BLURB

From the author of the bestselling Broken Trilogy and Dark Water Series comes Extraction—the first book in Stonewall, a dangerous suspense series in the World of Mayhem, where brotherhood runs deep, and the fight for what matters most only gets harder when the heart is on the line.

Agent Paul is a soldier of many faces—
a ghost, an undercover operative, a team leader.

But those are just titles.

When a letter lands in his hands, everything changes. The past he buried resurfaces with a single revelation—his son.

Returning to the cartel world he barely escaped is a mission he can’t face alone. His brothers rally behind him, shifting their current operation to follow a trail that leads into the darkest corners of Mexico. What they encounter is far more than intel.

A pawn.
An heir.
A child.

Nicole Winter is a war correspondent with a reputation for chasing the truth. Smart. Relentless. And already three steps ahead. When their paths collide, she’s holding the one document Paul needs—and carrying secrets of her own.

As trust is tested and loyalties blur, the mission spirals. When Paul vanishes mid-operation, Nicole is left with one impossible task—to get the boy out alive.

Even if it costs her everything.

Then, he puts his hands on me.

Suddenly, I lose all control.

Release Boost - The Misfits of Copper County by May Archer



Title: The Misfits of Copper County
Series: The Copper County Series #3
Author: May Archer
Genre: Gay Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Opposites Attract/Enemies to Lovers
Forced Proximity
Release Date: May 13, 2025


BLURB

When you burn down your contractor’s home… and kind of, accidentally invite him to move into yours.

First things first, that fire was a fluke. A tragic, completely unintentional byproduct of high emotions, an ill-timed backyard grilling… and one very shirtless man.

I only meant to confront Brewer—my maddeningly stoic contractor—about a few small concerns with the renovation of my historic money pit.

Instead, I got distracted by his muscles (who grills shirtless in February, I ask you?), I tripped over my words—and my feet—and… well, my carefully-ordered life went up in flames.

Suddenly, Brewer’s living in my attic, his dainty teacups are in my cabinet, his slobbery dog is all up in my business, and I find myself renovating my whole future just as surely as Brewer’s renovating my home.

Copper County was never my endgame. Once I finish writing my article, I’m off on my next assignment. But between late night conversations, sledgehammer therapy sessions, and solving the Jam Cupboard Mystery (it’s a real thing, I promise), I’m starting to think we’re building something neither of us expected.

Because the more I learn about Brewer, the more I realize I’m not the only misfit in Copper County. And that maybe it’s time I stop chasing other people’s truths… and start writing my own.

Release Boost - Bound by Liberty by Zara Teleg



Title: Bound By Liberty
Series: Stained Souls MC #4
Author: Zara Teleg
Genre: MC Romance
Tropes: Second Chance/Enemies to Lovers
Friends to Lovers/Grumpy meets Sunshine
Release Date: April 9, 2025


BLURB

Liberty

The hopeless romantic who believed in her novels—that’s who I was. Until betrayal shattered me.

I lived by the rules. The good wife. The respected professor. The woman who never crossed the line.

Then my world unraveled in truths I wished were lies.

Now, I don’t know who I am anymore. But I know what I crave. Something deeper. Something darker. Something real.

And he sees it in me. Colt. My first love. My greatest mistake.

He offers me a challenge—one that strips away everything I thought I knew about control. No love. No promises. Just surrender. His game. His rules.

I should walk away. But every time he touches me, I come apart. I tell myself I can play without losing… just one more time.

Colt

Liberty spent her entire life trapped in a self-made cage. Now she’s standing before me, silently begging to be set free.

She thinks she can control this. That she can take what I give and still walk away unscathed. She’s wrong.

Because the moment she lets go of her fears around desire, everything changes. When she embraces all her raw, uninhibited fantasies, she ignites a fire that could consume us both.

This isn’t romance. It’s dominance. It’s control. A game she swears she won’t lose. But she’s playing against me.

And when it’s over… she still won’t understand the power I have… Which means she’ll come back for more.

Will I break her?

Or will she break me?

AUTHOR BIO

Zara Teleg writes love stories that scorch the sheets, crack your heart wide open, and leave you begging for more. Her books are emotional, raw, sexy as hell—and always come with a side of redemption and realness.

A good girl raised Italian Catholic, Zara was nine years old when she fell in love with her first romance novel (Sweet Valley High, of course). By the time Jackie Collins entered her world, she was hooked on the bad boys with just enough heart hidden underneath to ruin your life in the best way.

Her heroines are fierce, quick-witted, and full of sexy surprises. Her heroes? All alpha male energy—commanding, magnetic, and more addictive than your favorite late-night craving. Zara believes in lust that lingers, chemistry that consumes, and heartbreak that hurts just enough to make the healing unforgettable.

Writing became her lifeline during a life-altering year—and now, it’s her passion. Her goal? To take you on a ride: fall in love, get wrecked, cry a little (or a lot), and end up feeling more alive than when you started. If you've ever played a love song on repeat, whispered “just one more chapter” at 2 a.m., or fallen for the wrong guy and liked it—Zara gets you.

She lives for sunrise coffee in bed (heavy on the cinnamon and sass), lifting heavy to moody playlists, and laughing until her abs hurt with her loud, loyal Italian crew. Her favorite place? Anywhere near the water—with her journal, her stories, and a damn good cup of coffee.

Release Boost - The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco by Pippa Grant



Title: The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco
Series: Copper Valley Bro Code #6
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Mysterious Protective Hero/Fake
Relationship/Forced Proximity/Treasure Hunt
Release Date: May 8, 2025


BLURB

A reclusive former celebrity, a recovering good girl, and small town trouble...

It started as a joke. After a string of bad boyfriends, I made up a fake boyfriend so people would quit asking when I was going to meet a grumpy lumberjack trying to save his mama’s inn in my adopted hometown.

When my grandma demanded proof from afar, I sent her a picture of me and my “boyfriend.”

Spoiler alert: He wasn’t really my boyfriend.

He was actually a reclusive former boy band member who swings through town sometimes and is friends with my friends.

As much as a reclusive former boy bander can be friends with anyone, that is.

He doesn’t know I told anyone he’s my boyfriend. Or that his name is Steve.

So when Grandma sends the guy she’d rather me marry to town to make sure “Steve” is good enough for me—and to talk me into marrying him instead—I have something of a problem.

But I got myself into this mess, so I’ll get myself out.

By proposing.

Relax, relax, I’m proposing a fake wedding.

And when he turns me down, I can say we broke up.

Except he doesn’t turn me down.

Instead, he offers me a trade.

He’ll pretend to be my groom, but I have to do something for him in return.

And that something?

Hoooo, boy.

I liked the man better when he was my pretend boyfriend Steve.

The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco is an action-packed romcom featuring the reclusive final member of the boy band Bro Code, a recovering good girl with too many men interested in her for all the wrong reasons, a treasure hunt, a fake engagement, and the best surprise to hit the Copper Valley universe since the Fireballs’ new mascot was revealed. This small town romcom stands alone, but you wouldn’t go wrong to read both the Copper Valley Bro Code and Copper Valley Fireballs series, along with Dirty Talking Rival, to catch all of the easter eggs.
