At SQ's House
We went to Hampton Beach this for one last taste of summer. ➜➜➜➜➜➜
Hurricane Idalia created fantastic high waves for the dozens of surfers that showed up on a perfect blue-bell day.
Temps in the seventies and no humidity made it one of the best days of the whole summer and we walked for two miles in the warm-ish water--for Hampton beach which is usually frigid.
I wish I could can days like that and preserve them forever!
In the meantime, at the end of the day we went to Petey's seafood and had some melt-in-your-mouth calamari--for the second time this summer we hit the calamari jackpot! Lol!
My diet? you ask. Two steps forward and only one step back, so I am making progress!! (strictly speaking, the FRIED calamari was not supposed to be on the menu) 😘💜

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT #3
The Do-Over Girl - a hockey rom-com
Nash
Dissatisfaction grinds through my resolve and good sense, wearing away decency and any vision beyond the here and now. Grabbing my phone, I stalk to my bed and throw myself down.
Adrenaline combines with my horny hormones and refuse to let down, refuse to allow any kind of relaxation. I stab the icon showing Kali’s face on my phone as my heart thuds and my breath heaves in and out.
The phone rings and I can hear it through the wall. Reaching one hand down I take hold of my fucking stiff dick and squeeze, taking control of my breathing and my intentions.
The phone rings again and I can hear her moving through her room and returning to her bed. I imagine her naked and I squeeze my eyes shut trying to hang onto my sanity.
Are you really going to do this? Her phone rings again and I still, holding my breath, only my heartbeat moving. I should hang up and take this business to the shower, relieve my tension there.
"Nash... " Her voice is low and sexy and full of questions and answers.
“I changed my mind.”
She sucks in a breath. "I thought you might." I listen to her strangled breathing as she pauses. "You know I want you. More than I should. But you're so wrong. Like forbidden fruit."
"What would you do with my fruit if you could have it?" My hand shakes as I hold the phone, fear and excitement mingling to bring me to the sharp edge of fucking delirious need.
“You know what I would do..."

from Playing for Love
Gabe
“Mia, I can’t.”
She put a finger against my lips, separating us a fraction. “Can’t commit? Don’t think about it. Think about nothing else but now, about each other, how we feel in this moment.”
Her urgent words sent a tremor through me, sent my cock into a frenzy. I took a long breath and exhaled on a groan as I pulled her in tight, pressed my cock into that perfect inward curve where her thighs met, a warm cushiony holding place until it could find its way inside. I took another long look into her eyes.
All I saw there was everything.
“Do you know how much I want you?” she asked, murmuring close enough for me to drink in the complicated heady scent of her, wafting up sweet and edgy, exotic and earthy from her juicy, aroused pussy. She licked my bottom lip then nibbled, biting down hard enough to spark a jolt through my nerves like an electric charge along a wire, swelling my cock to uncomfortable proportions.
I should step back, should turn her away. I’d be stupid to jump from the frying pan with Denise into the fire with Mia. It would be a dumbass move to have sex the night before a game, something I didn’t do. But as she breathed in my ear, raising gooseflesh—and my cock—grinding her hips against mine, I was growing stupider by the second.
“Fuck.” I couldn’t believe I said it out loud, expressed my true feelings and desires for a refreshing change. I shouldn’t be doing this, shouldn’t put feeding my starving cock ahead of the team. But this was Mia. Hell, it didn’t matter what I did, I’d be letting someone down. The team or Mia. Most of all myself.
She backed off enough for me to see her smile, a note of triumph mingled with her glassy-eyed passion.
“That’s the earthy term for what I want to do,” she said.
I laughed into her mouth, then kissed her hard, not breathing until I could take in enough of her, as if tasting her lips was more important than air right now. The spiraling need took me over, nullifying any common sense I’d started with, which was admittedly paltry.
The bed was a few feet away and I wanted to be lying in it with her, naked. Lord knew my body was more than ready but my head was slower, wanting to cherish her...

Coming later in 2023...
“With a name like Chase, I should have known you’d catch up with me,” she says.
Sporting a wry smile, she pretends to be all casually cynical. I would have believed her act if it hadn’t been for that one night. There was nothing casual about it, or her.
That night was certifiably special, everything about it, from start to finish.
Only problem is I’m dying to re-live the night. And she’s not.
Chase Whittier, just up from the minors to join the NHL's new Portsmouth Whalers, is riding high and out to celebrate in Boston after their win against the Brawlers.
In a departure from his usual behavior, he takes a woman home for a one night stand.
Except this woman and this night are not what he expects from a one-night-stand. He connects with her on a level he’s never experienced before. This can’t be normal.
But when she disappears before the morning, he's more than disappointed because he didn't get her number--or her last name. And though he doesn’t expect to ever see her again, she stays on his mind.
Until two weeks later when he goes to his grandma’s in Boston for Christmas and finds her there.
She's his grandma's caretaker. And not happy to see him. At all.

Two Pucks: Portsmouth Whalers series
a fake relationship billionaire accidental pregnancy hockey rom-com
Sabien
What does a billionaire hockey player and a clueless dog walker have in common?
Besides my dog, we both enjoyed spending one hot night burning up the sheets.
And we both needed something desperately enough to strike a deal.
Possibly the stupidest deal ever imagined according to my lawyer, but once it's done, we're in bed together--literally--for the duration of the season.
The one rule is that we agree to part ways cleanly at the end of the contract. No contact allowed.
No matter what...

Tricky Puck - a fake fiancee hockey rom-com
I'd never heard of a real life matchmaker before, but grandma insists on introducing me to one and makes sure it's really real when she tells me I'm her matchmaker's new client...
Normally, I'd do anything for grandma, but this is a big ask.
I'm not ready to settle down. Not even close. I'm only twenty-five and a rising star in the NHL - otherwise known as a chick-magnet.
After all the hard work and focus I've put in to get to this point, I've barely begun to have fun. No way am I going along with the matchmaking plan.
That attitude changes fast when grandma informs me her clock is ticking and her time's almost up.
And her dying wish is to see me settled down with a nice young woman.
Shit.
She goes on about babies, but my mind is spinning with the knowledge that I have no choice. I need to go along with this matchmaking deal for grandma.
Unless I can come up with a way to give her the comfort she wants, the illusion that I'm settled down--without actually settling down...

Body Check - Teagan Hunter
I have two goals this season:
1. Be named captain of the Seattle Serpents.
2. Stay single.
I’m right on track…until she happens.
Auden Sinclair.
We’re stuck together for a night when our plane is forced to make an emergency landing, and that’s all the promise we make—one night, then we go our separate ways.
Except she pops up again.
Then again.
Suddenly, she’s everywhere. In my head and in my bed, completely taking over my life and ruining all my plans with her quippy comebacks, her smarts, and a body that fits against mine just perfectly.
The problem? Auden is off limits. Forbidden. Strictly in the DO NOT TOUCH zone. She goes against all the rules, but never have I wanted to bend them as badly as I do when it comes to her.
This might be one battle I’m not going to win…

Dare I Ask - Zoe Adams
I’m a freelancer who desperately needs a way to pay rent,
And he’s the sexy rich jerk next door who can’t keep his mail in his own mailbox.
His escapades keep me up all night (where does he even find all the screamers?), so I overslept, and no amount of coffee will save me now. I’m too late for the most important interview of my professional life.
When he shows up with my run-away cat in his arms, I’m practically salivating over his shirtless body, and he says he likes my… cat. Turns out, that neighbor who likes to push my buttons is bff with the boss I want to work for, and he’s the person who got me the referral in the first place. Great.
After my new boss flies me to Aspen, Colorado, to work, I bump into my frustrating neighbor, and that’s when he makes an offer I can’t refuse… This is getting interesting!

Perfect Alpha - Olivia Peters
A delicious second chance romance featuring a strong, protective alpha and his sister's beautiful, sassy best friend.
Cade
Things with my little sister’s best friend are… complicated.
I messed up – badly – so she walked away from our relationship and moved to New York City.
She’s all grown up with a successful career. An independent life of her own. And a hate-on for me. I promised myself that I’d leave her alone, but now that she’s back home – I can’t.
The woman is mine.
Victory
I swore off my best friend’s older brother after he broke all his promises.
He was supposed to give me forever, but he turned our relationship to ash.
When tragedy brings chaos into our lives, it would be so easy to fall back into his arms. He’s begging for a second chance and says he’s a different man now.
But I won’t be burned again.
If you're a fan of Christina Lauren and Elle Kennedy, then you'll adore Olivia Peters' sexy new series.

Soldier for the Starling - Breanna Lynn
My number one objective should be protecting her...instead I'm fighting not to kiss her.
Sawyer
First rule of protection detail. Don't get too attached. Too bad I've already broken that rule—danger is closing in as fast as I'm falling for her.
I need to focus on keeping her safe, but with her honey colored eyes haunting my dreams, all I can think about is touching her, kissing her, worshipping her.
As former military, I've fought every type of unseen enemy. So why can't I fight the fantasies about the beautiful woman I'm charged with protecting?
Evie
Nearly five years ago, I ran from my life. And I've been hiding ever since. But I can't hide from how he makes me feel.
Sawyer King has appointed himself my protector. He'll save me from my past.
Relying on Sawyer to protect me is easier than being vulnerable with him. And falling for him? It's out of the question—even if his kisses have me wishing for more.
I don't want to see him get hurt because he's protecting me. He's just too stubborn to let me go.
I'm not sure if I can trust him with my life or my heart. My greatest fear though, is that I'll put him into the very danger I've been running from...
