Any Day Now by Lani Lynn Vale
Series: KPD SWAT Generation 2.0 #8
Genres: Romantic Suspense

Amelia loves her good friend, Avery. So much so that she agrees to do the stupidest thing ever.

A stranger photo shoot.

You know the type. The photographer takes photos of two individuals. Two individuals that, until that day, have never met in their life.

The moment she shows up at the photo shoot, she knows that she made a terrible decision.

Why? Because the total stranger about to be in an intimate photo shoot with her is the hottest thing that’s ever walked the streets of Kilgore, Texas. If not the entire US of A.

***

Adam wasn’t sure why the hell he agreed to something so stupid.

Call it temporary lapse of sanity.

When the photographer who shot his photo for the Kilgore Police Department’s benefit calendar asked him for a favor, he couldn’t say no. Not without looking like a jerk seeing as it was benefiting the Fallen Officer Foundation that he played a rather large part in.

Whatever it was that made him agree, he quickly realizes that it’s not worth it. Not when he walks into the studio and sees the massive bed with blood-red sheets dominating the middle of the room.

So uncomfortable he is at the sight, he’s about to head straight out the door and not look back when she walks in.
Amelia steals his breath away with just one glance, and all of a sudden, getting this stranger into his arms with his mouth on hers sounds like the best idea ever.

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Amelia is Silas’ daughter which means she has Sam and Sebastian for brothers as well as James for a brother in-law. Only a man as strong as they could ever manage to get pass them and be with her. Honestly I expected them to beat the crap out of Adam the moment they learn he and Amelia is dating.

That being said I think Adam handles them well. He is Jack and Winter’s son so you know he has what it takes to be with Amelia. Although he doesn’t have the same computer geekiness that his parents share. He is on the SWAT team which he loves.

The chemistry with these two is off the charts from the moment they met. I have been waiting for this book all year. Silas is one of my favorite LLV characters so a book with his baby girl was top of my to be read list. Amelia has a rebel streak a mile wide and the photo shoot is beyond hot. It just got hotter from there.

There is more than enough drama and action in this one. I mean Amelia isn’t one to take anything off of anyone. One thing I love about this one is how easily Adam and Amelia fall into their relationship. They don’t fight the attraction or pull. It is there and they are ready to ride the wave of lust that will lead to love.

This is simply the best book of this series thus far in my book. It has set the bar high for every other book left in the series. Although I’m certain they will have no problem measuring up.

    This so sounds like my kind of book and one that I could really get into reading. I like the cover but not a fan of the beard.

Title: You’ve Got Hate Mail
Series: Accidentally Infamous
Book #: 1
Release Date: June 16, 2026
Ebook, Audiobook and Paperback 

Narrators: Kristina Ruth Zaharek, Gregory Salinas, supporting cast: Samantha Brentmoor and Stella Hunter

I should’ve worn underwear that day. 

I’d have far less hate mail in my inbox. I’d also still have a job. 
 
But I didn’t wear underwear. And I had a wardrobe malfunction on a livestream. 
 
So now I’m the proud owner of the internet’s most famous… you know. 
 
The good news? I’ve been invited to hide from my sudden infamy at a closed winery with other women who’ve suffered their own five minutes of shame. 
 
The bad news? The winery has a live-in handyman. 
 
A competent, compassionate, patient, sexy, single dad handyman. 
 
Whom I met when I punched him in the face. 
 
Accidentally, of course. But I still get why he’s happy keeping his distance from me. 
 
But when we find out the winery that’s saving my life is in danger of foreclosure, he and I become accidental partners. 
 
No big deal, working with a guy that I’m falling harder for each day. 
 
I’m already the internet’s favorite punching bag. Why not add an unrequited crush to my life? 
 
But what if it’s not unrequited after all? 
 
From USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author Pippa Grant comes a funny, heartwarming, swoony romance perfect for readers who love protective book boyfriends, found sisterhoods, slow burns, epically awkward meet-cutes, and love conquering all. 
 
Content note: This book contains toxic family and references to bullying, suicide, abuse, and the off-page cancer death of the hero’s first wife several years before the story begins.

Unfortunate Games by Nichole Rose

Her fortune wasn't supposed to be her fate.

Emelia
Drunkenly folding my way into a future with the hottest goalie in the league wasn't how I intended to spend Saturday night, but here we are.

Clearly, my besties should not be in charge of Girl's Night activities.

One cootie catcher later, and Royce Elliot is determined to make this wild prediction a reality.

I'm absolutely not interested. Until I am.

He's supposed to be my client, not the man I can't resist.

But with every touch and every kiss, this feels less like a game…
and more like forever.

Royce
I know hockey, not how to win over a stubborn, fiercely independent publicist.

But the second I meet Emelia Jónsson, I stop caring about shutouts.
I care about her.

She says her fortune teller doesn't mean anything—that it's just a childish game.
I say fate handed me an opening, and I'm not going to miss my shot.

I didn't expect her to ignite the way she does for me.
And I never imagined I’d fall this hard, this fast.

She swears this can't happen.
She's wrong.

I'm not backing down until she admits the truth.
We were never just a game.
The two of us were fate.

Tropes include:

🏒 Hockey Romance
🏒He Falls First
🏒 Forced Proximity
🏒 Happily Ever After

Rafe Montero keeps his world quiet, controlled, and carefully structured.

As a wounded veteran turned demanding boss, the last thing he wants is a distraction, especially in the form of the bright, chaotic energy of his new employee. Beneath her playful confidence, though, is a woman determined to prove herself — even if her brooding boss keeps pushing her away.

Seraphina is everything Rafe isn’t. She’s outgoing where he’s guarded, spontaneous where he’s rigid, and impossible to ignore.

The more they clash in the workplace, the more undeniable the tension becomes. When late nights at the office turn into stolen moments and guarded confessions, Rafe realizes Seraphina might be the one person capable of breaking through the walls he built.

My Wounded Boss is an instalove romance featuring a possessive alpha hero, sizzling chemistry, a fiery heroine, a broody hero, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
