Do you all remember in 2022 when a group of strangers rented a car in Florida because all the flights were cancelled? This book is that same situation - but with twists and thrills!
Mira is trying to get home from California to Pennsylvania on Christmas Eve but due to a blizzard her connecting flight is canceled. Harper, a girl from the flight, rents a car and asks if she would like to join her - along with Brecken, Josh, and Kayla - all strangers. Things start out okay, but as they set off, Mira realizes every one of them is hiding something, things start mysteriously disappearing, and someone may even be sabotaging the trip―but why? And can Mira make it home alive?

Who doesn't love a cute little winter romance with some steamy scenes?
Melody Gallard and Beat Dawkins are both children of the legendary rock duo - Steel Birds. But before they were born, their mothers had the ultimate fall out and the pair barely know each other. A producer has contacted them both to see if they can reunite the legends, and due to Beat's unfortunate secret and Melody's strained relationship with her mother, they both could use the money the show may bring. This book has all the best tropes: forced proximity, only one bed, friends-to-lovers as well as 3 Santas, a snowball fight, and two middle-aged rockstars (one who is now a socialite and the other who is hippie cult leader). We loved #Magnificient Mel, #Belady and the whole gang!

What was probably THE most anticipated release of November 2023 is out and we gave everyone a few weeks to read it before we dive right in!
Iron Flame is the second installment in Rebecca's Empyrean series and was another 5/5 for both Dominyse and Keeley.

Adalyn Reyes is the daughter of the owner of the Miami Flames soccer team and she recently went viral knocking the head off her mascot mid game. She is sent to Green Oaks North Carolina for a mystery mission while her dad deals with the repercussions of her fame. Cameron Caldoni is an abruptly retired soccer who is hiding out in Green Oaks for an unknown reason. While Adalyn thinks she has booked the same house that Cameron is currently renting, she actually rented the run down cabin located on the same property and finds herself in charge of the youth soccer team he is coaching for the town Mayor/barista/Bartender Josie. This is a grumpy meets grumpy, enemy to loves, forced proximity love story. Cameron is dealing with a traumatic event in his past that made him run and Adalyn has always been seen as a frigid ice queen who’s only life goal was pleasing her never pleased father and taking over the Miami Flames one day. They help each other come to terms with their buried turmoil.

One review of this book states "This isn't a book, it's a visceral experience."—B.B. Easton, bestselling author.
Verity follows the story of Lowen, a poor struggling author who is granted the opportunity to take over a publishing deal of a very popular author Verity due to medical issues, and finds herself living in the home of Verity and her husband, Jeremy. What Dominyse foolishly anticipated being a romance LOL is actually a love story tainted in darkness, mystery, and several jump scare. WARNING: This book contains explicit sexual content, profanity, and topics that may be sensitive to some readers regarding alleged abuse of children and is recommended for those 18+. As always, we do a quick spoiler-free summary but this episode will contain SPOILERS!
