Not Fooling Anyone, an all-new fake relationship college romance from Allie Winters, is available now in Kindle Unlimited!  The deal is simple—pretend to be Ethan’s girlfriend for a psych study and we each get a nice payday. Despite him being a dumb jock who willingly gets punched for fun at my dad’s boxing gym, I can handle it. I’ve mastered the art of keeping others at a distance. Especially after… Well, never mind that. Except, I didn’t count on him not understanding the definition of boundaries. Suddenly, we’re having to fake being in love all over campus to keep up the ruse. And when he tries to slip under the barriers I’ve worked so hard to create? Yeah, that’s not happening. Even if it turns out he’s surprisingly understanding… and funny… and charming… and smarter than I ever would have given him credit for. Not to mention that muscled body from all that boxing… No, that’s irrelevant. I may have misjudged him, but that doesn’t mean I’m interested. He has no

Smart Mouth, an all-new opposites attract romantic comedy from Emma Lee Jayne, is LIVE in Kindle Unlimited!  The rockstar There are lots of assumptions people make about rockstars. Shallow. Player. Addict. The truth? I’m none of those.  The even bigger truth…the only opinion I care about is her’s and she hates me. Her as in Gwen Matthews, my twin brother’s best friend, the unrequited love of my life. She thinks I’m a liar and a jerk which is why I pretend to be my brother when she needs help one night.  Except Gwen is a genius. Literally. So it doesn’t take her long to figure out it’s me and not my brother, but maybe, just maybe, she’s willing to give me a second chance.

She centers me in a way that no rhythm or line of lyric ever could.  The scientist I have three priorities in life at the moment: finish my research, de

Ten Trends to Seduce Your Bestfriend, an all-new quirky and witty laugh out loud romance from New York Times bestselling author Penny Reid, is now live! Winnifred Gobaldi and Byron Visser are not best friends. Yes, they’ve known each other for years, but they’re not even friendly. Winnie considers them more like casual, distant acquaintances who find each other barely tolerable, especially when he's being condescending (which is all the time). The truth is, they have nothing in common. She’s a public school science teacher with stars in her eyes, and he’s a pretentious, joyless double PhD turned world-famous bestselling fiction author. She loves sharing her passion for promulgating women in STEM careers and building community via social media, and he eschews all socialization, virtual or otherwise. She’s looking for a side hustle to help pay down a mountain of student debt, and his financial portfolio is the stuff of fiduciary wet dreams. So why are they faking a #

Book Smart, an all new friends-to-lovers sweet romance by debut author Amanda Pennington, is available now in Kindle Unlimited! Melanie Hirsch is tired of watching life pass her by… I’ve spent the last few years watching my dreams of a writing career and true love fade away, settling for a dead-end job and denying my feelings for my best friend – until I find a list of dating advice for single women to “find a husband” in the 1950s. I decide to experiment: try out the 1950s advice on my 21st-century dating pool and write about the results. If love is timeless, some of the dating advice still holds value. Maybe my experiment will launch my writing career. Maybe I’ll get over my best friend and meet someone new. Either way, I’m done watching from the sidelines. Cameron Whitacre can’t wait forever… I’ve spent the last few years in love with my best friend, hoping she’ll notice my friendly overtures have more than friendly intentions – but before I realize what’s h

Parks and Provocation, an all new enemies-to-lovers small town romance from Juliette Cross, is available now in Kindle Unlimited! Lola Landry stares through the window of her locked car with the keys in the ignition and the radio blaring Beck’s “Loser.” While standing there and sweltering in the soupy Tennessee humidity, she wonders how her orderly life had crashed and burned so badly. Then her high school nemesis saunters up in all of his tall, strapping, fireman-to-the-rescue glory, slapping her with the humiliating proof that it can always get worse. When the uber-confident Jedediah Lawson requests a date in return for popping her lock, a lightbulb goes off. Revenge is sweet. He would make the perfect victim—guest, that is—for her next podcast episode on Kiss and Tell.

Not even a low score on the

VIKING by Carmen Jenner     Release Date: April 16th     Genre/Tropes: Dark Romance/Age Gap/MC Romance      AVAILABLE NOW!!!     Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3tku0tG   ***5 Stars*** This baby was dark, disturbing, bloody and brutal in more ways than one, but that all faded into the background when Viking and Arie were together. They brought humor, heart and heat to the story and I was quite saddened when there were no more words to read. Obviously I adored Viking and Arie. Viking is morally gray, but still has morals that are deeply embedded in his own code of honor. Arie is a work in progress, but one that has a spine of steel and clever mind. Their journey to the HEA was a lot of fun as they learned about each other, and themselves, as they collided in a very not so meet cute way and found themselves bound to each other in ways they never could have imagined.  This is my first read by the author and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. The writing was engaging, pace was good and the fir
