London, 1881
Once the flames are ignited . . .

Miranda Ellis is a woman tormented. Plagued since birth by a strange and powerful gift, she has spent her entire life struggling to control her exceptional abilities. Yet one innocent but irreversible mistake has left her family’s fortune decimated and forced her to wed London’s most nefarious nobleman.

They will burn for eternity . . .
Lord Benjamin Archer is no ordinary man. Doomed to hide his disfigured face behind masks, Archer knows it’s selfish to take Miranda as his bride. Yet he can’t help being drawn to the flame-haired beauty whose touch sparks a passion he hasn’t felt in a lifetime. When Archer is accused of a series of gruesome murders, he gives in to the beastly nature he has fought so hard to hide from the world. But the curse that haunts him cannot be denied. Now, to save his soul, Miranda will enter a world of dark magic and darker intrigue. For only she can see the man hiding behind the mask.

Firelight (Darkest London Book 1) by Kristen Callihan- Priced at $1.99 for a limited time. (I adore this series.)

Originally Published by Harlequin Kimani Romance – September 2010

Entertainment columnist Paige Turner is known for getting under the skin of the people whose books she reviews on her popular blog. When her criticism of NFL standout Torrian Smallwood’s cookbook/memoir goes viral, it sparks an online war between the city’s most beloved blogger and one of football’s hottest stars.

Torrian couldn’t care less what some book blogger thinks about his upcoming memoir. His main focus is on making a success of the new restaurant he’s opening for his sister. That is, until he meets the gorgeous Paige Turner face-to-face. When a local TV station invites them to bring their online battle into the kitchen in a reality TV cook-off, Torrian comes up with a new goal: making Paige his.

Will either of them be able to stand the heat, or will they succumb to the white-hot attraction that neither can deny?

Reading order:
Book 1: Huddle With Me Tonight
Book 2: I’ll Catch You
Book 3: Field of Pleasure
Book 4: Pleasure Rush

Huddle With Me Tonight (New York Sabers Book 1) by Farrah Rochon– Priced at $1.99 for a limited time. The rest of the series is priced at $3.99 each and available in KU.

A goalie has to trust his instincts, even when taking a shot to the heart…

Mike Beacon is a champion at defending the net, but off the ice, he’s not so lucky. A widower and a single father, he’s never forgotten Lauren Williams, the ex who gave him the best year of his life. When Lauren reappears in the Bruisers office during the playoffs, Beacon sees his chance to make things right.

Lauren hates that she’s forced to travel with the team she used to work for and the man who broke her heart. There’s still undeniable sexual tension running between her and Mike, but she won’t go down that road again. She’s focused on her plans for the future—she doesn’t need a man to make her dreams of motherhood come true.

Lauren plays her best defensive game, but she’s no match for the dark-eyed goalie. When the field of play moves to Florida, things heat up on the beach.

One of Mike’s biggest fans doesn’t approve—his teenage daughter. But a true competitor knows not to waste the perfect shot at love.

Pipe Dreams (A Brooklyn Bruisers Novel Book 3) by Sarina Bowen– Priced at $1.99 for a limited time.

    Of all of Sarina Bowen’s books, PIPE DREAMS is my least favorite. The hero is a self-entitled douche who cheated on his first wife with the heroine (extenuating circumstances, but still…) and then went back to his wife. I never felt the hero understood the depth of his betrayal to either woman and I felt the heroine deserved better.

      DiscoDollyDeb- I read Pipe Dreams but it didn’t really stick out in my memory. I had to read the description to remember what it was about. I looked at my GR and I gave it 3.5 stars but I see where you are coming from with Lauren deserving better.
