"An angsty, second-chance, redemption, hockey romance by bestselling author, Monty Jay
Being the life of the party had always been easy for Emerson Greene until one fatal night five years ago that sent him into a spiral of self-destruction. A night that cost him, not only his best friend, but also the only woman he's ever loved. As a result, the bad boy of the NHL is trying to outskate the ghosts of his past and the regrets that haunt his every turn.
Searching for redemption by clinging to his sobriety and fighting for his spot on the Fury, he never expected that same, brown-eyed girl to walk back into his life with secrets of her own. Sofia Morgan, the woman he can’t risk losing a second time.
Outrunning her tragic past to attain the goals and dreams ahead of her, Sofia is too busy navigating the hand life dealt her, to deal with the sudden return of Emerson and the mixed emotions he invokes in her. But unlike life’s storms, Emerson is not a temporary setback but a permanent crash-course in trouble.
Is Sofia’s return life’s way of giving him a second chance at his happily ever after? Or is their past baggage too much to carry into their future?
Blind Pass is a standalone novel in the Fury series and deals with sensitive subjects some may find triggering."
"Marisa Castilla's life is in need of a rewrite. Her ex-boyfriend/boss just fired her, the guest room she's occupying is about to be taken over by a newborn, and she's drowning in student loan debt. Swallowing her pride, she reaches out to her estranged father and makes the temporary move to Red Mountain, leaving behind her beloved city and corporate ambitions. Transitioning to being a lowly reporter for her father's small town newspaper is a culture shock, and constantly bumping into Ethan Ledger, her less-than-friendly neighbor, who also happens to own the vineyard cottage she's staying in, doesn't make things easier.
Ethan Ledger recently assumed the role of CEO of his family's wine empire. An anxious over-thinker, he wears a grumpy facade like armor. Still adjusting to running the family business, he can't afford any distractions, especially not the beautiful one next door. He only has two rules for his new neighbor/tenant: no visitors and no expectations of friendship. But when Marisa breaks through his tough exterior, friendship soon blooms into late-night texts and telenovela marathons. Feelings develop and lines blur, and Ethan is prepared to break every rule he's ever had for Marisa. However, an enticing offer for her dream job back in the city clashes with Ethan's roots in Red Mountain.

"Christmas has never been this hot . . . or eventful.
Falling asleep on a bench in the marina's parking lot on Amelia Island was not in my plans for last night. Neither is being woken up by Alex Haddock, former QB for the Jacksonville Rhinos, and a grumpy media nightmare.
I don't even know who he is. But one thing leads to another, and we end up in the back of his truck for a steamy night. It's supposed to be just that one time, but now he's here asking me, Livie Sanz, curvy hot mess express and everyone's best friend, to be his fake girlfriend so the media thinks he's settling down.
I agree, because—bonus!—it also gets my mom off my back about dying alone.
We have twelve days before Christmas to prove to the world he's reformed, and to prove to my mom that I am capable of picking my own partner. Even if he looks like he could murder someone with his stare.
The problem is that what started as all fun and games quickly changes into blurred lines and what-ifs. And now, I'm left wondering if there's any way we can both let our guard down enough to admit there might be more here than our arrangement."
"He’s the campus king with a no-girlfriends rule.
But he’s about to break it for the most irritating, sassy-mouthed woman he’s ever met.
Flynn Kingman’s senior year plan is simple: class, getting drafted in the first round, and no romantic complications. Until he chases a rogue baby donkey across campus and meets Tempest Navarro—the one woman immune to his charm.
Tempest Navarro is hiding her bestselling romance novels, anxiety, and a baby donkey in her sorority house. Nope, nothing to see here. Especially not for a jock that’s too hot for his own good. Why does he have to be in her Shakespeare class, saying smart things, and driving her insane?
When they’re forced together by a university tutoring program, verbal sparring turns to undeniable attraction. Especially when Tempest’s emotional support donkey, her meddling sisters, and a whole lot of Kingman siblings are all conspiring to push them together at every turn.
This steamy sports romance features a protective football player with hidden depths, a curvy heroine owning her talents and learning to take up space, an emotional support donkey with perfect timing, and that Bridgertons-meets-American-Football family that’ll make you wish you were a Kingman."

When I'm offered a spot in the best business incubator in the world, I jump at the chance. There's one catch. I have to send letters to the mysterious billionaire who funds the program.
It's a world I don't belong to. Luckily, I meet Javier Pendleton. He's alluring, confident, and fits in with this crowd. We get close, dancing and watching fireworks together . . .
Until it's clear we both want more. He looks at my curves like he craves them, and his serious blue eyes and reluctant smile drive me wild. Soon I can't hold back—but kissing him is a mistake.
Javier has a massive secret he says I won't forgive him for. Now I have to choose if I risk my heart for the man who hid who he is . . . and who says he'll do anything to win me back.

"A wounded heart . . .
It took Jules too long to escape her abusive marriage. Now that she's free, she has no intention of ever risking her heart again. Once a dreamer, she's resigned herself to spending the rest of her life alone, fading into the background of other people's happiness. That is, until she meets Max.
A healing love . . .
Max knew he'd have to journey beyond his pack's borders to find his mate. He hadn't expected her to be a quiet, skinlocked woman with shadows in her eyes and a wall around her heart. Dismantling that wall will take time and care, but he knows it will be worth it to claim Jules as his mate.
An unforgivable betrayal . . .
But courtship is neither simple nor straightforward between skinlocked humans and wolf-kin. When an ancient enemy forces Max to choose between his own people and the woman he loves, the consequences will be irrevocable, and only a love that defies all odds can keep them together.
Contains mature themes."
"No last names, no phone numbers, no job titles…AriellaIn theory, it was the ideal way to keep me from getting attached. My life plans left no room for distractions—not if I was going to break out of my culture’s machismo and prove to my family that I could make it on my own. And the 6’4” Texan rocking boots and a cowboy hat? He was exactly the type of distraction I was avoiding. So when the hot Wrangler-wearing man strolled up to me at a bar with a desperate plea to pretend to be his date, the rules were necessary…and completely useless.
How was I supposed to know my fake date was the star hockey player for the very team I was just hired as the strength and conditioning coach for?
DaltonPro tip: If your goal is to stay single so you can focus on not repeating last season’s disaster, maybe don’t ask a dark-haired beauty with looks that could kill to pretend to be your date. Especially not when her laugh makes you feel alive for the first time in years. Because that charade may last longer than you’d anticipated…and trying to keep things fake? Feels like a damn High Stick to The Heart
****Things to Expect:
- Fake Dating
- Grumpy/Sunshine
- She's his strength and conditioning coach
- Latina FMC (She's Mexicana)
- Lots of banter
- He falls first and falls hard
- Open door spice"
