Hope's River: A Small-town, slow burn romance (Hope River Book 1)by Margaret McHeyzer

She’s into renovation. But she never expected a love life overhaul…

Hope Sawyer enjoys getting her hands dirty. And while she’s killing it flipping houses for a living, deep down she worries her happiness isn’t built on a strong foundation. So when her drunk boyfriend attempts to beat her, she jumps in her truck and drives until fate delivers her to a tiny town, a dilapidated Victorian, and her next big project.

River Lockwood remains haunted. Still burning with regret over the one that got away, the master electrician has constructed a lonely life in a place with a name drenched in personal history. But when he offers to help rewire an old house a newcomer just purchased, he’s amazed it’s the woman he lost all those years ago.

Shaken to reconnect with the only man she truly loved, Hope struggles with the memory of his betrayal. And though they grow closer the more time they spend together, River fears his dream girl won’t forgive him for a sin he didn’t actually commit.

Can this star-crossed couple renovate their hearts and build the relationship they deserve?

Hope’s River is the charming first tale in the Hope River contemporary romance series. If you like second chances, quirky communities, and undeniable chemistry, then you’ll adore Margaret McHeyzer’s fresh fixer-upper.

Broken by Lies (Bound and Broken Book 1)by Rebecca Shea

I had no idea how much I would love Alex the day he walked into my life.
He changed everything.
The way I breathed.
The way I thought.
The way I loved.
He brought me back to life.
He gave me strength and a safe place to land.

And then he broke me.

Finding Emilia was a chance to do something good for once in my life.
I wanted to change.
She believed I was her savior.
I ached to be.
She found her way into my heart and claimed it as her safe place.
I should be telling her the truth about me…instead I break her with lies.

Hard Code: A Laugh-Out-Loud Workplace Romantic Comedy (Hard Stuff)by Misha Bell

My new assignment at work: test out toys. Yup, that kind.

Well, technically, it’s to test the app that controls the toys remotely.

One problem? The showgirl who’s supposed to test the hardware (as in, the actual toys) joins a nunnery.

Another problem? This project is important to my Russian boss, the broody, mouthwateringly sexy Vlad, a.k.a. The Impaler.

There’s only one solution: test both the software and the hardware myself… with his help.

NOTE: This is a standalone, raunchy, slow-burn romantic comedy featuring a quirky, nerdy heroine, her hot, mysterious Russian boss, and two guinea pigs who may or may not be into scissoring each other. If any of the above is not your cup of tea, run far, far away. Otherwise, buckle in for a snort-water-up-the-nose-funny, feel-good ride.

Corrupted Crownby Kristen Luciani

My best friend’s sister needs protection and I need a wife.

Kyla Costigan.
I can’t even say her name without my mouth twisting like I’ve just tasted poison.
Because that’s exactly what she is – vicious and stubborn enough to battle the devil himself.

She also happens to be the sexiest, most gorgeous woman I’ve ever laid eyes on…and my best friend’s little sister.
Time has transformed every inch of her into a sultry vixen, but she still has a black heart trapped inside a body I’d die for.

Kyla is also the only woman who can to turn me into a power-hungry and ruthless animal, and right now, that’s exactly who I have to be if I’m going to save my family.
Turns out, we need each other.

So the arrangement has been made.
She-Devil is about to become a Mrs.
My Mrs.
That is, if we don’t kill each other first.
I’m going to need a bigger pitchfork if I have any shot of surviving.
