By Layla Hagen / Genre: Powered by Indie

Promise Me Forever: A Single Dad Romance (The Maxwell Brothers)

As a divorced single father, I live by three rules:
1. Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No. Matter. What.
2. Keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum.
3. Turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life.

When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny.
But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I’m breaking it already.

Better Off Dead, Urban Fantasy Druid Romance: Damaged Hero Romance, Morally Grey Hero Romance, Antihero Romance, Barbarian Fantasy Romance (The Lily Harper Series Book 1)

DEATH WAS JUST THE BEGINNING OF MY PROBLEMS.
When dying was the easy part: Confessions of a reluctant soul retriever…

So, long story short, I died when I was hit by a truck full of chickens. Right, I literally got chick-filleted.

But it wasn’t my time to go.

So, why did I go cluck-cluck-die?

Answer: Bill, my guardian angel (obviously light on the ‘guardian’ part).

Now I’ve been offered a second chance at life, courtesy of AfterLife Enterprises. But beware the small print.

Small print? I have to work as a soul retriever, venturing into the bowels of the Underground City (aka hell) to rescue souls that were mistakenly sent there during a Y2K computer glitch. Seriously.

My guidance counselor for this new adventure? None other than Bill—my incompetent, womanizing and completely useless guardian angel.

Enter Tallis Black, a centuries old Druid warrior, and a man who hates himself almost as much as he hates the rest of the world.

Tallis is the ultimate antihero–he’s dark, dangerous, and definitely hiding something.

In fact, I’m not sure why he’s offering to help lead me through the Underground City, but I either accept his offer or risk dying… again.

Between dealing with Bill, learning to wield a sword, navigating the nine circles of hell, and trying to figure out what’s really in it for Tallis, I’m pretty sure I would’ve just been better off dead.

Too Close for Comfort (Firefly Island: Southern Comfort Book 3)

By Melanie Shaw / Genre: Contemporary, Romance

Too Close for Comfort (Firefly Island: Southern Comfort Book 3)

Hank “The Fighter” Comfort

Life doesn’t get much better than this. Or does it?

After years of taking care of everyone else, my life was finally my own. With no one depending on me and no one I was responsible for besides myself, I thought I’d be happy. But I was wrong.

My family is my legacy and curse. Literally. Three generations back a curse was put on Comfort men from a woman jilted at the alter by my grandfather that said all his male heirs would fall in love only to have that love cut short by tragedy. Which is exactly what happened to my dad. After my mama died when I was thirteen Pops turned to the bottle and I ended up raising my brothers. But now, they were grown men and I was ready to start living my life for me.

That is until I opened my door to find a brown-eyed girl who wrapped me around her little finger in a matter of seconds followed shortly by her flustered, stunning, auburn-haired mom who had me rethinking solitary life.

Skylar “The Single Mom” Thompson

Life has a sense of humor. It has to.

After getting my house broken into, my bank accounts drained, and moving across the country on three hours’ notice, I thought nothing could surprise me. But I was wrong.

My daughter is my whole world, and I would do anything to protect her. So, packing up my SUV in the middle of the night after coming home to find our condo was ransacked and an ominous note was left on the fridge was a no-brainer. Forty-eight hours and one cross-country trip where I’d discovered that someone had taken all of the money out of my accounts later, I was sure there were no more surprises in my future.

That is, until I woke up from an unplanned nap to find my daughter on the porch of my sexy new neighbor, whose voice was so deep if it were an Ice Cube song, it would have put my butt to sleep. Maybe all surprises weren’t bad.
