The pucking wrong number

Jane, C. R., author.

Give me a second chance, babe and I'll blow your mind." Monroe doesn't know why she answers the text that's obviously meant for someone else. Or why she keeps answering. Maybe it's because she's all alone in a big city and in desperate need of a lifeline. Or maybe it's because each exchange leaves her intrigued and more than a little turned on. Still, Monroe never would've snarked back if she'd known she was talking to the "Golden Boy" of the Dallas Knights. She couldn't care less about Lincoln Daniels' hockey-god status, and this only seems to attract him more. He's used to scoring on and off the ice, and now he's obsessed with his next goal: making Monroe his no matter what it takes. Intense doesn't begin to cover the way Lincoln pursues her. But despite the red flags, Monroe starts to crave the way he makes her feel really, truly wanted. Maybe Mr. Wrong Number is actually Mr. Right.....

Two exes. One summer wedding. Zero chance of escaping the heat... Twenty-eight-year-old Kiki Banjo hosts the popular podcast The HeartBeat, solving romantic conundrums and dishing out life advice.

Then Kiki finds herself face-to-face with the Best Man, her ex-boyfriend, Malakai -- the smooth-talking, absurdly handsome, annoyingly perceptive man who stole her heart and then shattered it. While Kiki's approaching rock bottom, Malakai's been on the rise as a filmmaker, and now they have no choice but to play nice until the wedding is over. Both are hell-bent on ignoring the smoldering chemistry between them, but as they navigate the chaos of wedding plans, career ambitions, and Kiki's growing fears about the future, they can't ignore the spark that's only getting hotter.....

The monster and the last blood match

Linde, K. A., author.

For Reyna Carpenter, giving up her body isn't a choice -- it's survival. In a world where humans are currency and vampires rule from the shadows, Reyna accepts a high-paying position among the wealthy and ruthless elite. Her new job: a live-in blood escort for the enigmatic and dangerously powerful Beckham Anderson. She expects cruelty. She expects hunger. She expects to become his next meal. But Beckham won't drink from her. He keeps his distance, his unreadable gaze shadowed by something far more dangerous than just desire. As the nights pass, Reyna begins to sense it -- an invisible war being waged around her, secrets that twist through the corridors of Visage, and whispers of something far more valuable than power. Because Reyna isn't just rare -- she's the key to something bigger than she ever imagined. And the reason Beckham refuses to taste her blood? It might not just change them -- it might destroy everything.....

Maid for each other

Pintor, Lynn, autor.

As a professional cleaner, Abi Mariano never thought her apartment would have any sort of infestation, but because of a floor-wide outbreak (thanks, Apartment 2B), she now needs somewhere to stay for a week. As a part-time student with two jobs, she doesn't have many options. Then the solution presents itself: the owner of the penthouse she cleans is out of town for the week. She normally wouldn't consider it, but he's literally never around (she's never even met him). It goes great... until she comes out of the bedroom one morning to find two strangers in the kitchen. They're the parents of the penthouse owner and they seem to think they've heard all about Abi -- not as their son's maid, but as his girlfriend. Declan Powell has always put his career first, working his way up to executive vice president at Hathaway Holdings, but he still has his eyes set on the next level. When his parents mention they met his girlfriend Abi, he all but chokes on his escargot. As great as it sounds that she was just darling, he doesn't actually have a girlfriend -- he made her up to get everyone off his back. When Dex finds out who Abi really is, he makes her a proposition: pretend to date him, and he'll provide everything she needs during their little arrangement. What harm would it do? It's purely business, no pleasure... right?....

Echoes of the sea

Eden, Sarah M., author.

For Kipling Summerfield, the glamour of Hollywood is becoming a distant memory. After losing the role of a lifetime, he's forced to take a lesser job as a historical reenactor on England's Guilford Island. But a sudden storm changes everything, casting him into the ocean -- and into the care of a mysterious lighthouse keeper. Kip assumes the island's immersive historical setting is part of an elaborate performance, though the method actors are too convincing, the details too vivid -- almost like they believe they are in 1803. But then he meets Miss Amelia Archibald, a determined and captivating woman whose quiet strength is more than just acting, and it makes him question everything he believes about Guilford. Amelia has spent her life as an unimportant poor relation and is now trapped by her late grandfather's will on an island she loathes because of her great fear of the sea, forced to restore the crumbling estate there to claim her inheritance or lose it all and her freedom to her uncle if she fails. When Kip stumbles into her world, his strange ideas and warm presence are both a disruption and an unexpected light. As Kip and Amelia work to save Guilford Island, an undeniable connection blooms between them. But when Kip uncovers the truth about where -- or when -- he is, he must make an impossible choice: rise to meet the expectations of Amelia's world and build a life worthy of her station or walk away from the love that has redefined his very existence.....
