Denver owes Sheena. He spent years watching from afar and making sure she was all right after his father’s illegal activities caused her father’s death. So when Sheena rolls up to the ranch looking to call in the favor he promised, Denver can’t say no. He’ll help her get her axe-throwing bar up and running by Christmas, and consider his debt square.

Posted December 14, 2025 by Marsha in Booksprout ARC, Contemporary Romance, Paranormal Romance, Series, Sexual Content, Small Town Romance, Time Slip Romance, Tule Publishing / 0 Comments

The point of magic is not to understand it. The point is not to waste it…

Paige Larsen is riding high on her future when she drops into a bar on New Year’s Eve 2019 for a celebratory drink. Will Weber, too, is excited about his life’s direction. Despite clashing personalities—and unexpected physical attraction—they quickly become friends while grooving to 1970s music in this unique joint.

But when Paige and Will each try to find the bar the following day, they realize the night was even more magical than they believed. It seems this bar appears for only a handful of hours every two years in an abandoned city lot on December 31. What’s more, Paige and Will are living in different timelines two years apart.

Over a span of eight years and a multitude of life changes, Paige and Will connect deeply in a fantasy situation that allows them to be their messy, imperfect, vulnerable selves.

Then suddenly, the enchantment—and the bar—disappear for good. Can love offer the magic they need to create a real-life happy ever after?

Rancher’s New Beginning by Olivia Kay

Posted December 14, 2025 by Marsha in Booksprout ARC, Kindle Unlimited, Modern Western Romance, Series, Sexual Content, Small Town Romance / 0 Comments

I knew ranch life would be messy… but I didn’t expect it to personally attack me.

One minute I’m a newlywed trying to waddle my very pregnant self across our porch, and the next I’m watching my sexy cowboy husband argue with a tractor like it owes him money.

And somehow, between the broken fences, the weather, and Boone stealing every baby sock we own, Tanner Briggs and I are supposed to be building our happily‑ever-after at Rising Star Ranch.

He’s calm, collected, and unfairly gorgeous. I’m hormonal, sleep‑deprived, and absolutely not immune to the way he touches me in the bedroom.

Then the baby comes early. The barn roof gives up on life while revealing past secrets. And the whole town starts treating us like their favorite reality TV show.

I watch him holding our daughter, and it makes me fall for him all over again.

Then life throws a bigger curveball than either of us is ready for.

The scariest part of loving Tanner isn’t the chaos; it’s realizing how easily I could lose everything I’m fighting for.

Can they build a future with staying power?

But an emergency at Foster Construction lassos Rhett into wrangling renovations—and his feelings—on the Miles’ ranch.

Norah Miles is done putting her dreams on hold. With her family’s redesigned guest cabins nearly ready for tourists, she’s set her sights on Bozeman and a fresh start in interior design. But their magazine feature morphs into a high-stakes design contest, throwing Norah’s plans—and nerves—into chaos. To make matters worse, the only person who can help her finish the project on time is her younger brother’s best friend, the rugged cowboy she’s trying to forgive and forget.

As sawdust flies, Norah and Rhett can’t ignore the sparks igniting between them. Will they risk their hearts for a chance at love, or let fear ride them out of each other’s lives for good?

Forever in Alaska by Belle Calhoune

Posted December 8, 2025 by Marsha in Christmas Romance, Contemporary Romance, Forever (Grand Central Publishing), Holiday Romance, NetGalley, Series, Sexual Content, Small Town Romance / 0 Comments

The youngest of three brothers, Landon Stone would do anything for his grandmother, Hattie—even return to his hometown of Moose Falls. Hattie’s heart is set on her grandsons taking over the family business—and finding their happily-ever-afters in Alaska. When Hattie gets the idea that Landon is romantically entangled with his gorgeous colleague, Bailey Daniels, Landon doesn’t just go along with it—he asks Bailey to join the ruse.

Bailey isn’t sure if she agrees because she adores Hattie for helping her family through their darkest times . . . or because she finds the charmingly nerdy Landon completely irresistible. Either way, it’s extremely easy to appear totally into him. But as they collaborate at work—and after hours—to make Hattie’s Christmas extra special, Bailey and Landon’s relationship starts to feel all too real. What if the only people Landon and Bailey are fooling this season… are themselves?

As a busy ER intern, Holly Vincent doesn’t have time for extracurricular activities.

But when she’s stranded in a broken elevator for a few hours with irritatingly cocky, hotter-than-the-sun, downstairs neighbour Danny Colton, she decides to bend her rules and let the filthy-mouthed hottie talk her into having some fun.

Drummer by night, and maintenance man by day, Danny Colton is more than happy to show bookish Dr Prim what she’s been missing out on. After all, what else are they going to do until they’re rescued?

But when it’s back to reality, one wild tryst night isn’t enough for Danny, and whilst they’re drawn to each other like magnets, Holly has no time for dating between study and the unrelenting exhaustion of shiftwork.

Suddenly, though, Danny’s world changes in the form of a surprise billion-dollar inheritance, and he figures it could be the key to winning Holly’s heart. Wrong. He soon finds out that money can’t buy him love. For that, he’s going to need to be much more creative!

A stranger with no name. A family with too much to hide. And a storm that could bury the truth forever.

Private investigator Samantha Price thought winter in Marietta, Montana, might slow things down. But with the high-profile trial of Benjamin Bennet dominating headlines, and her agency, Honor’s Edge Investigations, busier than ever, there’s no rest in sight. Especially when a rugged John Doe—who looks alarmingly like Nate Bennet—walks in seeking help to uncover his past.

DNA says he’s family. But there’s no record of who he was before. No name. No past. No trail to follow.

The deeper Sam and Nate dig into the tangled branches of the Bennet family tree, the more disturbing the picture becomes. As long-buried secrets come to light, their search for answers draws unwanted attention—and someone will do anything to keep those answers hidden.

When a dangerous storm descends on the mountains, Marietta is cut off—and so are Sam and Nate. Now, the clock is ticking. Can they uncover the truth in time to give a man back his name…without losing their lives in the process?

A Holiday Wedding Rescue by Jeannie Watt

Posted December 6, 2025 by Marsha in Booksprout ARC, Christmas Romance, Contemporary Romance, Holiday Romance, Previously Published, Series, Sexual Content, Small Town Romance, Tule Publishing / 0 Comments

Snow is falling, tempers are flaring… but opposites attract…

Stevie Evans is over the moon when her best friend announces she’s getting married. She’s all in for the planning… until she learns she’ll be working side-by-side with the bride’s oh-so-serious brother, Brant. Years ago, sparks flew between them—of the argument variety—and she’s kept her distance ever since. But this time, the aisle is too short to avoid him, and the spark feels suspiciously like attraction.

Brant Gilroy likes his life neat, predictable, and well-structured—unlike Stevie, who’s basically a walking bundle of chaos. But with his career suddenly on shaky ground, and his sister’s dream wedding set for the family’s tree farm, he can’t say no to helping… even if it means teaming up with the one woman who drives him up a wall.

As wedding decorations are hung and snowflakes fall, their clash of styles starts to look a lot like sizzling chemistry. But can two former enemies pull off a picture-perfect wedding—and maybe discover they’re the perfect match?
