BLURB

With the ability to take away heartbreak, Tulya Vegga learned early how to mend shattered souls. One touch from her palm could make someone whole again. On the magical island of Rubia, it was her gift…and her curse. Bound to her mother’s will, Tulya was never meant for happiness—only service.

Donovan Malachite was the opposite: he could inflict pain without lifting a finger. One look could send a zing up anyone’s spine. Feared and revered as a ruthless businessman, Donovan was groomed to inherit his father’s empire and carry out his mother’s calculated plans. He’d never admit his quiet fascination with his innocent neighbor, Tulya.

But when his brother, Magnum, falls in love with a forbidden human, Donovan is forced to accompany Tulya on a mission to “fix” the situation.
They set out to right someone else’s wrong.

Instead, they break all the rules.
And maybe…each other.

As her father lay dying, I swore always to protect fifteen-year-old Zenevieve. I took the grieving girl in, and she filled my life with sunshine. Now she’s grown, she’s looking for a mate, and her eyes have turned to me.

Zenevieve has always been my weakness, but she’s not the woman who has been promised to me. I’m waiting for the Omega I’ve never met, who may have died, who could be lost to me forever. I will wait for her, because I would rather perish in dragonfire than touch a woman who isn’t mine.

But starving for my mate burns my soul. I can resist all temptation, until one day I slip, and I catch the wrong woman in my arms. Sweet, adoring Zenevieve will never forgive me for rejecting her, and I’ll never forgive myself for causing her pain.

The world ends, and then it begins again.

Five hundred years later, I’ve got a second chance to make things right. This time around, I’m doing everything differently. The woman I shouldn’t want is going to be mine.

Author’s Note: The Dragonmaster’s Mate is a rejected mates, second chance, guardian/ward romance. There’s a ten-year age gap and a lot of crushing on a forbidden older man. This book is a standalone, but it's recommended that you read the earlier books in the series first.

Release Blitz - Forced Proximity by Lani Lynn Vale



Title: Forced Proximity
Series: Content Advisory #7
Author: Lani Lynn Vale
Genre: Mafia Romance
Tropes: Forced Proximity, Other Woman Drama
Reverse Grumpy/Sunshine
Release Date: November 4, 2025


BLURB

Finnian “Apollo” Reins met Dru Noel Rossi at his lowest.

She was a bright ray of sunshine in his darkest, cloudiest night.

He had no clue that he needed her. He was just struggling to keep his head above water, going from day to day, waiting for it to be his time to go.

But then she catches his eye in the swankiest restaurant in Washington DC. She’s wearing all black and sticks out like a sore thumb among the elitists’ otherwise dressiest affairs. She may have been severely underdressed, but that didn’t stop Finnian from following her every move and becoming obsessed.

So of course, when she leaves, he follows her. And wouldn’t you know it, she goes right back to his hometown.

But that’s not the first coincidence between the otherwise complete opposites. It’s just a long line of chance encounters that force them together, time and time again, and show them what they’re missing.

She’s the sweetest thing he’s ever met, and understandably, is hesitant to get anywhere near a Truth Teller like him.
The Truth Tellers MC got their hard, terrifying reputations for a reason.

But Finnian wears her down with his charm, while showing her what it’s like to be with someone that won’t hesitate to take out the entire world as long as it makes her smile.

He has to have her in his life, and he’ll do just about anything to make that happen. A little light stalking, financial blackmail and forced proximity never hurt anybody.

Jules Westwood lives her days surrounded by the sweetest treats. But there’s no cookie, cake, or muffin that comes close to giving her the same joy she feels when she sees him.

The man who’s a bit rough around the edges with his laidback attitude and carefree lifestyle is exactly what she wants. Because despite what her family believes, Jules is a bit of a rebel.

Beau Easton didn’t know who Jules was when he first approached her, merely believing a date with her would be much more satisfying than the cookies he bought from her bakery. And when he learns she’s a Westwood, the equivalent of royalty in Landing, he wonders if he should take a step back.

But Beau gets a taste of Jules, getting something far sweeter than he ever expected. There isn’t a chance he’ll ever give her up.

Unfortunately, their secret relationship is uncovered, and her family is shocked. But the Westwoods are going to have to come to terms with the couple’s new relationship, because whether they like it or not, Beau’s going to be part of their family forever.

Release Boost - Kiss My Axe by May Archer



Title: Kiss My Axe
Series: Axford Brothers #1
Author: May Archer
Genre: Gay Romance
Tropes: Enemies to Lovers, Grumpy/Sarcastic Sunshine
Opposites Attract, Fish Out of Water, Small Town
Release Date: October 28, 2025


BLURB

Living in a treehouse? Unavoidable.

Falling for the grumpy lumberjack hottie next door? Unthinkable.

After a viral PR disaster torpedoes my marketing career, I flee Manhattan. The only place left to land? A fairy-tale treehouse in a pickle-obsessed Vermont town, left to me by an uncle I barely knew.

Yes, I said pickles.

No, I’m not okay.

But I’m only here temporarily. Just long enough to regroup, let the notoriety die down, and figure out my next steps in peace.

Unfortunately, my new neighbor has other ideas.

Beckett “the Axe” Axford–cranky local heartthrob and unapologetic tree-murderer–claims Uncle Jim made him promises about the forest around the treehouse, and he’s none too pleased when I won’t take his word for it.

Unfortunately for him, I’m done playing by other people’s rules. I’m not backing down just because some sexy–I mean grumpy–lumberjack says so, and I can handle whatever he dishes out.

Tree climbing? No problem.

Pickle festival popularity contest? Sign me up.

Kissing my unexpectedly-tender, flannel-clad nemesis in the woods after dark? I can take it, bro. And take it. And t– Ahem. You get the picture.

I’m tired of losing, so I’m not giving up my inheritance or my heart without a fight.

And if Beckett thinks differently, he can kiss my axe.
