Release Blitz: Power by Kathy Lockheart




Power by Kathy Lockheart is now live!
I wrote a revenge list about my boss and accidentally handed it to my new CEO. Then I accidentally slept with that billionaire CEO. You'd think things couldn't get any worse, but spoiler alert: they absolutely did.

Let me explain.

That revenge list was supposed to be private—the kind you write after three margaritas and burn in the morning. And that wild weekend with a gorgeous stranger? Definitely wasn't on my to-do list. (Though maybe it should've been, because... wow.)

Watching him stride onto our company stage as the new CEO Monday morning wasn't part of the plan either.

Now I'm trapped in the world's most dangerous forbidden workplace romance, where every heated glance reminds me of what those hands can do. And Jace (Mr. CEO) won't stop until he exposes the truth—unaware that his best friend is the one behind my list, and a man hiding secrets that could bring down an empire.

The question isn't whether this will blow up in our faces.

It's who will lose more when it does...

From International & Amazon Top 25 Bestselling Author Kathy Lockheart, POWER is a forbidden workplace romance featuring a dangerously obsessive, morally gray billionaire CEO.
This book caught me by surprise—in a good way. It starts off light and fun, with a hilarious setup (a revenge list gone wrong and a steamy "oops" weekend with a stranger-turned-CEO), and then slowly shifts into deeper, more emotional territory.

Scarlett is a complex character, and while I understood her guarded nature due to past trauma, there were moments when her reactions felt a bit too much for me. Still, her vulnerability added depth, and I appreciated that the story didn’t stay surface-level. The chemistry between Scarlett and Jace was electric, and the forbidden workplace dynamic definitely kept me hooked.

The plot had a good balance of humor, spice, and drama—with some twists I didn’t fully see coming. It wasn’t just about the romance; it touched on themes of trust, betrayal, and healing in a way that gave the story emotional weight.

Overall, it was an entertaining, slightly angsty read that delivered more than I expected. I’d recommend it to anyone who enjoys a steamy romance with a side of chaos and heart.
This story was a pleasure to read. It had so many elements that made it exactly what I needed to escape from the stress of real life.

A hardheaded MFC with walls and baggage and a wealthy CEO MMC who manages to tear down those walls and capture her heart.

These two have a tale filled with humor, steam, twists and turns that aren't as predictable as most stories and that is why I enjoyed this one the most.

I recommend this one to romance lovers who enjoy a story with substance.

Release Blitz: The Substitute by J.R. ray and Andi Jaxon



Competing with my step-brother for my roommates attention makes me hate him so much more than I already do.

The Substitute, an all-new grumpy x sunshine, step-brother, MMM hockey romance from bestselling authors Andi Jaxon and J.R. Gray is now available!
I saved his life the same night I burned mine to the ground and now the guy who’s haunted my dreams for months is my new roommate. This should be great except I met him on the worst night of his life and all he sees is that I’m a hockey player.

Only made worse when my cocky, confident, infuriating step-brother, Savage, decides to flirt with Tobi to get under my skin.

Jealousy eats at me when I see life coming back into Tobi’s eyes when he smiles at his phone.

Savage knows it too, pushing me into competing for Tobi until my head is so twisted I don’t know what or who I want anymore.

Now I have to see his pretty face at my door and on the ice.

I can’t have my dream and both of them. The media will eat me alive.

Right?
Do you like emotional reads? What about a steamy MMM? Then you definitely need to read this one. It practically gave me whiplash in a good way. I was all over the boards with the emotions it brought out, and that includes wanting to slap a couple of heads together, which is never a bad thing in a book. LOL. The Substitute is well-written and I loved the character development. It wasn't always an easy read and I found myself wincing a time or two, but it was really good. One I highly recommend you read today!

Release Date: October 7, 2025 

Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC. 

When a snowstorm traps Bryce Richardson in a secluded Vermont cabin with the one woman he never stopped loving, he’s supposed to be focused on security—not second chances. But Rachel Porter, daughter of Senator Porter and the only woman who ever really knew him, is back in his life with a desperate ask: pretend to be her boyfriend for the holiday… and keep her alive.

Silverberry Ridge might look like a picture-perfect winter postcard, but beneath the twinkling lights and pine-scented air, political power plays and security threats swirl. As Titan Group protects the senator’s hush-hush summit, danger creeps closer. For Bryce, duty comes first. For Rachel, survival means trusting the man who once broke her heart.

In a cabin filled with holiday tension, buried feelings reignite and the lines between fake and forever blur. But when enemies close in, the question isn’t whether love gets a second chance—it’s whether it survives at all.

A Very Titan Christmas is a sexy holiday romance with a guaranteed happily ever after and plenty of familiar faces as the Titan Group couples and kids show up to ring in the holidays!

“This is my boyfriend.” The words had come out of her mouth, but she heard her voice as if she were listening to an audiobook, as if someone else had made this outrageous claim, all the while sounding very unsure.

Roman snorted, then coughed to cover his reaction.

Bryce stepped back, but Rachel stayed with him. There was no way she would let him run away without prying off her fingers because, at this point, she would rather die than face her mother with the truth.

His muscles tensed under her grip, but she refused to let go. “Bryce, you remember my mother.”

“We met earlier,” Eloise pointed out. “When it seems he wasn’t your boyfriend.”

“Can I have a word with you?” he whispered under his breath, but they were all close enough that everyone heard.

Rachel still didn’t let him go and decided to ignore him. She addressed her mother. “You remember we dated in high school?”

Eloise slowly blinked. “And, in the course of two hours, found yourself dating again?”

“Yes, absolutely. We’re so happy.”

“Can I talk to you for a minute?” Bryce asked again. He laid a hand on top of the one digging into his jacket but must have realized she wouldn’t let go without making more of a scene than she was already causing.

She still ignored him.

“Excuse us,” he growled, then looped his free arm around her waist and practically carried her through the milling crowd of holiday shoppers until they were far enough away that she couldn’t see her mother. “What the hell are you doing?”

“I’m so sorry.” She released her grip on his arm. “I panicked.”

ABOUT CRISTIN: New York Times bestselling author Cristin Harber packs her military romance, romantic suspense, and new adult romance novels with steam, sizzle, and action of all types. Whether you want fireworks in the bedroom or a hunky ex-military team that saves the day, her bestselling romance novels will make you swoon and smile.

by Shari J. Ryan

Trope: World War II
Auschwitz, 1944. Halina clutches the baby to her chest, cuddling her close for warmth. She must keep moving. Her heart pounds as she races through the thick trees. If she’s caught, this is the end—for both of them…

Walking to work at the orphanage she was raised in, Halina tries to ignore the imposing gates of Auschwitz nearby. She has one dream: to survive the war and find out who her parents were. But one morning, a Nazi officer with icy eyes blocks her way. He needs a new nanny, and he gives Halina a choice: serve in his home, or be sent to the camp…

In the enemy’s world, one wrong step could land Halina in prison—or worse. But she pledges to do good while trapped amongst evil and protect the innocence of the children in her care, especially sweet baby Flora. And when she meets Gavriel—a Jewish prisoner forced into hard labor in the officer’s home, with the kindest eyes she’s ever seen—she knows she’ll risk everything to keep him safe.

But then one day, Halina discovers a letter hidden in the book her mother left with her as a baby. She always wanted to know who she really was—yet that knowledge has plunged her into unimaginable danger.

Because the letter reveals that her mother was Jewish. And Halina is working in the enemy’s home, just a stone’s throw from the prison they’d lock her in if they knew the truth. She must find a way out, to save Gavriel’s life, as well as her own…

Release Blitz and Giveaway: Beyond the Blue Horizon

 

Beyond the Blue Horizon by A.L. Jackson is now live! 

I should have known I’d break the promise I made when I found her stranded in a blizzard…

Feisty as hell and the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen.
With the cutest kid and her grandmother in tow, she’s completely off limits.


I don't get involved with women like that.
I learned long ago I don't have the ability to love.
My life is sordid and danger is always hiding in the shadows.


Only I can’t turn my back on them when I realize she’s in trouble, and I insist on them staying in a cabin at the motel I own.


As penance for my sins, I promised my life to protecting others.
Except she becomes so much more.
A need I don’t recognize. A desperation that burns beneath my flesh.
One kiss, and I’m falling for her. 
One touch, and I’m at her feet.


But when my dark past comes back to haunt me, I’m in a race against time to save the only woman I’ve ever loved. Only it may be the demons that have been chasing her that destroy what we built…

I devoured this book. From the very first page, I was completely hooked. AL Jackson has a gift for storytelling—her ability to weave deep emotion, tension, and romance together is just phenomenal. This was one of those reads I simply couldn’t put down.

What I loved most was the dynamic between the main characters. The heroine is strong and feisty, yet we gradually see her more vulnerable side emerge in such a real, relatable way. And the hero? Classic AL Jackson—brooding, self-sacrificing, and convinced he’s unworthy of love. I never get tired of that type of male lead, especially when their emotional walls start to crumble.

There’s also something so satisfying about the way Jackson connects her book worlds. The little Easter eggs and cameos from previous characters are like a treat for long-time fans. It feels like visiting old friends, and it makes the story that much richer.

The romance in this book is intense, emotional, and beautifully paced. Add in a touch of suspense and a snowy, close-quarters setting, and you’ve got the perfect backdrop for sparks to fly—and hearts to heal.

If you're into emotionally charged romances with layered characters, slow-burning chemistry, and a touch of danger, this one is a must-read. AL Jackson never misses, and this book is proof of that.

AL Jackson is one of my go-to authors when I need a story with all the feels: emotion, romance, steam, suspense. I honestly think this one is at the top of the list of her books for me. 

From the moment I started this book to the very last word, my heart was racing and my mind in an emotional rollercoaster as I dove into the tale of these two characters. We have our strong, independent, sensitive MFC and our dark, closed-off, broody MMC. 

The chemistry these two had was beautiful. As these two grow closer, the walls each have built begin to crumble, and we are left with an incredible relationship, stronger because of their weaknesses they each embraced.

If you are looking for a story that is filled with raw emotion, tense scenes, suspense for days, and wonderfully paced then you will absolutely FALL for this one. A true must read that will enter your top ten list for sure.
