BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!!! K. BROMBERG’S LATEST JUST WENT LIVE!!! And now the “duet” is complete!!! ➔ The Catch (The Player Duet) ➔➔➔➔➔
Good morning everybody, and happy NEW RELEASE DAY!!It’s the last big release day of the month, and it is a good one! Coming in at 85+ new books, and I’ll be checking throughout the day in case I’ve missed any, or any late bloomers go live a little later. 😉 Also don’t forget to check out yesterday’s list (it’s up to 17, now) ➔ 15 Earlybird Book Releases
I’ve highlighted a bunch of great-sounding ones, but some sound extra-enticing to me. 😉 Like… Make Me Stay (’cause book #1 in the series was so good, and a fellow reader told me this one was even better!! I believe they are standalones), Until It Fades (that one up there to the left! Heck yes, another awesome author, and the premise sounds perfect for me! She saves a man, and only once the police show up does she realize he’s a famous hockey player), Raw Need (Cherrie Lynn???!!! YES PLEASE!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE her, and this blurb SERIOUSLY gave me a blurb jolt. I think I just found my next read!!! She’s pregnant and her husband dies, and she escapes her pain by listening to her favorite music, and then she meets the lead singer… *gasp!!* BUT!!!! OMG THE BUT!!!!! It’s the last part of the blurb that gave me that jolt…). MINE!!!! Easy Nights (she’s abused by her husband, and her best friend from high school, now an MMA fighter is there for her…. Oooooooh her husband is gonna get it!!), and The Coppersmith Farmhouse (okay that’s from the reader recommendations section, but this one is much-loved by a few of my book buddies, and the latest recommendation told me it was a total KA feel!!!). OMG I so HAVE to read this. In fact there are three books in the series now. :D!!
P.S. Let me know if I’m missing any or if you loved any (from this list or elsewhere).

I just read them (took me less than 24 hrs to read both). Has the alpha male and mystery/suspense to it. And of course there were parts of the book that I would bust out laughing so hard that my 9 year old daughter would say “Guess you’re liking your new book?” Very Kristen Ashley feel to it!! Can’t wait for the next book! Hope you have a great day!!!
