New Book Cover Reveal!

Tricky Puck

💜💜💜💜💜💜

Hey there !

My husband often wonders what I'm doing stuck at my computer for hours on end since I'm clearly not always writing--if I were, I'd surely have finished my book in a week!

What am I doing? One of the things I do to take a break while writing and rewind my creative energy--think of it as like catching your breath after a sprint or after you've been under water and come up for air--is work on cover ideas and helping my cover designer with choosing the male models, the colors, the fonts, logos, etc.

This week is your intro to my latest pre-order, Tricky Puck, available in 2024 and the COVER REVEAL!

Have you ever doodled in the middle of doing something else to distract your mind for a while?

That's what I do when I'm writing and it gets so intense that I need a break--and sometimes my doodles turn into book covers!

This was a quiet week where I spent most of my time--you guessed it!--stuck--I mean standing at my computer. ➜➜➜➜➜➜

Truly, writing this book, The Do-Over Girl is more fun than I've had writing in a long time! ❤️

My weight loss progress? Hint: There was no eating out, no company, no visiting (not much fun either! Lol!) (kidding) and we went for a few walks. So... (cue the drumroll...) I lost 3 pounds!!

Now, as we all know, the tricky part is to keep it off and keep losing.

Hint: This may be extra tricky in a couple of weeks when I go to Florida for a writers conference... 😘💜

Coming in September!

The Do-Over Girl - a hockey rom-com

Coming soon - September 26th release

Kali

What's worse than getting fired from your big New York City executive job in front of the entire office?

Surely it's the fact that the boss who just fired you was your fiancee ten minutes ago--before you ditched him.

But heck no--that's not it.

The worst thing?

Running away back to the scene of your worst nightmare to take a teaching job at your old high school...and running straight into the devil himself.

With the Principal's office door all the way open, I glance at the man standing there.

And my heart nearly stops, then stutters to a rapid fluttering beat. I'm going to die.

He leans against the windowsill, hands in his pockets, messy wet hair looking like he came directly from the locker room, his dark stubbled unshaven chin looking like it was meant to give a girl whisker burn—between her legs.

My knees collapse from shock and the weight of too many emotions piling on me all at once. I grasp onto the door handle, hard, to hold myself up.

The door moves and I stumble anyway, falling all the way to my knees, literally at his feet. Shit.

He looks down at me as I hastily get up off the floor and straighten my skirt. Embarrassed much? Heck yeah. I bet I have the lovely red face to prove it.

“Hello Kali.” His voice is the same, made of sinful velvet decadence and hard raw sex.

I gulp, then manage to rasp, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m the new hockey coach..”

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the star of my biggest nightmare, Nash Lewis, former NHL hockey player--turned high school coach.

Somehow after 17 years, we're both back to where we started at Andrews Point Academy... for a do-over?

from He Has It All

Chelsea

“Do you know how special you are? How much you rock me, how beautiful and sexy you are? I can’t resist you anymore, Chelsea.” He nibbles and I sigh and purr and kiss him back.

“Don’t resist.”

He cups my face in his hands, finds my mouth with his and plunges in with his tongue, trying to communicate without words. I feel his raging cock through our clothes and he pushes the door open and moves us inside my bedroom.

Once he kicks the door closed behind him, he drags me to the bed and we collapse there, making the old springs squeak. I don’t care if the whole bed gives in. I need this man tonight. This has to be right. I’ve never felt anything so right.

Rolling away, feeling hot and bold, I kneel and begin undressing for him—not in a siren striptease, but in a slow, sultry invitation. He growls his admiration. I feel heat pouring all the way from the arm’s length I hold him at.

Then he strips and I try not to drool at the ripple of muscle, the hard rounded swell of his chest and shoulders like an exquisite carving of the perfect man. Except he’s real. And he’s so much more than prime beefcake. But right now it’s easy to focus on his strength and his masculine beauty, especially once he kicks his pants off.

He stands before me with dilated pupils and a majestic cock, ready to make love. His face holds a look of rampant desire mixed with admiration and awe as he rolls on a condom and stares back at me as I kneel on the bed, naked.

“My unicorn,” I say. If there ever was one, he’s it. 

“If that’s what you want to call it,” he smirks.

My laugh is nervous as he moves to me, slow and deliberate...

COVER REVEAL!

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. Because 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...

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...

SQ's Featured Authors

Double Exposure - Ariana Rose & Emma Nichole

I have a feeling her skin would taste better than the rare cask Macallan in my hand.

Deep, rich, sweet, warm... like sin.

First, she saunters by me in a darkened nightclub, taunts and teases me, then she is sitting in the front row of my lecture the next morning looking like Venus herself. 

She appears to be much too young for me. 

I should run from her. Run from how badly I want her. 

But I'm a masochist in sadist clothing.

She could give me the pleasure I desire...

Or she could destroy me.

She danced for me that night and sealed her fate. 

I wanted to feel her, kiss her, bask in her.

But, her presence cracks me open, exposing my every secret, my every sordid thought, and private moment.

And yet, that only makes me want her more.

I shouldn't crave her. This is dangerous.

But, if I'm already going to hell, I’m going to relish every moment on the way down...

She wants to make him suffer.
