He’s forbidden in every meaning of the word. But is that enough to keep him away?
It all started in Vegas.
Now, I know what you’re thinking…
What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in the city of sin. Normally, I’d be inclined to agree.
Until Lincoln Moore walks into my life.
On paper, we mix as well as oil and water.
He’s confident. Commanding. Successful. Master of his universe.
I’m a hot mess, barely holding on as I struggle to balance my job, finally finishing college, and keeping my mother sober.
But when the lights go out, nothing else matters.
Until I learn the truth of who Lincoln Moore actually is.
Sure, I probably should have put the pieces together sooner, but our time together hasn’t exactly been filled with riveting philosophical discussions about the meaning of life, if you know what I mean.
That still doesn’t diminish the fact he could lose everything by being with me.
But is that enough to keep us apart? Or is what we have worth the risk?
There’s only one way to find out.
Let the games begin…

“A forbidden romance with a fun heroine and gorgeous writing!” – Sarina Bowen
Four years ago, Haley had a giant crush on her sister’s boyfriend. But when he moved away, she put Beck out of her mind.
It’s a shock to find that he’s back—and roasting the best coffee in Vermont for the Busy Bean’s local competitor.
Haley is going to need to get her hands on those beans…as well as a few more of the kisses they accidentally share outside the coffee shop. Beck still makes her heart race faster than a triple shot of espresso.
Haley’s sister burned Beck’s life to the ground, so she’s the last woman he should bring into his bed. Nobody can know. But their business relationship is giving way to something more than a fine grind. Neither of them can help ourselves. And what’s worse, he may be falling for her…
Content note: this fun and sexy romance contains a secondary character with mental health challenges. While that story is merely a small part of the book, we mention it out of an abundance of caution.

A princess is missing and a peace treaty is on the verge of collapse in this new Veronica Speedwell adventure from the New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-nominated author Deanna Raybourn.
January 1889. As the newest member of the Curiosity Club–an elite society of brilliant, intrepid women–Veronica Speedwell is excited to put her many skills to good use. As she assembles a memorial exhibition for pioneering mountain climber Alice Baker-Greene, Veronica discovers evidence that the recent death was not a tragic climbing accident but murder. Veronica and her natural historian beau, Stoker, tell the patron of the exhibit, Princess Gisela of Alpenwald, of their findings. With Europe on the verge of war, Gisela’s chancellor, Count von Rechstein, does not want to make waves–and before Veronica and Stoker can figure out their next move, the princess disappears.
Having noted Veronica’s resemblance to the princess, von Rechstein begs her to pose as Gisela for the sake of the peace treaty that brought the princess to England. Veronica reluctantly agrees to the scheme. She and Stoker must work together to keep the treaty intact while navigating unwelcome advances, assassination attempts, and Veronica’s own family–the royalty who has never claimed her.

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Tempest and Make Me Love You brings her “mastery of historical romance” (Entertainment Weekly) to 1880s Montana where passions and gold fever run high as an American heiress turns to a rugged mountain man to help her locate her father’s fortune.
After a social whirlwind in London, Violet Mitchell is summoned back to Philadelphia only to discover her family living on the edge of financial ruin while their father seeks new wealth in Montana’s gold fields. With the family’s home and social standing at risk, Violet makes a drastic decision.
Meanwhile, Montana rancher Morgan Callahan rode away from his family’s cattle farm to make his own fortune. Now as he finishes exploiting a mother lode of silver, a young woman claiming to be his late partner’s daughter turns up wanting to be taken to her father’s mine. Suspecting that the pretty schemer works for the mining outfit that is trying to steal his land, he has no qualms about snatching her and holding her at his camp where she can do no harm.
But he underestimated the new thorn in his side. Determined to claim what rightfully belongs to her family, Violet summons up the courage and grit to cope with the hazards and discomforts of an untamed land and the disturbingly masculine stranger who holds her fate in his hands. But an error of judgment brings down a hailstorm of danger that upends her plans and deepens her bond to a man who may turn out to be all she desires. With her signature “strong characters, humor, interesting plots—and, of course—romance” (The Cincinnati Enquirer), Johanna Lindsey crafts another irresistible and adventurous love story.
Marry Me by Sundown by Johanna Lindsey- $1.99 for a limited time.
SWEETHEART is one of my favorite books of 2021. It’s not only a wonderful romance about a woman falling for her sister’s ex, it’s also an sensitive exploration of the impact mental illness has on the sufferer and their family.
Currently about midway through Sweetheart which I’m enjoying. Thanks for posting the book, @Angela, and for the recommendation, @DDD.
