Jericho St. James hates my family.

Finn

Falling for the nanny isn’t my style...but neither was becoming a single dad overnight.

When my three-year-old niece, Hadley, needs a guardian, I fill the role and need a nanny. Stat. What I get instead is London Ashford—an infuriating redhead who tempts me at every turn.

The harder I push, the more she pushes back. I’m someone used to calling the shots, and her insubordination should irritate me; instead, it turns me on.

My nightclub isn’t going to run itself, so I have to harness my desire for her and let her do her job—so I can do mine.

London

Finnegan Royal is charming, gorgeous, and an insufferable asshole. Not exactly my type...not that it matters. He’s my new boss.

But watching a powerful businessman like Finn be brought to his knees by his toddler niece makes me feel all kinds of things I shouldn’t.

Named one of Chicago’s most eligible bachelors, he owns the hottest club in town and can have any woman he wants, but he has his sights set on me. The nanny.

The beautiful little girl has stolen my heart, but I have no doubt her arrogant uncle would break it if given the chance. So why can’t I stay away?

Title: Ranger Danger
Author: L.A. Wayward
Genre: Dark Romance
Release Date: February 11, 2022


BLURB

You’re mine now

His raw words bring me to my knees
Making me beg for the freedom I crave
He found me alone in the woods
Brought me to his self-imposed prison to wait out the storm, locking us together in a forbidden embrace

To play with
To own
To mark as his

Releasing me from my dirty cage
He wants everything
All my firsts, staking claims for any man who dares to question him
His past still haunts his dreams, and I’m just the girl to release his demons

Can this Alpha, this lone older wolf, turn out to be my salvation?
The one to get my dark, twisted thoughts?
Yes, he takes what he wants, but will he ask me to stay once he finds out the reason why I’m here?

This Ranger is Danger personified
The only question is:
Will he fight for me, or let me go when the storm ends?

EXCERPT

“Trust me when I say I’m the wolf in the woods I warned you about,” he grounds out.
“I wasn’t insinuating,” I whisper. “I saw the picture of you in your uniform and thought—”
“You thought I had honor? You thought I wouldn’t take what I want when it’s being offered to me in such a pretty package.” His voice is hard with an edge, while he runs a single finger down my leg.
A shiver goes through me as wetness builds between my thighs. Without thinking, I open my knees a little, his eyes following each movement. What I would give to have his hands trail up and down my legs and slip between the waistline of my pants so he can feel how wet he makes me. How turned on I am knowing he could easily overpower and fuck me.
His eyes slip over my body, and the corner of his mouth twitches. I shudder because it isn’t a kind smile, it’s something entirely different.
I swallow hard when reality hits me. I’m alone in a stranger’s cabin, snowed in for days. Fear and excitement take hold of me, my stomach doing a little backflip.
He can do anything to me.
Anything he wants, and I would let him if he asked.

PREORDER BLITZ: Hard Limit by Brenda Rothert & Kat Mizera

Preorder On All Platforms

St. Louis Mavericks star defender Lars Jansson is dead set against relationships. A new love makes him wonder if maybe he can change, but first, he must confront the truth about who he is.

Lars

On the ice, I’m unstoppable. If anyone is in my way, it’s simple—I move them. Hockey is my life, and I don’t have the patience for relationships spanning more than one night. But when I meet a woman so bold and intriguing I can’t help wanting more, I’m blindsided by the revelation that no matter what I do, I may never be enough for her.


Sheridan

One night. That’s all it was supposed to be. But Lars Jansson is larger than life in every way—how could one night be enough? It’s risky for me to see him again, and to let myself fall for the stoic hockey player who is charming in his own way. He thinks it’s his truth that could undo us, but he couldn’t be more wrong about that—it’s mine.

About the Authors:

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.

A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...

Title: Conceal
Series: Vindicated #5
Authors: Addison Jane & K E Osborn
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Cover Design: Kellie Dennis, Book Cover by Design
Model: Drew Truckle
Release Date: March 4, 2022


BLURB

Confused, enraged, ruined—that’s how I felt when she left that day, and it took every ounce of strength I had not to go after her.
Our connection was a slow burn.
And it had begun to rage.
Until she blew out of town, with no warning, completely extinguishing the flames.
Now she’s here, standing on the doorstep, holding a piece of me I never knew existed. I should be angry. I should be hurt. But there’s no time for that. Threats have been made, and now it’s up to my team and me to bring down the almost untouchable elite coming after them.
I’ve already lost enough time, and I’ll protect them with my life before I go another day without the now most important parts of my world.
Our fire is stronger than before.
And they’re coming for my family.
But we’ll use it to burn them to the ground.

EXCERPT

Being a part of the SO7 means everything to me. I’ve worked so fucking hard to get to where I am, to be a valued member of the team, so for Brandon to come in and be the one to possibly take it all from me is not something I am comfortable with.
That little asshole, we all should have known he was a double agent from the start. And I wish I was paying more attention that day I was stationed outside of Eli’s house guarding Kenzi. I still feel so much fucking guilt for that. I was the first line of defense for Eli and Kenzi, and Brandon took me out with one swift knock to the fucking head.
He was a crafty bastard, I’ll give him that. How he managed to sneak up on me, I’m still not really sure. But the fallout from that fucked-up day is that I have to take a reentrance exam. To make sure I am still physically fit to be a part of my own goddamn team.
It’s heavy on the fitness side of things, but also includes mental stamina, weighted obstacle courses, tech skills, target practice, then simple things like endurance running. I tried to pass the test a month ago but failed. My body still at peak performance, but my brain is sluggish from my head injury.
If I don’t pass this time, I’m done.
Out of the SO7 for good.
But I have nothing to go back to.

RELEASE BLITZ: Shattered Vows by Shain Roe




Title: Shattered Vows
Author: Shain Rose
Genre: Steamy Arranged Marriage Romance
Release Date: February 10, 2022


BLURB

USA Today Bestselling Author Shain Rose delivers a standalone arranged marriage romance where a grumpy mafia boss will wed a free-spirited surf girl and make sparks fly.

I’m signing over my hand in marriage for six months to save my city.

That’s it.

It should be easy, except Sebastian Armanelli is my sordid one-night fling turned husband. And I’ve just found out he’s the head of the Italian Mob too.

Bastian swears he’s set on reforming the mafia though. They’re accommodating when they used to be murderous. And he’ll be amicable instead of vicious.

Plus, he agrees that it’s only six months in public. In the dark of a private night, we can do as we please. Yet, I know just how he tastes and where each one of his hidden tattoos are. I know Bastian shapeshifts as that gentleman mobster, but in the dark, he’s commanding, ruthless, unyielding.

And possessive.

He refuses to share what he’s claimed as his.
And I’m realizing that includes me–
His lawfully wedded wife.

EXCERPT

“We get married tomorrow.” He threw his suit jacket on a hook and loosened his tie as we walked into the penthouse. His voice made me jump, we’d been silent for so long.
He moved quickly, slipping his shoes off and not making eye contact with me at all.
“Bastian?” When he didn’t look my way and started down the hall to his room, I yelled, “Bastian, what the hell?”
“What the hell?” He whirled around, molten hot rage brewing in his gaze, singeing me as he approached. He got right up to my face and he grabbed my hair at the nape of my neck. “I said, we get married tomorrow. You and me. My fiancĂ©e. Tomorrow, you’ll be my wife. Do you understand?”
I searched his eyes. “You have the audacity to be like this? Mad and all pissy?”
His jaw ticked.
“You have the audacity when you had that woman on your arm whispering things to you all night. You laughed at her jokes. You nestled into her neck. I saw you. And you even said she knew what she was doing before you fucked me.” I poked his shoulder as the grip in my hair got tighter and tighter.
“None of that matters, ragazza. We marry tomorrow and that means you’re not spreading your legs for anyone after that.”
We both stood there breathing fast, stewing, our furious gazes locked on one another. If I’d lit a candle, it would have been blown out by our anger and jealousy flying through the room.
“All about what you own, huh? Am I your property now?” I didn’t give him time to answer. “Fuck you, Sebastian Armanelli.”
