Sweet, steamy, and full of heart. I loved Jude, Sam, and Forest together—their personalities and histories fit so well, and their relationship grew in such a natural, satisfying way. Jude was the soft heart, Sam was figuring out his future, and Forest rounded out their little trio perfectly.

Their personal growth, farm life moments, and fun side characters made this a really enjoyable read. A lovely small-town romance.

Release Promo - Fallen Gods by Rachel Van Dyken

 

FALLEN GODS

Rachel Van Dyken

Release Date: December 2

They said the Gods were myth. That the Giants were only stories told around dying fires. They lied.

The Gods aren’t dead—they’re only sleeping, locked in mortal bodies, scattered across the world, waiting for the right spark to wake them. And my father is the most ruthless of them all.

He raised me to obey. To bleed. To be his blade when the time came. Now he’s sending me to Endir University, a place filled with ancient bloodlines and deadly secrets, to steal back Mjolnir, the hammer of legend. If I fail, everyone I love dies.

But Aric Erikson wasn’t part of the plan. He’s the enemy’s heir. Distant. Dangerous. And…the one person I can’t afford to fall for. He’s closed himself off completely behind a wall of ice, but the more I’m ordered to unravel him, the harder it becomes to remember where the lies end and I begin.

There's only a mission I never chose—and a man I was never meant to love—standing between me and a war that will decide the fate of the world.

But if I’m the spark, maybe he’s the fuse. And the Gods? They’re about to wake up angry.

RELEASE BLITZ - MistleFoe by Cambria Hebert

 



Title: MistleFoe
A Frenemies to Lovers MM Holiday Romance
Author: Cambria Hebert
Genre: MM Romance
Tropes: Frenemies to Lovers/Small Town
Holiday Romance/Forced Proximity/Opposites Attract
Release Date: December 1, 2025


BLURB

‘Tis the season for twinkling lights, cookies, joy, and a little sprinkle of mom guilt on the side. Did I say little? I mean an entire sleigh full. Which is exactly why I’m on my way home to Winterbury for the holidays, something my parents have been pleading for since I left the small-town life for a view of the city nearly ten years ago.

It’s not that I don’t come home to visit. I do.

Just not at Christmas.

The last time I was there, I got wrapped up in the romantasy of the town’s mistletoe legend, and it ruined my entire life. Okay, maybe not my entire life, but it did turn my best friend into my biggest enemy.

And maybe gave me a raging case of mistletoe PTSD.

Don’t laugh. It’s a thing.

Which is exactly why I’m going to do everything possible to avoid the raising of the mistletoe, Archer Hodge, and his Christmas tree farm. I’m just going to help my father out with the family animal clinic and mind my own business.

So of course Archer walks right into the clinic and nearly runs me over with his clompy boots, pine-scented flannel, and trademark scowl. Turns out, even after ten years, he still plucks every last nerve in my body. It doesn’t matter that he looks better than I remember and he’s cradling a beautiful dog who steals my heart.

Archer is my sworn frenemy, and no amount of forced proximity, small-town tradition, or mistletoe magic will ever change that.

Or so I thought…

This was such an endearing holiday read—light, fun, and full of Hallmark spirit , and the Christmas romance gives you all the feels.

It’s a small-town second-chance story featuring two men who can’t stop sniping at each other, a town that fully believes in mistletoe magic, and a dog who might be the smartest of them all.

All of that adds up to a cozy, relaxing read that’s perfect for boosting your holiday spirit.
See you in Winterbury, Vermont.

Blog Tour: Thorns of Deceit by Eva Winners

 

   

  THORNS OF DECEIT BY EVA WINNERS   
  Release date: November 24th   
  Genre/Tropes: Mafia Romance / Second Chance / Forced Proximity / Sassy FMC / Morally Gray MMC / Romantic Suspense / Age gap   
  Book 7 of the Thorns of OmertĂ  Series     
   THORNS OF DECEIT by Eva Winners is NOW LIVE! Make sure to grab this all-new dark mafia romance TODAY!   
   NOW AVAILABLE! https://amzn.to/478XE9s       


        

   BLURB  
  An innocent witness to brutality. A twisted and deviant plan. Two lives forever scarred. Aiden Callahan was a lethal, disarmingly beautiful man. A mobster forged in blood, betrayal, and sin. Worst of all… he was my husband. Five years ago, I did something unforgivable. Now, my past has come to collect its debt. I told myself I did what I had to in order to survive. That he wouldn’t hurt me. That carrying his heir made me untouchable. I was wrong. The man I ran from no longer exists, and I’m no longer the woman he married. His demons raged, loud and unforgiving. Mine refused to bow. Together, we were chaos. Beautiful and deadly chaos.     

    





Thorns of Deceit is book seven in the Thorns of OmertĂ  series and is the story of Raven and Aiden Callahan. 

It can be read as a standalone but there is a lot of carry over from other books. 

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book as it’s a bit different with the tie in of the Irish mafia. The Callahan brothers are something else and their banter was hysterical at points. 

Raven finds herself thrown into the world of the Irish mafia after stumbling onto a particular intense interrogation at the strip club where she waitresses. Of course, being the mafia there’s only two choices the Callahans come up with; either kill Raven or she has to marry Aiden. 

Raven has had a hard upbringing where her Mom would have them move every couple of years and refused to tell Raven why. Raven never knew her father but always knew that he wasn’t any good, according to her mother. But now that she’s been pretty much thrown into a marriage she can’t move away again, when her mother demands it. 

This book had me intrigued from the very start. The twists and turns that Eva Winners is known for are definitely front and center and I LOVED it! So much mystery and not knowing where the story was going to take you next. 

Aiden’s character definitely kept my attention as he’s not your typical mafioso. He goes into this forged marriage with a different mindset than one would think. I actually found myself really liking his character. 

I honestly can’t wait to read about the other brothers’ stories when they come out!

RELEASE BOOST - Burning for Alexander by Lucy Lennox

 



Title: Burning for Alexander
Series: Made Marian Legacy #2
Author: Lucy Lennox
Genre: Gay Romance
Tropes: Grumpy/Sunshine, Small Town
Firefighter/Firebug, Enemies to Lovers, Age Gap
Release Date: November 18, 2025


BLURB

I came to Legacy for a fresh start—to outrun my past and forget the anonymous man I fell for online.

But now all I see is Alex Marian.
The bane of my existence. Firebug. Reckless bar owner. Walking disaster.

It doesn’t matter that he’s the sexiest man alive. Or charming. Or kind.

He’s entitled, spoiled, rich, naive—everything I hate.

He’s also young and untouched—not that it’s any of my business.

The townspeople say he’s the sunshine to my grump.
What they don’t know is that worrying about him keeps me up at night.

He's the match, and I'm the gasoline—and the way he looks at me says he knows exactly what kind of fire we'd make together.

But Alex Marian might just be worth the burn.

I kept stopping after each chapter to reflect on their journey and experiences together.. 

I didn’t want this story to end as it’s just so amazingly good. 


Alex, who owns the local bar Timber, somehow always gets under Fire Chief Judd Kincaid’s skin, and their banter  is perfect . Beneath the teasing and irritation, the tension between them simmers in the best way.


The story is emotional, funny, and full of great chemistry, and the ending was absolutely perfect. A fantastic read.

A fabulous 5 star read ..
