All In by Sidney Halston

Title: All In: Iggy's Story
Series: A Worth the Fight and Panic Crossover #1
Author: Sidney Halston
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 9, 2019

Abby: He was my best friend. My first kiss, my first love, my first everything really. But then he walked out of my life and didn’t look back. It was sudden, and I was devastated. All I knew was that Iggy had enlisted in the Army—and that he was leaving me—likely forever. But that was twenty years ago, now my life is in shambles and I don’t just have myself to worry about…

Iggy: I still think about her. Every time I walk through the doors of my club, Duality, I’m reminded of what I’m missing. Every time I take a man to the mat at the Academy, it hurts, but not as much as the pain of losing her. Every time I suit-up to fly overseas knowing I might not come back, the regret comes raging back. Life has been hell. But it’s a hell I’ve chosen. I’m happy enough, now. But if she’s in trouble, I can’t stay away. I won’t stay away. I’ll protect her and her children with my life, and if she’ll let me stay, I’ll promise to never leave again.

❝This is a great novel with a well planned story! Definitely a five star read!❞ - Jenny (Goodreads)

❝You will fall in love with these characters! Great book!❞ - Cassie Ashford

I’m done. He’s sweet, but I’m over this game, no matter how nice he’s trying to be. If years of speech therapy can’t fix me, this guy is certainly not going to. “Iggy.” That’s as close as it’s going to get at the moment. I’ll go home and practice but for right now, I’m done.

“Iggy?” he repeats, and I shrug defeatedly. “Iggy. Yeah, I can live with that.” He winks at me. “Later, Abby.”

And then he walks away with a smug look on his face.

Justice for Aleta By Deanndra Hall



Title: Justice for Aleta 
Author: Deanndra Hall 
Genre:Military Romance/ Romantic Suspense 
Release Date: July 9, 2019 



Who’s worse than Wyatt Earp? An Earp wanna-be with a really big gun.
That’s who Kentucky State Police Trooper Jack Fletcher discovers he’s dealing with when he happens up on a deadly two-car crash one foggy morning and finds two dead men, a dead infant, and a seriously-injured woman on the side of the Bluegrass Parkway in central Kentucky. There’s just one problem. When he spotted the accident initially from the other direction on the parkway, he was sure there were three cars.
But where is the car? Who was the mysterious man driving it? And why would he kidnap a 17-year-old girl? Jack goes back to the source—the woman he found on the side of the road—and Aleta Culp confirms the suspicions of the man she’s come to think of as her guardian angel. Jack’s charmed by her innocence, impressed with her tenacity, and ready for the sweet, soft, curvy body she offers him. But when she identifies the wanna-be outlaw, keeping her safe from an up-and-coming cartel leader will only be possible with help from San Antonio FBI Agent Cruz Livingston and Texas Ranger Daxton Chambers. They know the threat better than any of their Kentucky counterparts, but even that may not help.
Loaded with a love that’s hotter than sin, suspense, drama, and a criminal element short on intelligence but long on treachery, Bluegrass Bravery: Justice for Aleta is a triumph of a woman whose losses drive her to be braver than the men around her. The story is built around an actual accident that took place in Kentucky in 1983.

Excerpt

She pulls
her feet away, tucking them beneath her, and props an arm on the back of the
couch. After brushing a wayward curl from my forehead, she meets my eyes again.
“What is going on in your head tonight? Talk to me, Tris.”
“I’m
trying.”
“Start with
telling me why you made me promise not to date without talking to you first.”
Reaching
forward, I caress her cheek, and she leans into my touch. “Date me next.”
I use the
tone she calls the commanding one, and her eyes dilate. Fuck . . . it really
does turn her on. How did I never notice that?
“Tristan,
that’s a really bad idea.”
“Why?”
“Why? For
starters, you’re my best friend.”
“Exactly.”
I weave my fingers into her hair, and she moves closer to me. “If it doesn’t
work, we’ll be fine, I promise. I won’t let this get in the way of our
friendship.”
“You say
that now but—”
I bring my
finger to her lips to silence her. “No buts; we’ve been through so much
already. We can handle seven dates.”
“You’re
assuming you’ll make it to the seventh date.” As I smile, she gasps. “That’s
why you made me promise.”
I’m about
to lay all my cards on the table. “Yes. Bexley, I want my chance to win your
heart.”
Her eyes
close for a long moment, but my hand is still at the base of her neck, my
fingers entwined in her curls. “I’m scared, Tris. What if you do something
that’s a deal breaker?”
“That’s
always a possibility, but if I do it in the first six dates, you have to let it
go. If I do it on the seventh, well, that’s a risk I’m willing to take, I
suppose. Either way, nothing is going to come between us. Nothing.”
The air
snaps between us. This has become a defining moment in our relationship, but
it’s one I think, deep down, we both knew was inevitable.
“Would
tonight count as our first date?” She still hasn’t opened her eyes.
“That
depends. Do you kiss on your first dates?”
Her eyes
finally snap open, and I’m met with a lust-filled gaze. Damn, I’ve never seen
this look on her, but now I don’t ever want to see her without it. “Sometimes,
I do.”
“Well, if
you want a kiss good night, then we can count this as our first date.
Otherwise, tomorrow can be our first date.”
The rise
and fall of her chest becomes noticeable as her breathing intensifies. She
squirms, and I realize she’s turned on. Part of me wants her to say no, this
isn’t our first date, because I’d love for it to be special to her. But another
part of me wants to take her mouth with mine and kiss her until morning.
“Are you a
good kisser?” she whispers, inching even closer to me. Bexley watches intently
as I lick my lips ever so slightly, moistening what I want to give her.
“I’ve never
had any complaints, but there’s always a first time for everything.” I cup the
back of her neck and pull her closer to me—so close, she’s only a whisper from
my lips. “It’s your call. What do you want to do?”
She moves
forward and presses her lips tentatively against mine. In the course of every
relationship, there is a make-or-break moment, and this one is ours—I feel it
to my core as her apricot scent envelops me. I’m a lost cause.
“First date
it is,” I whisper against them before wrapping my free arm around her waist and
pulling her even closer.

St. Michaels Duet by Harlow Cole






Title: Interference
Series: St. Michaels Duet #1
Author: Harlow Cole
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance

Cover Design: Juliana Cabrera, Jersey Girl Design
Release Date: July 18, 2019




Blurb


Brayden
I’m a
goddamn prodigy.  It’s true. Ask anyone.
I threw my
first curveball the day I was born.

The whole
town is waiting on me.
To live up
to my father’s famous name. To reach for the stars. 

All I want
to reach for is her.

But Ashley
is the sweet addiction I can’t afford. She’s my best friend’s sister. Hell,
she’s practically my little sister. For years, I’ve protected her from guys
that want one thing. What happens now that I’ve turned into one of them? Who’s
gonna shield her from the way I was made, from my little white lies and from
what I’m about to become?

My game
plan sounds simple: Pitch my way into the Major League draft and stay out of
Ashley Foster’s pants. That first part may be statistically difficult.

The second
feels damn near impossible.

Ashley
From the
moment we met, I knew he was trouble.
The kind my
mother sent me to find.
The type
that ruins you for any other brand.

When we
were young kids, I didn’t know what to call the frogs and butterflies that
danced in my belly whenever Brayden came near. Now I know they have a name.

Those three
little words that could heal or destroy him.

Before
Brayden, my life was normal. And then it wasn’t. It couldn’t be. Ever again.
How was I to know stealing his seat would change all our lives?

Anger and forgiveness share two halves of the
same coin.
Our story might make you choose sides.


Interference is a slow burn, coming of age romance
that takes readers from the sweet anticipation of first times to the passion of
soul mates finally staking their claim. With a touch of Dawson’s Creek and a
taste of Friday Night Lights, it is the first half of the completed St.
Michaels duet.






Title: Stealing Home
Series: St. Michaels Duet #2

Ashley
I’ve given up. On my childish dreams.
On getting out of this town. On love. On him.
On everything.

I’m barely treading water.

Brayden
I’m the man with it all.

The pinstriped jersey covering my back garners easy cash, flashy cars and
fast women. My gilded name drapes over the city in neon. I have everything.
Everything, except the thing I crave most. Ashley Foster.

There’s one addiction I never tried to beat.

They say you can never go home again. I’m out to prove them wrong. But
what if returning requires facing all the things you destroyed? To what lengths
would you go to earn forgiveness?

Would you beg? Would you borrow? Would you steal?

Stealing home is the riskiest move in baseball. But the reward... If it
works? Winning her back is a chance I’m finally ready to take.

My pockets are filled with stars.
It’s time to follow them home.

This
time, I don’t want to steal her firsts,
I want
to lay claim on all her lasts.
