</div><div><b>Blurb: </b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The Elite Kings Club left a trail of fear behind every person who whispered their names throughout the centuries that they’d existed. They were the product of every nightmare you were told as a child, only now, they don’t go bump in the night. They race modified cars, throw parties to conceal their morbid games, and leave behind the kind of chaos that can never be tamed.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">They were from an ancient bloodline of the three Founding Fathers, and it was almost time for them to plunge deeper into the depths of hell. Now that they were all on their motherland, and even closer to an island with history as dark as it was ruthless, no one had a say in the carnage of what was to come. And in this case, with War and Halen. Until now, they were nothing but exactly as they appeared on the outside.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He was a brother’s best friend, and a boy Halen had never not known.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She was the daughter of one of the most feared families known to man, and the only girl who ever kindled his rage. They’d push and pull until it tore them apart…if only to feel the shell of their bodies close.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Halen knew crossing that line with him was dangerous ground, yet she yielded her weapon and did it anyway. But history was being challenged, and The Kings were about to learn that not all enemies are discovered on a battlefield.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Some are the ghosts of what was left behind.</span> </div><div><br /></div><div>

Between the countless dates, the ghosting, love-bombing, lies, catfishing, and gaslighting, the world of dating had become nothing but a cruel joke at this point. I'd given up all hope. Then my best friend, Destiny, gifted me a reading from her favorite psychic, Mindy. I thought she was batshit crazy. She raved about how Mindy connected her to her now fiancé, Stephen, and although they had the ideal loving relationship, it did not seem like it would be in the cards for me. Singledom was my comfort zone, and it was the only place that made sense for the past five years.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">After an eye-opening experience with Mindy, I decided to take her advice and write out my ultimate soulmate list. What else did I have to lose? All I needed to do was write down a detailed list of everything I wanted in a partner and pop it underneath my pillow with some healing stones.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">Months later, after my life had been uprooted, I'd forgotten about everything until I ran into him inside of our apartment complex. Something felt so mysterious about him, and usually my intuition wasn't wrong, but maybe manifesting someone like him would be oh so Wright.</span></p><p><b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001;

But single mom Jade Mackenzie is up to the challenge of winning over the town if that's what it takes to make her new shop a success. After all, this is just the latest in a long string of battles she's had to face. Since she's given up on men-all of them except for her son-she can throw all her energy into the new business. Or so she thought until the most charming and too-good-looking-for-his-own-good man walked into her shop. And she literally falls into his arms.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">Levi Donovan knows how to charm his way through life; winning people over is just what he does. But no amount of charm can save him when he's at the center of a scandal that costs him his position at a prestigious ad agency. With no other choice, he's forced to return home to Sweetbriar Ridge, the small town he left behind the first chance he got. When he meets the owner of the new coffeehouse, he starts to think that small towns aren't so bad. And when he finds out Jade needs a little help promoting her new business, Levi makes it his mission to help her make the shop a success. That's just what a good friend does.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">No matter how hard she tries to resist, Jade can't help but be swept away by Levi's good looks and the sweet way he interacts with her son. But Levi isn't staying, and getting attached would be a mistake. Levi always swore he would never settle in Sweetbriar Ridge, but could loving Jade be reason enough to stay?</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif;

That's her sisters' job. Tasha's support role is all about keeping them alive, playing referee when they fight amongst themselves, and soothing the toughest boss in the world. Working for the CIA isn't as glamorous as she imagined, and she's more than a little lonely. So when she meets a charming man in a bar the night before they start their latest op, she decides to give in to temptation. The night was perfect until she discovers she's just slept with the target of their new investigation. Her sisters will never let her hear the end of this. Even worse, she has to explain the situation to her overprotective father, who also happens to be their boss.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">Dare Nash knew exactly how his week in Sydney was going to go—attending boring conferences to represent his family’s business interests and eating hotel food alone. Until he falls under the spell of a stunning and mysterious American woman. Something in Tasha’s eyes raises his body temperature every time she looks at him. She’s captivating, and he’s committed to spending every minute he can with her on this trip, even if her two friends seem awfully intense. He doesn’t trust easily, but it’s not long before he can imagine spending the rest of his life with her.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: pre;">When Dare discovers Tash isn't who she seems, the dream turns into a nightmare. She isn't the only one who deceived him, and now he's in the crosshairs of adversaries way out of his league. He can't trust her, but it might take Tasha and her family to save his life and uncover the truth.</span></p><p><b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001;

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><b>BLURB:</b></h3>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Some describe me as a quirky, free-spirited journalist who charges her crystals by moonlight.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">They’re not wrong.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">My instincts ensure I know everything that goes on in my small town. And not much surprises me. But when the man who destroyed my heart returns to care for his family’s business, I’m shaken to the core.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">After our messy breakup, Hayden Shaw swore he’d never come back to Valentine, Texas.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Years later, I’m still trying to forget we ever existed.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Damn near impossible when he’s now everywhere.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">A constant reminder of what could have been.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Rumors swirl about his true intentions, but a little gossip has never bothered me.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, if winning over my heart is his end game, he can hang up his spurs because I won’t make the same mistake twice—or will I?</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Spill the Sweet Tea is a second chance, brother’s best friend, hate to love you, grumpy/sunshine contemporary small-town southern romance with rom-com vibes and a happily ever after. Each book in the Valentine Texas series is a stand-alone. Warning: this romance book contains tons of southern sass, lots of woo-woo, and small-town gossip! Fade to black and cheating are not included.</span>

<b>BLURB:</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">WARNING: DO NOT READ THE BLURB FOR THIS BOOK.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s better if you go in BLIND, trust me…</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">But if you *have* to know what you're getting yourself into, you can read the synopsis below.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She lied to me.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Not once, not twice.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This entire time.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">To her, I was the "cliche Mr. Popular," the star quarterback who owned Friday nights.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">To me, she was the goth geek in the bleachers, playing clarinet in the band.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite our differences, I climbed through her window every night.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Even when we started college.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She was the only person who truly understood me, and I couldn't stay away from her if I tried.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Our connection was hot and toxic, but we never dared to put out the flames.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We fell too hard, too fast…</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">And this wouldn’t have been a problem except for the fact that I was already dating someone else.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Her sister.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">**See? That’s why you shouldn’t have read this blurb and went in blind. Alas, this is an emotional ride of a romance with toxic undertones that will drive you to some unexpected places. The author just felt like writing this story one day, so don't say you weren't warned about what you were getting into.**</span>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><b>Blurb:</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One night. One decision. That was all it took.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m certain my life has reached a new low when I decide to put myself up for auction at a charity event. Except letting billionaire men bet on me is nothing compared to what happens afterward.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I saw something I wasn’t supposed to and now people want me dead. Dangerous men I didn’t even know existed in our city. Lucky for me, the man who had the winning bet for a date with me is equally as menacing.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Or maybe not so lucky.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m stuck in the middle of a mafia war that I want no part of. Escaping only leads me closer to death and the man keeping me safe—Luca Monroe—he just might be the worst human being on Earth.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Except for the moments when he promises to keep me safe.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">As tensions erupt between us, I begin to see him as something other than the monster I met in that alleyway. A decision I’m sure to regret. That is if I can survive long enough to do so, but with a price on my head…</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The odds aren’t in my favor.</span></div><div><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></div><div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><b>Blurb:</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I swear I’m a good girl.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I didn’t go to the exclusive, after-hours masquerade to kiss my dad’s best friend. I didn’t even know who the masked man was when he touched me like I was his every fantasy.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">But when I learn exactly how off-limits my new lover is, I do my best to avoid him the next time. Except, he has his sinful sights set on me, even when he discovers who I am. Just one time, he whispers. Then we’ll pretend this never happened.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Seems the enigmatic, gorgeous single dad I’ve known by day is a very dirty man after dark.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">But one night turns into a stolen weekend, giving me a taste of so much more. When it ends, we vow to stay apart.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We could never work.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He’s focused on raising his young son, and I can’t let my already damaged family break more. But the caring, possessive man keeps coming back to me, and these secret nights tangled up together are turning into tender moments that make my heart thunder.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">And soon, this tease of a forbidden romance is making me want so much more than I can ever have…</span>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><b>Blurb</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I might be a cowboy, but I’m no gentleman.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Ten years ago I crossed the line with my younger brother’s best friend. I knew she was in love with me, and I couldn’t resist her. River Adams gave me her innocence on her eighteenth birthday. I broke her in return and made her hate me. I thought walking away from her would be easy, but I never expected to come face to face with everything I gave up. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Thanks to a stipulation in my dad’s will, she’s back and we have to live together. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Me.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Her.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">My brother Walker, who has carried a torch for her since they were kids.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">And, how could I forget, Bishop? The ranch hand who can’t keep his eyes off her.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The years between us may not matter anymore, but the secrets and lies always will. My family has blood on its hands, no one more so than me. If she finds out the truth about Twisted Cross Ranch she’ll never forgive me. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I was born to be the villain, but when she looks at me, I wish I could be her hero.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">For fans of Yellowstone, USA Today Bestselling Authors K. Loraine & Meg Anne bring you a new dark cowboy mafia why-choose series. Red-hot, gritty, suspenseful, and loaded with angst, Twisted Cross Ranch is the escape you didn’t know you needed. Hang on tight, darlin’, these ain’t your mama’s cowboys.</span>

<div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>Meg Anne</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">USA Today and International bestselling paranormal and fantasy romance author Meg Anne has always had stories running on a loop in her head. They started off as daydreams about how the evil queen (aka Mom) had her slaving away doing chores, and more recently shifted into creating backgrounds about the people stuck beside her during rush hour. The stories have always been there; they were just waiting for her to tell them.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Like any true SoCal native, Meg enjoys staying inside curled up with a good book and her cat, Henry...or maybe that's just her... You can convince her to buy just about anything if it's covered in glitter or rhinestones, or make her laugh by sharing your favorite bad joke. She also accepts bribes in the form of baked goods and Mexican food.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Meg is best known for her leading men #MenbyMeg, her inevitable cliffhangers, and making her readers laugh out loud, which all started with the bestselling Chosen series.</span>
