Release Blitz: Sleep Sweet by Erica Easton

 



Sleep Sweet by Erica Easton is now live!




Elle

As a first-generation college student, I swore off conventionally hot men and stayed focused on my education. That is, until …

His ocean eyes crash into mine—right after he literally crashed into me.

That’s how Jesse and I meet—on the same day he signs his agreement to join the Navy after graduation.

And then we spend the next two years building our relationship.

Until he has to leave for boot camp, and my mantra becomes:

Keep me calm, keep him safe, keep us together.

But it’s futile … because it’s all ruined in an instant.

Our future.

Our plans.

Our love.

Our trust.

It’s funny how two minutes can unravel two years. Two minutes was all he ever needed anyway.


Austin

Somehow, my dream girl has fallen out of my dreams and landed in my life for the second time.

Half of our story was written by the coincidence that had brought Jesse into my division when he reported for boot camp. His bad decisions and my memory of her forged the other half.

Two years have passed, but I’ve never forgotten her face.

Her striking brown eyes.

Those full, glazed lips.

The innocence.

I begged my memory to erase her.

I didn’t have time for many things because the Navy came first. Always.

But somehow, the tides have drifted Elle back into the safety of my harbor.

Nothing will stop me from making her mine.

And proving to her that I am worthy of being hers.

Before she finds out the truth.

Review Tour: Crooked by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward


Title: Crooked
Authors: Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Bodyguard, Close Proximity
Mafia Daughter, Forbidden
Release Date: March 29, 2026
A new, sexy standalone novel from New York Times Bestsellers, Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward…

The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a walking bad decision.

But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss, apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new bodyguard.

Wes knew exactly how to push my buttons. He was also infuriatingly protective. And smart. And funny. And thoughtful when he thought I wasn’t paying attention. Little by little, the walls I’d built started to crack, and falling for the bodyguard became the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done. Because if my father found out, Wes wouldn’t just lose his job. He’d lose his life.

Getting involved with him was reckless, yet I couldn’t find a way to stop it, no matter how hard I tried. But while I was busy losing my heart, the man who took it was hiding a secret.

And it turned out, the most dangerous man in my life wasn’t my father after all—it was the one who threatened to break my heart.

I sped through this book like I was in a race or something! Wonderful read.

Wes is a bodyguard assigned to protect Juliette, who wants nothing of it, him, or her mafia father's business. But tensions are high with a rival family, so Wes it is.

The attraction is instant and palpable. However, Wes knows that Juliette's father will literally kill him if he touches her. So he does his best to keep his distance while protecting her.

This will they won't they tension keeps the reading flowing and on a quick pace. I won't tell you if they do or how it ends, but I can promise you will be entertained to the very last page!
Crooked by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward was a solid 4-star read for me! I went in expecting a classic bodyguard romance, but it completely surprised me in the best way. The twist? I truly did not see it coming—and it elevated the entire story.

Wes… wow. Hunky, protective, and irresistible, yet bound by duty. Watching him try (and fail) to keep things strictly professional with Juliette made the tension that much better. And Juliette—strong, independent, and trying to escape the shadow of her mob boss father—was such a compelling heroine. Their push-and-pull dynamic, mixed with forced proximity, made for some seriously addictive reading.

What really stood out was how the story balanced romance, danger, and that unexpected twist that shifts everything. If you love a steamy, high-stakes romance with great banter and a satisfying HEA, this one is definitely worth picking up.

Release Blitz: Forever Laced by Elise Faber

 

FOREVER LACED

Elise Faber

Release Date: March 30

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED



I don’t take risks.

Not with my heart—and certainly not with my daughter.


My life is about hockey and being a dad.

Love isn’t part of the plan.

Then I hire Finley to be my daughter’s nanny.

She’s supposed to be temporary. Someone to help me get through the chaos of the season.

Not someone who matters.

Only…she does.

She makes my daughter smile again. Laugh again. Somehow she makes our home feel like a home again.

I know I shouldn’t want her. Know I can’t afford to fall for her—not when she’s going to leave at the end of the season.

Only my heart doesn’t listen.

I find myself in too deep…and wondering if I can risk it all for another shot at forever.

Elise changes her hair color more often than some people change their socks, loves sparkly things, and is the mom to two exuberant boys. She lives in Northern California.
