New Release + 5 Star Review: Hex & Hearth Anthology by Various Authors

Posted on by
Reply

Happy Release Day to the lovely and talented authors of the HEX & HEARTH paranormal romance anthology. I read and loved every story in this collection, from the sweet (Carole Wolfe) to the uber-steamy (Taryn Quinn). There is something for every PNR fan in this collection, and it’s coming at just the right time for those of us not so patiently awaiting spooky season. Grab it, read it love it!

From sweet to steamy, Hex & Hearth is a multi-author paranormal romance anthology featuring M/F and M/M stories across a range of heat levels, with each standing alone and delivering a guaranteed HEA.

Driftwood Pointe has been weaving its magic for centuries—and love remains its greatest enchantment.

Along the Massachusetts coast, tucked between sea and stone, lies a town where the impossible feels ordinary and whispers are carried on the tide. At its heart stands the Hex & Hearth, where the fire is warm and fate often pulls up a chair.

For three hundred fifty years, Rowan has poured the drink you need, not the one you ordered, and Elara has listened, because she already knows your secrets—and keeps them safe.

Within these winding streets and salt-kissed shores, love takes many forms. Witches and shifters, ghosts and ancient powers, first loves and second chances all collide in ten interconnected stories where destiny refuses to be ignored and happily-ever-afters are hard-won.

Because in Driftwood Pointe, love is the one force old enough—and stubborn enough—to break what time couldn’t.

Tracey’s Review

I love spooky season reads, paranormal romance, and interconnected stories, so color me happy as can be with the release of the HEX & HEARTH anthology. This collection of sweet, steamy, and atmospheric stories by a group of super awesome romance authors ticks all of my boxes and then some.

There is something for every PNR fan in this anthology from fated mates to found family to answered dreams, all set in the delightful and magical town of Driftwood Pointe, Massachusetts. I really love the ‘Spice-O-Meter,’ from one witch’s hat (sweet) to four (super steamy – Taryn Quinn, I’m looking at you!), so you know just how much steam to expect in each story.

Whether you’re a diehard fan of the magically spooky, or looking to dip your toe in, HEX & HEARTH is the book, and now is the time. Dive in and enjoy!

Brother’s best friend, enemies-to-lovers, second-chance romance… this collection has it all!

Love Stories: A Novella Collection by Samantha Young is now live!

 

A collection of contemporary romance novellas from New York Times Bestselling Author Samantha Young.

This volume includes novellas previously only available exclusively to newsletter subscribers. They have now been collated into this romantic collection of modern love stories.

Includes:
The Forbidden Christmas Gift:
It’s Christmas at Shaw’s Department store in Edinburgh! Reid Shaw should feel nothing but gratified by his success. But he’s not satisfied because the sexy Scot wants forbidden fruit for Christmas: Evan Munro. Reid’s Evan’s boss. He’s thirteen years older than her.
Oh … and she’s his best friend’s little sister.

New Year’s Eve:
After Ryan drunkenly kisses the object of her crush, Joe–her sister’s father-in-law– at his son’s birthday party, all she wants to do is avoid Joe for the rest of eternity. But when they find themselves stranded alone together on New Year’s Eve, Ryan discovers Joe most definitely doesn’t want to avoid Ryan…

Loving Valentine:
Micah Green has loved Valentine Fairchild for over ten years; ever since they were kids brought together by Micah’s difficult family life. Too many outside factors have gotten in their way, pushing them further apart over the years. But Micah, no matter how hard he tries, can’t forget her. When he finds a way to see her again, he realizes he’s wasted too much time loving Valentine from afar. Now he just has to convince her to let go of their past so they can move on with their future. Together.

Ember in the Heart:
Loosely Inspired by Pride & Prejudice.
When Ember Bonet overhears her sister’s fiancé’s best friend uttering rude remarks about the Bonet sisters at the engagement party, she instantly dismisses him as a pretentious man-child. Then said man-child, Foster Darwin, moves into the house next door along with his five-year-old daughter, making him hard to ignore.
Foster can’t believe his best friend, Colt, omitted to tell him the spinsterish Bonet sisters live in the house next door to his new home. Problem is, Ember Bonet is anything but spinsterish. From the moment they met, Foster has fought an overwhelming attraction to her. An attraction he has no time for. Not only is he determined to prioritize his daughter Georgie, he can’t fail his own father again. And Edward Darwin has made it clear that Foster must settle down with the right woman. Unfortunately, his family’s idea of ‘right’ isn’t the sexy massage therapist next door who’s eleven years his senior.
Determined to keep her distance from Foster, Ember fails when it becomes clear he and Georgie need support in their new life together. But proximity to one another is too great a temptation, and physical chemistry soon turns into so much more. If only Ember could get over their age difference and Foster his family pride…

Surprise Release: Merry Ever After Anthology Including Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward, Marie Force, Kennedy Ryan, Lucy Score, & Tijan

It’s the season for gift giving!

Five FREE standalone holiday short stories!

 

 

Hot Item by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

Getting into a fight with a sexy stranger over the last hot toy on the shelf was not the way I intended to spend Christmas Eve. And I certainly didn’t plan on spending hours more trying to win a contest to decide who would get to buy it. But when our time is up, would the toy be the only hot item I wanted to take home?

 

One Night Only by Lucy Score

After a Christmas Eve concert mishap, divorced Brooke finds herself snowed in with the silver fox retiring rocker she’s been trying to interview. Will it take a Christmas miracle to get him to open up to her or does the tattooed bad boy of punk rock have other ideas on how to pass the time?

 

A Kellan Holiday by Tijan

Humans are so simple with their holiday traditions.

They are ignorant of the powerful and majestic creatures among them, like me.

I am the most powerful demon above the surface.

Nothing can stop me…except, well, some stupid prophecy.

 

Holiday Swing by Kennedy Ryan

For our five-year wedding anniversary, my husband decides he wants another woman. 

The traditional gift is wood, but okay. 

After trying everything with little improvement, our marriage counselor suggests we experiment to reignite our sex life. A swing party is my husband’s adventure of choice. 

Once inside, I can’t go through with it. Seeing him walk off with someone else, I realize we want very different things. Our marriage is over, and I have no intention of having a random hook up with a stranger. 

But then away from the noise and revelry, I find him. 

It’s one illicit encounter. A night with no names and no inhibitions. 

I don’t hold back, knowing I’ll never see him again.

And I don’t…until my parents’ Christmas party…

 

Nochebuena by Marie Force

Nochebuena is the Cuban community’s Christmas Eve celebration, and in this short story, the cast of Marie Force’s Miami Nights Series comes together to mark the holiday after a year of change that’s touched nearly every member of the family. Catch up with the characters from How Much I Feel, How Much I Care and How Much I Love and get a sneak peek at the couple that will headline book 4, How Much I Want. If you haven’t read the books yet, you’ll still enjoy this short story set in the Miami Nights world!

Excerpt

“If you two will excuse me, I have to use the ladies’ room,” I say, and point at my empty glass. “Can you ask for another martini for the road?”

“High altitude,” Jeannette warns me. “Two more and you’ll be showing your favorite pair of panties to the entire restaurant—and this time you won’t be able to claim it was an accident.”

She cackles and I think she’s the drunk one of the two of us.

“Bitch,” I growl and march to the bathroom thinking about how I’m going to get back at her.

I swear she’s so loud, a few tables around us hear her and give me the look. Maybe I should tell her wife some embarrassing stories from when we were young. There’re plenty of those. That might keep them around for a couple of hours—at least one more hour. It’s too early to go back to the hotel.

On my way to the restroom, I try to come up with the best one. Then pull out my phone to see if I have any old pictures. I don’t pay much attention when I enter the restroom, put away my phone, and enter the stall. After I’m done and while I’m washing my hands, I know exactly how Jeannette is going to pay for what she just did.

“Well, this is either a treat or the worst invasion of my privacy.”

I jump and shriek. My heart beats fast but I spin around toward the unexpected male voice. I’m not sure where I should concentrate my attention, his handsome face or the thick and meaty treat he’s holding in his hand.

Yummy, talk about girth and length.

“Wait, what are you doing in the ladies’ room?”

He laughs while putting away his well-endowed package. “I didn’t know they had urinals in the ladies’ room.”

“In the what?” I shriek and look around the bathroom.

And fuck if this isn’t worse than the airport. It’s Jeannette’s fault. She distracted me.

“Oh well,” I say, smiling. “I leave you with your …”

“You should show me something to make up for what just happened,” he says, with a hinting tone. “You know a tit for tat.”

“What?” I cover my boobs. “No.”

“Come on, at least show me those lacy panties everyone saw at the airport.”

“How do you know about my panties?”

“You and your sister don’t know the definition of inside voice,” he says and my cheeks heat up. Well, I gave a show to the entire restaurant. “At least, I think she’s your sister. You two could be twins, you know.”

“We are twins,” I clarify. “And no, I won’t be showing you anything.”

He winks at me. “You liked what you saw, we could have a party with him as long as you’re willing to share.”
