Running from the Storm: A Christian Romance by Julia Colquitt Allen

About Running from the Storm: A Christian Romance by Julia Colquitt Allen:

**Sometimes the hardest storms to escape are the ones within.**

Grief brought Chandra Fenimore to northern Mexico, where teaching at a remote mission school offers a chance to begin again after the loss of her parents. There she encounters Andrew Gunderson—a man defined by wreckage.

Andrew has spent two years running from the ghosts of his past. Anger is easier than grief. Work is safer than hope. Trusting God feels impossible.

As Andrew slowly lowers the walls he’s spent years building, Chandra begins to see the man hidden beneath his anger. But when danger forces Andrew to confront his past, the fragile hope growing between them is put to the test.

Both Andrew and Chandra must choose whether they’ll keep running from the storms behind them—or trust God to lead them through the storm ahead.

The Cowboy’s Forever Promise (The Westons of Montana Book 6)
by Elsa Winckler (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
Book 6 of 6: The Westons of Montana
A laid-back Montana cowboy who flies by the seat of his pants and dodges commitment. A buttoned-up organizer who plans every detail—until one impulsive night flips her world upside down.

Carson Weston lives in chaos—his ranch house a disordered mess and his relationships are as casual and temporary. Only behind the camera does he chase perfection, capturing evocative shots on his family’s ranch. Then a sizzling, no-names night in a Spokane bar with the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen ends with him waking alone.

Abby Swanson thrives on order. After a chaotic foster-care childhood, she plans every detail and discards anything messy—especially emotions. One-night stands? Never. Until that hot cowboy, the one with one blue and one brown eye makes her break every rule—just this once. When Abby arrives in Marietta to organize her best friend’s new home on the Weston Ranch, the last person she expects is Carson, complete with a meddling matchmaking family.

Can two total opposites let go so they can claim the forever they never knew they wanted?

A steamy cowboy Western romance brimming with ranch life, family bonds, and scorching heat.

Taming Jett by Carly Bryant

Taming Jett by Carly Bryant

Here’s the thing about Jett Reyes-Villanueva: he’s very good at leaving.

Not because he’s cruel. Because he built exits into everything, back when he was a closeted kid getting shoved into lockers in Sunset Park and staying meant being a target. Twenty-four now, openly queer and the best event planner in Brooklyn, surrounded by the found family that’s held him together since high school, he has a life designed to work exactly the way it does. Nobody stays. That’s the system.

Then Ellis walks into his gym.

He grew up on Long Island, moved to Brooklyn, and is carrying a secret he hasn’t found the words for yet. He’s quiet where Jett is loud, careful where Jett is reckless, and somehow exactly the wrong man for someone with no intention of falling in love.

Jett doesn’t mean to fall. But what starts as coffee becomes something he has no system for. Something that gets past every defense he’s spent years building. Something that, against all logic and personal history, makes him want to stay.

Loving Ellis turned out to be the easy part.

It’s letting Ellis love him back that breaks everything open.

Taming Jett is a steamy, queer-tender contemporary romance about the difference between freedom and running, and what it costs to finally choose someone out loud.

Book Two in the Chaos Coven series. Reads as a standalone.

Sweet Twins For My Brother’s Best Friend by Claire Kirby

Sweet Twins For My Brother’s Best Friend by Claire Kirby

I gave him my V-card. He gave me twins.

Chris Stephens, a chiseled fitness club owner and deliciously sensuous, is the last man I want to get close to.

He’s ten years older, my brother’s best friend, and a man I love to hate.

I didn’t like the cocky, arrogant jerk when my brother brought him home on college vacations and, since he was left at the altar five years ago, he’s only gotten worse.

Starting my own CPA firm right out of college, there’s no time for distractions, but when my big brother asks me to help Chris with his finances, I grudgingly agree.

Suspecting employee embezzlement, we spend late nights crunching the numbers, and I soon find myself gasping beneath him as he claims my innocence.

Things are bound to get ugly when my brother finds out I’m being devoured by this damaged man who wants to marry me, and we’ve got not one, but TWO, sweet babies on the way.

His Practically Perfect Plan B by Neenah Davis-Wilson

A fiancée’s betrayal. An inheritance soon to be forfeit. A marriage of convenience could save it.

When Stephan Deverill’s cousin, Charley Ascott, steals his fiancée, Stephan’s inheritance—and future—are suddenly at risk. With a fast-approaching deadline to marry, he seeks out the last woman Charley dated and is unlikely to fool again: Thomasyna Tollefson, a talented actress with no time for any man connected with Charley’s family.

Stephan thinks he simply needs a marriage of convenience. Nothing more. But after saving Thomi from a fall off her cliffs, he’s smitten—she’s witty, strong-willed, and unlike anyone his controlling father has ever approved of.

Thomi isn’t so easily won over. She’s looking for love on her terms. Her identical sisters think Stephan’s the answer to her prayers. But, if she doesn’t want him, they’d be happy to fight for her place!

Of course, Greggory Deverill’s plot to keep his son safe from a volatile actress could derail everything before Thomi makes up her mind.

But Stephan’s heart is set on Thomasyna. Despite the odds, can he prove his love is real before time—and trust—run out?

If you love witty banter, loyal dogs, and slow-burning chemistry with a dash of chaos, you’ll adore His Practically Perfect Plan B!

MARIO by Claire Kirby

MARIO by Claire Kirby

I was hired to clean up his empire and reduce his risk.
Then I became the one risk he couldn’t control.

I don’t trust powerful men.
Especially not men like Mario Conti.
Older. Ruthless. Untouchable.

The newly established don of Chicago, with two grown sons, a dead wife no one talks about, and a family name that opens doors most people are smart enough not to walk through.

My job is simple.
Audit his company.
Protect Conti Enterprises.
Keep the wrong people from asking the right questions.

But nothing about Mario is simple.
His business is too controlled.

His family is too careful.
His secrets are too deeply buried.

And the more I push, the closer he pulls me.

Into his office.
Into his home.
Into a relationship as explosive as it is forbidden.

I tell myself I won’t fall for him.

Not for his power.
Not for his restraint.
Not for the way he makes danger feel like desire.

But Mario Conti doesn’t love gently.

He claims.
He protects.
He consumes.

And by the time I realize how dangerous his world really is…
I’m already carrying his baby.

Deady Obsession by A.L. Long

Deady Obsession by A.L. Long

There is no greater evil than the ones you trust the most. I know this. I have always known this. So why do I keep searching his face for something different?

From the moment I woke up, my life was never my own. And now I’m trapped in his gilded cage, trying to piece together the life I lost eight years ago—and failing, because some mornings I wake up and cannot remember what I was so desperate to get back.

I hate him. He has taken everything from me, even my freedom. And yet.

My heart wants to believe that there is good in everyone. In him. God help me, even in him.

Maxim

Eight years I spent hating her for what she took from me. I had a plan. I had a reason. But the minute I saw her, I felt the plan crack somewhere down its center, and I have been pressing my hands against it ever since, trying to hold the two halves together.

She was like a siren, and I knew it, and I had to have her, knowing the risk. I told myself it was strategy. I told myself I was still in control.

No matter how much she begs, I will never let her go. I can’t. I don’t know anymore if that’s because of what she did, or because of what I feel. I’m not sure there’s a difference now. I’m not sure there ever was. She is mine and no one will ever take her from me.

Forbidden Obsession is the fourth book in The Red Knights Series. Each book is a standalone with a HEA. This is a Dark Mafia Romance which features scenes of a violent nature as well as those with explicit sexual nature with TW.

Twisted Obsession by A.L. Long

Twisted Obsession by A.L. Long

Lara

I despised him with every fiber of my being, and now he was coming after me. He was the monster who had taken my mama and papa from this world, and I was next on his list. The moment I stepped away from my childhood home, I understood that there was no going back. Larissa Zhukova had to vanish, and in her place, Sarah Jones emerged to navigate the shadows of a new life. That was until he tracked me down, his thirst for vengeance over what my father had done burning fiercely. But never did I imagine his revenge would involve binding me to him in marriage, compelling me to bear his heir. I had to find a way to flee, to escape his suffocating darkness before it consumed me entirely.

Dmitri

Vengeance had never tasted so intoxicatingly sweet, and there was nothing I desired more than to claim Lara as mine. She might believe her father had perished, but I knew the truth. Her family had ruthlessly stripped away everyone I loved, and it was time they faced the consequences. In the icy caverns of my heart, there was no room for love. Lara served a single purpose: to provide me with an heir. However, she had unexpectedly become an obsession, and with each passing day, she peeled away the layers of the dark armor I had encased my heart in, threatening to expose the vulnerability I had buried long ago.

RISKING IT ALL by Christi Barth

RISKING IT ALL by Christi Barth

Griffin Montgomery found his calling when he kept his friends alive after a high school bus crash in the Alps. As a Coast Guard search and rescue pilot, he’s used to high-stakes missions, wild weather, and the occasional dolphin in distress. But when one reckless decision goes too far, Griff is suspended. With nowhere to channel his restless energy, he turns his focus to the one thing he’s never tried to rescue before: a woman who doesn’t want saving.

Chloe Widmore thrives in her quiet, ordered, risk-free existence as a professional letter writer for, well, reasons. When the hottest man she’s ever seen invades her coffee shop, it’s surprising how much she wants to be with him. Griffin makes her deliciously uncomfortable in so many ways. He’s reckless, charming, and entirely wrong for the safe life she’s worked so hard to create…so why can’t she stop thinking about him?

Jettisoning Chloe out of her comfort zone is a great way to distract Griff from his career’s death spiral. Working on the Naked Men blog with his best friends keeps his mind busy. But he itches to get back into action. Could he even be happy if he’s grounded permanently? Or could falling in love with the right woman be all the risk he needs?

Can love bring them home?

Wanda Irwin is too busy with her thriving greenhouse and plant rental company to attend a mandatory team building exercise.

Forces of Destiny by A. Akinosho

Life’s complicated—add a crown, and it’s a royal mess.
Tola Adetoye is your average woman—well, if you ignore the daily battle with her untameable hair. Her life is as chaotic as Chicago traffic: college, odd jobs, and caring for her bedridden mom.

Suddenly, her worries don’t seem so daunting—or so she thinks.

Their connection is instant, the chemistry undeniable, but how can she explain that her future isn’t exactly her own?
