Ivy
Hunting down my biological father wasn’t supposed to lead me to a broody, sexy, triplet biker.
Ryan “Nickel” Garrison ticks all of my boxes, but he prevents me from talking to my bio ‘dad.’
Determined to outsmart Nickel, I never expected to be cornered at gunpoint…or for the sexy biker to put himself between me and the gunman.
We’re captured, knocked out, and taken miles away.
Stranded in the middle of nowhere, Nickel and I work together to escape, only things go from bad to worse.
The threat looms and Nickel insists on keeping me safe even if it means I’m thrust into the world of the Riot Motorcycle Club.
I have no choice but to trust Nickel and his club to neutralize the danger.
Soon I realize, the biggest threat isn’t from criminals, it’s from a man who will break inside my heart.

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars -
4 1/2 stars. I enjoyed this story. Ivy searched for her father and found Nickel/Ryan who kept her from him. Time passed, and then the adventure began. Ivy had not been prepared for what was coming, but I loved her acceptance of the circumstances but kept her mind on her job as well. She blended well with the MC. Ryan was very protective of Ivy, caring, and matter of fact when needed. Their journey was surrounded by family (nice to visit with earlier characters) and friends. I look forward to the next one in the series

From USA Today, #1 Amazon, and BookTok bestselling author Kandi Steiner comes a sizzling, second-chance romance set on the high seas—perfect for fans of Below Deck and readers who crave angsty, high-stakes love stories.
Ember Reed is finally living her dream: chief stew on a Mediterranean superyacht, sun-kissed days at sea, and the star of Close Quarters, the hottest new reality TV show. But just as she finds her stride, the producers throw her a curveball—by hiring the one man who nearly sank her.
Finn Pearson was the one that got away. The boy who kissed her like they had forever, then left without a word. But now he’s the chef in her new crew, and the cameras are watching their every move, innocent, or not.
Even on a superyacht, there's nowhere to hide from the past. Every stolen glance, every whispered argument, every lingering memory threatens to ignite what never fully burned out. And as the tension spills into their day jobs, even the dinner service is spiralling into disaster.
They’ve crashed before… but could eight weeks at sea be their second chance to get it right? Or will it be the storm that finally sinks them for good?

 No, Don't Ever Stop by Marni Mann is now live on audio! Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood & Teddy Hamilton  A guarded billionaire single dad meets the one woman who could heal his heart in this emotional and blisteringly hot romance by USA Today bestselling author Marni Mann. One look at former NFL player Gavin Worthington has Emily craving things she shouldn’t. Yet his scorching-hot body and dangerously perfect smile are everything she wants. At the same time, a single glance at the breathtakingly sexy Emily Wren and her unforgettable blue eyes has Gavin desiring things he hasn’t in years. Their agreement is simple: one night of uninhibited pleasure. No strings, no complications. But one taste isn’t enough, and he can’t get Emily out of his head. Gavin never lets women get close—his seven-year-old son, Ben, is his entire world. But there’s something about the gorgeous nurse that breaks through every wall he’s built. She’s incredible with his boy, lights up his darkest places, and makes him hunger in ways he’d forgotten were possible. The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to deny their growing feelings. Except the pull of Gavin’s past is stronger than they imagined. For this grumpy single dad to move forward and hold on to the only woman who’s made him feel alive in years, he’ll have to convince Emily that their connection is more powerful than the emotional barriers between them. They’ll need to trust that sometimes the most unexpected love stories lead to the happiest endings. All they have to do is take the chance.

Just to be closer to the woman who doesn’t even realize she’s already mine.
Some returns are temporary. Others change everything.
Ava Hughes doesn’t do small-town life anymore.
She’s built a booming food brand in New York City—and she’s not slowing down.
Until a clause in her estranged great-uncle’s will forces her back to Danville Falls for one year… to revive a failing mini-mart she wants nothing to do with.
Coming home was never part of the plan.
Neither was Jim O’Connor.
Once her first love, now the CEO of a powerful gourmet grocery chain and her main competitor, Jim is everything Ava left behind—and everything she can’t seem to escape. The chemistry is still there. So are the scars.
In a town that thrives on history, their past refuses to stay buried.
As sparks turn into something deeper, Ava and Jim are pulled into a second chance neither of them planned for, but neither can ignore.
There’s just one problem.
They don’t want the same future.
Ava won’t sacrifice the life she’s fought to build.
Jim won’t leave the town he calls home.
And when love starts asking for more than either of them is willing to give, they’re forced to face the one question they’ve never been able to answer:
Can love survive when two people want different lives?
Settle the Score is a heartfelt small-town romance about second chances, unfinished love, and the courage it takes to choose between the life you’ve built and the one that’s been waiting for you all along.

GENRE: Literary Thriller

EXCERPT:
THE MARATHON MURDER
Andre was late. He rushed into the house, grabbed his TV remote, and clicked it on. A runner on a track appeared. “He’s on the final straightaway,” a frantic announcer shouted. “Only a hundred yards to the finish…sixty yards…forty yards…twenty yards… He’s crossed the tape!”
The runner staggered to a stop, hands on his knees, gasping to catch his breath. A loud, cheering crowd soon drowned out the broadcast.
“Attention, ladies and gentlemen,” the announcer returned, his voice echoing throughout the stadium. “I now have the official results.” The crowd finally quieted.
“Hermando Montregalo has just broken the world’s marathon record by six minutes, forty-eight seconds!” A roar burst out from the stadium. The exhausted runner raised his arms in victory— cheering fans on the field swarmed around him in a frenzy of admiration.
The camera cut to the announcer in the booth. “Still yet to appear on this final straightaway,” he went on, “is the now ex-world champion, Nigerian Ligajah Lambafa. He won’t reach this finish for another incredible six minutes!” The reporter removed his glasses and addressed the camera.
“Sports fans!” he announced. “This astonishing record will shock the track and field world into disbelief. Today, we just witnessed an unbelievable human achievement.”
Andre switched off the broadcast, threw the remote down, and stormed from the room.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Brad lives with his wife, Norrie, in Oliver, BC, Canada's wine capital in the heart of the Okanagan Valley. Norrie loves visiting all the many grape wineries there. Alas, Brad can't drink wine; he's allergic to sulphates. "I don't like the damn stuff anyway," Brad says. "Just give me a good dark ale." He is a retired art director and designer, now writer. He has published three short stories, which have won placement in a book of short stories three years in a row.
Brad was born in Oregon and grew up in the Willamette Valley. Later, as an adult, after art training, he spent fifteen years working in his own studio in Dallas, Texas. Brad then moved to Canada and worked for two major Canadian ad agencies as a creative art director. There, he ventured into working on TV ads—it was gruelling but fun. His client was Alberta's CP hotels, then he worked for a dairy, producing ice cream. A dream job for sure. Later, Brad opened his own freelance design studio. But he always wanted to write fiction stories. So, on retirement, he has written three books.
This one, based on Ed Steelside, is his favourite.

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars -
4 1/2 stars. Four stories of varying ratings and different cases.
The Final Scene - We met Edwin, Detective Doland, Molly, and Jerry "Hound Dog". An actress was killed in the middle of a performance. Edwin was hired to find the actual killer. With the help of the detective and Hound Dog, he was able to put the clues together.
The Marathon Murder - An astonishing record-breaking marathon winner led to a murder. Edwin traveled in order to solve this case. He again had help from his friends/team.
The Pharmacy Incident - Big Pharma, drug trafficking, and death by plane crash made this a little convoluted, but Edwin had his usual assistance and new friends.
There's Death in Texas - Edwin tracked down a very unusual serial killer in Texas. He gained the trust of police and gangs in order to solve this one.
I loved the interactions with everyone Edwin worked with. Sometimes it felt like there were unnecessary conversations, mostly phone calls. I was incredibly happy to see Molly and Edwin work things out.
