Reese Hunter, often dubbed the “nice” one among his best friends, has given up on ever finding his happily ever after. After several failed attempts at love, he’s decided to focus his energy on the business of VIP—and having multiple sex partners. Having been a successful trainer for years, at only twenty-six, he’s forced to take the reins and become the boss. Almost two years later, he still expects Harriet the Hun, the tyrant partner from hell, to arrive and set his ideal world ablaze. But the normally even-tempered, fun-loving man has changed. And when Harriet finally arrives, she is met with a very hostile environment.
Harriet “Harry” Wellington has been berating men for years while she’s climbed the rungs of the business ladder. At forty, this British billionaire and single mother has decided to personally check in on the one company in which she can’t seem to control the men. When she faces the gorgeous and very elusive Reese, she has met her match. The rift between them runs deep—until she almost drowns and he saves her life. This single deed turns their rivalry into a friendship that becomes physical, leaving both baffled and in denial. As tensions begin to lessen and their war of wills bends toward passion, what began as adversarial quickly evolves into something much more than they ever bargained for.

Author: Harlow Cole
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
Release Date: July 18, 2019

Brayden

I’m a goddamn prodigy. It’s true. Ask anyone.
I threw my first curveball the day I was born.
 
The whole town is waiting on me.
To live up to my father’s famous name. To reach for the stars. 
 
All I want to reach for is her.
 
But Ashley is the sweet addiction I can’t afford. She’s my best friend’s sister. Hell, she’s practically my little sister. For years, I’ve protected her from guys that want one thing. What happens now that I’ve turned into one of them? Who’s gonna shield her from the way I was made, from my little white lies and from what I’m about to become?
 
My game plan sounds simple: Pitch my way into the Major League draft and stay out of Ashley Foster’s pants. That first part may be statistically difficult.
 
The second feels damn near impossible.
 
 
Ashley
From the moment we met, I knew he was trouble.
The kind my mother sent me to find.
The type that ruins you for any other brand.
 
When we were young kids, I didn’t know what to call the frogs and butterflies that danced in my belly whenever Brayden came near. Now I know they have a name.
 
Those three little words that could heal or destroy him.
 
Before Brayden, my life was normal. And then it wasn’t. It couldn’t be. Ever again. How was I to know stealing his seat would change all our lives?
 
Anger and forgiveness share two halves of the same coin.
 
Our story might make you choose sides.

NEW RELEASE & EXCERPT!!! ~ Game Changer by Sylvie Stewart

Title: Game Changer
Author: Sylvie Stewart
Genre: Contemporary Romantic Comedy
Release Date: July 18, 2019
There are three things I know about New York so far: everybody is late for something, nobody has a freakin’ clue what sweet tea is, and King Kong himself is still alive and well and has taken the form of a growly blacksmith named Mac.
 
This is no shifter story and I’m not his prey, although I wouldn’t say no if he asked for a little taste. I’ve been saddled with interviewing the beast to secure my new dream job in publishing, but his intense stares and monosyllabic responses are making my job impossible. I just need to get this over with and move on to navigating my new life and career. I’ve got this, right?
 
But my professional and personal challenges are proving bigger than I realized, and Mac might be the only one who truly understands this game. He’ll be my biggest ally if I let him—and the way he keeps saying my name makes me really want to let him. The thing is, this city is known for breaking hearts, and it doesn’t care if you’re the new girl in town or the beast who calls it home.

We had a love I thought could never be broken. But I was wrong. We weren’t as strong as our vows once promised.
 
Dark secrets and vicious lies, they tore us apart.
 
They cut too deep, leaving open wounds.
 
Pain is something that should ever come from the man you love. Forgiveness, understanding, tenderness, yes. But never pain.
 
But the fact remains. He is my husband and I am his wife. Perhaps he should have remembered that a year ago when he committed his first sin against our marriage. And perhaps then, I wouldn’t have fallen for the devil.
 
A devil who had me in his sights from the very beginning.
 
A devil who swore to never let me go.
