Winning her heart may be biggest prize of all...
Devlin by Barbara Freethy is available now!
As the second Blackthorne son, Devlin usually likes to stay out of the family drama, but with his family suddenly falling apart, he has one way to bring them back together. He wants to win the Southern Maine Sailing Invitational, like his father and uncle before him. He has built the fastest boat, he has planned for every contingency, except one…a beautiful blonde determined to beat him and avenge a family betrayal. Hannah Reid is tired of watching the Blackthornes win races on boats built by her dad, especially after the family patriarch fired her father. She has only one way to get revenge, win the race. Unfortunately, Devlin Blackthorne is standing in her way. She wants to hate him, but Devlin’s love of the sea and brave, adventurous spirit mirrors her own, and she begins to realize that this sexy, charming man is hurting, too. As they race to the finish, battling not only betrayal, but also strong winds and unexpected storms, Hannah and Devlin wonder if winning each other wouldn’t be the greatest win of all…

What the readers are saying about Devlin! 
"I loved this book! Barbara Freethy never fails to deliver a story filled with complex characters, great dialogue, beautiful scenery and wonderful plots. Freethy has got this series off to a flying start, and I can’t wait to read the rest. Another 5-star read devoured in one sitting ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" Book Lovers Anonymous
"This is a quick enjoyable read with sharp, likeable, passionate characters. Its a fun book and a great beginning to what promises to be an excellent series. Don't miss it!" Trude – Goodreads
"I binge read this book. Seriously, I didn’t even get out of my PJ’s until I was finished. I loved everything about this story. The setting, the family dynamics and of course Devlin Blackthorne himself. I was drawn into their world and I didn’t want it to end. Devlin hooked me and I’m anxious for the next book, I can’t wait to see what’s next for the Blackthorne’s. I highly recommend!" Tammy – Goodreads
"Passion, competition, family relationships, renewed friendships, and chemistry bring Devlin and Hannah together. A heartwarming book full of emotion and passion- another winner by Barbara Freethy and an engrossing start to the series.

This is Book #1 in the 7 Brides for 7 Blackthornes series with 7 different authors.  A sweet romance between two people who have been through tough times. Hannah was engaged but her fiancee went back to his ex. Delvin lost the one he loved and he hasn't let anyone close to him. They got to know each other better. 

I am really happy I decided to read this series.  I almost didn't, but I love the idea of all 7 brothers/cousins meeting "the one".  I can not wait to read the next book in this series about Jason by Julia London.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.

Title: Stealing Home (St. Michaels Duet #2)
Author: Harlow Cole
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
Release Date: August 1, 2019

Ashley
I’ve given up. On my childish dreams.
On getting out of this town. On love. On him.
On everything.
I’m barely treading water.
Brayden
I’m the man with it all.
The pinstriped jersey covering my back garners easy cash, flashy cars and fast women. My gilded name drapes over the city in neon. I have everything. Everything, except the thing I crave most. Ashley Foster.
There’s one addiction I never tried to beat.
They say you can never go home again. I’m out to prove them wrong. But what if returning requires facing all the things you destroyed? To what lengths would you go to earn forgiveness?
Would you beg? Would you borrow? Would you steal?
Stealing home is the riskiest move in baseball. But the reward... If it works? Winning her back is a chance I’m finally ready to take.
My pockets are filled with stars.
It’s time to follow them home.
This time, I don’t want to steal her firsts,
I want to lay claim on all her lasts.

Pre-Order Blitz: Regret at Roosevelt Ranch

Preorder Now!
Regret at Roosevelt Ranch by Elise Faber
Universal -- mybook.to/RaRR
Henry Miller was nobody. Not any longer. He used to be an up and coming chef in New York City, training under one of the most famous celebrity chefs in the world. But that had been five years before. When he’d been itching to leave the small-town life of Darlington, Utah behind and become rich and powerful and famous. He’d been on his way too—had the fancy apartment, the great job, the gorgeous fiancé. Isabella had been generous, sweet, and beautiful inside and out . . . or so he’d thought. Because the moment he’d taken leave from his job to come home and care for his father, the moment he’d slipped free of the outer edges of celebrity by returning to Utah to help his mother run the diner, Bella had dumped him. Without a word and definitely without any explanation, Bella had disappeared from his life faster than a Michelin star from a restaurant that had lost his shine. And he was fine with that. He’d moved on, rebuilt a life in Darlington and found, if not fulfillment, then at least peace in cooking at his father’s old diner. Until Isabella showed up in town with a new fiancé in tow. Until Bella wanted him to cook the food for her wedding at Roosevelt Ranch. Until . . . he found out why she had left. Suddenly, the peaceful but boring life Henry had built for himself was chaotic and frightening and it potentially, maybe . . . possibly might be punctuated with a happy ending.
About the Author: Aside from writing romance, Elise's passions are chocolate, Star Wars, and hockey (the order depending on the day and how well her team -- the Sharks! -- are playing). She and her husband also play as much hockey as they can squeeze into their schedules, so much so that their typical date night is spent on the ice. Elise is the mom to two exuberant boys and is thoroughly addicted to Dancing With the Stars. Connect with Elise!

Parents are always overreacting. "Stay away from strangers," they say. "Don't go near the woods," they warn. And it's all so pointless until there's a tragic accident.
And here, there was a tragic accident. One that haunts me to this day. It still leaves me with a broken heart, missing my brother. But this story? It's not about me. It's about him.
About T.C. Galinari

** Warning: Graphic violence and themes of sexual assault/abuse ** 


 It’s sad to have this series end.  I have loved every book. Not sure which one is my favorite.  I love how every book had me on the edge of my seat wondering what, who, when, where, and why.  This book was sad because of Tessa and her lose. She needed to see what was in front of her. I look forward for what else Jane Blythe will write and her other books.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
