Who would have thought one snowstorm could ignite such a heated, life-altering night?
I’ve always been a biker princess. Forbidden. Off-limits. Protected by a ruthless bunch of outlaws because I’m related to more than one of the members. My father died defending the freedom to ride and live on his own terms, but it’s my stepbrother who ensures my safety.
Until a wild party where stolen kisses and drunken confessions suddenly expose long-hidden truths. There’s a reason I’m guarded so closely, and it’s more shocking than the three bikers willing to risk their president’s wrath as they unravel dark promises from the past.
Diesel, a tower of strength with his menacing gaze and brute strength, but it’s his talented tongue that makes me blush. He’s loyal, sinfully irresistible, and teases me with wicked words and carnal promises.
Revenant, a Marine veteran who prides himself on remaining cool, controlled, and focused. His gray eyes hold me hostage, but his calloused fingers show gentleness and passion I never expected.
But it’s my stepbrother Void who’s heated looks and threats against anyone who tries to touch me prove his thoughts aren’t innocent, and his intentions just might scorch us both. He’s an expert hacker and the only one willing to dive deep enough to uncover my real identity.
Suddenly thrust into a dark world I didn’t know existed, I don’t know what to do. But when a snowstorm hits, and I’m stranded, the three bikers brave the ice and freezing temperatures to rescue me. They notice right away that someone tampered with my car, and danger has found me despite the tight circle of protection. Now I have to figure out how I’m surviving and if it’s Diesel, Void, or Revenant who wants me. . . or if it’s all three of them.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
A quick and steamy read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Becca was attracted to Void, Revenant, and Diesel, but she could not abide by the secrets they kept from her. I loved her independence despite being protected by the MC. She knew that running away in a blizzard was wrong but wanted her space. I enjoyed the different personalities among Diesel, Void, and Revenant, each a complement to Becca. All the different nicknames they had for her were quite entertaining. Well worth reading.

NIGHT LIGHT is an opposites attract, reverse grumpy/sunshine, romantic suspense set on the hauntingly beautiful coast of Maine.
Welcome to Saddle Ridge, where life is hard and love is wild...
Maddox
I'm no stranger to hard work. I've got a family ranch that's on the brink of collapse, a grandfather whose health is fading, and a laundry list of other responsibilities that demand my constant attention.
Every sunrise brings a new fight. There's no time to worry about what might have been with the girl who got away.
But it seems I've avoided Amelia King for as long as I can.
One reckless ranch hand making trouble at her bar is more than I can afford. Her outlaw cousin and his gang of gearheads won't take kindly to the mess my man has made. So I swallow my pride and head into town to make things right.
The moment I spot her, she takes my breath away. Still gorgeous and igniting that familiar fire in my veins, just the sight of her brings back all of my memories. But before I can grab a broom or write a check for the damages, an unexpected phone call interrupts our chaotic reunion.
With my grandfather's legacy now on the line, I'm desperate to preserve it if it's the last thing I do. We're facing an enemy with a dangerous connection to Amelia of all people, and they're determined to stop me no matter who gets hurt in the process. As the stakes get higher, lives hang in the balance, so I do exactly what my sister begs me not to. Forming an alliance with the Fallen Demons Motorcycle Club could cost my family everything. But there's something more dangerous than going into business with the outlaws: admitting I'm in love with their vice president's cousin.
She's been looking for the right man her entire life.
Everyone knows who it is—except her.
Single mom Esme Taylor doesn't do risk. Not anymore. She runs her flower shop in the small coastal town of Willet Cove, raises two kids, and never again depends on a man who might leave when things get hard.
But there's one man she lets close.
Grady Nash has been her best friend for five years. He fixes what breaks, shows up when she calls, and loves her kids unconditionally. He feels like everything she needs.
Which is exactly the problem.
Because Grady runs a surf shop, lives simply, and seems content with very little. To Esme—who needs security, stability, a man with a future—he looks like everything she can't afford to risk.
What she doesn't know is that Grady is hiding a past so toxic, he'll do anything to keep it from touching her life.
A past that comes with a fortune he's never claimed. A scandal that destroyed everything he was. And a truth that—if it ever surfaces—could bring danger and scrutiny crashing down on the family he's sworn to protect.
When buried feelings force them past the safety of friendship, Esme must decide if she can trust the man who's been lying to her for years.
And Grady must choose between the life he's built in the shadows—or risking everything, including her safety, for the love he's never stopped wanting.
Because some secrets are kept to protect the people we love.
And some will test whether love is strong enough to survive the truth.
A remarkable trio whose lives have been cracked wide open by their husbands’ crimes unite to catch a serial killer in this dazzlingly captivating novel.
Beverley, Elsie, and Margot are not your average housewives. They are all wives of convicted killers. During the sun-drenched summer of 1966, the three women form an unlikely friendship after the discoveries of their husbands’ brutal crimes. With their exes—some of California’s most infamous murderers—dead or behind bars, they are attempting to forge a new future for themselves.
Headstrong Beverley tries compulsively to maintain control of everything around her, all while raising two children. Bookish Elsie fights to make a name for herself in the newsroom, working among men who sneer at her career goals. Glamorous Margot prefers partying to homemaking and devotes all her energy to upholding the appearance that everything is fine—anything to quell the shame from her husband’s deceit.
They know people look at them and think only one thing: How could they not have known what their husbands were doing? How much are they to blame? And yet when a string of local killings hits the news, the three women—underestimated, overlooked, shrewd—decide to get to work. After all, who better to catch a killer than those who have shared their lives and homes with one?
At once a riveting portrayal of shattered trust and a story of gripping suspense, The Secret Lives of Murderers' Wives is a testament to the intricacies of women’s lives and how the deep bonds of female friendship can empower, uplift, and lead us to endure.

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars -
4 1/2 stars. I enjoyed the trip into the 60's, the references, etc. as well as a look at what the lives of those who were married to killers were living. Beverley, Elsie, and Margot did their own investigations, found clues, and tried to help others. I had an inkling as to who was doing the killing, but it did take me until about 2/3 of the way through the story. Some parts were slow due to the in-depth descriptions of the three friends and their pasts, but it was definitely an interesting story.
I received an ARC through Netgalley, and this is my unsolicited review.
Long Lost Midwife
by Skye Smith
Historical Fiction | Race & Identity | Women’s Stories | 1930s America
Date Published: September 19, 2025
Publisher: MindStir Media
Pamela appears to be a privileged young white socialite, newly married and expecting her first child. But beneath the polished surface lies a restless, unsettled woman struggling against the suffocating expectations placed upon her. As her pregnancy advances, Pamela becomes fixated on one thing: finding Miss Minnie, the Black midwife who delivered her at home in 1911.
Her request ignites fierce resistance. Both families condemn the idea, and Pamela’s husband, Frank, fearing scandal and loss of control, tightens his grip—bringing in relatives to monitor her movements and even hiring surveillance to ensure she never makes contact with the midwife. Determined and increasingly reckless, Pamela secretly pressures her Black maid to help locate Miss Minnie, setting in motion a chain of events neither family can contain.
What begins as a quiet domestic drama escalates into a volatile confrontation with race, power, and truth. As long-buried histories surface, the search for a midwife becomes a catalyst for racial tension, betrayal, and violence—raising the chilling question: will this birth end in life… or murder?
Long Lost Midwife starts with measured restraint and builds relentlessly toward a tempestuous, unforgettable conclusion. It is a haunting exploration of white blindness, Black resilience, and the fragile illusions that sustain privilege in early 20th-century America.
● Thought-provoking historical fiction
● Novels examining race, class, and gender
● Character-driven stories set in pre-Civil Rights America
● Books that begin quietly and end with devastating force
During the final ten years of a professional career, Smith moderated the Plymouth Writers Group, a MeetUp-based genre writing collective composed of engineers, doctors, legal professionals, technical writers, and MFA graduates. Within this collaborative environment, Smith completed first drafts of three novels, with two additional works developed independently.
Smith holds a degree in History from St. John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota, an academic foundation that profoundly shapes the thematic and contextual grounding of the work. Historical setting, for Smith, is never decorative—it is the backbone of character behavior and moral conflict.
Another significant creative influence comes from many years singing in Sonomento, a Minneapolis-based operatic choir active until 2024. Immersion in opera introduced Smith to the disciplined exactness of musical phrasing and libretto, where text is fluid, expressive, and shaped by emotional register. That sense of linguistic “plasticity” carries directly into Smith’s prose style.
Long Lost Midwife reflects these influences in a novel that begins with restraint and builds toward controlled chaos—examining race, power, and identity in 1930s America with precision, tension, and historical depth.
So, I’ll teach her how to drive, I’ll keep her secret, but one way or another, I’m going to make her mine.
