 Southern Sinner by Jessica Peterson is now live! 

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Until I brought my fake girlfriend home.

When I took a seat next to the gorgeous brunette at the blackjack table, I had no idea it would be the start of the hottest weekend of my life. By day, Stevie and I dominate the casinos of Sin City.

By night, I dominate her in my penthouse suite.

Then my brother Samuel ruins it by asking me to come home for his engagement party.

Because he’s not just getting married. This isn’t a normal celebration for me. His future bride is my ‘one who got away.’ The girl I may or may not still be in love with.

The catch? He wants me to prove I’m over his fiancée before they set a date. So I ask Stevie to double down on our chemistry and pretend to be my girlfriend.

We set our ground rules: lots of sex, plenty of pretend smiles, and no strings.

But we’re not only gambling with the truth. We’re gambling with our hearts.

They say every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. But Stevie’s past may force us to fold on our future before it’s even begun.

SOUTHERN SINNER is a full-length, standalone novel in the North Carolina Highlands Series. Coming April 22 to KindleUnlimited!

 The Freshman by Monica Murphy is now live! 

New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy kicks off her new College Years series with a forbidden romance between two people who are undeniably drawn to each other…

I started flirting with a guy while waiting for my car to be serviced. Now granted, he wasn’t just any guy. Tall. Dark. Hot. Mysterious. Can you blame me for wanting to talk to him? He’s in town visiting his parents. So am I. He goes to the same college as I do. Such a coincidence. Almost as if our meeting is destined…

But I shouldn’t believe in that sort of thing. I am single as a Pringle and always ready to mingle. Until I keep running into Mr. Tall, Dark and Mysterious everywhere I go. Tony Sorrento. Turns out he’s on the football team. I mean, I’m not one to chase after a sexy jock but, okay. I’m down. And did I mention he’s only a freshman?

Our fathers are business rivals, and they forbid us from dating. We need to keep this on the low. Can we remain friendly? Sure. Maybe turn our friendship into friends with benefits? Most definitely. Here’s the thing though. I didn’t plan on catching feelings for him so quickly. Seems like he’s falling pretty hard for me too.

Defying our fathers’ wishes is only asking for trouble, but is being with Tony worth the risk?

BLURB:

Is it an accidental pregnancy, if it’s purposefully planned?

Autumn Kulis wants a baby. It’s that simple and that complicated because one thing stands in her way – she doesn’t have a man in her life. And at almost forty, she isn’t getting any younger. On a two-week trip to her brother’s lakeside cottage, a plan forms. Make a list of three men. Sleep with each of them. Allow nature to take its course. Only, a certain someone gets in her way.

Logan Anders goes with the flow of life. Divorced, single dad, he works hard, and occasionally plays harder. When his college roommate invites him to Lakeside Cottage for two weeks, he hadn’t remembered his best friend’s little sister being so hot. Nor was he a fan of her plan to find a baby daddy. He’s determined to make her list then tear it to shreds leaving him the only man horizontal with her.

When we were forty, we had so much life to live, and a simple proposition could be the start of a second chance at really living.

Excerpt:

He shifts a bit more on the couch until he fishes out an ice cube from between his thighs, then holds it up like evidence. He looks at me blankly, I look back at him, but when our eyes meet this time there’s another undefinable but powerful charge between us. A force that pushes and pulls.

I draw my gaze as slow as a touch from his face to his arm, to the twisting muscles of his forearm, and then the wet ice cube held in his square fingers.

I can’t fight it anymore. This is more than horniness. More than simple attraction. It feels wrong to be this close but still not touching him. The real sin is pretending I can resist.

The knot inside of me is as tight as it’ll go. Something has to give.

Blurb:

Why, yes, I am a doctor. Want me to kiss it better?

It’s always been an unacknowledged perk of the MD behind my name that it’s also a kitty magnet. I’ve got my pick of the litter. I only have one rule, and that’s to keep dating and work in different sandboxes. I learned that lesson the hard way once, and I wouldn’t have made it through med school if I needed to be told twice.

But everything about Mia makes me dumb.

Everything about the hot, bookish gynecologist makes me think NSFW thoughts that just won’t quit.

I try throwing myself into my work. Playing as much pickup soccer as I can handle. But it isn’t long before I’m breaking all my rules to get just one more taste of Mia.

We’re headed for a reckoning.

I’m about to earn a new degree: in love.

BLURB:

There’s no faking it in love or hockey…

Transferring to a new school under false pretenses is harder than I expected, especially when my cocky new housemate, Callan Thomas, annoys me at every pass. He’s treated like a god and revered by everyone on campus. Too bad he made me feel like a rejected fool the first night we met.

But that doesn’t stop me from accepting his offer to become his fake girlfriend, because he has skills that I need. Only Callan can help me improve my game and make the USA women’s hockey team.

I try to keep despising him, but he keeps proving my first impression was wrong. And the more time I spend with him, the more complex my feelings become. I need to tell him the truth about who I really am before anyone finds out and things go too far.

Problem is, I think they already have…

She needs Prince Farming . . . but she got me instead.

Sure, life’s been easy for me. Growing up in an oceanside house in SoCal, playing top-level college hockey, driving a luxury car with a generous allowance—sounds like the dream, right? Turns out what I didn’t have was freedom. And when I decided to transfer to Moo U for my last year of hockey, my controlling father cut me off. 

No money, no car, no friends. I’m just another student struggling to make ends meet. The only place I can afford to live is the Meyers’ farm, where I’ll work in exchange for room and board. Farm work is so exhausting that I don’t even have time to wallow in the crappy turn my life has taken. Zoe Meyers is a hot blonde Amazon with all the energy of a chipmunk on crack. And her positivity is making me realize how lucky I really am, even though I’m broke. Too bad she’s not impressed by a guy who can’t figure out which end of a goat to milk.

Because suddenly I want to impress her. I want to do a lot more with her too . . . if I can get her out of the barn and into my arms.

BLURB:

Winning games has always been his focus, but will winning her heart become the ultimate goal?

Everyone at Moo U knows the party doesn’t start until Paige Underwood arrives. Not only is she beautiful, she’s fun and charming too. Guys want to date her, and girls want to be her best friend. All Paige wants is to have a good time and make videos for her beauty channel–and maybe get that girl down the hall to do her eyeliner correctly. Is that too much to ask? 

According to her parents, yes. They’ve said the party’s over and that it’s time to get focused.

Spencer Briggs knows all about focus. He’s had one goal since he set foot on the ice as a kid: make it to the NHL. After years of hard work and endless practice, he’s the starting goalie for Moo U and mere steps away from his dream. He can’t afford distractions, and isn’t interested in relationships. And he definitely can’t afford to flirt back with the gorgeous girl in his lit class. 

He needs to stay serious. She needs to get serious. But now serious sparks are flying . . .

Overall Grade: 4.5 ⭐️

I’ve written this before about other books, and yet it characterizes K. Webster’s The Glass Slipper to a T. This book is a wild erotic roller-coaster ride to a happy ending. The obstacles that Winston Constantine and his Cinderelliott, Ash, must overcome are astonishing. From abusive step-brothers to overzealous enemy mafia business rivals to society at large, Winston and Ash must fight to find their happy ending. And, without giving you too much of the story, Winston and Ash definitely find their happy ending. I’m fairly certain that the epilogue is one of my favorite chapters in the Cinderella trilogy. 

Now, what is there to love about this book?

1. It’s steamy. Like 5 star steamy. 
2. Winston is insatiable in so many ways, and he’s guarded and egotistical, meaning that he undergoes a HUGE journey in this book. 
3. Ash is my hero. She is the ONLY one in Winston’s life who cares for him beyond measure AND she stands up to him which he needs. 
4. There is so much action in this book that you don’t get to breathe until the epilogue. 
5. Did I mention that it is steamy AF? Like really. 
6. Every one gets their comeuppance. Karma is a B!
7. The Constantines really do have hearts, and I think Perry Constantine is my favorite character because he’s kind of a combination of Winston and Ash. 
8. This book will tug at your heartstrings in ways that I don’t think the first two books of the trilogy do. This means you’ll probably find yourself more emotionally invested in The Glass Slipper over the first two. 
9. K. Webster writes stories that seem so unreal, yet real at the same time. There is pure entertainment value in The Glass Slipper, but there is also something more in this story about humanity and the need for balance in one’s life. Winston doesn’t have to only want world domination. Webster takes the span of three books to show us that work-life balance is actually better. And ultimately love can save even the staidest, buttoned-up, egotistical person. 

The Glass Slipper is the perfect ending to K. Webster’s Cinderella trilogy. Everything you want to happen happens, and Winston and Ash find their happy ending. Now…sorry…I need to go find Perry’s book. 

In love and romance,

Professor A

Blurb:

Betraying the most powerful man in New York wasn’t something I ever envisioned when I first started playing games with Winston Constantine. But he’s engaged in far more dangerous games than ours, and his enemies are out for blood.

Winston has my heart, the Morellis have incriminating photos, and I’m left with nothing except three stepbrothers who want to hurt me and a future in doubt. I knew Winston wouldn’t be my prince charming, but that didn’t stop me from falling for him.

After all, the slippers fit, and I let myself believe I’d be dancing with Winston forever.

Until too much truth comes to light.

Until I realize instead of ruling the board, I was just a pawn.

In the end, I have only one question. When his game with me is over, will I be able to pretend as if the glass slipper wasn’t a perfect fit?

Well…she did it. With the completion of Falling Into Love with You and her Hate-Love Duet, Lauren Rowe takes two characters who aren’t initially easy to like and makes them fated soulmates whose love is BIG. If you read Falling Out of Hate with You, then you know…Rowe’s hero and heroine, Savage and Laila, have had a bit of a fraught journey thus far. In fact, with my review of that book, I received a comment from a fellow reader who indicated they DNF at 32%. This reader thought the characters were, my words here, ridiculous. In other words, that reader had a difficult time caring about the characters because, at first glance, Savage and Laila are seemingly immature. Now, I can understand the reader’s disdain for the characters, but having read that book, 32% gives you nothing about the reality of the characters in this duet. In fact, Rowe is smart in her elaboration of their story that you know, in retrospect after finishing Falling Into Love with You, you are receiving the fake personas of Laila and Savage in much of that book. When you read Falling Out of Hate with You, there is a lot of discussion about the constructed “rock and roll” archetype. And I think Rowe, in all of her writing genius, offers up that “role” for both Laila and Savage in that book. As you work through that book, as I stated in my review for that book, there are deeper psychologies to Laila and Savage, and I intuited that those would be revealed in Falling Into Love with You. AND…I was correct. 

What does this do to the duet as a whole? Well, the second book proffers up more of the rockstar life while unraveling those carefully crafted rockstar personas, gifting Rowe’s readers with the “real” Laila and Savage. All of the misconceptions and misunderstandings are brilliantly and carefully undermined. Even more, Rowe sets about building more of her extended rockstar universe while dropping clues for readers to speculate about future stories in this world. And…she shows her flex at developing a well-developed romance between soulmates that melts your heart WHILE imagining this world fully. Since this duet is my FIRST Lauren Rowe set of books, let me just say right here and now: I am INCREDIBLY impressed with her insistence on developing the entire Savage and Laila world. It is astounding that she recognizes we live in a diverse multi-media world, and books can be more than simply words on the page. They can be images and songs and links to websites integrated directly into her stories. I mean…c’mon. Her stories have the actual songs of her artist characters. I can count on one hand the number of romance authors who integrate “more” into their books. Each time I encounter it, it impresses me because it’s another layer of creativity and craftsmanship that makes the reading experience enhanced. I have read many a romance where the author writes “a song” within the story, and I always want to hear the melody. That’s the part missing with these songs. Lauren Rowe is now only the second author who gifts us both the melody and lyrics in fully recorded songs. It’s astounding and “next level” for a story. 

Beyond that, if you struggled to like Laila and Savage in the first book, it is this book, Falling Into Love with You, where they will steal your heart. There is still so much chemistry and eroticism between the two of them in this book, but now, we are treated to their never-ending love. Don’t be like that reader who quit 30% of the way through the first book of Lauren Rowe’s Hate-Love duet. If you don’t make it to the final page, you will miss out on the unraveling of emotional walls and the vulnerability of two people falling deeply, madly, passionately in love with each other forever. 

In love and romance,

Professor A
