Someday by Willow Aster is now live!  From childhood best friends to high school sweethearts…to a relationship so broken it seems impossible to fix… Check out my spoiler-free review below and read this book for free using Kindle Unlimited! 

I’ve loved Sofie Copewell for as long as I can remember.

She was all I ever wanted.

We said someday we’d have a family together and raise them on our ranch in Landmark Mountain.

She was my home. My forever.

I spent my whole life chasing her, hanging on her every word, and lighting up when she smiled at me.

And I never had a single doubt that she felt the same way.

Until she left and didn’t come back…

For eight years.

Now she’s returned, and I’m resentful and want answers.

Answers to why she left without a goodbye, taking all our dreams with her.

But as angry as I am and as much as I fight it, the electricity between us is still as strong as it was before.

And when I get the answers I’m looking for, I realize that she never stopped loving me either.

I want to believe our someday is now, but can I trust her not to leave again?

Someday is book two in the Landmark Mountain series, but each book can be read as a standalone.

The content warnings for Someday are the discussion of child and domestic abuse, and the death of a parent.

Blurb:

I’m the privileged youngest child of the famous McKallister family. He’s a runaway foster kid living rough. We were never meant to meet. This is where our story begins. It’s nowhere near how it ends.

Grace

The beat. The cheers. The thrill of the unknown. I shouldn’t leave the safety of the music arena—my last name is McKallister, after all, and I’m intimately familiar with worst-case scenarios. But I’m drawn by the talent and the turmoil behind the weary eyes of the drummer on the streets. I’ve never seen anyone my age as wild and unrestrained, a lightning bolt of electricity that never hits the same spot on his bucket drums twice. He plays with such confidence, such rage. I have to know who he is and where he learned to bang out drum solos like he owns the night.

I want to help him. No, to save him. If only Rory will let me.

Rory

When I play, I’m in my element. I know how to draw a crowd and how to keep them riveted. For a small period of time every day, I’m special. Talented. Going somewhere. Little do they know I’m going back to nothing: no family, no friends, no roof over my head. When the music ends, I fade into the background like the undesirable I am. And then she shows up, so pretty and polished and pure. I don’t expect her to stay and talk. I definitely don’t expect her to sit down on the sidewalk and drum a song onto my thigh. Yet here she is—anyone’s ultimate dream girl—promising to save me.

Too bad Grace stumbled upon me a decade too late.

Synopsis:

“Is it true…that you pulled a lion from the ocean and fell in love with him?”

ASLAN

The sixteen-year-old boy named after a lion.

A boy with his entire life ahead of him.

A boy running from a terrible secret.

All it takes is one awful night to change everything.

One secret, one smuggler, one boat, one storm.

And he wakes in an entirely different existence.

Staring into the ocean-blue eyes of his twelve-year-old rescuer. 

NERIDA

The twelve-year-old girl named after a sea nymph.

A girl with lofty dreams and absolute faith that she’ll achieve them.

All it takes is a bright, sunny morning to change everything.

One boy clinging to wreckage, one sea cradling him close, one chance at keeping him safe.

He’s illegal and unwanted.

She’s stubborn and so sure.

He’s lost absolutely everything.

And she’s found the only thing she ever wanted.

They begin as rescued and rescuer.

Slowly growing from twelve and sixteen.

He’s not allowed to touch her.

She’s convinced he is the one.

But as each day dawns on his illegal existence, Aslans’s secrets creep ever closer, the death he ran from hunts ever faster, and the darkness that he can’t get free of finally finds him.

And it costs him…

everything.

A true coming-of-age story that spans a lifetime. This book deals with heavy subjects and it is advised you check the Content Warnings on the Author’s website.

Lunamare is a tangled romance that fans of The Ribbon Duet will love. Combining the beautiful drama of Nicholas Sparks with the brutality of dark romance, Pepper Winters has created a tale of soulmates, secrets, cruelty, and heart-wrenching love.

SPOILER-FREE REVIEW: 

Lunamare by Pepper Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Luna Mare (The Luna Duet #1) by Pepper Winters is one of my top reads of 2023. I'm lost in a sea of the feels after reading this book. I finished Luna Mare a few weeks ago and can't stop thinking about Aslan and Nerida. This coming-of-age, forbidden romance is both breathtaking and unputdownable. Pepper pulled on my heartstrings and still has them in her grip with that cliffhanger ending. The ending hit me like a rogue wave, and I can't come up for air until I read Cor Amare (The Luna Duet #2) when it releases on July 25th. Please go into this book blind and experience this heart-wrenching story without anyone spoiling it for you. If you read The Ribbon Duet by Pepper, you will undoubtedly devour this new duet. June 27th release.

Love Sick (Heart Memory Transfer #2) by Monica James is LIVE! Check out my spoiler-free review below. This book is twisted! *𝙆𝘾𝘽𝙍 𝙇𝙇𝘾 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬. 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙖 𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩/𝙖𝙙.

All I want is revenge.

But I’m afraid it will destroy me because I’m not a monster.

Or maybe I am.

And that’s thanks to Doctor Alanna Norton.

She’s tortured me.

She’s made me forget who I am.

And she’s done all this in the name of love.

But the love I feel for my son, who was stolen from me, will triumph. I won’t accept any other outcome.

There is another love which I will fight for—Dutch Atwood.

But what I find…the sting of betrayal lingers. I look at Dutch through new eyes; he doesn’t trust me, and I don’t trust him.

I’m faced with so many scenarios—I wish I knew how this story ends so I can make the right choice.

But there is no right in the hand I was dealt.

Alanna wants love so badly, so I intend to show her what true love looks like, because the only thing that matters is getting out of here…but not before I take from Alanna what she took from me.

Her heart.

Blurb:

From USA Today Bestselling Author Nikki Ash comes an emotional standalone romance about finding love after loss...

Aubree

After losing my husband, life was all about taking care of my kids and trying to remain afloat.

Brody and Hayden crashed into my life with the force of an entire ocean.

Five years is a long time to be alone.

Now, I have not one but two sexy and successful men to drown in.

But can I handle the desires, passions, and love they both deserve?

Plus, two men mean double the heartache.

And my heart? It's already mended haphazardly, cracked in multiple places from my loss.

Falling for them could be a disaster.

Choosing between them would be impossible.

But the heart wants what it wants.

And despite my better judgment, I want them both.

Oh, and did I mention that they're best friends—and want to share me?

Things just got a lot more complicated...
