I haven’t seen him in over a decade, but Joshua Luca can still get to me. And I hate it.

At twenty-nine, I’m a doctor and I’ve travelled the world, but just the thought of him has me sliding my sweaty palms down my jeans and wishing I could steady my racing heartbeat.

Joshua was an almost obsession until, at seventeen, he cost me my future. In one night, I grew up and let go of my silly crush.

My infatuation for Joshua is dead and buried. Forever.

It doesn’t matter that he’s my new flat mate.

Or that he still has that same sexy smile.

I barely notice how that, despite his billions, he’s the kindest man I know.

Or that when he touches me, a thousand tiny fireworks explode all over my body.

I’m completely over Joshua Luca.

Title: Claimed by the Moon
Series: Royal Shifters #6
Author: L.P. Dover
Genre: Paranormal Romance/Suspense
Release Date: September 28, 2021


BLURB

Sexy wolves and heart-stopping action await in Claimed by the Moon, the highly-anticipated continuation of the Royal Shifters series by New York Times and USA Today best-selling author L.P. Dover!

In his 200 years of life, Zayne Lyall has made his share of enemies. The most ruthless of all being Knox Channon, who seeks vengeance for a pack war that took place over a hundred years ago.

To gain information he can use to bring Zayne down, Knox reconnects with Amelie Graye, a past love who joined the Royal pack Zayne belongs to. Unfortunately, Amelie doesn't know much about the royal arctic... despite a longing within her to be near him.

Amelie and Knox have a tumultuous past that ended after she and her family went rogue following an attack by the Sierra pack. While she has no details to offer about Zayne, Knox sniffing around her leaves his inner wolf snarling.

More than anything Zayne wants to charge in and protect the woman his heart aches for. But he has a secret... and it could cost him everything. Amelie is his fated mate. If Knox were to discover this, he would know hurting her would be the key to destroying Zayne. Torn between his desire to claim Amelie as his own and his ferocious passion to protect her, can Zayne find a way to bring down his malicious enemy? Or will an age old vendetta rob him of a blissful future with his bonded mate?



REVIEW

Zayne & Amelie...
Zayne is a great man & Amelie is a compassionate loyal woman. Zayne has a very protective alpha side and I loved that about him. Amelie is reluctant because she has been through so much. These two are so good for one another. They bring out so much happiness and passion . This was a hit for me!

EXCERPT

The door to the cabin opens, and Amelie steps out with her caramel-colored hair in a ponytail and dressed in a tank top and yoga pants. It’s fifteen degrees outside, but the cold doesn’t bother us. The smell of snow approaches, and I can tell it’s going to come down hard within the hour. Looking up at the sky, it’s dark, and the clouds are thick.
Amelie plugs in the Christmas lights on her porch and looks up at them when she gets into the yard. I’ve never seen someone so fascinated with the holidays. But she’d be appalled if she could see my house at Christmas time. I’ve never cared about decorating or celebrating, at least not in the last thirty years after losing Alina. Something tells me I might have to change that. If this is going to work between us, I’ll have no choice but to see things differently. The only problem is that I have no idea how to do that.
Amelie runs through the woods in human form, and I follow behind her, making sure to keep my presence hidden. I’m not ready for her to know I’m there yet. The lake is a few miles into the woods, and her movements are smooth and concise as she swerves in and out of the trees. The only other people I’ve seen move like that are my brothers. She had to have learned it from Micah. I’ve envied him for being so close to her. It’s even made me a little jealous, but I know he’s never tried anything with her. When he comes back to town, things might be a little different. I’m hoping Amelie will let me train her instead of him.
The lake comes into view, and I slow my pace. Amelie stops by the water and blows out a breath, watching the steam billow into the wind. She raises her arms in the air and stretches, exposing her bare stomach as her shirt lifts up. The need in me rises, and I close my eyes. All I can think about is taking her in my arms and making her mine.
“Fuck,” I hiss under my breath. My cock hardens at the thought of her naked and spread out beneath me. Stepping behind the tree, I lean against it to regain my composure. I’m always in control, but around Amelie, I’ve lost all sense of it. Taking a deep breath, I let it out slow until everything goes back to normal. When it does, I unleash my power so Amelie can sense me.

EXCERPT

I turn to see Natasha standing in the doorway. She’s still in that fucking dress. The one that shows every single curve of her lithe body. It makes her look like a grown-up, someone I could do all the dirty things I frequently imagine doing to her.
“Get out.” I seriously cannot deal with her. I’m not ready. I need more information. I need to get behind a fucking computer!
She doesn’t listen, though. She comes in, drifting ever closer, close enough for me to catch her ginger-peach scent. The one that seems to match her the red glints in her coppery hair.
“I’m sick over what I did. What a mess I made of things. I... um… I’ve been trying to figure out why I wasn’t upfront about bringing Alex to the game.”
I grind my molars and finally lift my icy gaze to hers. I even go so far as to take a few menacing steps in her direction.
She registers the threat, backing up toward the wall. I want to kick my own ass for scaring her, but pushing her away—keeping myself shut off from her allure—is imperative. I can’t let myself soften toward her. She’s already the hugest liability possible.
“Honestly?” Her fingers tangle together at her waist; she’s doing that fidgety thing she does when she’s nervous. “I think I was trying to get a rise out of you.”
My brain scrambles in disbelief.
Natasha is not the manipulative type. At least, I didn’t think so. She’s sweet and honest and giving.
“I hoped you’d be jealous and finally make a move.”
I’m suffocating suddenly by the friction of her words ricocheting inside my body. She hoped I’d...be jealous. And make a fucking move.
I close the distance between us, my hand grasping her throat as I push her up against the wall. Her eyes widen, but I don’t have time to watch them dilate because my mouth crashes down on hers, taking everything I’ve wanted all these torturous months. It’s a brutal kiss. A punishment for all the agony she’s put me through. For what she’s still doing to me.
I lick between her lips to lash her with my tongue. I let my teeth scrape her lips, I suck her tongue into my mouth. She gives it back with passion. So much more eagerness than I expect or deserve.
Well, hell. My cock swells against my zipper. My kiss grows more feral.
She reaches for my dick, giving the hardened outline against my jeans a squeeze. I catch her wrist and spin her to face the wall, punishing her with a sharp smack to her ass.

The Preacher's Daughter Duet
Author: Melissa Adams
Genre: New Adult Romance
Tropes: Enemies to Lovers/Reverse Harem



THE PACT

The unfuckable Preacher’s daughter.
Four devastatingly handsome windsurfing champions.
And the game that changed their lives forever.

Back in school Ausra was forced to act the good girl, with her conservative clothes and her head always down. Everyone laughed at her, even the four popular brothers. She hated them for it.

But high school is over, and when they meet again, a lot of things have changed including Ausra . The brothers hardly recognize her and they love a challenge.
The rules are simple: their plaything needs to know what she’s in for and needs to agree to play.
Will this transformed preacher’s daughter be up for it? And what happens when more than bodies are in play?

Do Ausra and the 4 beach gods stand a chance at love or will the reach of her father, the preacher, taint and destroy everything?

Warning: this book is part of a duet and ends in a cliffhanger. This is a why choose story where the heroine won’t have to choose between her different love interests and has sexual scenes, swearing and mild violence. Suitable only for readers aged 18+

REVIEW
This was one interesting storyline. I thought it was naughty, fresh, & fun. The characters were great and brought the drama & excitement.
This is a new author for me and I look forward to reading more! Can't wait!


TWISTED SINNERS

I’m The Preacher’s Daughter and they’re four beach gods. My windsurfing champions.
Our game was supposed to have no strings attached but against all odds—I care.

We’re all new at relationships and my father and his church aren’t the only thing threatening to tear us apart. Secrets and rivalries, old and new, are driving a wedge between us, but staying together isn’t only what we want—it’s what we need.

Dad is determined to bring me back into the fold, where women are seen as nothing more than men’s property, and I’m determined to be free. Will I be able to save myself and the men who own my heart?

Warning: this book is the conclusion of a duet and ends in a HEA.
*However readers be warned that while Ausra’s story will come to a conclusion, the book will end on a mini-cliffhanger that will be the beginning of Lynda’s story and her own duet The Preacher’s Wife.
** This book contains triggering situations with extreme violence, trauma, abuse and PTSD. It also contains sexual scenes and this duet is a whychoose story, so Ausra won’t have to choose between her love interests.

From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters, comes a tempting tale of fated love, lust-filled secrets and the beginnings of an epic war.

There was never a question of whether or not I would be his. It's simply what fate demanded.

There's a knowing when the werewolves find their mates. It's an aching need, a desperation... one they would die for. But for their mates, it's a trance, a pull, a submissive desire that's at odds with the shadows of my past and how I've learned to survive.

I didn't know how hard I'd fall. I didn't know what destiny would bring.
I didn't know it then that I would die for him as he would me.

Meet Willow


I started writing after having my little girl, Evie, December of 2015. All during my pregnancy with her I read. I only wanted to read romance novels and I read everything I could get my hands on. I would read a book a day -- sometimes two. In January I was staying up late with her and just thinking of all these stories. They came to me constantly. I finally sat down and just started writing. I always wanted to do it so I figured, why not?

I never thought I would reach this point of success to be honest. It's insane to me that I have connected with so many readers.

And I love each and every one of them for all of their support. I'll be honest, some days are HARD. I have my littles during the day and I write at night. Some days are just simply exhausting and then I hear from a reader and it motivates me to push through and keep writing. I couldn't be more grateful for this wonderful career.

A playboy rock star.

His bandmate's sister.

One night neither can forget

 

Cassidy Forrester agreed to help the world-famous band, The Original Kings, as their personal assistant. Her brother might be the drummer but their lead singer, Dash Kingston, is the man who rocked her world and disappeared the morning after.

 

Dash Kingston is grateful. He recently dodged a pregnancy scare with a groupie and is determined to focus on his music. Except the world and the media aren’t finished discussing Dash and his wild ways. His publicist has a solution. Dash needs a serious girlfriend. STAT. And she wants Cassidy to be the woman who tames  the infamous ladies' man. 

 

Cassidy isn’t the only one with sizzling memories of their night together, and when Dash is given the opportunity to make her his girlfriend, he's all in. He’s got enough charm to convince her to give him another chance, not just in his bed this time, but in his life. For the band’s sake, she agrees to play the role. But only a fool would make the same mistake twice, and Cassidy refuses to let their spark burn her a second time.
