AN ALL-NEW STANDALONE FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR JULIA KENT

I’m not too proud to admit that finding Mr. Right involves swiping right. Right? Welcome to dating in avocado toastland.

Here I am, on my first blind date, ever, courtesy of a smartphone app and my two annoying best friends.

So what is Chris “Fletch” Fletcher doing, walking across the room, looking at his phone like he’s pattern matching a picture to find a real person he’s never met before?

Oh.

Oh, no.

The guy I drop-kicked in seventh grade cannot be my blind date. The guy who earned me this infernal nickname.

That’s right.

Feisty.

More from New York Times bestselling author Julia Kent as Fiona “Feisty” Gaskill gets her chance at love - drop-kick included.

PAPERBACK

Excerpt

“Fletch,” I start, walking into my office, waving him on. As we pass by the children, they snicker and whisper, the girls more stirred up than the boys. We reach the office, I close the door, and ask, “Why are you here?”

“I came to see you because I knew this was your lunch break and you've been ignoring my texts and calls.”

“Maybe I need some space.”

“I respect that.”

“Clearly, you don't.”

“Look, Fiona, I'm not here to argue with you. Or to crowd you or upset you. The opposite, actually. I realized our wires have been crossed and it was better to just come to you, face to face, and say what needs to be said.”

“You couldn't wait until I wasn't working?”

“If you'd answer my texts and calls, I could.”

“Fair enough. What do you want to say? What needs to be said?”

“I would like to ask you out on a date.”

“A date?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Because I like you.”

“That's it?”

“Isn't that enough?”

“After seventeen years of teasing me, of that stupid nickname following me around like a poltergeist, now you suddenly decide that because I saved your nephew you want to date me?”

“It's not like that.”

“Then what is it like?”

“I don't know. Let me find out what it's like by spending time with you. Let's both find out what the other is really like. Do we have to define this? Let's explore it.” He grins. “Let's explore each other.”

“I think you're trauma bonding with me and getting that confused with having feelings for me.”

“Trauma bonding?”

“We went through something emotionally intense together. You helped me. I saved your nephew. But that doesn't mean we should date.”

“That's not why I'm asking you out.”

“Is it because we kissed?”

“That's not why, but it certainly adds to all the reasons why.”

Title: Paine

Series: Rosewood High #2

Author: Tracy Lorraine

Genre: YA/NA High School Bully Romance
Cover Photo: Michelle Lancaster

Model: Lochie Carey
Release Date: February 20, 2020

Blurb

She was my best friend. The person I told my deepest secrets to. But when my world came crashing down, it was all because of her family.

From that moment, I realized I’d been wrong to trust her. Her big caring eyes and sweet face were nothing but an act as she’d watched on while I tried to keep my head above water.

That was our past.

Now, I’ve largely put Camila behind me and moved on with my life. Though it doesn’t explain why she’s always there: taunting me, tempting me, showing me the life I could have been living.

I should have been laughing when her own world turned upside down. Karma always wins out in the end. But suddenly we’re forced together once again and I have no choice but to remember the girl I’ve tried so hard to forget.

Blurb

Dear Letter Girl, I need to see you. When can we meet?

Her response never came. My secret pen pal with a dirty mind has ghosted me. I've roped Jules, my sweet as pie next door neighbor, to help me track her down.

There's only one problem—I'm falling for her. The tortoise shell glasses, out of this world curves and delicious treats are making the search for The Letter Girl even harder.

My notes were supposed to be a one time thing. A little too much wine and naughty thoughts on a winter's night. I never thought Berk would write back. I wanted to tell him it was me, but the fear of rejection kept my lips sealed.

Now he’s enlisted my help to track down The Letter Girl and our search has him hot on my, ahem, her trail.

She's the girl next door.

He's my secret pen pal.

Truth is on a collision course with their hearts and it’s only a matter of time before one of them gets wrecked...

Excerpt

A giddy laugh bubbled up from deep down. I snuck a glance at myself in the mirror again. I was a lumpy diva, but, fuck it, I was a badass, too. And I was slowly skidding closer to the ground as the sweat that gathered behind my knee loosened my grip.

Every move I nailed got me a little closer to appreciating how far I’d come. From the first days of slipping off trying to do a basic spin with my feet planted firmly on the floor, to being a diva. This was my freaking body and I loved the shit out of it.

And if I kept telling myself that, maybe one day I’d believe it.

I lowered myself onto my bedroom floor with a flourish, throwing in one more spin for my imaginary audience.

The song ended and I braced my hands on my hips, panting and sweating like I’d run a 5k, with a grin so damn wide I felt it in my toes. Jumping up and down, I gave myself a high five and a few club-worthy woos. It made it harder to figure out if I was doing the tricks one hundred percent correctly, but I sure as hell wasn’t going to record myself to watch later or head to a pole dancing studio with full-wall mirrors. I wasn’t at that level of okay with me in all my glory—yet.

I flopped onto my bed and stared up at the ceiling. My hip-hugging short shorts and sports bra gave me little coverage, but pole dancing wasn’t exactly about modesty. I’d given it a try at the urging of my therapist during freshman year and hell if it hadn’t helped—some. It was a way for me to build strength, body confidence, and maybe attempt to feel a little sexy.

The door slammed downstairs and I shot up from the bed.

“Jules!” Berk’s unmistakable call sent me from pole dancing heart racing to ‘floor it, Louise,’ careening toward a cliff. I shot up and fell off my bed, rattling the perfume bottles on my dresser. Scrambling off the floor, I grabbed my sweatpants and tugged them on, hopping from foot to foot and sounding like I’d taken up bowling in my bedroom. I snagged my glasses off my desk and shoved them onto my face.

Berk was probably wondering how I’d trapped a wild animal up in my room. I grabbed my long sleeved T-shirt and hoodie off the back of my chair even though it was August. The fabric clung to my sweaty skin and I probably had a sweat-stashe going on, but that was better than him walking up here and finding me half naked. A panic spiral shot through me and I got dressed even quicker and threw open my door.

My feet barely touched any of the steps as I flew downstairs.

“Berk.” I fell into the kitchen, bracing my arm against the doorway. The butterflies in my stomach were replaced by a whole freaking safari. I tightened my lips to what I hoped was a non-serial killer level of smile. My heart was glowing like a spotlight, so I wrapped my arms tighter around myself. Tingles tiptoed up and down my spine at the sight of his floppy hair and jeans that hugged his ass and trim waist better than mine ever fit me.

His head shot up and the half of the cookie sticking out of his mouth broke off and dropped onto the counter. “There you are.” His words were muffled behind two manhole cover-sized cookies.

“Did you think I was hiding in my cookie box?”

“Is that what you’re calling it these days?” Killer smile and a direct hit. “The old cookie box.”

REVIEW

This was an amazing story. Jules is a sweet shy young woman. She is really amazing but she has insecurities especially about her weight. Berk is her next door neighbor whom she has a huge crush on. One day she bravely decides to leave him a secret note what she wants him to do to her. However he has no clue who it is. Berk is curious to find out his mystery note writer is but has no clue. He enlist Jules to help him not knowing it is her.

I thought the story was so fun and interesting. Different in so many ways which made the story more interesting and enjoyable. I thought Jules & Berk  were a great duo.

Title: Ace of Hearts

Series: Game of Love #1

Author: Khardine Gray

Genre: Contemporary Romance/Romantic Suspense

Blurb

She was the innocent I was meant to resist, but she feels like my last chance at redemption.

She’s the beautiful fiery angel.
You look at her and you forget… everything.
Past, present and future. You just forget.

I’ve been called many things in my life.
Marine, agent, hacker, thief, killer…
Now I’m a fraud.
I’m here for one single reason – to steal from her father, the Vegas Mafia King.
Eliminate him if I need to.
Greedy mobster…he got caught up in something above him and dragged her in too.

I dropped my guard and got lost in her.
Mind, body, and soul.

The angel drew me in at hello.
With a body made for serious sinning, Jia Marchesi reminded me of what I wanted and never had.
I want her to be mine.
But… the more I dig the more secrets I find.
The more I realize what’s going on is above me too.
Danger and death are on the horizon.

Sorry, Bellezza. You got dealt a cruel hand.
I should have stayed away from you...
You were my big mistake. I was always a threat.
In the end, there’s no way this will end well.
Not for me
Nor for you.

Please note Ace of Hearts is book 1 in the Game of Love series. This book ends with a Cliffhanger. Xander and Jia's story continues in Tease of Spades and Queen of his Heart.

Review

Xander Cage is on a mission of revenge. He wants to avenge the death of the woman he loves. He wants Giovanni Marchesi. Then he comes upon Jia Marchesi the daughter of his enemy. But Jia is sweet & innocent.

This story was amazing. Forbidden love, vengeance, revenge makes for one heck of a story. I highly recommend.

Title: Tease of Spades

Series: Game of Love #2

Author: Khardine Gray

Genre: Contemporary Romance/Romantic Suspense

Blurb

I wasn’t sure which was worse.
Being with her or being without her.
Both seemed to carry its own weight of grief.
Maybe it would have been better to just leave, get out of her life and she’d never see me again.
I’d shared several moments with this woman I shouldn’t have had.

She’d looked desperate to me. I just didn’t know at the time what the desperate was.
The desperation was to be saved.
Freedom.
People like that were best left alone if you couldn’t help them.
Not only had I potentially blown the mission, but I’d made her life worse just for being with her.
Now all hell was breaking loose.
My enemy has returned and he knows she’s my weakness.
It’s only a matter of time before heads will roll.

Please note Tease of Spades is book 2 in the Game of Love series. This book ends with a Cliffhanger. Pretty please read the books in order for your enjoyment of this series. Xander and Jia's story continues in Queen of his Heart.
                                             REVIEW
This is book 2 in the Game of Love series. More Jia & more Xander. Yes please. Their story continues with Xander still set out on a mission to destroy his enemy only this time Jia becomes a target and he must do what he can to keep her safe.

Title: Queen of His Heart

Series: Game of Love #3

Author: Khardine Gray

Genre: Contemporary Romance/Romantic Suspense

Blurb

Better to be on the right hand of the devil than in his path.

I stole the mafia princess and lost her all in one breath.

She was the innocent in the mix.

I broke every rule in the book with her.

I didn’t just involve her in a top-secret mission, I got involved with her.

It made me reckless and I slipped up.

I had to make the deal with the devil if I wanted a chance to get her back.

Death and danger are on the horizon.

Jia belongs to me and I won’t allow her to die.

Please note Queen of His Heart is book 3 in the Game of Love series. This book is the continuation of Xander and Jia's story. Pretty please read the books in order for your enjoyment of this series.

REVIEW

This is the third installment of Game of Love and this one is epic. Lies, deception finally come out and Xander has lost his Jia. He must do things he never thought he would do to save her and have a happy life with her. This story was epic. Xander & Jia were amazing but I would also like to point out surrounding characters that I also thought brought so much value to the story. A great story of two lovers who are brought together by vengeance that fought through everything to have the love they both deserve. Well done!
