New Release + Release Blitz + 4.5 Star Review: Wildest Dreams by Kristen Proby

Posted on 07/18/2024 by cafemamanc7

Wildest Dreams by Kristen Proby is now live!

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes an all-new Small Town, Single Dad, Brother’s Best Friend, Cowboy romance.

Ryan Wild thought he had everything he could ever want. A billionaire before thirty, he’s finally moved back home to Bitterroot Valley, built a beautiful house on his ranch, and has recently adopted a teenage boy that has brought nothing but joy into his life. The only thing that’s been missing is the feeling of Polly in his arms since their incredible night together months ago. Memories of her touch aren’t nearly enough to satisfy him, and Ryan will do anything he can to make her his.

Polly can’t forget the one night she spent with Ryan all of those months ago, but she understood that it was a one-time deal. Yes, she still thinks about the sexy billionaire cowboy and his strong arms wrapped around her, but she’s a busy woman, with a thriving clothing shop and a group of friends that keep her on her toes. When you add in a house that always needs repairs, Polly’s days and nights are completely full. But when Ryan starts coming around, tempting her with that killer smile, heated bedroom eyes, and generous gifts, how is she supposed to stay away from him?

Polly knows how important the bond between father and son is and feels guilty for taking some of Ryan’s attention away from Jake, especially when Ryan whisks her away to Paris for the romantic vacation of her dreams. And just when the three of them start to settle in together, where Polly, Jake and Ryan start to feel like a family, she starts getting warnings and prank phone calls. Someone wants to come between them and their growing relationship.

The love they share is beyond their wildest dreams, but when danger lurks, will they be torn apart forever?

Tracey’s Review

So, can I move to Bitterroot Valley, Montana? Because I’m ready, thanks to Kristen Proby, who continues to create a place and people that feel just like home. The Wild family and their circle are, as with Kristen’s previous series, the kind of folks that make you wish that you were part of it, and in WILDEST DREAMS, the third and latest book, I have found my current favorite.

I just love Ryan Wild. He’s smart, business savvy, straightforward, and, as his family are seeing, very much a family man. He knows what he wants, and isn’t afraid to go for it, whether it’s a business deal, becoming found family for his foster son, or pursuing Polly Allen, who is pretty amazing in her own right.

Polly, owner of Pocket Full of Polly (love it!), is a shrewd businesswoman, and one that lifts other women up at the same time. She’s known the Wilds for her whole life, and thinks of them as best friends and family, but Ryan, well he’s in a class by himself, ever since the night that he showed her a whole other side of himself.

Yes, these two are passionate about each other, but what I love the best in their relationship is that they really LIKE each other, they communicate with each other, and they support each other in all of the ways. They are truly relationship goals, and the way that they love their friends and family makes them even more of a power couple.

This series continues to get better with each book, which is saying something, because I’ve loved all of them. Next up is Abbi and Brady in ON THE WILD SIDE, which promises to be as amazing as all of the others, and I cannot wait. If you haven’t met the Wilds of Montana, now’s the time. One-click your way through these books, and I guarantee, you’ll want to move to Bitterroot Valley, too. Happy reading! ❤️

New Release + Release Blitz: Chasing Wild by Kristen Proby

Posted on 05/09/2024 by cafemamanc7

Chasing Wild by Kristen Proby is now live!

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes an all-new Small Town, Friends to Lovers, Law Enforcement romance.

Summer Quinn’s life changed five years ago when she walked in on her boyfriend and her best friend in bed together. She silently left, ghosting both of them, and never looked back. She came to Bitterroot Valley, looking for a fresh start, and that’s exactly what she got.

After purchasing the local floral shop from her eccentric aunt and finding herself again in the absolute delight she brought to the community, Summer feels welcome and safe in her new home.

But things have started to happen. At first, she could blow it off as bad luck, or kids starting trouble. But then the bad luck turns into serious, life-threatening incidents that can’t be ignored.

Bitterroot Valley is Chase Wild’s town. His family settled the area almost a hundred and fifty years ago, and as a police officer, Chase takes pride in keeping his community safe. Sure, he’s had his eye on the gorgeous florist since she moved to town, but he’s kept his relationship with her strictly professional.

Now, someone’s trying to scare Summer. She claims she doesn’t know why, but Chase is determined to get to the bottom of it and drive the danger out of his town. As time passes, and the more he gets to know Summer, the harder it is to keep his hands off of the beautiful woman. With their connection growing, he’s falling in love with her and will do anything to keep her safe.

As Chase learns the truth of who is threatening Summer, will he be able to protect her, and will their love withstand the challenges ahead?

Chasing Wild is a standalone, contemporary romance novel, and book two in the picturesque Wilds of Montana series.

Tracey’s Review

Do I love a good second chance romance? Yes, I do, which makes CHASING WILD, the second book in the Wilds of Montana series by Kristen Proby, just right for me.

While I appreciate the whole ‘getting to know you’ aspect of a new romance, I’m a sucker for those folks that just weren’t able to get things right the first time around. And while Chase’s and Summer’s relationship was more ‘friends with the hope of something more,’ seeing them come together and their love grow without any third act break-up is a welcome change from most of the books that I’ve read lately.

Strong friendships and family relationships, and the small town closeness that make Kristen’s stories so special are the threads that weave the characters and their journey together and make for such an enjoyable read. There are plenty of cameos from the Seattle branch of the Montgomery family, making this feel like a visit with old friends.

Chase’s and Summer’s chapter are a wonderful addition to the Wilder family series, and having seen more of Ryan and Polly, I can’t wait to jump into their book, WILDEST DREAMS. In the meantime, make your way to Bitterroot Valley and get to know the Wilds. You’ll be glad that you did. ❤️

Tracey’s Review

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. I have to say, seeing Dax Cove as a doting dad, well, that didn’t seem like it was in the cards for this hardworking and dedicated research doctor. But life has a way of turning us on our ear when we least expect it, doesn’t it?

I really enjoyed Dax’s and Eira’s story from the get go. Eira working her nanny magic (Mary Poppins, indeed) and encouraging a deeply devoted relationship between Dax and his little Guinevere before he realizes what’s happening (also, how can you NOT love a research doc that is also a fan of Arthurian legend?) , Dax falling for both Guenevire and Eira, the slow burn between Dax and Eira, the Cove family and all of their love and support and humor, made DR. SINGLE DAD another favorite from Louise.

This series has been easy to love, and while I’m happy that all of the Cove brothers got their happily ever afters, I’m sorry that we’ve run out of doctors to read about. But, I have no doubt that Louise has plenty more wonderful tales to tell, and I can’t wait to read them. In the meantime, I absolutely recommend this series, and have no doubt that readers will love them as much as I do. ❤️

New Release + Release Blitz: This Much is True by Adriana Locke

Posted on 03/18/2024 by cafemamanc7

When celebrity Laina Kelley bolted from her small hometown church on her wedding day, she ran to the first place that came to mind—to the home of the local farrier, a gorgeous playboy who just so happens to be her first love … and biggest frenemy.

This Much Is True by Adriana Locke is now live!

USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke delivers a new “sweet and spicy!” standalone romance about a runaway bride who finds herself in the arms, and horse barn, of her deliciously handsome frenemy—who just so happens to be her first love.

This isn’t your average romance. It begins with me in a wedding dress, just not at an altar …

I never expected to be a runaway bride. I also never thought I’d end up on my ex’s doorstep to flee from said wedding. Now that I’m here, it’s easy to find the key in an old boot by the door and let myself inside. It’s not breaking and entering if I have a key, right?

It’s safe to say that Luke Marshall didn’t expect to find me on his couch in my wedding dress, my veil over my face in tears. He has no choice but to listen to my panic-induced plea for salvation. It’s only a matter of time before the tabloids get wind of my disappearing act, and my life is over.

Luke takes pity on me and says I can stay… on one condition.

I can’t sing for my supper—I have to earn it. I have to work in the barn alongside him, up to my elbows in horse manure. Oh—and because there’s only one bed, I get the couch.

This works … in theory. However, when sparks start flying, and the small-town farrier asks me to stay, I’ll have to decide between my life as a pop star or a second chance with my first love.

New Release + Release Blitz: Live + 5 Star Review, Love, Spy by Lexi Blake

Posted on 03/05/2024 by cafemamanc7

Live, Love, Spy by Lexi Blake is now live!

Life can often be awkward when you’re a child genius. For Louisa Ward, that came in the form of meeting her one true love at the age of 12. TJ Taggart was perfect. But being a year younger and a full grade ahead of him in school always made things weird. Working in the CIA has turned her into a strong and capable woman. Until TJ walks into a room. Fifteen years later, she still gets butterflies every time she sees the gorgeous soldier, but she’s tired of waiting and ready to find love, even if it can’t be with him.

TJ Taggart always knew he wanted to be a soldier. But joining the Army would require a sacrifice. Since meeting Louisa, TJ knew she was the one for him, but they had different paths in life. Lou was meant to change the world at some prestigious research job or maybe teach at an Ivy League school. There would be a chance to sweep her off her feet when his time in this dangerous life was done, and their happily ever after could begin.

Before he can make it home on his latest leave, TJ is kidnapped by an unknown adversary. As he waits to die, all he can think of is the time he wasted and how badly he wants to be with Lou. He’s more than a little surprised when his sweet, quiet girl shows up leading a CIA special ops squad to bust him out. Back in Dallas, it’s time to claim the woman of his dreams. He has a plan to win her over, until the adversary who almost killed him returns to finish the job.

Tracey’s Review

When you find an author whose books make you laugh, cry, and feel like you’re among a group of people that you absolutely love, well, you’ve found your people, and you hold onto them with both hands. Author Lexi Blake is my people, and I absolutely adore her and her books, filled as they always are with wit, humor, sass, sarcasm, adrenaline-pumping suspense, family, and love. Always love.

LIVE, LOVE, SPY, the second book in Lexi’s Masters & Mercenaries: New Recruits series, is Louisa Ward’s and TJ Taggart’s story, and I don’t think that I could have loved it more. Lou finally gets to show that she is so much more than the brainy one, the sensible one, the one that you can depend on to sit behind the computer and get things done. To show TJ that she’s more than his friend Lou, that she is a strong woman, capable of so much more than he knew, the woman that has been there all along, waiting for him to wake the heck up. I mean, the Taggart girls are her besties, so what else would we expect?

Strong women and the men that love them are a given in Lexi’s books, and this new series is extra special, because we’re on to the next generation, the kids that we’ve watched grow up now coming into their own and taking on the world the way that their parents did before them (and still do!). They are the next wave, and are doing a bang-up job showing the spy world what they’re bringing to the table.

Ian ‘Big Tag’ Taggart continues to make me laugh out loud, and seeing him getting served by the younger set some of what he doled out their whole lives is hilarious. Many of the other OG M&M gang make their appearances, doing their best to support the kids, and still show that they’re the bad*sses they’ve always been, lending the air of nostalgia that I so enjoy in this series. LIVE, LOVE, SPY is an immediate favorite for me, and one that Lexi’s fans should not miss (Note: While I do believe that these books can be read as standalones, having read the prior books helps everything make more sense. 😊). I can’t wait to see what’s next for this crew, but in the meantime, make sure that this one is high atop your TBR, and happy reading! ❤️

New Release + Release Blitz + Giveaway + 4.5 Star Review: Claim Me Forever by A.L. Jackson

Posted on 02/20/2024 by cafemamanc7

Claim Me Forever by A.L. Jackson is now live!

A single dad sheriff doing his best to protect his town. A gorgeous stranger caught trespassing. A love never expected…

So, it turns out the town sheriff is a total cinnamon roll. A big, burly, grumpy, hot as sin, cinnamon roll. He found me hiding out on private property. Trespassing. I lied and told him I was only there because I was out of cash and had to sleep in my car.

I thought he’d give me a ticket and send me on my way.

Instead, he insisted that I stay at his guest house—right next door to him and his three kids.

I know better than to let them get close. I’ve been betrayed too many times to put my trust in anyone.

Too bad the air crackles every time he comes near, and I feel like I’m going to burn up every time I look at him.

All it takes is one reckless night to completely spiral into the bliss of the man and his big, capable hands. One dinner with his little family to completely fall.

Only I never told him why I really came to Time River. Now I have to choose to trust him with my secret before it’s too late for both of us…

Tracey’s Review

The Time River series has quickly become a must-read for me, due in equal part to the fact that I am a romantic suspense nut and that the books are beautifully written by author A.L. Jackson. I feel like this might be one of the most challenging genres for an author to write, both in keeping the reader invested without giving anything away too soon, as well as continuing to put out new plots that will keep readers coming back. Amy, however, has truly found her niche, because her books are always fresh, beautifully written, and immediately addictive.

I have been looking forward to Ezra’s HEA since we met him in LOVE ME TODAY, the very first book of the series, and have been following Amy’s trail of bread crumbs to get here. CLAIM ME FOREVER is just the book I was hoping for, and a perfect addition to the Time River series. The love story between and Ezra and Savannah is intensely and unequivocally right, both of them the one that each needs but neither was expecting, and the way that they care for each other, and become everything to each other, is just beautiful. I had my suspicions about the way things were going to play out, but Amy still had plenty of surprises along the way, and, as usual, has given her readers and fans a book that is original, beautiful, and, in the end, redemptive.

I’ll be thinking of this book for a long time to come, the characters and their stories having become, like all of the additions to Amy’s worlds, instant favorites. CLAIM ME FOREVER is an easy 4.5 stars, and one that you shouldn’t miss. Add it to your TBR and enjoy. ❤️

New Release + Release Blitz: Ashes of You by Catherine Cowles

Posted on 02/08/2024 by cafemamanc7

❤️ ASHES OF YOU IS LIVE ❤️

Get ready to fall for Lawson and Hallie in their single dad, age gap, nanny, small town romance, from USA Today Bestselling Author, Catherine Cowles!

Five years ago, I nearly lost everything. But there was a glimmer of hope on that darkest night. There was him—a stranger I could never forget.

Now, I’m finally getting the fresh start I’ve longed for. But when I show up to interview for a nanny position in the small mountain town, the single dad has startlingly familiar blue eyes.

Eyes that have haunted my dreams for the past five years.

Lawson Hartley is everything I know I can’t have. Older, handsome, and my boss. Not to mention the shadows in his eyes that tell me he has demons, too.

Still, he seems to understand me better than anyone I’ve ever met. So gentle and careful of my scars, yet somehow making me believe I’m stronger than I ever thought possible.

And when his lips touch mine, I’m lost.

We find what we’ve been missing in each other. But the terrors of my past aren’t done with me yet, and this time, Lawson might not be able to save me…

Tracey’s Review

Y’all, this book. THIS BOOK. It’s no secret that I absolutely love author Catherine Cowles and her books. After the way she thrilled my romance-loving heart with Roan’s and Aspen’s story in SHADOWS OF YOU, I wasn’t sure how Lawson Hartley’s tale was going to unfold, or whether it would speak to me in the same way (spoiler: it SO does). You guys, this book is everything.

Age-gap is not always my favorite, but I could not have loved Lawson and Hallie together more. They are perfect for each other, and seeing the eldest Hartley happy at last warms me to my very heart. And, as always, the family support, the friendships and love, the sense of community, all make this trip to Cedar Ridge feel like coming home.

Whether you’re a longtime fan of Catherine’s or new to her books, do NOT miss this one. If you haven’t met the Hartleys yet, you can binge read the whole series, and you absolutely should. But save some space in your heart for Law and Hallie, because they are beautiful magic. ❤️

New Release + Release Blitz: Sable Peak by Devney Perry

Posted on 12/07/2023 by cafemamanc7

Sable Peak by Devney Perry is now live!

An unrequited love, small town romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author, Devney Perry.

Vera Gallagher is chasing constant. For four years, her life was anything but normal. And the years before that she refuses to even remember. Dwelling on the past only hurts. Life is fragile, a lesson her mother taught her well. She’s determined not to waste a moment of her newfound freedom.

Maybe some would consider her crush on Mateo Eden wasted time. Maybe some would call her a fool for loving a man who hasn’t once dropped a crumb of interest her way. Still, to Vera, it’s Mateo or nothing.

He’s handsome. Charming. Witty. And he loves his family the way Vera loves—with her whole heart.

Maybe he’ll never notice her. Maybe she’s too damaged, too broken, to find that normal life she craves. Maybe her secrets will always keep them apart. But Vera will love him anyway. Whether Mateo realizes it or not.

New Release + Release Blitz: The Stand-In by Kristen Proby

Posted on 11/14/2023 by cafemamanc7

The Stand-In by Kristen Proby is now live!

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes THE STAND-IN, the newest novel in her beloved Single in Seattle series, featuring Drew Montgomery!

I don’t like my new boss. Not at all.

London Ambrose is a spoiled billionaire’s daughter. And now she’s the new co-owner of the Seattlefootball team,but that doesn’t mean that she knows diddly squat about football.

There’s nothing I hate more than having someone micromanaging me, shadowing my every move, and giving me their two cents on Every. Little. Thing. as I coach MY defensive line.

I don’t care about new team jerseys and branding or answering her million and one questions about how I do my job. But, I can’t help but come to her defense when an old flame shows up and starts harassing her. I’m a Montgomery. We don’t let anyone mess with women.

Now, I’m suddenly in a fake relationship, pretending to date the gorgeous billionaire and learning so many surprising things about this captivating woman that I just can’t seem to stay away from her.

When the lines between our fake relationship and real relationship blur, and my initial distaste for her turns into desire, I find myself coaching the most important game of my life – do I let my guard down or do I let London Ambrose walk away forever?

Tracey’s Review

I loved the parents, and I’m loving the kids! Kristen Proby’s Single In Seattle series is a much-loved continuation of the With Me In Seattle series, and I remember why these characters and their stories are some of my most favorite ever with each subsequent book. Every visit is like reconnecting with much-loved family members or close friends, and I am so happy that Kristen decided to keep the family love going strong.

I knew right away that I was going to love Drew, because I have long adored his father and mother, and none of the Montgomery clan raised a kid that isn’t awesome. Drew is down to earth, honest, and loving, and just what London and Caleb need to show them the true meaning of family, acceptance, and unconditional love.

One of my favorite things about Kristen is that she writes strong women, women who are secure in who they are and who are living their lives on their terms. London is all of these things, demonstrating that it is possible to be a savvy businesswoman and a mother, that giving equal time to her family in no way keeps her from kicking but in the business world, and that her softness with Drew doesn’t mean that she cannot hold her own in the workplace. She and Drew are a true power couple in every way, and it’s really nice to see.

It never feels like enough time with these characters, so I cannot wait for the next visit to Seattle in THE SOULMATE, Liam’s and Bianca’s book. And can I just say that the glimpse that we get of her upcoming series, the Wilds of Montana, has me doing the happy dance.? There is so much goodness coming our way, and I am so excited. If by some chance you have not started this series, now is the time. Jump in, fall in love (because I know that you will!), and enjoy. ❤️
