My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

Her Christmastime Family is the second book in the Golden Matchmakers Club. The book was beautifully written with a gorgeous cover.  It was a heartwarming small-town romance with all the Christmas fell goods. The matchmakers in the small town of Golden are plotting another romance between two single parents that need a little happiness themselves.

Single mother Faith Harper had made bad decisions in the past but after her divorce, she is determined to get things right.  She wants to make new family traditions this year for her two children and give them the best Christmas to remember.  

Police officer Roan Donovan was struggling with his two daughters and had never been excited about Christmas. With this being the second Christmas after the death of his wife, his children are wanting to celebrate the holidays like they use to.  Roan realizes he does not know anything about holiday traditions, but his pretty neighbor Faith does.  

It was only natural for their two families to do things together since both were doing it anyways.  So, with a little help from the town’s matchmakers, their holiday plans are synced together.  I loved seeing the matchmakers up to their schemes again.  They are so determined for their younger family members to find happiness in the small town of Golden.  Faith and Roan were perfect for each other and their support of each other helped their relationship grow.  I loved seeing Faith’s confidence in herself grow and her family acknowledging her skills. I was glad to see Roan and his previous mother-in-law finally agree with each other.  I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the matchmakers' next couple they help to find their happiness.

Releasing: January 27, 2022

Cover Design: Outlined with Love Designs

 

What happens in Vegas doesn't always stay there.

I would know. I'm coming home with a brand-new ring on my finger.

My wife? Ryan Bell.
We're polar opposites.
She's sunshine and happiness.
I'm grumpy and scarred--literally.

We could get it annulled and no one would be the wiser.
Only problem? We posted about it online, and it's already making headlines.

I can't afford to get that kind of attention and tank my career, and Ryan needs my help too.

We make a plan: stay married for one year, play our roles, and divorce amicably at the end. No harm, no foul.

Besides, there's no way the beauty is going to fall for the beast...

The O Zone by Kelly Jamieson

 The O Zone by Kelly Jamieson releases on January 4th!

https://geni.us/TheOZone

Available on All Platforms

He's on the defense against love but scoring in the O zone is so much fun…

Owen Cook

I have one goal: To be the best hockey player I can be. I’m not going to waste the opportunity I have. All my focus is on hockey. I avoid distractions like women and relationships during the hockey season, but when a quirky subway busker asks me out on a fake date, somehow I’m intrigued enough to accept.

Emerie Ross

I gave up my music dreams to look after my half-sister. I don’t want her to feel as alone and neglected as I did after our mother died. But my ex-boyfriend is still trying to win me back and now my stepfather is helping him. Gah! I’d rather drink bleach than marry Roman Moretti. If they think I’m involved with someone else, maybe they’ll give up on that idea. All I need is a man…a date for a party.

Owen

When Emerie introduces me to her wicked stepfather (ha) I realize I’ve made a huge mistake. He’s my boss—the man who owns the team I play for. And he’s not happy to see me with Emerie. Can you say career ending move?

Emerie

Oops. I hate hockey. How was I supposed to know who Owen is? How are we going to keep Vince from trading him away? How am I going to make sure I stay happily un-married? We’re going to have to keep up this pretense even if it means me going to hockey games. Ugh. Even if it means disrupting Owen’s rigid routines. Even if it means everything gets a lot more complicated…

Shelter by Kristen Proby

Shelter by Kristen Proby is now live!

A small town, close proximity romance from New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Kristen Proby.

Remi Carter has survived her fifteen minutes of fame and is putting LA in her rearview mirror. As a former reality show contestant, she's trading staged expeditions and faked wilderness tours for real adventures. Only one fluke storm in Glacier National Park has her stranded with a handsome man, and adventure takes on a whole new meaning.
Seth King is as rugged and sexy as he is annoyed to be trapped with Remi. Probably because she ghosted him at the local bar not three days ago. But she's got her reasons for ditching him, and twenty-four hours in an abandoned Montana cabin with the wildlife biologist isn't nearly enough time to explain. As tempting as he is by firelight, she's been burned too many times.
Except one day together and suddenly her travel van doesn't hold as much appeal. The open road feels lonely. Remi's about to learn that shelter is more than a safe place to weather a storm.
Shelter might just be the man himself. If he can give her a reason to stay.

My rating: 4 out of 5 stars

My review:

Shelter is the second book in the Heroes of Big Sky series by Kristen Proby.  I haven’t read the previous book in the series, but this was perfectly fine reading as a standalone.  It was short, easy to read, and fast-paced.  The characters were likable and easy to connect with.  I enjoyed meeting all the King family and characters of Cunningham Falls.  I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for the rest of the King family in the future.  This was a charming story that makes you feel good and leaves you smiling at the end.

His for the Holidays by Samantha Chase

 

His for the Holidays by Samantha Chase is now live!

What better way to unwind from the stress of a family Thanksgiving, than escaping with an armload of Christmas cookies?

Hannah Christy was eager to head home and devour her treats in solitude, while doing some prep work for the promotion she was vying for. Those plans came to a screeching halt... along with the elevator.... trapping her inside with her sexy neighbor.

After being trapped with his match-making family over Thanksgiving, getting stuck in an elevator was a welcome reprieve for Gage Lawson.

If it was up to him, he would gladly stay stranded well into the new year. Especially since his neighbor has a whole treasure trove of ideas on how to pass the time. The best Christmas cookies he's ever tasted. Delicious spiced wine. Fun getting-to-know-you games. It's the most holiday merriment he's had in a long while.

Somewhere in the midst of it all, Gage comes up with the perfect plan. A fake romance to help make both their family get-togethers more jolly! To his surprise, Hannah agrees to be his for the holidays. Yet with the mistletoe in full bloom, and her on his arm, Gage soon realizes their little Christmas show isn't enough. He wants her for real... and forever.

Roast the chestnuts and hang the stockings, Gage has a plan! With the help of the 55 and over residents, magical flurries, and a never-ending supply of hot cocoa with extra marshmallows, he's determined to show Hannah that Christmas is the most wonderful time of year to fall in love.

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

Samantha Chases’s His for the Holidays was a delightful holiday book.  It had a cute meet, characters you won’t forget, and a lot of humor.  It was a fast read, had a good storyline, and was well written.  The characters were charming, genuine, and realistic.  I enjoyed meeting all of the Lawson family and loved all their holiday traditions.

Interior designer Hannah Christy returns home from Thanksgiving with her family only to get stuck in the elevator in her apartment building with the new guy.  After spending hours taking while they waited for the elevator to work, she suggested Gage take a fake girlfriend to his mother’s Christmas get-together.  Gage Lawson was charmed by Hannah in the elevator and wanted her to play his fake girlfriend.  He loved how she fit in with his family and took everything in stride.  Can their fake relationship turn into something real?

This was a cute holiday story and perfect for a Hallmark movie.  This is a great book to read with hot chocolate and a warm blanket.  It will leave you with all the feel-goods and holiday cheer.

Waiting for You by Lea Coll

 

Waiting for You by Lea Coll is now live!

How can Ava resist her best friend's brother when she's crushed on him since childhood?

I didn't think Alex could get any hotter, but his time at med school was good to him.
Dirty blond hair. A bit of scruff across his chiseled jawline. And a body beneath those scrubs that makes me think all sorts of naughty things.

Alex seems to be utter perfection... and he barely notices I exist.

Or so I thought. Lately, everywhere I look he's there. Renting a room in my bed and breakfast. Devouring my pastries. Wanting to talk every morning over coffee. Is it possible my lifelong crush finally sees me as more than his little sister's best friend?

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

4.5 stars
Waiting for You is the sixth book in the Annapolis Harbor series and the first book I have read by Lea Coll. I am so glad I discovered her books since I love small-town romances and this book delivered. It was fast-paced, easy to read, and had lovable characters.
Alex had returned home from New York, where he had been attending medical school, to Annapolis to finish his medical residency for ED. While completing school, he saw how other doctors’ marriages had been ruined because of how demanding the profession was so he never saw a relationship in his future. But coming home to Annapolis pointed out how empty his current life was and all he was missing out on by being away from his family. His attraction to Ava while staying at the B&B made him reevaluate what he really wanted in life.
Ava had been crushing on Alex, her best friend’s older brother since she was a teenager. She knew she shouldn’t become involved with him since he would be returning to New York and was not interested in a relationship. She had already been left behind when her mother left when she was a child and her last boyfriend left with no thoughts of leaving her behind. She feared she was unlovable and knew he would break her heart when he left.
This was a heartwarming small-town romance with all the feel-goods. Ava and Alex were the perfect couple and I enjoyed reading their book. I had no problem reading this book as a stand-alone but after meeting all the side characters I cannot wait to read their stories.
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

MY UNEXPECTED SURPRISE by Piper Rayne

 

Release Date: December 14

I never thought of myself as dad material.

Until my one-night stand showed up in my small Alaskan town five months pregnant.

But I don’t shy away from responsibility. First, because I’m a Greene and not to boast but we’re kind of a big deal in Sunrise Bay. Second, I’m the Sheriff.

I couldn’t have predicted how protective I’d become for the safety of her and my unborn baby to the point of asking her to move in with me and be my roommate.

Just when I think I have the situation under control, another surprise knocks me over, but it only spurs me to double down.

I’ll be the first to admit, I didn’t think it through. Somewhere between the dinners, the TV show binging, the doctor appointments, and me walking in on her naked, lines blurred.

In what feels like warp speed, my bachelor for life status is in jeopardy and I’m fighting for the most important thing of all—my family.
