Not for sightseeing, but to research the story her internationally awarded journalist father was investigating when he was accidentally killed. Cleo’s tempted. Is she brave enough to look the past in the eye and set herself free, or will she keep hiding? Cleo was a confident adolescent who adored her father, until her mother explains after his death that he’d never loved Cleo. Cleo sees lies everywhere, but it’s time to take her life back. She accepts Jack’s job offer. She doesn’t expect to find his mix of intelligence, stubbornness and charm so compelling, doesn’t expect him to understand her dilemma hearing people talk about her father, doesn’t expect to want to touch him—all the time. Battling writer’s block, Jack latches onto the old story of the long unsolved assassination of a Scandinavian PM as the basis for a thriller. Finding Hugo Montford’s daughter in Helsinki strikes him as a good omen. That’s before he discovers she has secrets making her doubt herself. She’s smart, loyal, gorgeous, everything he’s looking for in a woman, if only he can convince her to take a chance on him. When people unhappy with the direction of his research threaten Cleo, Jack calls a halt. Sensing there’s more to learn about her father, Cleo pushes to continue. Can Cleo and Jack agree on next steps, or will Cleo remain shackled to her past? Sometimes you have to let go of what’s killing you, even if it’s killing you to let go. Fans of sensual romances with strong characters showing emotional depth plus some international intrigue will enjoy the twists and turns before Cleo and Jack find their happy ending. This best-selling author is known for her characters, clever dialogue and unique stories that will introduce you to new worlds. Excerpt “You’ve gone to a lot of trouble to try and hire me.” He stalled, a frown forming between his eyes. Cleo’s gut told her to get out now. “I need a plausible reason in the next thirty seconds, or I’ll walk.” She’d learned the seductiveness of secrets at her father’s knee. Jack’s mesmerising eyes, deep as an ocean, were on her now, and the secrets they promised had already teased her at unexpected times in the last week. She’d be a fool to trust a man with secrets. “Because you’re Hugo Montford’s daughter.” Halfway to her feet, her legs refused to hold her, and she sat down again with a thump. Damn you! Damn you! Damn you! She’d been unconsciously fumbling toward this awareness since his arrival in Angelika’s office. The news he was a writer should have cemented it. His persistence was akin to the slyest reporters and journalists who’d hounded her family after her father’s death, comparable to Paul Jacob’s pre-planned accidental meeting with her. This time she wasn’t grief-stricken and without defences. “You are Hugo Montford’s daughter, aren’t you?” he prodded further at her silence. My only claim to fame—I’m the daughter of a famous, dead, investigative journalist. “Why is that relevant?” We both know it isn’t bloody relevant unless you want to use me.

 ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Australian Jennifer Raines writes sensuous contemporary romances set mainly, but not exclusively, in Australia – think Malta, Finland, New Zealand or ? A dreamer and an optimist, her stories are a delicious cocktail of passion, mutual respect and loyalty because she still believes in happily-ever-afters. Jennifer fell in love with romance as a teenager. Starting with historical romance. Everything in the school library and then a personal treasured collection of Georgette Heyer, hard copies and paperbacks.

Jennifer is a member of Romance Writers of New Zealand, winning the Pacific Hearts competition twice, including in 2019 with Grace Under Fire, the sequel to Taylor’s Law.

Her desk overlooks a park which nourishes her soul when she raises her head from her keyboard. She gets some of her best ideas walking—anywhere—or while doing physical activity. Yes, Virginia, housework does have a purpose. While Jennifer adores historical romance, she chose to write contemporary because she thought (wrongly) it needed less research while she was holding down a full-time job. Jennifer writes a monthly blog posted on her website at https://jenniferrainesauthor.com or you’ll find her at https://www.facebook.com/jenniferrainesauthor or https://www.instagram.com/romanceauthorjen/  WITCHY WOMAN Vampire Quest – Book One Erotic Paranormal Romance AMAZON: https://tinyurl.com/mw84kawx Blurb: A witch who’s ditched sorcery…a down-on-his-luck vampire… and one fateful encounter between them that could be pure magic. Bored with getting whatever she wants whenever she wants it, Wren’s now earning things the mortal way — through hard work… specifically erotic dancing. As a newly turned vampire, Roman dreads eternity until he chances upon Wren at a Las Vegas strip club during her nightly show. Desire sparks. Lips meet. Trouble brews from the vamp who turned Roman, and also from the vile warlock who’s determined to make Wren his…forcing her and Roman to battle dark magic and blood lust to turn a disturbing future into their shared paradise. As they embark on their Vampire Quest. Excerpt ROMAN She raises her face. I still. The surroundings grow quiet. Colors dim. Only she exists. Her delicate features seem too ethereal for a witch, better suited for a fae. Her plush lips contradict the notion. They’re made for pleasure. Something stirs within me. If I were still alive, I’d wager my heart is quickening. Her gaze remains down. That won’t do. Look at me. See me. Or not. Giving into my basest vampire urges isn’t wise. And won’t do her any good, either. However, I can’t stop trembling at her presence, scent, and blood. With one sniff, I can tell anyone’s blood type. How, I don’t know. I’m new at this vampire stuff. The stripper’s AB positive, the same as me. Nice, except it’s the only blood capable of satisfying my oppressive hunger. Again, I haven’t a clue why I know that, but not even O, the universal donor, can do the trick. A and B have no effect on me either, similar to booze. They’re wasted plasma. “Hey, babe!” A tiger shifter rushes the stage. She glances up. I stare. Sooty lashes ring her dark-green eyes. The vibrant color complements her creamy complexion. A small mole decorates her right cheek. Babes like her populated my teenage wet dreams. Being a man now has only stoked my enthusiasm for… She scans the crowd, her gaze nearing me. I tense, hoping she won’t look past. She does. I droop. She pauses then glances back and meet my eyes. Holy… A current similar to an electric shock tears through me. An exceedingly pleasant feeling that warms my insides and curls my toes. I’m not sure if she did something magic to produce what I’m experiencing, or if my feelings are from her natural allure. Either way, it doesn’t matter. I’m so ready for more. This babe’s gotta be mine—heart, body, and…blood—no matter what it takes. My vampire side refuses to settle for anything less.

Hun-Came has ruled death for millennia, and he won't release his human vessel without extracting a price that could destroy everything—and everyone—she loves.

Return to the Guatemala’s jungles with author Lisa Dietrich in her exciting sequel to In the Silence of Darkness. This time Niki is battling not only to save the people she loves but her own soul. Some bloodlines can't be outrun, some hungers can't be denied, and some attractions are dangerous enough to wake the dead. Excerpt So much blood. I awoke with the scent of blood in my nostrils and the sharp metallic taste of it in my mouth. As the warm liquid slid down my throat, I groaned with pleasure. The corpse lay at my feet. Judging by the haircut, he was a young marine out for an early morning run. He’d been ambushed, his jugular vein pierced by dagger-like teeth before being dragged into the underbrush by the neck. Hun-Came’s voice sounded inside my head. “You cannot deny what you are, my little vessel. You hunger for his blood. Your jaguar wahy craves flesh and blood.” “No!” I shouted angrily. Sobbing, I thrust my hands over the marines wound to try and staunch the blood flow, but it was no use. There would be no saving him. Hun-Came had co-opted my wahy, releasing me at the precise moment of the kill to demonstrate he was in control of our relationship. He was using my shadow soul to hunt and kill for sport. “This is what happens when mortals presume to negotiate with gods,” Hun-Came whispered through my mind, his voice like obsidian blades wrapped in velvet. “Your boundaries mean nothing. Your rituals are like children’s games to me. I can collapse the boundaries between the supernatural realm and this one at my choosing.” I scrambled away from the body, my hands leaving bloody prints on the dry earth. The sun was just beginning to rise, casting long shadows through the trees along the jogging path. This was Hun-Came’s message—delivered in blood and death at dawn after my midnight ritual. A divine temper tantrum. “He was innocent,” I choked out, bile rising in my throat as I looked at the young man’s face. His eyes were still open, frozen in terror. What had he seen in his final moments? My face? Or the jaguar-form of my wahy with Hun-Came’s death mask superimposed over it? Don't Miss the Beginning of the Romance....  About the Author-

EXCERPT:
Max smiled. “So, taking in strays runs in the family?” he jested, giving himself a little mental pat on the back when her melodic laughter reached his ears.
“I suppose you could call it that. At first, they offered room and board in exchange for help around the Inn or some other kind of trade if people didn’t quite have the money to pay. After a few years, people started to pay cash and the business grew, with some coming to stay while they visited the countryside or traveled through on their way further north. And then there’s the ginger biscuits, of course.”
Max raised a brow as he finished chewing his bite of bacon. “Ginger biscuits? I think Brent mentioned something about that last night.” He looked down at his plate as if one of the aforementioned treats would appear there out of thin air, but none did.
Lucy smiled at him over her tea cup as she took a sip. “Of course, he did. Brent is always the first one to brag about this place.” She nodded toward his plate. “I don’t have any for you now, but every year on Christmas Eve, the Inn opens its doors to the town and anyone who wants to wander in, decorate a biscuit and enjoy a spot of tea for the holidays.” She looked around the small kitchen wistfully before meeting his gaze again. “It’s all a part of the history of this place, letting the town gather here at least one day a year. And it’s up to me now to keep it going.”
Her smile faltered when she finished and her eyes looked shiny with unshed moisture. The sight of her in distress caused an ache to form in Max’s chest. Feeling something so intensely for someone so quickly startled him, but the sense of wonder that followed washed away his skepticism.
Be sure to grab this fabulous story of sweet holiday romance filled with good food and a happily ever after. Sydney Scott's characters are entertaining and perfect for fans of rom-coms!
~*~

EXCERPT:
Max smiled. “So, taking in strays runs in the family?” he jested, giving himself a little mental pat on the back when her melodic laughter reached his ears.
“I suppose you could call it that. At first, they offered room and board in exchange for help around the Inn or some other kind of trade if people didn’t quite have the money to pay. After a few years, people started to pay cash and the business grew, with some coming to stay while they visited the countryside or traveled through on their way further north. And then there’s the ginger biscuits, of course.”

Best-selling author, Isobel Reed brings readers back to Woodvalley Pines where small town firefighters set hearts ablaze. Fans of Elsie Silver’s Powerless and Lucy Score’s Protecting What’s Mine will swoon for Isobel Reed’s firefighter heroes and the feisty women who go toe-to-toe with them. Hitched is a second chance romance where two high school sweethearts are thrown back into each other’s lives after a decade apart.
Old flames burn the hottest, but can they survive the heat?
It was safe to say Bethany Mayer was questioning her life choices as she stuffed four layers of her tulle wedding dress into her ex-boyfriend’s pickup truck. She thought she had it all figured out. Move home to Woodvalley Pines. Marry her long-term boyfriend. Open her own medical practice. But one day, one decision, changed her life forever. Now, instead of being the talk of the town for her superior skills as a doctor, she’s the subject of the small town’s unhinged rumor mill.
Being his ex’s getaway driver as she ditches her own wedding wasn’t exactly how firefighter, Benny, thought his day was going to go. He’d actually been counting on finally getting some closure after a decade apart. This had to be the complete opposite of that, right? Now his first and only love was back in town and suddenly single. Never mind the deranged rumors flying around town about her runaway bride stunt, he was more scared of the truth. And the kind of trouble he was about to get into now he knows she’s sticking around.
It’s not only their shared past that’s unravelling as Benny and Bethany struggle to fight the spark that still burns bright. The flames may never die—but can love rise from the wreckage they left behind?

About the Author-
Isobel was born and raised in London. While she’s a city girl at heart, she loves daydreaming about running away to a charming small town—though she’s not entirely sure her husband and son would share her enthusiasm for the move. When she’s not writing small-town romantic comedies or growing unhealthily attached to the characters in her books, you can find her reading, chasing after her very active toddler, or attempting to channel her inner domestic goddess in the kitchen (with varying degrees of success).
Known for her witty dialogue and swoon-worthy small-town heroes, Isobel signed with Inkspell Publishing in 2021. The following year, she released Love Tools, the first book in her four-book Bluestone Series. In early 2024, she launched Toasted, the debut novel of her seven-book Love Burns Series, which will roll out over the next year.

Excerpt
Winnie woke up naturally, the chirps and rustles of nature her alarm clock. On any other Thursday, Winnie would be up for at least an hour, showered, and on her third cup of coffee.
Now, she wiggled burrowed deeper into the mattress and curled around Mari. She adored her girlfriend all the time, but she was made for cuddling. Every time Mari griped about gaining a pound, Winnie silently prayed it would stay. She adored her Mari’s curves, could get lost in her every dip and valley. Winnie gently squeezed the curve of Mari’s bottom, reveling in the soft moans she made as she stirred.
“What’s going on back there?” Mari asked, sleep coating her voice.
Winnie kissed the back of her neck, the fine hairs at the nape ticking her nose. “Nothing, just thankful we’re here.”

There is something to be said for peace. We are hearing a lot about peace these days in the news but I want to talk about personal peace.
Have you ever been in a situation where each day was a stress-filled and anxiety ridden adventure? Maybe you worked each day in a job that didn’t appreciate you and always asked more than you were willing to give? Or you were in a relationship with someone who made you doubt your own beliefs?
Handling the insecurity over believing what you know to be true. The doubts, the fear…
I have worked at a job for over ten years that I hated. Not all of it, but the constant anxiety that I wasn’t good enough, the snarky comments rather than support. It wears on you. But when it’s a job and it pays the bills, you put up with a lot, even your sanity.
I have also been in a relationship where peace wasn’t an option. Every comment was met with a pushback. I began to question my own thoughts and beliefs. Did that really happen? I’d wake up with fear and questions. I’d be afraid to even speak my thoughts that they might be twisted.
But one day, I found peace. I let go of both of those things. Let them go. And the silence is so fulfilling. Being with someone who accepts without question is one of my blessings. It's a peaceful relationship. I wish I could share that feeling with everyone.
A part of my peace is not about who is right or wrong. It’s about letting go and seeking my own soul’s quiet. I find that miracle in the smallest things, a text from a loved one, a kiss from a pet, a breeze on a summer’s day. It’s not easy, but my own peace is so worth it. Being right won’t bring about any prize. I won’t win a lifetime supply of anything. I won’t become a millionaire. But with peace, I will enjoy my life so much more.
Our world is a constant barrage of negativity. People fighting and dismissing others because of beliefs or even the color of their skin. We live in a world absent of peace. Fear, doubts, anxiety swamping everyone. But when you have known peace, even in one corner of your world…it becomes easier to seek it everywhere.
Maybe the songwriters were correct…. We simply have to give peace a chance.
