New Release: TWENTY SECONDS TO LOVE HIM by Haleigh Falcon

TWENTY SECONDS TO LOVE HIM

Haleigh Falcon

Release Date: March 15 

Meet Haleigh Falcon:

Haleigh Falcon grew up in the Northeast, spending almost 20 years living in Maryland before putting down roots farther South. While she calls Maryland home, she now lives with her wife and adorable fur/feather babies in North Carolina.

Haleigh writes romance novels, the majority of which are queer romance, exploring the beautiful, messy, and intricate ways love shows up in our lives. While her favorite tropes to write about are found family, bi-awakenings, and hurt/comfort, she loves creating characters who are just trying to figure things out like the rest of us. At her core, she wants her stories to feel real, to make readers feel seen and maybe a little less alone.

Bodie

Bryce has been my constant for as long as I can remember. He’s my best friend. That's all. When my girlfriend breaks up with me, claiming I'm in love with him, I panic at first. Bryce reasons with me and we both laugh it off—until I can't any longer. The lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur, and suddenly everything feels different. As he pushes back for the sake of saving our friendship, I’m left wondering—what if I miss out on what we could’ve become?

Bryce

Bodie has always been my anchor in a way no one else ever was. When things shift between us, fear makes me hesitant. I’m not sure risking our friendship is worth exploring this any further. Choosing him in ways I never have before may destroy me if I ruin it. I have truths I keep buried, secrets that still own too much of me. As we step into something new and uncharted, things become clearer—until the universe decides to test us. Can our love withstand what tries to break us apart?

Bodie and Bryce have been an inseparable duo since their primary school days, crafting a bond that many envy. While Bodie has been committed to the same girlfriend since high school, Bryce, a carefree barman, has danced through a series of short-lived relationships, never quite finding the spark.

 Their friendship is a refuge; they rely on each other for guidance and comfort, feeling incomplete when apart. However, when Bodie’s girlfriend candidly suggests that he loves Bryce more than her, it sends him into deep reflection. 

Taking a step back, Bodie begins to reevaluate everything he thought he knew about his feelings and his friendship with Bryce. 

This marks the beginning of an unexpected journey, one that could forever change their lives... and their relationship.

New Release: ONLY FOR HIM by Natasha Madison

 ONLY FOR HIM

Natasha Madison

Release Date: March 13

Meet Natasha Madison:

When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

Nothing could prepare them for what was to come.

Kylie

I learned early in life that love isn’t just given, it’s earned.

Now I’ve decided love isn’t worth it.

At least that type of love.

Until him.

He was broken.

It was safe.

But then I went and did the unexpected. 

I fell in love with him, knowing he would never love me back.

Knox

I thought I had it all.

I was playing hockey in the NHL.

Three beautiful kids and a wife who loved me.

Until I walked in on her in bed with my brother-in-law.

Everything I thought I had was a lie.

She was everything I thought I didn’t want, and when I least expected it.

I just hope when I finally figure it out, I haven’t lost her for good.

Only for Him is a truly emotional at times read!

Im really not sure how to convey how much this story really tugged at my heart strings!

It is Kylie and Knox’s book and they both have certain turmoil in their lives, especially after the interesting way they meet! 

Knox is an amazing single dad who has a lot on his plate especially with being a professional hockey player! Needless to say when he meets Kylie, his teammates sister, she certainly makes an impression on him.

I loved her snark and sass, but with the way she grew up and not being good at relationships, creates frustration. 

Is there hope for a relationship between these two? Or does the past rear its ugly head and make Kylie question life?

Read it, its a fantastic story and I can’t wait to hear who will be next in the series!

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and being in the hospital with stitches in my head and no way out makes me pretty desperate. So I log in to a dating app, searching for a guy willing to pretend to be my boyfriend so I can bust out of this overpriced nightmare.

But what do I get?

Accused of being a prostitute. Talk about a waste of phone minutes.

With plan A a no-go, I move on to plan B. Escape. Except, on my way to freedom, I’m nearly pummeled by a man wearing all black and with the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen.

When he pretends to be my boyfriend, I’m shook. And even more shook when I discover this is the rude guy from the app.

Turns out he’s not only rude but bossy, irritable, and he keeps calling me a walking hazard. I go along with the lie anyway, thinking I can ditch him as soon as I’m free.

Except that doesn’t happen.

I end up back at his place, eating soup and trying hard not to catch feelings.

Then my apartment is broken into, and I’m running for my life, confused, injured, and with nowhere else to go. Kieran vows to keep me safe, something he seems more than capable of…

Which is kinda odd for a real estate agent, right?

As the threat to my life intensifies, I start to wonder if I’ll make it to my next birthday and, more importantly, if trusting Kieran is the deadliest hazard of all.

Haz is pure chaos, Kieran is broody perfection, the chemistry is criminal, and I’m officially obsessed 😍 

Walking disaster Haz and broody, controlling hitman Kieran could not be more opposite… and it’s absolute perfection.

This book had me laughing out loud so many times thanks to the incredible banter. Haz is chaotic, Kieran is intense, and the chemistry between them is off the charts. They’re completely obsessed with each other and so ridiculously needy in the best way.

Hilarious, addictive, and extremely well written. I loved every character — but Ghost and Rett definitely need their own book.

The way the story begins is so unique that I was hooked from the very first page.

New Release: WHISKEY FLIRT by Walker Rose

WHISKEY FLIRT

Walker Rose

Release Date: March 13 

Meet Walker Rose:

Thanks for joining me for a cocktail and some girl talk. I live the dream in my own slice of paradise where I get to enjoy colorful sunsets from my rocking chair while I’m working. I have my very own romance hero with Mr. Rose and there’s more than a few little rose buds running around. A couple aren’t so little anymore! We keep things interesting with cats and a dog and the critters that roam though the yard (fingers crossed the mountain lions stay away).

I returned to Huckleberry Springs to start over with my name on a bakery and my past sealed up tighter than a mason jar. I plan to run my business, keep my history to myself, and ignore handsome flirts like local distillery owner and rancher, Cruz Foster.

Cruz might make me forget how to frost a cookie, but I’ve been taken in by guys like him before. When he turns up the charm, I punch his efforts down like a first proof of sourdough.

He backs off but continues being sweet. My car dies, and he’s there. I need a ride, and he’s there. I want to tell him that I miss the whiskey flirt with the lopsided smile, and he’s there with a sizzling kiss.

The real Cruz is even better than the one he shows everyone else. I fall harder for the guy who loves his family, works hard, and shares his troubled childhood with me. A man who fixes himself is my weakness

But secrets like mine don’t stay buried in small towns. If I don’t want Cruz sinking to the bottom with me faster than blueberries in cake batter, I need to break my heart and go back to minding my own business.

Cruz, part owner of a whisky distillery, has long harbored a crush on Elodie, the town’s talented baker. But Elodie remains guarded and resistant to Cruz’s obvious adoration.

Both carry wounds from their pasts, making it difficult to move forward. Cruz may have a reputation as a flirt, but beneath the charm his heart is genuine and steadfast.

Elodie, however, is still wrestling with painful memories she keeps tightly locked away. Though Cruz longs to support her, she continually pushes him aside—until the day she finally allows him to see the truth behind her walls and lets him in.
