The Great British Bachelor Chase by Lila Monroe

 




Title: The Great British Bachelor Chase
Series: Hollywood Bachelors #2
Author: Lila Monroe
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Exes to Lovers, Grumpy/Sunshine
Release Date: July 31, 2023


BLURB

Fall for a new exes-to-lovers, grumpy/sunshine rom-com from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe! Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey, Ali Hazelwood, and Emily Henry.

Fraser MacKenzie is handsome, Scottish… and the first man to ever break my heart. We had a whirlwind romance during my study-abroad in England, until it ended in an epic ghosting (his), and untold misery (mine). I haven’t laid eyes on his distractingly broad shoulders in ten years… Until I arrive back on British shores for my dream job consulting on a big new production of Pride & Prejudice, and find… that Fraser is working on the movie, too.

Or rather, he finds me. Naked in the communal shower. Clinging to a hand-towel and my dignity for dear life.

I have zero desire to go strolling back down memory lane with him, even if our burning chemistry would put Lizzie and Darcy to shame. But when I accidentally send our lead actor fleeing on a mysterious mission, Fraser and I have four days to track him down - before the entire movie falls apart.

Embarking on a madcap British road-trip with my ex is a recipe for disaster… and serious temptation. Fraser is more infuriating - and swoon-worthy — than ever, and soon, we’re not so much rekindling an old flame as setting the world (and my burning loins) on fire.

But can we overcome the ghostings of the past to find real love? And will we make it to our missing actor in time to save the movie - and my career?

Find out in the hot and hilarious new romance from Lila Monroe!

FORGOT TO SAY GOODBYE by S.L. Scott

   

FORGOT TO SAY GOODBYE


S.L. Scott


Release Date: August 17

Noah Westcott should come with a warning: Too Hot to Handle!   The man is stunningly handsome with his embracing brown eyes and lips that make me want to kiss that smirk right off his face.  

How could I resist?   
Spoiler: I didn’t.   
That was my first mistake.   
I blame him for the second. It should have been easy and fun. No strings attached. No feelings. As if he commanded it like he did me in the bedroom, I did exactly what I said I wouldn’t. I fell for him.   

Two years later, the same man walks into my life. 
Again. 
A lot has changed. Not his devastating good looks, or that smug grin, but for me everything.   Now that Noah’s back—in my office and hanging around after hours—I can’t get distracted. I must protect my secret—the one who calls me Mommy.

EVERYTHING HE COULDN'T by Harlow James

 ✨ Check out the blurb for EVERYTHING HE COULDN'T by @harlowjamesauthor releasing September 1! Who else can't wait for this one?!





One of my favorite songs growing up was Jessie’s Girl by Rick Springfield. Ironically enough, I never realized I’d be living out those lyrics in my own life when I fell for my best friend’s girl—and then my best friend, John Schmitt, died.

Add on the fact that she was pregnant with his child and that I’d been harboring feelings for Evelyn months before all of this happened, and well, now?

Now the lyrics to that song don’t sound so bad anymore.

The worst part is, I’m the one to blame for his death which made facing her an even harder pill to swallow, so what did I do? Pretend like she didn’t exist anymore, even though it was virtually impossible because she was everywhere in our small town of Newberry Springs.

Flash forward six months and suddenly Evelyn finds herself in a legal battle she never saw coming, and I can’t just stand by any longer and pretend like my heart isn’t in shambles.

So I suggest the unthinkable.

I offer to marry her, help her prove that she’s a fit mother and her daughter is being raised well despite John not being in the picture.

But Evelyn doesn’t know that being near her gets my blood pumping, even more so after avoiding her for months.

She doesn’t understand that doing this favor for her is a way for me to gain retribution for John’s death and take a chance to find out if she can reciprocate my feelings.

And she doesn’t get that by being there for her and loving her and her daughter that I’m doing everything that my best friend couldn’t.

Can a wild mama bear and an orderly Tennessee State Trooper fight the BOOM?

There are two sides to Lydia Roark. The wild, fun-loving woman who fights hard to protect bears and other animals. And the strait-laced, doting mother of twins who dresses properly and covers her tattoos so not to embarrass her husband. But when her life blows up in a silicon, Botoxed way, her fiery side is unleashed. The cheating husband she struggled to be perfect for will beg for mercy as Lydia fights for her children and becomes the mama bear she studies.

Enter Maverick Whitlock, the argumentative state trooper has a bear problem and is instantly attracted to the curvy and newly single mom. He’s orderly and everything she doesn’t want anymore. He only wants to protect her and is okay with the chaos she and her children bring to his life.

When Lydia’s ex comes after her and the kids, Maverick is willing to give up his badge for them. Lydia isn’t ready for another attempt at a happily ever after. But you can’t fight the BOOM when it finds you.

Until Lydia is part of Aurora Rose Reynolds's Happily Ever Alpha World. If you loved Until Tucker and Until Cobi, then you will want to read Until Lydia.

Overruled by Bella Matthews

 

“You gonna catch me if I fall, Becks?”

Overruled, an all-new heat-filled, marriage-of-convenience in The Defiant Kings Series from USA Today bestselling author Bella Matthews is available now!

“You gonna catch me if I fall, Becks?”

I should have known those words, whispered to my best friend’s brother, would come back to haunt me . . . But I had no idea he’d be the only one who could save me when my world threatens to come crashing down.

Becket Kingston is a lot of things. Tall, dark and deliciously handsome, he’s corded muscle hidden beneath an expensive suit, with eyes the color of an angry ocean, and a sharp tongue good for so many things.

And this future US Senator with a brain even bigger than his bank account is about to be my fake husband.

It was supposed to be easy . . . until it wasn’t. This relationship we carefully curated for the public has become something completely different behind closed doors—and the occasional open ones.

I knew we needed to lie to everyone we loved to pull this off.

But how long can we lie to ourselves?

On the Shore by Laura Pavlov

 



On the Shore by Laura Pavlov is now live! 


He’s the GOAT of the NFL. She’s a hot-headed reporter who despises him. They’re in the same small town for the summer. What could possibly go wrong?

 

I'm more than aware of the responsibilities that come with being a quarterback in the NFL.

The upside—I get to do what I love every day, which is play football.

And I make more money than I know what to do with.

The downside—everyone wants a piece of me, and the press stalks me ruthlessly. 

And one reporter in particular, Brinkley Reynolds, has crossed a line.

She takes things too far.

So yeah, I have her escorted out of the press conference.

Imagine my surprise when the same woman walks into the coffee shop in the small town where I’ve gone to get some privacy for the summer.

I accuse her of stalking me.

She calls me every name in the book before proceeding to make me feel very unwelcome in Cottonwood Cove.

Her hometown.

The place where she tucked tail and ran after I’d unknowingly gotten her fired.

So now I’m enemy number one.

That’s fine with me. 

I’m not the biggest fan of her either.

She’s equal parts stubborn and aggravating.

But she happens to be the sexiest woman I’ve ever laid eyes on.

So I try to make amends.

I’m not the devil after all.

But she won’t give me the time of day unless I agree to give her my story.

One I’ve fought hard to protect since the day I started playing professional ball.

I don’t owe Brinkley Reynolds anything.

So why am I considering giving her everything?
