Jock Royal by Sara Ney

 

Release Date: June 24

IT’S EASY TO TAKE ONE DARE WHEN YOU THINK IT’S HARMLESS.

 

Ashley Dryden-Jones is the best rugby player on the field—when I take a dare I instantly regret, I had no way of knowing he was a gentleman. An athlete. British with no plans to stay in the States.

 

He makes me forget myself, bruises, 5 o’clock shadow, accent and all.

 

He makes me forget I cannot crawl into bed with him at night—or get drunk and throw caution to the wind for once in my overly cautious life.

 

Because he’s my new roommate.

 

ONE STUPID BET LEADS TO ONE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT.

 

When I win a trip to Vegas I need a plus one; he’s the strapping, strong and responsible choice. Besides—I’ve never been anywhere and he has.

 

He is the best friend I didn’t know I needed.

 

Ashley is one of the good ones—but I’m about to find out how bad this good boy can be.

Hard Fall by Sara Ney






"Hard Fall"
That's what my mom is always saying: "The bigger you are, the harder you fall." She's talking about love—I've never been in it myself, but that doesn't stop me from secretly matchmaking for my friends. Who would suspect me, a world class athlete, of meddling in other people's love lives? I love Love, especially when it’s not me who’s doing the falling…

"No Thanks."
That's what Hollis Westbrooke said when I asked her on a date. Well, propositioned her, actually—but it was all a big joke; one she doesn't think is funny. My stomach is in knots since I might actually like this girl so the joke is on me. Hollis’s father is my boss—and she doesn't date players.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall—especially when biggest player is me.

Looking to Score by CoraLee June and Carrie Gray

๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ HOT NEW RELEASE ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Looking to Score by CoraLee June and Carrie Gray is LIVE and FREE with KU!

Looking to Score is like the book equivalent of comfort food- goes down easy and leaves you feeling full and content. This book is funny, charming, heart-warming, insanely clever, and JUST what we need. I simply LOVED it and could not put it down.” ~The Romantic Rush Blog


He’s like literally the worst.
Oakley Davis is the star running back at our University, and the reason I’ve broken my vow to avoid the college party scene. Thanks to a mixup with my advisor, I’m now serving my Public Relations internship as a glorified babysitter to the party-hard football players.
Specifically, Oakley.
He’s impossible to manage. His Instagram is full of half-naked, drunk photos and he’d rather attend parties than practice. His brand needs some serious work, and when he’s not driving me insane, he’s sleeping his way through the entire female population.
But I’m determined. I have plans to graduate a semester early and nothing or no one will get in my way. I’m a Virgo, after all. Oakley Davis might be a privileged, cocky, football star, but I’m Amanda Matthews; and I’ll do whatever it takes to get my A.
I have to make sure I don’t end up falling in love with the idiot, first.
Start reading today!

   

Review:
Omg this book gave me such a headache!! A headache from laughing. I haven’t been big on rom coms but I fan girl pretty hard over CoraLee June, so I decided to give it a try, and I was so glad I did. Oakley is a hot mess y’all. He pulls the typical man whore top athlete bull, what sets this apart though is there is a serious undertone as well. Amanda a so type A it’s almost painful, but as the story progresses we really get to see these two progress as humans. Told entirely in Amanda’s voice this is a refreshing look at college sports and some of the things we do while looking for redemption.

Review:

Gah! I love a good sports romance and All the Way was a fantastic addition to the Hot Jocks series. I really enjoyed reading Playing For Keeps, but All The Way completely stole my heart. I absolutely loved it! Becca and Owen's story was both beautiful and moving, and had me 100% enthralled from the start.

Becca is the team owner's assistant for the Ice Hawks, a pro hockey team. Several years ago she suffered a tragic event which left her scared of intimacy. Now she's finally decided to get back into the dating game, and who better to help her than her best friend Owen. He is the starting goalie for the Ice Hawks who lives the whole playboy pro athlete life. He has never wanted anything meaningful or real. Girls are simply a means to an end for him. But that all changes after he agrees to help Becca with some hands-on pointers. During their little experiment, lines become blurred, and they have to decide if taking the next step is something that they both want.

I loved Becca & Owen's story immensely! It was sexy and sweet with plenty of heart-felt and swoon worthy moments. I enjoyed watching their longtime friendship evolve into something so beautiful and magical. I loved the playful banter between them, their sizzling hot chemistry and how Owen was able to help Becca heal from her difficult past. The build-up of their relationship was so sweet, and I was rooting for them the whole way. All in all, this was another fantastic Kendall Ryan story! Please do yourself a favor and one-click when this goes live. I am here to tell you, that you will not be disappointed. 5 sweet and sexy stars!

Stealing Home by Harlow Cole




Title: Stealing Home
Series: St. Michaels Duet #2
Author: Harlow Cole
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
Release Date: August 1, 2019



Blurb

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.

Excerpt

I pumped the gas pedal a half-dozen times, trying to will the thing back to life, as I coasted to the gravel shoulder on the side of the road. I slumped forward, resting my forearms and brow against the oversized steering wheel, locked inside disbelief of the shittiest luck possible. I’d become one of those blow-up punching dolls with the sand in the bottom. The kind fists keep pummeling ’cause the stupid thing never has the sense to stay down.

Begrudgingly, I popped the hood release and hopped down out of the cab. I had no clue how to diagnose the problem, but broken-down suckers on the roadside always pretend to look at the engine.

I played along.

Stepping up onto the rusted front bumper, I stared at the pile of dirty metal while daydreaming about tossing a match inside and walking away. At least bending over under the hood shielded part of me from the rain.

The sound of tires crunching through the gravel behind the truck brought a sigh of sweet relief. I looked back up at the heavens and felt bad for not trusting my angel to send help. Jumping down from my perch on the bumper, I brushed my hands down the front of my khaki shorts as I rounded the front of the cab to call out to my hero. Cruel disbelief blossomed in the back of my throat.

“You’ve got to be shitting me. This is not happening.”

He’s still in town?

It had been almost a week. A week of trying to make myself believe our run-in at Foxy’s was just another bad dream. Six freaking days of convincing myself life couldn’t possibly be that cruel. I’d avoided the town gossip machine buzzing furiously about his sudden return. But no one else would drive that car. It looked like money on wheels. The black paint and sleek lines made my truck’s chipped blue exterior and scratched marina logo look even more pathetic. Some folks in St. Michaels had seen a Maserati.

Nobody in town drove one.
Certainly not one with New York plates.

I lifted my face to the rain, letting it wash away my urge to cry, as the driver’s side door popped open, and my worst day of the week took a turn for my worst day ever. He was dressed casually in a pair of shiny black athletic shorts and a plain gray sweatshirt, slightly frayed across the bottom hem by time and fondness. The hood bunched up around his neck, framing the sharp jawline that sported thick, dark scruff.

Brayden Ross turned gym-rat attire into the costume of a sex god.

He suffered from that strange anomaly that saddled people with fame and fortune. As a little girl, I’d seen it in his father and his father’s friends. They seemed crisper around the edges or something. Like brand-new bills freshly spit from the ATM instead of crumpled dollars that spent life stuffed in back pockets and sweaty bras.

He didn’t walk toward me; he prowled.
Slow and steady with this sexy gait that deserved its own theme music.
The rain didn’t even try to touch him.

This second sighting didn’t level the same sucker punch. More like a queasy dysphoria. A bad case of dรฉjร  vu that punctured skin and vein. Half of me wanted to run, throw my arms around his waist, and hold on for dear life. The other half wanted to put my hands around his neck and squeeze hard.
