BLURB

Five friends, one city- unlimited chances for love.  Join Jessica, Kelly, Alex, Erin and Ryder as they find their happily ever afters in this five book series. Friends to lovers, forbidden fruit, knight in shining armor— this series has it all!

Each book is completely stand alone.

Hidden Heart
Jessica has counted herself out of the rat race of love. She’s content to keep herself securely fashioned in her steady box. Safe job, great friends, and no romance. But when she meets Royce, he threatens to blow a hole through the thick wall she’s hidden herself behind. He’s determined to break through and capture her hidden heart.

Secured Heart
Kelly has been waiting for her knight in shining armor to ride in on his white horse and rescue her from her ordinary life. But he’s taking his sweet time. Taking matters into her own hands, she dives into a world she’s unprepared for. Kendrick has never seen a woman more impulsive than Kelly. She wants everything, and she wants it now. And damn if he doesn’t want to be the one to give it to her. But there’s more at play here than boy meets girl. Bad men linger in the shadows where fears are hidden and doubts hover. Can they pull together to secure a future or will the darkness tear them apart?

Indebted Heart
Alyssa Sanders is on her way to Chicago for a fresh start. No stranger to bad luck, she keeps her expectations low. What she’s not expecting is to find her severely dominant, extremely attractive boss is also the son of a close friend. Alyssa’s never been good at relationships. But Alex is easy to be with, even when he’s being overprotective and bossy.  So when he tells her he wants more than friendship can she put aside her fears of failures and give them a real try?

Liberated Heart
As a devoted fiance with a house in the 'burbs and friends she trusts with her life, Erin Stamper is living the dream. When her fiance announces he's in love with another woman, her world is shattered.  With so much sudden turmoil in her life, Erin decides to stop being the practical, dependable, and vanilla person she has always been and looks to explore this new world.

Dominant Bradley Sorenson promises to show her everything she wants to see, and more. But as she begins to find contentment in her true self, she receives a letter which starts a chain of blackmail that could ultimately end her new relationship.

Daddy’s Heart
Samantha’s starting over, this time in Chicago, and she needs a place to crash when she gets there. Luckily a family friend is hooking her up with a spare room.
The catch? The room is in the apartment of an insanely hot guy. To make matters worse, he has every mannerism of a Daddy Dom that sets her imagination ablaze.

Ryder doesn't mind giving up his spare room to help out a friend. But, his friend didn't explain how attractive Samantha was, or how easily Ryder would become consumed with her.
She's a friend of a friend- making her completely off limits.

But, there's a past catching up to her, and he's going to be certain she stays safe.
He'll take care of Sammy and give her everything she needs. More importantly, with his stern ways, he'll give her everything she deserves.

MY REVIEW

Falling for the Windy City
Oh my goodness!  This author has made it so easy for us to fall in love in the Windy City, she put all 5 books in the series into this one perfect collection.  And you are going to want to miss it.

Hidden Heart
HEA isn't for her or so she thinks
Usually it is the guy who is the commitment phobe, but in this book Royce is all in from the first kiss. Jessica needs a little more convincing with her jaded history. Thankfully the author made Royce a character who won't stop until he reaches his goal an no is not in his vocabulary. I love that he works until he gets his HEA. This author continues to impress me with her alpha males and the ladies that they love. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
4 stars

Secured Heart
Learning patience and your place
Another perfect story from the queen of dominance and alpha males. I really enjoyed this book, I liked the way the characters were so real and connected with their friends and each other. I wasn’t sure I was going to be on Kelly’s side, for an intelligent woman she seemed a bit (okay a lot) impulsive, but as we slowly learned her story it made so much more sense. I loved Kendrick from the beginning. The author wrote him as this strong alpha male who took the pains of the injured onto himself. Luckily the author was sure to give them such excellent friends to guide them to their HEA. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series because I absolutely loved this one.
5 stars

Indebted Heart
Letting go is so very hard
I guess after you raise your mother keeping control becomes second nature and a way to survive. Well until the only thing worth surviving for is insisting on you relinquishing the reins. This book is a wonderful addition to the Windy City series. The author made this book so very realistic and I felt like I could just walk into the club and join them. I loved how the characters moved together to create this awesome story and how the author was able to infuse such emotion into the book. I especially enjoyed the way the characters pushed through the bumps in the road and found their HEA. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
5 stars

Liberated Heart
When your world comes crashing down
Poor Erin, her life as she knows it ends, but in that ending she finds a beautiful beginning. I know it all sounds too simplistic, never fear the author did not leave us wanting. Blackmail and the past shake up this story before it becomes too sweet. And her demanding, sadistic dominant has his focus completely on her as they navigate the troubled waters. Bradley might not have thought he was looking for a HEA, but the author saw fit to help him find one anyway. I absolutely loved this book and can't wait to see what happens next.
5 stars

Daddy’s Heart
Talk about an instant connection
The author did not disappoint with this latest addition to the Windy City Series. These two characters were just meant to be. This little doesn’t mind letting her snark fly and Ryder has just the discipline to keep her in line. They might just be each other’s perfect HEA, well if the past doesn’t ruin it. I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait until the author gives us her next book.
4 stars

Book Birthday – Bishop – Teresa Gabelman




Bishop (The Protectors Series) book #15

Published to Amazon on February 26, 2020

Author Teresa Gabelman
Amazon



Witch hunter and new VC Warrior, Bishop Valentino, takes pride in his duties, both past and present. Never once has he doubted his past as a witch hunter. That changes when a beautiful, independent witch occupies his mind more than he’s comfortable with.

Helping his new brothers of the VC keep all the Dragonfly Coven safe from the diabolical warlock, Orjyll, is Bishop’s number one priority. When that priority begins to shift and his focus is pulled away, his allegiance to the brotherhood is at risk.

Saving the world is something Bishop and the Warriors tirelessly do every day. But keeping witches safe is something new for Bishop, and if they fail and the Grail women fall to what the Fates bestowed on them many years ago, Hell on Earth could come swiftly.

To lose the epic battle between good and evil is not an option. Bishop has to find balance between his oath to the brotherhood and his heart. If not, life as he knows it will change forever.



#newrelease #bookbirthday #bishop #theprotectorsseries #nextgreatread #paranormalromance #hottreeediting




New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Teresa Gabelman, writes paranormal romance and contemporary romance with a side of humor in each story. Her heroines are strong and independent keeping the sexy alpha heroes on their toes.



Being a wife to a wonderful man who was my high school honey and a mother to a 17-year-old son who is my world and working 40 hour weeks takes up a lot of my spare time. Even with all of that I still find time to read my favorite authors and find new ones to give me a break from reality. My love and passion for the written word sent me on a journey 18 years ago, a journey to be able to do what my favorite authors do for me and that is to take someone away from the daily grind and send them into a world where they can root for their hero’s, hate the villain’s, love and well be kind of jealous of heroine, laugh, cry and be bummed when ‘The End’ comes too quickly. 18 years ago I wrote my first book. 17 years ago I had my son and life happened. It’s time to travel the road that I had to detour from for a time and achieve my goal, my dream and hopefully my reality.

Being a full-time writer has allowed Teresa to connect more with readers which is what she loves most about writing. If you find the time, she would love to hear from you!

Release Boost - Filthy Bastard - Madison Faye



Eden Books - http://bit.ly/35uU34L




Synopsis 

Stealing her was never part of the plan.
Now keeping her is my only obsession.

There’s no reason our worlds should have ever mixed. She’s an angel, I’m a fucking beast—a rebel, an outlaw, a Bastard. I was born on the blood-soaked streets of Belfast, and reborn again on equally bloody ones of Boston.

But Nicole’s my addiction, my everything—my red-haired, blue-eyed, freckled skin, killer-curved obsession. And I’ve been watching her for months—hungry, hard, and aching for her.

It’s her father I’m supposed to take. The crooked, mob-bought Boston District Attorney has been pinning the crimes of his masters on my brothers. I was supposed to take him, to teach him a lesson. Except, he’s not there when I come calling.

But she is.

Like I said, our worlds should’ve never mixed—the innocent, brilliant, pre-law college girl and the filthy-talking rough and tumble biker. But now, they’re forever tangled. Because now that I’ve gotten my filthy hands on my firecracker of a captive, and gotten a taste of those sweet lips and smart sass, there’s no fuckin’ way I’m letting her go.

The mob wants to kill us both. There’s betrayal in my own ranks. It’s us against the world.

The thing is, they want Nicole? They’re going to have to come through me. And if they want to try that, they better bring a goddamn army.

From captive to my Queen. Nicole’s mine, and I’ll never let her go.




About the Author 

USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling contemporary romance author Madison Faye is the dirty alter ego of the very wholesome, very normal suburban housewife behind the stories. While she might be a wife, mom, and PTA organizer on the outside, there’s nothing but hot, steamy, and raunchy fantasies brewing right beneath the surface!

Tired of keeping them hidden inside or only having them come out in the bedroom, they’re all here in the form of some wickedly hot stories. Single-minded alpha heroes, sinfully taboo relationships, and wildly over-the-top scenarios. If you love it extra dirty, extra hot, and extra naughty, this is the place for you!

(Just don’t tell the other PTA members you saw her here…)

Madison’s books have also been featured on MTV.com, VICE.com, and (probably) numerous anti-smut government and concerned citizens watch-lists.
