Our take
Lucky Shot begins with a rewrite deadline and a research trip that turns personal fast.

About the book
Six weeks.
That’s how long my editor gave me to change my book from a baseball romance to one about hockey. A complete re-write. Which is how I find myself in Montana, a thousand miles from home, researching hockey, and preparing to meet a local expert.
There’s one small problem. Or rather a big one.
A big, grumpy problem.
My expert is none other than Nick Galaxy - the single dad and hockey captain I ran into minutes after landing in Montana and made a… well let’s just say I didn’t make the best first impression. Neither did he for that matter.
Deciphering his grunts will be nearly as hard as re-writing the entire book.
No matter, I’m up for the challenge.
Oh and there’s one other teeny, tiny thing. Minuscule really.
He has no idea that his dad has volunteered him to help or offered to let me stay in his guest cabin.
Tropes: grumpy/sunshine, single dad, hockey, forced proximity, and found family

Because of what I am, everyone hates me. Humans and supernaturals alike.

So the owner makes me his.

This place is supposed to be paradise… but it's starting to look like I'm not going to make it out of here alive.

Success feels secure until the past arrives with unfinished feelings.
One Last Run
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Lesbian Romance
Our take
Success feels secure until the past arrives with unfinished feelings. In One Last Run, a driven neonatologist and a restless world traveler reunite at a college ski trip fifteen years after a brief but unforgettable fling. Sharing close quarters in Telluride, they confront buried truths, diverging futures, and the possibility that timing, not love, was always their greatest obstacle in this sapphic second chance romance.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Danica Wendell seems to have it all figured out. She’s a respected neonatologist at one of the finest hospitals in the nation, engaged to the man of her dreams, and living a life that most only dream about. Well, one of those things is true. The other? Well, that's her secret to keep for now.
Petra “Pete” Pancott isn’t settling for an average life. She’s globe-trotted, embraced every thrill, and carved out a career that’s on her own terms. Sure, sometimes she daydreams of a future with a family and a home, but who needs roots when you’re flying through life?
When their college friends throw a reunion ski trip in Telluride, Colorado, both women jump at the chance to hit the slopes and reconnect after fifteen years. But as they share a luxurious condo and spend the week together, it becomes clear that everyone has secrets they aren't revealing. More than that, Pete and Danica are finding they can’t avoid the avalanche of unresolved feelings that loom between them after their not-so-casual-after-all fling back in college.
They say opposites attract, but no one ever warned them that navigating the steep terrain of their past would be anything but a slippery slope. Will they finally find common ground, or will this resurgence of emotion leave them lost in a snowstorm of chaos?

LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Bisexual Romance · Gay Romance · Sports Romance
Our take
Academic pressure and athletic rivalry collide when two rowing teammates who cannot stand each other strike a risky deal. In See You at the Finish Line, George needs help to pass his exams, and Lucas wants lessons in confidence to win over his crush.

Choose your retailer
About the book
“Filled to the brim with smart wit and delicious tension, See You at the Finish Line is a must read!” —Hannah Bonam-Young, USA Today bestselling author of Out on a Limb
“If you thought the only thing Red, White and Royal Blue was missing was some strenuous activity, Zac Hammett’s delicious debut is your new favorite romance.” —Justinian Huang, author of Lucky Seed
Heartthrob George wants to prove he's smart enough to graduate. Nerdy Lucas wants to finally ask his crush out. They strike a deal to get what they want . . . but they may accidentally splash into a row-mance together in this queer, sports rom-com, perfect for fans of Heated Rivalry.
George and Lucas can’t stand each other—which makes it very awkward being on the same Cambridge University rowing team. The uber-charming, all-American George got accepted at Cambridge for his sporting prowess, not his subpar grades. Economics whizz and sarcasm expert Lucas, meanwhile, works hard for everything he’s got, which sadly does not include a boyfriend.
When the news leaks that George receives academic preferential treatment—Cambridge couldn’t lose their star athlete, after all—he’s told he must actually study this year to pass his exams. That’s when he zeroes in on Lucas for help. Lucas agrees, but on one condition: George will teach Lucas his lothario ways so he can finally seduce his long-time crush, Amir.
But soon they're in way over their heads, seducing and cheating their way to what they want. As they face rivals within their own squad and cutthroat competitors at Oxford, they find themselves unexpectedly becoming closer. What happens when your worst enemy may just be who you needed all along?

Our take
Safety comes at a cost when the world has already ended. In Protected, a young woman joins a band of scavengers to survive a ruined landscape, finding unexpected shelter in the quiet vigilance of a man who rarely speaks but never leaves her unguarded.

About the book
Two years after the world fell apart, I'm entirely alone, a twenty-four-year-old woman scrounging for food and barely surviving. My only choice left is to hook up with a group of roaming scavengers. They're not good people, but it's safer with them than on my own.
Deck immediately makes himself my silent protector. He never speaks, but he doesn't have to. He keeps me alive, and I try to communicate with him. We eventually learn to trust each other.
The world after Impact is rawer and bleaker than what it used to be, and we've lost most of what made life worth living. But maybe we haven't lost everything.
Maybe love still lurks in the ruins.

Protection and obsession blur when the person watching from across the street may not be the hero he believes himself to be.

About the book
ZANE
Is it wrong that I watch him?
Leif Anderson seems like a friendly, kind, normal, boy-next-door type.
Unlike me.
His stalker, a creep who moved into the place next to his parents' house to keep an eye on him.
I'm not the bad guy, though.
I'm the one who will protect him.
The cops don't believe he's in danger.
Maybe they're right, and this is all in my messed-up head.
I've been wrong before.
And no matter how I justify this to myself, my motives aren't entirely pure.
It's impossible to watch a guy this hot walking around in those adorable beanies without getting a little turned on.
When he discovers my secret surveillance, I'm sure it's over.
No way he believes my reasons for watching him, but he doesn't report me for my crime.
He's curious about me in a way I don't expect from a straight guy.
Or as I quickly learn, maybe not so straight.
Before I know it, we're on a journey, exploring this wild, exciting part of Leif while I try to keep him safe from harm.
But the closer we get to one another, the more I wonder: what if it was all in my head?
What if no one's coming for him?
What if the real threat to Leif is me, the guy next door?

Choose your retailer
About the book
She’s my first love. She’s also my father’s mistress’s daughter.
I’m Duke Wilder, and this is my story.
I left Wildflower Canyon and Wilder Ranch ten years ago away from my father and Elena—the girl I loved before I found out she was the daughter of my father’s mistress.
Now my father is gone, and he’s left the ranch to me. I come back ready to sell it off piece by piece, to destroy his so-called legacy, and finally get revenge on the land that failed my mother.
But coming back to the Colorado ranch country feels like stepping into a part of myself I’ve tried to forget. The wide-open skies, the mountains, the horses—it’s all still in my blood. And so is Elena, no matter that I’ve brought my girlfriend with me.
Elena never left the ranch. Even after her mother passed, she stayed, caring for my father until the end. They call her the horse whisperer, and it’s easy to see why. She’s incredible at what she does.
I should hate her. But I can’t. The fire we had all those years ago never died. Being near her feels like standing too close to the sun—and it burns just the way I like it.
I try to fight how I feel for her, but I give up when I realize that I want more than revenge. I want Elena. I want the ranch. But after everything that’s happened, she doesn’t trust me. Maybe she never will.

Don't miss this hilarious small town rom-com from million-copy bestselling author Portia MacIntosh!
Thirty-one-year-old matchmaker Lola James had it all – until she broke her leg at a wedding and discovered that her so-called ‘best friend’ was suddenly too busy to call, her flat had far too many steps, and her boyfriend replaced her quicker than you can say ‘crutches’.
Now back at her parents’ B&B, sleeping in the living room (she can’t get upstairs) and having her hair washed by her mum (she can’t get in the shower), Lola is only too pleased to run into gorgeous Dr Will, an old friend who has definitely improved with age. Then there's Dean, a charming divorcé convinced he’s better off alone.
Can Lola mend her heart and help Dean find love? Sometimes, everything needs to go wrong to go right …
