MATCH ME IF YOU CAN

Elise Faber

Release Date: November 9

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE+

He needs a fake fiancée.

Unfortunately, he’s decided he wants me.

Ace Ambrose is the playboy captain of the Harrisburg Hawks. I’m the Blue Line Matchmaker who fixes hockey players’ love lives—including his.

But when he rejects every woman I recommend and offers me two million dollars to play his perfect fiancée, I do what any sensible businesswoman would do.

I accept the contract.

Two weeks with his family. One fake engagement. And very clear rules: no kissing, no hooking up, and absolutely no falling in love.

Until Ace looks at me like I belong to him.

Suddenly, I’m in serious trouble.

Because somewhere along the way, my heart has stopped treating this like a contract…

And our fake engagement is feeling dangerously real.

This is book 1 in the brand-new small town hockey romance series, Blue Line Matchmaking, by USA Today Bestselling Author, Elise Faber.

Is Brick Wall #30 going to get shut out? Find out today in the latest release from Kristen Hope Mazzola!




The league called him the Brick Wall.

Tina Pappas knew better.

The dangerous part was not how hard he was to get past.

It was how safe he made it feel to stay.


Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Hope Mazzola returns to the ice with the next installment in her Shots on Goal: MN Frosthawks series - where love does not erase the past, and moving forward might be the bravest play of all.


Harry Vestergaard has built an entire career out of being impossible to get through.


The Minnesota Frosthawks’ veteran goalie is calm in the crease, brutal under pressure, and stubborn enough to make the whole league regret taking a shot at him. But his body is starting to betray him. His career is closer to the end than the beginning. And for the first time in his life, Harry is not sure what comes next when the game stops loving him back.


Then he meets Konstantina Pappas.


A second-grade teacher. A widow. A single mom doing her best to raise a little boy who is terrified that moving forward means forgetting the father he lost.


Tina is not looking for a love story.

She already had one.

She had the husband. The family. The forever.


But Harry is not easy to dismiss. He is steady when he should be intimidating. Gentle when no one is watching. Patient with Tina’s heart and careful with her son’s. And when seven-year-old Theo starts letting Harry into his small, carefully built world of LEGOs, firehouse patches, and memories he is scared to lose, Tina realizes the most dangerous thing about Harry Vestergaard is not how hard he is to get past.


It is how safe he makes it feel to stay.


Harry knows he cannot replace the man Tina loved.

He would never try.


But loving Tina means learning there might be life after loss.

Loving Theo means understanding some saves do not happen on the ice.

And loving them both might be the one thing that finally teaches the Frosthawks’ brick wall how to let something in.


Brick Wall #30 features:

Widowed single mom romance

Aging goalie hero

Second-grade teacher heroine

Instant attraction with emotional depth

Found family

Soft, steady love after loss

A little boy who slowly trusts

A hero who never tries to replace the man who came before him

And one elderly profanity parrot who absolutely should not be trusted in public

LOVE AT FIRST KILL

Measha Stone

Release Date: November 2

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE+

She hired a fake date. She got a serial killer.

The last six months of second-grade teacher Morgan Hart's life have been brutal.
Her mother was murdered.
And her fiancé left her for his mistress.
So is it any wonder she’s developed a mildly concerning obsession with survival-skills podcasts?

When Morgan needs a date for a ceremony honoring her mother, she hires one.

Knox Cellan is handsome, charming, and very good at making her ex regret coming within ten feet of her.

There’s just one problem.

He isn’t the man the escort service sent.

He’s a serial killer. But hey, nobody’s perfect.

As if life couldn't get any more complicated, a would-be intruder attacks her.
Morgan puts him on the floor, then Knox shows up to finish the job.
Who needs roses and chocolates when there's plastic sheeting, bleach, and serious second-date energy?

Soon they’re hiding bodies, hunting her mother’s killers, and discovering that revenge makes for surprisingly good foreplay.

Morgan isn’t afraid of Knox’s darkness, but Knox might destroy them both trying to save her from it.

BLURB:

I’m married to my club. I’ve got no time for anything else. Managed to survive my fifty-plus years with no woman by my side.

Until the club has a run-in with a woman who I can’t seem to be able to get out of my mind. Feisty, brave, or stupid depending on your point of view, and with the balls to match any of my men.

I saw her once, thought about her a lot, but didn’t expect to ever run into her again. But then Saint unknowingly hires her as the tattoo artist to set up our new shop.

I want to seize the opportunity of getting to know her, but the last thing she wants is anything to do with an outlaw biker club. She didn’t even know we were the shop’s owners until she’d signed on the dotted line.

Maybe I should stay away. I mean, she killed her last boss and served her time. Not exactly a glowing recommendation.

I’ve never been drawn to a woman as I am to her. So when trouble arises from her past, I see an opening to step in and help. Or would do if I can get her to trust me and see the man beneath the patch

Title: Eternal Embrace
Series: Eternal Desires Book 4
Author: Vanessa Fewings
Genre/Tropes: Dark Paranormal Romance; Vampire Romance; Forbidden Love; Vampire Fantasy
Release Date:  November 4, 2026
Publisher: Vinci Books


A dark gothic vampire romance filled with forbidden desire, dangerous immortals, obsessive love, and seductive supernatural intrigue.

He was everything I should have feared.
And everything I could never resist.

I told myself I was stronger than this, that my work, my duty, my reason would keep me grounded. But Jadeon… he shattered every certainty I had. A creature of darkness. A lord among vampires. And yet, when he touched me, the world burned brighter than the rising sun.

He warned me to stay away.
I didn’t listen.

How could I? When every instinct, every reckless, aching part of me demanded I go to him, to understand him, to save him… or be ruined by him.

I am an investigator. I deal in truth, in evidence, in the cold clarity of justice. But there is nothing rational about what binds us. His world is a seductive abyss of velvet shadows and whispered sins. And the deeper I fall, the more I risk losing everything I once believed in.

Everything I am.

Because loving him is not just dangerous…
It is annihilation.

And now the balance has shifted. The hunter and the hunted. The mortal and the immortal. Lines blur. Power fractures. And somewhere in the darkness, a choice waits, one that could cost him eternity…

Or cost me my soul.

Eternal Embrace is a dark paranormal vampire romance perfect for readers who love dangerous immortal heroes, gothic obsession, forbidden love, and emotionally charged vampire fantasy in the vein of Interview with the Vampire, A Dowry of Blood, and Empire of the Vampire.
