Tattered Stars | Catherine Cowles

Suspenseful, heart-wrenching small town romances are Catherine Cowles’s specialty, and her latest novel promises to hook us in from the very first page. After nearly fifteen years, Everly Kember is back in Wolf Gap, Oregon, hoping to put old ghosts to rest and to bring healing to the place where everything fell apart. But not everyone is ready to welcome her home or to let her forget her father’s sins, including the town’s sheriff, Hayes Easton. Everly’s return stirs up memories that he’d prefer to leave buried, and from the moment she drives back into Wolf Gap, his only mission is to get her to leave. But everything about Everly is a surprise—her strength, her determination, her bravery—and the more Hayes gets to know her, the more protective of her he becomes. As their romance begins to blossom, however, danger around them starts to close in.

They first meet at a Dia de los Muertos celebration, both in costume, not knowing who the other person is. When they eventually discover that they are the children of bitter rivals, Julieta also realises that the the man she kissed on the Day of the Dead is not only her new landlord, but also her restaurant’s fiercest competitor.

Country | Lila Rose

I can never resist a hot biker romance, and Lila Rose never disappoints. The first book in her brand new Diamond MC series is an age-gap romance between Country, the president of the motorcycle club, and Dusty, a new club girl twenty years his junior. When they first meet, Dusty is 19 and looking for a place to belong. They are immediately attracted to one another and share one night together, but Country sees her as too innocent, too sweet, and too young for a man like him, so he pushes her away. Two years later, Dusty is ready to accept that she’ll never have the only man she’s ever truly wanted. But then she gets kidnapped just as Country begins to see the error of his ways. Action-packed, steamy, full of feels, and with a sweet but protective alpha hero for us to swoon over, I can’t wait for this book.
