If I had known that night that being in my life would put her in danger, I never would have asked her to dance.

For years, I’d danced around this flirtation with Bailey. We both knew it would eventually lead to that big, white chapel, overwhelming love, and a lifetime together that would rival any tragic love story.

If it weren’t for that dance.

That was the night everything changed.

I’d been planning this night with Bailey since I was in third grade when I rescued her from the monkey bars.

Ever since then, she was mine.

She knew it. My family knew it. Hell, the entire town had been waiting for the moment I would finally make my move.

Apparently, so was someone else.

But there was no joy where he was concerned, only a need for revenge that would destroy any happiness the two of us shared, along with anyone in my family.

No matter how hard I tried, there was no way out.

Her life was in danger, and it was all because of me. And that was something I just couldn’t tolerate.

She was the love of my life, but keeping her alive was more important than winning her in the end.

Grumpy (Her)/Sunshine (Him), Snowed In

RELEASE DATE: December 9, 2025

BLURB.

For a solid five years, Jasper Madden has done nothing but look the other way when it comes to Calliope Hodges. At first, she was way too young for him, barely eighteen the first time he laid eyes on her. It also didn’t help that he’d witnessed her at the lowest of lows, practically making peace with rock bottom.

But as time goes by, he realizes that Calliope is different. She’s a brave, stunning young woman that has slowly captured his heart while he was watching from the shadows.

He knows that it’ll take time for her to realize that he’s not the enemy, but instead her saving grace. So he decides to play the long game.

For years, he’s waited in the periphery for her to be ready. He stands right there, knowing that one day she’ll look up and finally see him as the man that is desperately in love with her.

But that chip on her shoulder keeps her from looking everywhere but his direction.

Luck finally leans his way when she moves in next door, and a battle of the neighbors ensues.

Where she sees war in the form of a friendly holiday decorating competition, he sees the opportunity of a lifetime.

All it takes is one bed, a freak snowstorm, and a Christmas miracle for her to realize that he’s been there all along. A silent knight in shining armor willing to take on the world just to make sure she never has to feel unworthy ever again.

BLURB.

What’s worse than taking a nasty spill out of the shower onto your bathroom floor?

Having your grumpy, silver-haired neighbor rescue you.

The very neighbor I’d gotten into a heated discussion with when I made it clear, in no uncertain terms, that I would not be decorating my home for the neighborhood’s annual holiday competition.

(Which apparently he’s won for the past three years!)

Aren’t grumpy ranchers like him supposed to be more of the grinch rather than one of Santa’s elves?

But ever since my accident, my neighbor shows up day after day to check on me. With each passing visit he drops off a little more holiday cheer than was here before.

His Christmas spirit starts to envelope me the way his strong arms did when he picked me up off my bathroom floor.

And he’s making me forget all of my reasons for wanting to avoid the holidays and love … but is the same true for the widower who swore he’d never fall in love again?

Joy

I’m living my dream. Owning a cozy little bakery in downtown Snowflake Falls is everything I ever wanted. Even though the holidays are a hectic time of year, there’s nothing better than the feel of Christmas mixed with a bit of sugar.

When an unexpected visitor drops by to say hello, my entire world shifts on its axis. Burk Whitman was my best friend until, right before our first year of high school, he unexpectedly moved away. Now, he’s back in town and being around him isn’t exactly a hardship. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

The problem is, his time here is temporary and if I’m not careful, I risk losing my heart forever.

Burk

One phone call is all it takes for me to come back to Snowflake Falls. With my gramps in the hospital, a huge void is left at my family’s Christmas tree farm during their busiest time of year. Being here after fourteen years might be just what the doctor ordered.

When I hear my oldest friend, Joy Campbell, owns the bakery in town, I have to drop by to say hello. I’m ready to fall back into the familiar banter we once engaged in, but what I’m not expecting is to come face-to-face with the most beautiful woman in the world. Spending time with her isn’t a hardship, and soon, lines begin to blur.

How will I return to the East Coast when everything I didn’t realize I wanted is right where I left it in Snowflake Falls?

[Release Blitz + Review] Mistlefoe by Cambria Hebert

TITLE: MistleFoe

A Frenemies to Lovers MM Holiday Romance

AUTHOR: Cambria Hebert

GENRE: MM Romance

TROPES: Frenemies to Lovers/Small Town

Holiday Romance/Forced Proximity/Opposites Attract

RELEASE DATE: December 1, 2025

BLURB.

‘Tis the season for twinkling lights, cookies, joy, and a little sprinkle of mom guilt on the side. Did I say little? I mean an entire sleigh full. Which is exactly why I’m on my way home to Winterbury for the holidays, something my parents have been pleading for since I left the small-town life for a view of the city nearly ten years ago.

It’s not that I don’t come home to visit. I do.

Just not at Christmas.

The last time I was there, I got wrapped up in the romantasy of the town’s mistletoe legend, and it ruined my entire life. Okay, maybe not my entire life, but it did turn my best friend into my biggest enemy.

And maybe gave me a raging case of mistletoe PTSD.

Don’t laugh. It’s a thing.

Which is exactly why I’m going to do everything possible to avoid the raising of the mistletoe, Archer Hodge, and his Christmas tree farm. I’m just going to help my father out with the family animal clinic and mind my own business.

So of course Archer walks right into the clinic and nearly runs me over with his clompy boots, pine-scented flannel, and trademark scowl. Turns out, even after ten years, he still plucks every last nerve in my body. It doesn’t matter that he looks better than I remember and he’s cradling a beautiful dog who steals my heart.

Archer is my sworn frenemy, and no amount of forced proximity, small-town tradition, or mistletoe magic will ever change that.

Or so I thought…

[Release Blitz + Review] Over the Edge by Kat Mizera

🎸🎸 NEW RELEASE🎸🎸

One Night Changed Everything… OVER THE EDGE by Kat Mizera Is Out Now!

BLURB.

As the rhythm guitarist for Crimson Edge, while my bandmates chase the spotlight, I stick to the shadows. Keeping the beat, keeping out of trouble, and keeping my heart off-limits.

At least, that was the plan... until our tour bus broke down in the middle of nowhere.

She’s a no-nonsense waitress who couldn’t care less about fame, doesn’t recognize me, and definitely doesn’t fall for my smooth lines. She calls me out and flips my world on its axis with nothing more than a look and a cup of coffee.

Two unforgettable days. One reckless night. And then the tour moves on.

I figured that was the end of it… until she calls with two life-altering words: I’m pregnant.

Now everything’s changed. I thought I knew what I wanted—music, freedom, no attachments. But she’s in my head, under my skin, and carrying the one thing that could break me wide open.

This isn’t about the band anymore.

This is about her.

Our baby.

And the man I want to become.
