Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood & Connor Crais

A sizzling and swoony single dad, forbidden, billionaire romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …

Captivated.

Addicted.

Mesmerized.

All the things I felt the minute I saw Addison Lark.
The last thing I’d expected was to fall in love at a strip club.
But Addison was the woman of my dreams.
It didn’t matter that I spent an obscene amount of money just to talk to her.
The fiery redhead made me feel things I’d never felt before.

But she didn’t want anything to do with me.
And she left without a backward glance.
Making me crave her even more.

Imagine my shock when we unexpectedly met again, presenting the most unexpected problem—Addison Lark was forbidden.

But did that stop me?
Did that stop us?

I’d made a promise to start living my life, and I wasn’t going to let that woman walk away for a second time.

I have to tell you a few things about this book. I was with Monica when she met one of the characters she wrote about in the second book of her memoir Love Harder.  I believe I make a cameo appearance (with a nickname) unless I got edited out 🤣  We shared a lot of wine and laughs over that long weekend. You need to read Love Hard first. Fun fact: Monica has great feet; you'll know what I'm talking about if you read Love Hard. That is all.  Oh, check out the cover and synopsis.  Monica and her unicorn are the models on the cover!

LAST ITEM: Come chat with Monica, her unicorn boyfriend, and me this Friday at 8 pm EST on Monica's Insta! It's going to be fun. https://www.instagram.com/

BLURB

LOVE.

O

V

E

Once upon a time, I looked at love through rose-tinted glasses because love is meant to conquer all, right?

However, was I just a hopeless romantic at heart, chasing the proverbial happily ever after?

Being a romance author, one may think I know what I’m doing when it comes to love. But I hate to spoil the ending for you, dear reader; love and me, we aren’t friends. And we haven’t been for quite some time.

That’s not because I don’t believe in love.

On the contrary.

And that’s the reason we are here…again.

We all have that one person.

For me, he caught me unaware, and that’s when life usually screams KEEP UP!

And most times, we can’t.

If you’ve read Love Hard, then you know how love and I were no longer on speaking terms. But I wrote something which was a sign from the heavens. Or perhaps, hell…

I’ve learned that good men are like unicorns. Everyone talks about them, but no one actually sees them.

How I’m eating my words because I’ve found my unicorn. But does that mean I’ve finally learned my lessons in love? Is your beloved narrator about to get her HEA after all?

Buckle up, bestie, things are about to get wild.

Love hits you when you least expect it…and we are never ready for the fall.

Blurb: 

You can fall in love in a matter of days.

It can take years to recover from the loss of it. I know that all too well. When I fell for Gavin Vaughn, I never expected to watch him marry someone else. The experience changed me, shaped the woman I became.

Now he’s divorced and wanting to reconnect after twenty years. As if that same shattered heart doesn’t still beat inside me.

He’s as charming as he ever was, better looking, too. And a star player for the NHL team in the city I just relocated to.

I’m not that same girl who loved him and watched him leave. I’m a woman who built her own empire from scraps. I’m also the woman who will be mentoring his daughter to do the same.

I’m the woman who can still be brought to her knees by the only man she ever cared about. But it’s going to take more than sly smiles and bouquets of flowers to convince me he’s worth my time. Or my heart.

Synopsis:

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…

No one but me knew why I was actually in the California desert that day.

Nestled deep within the desolate, rocky area was a recording studio.

When a door suddenly opened, a man mistook me for someone he was supposed to be interviewing for a job.

The next thing I knew, I was whisked inside.

The position? An assistant on the upcoming tour for one of America’s most famous rock bands.

Pretty exciting opportunity for a twenty-two-year-old, just out of college.

Not surprisingly, I bombed the interview.

When I ended up mistakenly walking into the men’s room on my way out, I struck up a conversation with a stranger—not realizing it was the lead singer, Tristan Daltrey.

He seemed to like the fact that I had no idea who he was, that I saw him as a normal person.

That night, I got a call offering me the job.

So began my complicated story with Tristan.

Millions of women loved him.

Yet for some reason, after the shows, he only wanted to hang out with me.

Late-night talks. Casual dinners in his hotel room.

I wasn’t supposed to be fraternizing with the band’s frontman.

Despite our fifteen-year age difference, Tristan and I had a connection.

But I had a secret.

One that would eventually lead to my leaving the tour.

And one that would lead Tristan and the band straight to the small town where I came from.
