Return to the beloved beach town of Cliffside Bay, where USA Today bestseller Tess Thompson spins another emotional, intriguing tale about overcoming adversity and finding strength in love in this standalone story about Lisa and Rafael.
After years of struggling as a starving actor, Lisa Perry's dreams are finally coming true. Splitting her time between Los Angeles and Cliffside Bay, the young beauty has a successful television miniseries, her first movie role, and quality time with her best friends Maggie and Pepper. Everything is coming up roses until a single tragic moment changes Lisa forever.
Haunted by unshakable memories and near-crippling anxiety, Lisa must face a publicity tour full of crowds and interviews in order to move her budding career forward. And with the help of Rafael Soto, the head of security for Brody and Kara Mullen, she finally begins to relax. Though the pair are as different as night and day, something about her temporary bodyguard soothes the young actress, and soon their relationship turns from professional to passionate.
But what neither anticipates is that despite the obvious threats to a beautiful ingenue, it's actually her protector who stands in harm's way. Will Lisa and Rafael be able to face the danger awaiting him together, or are they destined to accept yet another tragedy they can't stop?
USA Today bestselling author Tess Thompson welcomes you back to Cliffside Bay to explore the rich, heartwarming stories of the characters who brightened the original five novels in the series. Each book in the Cliffside Bay Series is intended to be read and enjoyed as a sweet standalone, but for maximum enjoyment read this binge-worthy series in order.

THE WEDDING DEAL (HEART IN THE GAME) BY CINDI MADSEN
Release Date: March 25, 2019
SYNOPSIS
The rules are about to change…
Former quarterback Lance Quaid just inherited the most losing team in the NFL. He’s got only a few weeks until draft day to turn things around, and after firing more than half his staff, he can’t do it alone. Thankfully, his HR manager is more than capable, if only she’d stop focusing on “due diligence” and stop looking so sexy while she’s yelling at him.
Charlotte James has made a life out of following the rules. But nothing could have prepared her for Lance Quaid––he’s a human resources nightmare. The man is brash, has no filter, and, as her new boss, is constantly relying on her to cover his ass. Which is admittedly quite nice.
When Lance begs her to join him on a trip down the coast for his brother’s wedding so they can finalize details––on a strictly business basis––she agrees...after they fill out the necessary forms, of course. Away from the office, though, sparks start flying as the team starts coming together. But both of them know anything more than the weekend would be a colossally bad idea––after all, the extra paperwork would be a nightmare

The Billionaire's Accidental Baby by Leslie North
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Connie and Brian are a perfect example of why Leslie North is a one click author for me. The Billionaire's Accidental Baby is not a Cinderella story. Prince Charming is not the answer to a prayer, but is more often than not a jerk. However, the lessons hidden within this realistic, sometimes far-fetched romance are life at it's most heartbreaking, but love at it's most sublime. In order to find happiness, we have to take our head out of the clouds and take a chance on listening to our hearts. Sweet words. Emotional delivery. Wonderful story.

A heat wave but no A/C. Your ex dating your nemesis. A murdered juror. Ah, summer in Devil Springs…
Bain Circuit Court Clerk Greer Galloway had never worked with another judge. But all that changes when Special Judge Reed Shelton gets appointed to handle a local notorious criminal case. Delaney Carlisle, the newly-appointed prosecutor, and Rex Roberts, defense counsel constantly argue. And Judge Shelton and Rex seem to hate each other and do little to hide it.

Soon a body washes up at a bridge where two jury views of the crime scene took place. And with plenty of enemies—an ex-wife, a former business partner, and even his own mother—Tobias’s death becomes a murder investigation.
When another body turns up, Greer fears that both deaths are connected to the murder case. But she has little to go on but instinct. And that may not be enough to keep her alive long enough to discover the killer.
A Devilish Deceit is the third book in the Devil Springs Cozy Mysteries Series.

He talks so fast he can be difficult to understand, but seems to be telling me that his late owner didn’t die of natural causes like everyone believes.

SYNOPSIS
Ready to get down right dirty?
Whether you are in the mood for a dreamy rockstar, a cocky bad boy next door, a hunky mountain man or filthy rich billionaires, this 5-book romance boxset will satisfy all your needs.
Book 1 - Leaving to Stay
As a world-renowned rock star, I have everything: women, fame, money.
But the only thing I need now…is her.
I never expect to see her again…Yet fate brings us back together.
And when she comes back into my life, it’s like no years have passed.
I'm addicted again, but this time I'm hooked on her.
And she tells me something that turns my world upside down:
She has two babies, and I’m their Daddy.
Book 2 - Accidental Soulmates
I always get what I want.
That night at Vegas, I wanted her.
So I took her... tasted her delicious lips and devoured every inch of her.
But before I could claim her again, she was gone.
I didn’t see her again, until I received a document called Marriage Certificate.
We were accidentally married.
This was only a mistake. But why did I find myself looking for ways to make this mistake a reality?
Book 3 - Can’t Get Over You
She is the most anti-social, stubborn, nerdy pain in the a** I’ve ever met.
But she’s also determined, intelligent, and kinda cute... I mean, really cute.
No matter how hard I try, I can’t stop thinking about her.
Truth be told … I can’t stop wanting her.
We shared a kiss at my sister’s wedding.
I took her v*rginity before graduation.
And that’s supposed to be the end of the story.
A few years later, I became her new boss, and she wouldn’t let me meet her 6-year-old son.
And everything finally starts to make sense…
Book 4 - Marrying the Wrong Twin
I’m totally screwed. I just said “I do” to the hottest man I’ve ever seen.
And he’s my future husband’s twin brother.
I mean, how could I know he’s the wrong one? They look exactly the same.
Now there’s no way out of this, so we’ll just have to keep playing the game.
We are married on paper only, for our family businesses to thrive.
It’s only business, a partnership kind of deal, and falling for him wasn't part of the arrangement.
But why do I keep recalling our first sinful night, when he took me right there in his suite?
Why can’t I stop imagining all the tender, passionate kisses, his huge hands all over my body and the rough, hard sex?
Oh, screw it! The marriage might be fake, but the baby I’m carrying is 100% real…
Book 5 - Deep in the Mountains
I came to the Smokey Mountains a broken man.
I needed to get away from my past, and that was when I became a ranger here.
For two years, my life is dull and in lack of passion.
But the first time I laid eyes on Ayla Winter, I knew I was in trouble.
She was charming, vulnerable, and utterly irresistible.
She was like no other woman I had ever met.
How could I have known that one surreal day with her would make me second-guess it all?
And how could I have known that I was about to be a father?
Escape into the world of five huge and filthy alpha males and let them entertain you all night long.

TWO TO TANGO (LOVE IN THE VINEYARDS) BY KATE KISSET
Release Date: March 28, 2019
SYNOPSIS
An unexpected roommate. An unlikely dance partner. A match made in wine country.
Jake Martelli’s busy-body relatives have pulled a fast one. They've humiliated the hunky San Francisco sportscaster by buying him in front of a sold-out crowd at the annual Sweetheart’s Auction. The geriatric mod squad own Jake now, and are forcing him to enter their small-town’s cockamamie dance competition. They’ve tricked Jake into staying at their Napa Valley guest house with a beautiful woman from his past.
Poor Scarlett Halle has no idea she’s being set up.
The pretty baker with two left feet was only in town for a business deal. When her good friend offered her a free vacation home in wine country, Scarlett didn’t know Jake Martelli would be staying in the same house.
There isn’t much to do in this sleepy town, so when swoony Jake takes her in his arms and asks her to practice dancing with him, how can she say no?
The temporary roommates aren’t looking for partners, but it seems fate, and two quirky matchmakers have other plans.
Will Jake and Scarlett discover a three-minute tango is the dance of a lifetime?
.
If you enjoy tropes, Two to Tango covers several: Fish Out of Water, Accidental Roommate, Matchmaker, and Second Chance Romance. (Scarlett and Jake met before, years ago and have never forgotten each other.)
.
If you liked the movie The Holiday (Cameron Diaz & Jude Law) and watch Dancing with the Stars, imagine the setting in Napa Valley wine country and this is the story for you!
Two to Tango is a standalone, sweet with heat, romantic comedy. (The love scenes happen behind closed doors.) Although you don’t have to read any of Kate’s other stories to enjoy this one, Love in the Vineyards fans will get a kick out of seeing favorite characters from other stories, as they get to know the Santino brothers’ lovable grandmother, Mimi, their quirky great-aunt Cha-Cha, and all their gorgeous cousins. (Although Two to Tango has been re-written, the story was originally released in Marina Adair's St. Helena Vineyard Kindle World)

REVIEW: TWO TO TANGO (LOVE IN THE VINEYARDS) BY KATE KISSET
My rating: 5 of stars
Have you ever felt like you want to cry, but you can't help but laugh? You may be experiencing Kate Kisset syndrome. Kisset speaks to hearts with humor, yet never holds back on emotion. Hidden inside the angst and wit are serious issues wrapped in wisdom and laced with hope. Two to Tango keeps the mood light with mischievous matchmakers, clueless targets and boatload of unforgettable characters.
MOMMY LOVES THE ROCKSTAR (MOMMY'S LITTLE MATCHMAKERS) BY SHANAE JOHNSON, JANAE RONNIESHA
Release Date: March 29, 2019
SYNOPSIS
Will this single mom and former boy band member follow the melody of their hearts to a happily-ever-after? Read FREE in Kindle Unlimited
Kiara Harper has a history of being unlucky in love and being an overworked single mom to Camille, her feisty pre-teen leaves little time to try and change her status. Resigned to live vicariously through the heroines in her favorite romance novels, her biggest fantasy comes true when she literally runs into her ultimate celebrity crush at her daughter’s school.
Jett Anderson has outgrown the image of hot boy band member and is ready to lead an average life. Teaching music to rowdy middle schoolers in St. Judith, Virginia seems normal enough, but were music teachers supposed to have fangirls? Jett isn’t prepared for the frazzled single mom who disrupts the harmony of his new life, but he’s in no hurry for her to pause and rewind, either.
With the holidays fast approaching, Camille has one wish—okay, two wishes. She’d like a new cellphone and for her mom to find happiness. Deciding that the new music teacher is her mother’s perfect match, it’s up to Camille to play Santa’s matchmaker and help them find their way to a holiday happily ever after.

REVIEW: MOMMY LOVES THE ROCKSTAR (MOMMY'S LITTLE MATCHMAKERS) BY SHANAE JOHNSON, JANAE RONNIESHA
Mommy Loves the Rockstar by Shanae Johnson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Growing up is hard to do. Especially when you have a stunted social life, a frazzled mom and a phone that's on it's last leg. What's a girl to do, when it feels like the end of the world, is fast approaching? Of course at twelve, everything seems like the end of the world, but Camille has a plan. Mommy Loves the Rockstar is a reminder of teenage crushes and boy band music. Johnson and Ronniesha take a stroll down memory lane with this sweetheart, mother and daughter. Camille is a pre-teen with a precocious attitude and mischievous heart. Kiara is a working mom in need of a little fun. The answer to their prayers comes in the form of Jett Anderson, a music teacher with a not so hidden past. A childhood crush could become adult reality. Heartwarming fun.
