**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Yule Be Mine by Piper Rayne

 

Yule Be Mine by Piper Rayne is now live!

When workaholic best man Carter arrives in Mistletoe Falls for his best friends’ Christmas wedding, a town-wide Santa Festival and a misplaced motel reservation leave him with one option—beg the woman he once rejected for a room at her bed-and-breakfast. Unfortunately, that woman also happens to be the bride’s sister…and the maid of honor.

To make matters worse, the bride and groom are delayed, turning Ashley and Carter into last-minute wedding planners, forced into a truce neither of them wants. But late-night checklists, a blizzard of holiday activities, and a charming small town turn their snark into sparks.

When they get snowed in and every near-kiss feels dangerously close to something real, Carter realizes there’s more to December than year-end deadlines.

As their truce melts, one question remains—is this a holiday fling, or the start of forever?

Tonya's Review

5 Stars

This is such a cute Christmas read.  It is a stand alone and a second chance story.

It has the whole Hallmark movie Christmas vibe going for it.  

Small town...Check!

Workaholic from out of town...Check!

B & B owner...Double Check!

Carter is in Mistletoe Falls for the wedding of his two best friends.  He is the Best Man.  But when his original hotel falls through because of the town's Santa Festival, he has no choice but to ask Ashley to let him stay at her B & B.  

But he rejected her not too long ago.

She's also the Bride's twin sister and Maid of Honor.

There are some mishaps that have Carter and Ashley having to work together to save the wedding.

They truly get to know each other because of this.  What they previously thought of one another gets turned upside down and proven wrong.

A little spiked eggnog and a Christmas wish later...

I love these two and their story.  It is such a cute read.  

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Forced Proximity by Lani Lynn Vale

Title: Forced Proximity

Series: Content Advisory #7

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Mafia Romance

Tropes: Forced Proximity, Other Woman Drama

Reverse Grumpy/Sunshine

Release Date: November 4, 2025

BLURB

Finnian “Apollo” Reins met Dru Noel Rossi at his lowest.

She was a bright ray of sunshine in his darkest, cloudiest night.

He had no clue that he needed her. He was just struggling to keep his head above water, going from day to day, waiting for it to be his time to go.

But then she catches his eye in the swankiest restaurant in Washington DC. She’s wearing all black and sticks out like a sore thumb among the elitists’ otherwise dressiest affairs. She may have been severely underdressed, but that didn’t stop Finnian from following her every move and becoming obsessed.

So of course, when she leaves, he follows her. And wouldn’t you know it, she goes right back to his hometown.

But that’s not the first coincidence between the otherwise complete opposites. It’s just a long line of chance encounters that force them together, time and time again, and show them what they’re missing.

She’s the sweetest thing he’s ever met, and understandably, is hesitant to get anywhere near a Truth Teller like him.

The Truth Tellers MC got their hard, terrifying reputations for a reason.

But Finnian wears her down with his charm, while showing her what it’s like to be with someone that won’t hesitate to take out the entire world as long as it makes her smile.

He has to have her in his life, and he’ll do just about anything to make that happen. A little light stalking, financial blackmail and forced proximity never hurt anybody.

5 Stars

This is the seventh book in the Content Advisory series.  They are stand alones, but I highly suggest you read all the others because we get a backstory on Apollo and we see what happened to Tavi.  It will break your heart.  But you will love the whole series.

Apollo has been on a mission to take down everyone that had a hand in hurting Tavi.  That's why he's in politics now.  

But Weber now needs him back home with the club.  

He spots Dru right away, but she pays him no mind.

At first.

What these two go through together is, I really don't have any words for it.  

I absolutely love them both.

It was awesome to see Sam from Freebirds series.

And this does set up the next series.  And boy I'm excited and here for it!

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Chasing Love by Piper Rayne

Chasing Love by Piper Rayne is now live! It was over between Bennett Owens and me—until I had no place to go but back to Willowbrook. Seven years ago, he walked away, and I built a new life for myself, swearing never to look back. But when my husband is arrested, that life collapses, leaving my daughter and me with nothing but a three-month plan to return to the small ranch town before disappearing again. Bennett’s a single dad now. Our girls become inseparable on sight, making it impossible to keep him at arm’s length. Especially when I end up working alongside him, where every glance chips away at the walls I’ve built. The years apart haven’t dulled the pull between us. Bennett remains protective and patient, determined to prove that we deserve a second chance. But he has no idea about the secret I’ve kept since the day he left. Because once he learns the truth, he may never forgive me. And like it or not, we’ll be bound together forever—by the daughter he never knew was his.

Tonya's Review 5 Stars This is the fifth book in the Plain Daisy Ranch series.  They are stand alones,  but I have loved each book.  This is more of a third chance at love story. High school sweethearts first, then a re-kindled love that just doesn't fully  happen.  Then seven years later. I love both Delaney and Bennett.  Both are now single parents to seven year  old girls.  And let me tell you, both girls are amazing.   But there are secrets that both Delaney and Bennet have.   Delaney's is a huge one that can make, or break their relationship.   I loved reading about these two.   I can't wait for the next book in the series.

 

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Texts From My Exes by Rachel Van Dyken

TEXTS FROM MY EXES

Rachel Van Dyken

Release Date: September 15

Available in Kindle Unlimited

“𝑭𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒆𝒙 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒚…𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒍 𝒎𝒚 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒅 𝒗𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕.”

Some people scrapbook.

I screenshot my exes’ texts.

What started as me venting my dating disasters online (creative outlet, don’t judge) has turned into a blog with actual followers—and the only thing keeping me in my dirt-cheap apartment. My grandmother-slash-landlord insists I “prove my creativity” to stay, so the blog lives on.

Except now my readers want a happy ending. With an ex.

Problem? None of my exes qualify.

So…I invent one. The perfect guy. The one that got away.

Rule #1: Never roast your exes online if they know how to read.

Rule #2: Definitely don’t make up a fake ex-boyfriend just to keep your rent low.

Rule #3: do not—under any circumstances—let your best friend discover the lie.

Because now he’s volunteered to become my fake perfect ex. And the more we fake it, the more I can’t tell if my readers are the only ones falling for the story.

Turns out, the biggest plot twist of all?

I might have been in love with him the whole time.

5 Stars

This is yet another hilariously great read by Rachel Van Dyken.  This is a standalone.

This is Harper and Ezra's story.  They are best friends, but both of them have more than friends feelings for each other.  But neither will cross that line. 

What started as a TikTok campaign for Harper, had her "finding the one that stayed" and was right in front of her eyes the entire time.

The texts that start each chapter will have you laughing out loud.  Reading those has me even more grateful I've been married for 20 years and don't have to deal with dating!

I love how this worked out for them.

And OMG grandma Blue!  I absolutely love her!  I want more with her!

Genre: Mafia Romance

Tropes: Mistaken Identity

Cinnamon Roll Hero/He Falls First

Release Date: September 9, 2025

BLURB

From the moment Creole Williams met Audric Ingram, they were inseparable.

But not the way one would think.

They shared a best friend.

What they did not do, however, was like each other.

You could say that it was a war to win the best friend title.

The only problem was, their best friend would never choose a clear winner. So they spent their teenage years fighting it out. What Audric didn’t know, though, was that Creole was desperately in love with him.

The same went for Audric. He wanted Creole more than his next breath.

But it was never the right time.

Then life happened, and it kicked them both in the teeth.

One second they’re acting, and the next the anger is real, and neither one of them can stand to be near the other.

For years, they fight it out, one-upping each other to the point where neither one of them can be in the same room with each other without things going to hell.

Then one day their best friend dies, and they have to figure out a way to live without her.

There’s no fighting anymore, at least verbally. Physically, however? They let their bodies duke it out the fun way.

But in the end, neither one of them wins.

5 Stars

This is the fifth book in the Content Advisory series.  This is the Truth Tellers MC.

Just a warning, this story may have some triggers.  Suicide attempt, rape, and stalking.

This is Audric and Croele's story.  

They were best friends in highschool...until they weren't anymore.  This book will tell their full story.

You'll see what happened once the truth is out.  All their old feelings come back.  The hate is gone. 

These two don't have an easy road.  That's for sure.  

Creole is such a strong woman.  What she went though, man.  I couldn't even imagine.

They've both been through a lot.  

I loved what happened with Gunner. 

I can't wait for more!

"I apologize when I'm wrong.  What I don't do is apologize when I'm provoked.  You lit the match, you deal with the fire."

**REVIEW TOUR** The House Guest by Penelope Ward

Title: The House Guest

Author: Penelope Ward

Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance

Tropes: Billionaire Hero/Roommates/Twist

Slow Burn/Angsty/Opposites Attract

Release Date: August 31, 2025

BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE contemporary romance…

The last thing Dorian Vanderbilt expected was to find me painting in my crop top when he returned to the mansion he hadn’t inhabited in years.

He was understandably surprised I’d turned his living room into an art space.

Life is certainly full of surprises, though, but not always in a good way.

I learned that lesson when my aunt and the billionaire she married died unexpectedly while traveling.

I’d been living with them, and just like that, my life was turned on its axis.

Unsure of what was next, I stayed alone at the barren estate figuring out my next move.

That was when Dorian—the late billionaire’s only son—showed up.

I’d never met Dorian Vanderbilt. He’d been living on the other side of the country.

But now, he was home, left to pick up the pieces of his father’s legacy.

Not only was Dorian devastatingly handsome and mysterious, but he was the sole heir to the Vanderbilt fortune.

He didn’t seem to like me—at first. We were total opposites. But I was grateful that at least he didn’t kick me out.

We stayed out of each other’s way for the most part, save for some late-night kitchen run-ins or unexpected bonding sessions in the home theater.

Over time, though, we grew closer. Turned out, our chemistry was pretty combustible.

I was falling in love with him.

Until everything I thought I knew turned upside down yet again.

And fate left me pining for the one man I’d ever loved.

This is another great stand alone from Penelope Ward.

This story will have you laughing and then sitting at the edge of your seat wondering what decisions will be made.

Dorian and Primrose could not be more opposite of each other.  But that's what makes them perfect for each other.

Dorian is the billionaire and Primrose is the free spirit art student.  

I wasn't expecting the twists and turns with this read.

I honestly didn't know what Primrose would decide to do.

This is a great read.  Perfect amount of laughs, love, chemistry, and suspense.
