Accidentally Kidnapping the Hitman by Cassie Mint

Accidentally Kidnapping the Hitman by Cassie Mint is out today!

And - despite the hitman thing - it’s super cute! It left me with a smile on my face. 5 stars.

Grab it now:
Amazon 🇺🇸: https://amzn.to/4aZS36U
Amazon 🇬🇧: https://amzn.to/42SXEtT

I promised my best friend the bachelor party of a lifetime. Went the whole nine yards, throwing a bag over his head and ‘abducting’ him from a bar.

One thing I didn’t plan for? His long-lost and dangerous twin brother.

Over the course of one night, I drag the man I think is my bestie around the city’s hottest spots. We face off in laser tag, bust out of an escape room in record time, and raid the best food trucks, all before tearing up the dance floor in a club.

How long does it take me to realize I’ve got the wrong man? I’m so glad you asked.

Freaking hours. And for whatever crazy reason, this mad man plays along.

But even if we have the most fun night of my life, I can’t let my guard down. This isn’t some innocent mistake.

Because this wrong twin is dangerous. He’s a cold-blooded killer.

And he looks at me like he'll never let go.

Accidentally Kidnapping the Hitman is a short and steamy instalove novella, starring a morally gray hero and the soulmate who literally bags her man.

It’s release day for The Kiss Lottery by @ilsama

It’s release day for The Kiss Lottery by @ilsamaddenmills!

And this was a delightful short for Valentine’s Day - even if you’re not normally a fan! Sweet, short and sexy! 5 stars.

A steamy story about first love and second chances where a city girl returns home for a Valentine's Day tradition...and the boy who broke her heart.

Roses are red, violets are blue--someone in Rose has feelings for you.

Yeah, bad ones. Everly Davis didn't leave her tight-knit hometown on the best terms. It's been ten years, but you don't forget heartbreak like that. Then again, the anonymous invite to the annual Kiss Lottery in Rose, Tennessee, gives Everly content for her podcast. And she has a bone to pick with that old heartbreak anyway.

Beckett Whitfield has never left Rose--and he's never forgotten Everly. He even named the villain in his latest bestseller after her. Turns out she's not happy about that. Nothing about their reunion is particularly happy, and after the way they left things, what did he expect?

When the Kiss Lottery pairs them together, Everly and Beckett will have to confront old feelings that never went away and the secrets they never shared. But finally telling each other everything might be exactly what they've needed all along.

Grab it today!

✨It’s cover reveal day for HIT ME WITH YOUR BE

✨It’s cover reveal day for HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT by @saraneyauthor releasing 10th March!

#PreOrderHere
https://books2read.com/HMWYBSSaraNeyKU

What you will find inside:
🏒 Hockey
🏒 RomCom
🏒 Fake Dating
🏒 He Falls First
🏒 Banter

I didn’t mean to roast Gio Montagalo, goalie and crown jewel of The Houston Baddies hockey team. Honestly, I was screaming at the TV in a sports bar like any self-respecting sports junkie does when their team is on a losing streak! So when his twin sister sidles up on the stool beside me, laughing at my commentary, I figured I’d made a fan, too. What I didn’t expect? For her brother—the guy I called “a flashy ice peacock with the reflexes of a sloth”—to hear about it.

Yikes. What were the odds?!
Next thing I know, Gio is in my DMs with a challenge: “Hold up a sassy sign at my game and hit me with your best shot. Roast me in front of everyone.” For him, it’s fun. For me, it’s humiliating. But I did it. Glitter included. And because the universe thrives on chaos, the Baddies won.

Now Gio thinks I’m his good luck charm, begging me to show up with more signs. He also wants to see me—off the ice.

What does a hot, hockey hunk want with a bookish girlie like me?

I try to keep my distance. Mostly.
Soon, Gio is showing up at my job for swoony kisses and trying to charm my dog—also named Gio—and failing because my dog hates him at first sight. I wonder if this whole “lucky charm” thing has less to do with hockey and more to do with the overwhelming, undeniable pull I feel toward him. Or maybe it’s fate’s way of showing me that sometimes, the guy you roast on national TV can be the one you accidentally fall for.
