#NewRelease - Best Match by @PippaGreen12

   

Title: Best Match (Arizona Rattlesnakes Book 3)
Author: Pippa Green
Genre: Sports Romance
Editor: Kerry Genova
Publication Date: Aug. 30th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

From the outside looking in, my life is perfect. I’ve made it all the way from Sweden to the USA to be a star player for the Arizona Rattlesnakes NHL team and we’re having our best season ever. The problem is… I can’t take the heat. Literally. I need to get out of the desert as fast as possible.

 

I have a plan and it’s simple: remain detached from my life, as Tucson is just a pit stop, and when we win the Cup, I’ll get myself traded to any other team in a colder climate. My teammates think I’m a grumpy bastard but that’s just my way of keeping them at arm’s length, so I don’t miss them too much when I bolt.

 

I’ve hit another snag in the form of my new next-door neighbor. Elizabeth’s a ray of jävlasunshine—and we know how I feel about the sun—and she can’t seem to take the hint that I want her gone. My stand-offish nature doesn’t seem to stop her from baking me muffins, doing my yard work, and generally driving me insane with her curves as she prances around in yoga outfits and lounges in her bikini by the pool.

 

I need to resist, but every minute I spend with Elizabeth and her three-legged dog makes it harder and harder to remember why I can’t just let myself go and enjoy her warmth. She may be the best thing that’s ever happened to a grumpy bastard like me, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to let the sexy, taco-loving temptress lure me into staying in Helvete, or Hell.

 

If I stick to my plan I’ll be happy…right? But what if I’m wrong?

 

Best Match is the third book in the new Arizona Rattlesnakes series, a spinoff from Pippa Green's successful Minnesota Raiders series. It can be enjoyed as a standalone novel.

Author: Ember Dante
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Cover Designer: Indie Sage
Publication Date: August 25th, 2022
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

Blurb:

Claire Rossi returned to Chicago determined to maintain her independence. Studying in London for two years opened Claire’s eyes to a world outside the sheltered existence she lived under her overprotective father’s control.

 

Armed with a college degree and a job at a prestigious public relations firm, Claire returned to Chicago ready for a future filled with possibilities. She soon set her sights on the gorgeous and mysterious manager of the hottest nightclub in town.

 

A man who also happened to work for her father.

 

Special Agent Matt Cavalli had successfully infiltrated the notorious Rossi crime family. After four years undercover as John Peretti, he was one of the most trusted men in the organization. But he never expected his assignment would include the boss’s daughter.

 

Bound by his mission, Matt had no choice but to follow orders. Even though he believed Claire was ignorant of her father’s nefarious activities, she was a means to an end, one that would, unfortunately, become collateral damage. She would never be more than a pawn in a dangerous game of chess.

 

Or so he thought.

 

When an unexpected enemy emerges, Matt must decide between loyalty and the woman he loves.

 

**Urgent is a complete stand-alone in the ABCs of Love series where each author delivers a brand-new story for you to rediscover your ABCs.

John opened his eyes and grabbed my shoulders at the same time. Our gazes locked, and in that moment, I knew we were either about to take a major step forward, or he was going to send me on my way.

I was really, really hoping for the former.

That fear disintegrated when John’s mouth crashed into mine. His aggression surprised me, but I opened for him, letting his tongue in to explore. We exchanged lush licks as our bodies moved in harmony. My arms twisted around his neck. His folded around my waist. Our mouths devoured each other, desperate for connection. Seeking unity.

Damn, the man could kiss.

We broke apart, breathless. Heavy pants filled the air between us.

“Claire…”

I rested a finger over his lips. “No one has to know. We’re both consenting adults. We can do whatever we want.”

“You have no idea what I want,” he groaned.

I didn’t believe that at all. If he felt even a fraction of what I did after that kiss, I knew exactly what he wanted. That kiss left me desperate for more, and I was determined to get it. Sooner rather than later if I had my way.

Some destinies are written in the stars. Others must be bought with blood…

The Zodia are real. Clawing their way from a long-forgotten tomb, they emerge, ravenous to claim everyone born under their star signs. Plotting to resurrect kingdoms no human knew existed, they are driven by a hunger for vengeance against the one who buried them: Aries.

Larken is a natural born sprinter, but even she can’t outrun the darkness closing in. A shelter-in-place order has been issued, causing widespread panic. Some brush the alarm off as a drill, until people begin to disappear... vanishing without a trace. Left with only one option, Larken’s brother does what he must to save her life... and calls forth Aries.

Considered a traitor by his own kind, only Aries has the power to stand against the Zodia. But he can’t do it alone. Mystically bonded to Larken, the pair must band together for the fight to come if either hope to make it out alive. Neither anticipated the passion that would ignite between them. Yet, in a world suddenly thrust into chaos, it may be the key to their survival.

The Zodia are out for blood with their attentions inexplicably focused on Larken. When long buried truths finally come to light, will their love be their salvation or their curse?
