About the book
Moving to my fiance Adam's hometown was supposed to be an adventure, the beginning of our life together. Instead, I'm met by his unwelcoming family and an old friend who wants more than friendship from Adam.
Adam swears Millie is just a friend, like a little sister to him. That their feelings for each other are completely platonic.
I just wonder if she believes this.
To his family and friends, I'm the outsider standing in the way of Adam and Millie's destined love story.
And when Adam proves repeatedly that he will choose Millie over me? I decide to choose myself and leave.
There is nothing like hard work to distract you from a broken heart, and so I throw myself into fixing up my grandmother's derelict house and helping in my family's struggling restaurant.
But now Adam is back. And he says he's going to prove to me I'm the one he wants.
My aunt and uncle are clearly softening towards him. My cousin wants to help me hide his body.
He let me down once.
Dare I trust him with my heart again?

About the book
She spent a night with a monster. Then she saw his face…
In a world of orcs and men, artist Daisy Carlyle is about to lose her career, her relationship, and all her dreams. And when she seeks refuge in a deep cave, she just wants a moment alone to draw, to escape…
Until the cave collapses, and traps her inside.
With an orc.
There’s no way out, and now Daisy is stuck in a dark stone prison with a deadly, terrifying stranger. A stranger whose face she can’t see, and who only speaks in a deep, foreign growl.
But... she can understand the softness in his voice. The gentleness of his clawed hands as he comforts her. The strength of his lean body in the dark, tempting her into heated, dizzying dreams…
But then, morning comes. And in the light, Daisy finally sees the orc’s face.
He’s a wraith. A monster. A tall, gaunt, feral fiend, with shadows for eyes, and cryptic black marks scrawled all over his skin.
And even worse, he’s ruthless. Notorious. An outcast among even his own people. And now that he’s claimed Daisy in the dark, he has a cruel, devastating plan for her…
She’s going to be his. Forever.
A dark, angsty fantasy romance with an intense language barrier and a powerful, possessive orc.
Comes after The Widow and the Orcs, but also reads as a standalone. Happily ever after guaranteed.

Our take
Thirty-six-year-old rancher Hawthorne has never been with a man, but winning a contest to bring his favorite adult performer to his town’s first Pride Parade changes that.

About the book
Can an inexperienced cowboy wrangle the adult movie star of his dreams?
Hawthorne
I’ve lived in the same small town my entire life. And I like it, for the most part: being a rancher, taking care of my chickens, and even my meddlesome family. What I don’t like is the limited dating options. I’m gay, and at thirty-six-years-old, I’ve never been with a man.
When I enter a contest to win my favorite adult entertainer’s support for our town’s first Pride Parade, I never expect to win. And I definitely never expect to find myself in a friends-with-benefits relationship with the man.
The problem is I quickly realize I want more. But could someone as confident, sexy, and independent as Silver ever consider building a life with a simple cowboy like me?
Mateo
My work is my life. Filming under the moniker Silver, I’m happy enough. I’m making good money, I’m free from my crummy past, I’m well on my way to the career I actually dream about, and I’m not looking for any complications.
Enter Hawthorne Moore, with his sweet-as-molasses drawl, that adorable gap-toothed smile, and the beautiful way in which he begs, and suddenly, I find myself getting in too deep. And that’s a problem because I’ve spent years building up these walls around my heart, and I don’t know how to bust them down.
Can I work through my trauma and lasso myself a cowboy, or will I lose the only man who’s ever loved me?
Virgin Hearts is a friends-with-benefits-to-more romance that includes a flirty performer, risqué photoshoots amongst peeping bovines, an endearing cowboy whose cock (ahem, rooster) rises at dawn, dom/sub undertones, and one very HEA. It’s book 2 in the Plum Valley Cowboys series but can be read as a standalone.

About the book
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A woman is newly engaged to a man she adores when she receives a call from her first love with news that shatters her carefully ordered world, in this emotionally powerful novel from the author of All We Ever Wanted, The Lies That Bind, and The Summer Pact.
"Remember Sweet Home Alabama? Giffin has given us a modern Midwestern update of that classic story.”—The New York Times Book Review
Billie has built the perfect life. Her medical practice in New York City is thriving, and she’s finally found the right partner in Dean after years spent trying to move on from her high-school sweetheart, Mick. Their young love had been intense and true, but distance and ambition pulled them apart when she left Wisconsin for medical school.
Then one morning, just after she’s accepted Dean’s romantic marriage proposal, Billie’s phone rings. It’s Mick—calling for the first time in nearly a decade. His news is urgent and in a moment, everything changes.
As Billie boards a plane back to Wisconsin, her past comes rushing in—her hometown friendships, the love she and Mick shared, and the choices that shaped them all. What awaits her is a reckoning with what she’s lost, what she’s built, and what she still wants.
Gripping and deeply moving, Love You More is a story about the plot twists life throws at us—and how love, in all its forms, has the power to change everything.

About the book
Welcome to the family.
She’s been waiting for you…
When Anna arrives at her future mother-in-law's isolated estate, she's greeted with a distrustful smile. The house is freezing. The brother in the wheelchair watches her with desperate intensity. The teenage daughter hasn't spoken in years. And Eddie, the man she's about to marry, flinches every time his mother enters the room.
At first it feels like paranoia. But the longer Anna stays, the more she sees. And by the time she realizes what this family is hiding, the snow has sealed her in… and it's already too late to leave.

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING JACK REACHER SERIES • Jack Reacher and Sergeant Frances Neagley become the targets of a deadly conspiracy in this “action-packed thrill ride” (Chicago Sun-Times).
The inspiration for season two of the hit streaming series Reacher—and don’t miss the upcoming spinoff series Neagley!
“Electrifying . . . this series [is] utterly addictive.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

But Frances Neagley, a woman from his old military unit, has found him using a signal only the eight members of their elite team would know. Then she tells him a terrifying story about the brutal death of a man they both served with. Soon Reacher is reuniting with the survivors of his team, scrambling to unravel the sudden disappearance of two other comrades. But Reacher won’t give up—because in a world of bad luck and trouble, when someone targets Jack Reacher and his team, they’d better be ready for what comes right back at them.

The Arrangement

Our take
From USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author Adriana Locke, this spicy workplace romance follows a woman who convinces her billionaire boss, Jason Brewer, to marry her for six months while she struggles to pay bills and support her grandmother. But when Jason wants more than a business arrangement, their deal gets complicated. Best for readers who like age-gap romance, marriage of convenience, and protective heroes who fall first.

About the book
The gorgeous CEO of Brewer Air is my boss and, thanks to a bet, my new husband for six months.
Why? Because I begged.
I have a grandmother to support, a stack of bills higher than my five-foot frame, and as a cherry on top, I need to find a new place to live. Soon.
Sure, Jason Brewer’s bright green eyes and chiseled jawline steal my breath. His smirk makes me weak. The former military hero’s protective nature is as sexy as watching him control a boardroom or fly a plane.
But none of that matters. I’m desperate—not foolish. I know forever-level commitments aren’t real. This is simply a business transaction with a billionaire.
It’s too bad we didn’t consider all contingencies.
Our first kiss was to seal the deal. The second was in front of an Elvis impersonator. The third kiss led to a honeymoon that was so hot it burned into my memory.
I tell myself it’s okay because there’s an arrangement in place. It’s a—very—enjoyable means to a much-needed end. There’s nothing to worry about.
Except there is …
Jason is determined to prove that we could be more. When he proposes a new arrangement, it changes everything in ways I never saw coming.
From USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author Adriana Locke comes a new age-gap workplace romance featuring a former military hero who falls first and hard for his heroine. You will swoon over this spicy standalone romance.

About the book
"The successor to The Risen Empire is just as fine a rip-roaring space opera"—from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author (Booklist).
Captain Laurent Zai of the Imperial frigate Lynx is a walking dead man. Unjustly held responsible for the death of the Child Empress, sister of the immortal Emperor, Zai has been sent to fight an unwinnable battle. The Lynx must stop a vastly superior Rix ship from reaching the planet Legis, a suicide mission that will almost certainly end in oblivion for Captain Zai and his crew.
On the planet Legis below, a Rix compound mind—a massive emergent AI formed from every computer on the planet—has been isolated by their Imperial blockade. But the mind has guided a lone Rix commando, Herd, to the planet's frozen north, and will soon order a desperate attempt to seize a polar communications array and break the blockade.
Ten light-years away, Captain Zai's true love, the psychic (some say mad) Senator Nara Oxham is engaged in a deadly game of political intrigue. From her position on the Emperor's War Council, Senator Oxham must find a way to forestall the Emperor's final solution if the blockade is broken: a nuclear strike to destroy the compound mind, which will also kill millions of Imperial citizens. She suspects that the Emperor has a hidden weakness discovered by the mind, a secret so dangerous to his immortal dynasty that to prevent its discovery the Emperor is willing to countenance the ultimate crime . . .
The killing of worlds.

About the book
Mateo has survived his training so far. But it's far from over.
Having passed his initial assessment, Mateo has been assigned to learn the craft of the Dark Wing, the information gathering branch of the Iron Wing Army. But it quickly becomes apparent that Dark Wing does a lot more than gather information when he is sent to infiltrate an enemy city to pave the way for a surprise attack.
As Mateo’s personal power continues to grow he’ll learn that it takes a lot more than strength to navigate the complex web of intrigue between nations. Yet no matter how adept he becomes, it is impossible to avoid being drawn into the maelstrom that surrounds the ambitious imperial family, leaving Mateo with no choice but to commit himself to supporting the young Fifth Prince.
Together with his friends and his spirit bond, Corvus, Mateo will continue to uncover the truth about the world, the mysterious Solomon order, and the treacherous path his master planned for him.
