About the book
She thought she knew her husband. She was wrong.
Twenty-eight days ago, my life was perfect. A husband who still made me laugh, two beautiful kids, and a gorgeous house in Savannah that felt like forever.
Two days later, he was gone...swallowed by the water while our children watched.
Everyone calls it a tragic accident. But accidents don’t leave notes from other women in their pockets. They don’t carve question marks into your soul.
And they don’t bring his other wife to your door.
I’m trying to move on. To hold it together for my kids. To bury the choices I made the night before he disappeared—the ones I can’t let anyone discover. But when a private investigator shows up with questions I can’t answer and eyes that see too much, I’m caught between attraction and suspicion...between the truth he’s chasing and the secrets I can’t afford to share.
Because as the lies surface, I’m realizing the wife, the mother, the safe version of me is almost gone. And what’s left might be far more dangerous than anyone expects.
Mira Shaw delivers obsession, betrayal, and dangerous attraction in Almost Gone—book one of a gripping psychological thriller series that will haunt fans of Verity and The Housemaid. Join the Final Chapter Book Club...but beware: the truth is murky, the water is deep, and secrets refuse to drown.

What starts as a practical arrangement turns messy fast when fake dating begins to expose very real want.
Faking Ms. Right
Romance · Contemporary Romance · RomCom
Our take
What starts as a practical arrangement turns messy fast when fake dating begins to expose very real want. In Faking Ms. Right, Everly Dalton agrees to pose as her billionaire boss’s live-in girlfriend, expecting clear boundaries and easy rules. Instead, forced proximity, blurred roles, and growing attraction turn this romantic comedy into a sharp, steamy fake relationship story with heart.
Choose your retailer
About the book
“When I kissed you last night, I wasn’t pretending.”
Everly Dalton is a walking, talking, martini-drinking dating disaster. Forget kissing frogs. She can’t even get past the first date. But at work, she’s a badass—the longest-running assistant billionaire Shepherd Calloway has ever had. Her coworkers wonder how she handles the big bad wolf—and never gets bit.
Shepherd Calloway isn’t interested in being anyone’s sugar daddy. Tired of women who only want him for his money, he swears off dating, determined to focus on running his empire. Until his gold-digging ex hits him where it hurts, putting him in a difficult position.
His solution—to have Everly pose as his live-in girlfriend—is obviously crazy. But the timing is uncanny. It just so happens Everly needs a favor from her boss—a big and awkward one—and this could ensure everyone gets what they want.
Besides, Everly can totally survive a few months of faux romance. Except there’s a problem. Shepherd is supposed to be a single-minded, unemotional robot boss. Not an actual human with a heart and morning wood. Between the awkward bed-sharing and tingly fake dates, lines are blurring. And as Everly gets to know the real Shepherd, she discovers there’s more to the man behind the bank account.
And faking it gets all too real.

“Whip smart and hilarious! Pucci is well on her way to literary domination.” —Abby Jimenez, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Just for the Summer.
USA Today bestselling author Trilina Pucci cranks up the heat in this sexy slasher filled with dark family secrets, classic horror tropes, and banter as sharp as a deranged killer’s knife.
Love is patient.
Love is kind.
Love will stab you from behind.
It’s Halloween night, and out-of-work writer Goldie Monroe’s trip to the drugstore scares up more than the fake blood she’s looking for. It leads to the man of her naughtiest dreams. And in spite of her costume, sparks fly from the moment they meet.
Noah Adler, aspiring sneaker designer, is impossibly gorgeous—like a tatted-up version of Goldie’s favorite blue-eyed vampire. He’s there for candy, but it’s Goldie he can’t resist. When she invites him to her sister’s F/X company bash, he’s all in without a second thought.
The pair’s flirty connection heats up fast, carrying them to electrifying new heights. But after Goldie discovers Noah is hiding a dark secret, it all starts to crumble. Looking for answers about her own past awakens new dangers, and when Goldie and Noah land at a slasher camp for adults, a deadly tragedy threatens to repeat itself. If they can survive this one killer night, they can definitely slay a happily ever after.

A man who has spent his life fixing other people’s problems begins to want something he never believed he could keep.
Out Of A Fix
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Contemporary Romance · Gay Romance
Our take
A man who has spent his life fixing other people’s problems begins to want something he never believed he could keep. In Out Of A Fix, Nash Miller steps in to protect a struggling family and finds himself drawn not only to their wounded stability but to the father waiting at the center of it. A warm, emotional romance built on caretaking, trust, and the hope of lasting love.
Choose your retailer
About the book
If you put a family back together, how can you ever leave them?
Through the years, Nash Miller has watched all his buddies fall in love and get married. It was romantic, and he’d wondered when he himself would find the one. Now, older, wiser, he realizes that what he’s always wanted—a husband and a family—just isn’t in the cards for him. And that’s all right. He has wonderful friends, a good life, and he gets to help people, which has always been his true calling. So when the time comes to protect a family in a tiny town in Washington State, he’s more than willing to get on his white horse and ride.
The family needs a bodyguard, but it goes beyond that. The mother abandoned them for a new life, and the father is absent, stuck on a work project he took on to keep his family afloat. What Nash finds are three kids in need of a fixer, and lucky for them, that’s exactly what he does. Providing support and structure is second nature to him, and he’s on solid ground, confident…until their father, Luke Duchesne, gets home. He’s nothing like Nash assumed he’d be, and with each passing day, the lure of the man, and his great kids, gets harder to resist. But he can’t stay there. He’s a fixer, after all, and what they’re all feeling is simply gratitude. Isn’t it…? Though when Luke kisses him, it starts to feel like so much more. Nash hopes he’ll be able to explore a life with Luke—he just needs to make sure his own isn’t cut short.

Off Balance
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Erotica · Gay Romance · Sports Romance
Our take
Desire hits hardest when it unsettles everything a person thought they understood about themselves. In Off Balance, a boxer fighting for a comeback and a younger ballet dancer pulled thin by pressure and control find unexpected comfort in each other, even as the connection between them turns impossible to ignore.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Younger. Forbidden. Distracting. Male. And on cusp of the comeback fight of a lifetime, Domenick Conner can’t get Cameron Stevens out of his head.
A decade after a brutal head injury took him out of a successful career in boxing, Domenick Connor moves home to train with his brother for a very public comeback. When Cameron Stevens dances into his life, Dom doesn’t understand the intense and undeniable pull to the much younger man. The desire knocks him off kilter and throws everything he’s ever known about himself into question. But that doesn’t stop Dom from watching, coveting, craving him…
Cameron Stevens is a perfectionist, fiercely dedicated to his craft, and already overwhelmed with the pressures of pleasing his overbearing boyfriend and boss. But when his new stepfather asks him to teach his brother ballet to help with balance and footwork for an upcoming boxing match, he can’t help but agree. The gruff boxer comforts and encourages him in a way that he’s never experienced before, and it draws him in like a moth to a flame.
As the unlikely pair navigate their intense chemistry, Cameron and Dom must decide whether to continue fighting the attraction between them, or fight for love instead.

Save Your Breath
Romance · Sports Romance
Our take
Trapped between old feelings and public fallout, a fake engagement starts to feel dangerously real. In Save Your Breath, a pop star and an NHL bad boy turn damage control into something far messier as history, desire, and forced proximity push them past the boundaries of friendship.

About the book
THIS JUST IN: HOCKEY BAD BOY AND POP STAR EXTRAORDINAIRE ENGAGED!
That was the headline we'd wanted. If only I’d known the cost to get it.
Aleksander Suter has been my best friend since high school—and the only man who’s ever been able to truly get under my skin. With his reputation for trouble and a smirk that could melt ice, he’s also the NHL’s favorite bad boy.
When my publicist’s plan to fix my image collides with his need to clean up his own, we find ourselves in a fake engagement that feels too real from the start.
Now, I’m releasing my new album, putting on a show for the paparazzi I usually try to dodge, and falling too fast for a man who never falls for anyone. Every stolen glance, every heated touch blurs the lines between us until I’m wondering where the lies end and the truth begins.
And when a hurricane traps us together in his high-rise condo, all my carefully built walls collapse, and resisting the pull between us becomes a losing game.
Suddenly, the stakes are higher than just headlines, and the risks feel more personal than ever.
But as our past resurfaces and old feelings reignite, I realize the biggest risk isn’t losing my career—it’s losing my heart to the one person I thought would never be mine.

Closeness becomes its own kind of pressure when attraction keeps getting tangled with fear and restraint.
Season’s Change
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Gay Romance · Sports Romance
Our take
Closeness becomes its own kind of pressure when attraction keeps getting tangled with fear and restraint. In Season’s Change, a veteran player trying to rebuild his career is forced into constant proximity with the upbeat rookie roommate he cannot stop wanting. This hockey romance pairs grumpy-sunshine chemistry with emotional vulnerability, slow-burn tension, and a relationship that asks both men to rethink what comes next.
Choose your retailer
About the book
"This is hockey romance for hockey fans." --Rachel Reid, author of the Game Changers series
A veteran hockey player and a rookie can't get away from each other—or their own desires—in this sexy, heartfelt opposites-attract hockey romance.
Olly Järvinen has a long way to go. He’s got a fresh start playing for a new team, but getting his hockey career back on track is going to take more than a change of scenery. He’s got to shut his past out and focus. On the game, not on his rookie roommate and his annoyingly sunny disposition—and annoyingly distracting good looks.
All Benji Bryzinski ever wanted was to play in the big leagues, and he’s not going to waste one single second of his rookie season. Yoga, kale smoothies and guided meditation help keep his head in the game. But his roommate keeps knocking him off track. Maybe it’s just that Olly is a grumpy bastard. Or maybe it’s something else, something Benji doesn’t have a name for yet.
Olly and Benji spend all their time together—on the ice, in the locker room, in their apartment—and ignoring their unspoken feelings isn’t making them go away. Acting on attraction is one thing, but turning a season’s fling into forever would mean facing the past—and redefining the future.

Torn
Romance · College Romance · New Adult
Our take
What begins as lifelong devotion turns complicated when love crosses a line neither of them can ignore. Torn follows a young woman and her father’s best friend as friendship shifts into forbidden desire, forcing them to confront loyalty, guilt, and the cost of wanting the wrong person. This is an angsty contemporary romance built on emotional intimacy, slow-burning tension, and painful restraint.
Choose your retailer
About the book
"Well-written tension and forbidden longing. The angst in this was incredible! Loved every second!"
—Penelope Douglas, New York Times bestselling author of Credence
When I was five years old, I told Toren Grace we were going to get married someday. He’d been my closest friend, my protector, and my rock since the day I was born. But during my senior year, our relationship slowly changed. Silly conversations morphed into serious heart-to-hearts. Innocent friendship turned to stolen glances.
Then one day, an unexpected kiss changed everything.
While that kiss was all I’d ever dreamed of, it knocked Tor clear off his axis. His strong moral compass makes it impossible for him to accept our feelings for each other. Because, not only am I eighteen and fifteen years younger than him, I’m the one person he should never, ever want.
Tor is my father’s best friend—my pseudo uncle.
Neither one of us can stand to betray or hurt my dad, but we can’t keep our relationship hidden forever. Will there be a way for us to find our happily-ever-after? Or will we all be torn apart?

About the book
Two rivals. One law internship. A whole lot of objectionable activity.
It wasn’t always this way between us.
We were best friends growing up.
Competitive? Yeah.
Ruthless? Definitely.
Neither of us liked to lose.

That’s new.
The hatred in his eyes?
That’s new, too.
I should let it go.
There’s too much bad blood between our families. Between us.
But I can’t.
I don’t think he can, either.
Now we’re gunning for the same internship.
If he thinks I’ll back down, he’s dead wrong.
Once upon a time, I lost everything.
I won’t let it happen again.
Go ahead. Try me.

Our take
Irritation starts to feel dangerous when it gives way to something harder to deny.

About the book
Catching feelings was never part of the plan.
Taking in Kason Fuller as roommate is meant to be a favor; one I regret immediately.
The bumbling, virgin football player drives me to the brink of sanity, stealing my food, my sleep, my peace and solitude.
My solution? Call a ceasefire.
Get him out on dates and out of my hair.
Yet as our truce shifts, I realize there’s a depth to this connection unlike any I’ve felt before.
It turns out, I don’t mind his presence.
I crave it, along with every morsel I learn about him.
But falling for the guy from the wrong side of the tracks wasn’t in the cards.
And I’m not the only one who thinks so.
Now, I’m at a crossroads between the life I thought I’d have, or risking everything to catch him.
*Fair Catch is the third in a five book standalone college sports romance series featuring one extremely *frustrated* virgin, flirtatious roomie dates, and a not-so-sanitary use of butter that will have you clutching your pearls. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age.*

Jealousy is easy to dismiss until it starts looking too much like the truth.
Caught Stealing
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · College Romance · Gay Romance · New Adult · Sports Romance
Our take
Jealousy is easy to dismiss until it starts looking too much like the truth. In Caught Stealing, a fiercely protective friend tries to keep a notorious campus playboy away, only to get pulled into a charged game of pranks, rivalry, and attraction that keeps turning personal. This new adult sports romance builds on buried feelings, loyalty, and slow-burning tension with a playful but emotionally risky edge.

About the book
It's not stealing if he's meant to be mine.
Let me tell you how Holden Sykes operates.
As the campus playboy and one-and-done king, he doesn’t do strings.
Or repeats.
Or names, for that matter.
So when he tries making my best friend the next notch on his bedpost, I react poorly.
Some would call it jealousy or an unrequited crush, but friends protect each other from making mistakes.
The same ones I’ve already made.
Which is why driving Holden away seems like my only option.
Too bad he’s not giving up without a fight.
Each prank leads to another until he turns this into a game far more precarious than intended.
One filled with stolen moments and heated glances, drawing me into his orbit.
But the undeniable attraction simmering between us leaves me caught in the crosshairs of an impossible decision.
Loyalty...or love.
*Caught Stealing is the second in a five book standalone college sports romance series featuring a road-tripping rubber ducky, two guys fighting for the upper hand, and enough cock-blocking shenanigans to make your cheeks flush. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age*
