Title: Accidental Attachment
Author: Max Monroe
Genre: Romantic Comedy (stand alone)
Release Date: April 30, 2023
Cover Design: Peter Alderweireld







⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jeeves Reads Romance - “A slow-burning treat, this exceedingly low angst romance is easily one of my new favorites from this writing duo.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goodreads Review - “This book is full of Max Monroe Hallmarks. Witty banter. Lots of laughs. Tons of self deprecating - in the cutest way - inner monologue.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Catbythesea Reads - “I’ve never read anything quite as amazing as this book, it made me sad, filled with laughter and joy all at the same time.”


A successful writer accidentally sends her new (and super-dreamy) editor the wrong manuscript. Instead of the full-length paranormal novel she promised Longstrand Publishing, she sends the fan fiction she’s written about her crush…on him—including every detail of the hot, steamy “physical activity” she’s fantasized about happening between them.

And Chase Dawson may be the hottest man alive and a super-talented editor to boot, but he’s completely oblivious that he’s the star of the manuscript he just convinced his boss to green-light.

Brooke Baker has been through a lot in her thirty-one years of life.

A divorce.
A career change.
A move to New York City from “small-town” Ohio.
Not to mention, she has a bit of a medical condition that involves occasional fainting spells, mild embarrassment, and the companionship of her adorable service dog and canine sidekick, Benji.

But none of it has prepared her for this.

None of it prepared her for Chase Dawson.

Strong jaw, blue eyes, cut muscles, and a perfect swoop of superhero-worthy black hair, Chase’s features are those of a book boyfriend and then some. Obviously, Brooke would know—she literally filled an entire manuscript with it.

A manuscript no one was ever supposed to see.

Will she survive two months of revising and editing the sizzling romance she imagined with Chase in extremely close quarters with him? Or will the constant white lies and overwhelming attraction make her spontaneously combust?

 

Alaska Blaze
LoLo Paige
(Blazing Hearts Wildfire Series, #3)
Publication date: April 30th 2023
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense

Can an Alaskan firestorm lead to true love under a midnight sun?

Alaskan firefighter Raynie Atwood thinks she know what she wants—until a walking encyclopedia disguised as a hotshot firefighter storms into her life. Grieving loss and betrayal by the man she once loved, Raynie sets her sights on a top command post for wildland fire. But when an extended drought, a high heat, and beetle-killed forests add up to the perfect firestorm, Raynie’s leadership is put to the test.

To add fuel to the fire, Cohen Tremblay tests Raynie at every turn as she works to save sled dogs and Iditarod mushers dog kennels in a deadly Alaskan conflagration…and to make matters worse, a deadly threat from Raynie’s past has her fearing for her life.
But when Raynie’s world goes up in flames, Cohen may be the only one Raynie can rely on…hard to do when she no longer trusts any man, let alone a bullish co-worker. Instead, she constructs a rock-solid containment line around her heart. But fire is unpredictable, and so is love. Will their chance for love be snuffed before it ignites?

Romance, fire, and betrayal…another deadly mix!

EXCERPT:

Saving himself and these dogs would be a tricky maneuver. Cohen had no time to lose. Ash and embers scorched his tongue as if the devil was licking it. Hot air pressed down on him. He couldn’t swallow—no saliva.

I’m out of time! Time to deploy my fire shelter. How will I fit three adult dogs, me, and a sack load of puppies inside my shelter?

Cohen stuck the neck of the burlap sack in his teeth, as he couldn’t set the puppies down in the water. He reached behind and retrieved his fire shelter. He tugged it from the case, yanked the cords, and shook it out.

“Rooby! Wacko! Come here!” he commanded, spitting around the burlap clenched in his teeth. The terrified dogs sidled in next to him, and he crouched down, spreading the fire shelter over them. He tied the end of Madonna’s rope around the neck of the sack and draped it around his neck, so the sack hung on his left side. As long as Madonna sat in front of him and wouldn’t bolt, this might work. He wrapped a corner of the shelter around Rooby and another around Wacko and held the corners with each hand.

This has to work. He had no other choice. They couldn’t outrun this fast-moving wildfire. He tasted ash, a bitter mixture of wood and dirt. The fire bellowed like a savage dragon, hellbent to destroy in the blink of an eye what took decades to grow and mature.

Don’t panic! Keep it together. If I panic, the dogs will, and we’ll all go up in smoke.

Cohen held the shelter down over the dogs and himself as best he could, pressing the dogs close to him. Flames swept the clearing from all directions, obliterating all sound except their tornadic roar. Crouching low in the water, he did his best to keep the puppies above the boggy surface—and prayed the dogs wouldn’t panic and run—or they’d all die.

A dog barked; Cohen didn’t know who. Another yipped and cried. Madonna howled and Cohen felt her tense and brace, as if ready to run. “Whoa, Madonna, whoa Madonna…” He didn’t know how many times he repeated the husky’s name as the raging fire whipped around them. The natural water barrier certainly helped, but the winds tore at his shelter. He gripped it so tight he worried his hands would cramp and lose their hold. Despite his layers of protective Nomex, heat encased his fire shelter and pierced him as if he was the delicacy cooking on a closed outdoor grill.

The hot destructive flames licked at the very edges of his shelter. He prayed it wouldn’t melt and collapse on him. A burning tree crashed into the bog in front of them, and Madonna yelped. The husky yanked away from their huddle, and Cohen watched helplessly as the sled dog bolted, jerking the burlap sack from around his neck and dragging the bundle of puppies through the water—straight toward the destructive flames.

BLURB:

In this Hot Billionaire RomCom, a drunken bar hook-up comes back to bite when Samaera answers a horrific job ad written to attract a male personal assistant, and ‘Sam’ is hired sight unseen to the Big Book Boss of Precious Kitty (Females, not felines!) Publishing House.


Meeting him was a total fluke.

Doing him was a BIG mistake.

Or was it?


He was a beefcake at the bar watching the Yankees game with a bro.

Needing liquor courage for the karaoke contest, Samaera inserted herself.

Tipsy from the drinks and drunk on the win, Dixie Doodle does something stupid.

But … #BestSexEver.


Ten days later, she answers a horrifically worded ad.

Clearly intended to attract a male Personal Assistant to a billionaire mogul.

No woman would want to work for a Boss (dick).

But desperate and fearless, ‘Sam’ applies.


Immediately, she is offered the position.

The catch, she has ten minutes to arrive.


Rushing by the outgoing personal assistant, she crashes into Boss Dick's office.

On her knees, she hears, “You’re not a man. Get out!”

But Samaera is a fighter, not a quitter, and threatens a sexist lawsuit.

To which an all too familiar voice from the bar answers:

“Then grab a condom for your heart, honey. I’m going to f—k your feelings.”


Then Bastian realizes who was hired, and he proceeds to rewrite her job duties.

Her feelings are not the only thing he intends to f--k.


Her mantra becomes, “Do a good job. Don’t do him—again.”

But his demand that she be with him 24/7 could prove to be too much.

If only his body wasn’t chiseled and his lips weren’t sculpted.

And she didn’t know how BIG Book Boss is!


Join Samaera and Sebastian for a hot whirlwind billionaire romantic comedy full of steamy scenes in this opposites-attract, grumpy-sunshine new release by #4 Amazon Chart Author Jessika Klide.

*This is a Standalone novel*

Title: Spelling Disaster
Author: Harper A. Brooks
Genre: NA Paranormal Academy
Cover Designer: Design by Definition Covers
Publication Date: May 25th, 2023
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

 

Blurb:

Growing up as the daughter of a magical librarian, I’ve lived a thousand lives through books. When I’m supposed to follow family tradition and become a cleric on my twenty-first birthday, the ancient library where I live mysteriously burns down and I’m named the main suspect.

 

To keep me out of trouble, I’m sent away to the Andora Academy of Witchcraft.

 

Cliques thrive at my new school, so of course, I’m at the bottom of the social ladder. But I have a much bigger problem than school drama. Something sinister is lurking in the shadows, something that wants to use me and my family for its devious plot.

 

I’m not the only one who’s noticed, though. Theo, the popular witch I’m crushing on, knows too, and to my luck, he wants to help. Unfortunately, sifting through the academy’s secrets is proving to be just as hard as passing my classes.

 

Scratch that—harder, and much more dangerous.

 

The closer Theo and I get to answers, the more dark magic emerges. I may not have been able to save my home from the flames, but I refuse to let the academy, my family, and the truth all go up in smoke.

 

 

**Spelling Disaster is a NA Paranormal Academy standalone.**





Harper A. Brooks lives in a small town on the New Jersey shore. Even though classic authors have always filled her bookshelves, she finds her writing muse drawn to the dark, magical, and romantic. But when she isn't creating entire worlds with sexy shifters or legendary love stories, you can find her either with a good cup of coffee in hand or at home snuggling with her furry, four-legged son, Sammy.

She writes urban fantasy and paranormal romance.
