Mason Thompson hates motorbike racing. It’s stupid, pointless, and dangerous. The glorified man-children who partake in this idiocy are even worse. None more so than Liam Ryan.



Liam Ryan is cocky, and he has every reason to be. There’s not a person on the track—or off it—who can get the better of him. He’ll be damned if drop-dead gorgeous paramedic Mason Thompson is the first.



But when events and overzealous bloggers seek to force them even further apart, will they risk everything to be together?



Will they break ground and realise sometimes the greatest risk results in the ultimate reward?



Breaking Ground is a M/M romance prequel to Megan Lowe's Australian sports romance series. This book can be read as a stand-alone novella.

Big Dicker by J.A. Huss, KC Cross


Big Dicker
J.A. Huss, K.C. Cross
(Harem Station, #2)
Publication date: June 10th 2019
Genres: Sci-Fi Alien Romance

Big Dicker is a full-length, romp-y, Sci-Fi Romance that features hot, soul-mate sex on a family-friendly resort, a sentient ship with a strip poker problem, three drunk-outlaw sexbots on vacay, a crazy, but misunderstood, dragonbee bot, and an evil villainess who has big plans for Jimmy’s sperm.



Welcome to Mighty Minions Resort.

Jimmy’s personal hell.

All Jimmy wants is a booster shot of DNA scrambler so he never has to find his one-true soul mate. But life rarely goes the way you plan it.

After dropping Xyla off on Blue Sand Beach for a little vacay with her sexbot girlfriends the Big Dicker has to make an emergency landing on the demon-themed Mighty Minions Resort. Picture hordes of exasperated parents, sticky, crying kids, and a park AI that seems determined to suck every credit out of his Harem Station bank account.

The only good thing about Mighty Minions from Jimmy’s perspective—it’s not the place you meet your soul mate.

Until outlaw Cygnian princess, Delphi, shows up and shatters all his best-laid plans.

But Delphi isn’t there to fall in love with Jimmy.

She’s there to kidnap him and take him back to her boss, the Loathsome One.

EXCERPT:

JIMMY

This girl.

Delphi.

Who the hell is she?

And she’s pink, which means she’s important. Which means she probably explodes like Lyra and Corla. Which means… why the fuck is she here?

Sun gods, Jimmy. Get a grip. She already told you in not so many words, she’s here for you!

Oh, yeah. How did that slip my mind? Like… it’s kind of an important fact, right? She’s here for me.

There’s definitely something wrong with me. Maybe she drugged me? Maybe this DNA signature scramble is wearing off?

It shouldn’t be. I’m months early for my booster. This whole trip was just about extra precautions.

But everything has gone wrong since I dropped Xyla off. When was the last time I was in danger and Xyla wasn’t around to have my back?

Never, I decide. This is the first and only time that I’ve been out in space without her.

I wonder if I could reach her from here?

I tap my wristband and find her contact, so wishing we were on Harem and I could just open an air screen or command Baby ALCOR to send a neutrino wave to her comms. I ping her, hoping that Blue Sand Beach is close enough for me to get through.

But a Mighty Minion message appears stating that while I’m not authorized for inter-station calls I could purchase an add-on communication package for the low, low price of twenty-five thousand credits.

Figures. This place is such a scam.

I decide this is worth it, so I tap the ‘Purchase’ tab. I need to get in touch with her and let her know what’s happening. My Mighty Pass chimes and says, “You can now make inter-station calls in the Vacation Sector.”

“Great.” I tab Xyla again, then wait as a little animation of Mighty Boss making a call to Mighty Hime plays on my little screen.

Xyla’s face appears. She’s in the middle of sipping a frothy exotic drink with half a dozen swizzle sticks poking out the top, and her sexybot girlfriends are all crowding into the frame. “Jim-meeeeeee!” She laughs, almost spitting out her drink.

“So hey, sorry to bother you but—”

“Jim-meeeeeeee,” all the girlfriends echo.

“Uh, hey… ladies. Nice to see you again. Xyla, can I have a moment?”

“Jimmmmmm-meeeeeeeeeeee!” they all say again.

For sun’s fucking sake. Has everyone on my team lost their fucking mind?

“I got a new swimsuit,” Xyla says. “Wanna check it out?” She fumbles with her wristband, taking it off, I guess, then hands it to her friend and says, “Get all of me in the frame,” as she steps back and starts modeling her new purple bikini, yellow ocean and blue sand beach in the background.

“Looks great,” I say. “So can I talk to you for—”

“Don’t you love it? Cha-Cha got one too. Here, Chach. Gimme that back and you model next!”

“Xyla,” I say, rubbing my temple with two fingers. Because I’m starting to get annoyed.

But Cha-Cha is already twirling unsteadily in a circle. Her suit is lime green and comes with holsters hanging off her hip strings for holding knives.

“Now you, Ladybug!”

Ladybug’s suit is black with red polka dots and she’s sporting a plasma pistol on her hip.

“And look!” Xyla exclaims. “They sell SEAR swords here!” The frame rotates, goes upside down, then rotates again and then Xyla is standing backlit by a fake Blue Sand Beach sun, spinning, and kicking as she demonstrates her sword skills.

I just watch her until she’s done because Chach and Ladybug are screaming and whistling in the background.

She comes back to the wristband, takes it in her hand and shoves it up to her face, then pans it around the beach hut. “This place,” she slurs, “is a goddamned assassin’s paradise!”

“Are we assassins now?” I ask.

“We’ve decided we are,” Cha-Cha says, as she whips out her own sword, stands, erect, closes her eyes, breathes deep, and then starts doing a slow-motion kata routine complete with slow-motion talking.

Ladybug and Xyla erupt in giggles, practically falling over.

  1. So calling Xyla was probably a bad idea.

“Oh,” Xyla says, still laughing. “Did you need something, Jimmy?”

“No,” I say. “No… just we’re stuck here.”

Xyla frowns. “Stuck? Where?”

“On Mighty Minions.”

All three girls erupt in laughter.

“Yup,” I say. “It’s pretty funny. We got a virus and had to stop to get a new water generator. And now Dicker seems to have a strip poker problem and I met this girl. She’s supposed to be an engineer but she’s really—”

A siren sounds over on Blue Sand Beach and all three girls swivel their heads to the left.

“That’s the last call for the wet package contest,” Xyla says, out of breath. “Gotta go.”

And then the call drops.

What the fuck is happening?

I call her back but Mighty Boss informs me that I’ve used up all my comm credits.

Because of course I have.

Just then the bedroom door opens and Delphi walks out wearing tight leggings that hug her hips, a tight sweater that hugs her tits, and some furry booties.

Immediately I become distracted. Like… I can’t take my eyes off this cute little pink nightmare. My cocks begin to swell. Both of them. And if I was in my right mind I’d be worried about that, because my junk just doesn’t work that way. But I’m not in my right mind. My mind is consumed with thoughts of kissing her, and fondling her, and yes, fucking her brains out.

Under a Different Sky by Lindsey Iler

Title: Under a Different Sky
Series: Hand Over My Heart Duet Book One
Author: Lindsey Iler
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: June 10, 2019

My life is a mess.

I'm walking around with a black eye. My position on the hockey team is questionable at best, and if that’s not bad enough, I think I'm falling for my dead girlfriend's best friend.

Every day, it's a fight to feel alive, and yet, I drink to numb the pain. Everyone is standing back, watching me fall apart.

Everyone except Hannah. No matter how many times I push, she's there to pull me back. She refuses to let me spiral any deeper. And after one kiss—she’s impossible to ignore.

Unfortunately, it seems she and I aren’t the only thing being kept a secret.




"What a phenomenal read, definitely one of my favourites from 2019."- Ever Growing Book Obsession
"The author didn't just make me feel the book. She made me live it, experience it and breathe it. I loved each and every swoon-worthy, heart fluttering, heartbreaking, painful and devastating moment. " - K&M Sultry Reads, Meredith
"This book will pull you in, it will pull your heart strings, and in the end it will break you." -Goodreads Reviewer/Bookstagrammer @Reading_Junkie28
"Under a Different Sky is intensely moving and downright soulful. This read will pull at your heartstrings, send your heart soaring, as well as rip it out entirely. All the feels, all the stars, and an epic read you can’t miss!"- SWBR Book Blog & Reviews, Sarah N.










Her fingers rub against each other like they’re trying to control themselves. Does she want to reach out and touch me? The thought of her being nervous makes me smirk. Her eyes scan up my legs, to my bare chest, and stop on my lips. She bites down on her own, and I can’t help but notice the pink hue on her chest.

She’s losing it. There’s a power in that, an exhilaration that’s hard to ignore. I need to remember to lose the shirt more often.

“I never noticed...” she whispers, moving her hands down to her sides. “I mean, I noticed. I just never...”

“Allowed yourself too long to appreciate it.” I move toward her.

“Right.” Her chest rises and falls rapidly, like she has zero control of herself.

“And what about now? Are you going to allow yourself?” My last step brings me to her feet, and I straddle one leg while standing above her.

Her chin lifts, and her hair skims over her back. “It’s probably not a good idea.”

“Sometimes the bad ideas are the ones that change our lives, Hannah. Let me change everything.” I lean down, inching my lips closer to hers. “I know you said you didn’t want me to kiss you yet, but...”

heal all wounds. I thought it had healed mine when I found myself ready to say
"I Do." It all came crashing down the moment I saw Freya Pratt again.

she made me feel something I haven’t felt since the day she left. She made me
feel alive. Now I’m questioning everything about our past and my future.

seemed like a good idea at eighteen. I needed him to forget me and let me go.
All these years I'd pretended like what we had was never real. I told myself I
wanted what was best for him. I told myself that wasn't me. After seeing him
again, I'm not so sure. As his wedding day nears, I wonder if I should tell him
the real reason why I left. Would it even make a difference?

Excerpt



Springing
to my feet, I square my shoulders, and meet his gaze head-on. Dark gray storm
clouds swirl, uncontrollable. He bites down on the corner of his mouth, kicking
one foot up behind him, the sole of his shoe banging against the door.
Standing my
ground, I hold his tortured perusal, unwilling to blink first.
“Lila.” He
rasps, his eyelids hooded.
“Cade.”
“Why’d you
run?”
“I had to
go to the bathroom.”
The left
side of his mouth twitches and he pushes off the bathroom door, another step
closer to me. “No, you didn’t. You couldn’t get out of the room fast enough.”
“You
think?”
“It was
shitty of me to put you on the spot like that in front of all those people.”
“I told you
I don’t want a…thing.” I gesture between us.
“I know.
But this thing,” he steps closer, crowding me, “it’s not going anywhere.”
I shuffle
back until I’m pressed against the bathroom wall opposite the door. This damn
bathroom is suffocating, overflowing with Cade’s presence. Cade’s forearm
settles next to my head, boxing me in. His mouth is only inches from mine, his
tongue darting out to swipe across his bottom lip.
I groan, my
body involuntarily arching toward his. Jesus, what is wrong with me? And what
is he thinking? Who could have a proper argument with all of these…
distractions?
“I
shouldn’t have done that, blown up your spot, tossed all that attention your
way. But babe,” he drops his forehead to mine, his breath fluttering over my
lips like an invitation I desperately want to RSVP yes to, “I hated that so
many people threw shade your way. Every comment I heard pissed me off so much
more because it was said about you, not me. And I won’t let any of these people
talk shit about you.” He jabs a finger toward the party transpiring outside of
the smallest bathroom that ever existed. “And I’m not going to apologize for
looking out for you.”
“Cade,” I’m
breathless, quivering for him to stop talking and start touching. But I need to
be strong, resolute … honest. “I’m leaving in four months. I don’t do –”
“Serious, I
know. Me either.” His nose brushes against mine and I shiver. Shiver! “But give
me a shot, Lila. I’m not going to wifey you. Just let me take you out, kick it
with me, come to my games and rock my number, give it a chance.”
“What if
it’s too much?”
His fingers
close around my hips, tugging until my belly button is flush against his jeans.
Jesus. Need pools within me and as his fingertips grip harder, his body
grinding against mine, I whimper, desperate for relief from the wildfire
consuming me.
“What if
it’s too damn good?” he angles his head lower, his bottom lip ghosting mine.
“Let me light you up until we burn out. Babe, I’m not feeding you lines. I want
you, Lovely.”
