Duty and Desire, by K.C. Wells

An island escape.
A stranger with secrets.
A love that could change everything.

Burned out and creatively blocked, I flee to a friend’s bungalow on the sun-drenched shores of Bora-Bora. I’m chasing peace, inspiration…

What I don’t expect is him.

Nick is quiet, intense, devastatingly handsome—and completely unreadable. There’s something about him, something just beneath the surface. We collide like a storm and fall fast into something wild and breathless. Days blur into nights filled with laughter, longing, and kisses that taste like forever.

But paradise is never what it seems.

Because Nick isn’t just any man hiding out in paradise. He’s trying to outrun his destiny, and that world is about to drag him back.

When he disappears without warning, I’m left with a heart in pieces.

When I learn the truth, I’m left with a choice: walk away, or fight for a love Nick’s world says I can’t have.

Nick was never supposed to fall in love.
I was never supposed to find out who he really is.
But fate doesn’t follow rules—and neither does love.

The Great Maple Mistake, by Beck Grey

A small-town photographer who’s given up on love meets a smoking hot firefighter with a smile to melt hearts. Try as they might, some flames are impossible to resist.

Alex:
Maplewood is as wonderful and cliché as you’d imagine. Sure, the town gossips share everyone’s business, but neighbors look out for each other. Nowhere else would be as accepting of me as this queer-friendly small town I grew up in. The only problem? A lack of eligible bachelors. So when a gorgeous new guy moves to town, the Maplewood grapevine is in full swing, and this time, I’m paying attention. Though maybe not close enough, because Cody and I literally run into each other. I hit him with my body, he hits me with his boy-next-door smile, and poof, my heart’s gone. Too bad sexy, sweet guys like him aren’t really interested in guys like me. Once he gets to know me, he’ll change his mind.

Cody:
You’d think that moving to a small town named Maplewood means I’m prepared for maple-flavored everything. You’d be wrong. And the stuff is everywhere, so how do I tell my new neighbors that the taste makes me gag? That problem is solved when a misunderstanding has them believing I’m allergic. Sure, it saves me from eating any more maple. It also feels like I’m lying. I try to explain, but there’s no stopping the Maplewood gossip mill. Especially when the adorable photographer I almost trample fans that flame. But I can’t even be mad about it. Alex has this sweetness to him that pulls me in like gravity. And little by little, he’s letting me get close. Eventually, I’ll convince him to trust me, to give us a real chance. When he does, will that mean I’ll owe ‘us’ to that annoying maple mistake?

The Great Maple Mistake is a low-angst, small-town contemporary LGBTQ romance about a local cutie looking for love, a sexy firefighter with a maple aversion, baking show obsessions, fluffy kittens, rumor mills, and a connection that’s more than skin deep.

With the highest percentage of LGBTQIA+ residents in Vermont, Maplewood is a town where everyone belongs. And with festivals year-round, there’s always something fun happening! This multi-author, low-angst queer series features ten standalone romances—each set against the backdrop of a different festival. Come for the celebrations, stay for the happily-ever-afters!

Breathe, by Reese Knightley

Breathe with Intention, Love without hesitation

Azrael –
He knows what he wants.
The one thing he’s never questioned was the fact that he loves Real.
But, Real thinks it’s hero worship on his part, but he is so very wrong.
Azreal can’t breathe when Real’s next to him and he can’t breathe when they are apart…for two very different reasons. It’s love without a shadow of doubt, and somehow Azrael needs to find a way to get Real to give them a chance.
But as time goes by, Real isn’t budging and Azrael is losing hope.

Real –
He saved Azrael from the streets of San Bernadino. He gave the young assassin a sounding board to vent.
Real helped mold Azrael into the young assassin he is today.
So now, Azrael looks up to him.
And there’s no way in hell Real would take advantage of that.
The only thing he can do is make sure Azrael is safe.
If he can watch Azrael from afar, then maybe just maybe he can breathe.

*Breathe is loosely connected to the Erebus Assassins series.

Love Notes, by Lisa Henry

Two hearts, one cabin: Can a quiet woodworker and a struggling author carve out a love story together?

Ryan Devlin loves his life in Caldwell Crossing. His career as a woodworker is fulfilling, and his close-knit group of friends are like brothers to him. Ryan is quiet and introverted and not interested in making changes to his life and his routines—not when he still struggles with memories of childhood bullying and feelings of inadequacy. But when his sister needs to relocate a short-stay guest because of a plumbing emergency at her rental house and asks to use Ryan’s cabin, how can he say no?

Adam Nelson comes to Caldwell Crossing to finish writing the latest book in his cozy murder mystery series—after the last one was trashed in a viral review. He needs peace and quiet and to be left undisturbed. So why can’t he stay away from the handsome woodworker whose workshop is next door to the gorgeous lakeside cabin he’s staying in?

As Ryan and Adam connect and their friendship shifts into something more, can they decide whether to trust their growing feelings and put their faith into the fate that brought them together?

Love Notes contains an introverted, dyslexic woodworker, a writer pretending to his agent that everything is under control, found family, best friends, and a cat with no name.

Pucked Up, by E.M. Lindsey

Sometimes what happens anonymously in a dingy, pay by the hour motel room shows up a month later to reveal himself as your new coach…
I have rules. Very important rules. No real names, no strings, no seeing each other again. It’s always worked out well for me, and it’s the only thing that keeps me focused as I try to climb my way into professional hockey after nearly torching my career.

I should have been king of the ice in the paraprofessional league, but instead, I let my anger and bitterness get to me. Now I’m forced to claw my way back into relevance, starting with a community team.

That would be fine if the one amazing, anonymous night I had with a total stranger didn’t end up being the Wolves’ new coach. And even that might have been tolerable if Hugo wasn’t on my father’s payroll.

But he is.

And to make matters worse, I still want him. My bad attitude and attempt to drive him away doesn’t faze him at all, and the more I push, the more he pulls me back into the last place I want to be: his orbit.

All I want is to join the PPHL and prove to myself that I’m a worthy player on my own merit.

Lust wasn’t on the table. And neither was love.

But the closer I get to Hugo, the more I realize that I’m not sure I want to do this without him…and the more I realize I’m not sure if I can.

Pucked Up is the second book in the Punk and Puck series which is best enjoyed in order. It’s an enemies with benefits, coach/player, slow burn into love romance. It features a para hockey player with a continent sized chip on his shoulder, a widower coach who never expected to fall for anyone after the loss of his husband, a bossy dynamic, a lot of praise, hockey bro banter, the merits of jumping on the bed when you’re sad, found family, and a steamy, wild happily ever after.
