Release Boost: Lose to Win by Kate McBrien

 

 



Lose to Win by Kate McBrien is now live!





When music producer Phil Rothstein sold his father's song catalog without permission, he thought he was expanding their family business—now his father has dementia, and Phil will do anything to get those songs back.

Celebrity photographer turned photojournalist Claire Morgan returns to New York haunted by PTSD and desperate for work. She needs this job to honor a promise to a fallen friend. Her assignment? Photograph Phil Rothstein, the man she's wanted for five years but could never have.

Their reunion ignites into something neither expected, but Phil's enemy holds the key to everything—the catalog Phil desperately needs and the money Claire's fighting for. One photoshoot could give them both what they want, but Claire's unresolved trauma tests their newfound romance. Phil faces an impossible choice between protecting the woman he loves and recovering his father's legacy before memory fades forever.

Sometimes, to win the love that matters most, you have to lose everything first.

Lose to Win is a deeply emotional, slow burn second chance romance with emotionally complex characters, high stakes, and a heart-felt happily-ever-after. Perfect for readers who love protective heroes, fierce heroines healing from trauma, and stories where love means showing up—even when it’s hard.

Content note: This book contains references to sexual assault, PTSD, and dementia. These sensitive themes are handled with care and compassion, with the emotional journey of healing at the heart of the story. Reader discretion is advised.

Release Blitz: For Your Love by Kate McBrien

 



For Your Love by Kate McBrien is now live!



Her brothers call her a princess, but he tells her she's a queen. His queen.

She's the girl with three brothers. The scholarly one. The one with big dreams and a dark secret.
 
He's her brother's best friend. And the rich playboy who broke her heart.
 
Finn O'Connor taught Colleen Murphy what it felt like to be in love--and to have her heart broken and bruised.
 
When Finn appears at a family event a decade later, it all rushes back, and Colleen must fight to resist the pull to the wealthy bad boy she'd been reading about in the tabloids all those years.
 
Finn tells her he's changed--but can Colleen trust him not to break her heart again?
 
And will Finn unlock Colleen's secret? The one that's kept her from ever letting anyone too close, including him?
 
Although she resists, Colleen is starting to wonder if Finn alone sees her for who she really is.
 
And though her brothers called her princess, Finn keeps telling her she's a queen.
 
His queen.
