To Forgive & Hold Safe by Carey Decevito
Loss, pain, guilt…
Those are the emotions Ben Carpenter feels as the lone survivor of a terrible night, three years before, where fate was so unkind.
On a quest to forget, aware of only one thing—overwhelming misery—he submerses himself into running Fairfax, the pub he and his wife had once planned on opening together, and his side gig as a volunteer firefighter.
Resolved to a life of loneliness, Ben is sideswiped when envy takes hold after he’s asked to stand as Best Man at his best friend’s wedding.
Before he can deal with the idea of opening up to love again, tragedy strikes…just not for Ben this time.
As secrets to his wife’s betrayal come to light, Ben is faced with the reality that an opportunity to heal stares him straight in the face—albeit, in the form of Hannah.
Bonded by their similar losses, Ben begins to wonder.
Is there really such a thing as second chances?

Will To Love (Lifestyle by Design Book 1) by Miranda P. Charles @MirandaPCharles
Clarise Carson was desperate to keep her newly-engaged sister from playing matchmaker at her very own engagement party. She couldn’t think of anything more embarrassing than have her sister’s guests see her as the loser in love who couldn’t find “The One”. So she dragged a handsome friend to be her “pretend” boyfriend for the night.
Will Matthews went to his friend Rick’s engagement party for one reason – to meet Rick’s future sister-in-law, the writer for Lifestyle by Design magazine, in the hope that he could have an article published for his boutique travel agency service. He knew Rick had plans to introduce him to some single girl at the party but he laughed it off. He had no desire whatsoever to be in a relationship with any woman who would want commitment. He was far too focused in building his business to the success he dreamed.
When Will and Clarise met, sparks flew and there was an instant, undeniable attraction between them. With Will, Clarise found herself wanting to bury demons from the past. But Will knew what he wanted – and it wasn’t a relationship.
How can Clarise stop her old wounds from opening up and bleeding again? And how can Will learn to embrace the one thing he didn’t even know he wanted?

Oceans Apart 1 by Amanda Heartley
The hottest New Adult Romance of the summer!
Review: “…holy heck, this is a hot book. I love stories that are slow burners…that make you wait for the “good stuff” while building up the characters. Amanda did a great job with the intimate cyber scene. Could’ve been really confusing with the back and forth but it felt incredibly real.” – Adele H, Goodreads
“It’s been months since the big break-up, but what do you do when the life you knew goes straight to hell? How do you pick yourself up from a cheating asshole like Brad?
Virginia Peterson is living the dream. She’s young, independent, has a loving boyfriend, her own home, a promising career, and Kari, a BFF that makes other girls jealous. What could be better?
Life is good until she catches Brad with his pants down… and in her home! Needless to say, his ass is out and she’s back to her life as a curvy single woman. She needs to get out more, as brassy Kari keeps reminding her, but she’s not about to go through any more heartbreak. Another man is not on the agenda. Not even for a casual encounter.
…until Tristan. Tall, tattooed, and an English accent to die for. He’s everything Ginny always dreamed of… bold, captivating and passionate…and he’s way out of her league. Tristan Armstrong is the only son of a real estate mogul. Dad wants him in the office wheeling and dealing, but the posh bad boy is stubborn, rugged, and likes to get down and dirty working with his construction crews around the world.
After the lies and deception of his debutante fiancé, he’s in no mood for love… then Ginny sets his heart on fire. What happens when their two worlds collide? Can a white-collar rockabilly chick with sensuous hips and a penchant for food be accepted into the lives of British aristocrats? Or will the debutante win when he’s five thousand miles away from her.

Lost in Time I is a love story about travelling great lengths to find your true soul mate.
Scottish maiden Isobeille Aislinn McKenna wasn’t like the other lasses. She was curious about the world around her and wanted more than a life of servitude and obeisance. When her abusive father arranges her marriage in order to pay his debts, she prays for divine intervention.

Her Troika (The Complete Story) by Trent Evans
Two strict Doms, one brave sub, and a slave auction…
Kurt Erickson has been offered a Dom’s dream job. He picks his own hours, answers to no one, and gets to train submissive women all day. One of those submissive women happens to be his willing wife. Making Breanna’s deepest, darkest fantasy come true is the easy part. It may be trickier to persuade his best friend Derek to … buy her.
Breanna Erickson prides herself on being ready for anything. From the courtroom to the bedroom, she can handle it all. But when her strict, but loving, husband gives her the chance to live out a dream, she finds there are things no woman can be ready for.
Derek’s marriage ended because he buried dark needs that proved incompatible with a vanilla wife. He’s buried those needs, those truths, deep down, determined to never let them hurt him again. Being Kurt’s best friend has many benefits, but some of them are much more than Derek is ready for — or so he thinks.
Then one night, an auction. Only a select few women agree to a Term of Service to the shadowy organization known as the Dominion Trust. One of them is Breanna. For Kurt, thrilling, tantalizing possibilities are laid out before him. For Breanna, it’s the chance to realize a dark, erotic dream — and to heal a broken heart. And for Derek, forced to confront who he really is — and what he never realized he needed — he must take that first step.
All he has to do is bid on her …
