Under The Stars (Iron Orchids Book 6) by Danielle Norman
The Christakos family hold a special place in my heart. So when I found out George and Christine were getting their own story I couldn't wait. Under the Stars is the beginning of what love is. George is as rambunctious as his offspring. He acts first and is forced to think it through later. Must be a family thing, but even at his most rebellious, he shows glimpses of the patriach we all know and love. Christine is not without a hint of that fire that shines through her children. She speaks her mind, knows her heart and in George she finds her soul. Norman has created a family that knows how to be a family. What a great legacy. One click all the way.

GRUFF ASS IN LOVE (HARD, FAST AND FOREVER) BY SASHA BURKE
Release Date: February 26, 2019
SYNOPSIS
She’s the maddening, ridiculously cute trespasser who sneaks on my property to play with my rocks.
(No euphemism—she really does just look at rocks.)
He’s the grumpy, unbelievably handsome rancher who has the best rocks to study in the area.
(What on earth would rocks be a euphemism for?)
After months of resisting the urge, I finally haul her over my shoulder to escort her off my land.
Really, why I haven’t done it before now is beyond me.
After months of being clueless, I finally notice that his land isn’t the only thing hard around me.
Really, how it escaped my attention before now is beyond me.
She’s so damn responsive.
He’s so brawny and burly.
The next time she sneaks in, I’m ready for her.
The next time I sneak in, he shocks the heck out of me.
To be fair, the woman is utterly injury-prone.
To be clear, the man has apparently lost his ever-loving mind.
I just want her to stay safe and out of trouble for a change.
For a few hours, tops, while I take care of some ranch things that can’t wait.
So…I cuff her to the bed.
And now I’m wondering what the hell’s going to happen next.
His constant alpha protectiveness is, yes, very sweet, but seriously?
I should be more outraged by this.
Really, I should be.
But…now I’m kind of curious what’s going to happen next.

Release Date: February 26, 2019
SYNOPSIS
He’s our star player, and I’m technically his boss ... An off-limits sports romance and Book 6 in the Wild Men series.
Savannah
Every day is the same. I go to the Climax Coffee Shop, and then to the ice hockey rink, where I’ve worked since I was a kid.
But today, a cocky guy cuts me in line. A dark-haired, sexy guy with laser eyes and a perfect body.
I can’t ignore how hot he is, and I especially can’t ignore how he’s the only man to ever make me want. Like really want.
By the time I walk into my office, I’m completely thrown off by the Hot Stranger.
Then my boss tells me a new player is joining our ice hockey team and it’s my job to do whatever it takes to make him comfortable.
Only one problem: the new hot shot is the Hot Stranger, and the rulebook says I’m forbidden to score with the players.
My boring life just got a lot more interesting.
Cameron
Savannah McMann has fierce green eyes and a temper to match.
But she’s shy and skittish whenever I put my eyes on her. I can see she’s wounded but I can’t tell what kind of jerk hurt her.
And why do I care anyway? I’m on this team to get my stats up, not to score with the coach’s assistant.
But my head keeps finding reasons to end up in her office, while another part of me dreams of being in her pants.
She’s got a strong defense, so I’ve got to play it slow or I’ll end up flat on the ice with my stick in my hands.
One thing’s for sure: I want her. I like her. And I’m ready to take a few body checks to show her I’m the real deal.

WOULD BE KING BY KIM KARR
Release Date: February 27, 2019
SYNOPSIS
A dare turns into so much more…
All I want to do is get to work on time.
But a Prince Harry look-a-like is trying to steal my cab,
and that’s not going to happen.
In the midst of the battle,
I discover I lost my wallet.
So I bargain—a free ride for a kiss.
His lips taste like mint, and when he tugs me closer,
I can feel the hard muscles beneath his expensive suit.
The kiss ends just as we reach our destination,
and I’m so taken aback by the explosiveness of it,
I rush out without so much as a goodbye.
I’m a hopeless romantic with no time for distractions.
But fate, that bitch,
Has us pounding on the same locked door.
Already knowing I’m going to be fired,
I curse my new boss and his new rules.
The hot suit laughs,
And dares me to tell my new boss what a dick he’s being.
With nothing to lose, I accept.
Never in a million years could I have imagined he is my new boss.
Dating him is against the rules,
His rules.
He’s a rulebreaker, though,
And everyone knows a rulebreaker isn’t a forever-kind-of-guy.
So when he says let’s keep things casual,
I dare him not to fall in love with me.
But there’s a reason rules aren’t meant to be broken,
And finding that out is the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do in my life.
My rulebreaker has a name,
It’s Prince Maximus Montgomery.
And this is our story.

Southern Player by Jessica Peterson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The heart of a cowboy with all the charm of a Prince Charming. Luke may be a little rough around the edges, but the way he put Gracie first made him perfection. Southern Player is my first Jessica Peterson novel, but I am confident it won't be my last. It's easy to love a story that doesn't gloss over the heartache, but makes it the backdrop of a fresh start. Gracie wants her voice to be heard and Luke wants her to know that he was always listening. Southern Player is a sweet temptation that is a welcome asset to any lover of romance. I found a new one click author.
