’m betraying my best friend—my family—by falling in love with her.

I know I should skate away, but after tasting happiness with Ruby, I can’t let her go.

What if, by holding on, I lose everything—on and off the ice?

AUTHOR BIO

I’m just a true southern girl, reading and writing books, asking you to love me! My books are extra steamy, contemporary romances, all with HEAs and no cliffhangers! They’re short, smutty, and tastefully trashy.

If you love over-protective, sexy, alpha book boyfriends who make you swoon and reach for your favorite… bookmark, then you’ve come to the right place.

When I’m not writing books or doing bookish things, I’m probably listening to music, designing smutty stickers, adding to my spectacular band t-shirt collection, or learning how to do something new like arm-knitting because I’m neurodivergent AF! And yes, I really do know how to knit with my arms.

Cover Reveal - The Purest Fake by Jacob Chance

Title: The Purest Fake

Series: Silverbacks Football #2

Author: Jacob Chance

Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance

Tropes: Football Playing Hero/Fake Relationship

Virgin Hero/Sassy Heroine/Only One Bed

Cover Design: Sybil Wilson, Popkitty Design

Release Date: December 5, 2024

BLURB

Taking a break from dating seems like the ultimate plan—just me, my wrestling podcast, and zero romantic drama. Then I meet Cooper Grind, the tight end for the Silverbacks. He’s adorkable, hilarious, and completely inexperienced when it comes to love. And I mean in every way.

So when he proposes a wild scheme—a pretend relationship to keep the female attention at bay—I can’t help but agree.

As we dive into our new “couple” status, I’m swept up in the exciting world of professional football. Although our dates are fake, Cooper makes an adventure out of every moment we spend together. For an inexperienced guy, he’s surprisingly convincing in his boyfriend role.

When stolen glances and playful banter spark something deeper, I realize I just might be in over my head. Because the more we fake it, the more real it starts to feel.

Despite facing my best defensive efforts, this superstar rookie is smashing through my reservations with alarming precision.

And now our charade is turning into something I never expected—the purest fake.

Release Blitz - The Rivals of Copper County by May Archer

Title: The Rivals of Copper County

Series: The Copper County Series #2

Author: May Archer

Genre: Gay Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Small Town/Second Chance

Enemies to Lovers/Demi-Sexual Rep

Childhood Best Friends/Single Dad

Release Date: November 19, 2024

BLURB

My childhood friend. My biggest rival. The only man I’ve ever wanted.

If there were a prize for the most contented man in Copper County, I’d win it every time. I’ve got my business. My son. My family. My friends… and no romantic prospects, sure, but only because I don’t need any. My life’s great as it is. Seriously. Could not be better. I’m practically bleeding serenity over here.

At least until Jasper Wrigley shows up in Copper County after twenty years–as my son’s temporary hockey coach, no less, though the man could barely lace up his skates back in the day–and throws my carefully ordered life into chaos.

Once upon a time, magnetic, confident Jasper was my best friend and greatest rival, and his summer visits to town were the best part of my year. Our competitions were fierce. Our dares were thrilling. We talked about everything under the sun, and he made me believe in the possibility of a bright, hazy future somewhere just out of reach.

But then he left, and I grew up. Now the last thing I need is Jasper back in my space, provoking me, challenging me, and making me question… freaking everything.

Like whether my life’s as perfect as I claim.

Like whether I’m as straight as I think.

Like whether there might be something better than “contentment” out there for me if I’m brave enough to look for it.

And whether the man who was always my greatest rival… might just be the love of my life.

EXCERPT

As for the rest, desolation rips through me when I push the door open and walk through it. Every step I take is like walking on a bed of glowing red coals.

Saverio stands on the gallery, talking to Dante. His smile slips when he sees me.

“What’s wrong?” he asks, wrapping an arm around my waist.

I plaster a smile on my face. “Nothing.”

The way his eyes tighten in the corners says he doesn’t believe me, but he doesn’t push the issue.

I stand like a statue at his side while people file past in a steady row to prematurely congratulate us and to make mindless conversation.

A short while later, Luigi asks the DJ to kill the music. He makes an announcement, but everything is like white noise in my ears.

Saverio takes my hand and pushes a ring with a huge oval diamond over my finger. I can’t stop staring at the monstrosity that shines under the lights, the huge stone weighing down my hand. Saverio holds my gaze as he lifts my fingers to his lips and kisses the ring, something dark and deviant sparking in those eyes that resemble the color of an iced-over lake. Clapping follows and then cheers.

Lowering his head, he claims my lips in a kiss that lasts too long to be appropriate for the occasion. This time, wolf whistling sounds.

It all happens in a blur. The one moment I’m Anya Brennan, and in the next, I’m to become Ms. De Luca.

“Soon,” Saverio whispers in my ear, sealing that frightening promise with a tender kiss on my neck.

Release Blitz - The Reality Duet by Halcie Dawn

The Reality Duet

Tropes: Soul Mates/Second Chance/Missing Sister

Tragic Past/Opposite Sides of the Track/Protector

Forbidden Love/First Love

Release Date: November 18, 2024

ESCAPING OUR REALITY

Ella

I want to find my sister. Actually, I need to find my sister. I can’t count on my parents to do it. They’re too busy jet-setting around the world on useless vacations and bed-hopping from one tryst to the other. So it’s up to me. I mean, the police have no new leads—maybe I can do what they can’t do.

But instead of finding her, I find him.

Homeless, cynical, commanding, and without a doubt, the best-looking guy I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

I’m drawn to him. Instantly and permanently. He sees me. The real me. The me that I show so few people.

There’s just one problem. Well, two problems, really. One, he doesn’t think he’s worthy. Of anything. And two, he doesn’t want me looking for my sister.

Crutch

I’m from the wrong side of the tracks. Hell, my side of town is so bad it doesn’t even have tracks. I come from addicts, thieves, and liars.

And her…

Well, she has enough money to solve world hunger and still wipe her hands on a gold-trimmed handkerchief when she’s done.

Girls like her throw pity at guys like me. That’s why I don’t let anyone see the real me. Find the ones who know nothing about you or where you’re from, have a little fun, and then walk away. That’s my modus operandi. And yes, I do know what that means. Being poor doesn’t mean I’m stupid.

I can’t let her go. And I know I should. I mean, she’s still in high school. But… I can’t walk away.

I might not have a choice, though. Especially if she doesn’t stop looking for her sister.

FINDING OUR REALITY

Ella

I’m back. Little did I know he’s back too. Apparently, I’m the only one who didn’t know.

Not only is he back in town, but he’s working my sister’s case. Declaring he’ll do anything to solve it. So why did he try to stop me all those years ago?

What the hell happened to him? I’ll tell you what happened. He ruined my life. He walked away and wrecked me. Made me turn into someone I hated. Made me turn to someone I hated. And while I was dragging myself through agony, he apparently was screwing half the women in Alabama.

I’ll never forgive him. And if he thinks he’s going to solve my sister’s case all by himself, he’s got another thing coming.

Because I’m the best there is.

Crutch

She’s back. And it’s pretty clear to see that everyone kept my secrets. They didn’t tell her about me.

Leaving her was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. But she deserved more. I was nothing. A homeless, wayward mess of a guy. She wanted to save me, but I couldn’t let her derail her future. Not for me… because I was a nobody.

And I guess I made the right decision—because it sure didn’t take her long to turn to another. To turn back to the kind of life she claimed to despise.

And now, she wants to be a part of this investigation. Like I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. If she thinks she’s going to solve her sister’s case all by herself, she’s got another thing coming.

Because I’m the best there is.
