Here’s the weekly post from my author blog on the new releases I found to be of interest in my three favorite romance genres (which are also the ones I write in!), and related areas such as time travel, steampunk, paranormal cozy romances and more. I do sometimes cover other releases of note in science fiction and fantasy.
As always, I recommend sampling before you buy! I have not read most of the new releases listed (although I always end up one-clicking a bunch as I prepare these posts). I don’t pick up every single new release each week but try to provide a representative subset and lots of choices.
Here’s a teaser for this week’s first two books (jump to the blog to see the approximately 104+ titles featured this week):
HER ALIEN LIBRARIAN: STRANDED ON EARTH BOOK TWO by Ivy Knox
Mylo Monroe cares about three things: the library he runs, his brothers, and remaining single so he can continue his carefree lifestyle. But much to his chagrin, there’s one woman he can’t get out of his head no matter how hard he tries. Samantha Rodriguez is an award-winning photographer and has spent her illustrious career traveling the world capturing breathtaking moments on film. She was certain her life would never change, but when her mother’s Alzheimer’s worsens, she hangs up her camera and travels to her hometown of Sudbury, New Hampshire, so she can remain at her mom’s side. Luckily, her best friend lives in Sudbury, but that friend is also married to the brother of the hottest one-night stand Sam has ever had. Since her divorce, Sam has vowed to remain single, but when she’s unexpectedly invited to her ex-husband’s wedding, she enlists Mylo as her pretend boyfriend for the event. He plays his role all too well, making them both question whether there’s more to this heat between them than a casual fling. Meanwhile, as her mother’s condition worsens, a nefarious local cop from Sam’s past threatens to expose Mylo and his brothers for what they truly are, making a happily ever after seem impossible. How can she care for her mother and develop a relationship with Mylo when both could be taken from her at any moment?
HIS HUMAN WIDOW (MONSTERS LOVE CURVY GIRLS BOOK 10) by Michele Mills
I married a dead war hero. His name was Fire Lieutenant Byric Sandstone—an extremely wealthy Hyrrokin landowner, with a complicated estate. Obviously, I’m not really his widow. It’s a technicality, on paper so I could bypass immigration and perform my duties. Everyone but the lawyer who forged the signature thinks I’m really Byric’s chosen bound, but my real job is to care for his elderly grandmother and his three-headed wulver. I love my cushy life on Tarvos. One night, the front door to the mansion bursts open. A disheveled, wild-eyed and monstrous Lieutenant Sandstone returns home, having escaped from his prison cell behind enemy lines. Wait, my husband isn’t dead? “Who the hell are you?” he rasps. “Your bound,” I whimper from underneath the sheets. Oh no. How is this going to work out?
