Summer love cuts to the bone.
I didn’t choose to attend Summer’s Royal Academy, an elite school full of vicious Fae. I never wished for an arranged marriage to a nasty shadow prince.
I especially never wanted to meet Aidan Summers. He was the most beautiful man I’d ever laid eyes on—the one who broke my heart beyond repair. Our relationship was forbidden, and yet I couldn’t resist his fire.
A century later, I have it all—money, fame, power—but none of it matters. I’m still his. And when I receive an invitation to sing at his wedding, a wicked part of me rises to the occasion.
Has he really forgotten about me? Or does he want to destroy what’s left of my soul?

It’s part of an interconnected series with a story arc spanning across multiple books, but each book will feature a different romance and a new couple. It’s a great entry point into the series and can be read first.
This is an enemies-to-lovers, forbidden second chance romance that takes place in two different timelines. Join Elizabeth Snow down memory lane as she awakens the ghosts of a past long gone. Steamy. 18+

I vowed I’d never get involved with a client again. That was a lesson I thought I only had to learn once. When I’m assigned Stefan Däuchmen aka Doucheman, I realize I have a huge problem.
My number one rule is “never date someone from work” … or “a douche.” One would think because he’s an egotistical manwhore jerk, I would be safe from his charm. But my new, very attractive client has me questioning if rules were made to be broken.
I have to remind myself constantly it doesn’t matter how good-looking he is. With his panty-melting smile, rich chocolate eyes, and washboard abs, or the heart of gold he hides under his douchey exterior. He’s my client and I’m not going there—again. But the more time I spend with him, the harder I fall.
I pucking hate to love him, but I can’t help it … I’m so pucking screwed.



DL Gallie writes spicy romance with elements of comedy and suspense. She currently lives in Central Queensland, Australia, her husband and two kids but has lived in many different places around the world and within Australia. She and her husband have been together since she was sixteen, and although they drive each other crazy at times, she couldn’t imagine her life without him.

Shortly after her son was born, DL began reading again. With encouragement from her husband, she picked up the pen and started writing. Inspiration strikes at random times (like in the shower or on the way home from school drop off) and now the voices in her head won’t shut up.

DL enjoys listening to music, drinking white wine in the summer, red wine in the winter, and beer all year round. She’s also never been known to turn down a cocktail, especially a margarita.

RELEASE BLITZ: Resisting Love by Katrina Marie

Title: Resisting Love
Series: Whoopsie Daisy Book 2
Author: Katrina Marie
Genre: Small Town Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Forced Proximity, Grumpy/Sunshine, Neighbors
Cover Design: Oh So Novel
Release Date: May 14, 2024

Whose idea was it to pair my happy-go-lucky neighbor with me? Someone is going to regret that decision.

Being voluntold to participate in a planning committee for the Spring Bloom Festival was the last thing I wanted.
Walking in to find out my “there’s always a brightside” neighbor is also on the committee, my worst nightmare.
He is sunshine. I am thunder.
And after my not so graceful entry into his life, he’s someone I avoid at all costs. Except the committee leaders decided to pair us together.
I love Whoopsie Daisy more than anything and would do anything for my business and friends, but why does it have to be this?
So much for staying away from him. Fighting his charm has never been more crucial. Especially with the reputation of the shop on the line.

Even though I knew deep down that was what she wanted to tell me, it still takes me by surprise. Samantha isn’t exactly warm and cuddly, and it’ll be interesting working alongside her. Hopefully we both survive it.

“Did you hear me?” Her eyes meet mine for a split second before focusing on her hands. She runs the pad of her finger over the edge of her nails. In all the time I’ve lived here, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her like this. She’s nervous, and I don’t understand why.

“Yes, I heard you. Just trying to process.”

The woman sitting in front of me right now is a completely different person than the one who barged into my garage and demanded I knock off all the noise. At this moment, she looks uncertain of herself.

“Well, you should probably process a bit faster. I’m the only option unless we pull someone off events or out of the shop.”

There’s the fiery attitude she gave me the other night. It was nice to see her show an emotion besides annoyance. Even if it was only for a small moment.

Soft voices come from the TV, and I finally notice what she’s watching. I never would have pegged her as the type to like reality shows. She notices where my eyes have fallen and grabs the remote before turning off the TV.

“I don’t have a problem working with you, I just want to make sure you are who I’ll be working with for sure. I’d hate to get halfway into the project with you only for something to change and have to fill someone else in on what’s happening.” My deep breath is loud in the now silent house. “And, you were pretty adamant you weren’t going to be a part of the festival planning.”

“Things change,” she shrugs her shoulders. “Emily told me last night their schedules are booked and I’m the only one who doesn’t have any conflicting events.”

Her shoulders sag as soon as the words are out of her mouth. I feel for her. She’s being forced to do something she doesn’t want to do. My heart squeezes at how many things I did because my ex-wife wanted me to. I know she isn’t married, but there’s a bond between everyone at Whoopsie Daisy, and I can’t help thinking this rocked the boat.

“Are you sure you want to help?” Giving her an out is the most gracious thing I can do right now. If anything it should make the frown she’s wearing go away. “I can manage this part of the festival on my own if I need to.”

Samantha taps the side of her leg and looks at the ceiling, mulling over my offer. Finally, her eyes meet mine. “I’m going to help. Whoopsie Daisy had already signed on, and I refuse to tarnish the name of our shop because I’m being inconvenienced.”

I wince at the words. At least I know where I stand. “Glad to have you on board.” Do I really mean that? Right now, I have no idea. All I can do is hope everything will be okay.

Katrina Marie lives in the Dallas area with her husband, two children, bonus child, grandchild, and fur babies. She is a lover of all things geeky and nerdy. When she’s not writing you can find her at her children’s sporting events, curled up reading a book, or binge watching her favorite shows.

I should have listened.
I knew deep in my bones that coming to Pendleton Prep was a mistake. Not that it was ever my choice.
I was handed over to a bunch of Devils, both literally and figuratively, and left floundering in a game full of rules I didn’t and still don’t understand.
The problem is that I refused to remain the prey, and I didn’t stay meek and obedient, no matter how hard they tried to keep me that way.
They took way more than they were due, and the same Devils they once planned to use to control me are now mine to direct. Still sworn to protect, to manipulate, and to avenge, but for our future together, not theirs.
What happens when the tables turn on the unknown enemy? We’re about to find out. Consequences be damned.

It doesn’t have her.

Tropes: Hockey Romance; One Night Stand; He Falls First; Forbidden Love 
Release Date: May 24, 2024
Cover Design: Thunderstruck Cover Design

I kept my nose clean. Bad publicity was the last thing you wanted, and I’d had my share since my last breakup went public. We’d also just lost our last five games.
The boys and I decided to head to the islands for a little R&R. I’d never been so happy for a break. That was where I saw her. She didn’t seem to recognize me, which made it better, so I made my move. We didn’t exchange names or numbers. We shared one carefree night, that was all I wanted and that was all it was supposed to be.
A few months later, regret from that night had almost eaten away at me. I hadn’t been able to get her out of my mind. I wouldn’t say I fell in love with her, or maybe I did. All I knew was that night was the closest I’d ever come to insta-love and I wanted more but we’d had our fun. Yet, I was still mentally kicking myself for at least not getting her name.
We’re about to head into the playoffs when I return home and that is when the universe decides to bring us back together in one of the worst places ever. Only this time won’t be like the last, I decide I won’t let her slip through my fingers. This time, I’ve promised myself nothing, and all bets are off.

I never imagined I’d be back in my hometown, unemployed, and feeling like a failure. Getting involved with someone at work is a huge mistake, especially when he’s a famous football player, and I’m just a therapist they can easily replace.

The silver lining is reconnecting with my best friend…even if he is hot now. I can ignore that detail, right? I hope so because Dean’s helping me fix my grandma’s old cabin so I have a place to stay, and between seeing him shirtless and working with his hands, I might just give in to temptation.
Crossing that line should be awkward, but when he kisses me on a dare, I feel like he’s sparked life into me.
My time in Magnolia Grove is temporary while I figure out my next steps, and falling for Dean is not a part of my plans.
But sometimes challenges lead us back to where we’re meant to be.

H.L Packer is, quite frankly, a busy bee.

An avid reader as a child, her love for all things written waned into adulthood, the excitement of real life things taking over. But when her life slowed down as she finished her office job for maternity leave, her husband purchased her an e-reader, and that obsession was rekindled.

Quickly she went from reader to reviewer, and then from reviewer to blogger; street teams and promo tours galore. When she began collating her own book boxes over at Romance Readers Book Box UK and had the opportunity to include her own words and worlds, the characters began talking.

Those cheeky characters quickly found themselves written down on the page, and her first series was in progress.

When she is not coordinating her worlds, you can find her running around after her free-spirited three children, and husband, or tending to the dogs, bearded dragons, and snakes that also reside with them.

A break can be found soaking in a bubble bath or enjoying a glass of wine, often still with a book in her hand.
