Arlowe 

“I think that there’s been some kind of mix up.” 

That’s my first clue that my stay in Lilac Harbor isn’t going to go according to plan. 

There’s been a mistake with my rental booking and now instead of having the charming little bungalow on the shore all to myself, I’ve got a not so charming roommate. 

Yates Warner. 

He’s a grump in every since of the word, but there’s something about the guarded translator that tugs at my heartstrings. 

I’m determined to make the best of this situation, and who knows? Maybe my grumpy giant and I can even be friends. 

Yates 

Yeah, we’re definitely never going to be friends. 

Arlowe Mitchell is too sweet for a grouchy loner like me. She’s too friendly, too generous, and way too optimistic. 

Also, incredibly too tempting. 

The more time that I spend with her, the more that I want her. 

When she tells me about the newest book her book club is reading and says how she always wanted to have a summer fling like the characters, I finally get my opening. 

A four-week fling. No strings attached and we part at the end of the month to go our separate ways. The only rule we have is to not get attached. 

I thought that it would be a piece of cake to follow it but the more time I spend around my new roomie, the more I realize that I’m in real trouble of breaking our one and only rule.

They say he who dares wins…

Luke Kessler is known for his daring play on the field and his carefully scripted life off it. The Growlers’ wide receiver has a strict rule of dating one carefully chosen woman per season, then letting her down gently. After all, his game is football, not love. That is until his dopey mutt falls for a French bulldog owned by a hot mess of a woman whose sassy mouth and mind-blowing curves have him fumbling his best laid plans.

After a humiliating concert performance played out in front of the world on social media, cellist Summer Pearson has sworn off a career in music. Forever. She’s hiding out with her grandparents in Milwaukee, licking her wounds and preparing for a predictable, if not boring, law career. The last person she needs challenging her life choices is a sexy, dog-rescuing jock who loves his grandma as much as he loves a good dare.

Especially when that same guy is dating her perfect cousin.

This fun, flirty sports romance delivers a happily ever after that will have you laughing, crying, sighing, and cheering in the endzone. One-click it now for doggy hijinks, senior citizens bent on shenanigans, sexy ax-throwing, locker room bromance, steamy private cello performances, and all the feels as two people discover they are worthy of love.

Double Dog Dare is book 2 in the Milwaukee Growlers Football series but can be read as a standalone with no cliffhangers.

The Last One

A.S. Kelly

Publication date: July 25th 2022

Genres: Adult, Comedy, Contemporary, Romance

Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Anya O’Donnell, and I’d like to declare myself guilty beyond all reasonable doubt.

Guilty of what, you ask?

Well, for starters, I’m guilty of lying to everyone for years; of pretending when I should have been showing them all who I really was, what I really wanted. I’m guilty of pushing away the only person who wanted to stay, convinced that, one day, he’d have left, anyway.

I told him we were a mistake.

I told him I was better off without him.

I told him that I didn’t love him.

And now I miss him. I miss his cups of tea and his stupid cheese crackers. I miss his clothes, strewn about the house. I miss the way he would watch me sleep. I miss his arms, holding me tightly each night, making me feel at home.

But now we’re both alone. And I’m scared.

I’m scared that he believed everything I told him; that he has no intention of coming back.

Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Owen McKenna, and I’m furious.

Why, you ask?

Well, because I decided to follow my heart and not my head. Because I didn’t listen to my friends or to their far-fetched theories. Because I left anyway – even when everyone was telling me to stay.

And now she doesn’t want me back. But I want her, desperately.

She’s the woman I’ve been waiting for. She’s incredibly sexy, and can make you laugh, even when you least want to. She’s never let anyone in, apart from me; and when she crumbles into my arms, it makes me feel like the only guy in the world.

But I ruined everything.

I let the L-word slip, and she panicked.

She told me things she didn’t even think – I know that. I know her.

I know that she’s scared, that she doesn’t want to take this risk. But I do. I’m ready.

I’m her exception.

I just need to make her see that, too.

The Paradise Plan

Elana Johnson

Contemporary Romance

Cassandra Haslam loves plans. Lunch plans, wedding plans, and floor plans—they all bring her joy. In fact, she's had her entire life planned out—career, marriage, and family—since age ten. She's smart, hard-working, and a real go-getter, and everything has fallen into place so far. 

Until her husband dies suddenly, right when she's about to enjoy the fruits of all of her hard work and planning, leaving Cass reeling and...well, without a plan. 

When her youngest graduates three months later, making her an empty-nester as well as a widow, Cass decides it's time to make a new plan for herself. 

It's not a back-up plan. 

It's a paradise plan. 

With one of her best friends now living in Hilton Head, Cass makes a move and purchases a piece of waterfront property on the island. It's the perfect place to build her paradisiacal life and her new self as she designs and constructs a beautiful beach house. 

But when she injures herself—not in the plan, by the way—she meets general-contractor-turned-doctor Harrison Tate. He helps her out of a jammed thumb, a sprained ankle, and a bruised ego. 

When he keeps showing up unannounced at her construction site, sometimes with her favorite pastries, Cass starts to wonder if she should add him to her daily routine... If she does, will her perfectly laid out plans fall short of paradise? Or could she find her new life and a new love, all without any plans at all?

Harrison pulled up to the appointed pick-up spot, easily spotting Grant and Bea—and a beautiful brunette. She stood taller than Bea by several inches, and she had the long limbs and grace of a woman who came from wealth.

Harrison tried not to judge her so quickly, because he’d heard Bea and Grant talk about her plenty. A widow for over a year now. Three kids. Parents and a sister in Texas. A golden retriever, whom he didn’t see. So she’d left him with someone, and Harrison found himself wondering who the lovely Cassandra Haslam might trust enough to leave her beloved pet with.

He came to a stop and immediately jumped out of his SUV. As he rounded the tailgate and came face-to-face with Cassandra, he drawled, “Hello,” his face feeling hotter than it should. He reached for her bag at the same time Grant did, and Harrison found himself wanting to swat his friend’s hand away.

He pulled, and Grant pulled, and the suitcase went nowhere. “Oof.” Grant stepped back, and Harrison still had a grip on the bag. It suddenly came in his direction, and he flinched away from it so he didn’t get hurt. He stumbled slightly, catching himself against the brake light, and the suitcase toppled to the ground.

“Sorry.” He hurried to retrieve it, then fumbled with the button to get the back hatch to lift. Grant stared at him as if he’d grown an extra eye, and Harrison’s whole body flamed with South Carolina heat as he hefted Cassandra’s bag into the back of the SUV.

“There’s another one, Harrison,” Bea said, and he bustled over to the sidewalk like he was Cassandra’s personal butler. He told himself to calm down. He shouldn’t be acting like an overeager dog to please this woman. 

If he was going to start dating again—which he wasn’t—he’d pick this woman, his brain shouted at him.

“Cass,” Bea said as he rolled the bag closer to the back of the vehicle. “This is Harrison Tate.” 

He grunted as he lifted this much bigger and much heavier bag into his car. He dusted his hands as he turned to face the pair of women. “Nice to meet you,” he said.

“Harrison,” Bea said. “This is Cassandra Haslam. My best friend in the whole world.” She linked her arm through Cass’s, and the two of them smiled at one another. 

Cass then faced him, her smile staying clipped in place. She had long eyelashes framing her dark eyes, and a maturity in her face that only came with age. Her teeth sat straight and white, and she gripped his hand firmly as they shook. “It’s great to meet you, Harrison,” she said. Even her voice painted pictures in his ears.

Pure adrenaline soared through him, and he couldn’t release her hand. She didn’t pull back either, and they stood there, looking at one another. He wasn’t sure if the charge filling him was adrenaline anymore, but perhaps…electricity.

“You can’t park here,” someone said, and Harrison startled. He pulled back and Cass did too.

“Yeah, we’re going,” he said. He glanced back to Cass, but she’d ducked her head and started to move around the corner of the SUV to get in.

Harrison did the same, berating himself for falling into some sort of trance. How old was he? Fifteen? 

Starstruck by a beautiful woman. He ground his teeth together and shook his head. “Don’t act like a fool,” he muttered to himself. Then he yanked open the door and got behind the wheel.

One Kind Hero (Heart of a Wounded Hero) by Christine DePetrillo - Release Blitz, Excerpt & Giveaway

One Kind Hero
by Christine DePetrillo
(Heart of a Wounded Hero)
Publication date: July 14th 2022
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

What do you do when your life plan goes up in flames?

Army sniper Reid Colborn has nothing left. His last mission was technically a success. Enemy hit. Boy rescued. Day saved. Getting trapped in a burning building, however, wasn’t part of the plan. Now Reid doesn’t have a steady shooting arm, and his military career is over. Heading back to his hometown of Maplehaven, Vermont is not the next target he’d hoped for, but he’s out of choices.

Until architect Valerie Bellerose gives him another option.

When Valerie sees Reid, every detail of their one night together as teens nearly ten years ago comes flooding back. Not that the memory had ever died. Reid had given her something that had made it impossible to forget him. Now that he’s back, can they have a second chance to hit their mark?

Is one kind hero high enough caliber to build the family they’ve always wanted?

One Kind Hero is a second-chance, small-town, steamy contemporary romance novella with a wounded military hero searching for what comes next after losing everything. For more romances set in Maplehaven, check out the One Kind Deed Series also by Christine DePetrillo.

The Heart of the Wounded Hero series was created to pay tribute to and raise awareness of our wounded heroes. Each of the over eighty authors involved have contributed time, money, and stories to the cause. These love stories are inspiring and uplifting, showing the sacrifice of our veterans but also giving them the happily ever after they deserve.

By increasing awareness through our books, we believe we can in a small part help the wounded heroes that have sacrificed so much. Thank you for reading.
