Fortune may favor the bold, but lately, it hasn’t favored Bree Faust.

Raised in the neon-lit embrace of Fortuna Casino & Resort, Bree is a twenty-two-year-old with more than a smattering of freckles and a sense of loyalty that runs deep. When change is thrust upon her again, she finds herself at a major crossroads and is torn between embracing her legacy as Lady Luck or drawing a card for a new life filled with unknowns.

Enter Vinh Lott, a twenty-nine-year-old with a fierce protective streak and a heart scarred by fire. A reserved software engineer moonlighting at his parents’ new restaurant, Vinh is the steady rock Bree never knew she needed. When fate brings them together in the chaos of the casino, Bree faces the biggest gamble of her life—trusting Vinh to be both her anchor and safe harbor in the greatest storm she has ever faced.

As obstacles loom, from Bree’s demanding grandmother, the return of an antagonistic former friend, and the temporary nature of Vinh’s stay on the coast, their love story unfolds against the glittering backdrop of a casino resort. Will Bree and Vinh beat the odds, or will they lose it all in the grand game of love?

AUTHOR BIO

Lane O’Neil is a former enneagram Type 2 and current enneagram Type 9 (Cancer sign, if you must know) who loves change. You can just ask her husband—who is asked to rearrange their living room furniture every seven business weeks—to verify that statement.

Born, raised, and forever resident of Atlanta-ish, Georgia, she loves egg rolls, blankies, and her four dogs—a feisty mutt and three pitties, or “senior pitizens.”

Lane rekindled her love of reading during the tumultuous, emotional trench warfare time of her life known as the postpartum period after she had her first and only son in 2021.

That renewed spark led her to link up with indie authors as an alpha and beta reader, which eventually led to a crazy idea—one that had never once crossed her mind before.

What if she tried to write something?

Once her mortifying flashback to completing the writing portion of her SATs in 2009 was done and she took a shower to wash off the nervous sweats, she opened a document and began writing.

Sandra:

I'm a girl who doesn't need a man. I've tried, but love isn't in the cards for me. Until one night, one fateful evening—I fell and fell quick. The love that consumes me for Dominic Torano is epic, one of storybook fairy tales. That is until he asks for the one thing I'm unwilling to give him. It had been a decision I'd made, well before we’d met, and as much as I want, I can’t change, even if it is for the man I love with my whole heart.

Dominic:

I'm just a guy in love with a woman who evokes a sense of serenity in my life. It's a beautiful love story, mine and hers. Until she tells me she won't give me the one thing I've dreamt of my entire life—my own family. Do I walk away, stating we're not compatible, or do I choose a woman over my future children, children I've yet to meet?

EXCERPT

My sister swore a weekend at the lake would be fun, and as the bare-assed man I met last night slides out of my bed, I'd say she was right.

It should be awkward, right? I know his name. I know he's the brother of Daimen Torano, who is Chicago royalty. He's hot and likes to tell me what to do in the bedroom. It's all I know about him, but what more do I really need? When was the last time I had sex before last night? And how many orgasms did I have?

He looks back at me, sliding his jeans up and hiding the excellent view. "I had fun. Same time, same place tonight, Rosso?" It's what he's called me since we crossed paths last night. After all, he’s obsessed with my flaming red locks.

This is insane. I love sex, and I'm not a prude, but meeting a man a decade younger than me, only to repeat it tonight—I may be almost forty, but I'm not dead. Nor am I stupid.

"Sounds like a plan," I answer, and he slips out of the room.

And it was the plan, but in the typical way my life seems to work, nothing goes according to plan, leaving a second night with Dominic Torano to my imagination.

Relentless Pursuit by Isabella Alexander

 

Title: Relentless Pursuit

Duet: Boneless Redemption #2

Author: Isabella Alexander

Genre: Dark Mafia Romance

Tropes: Forbidden/Age Gap Romance

Release Date: March 14, 2024

BLURB

Dominic Lucas:

I left her with no explanation, a calculated, cold dismissal meant to protect the one flicker of light in my world of shadows. My empire demanded brutality, a ceaseless cycle of violence and retribution. Yet every neck snapped in the night, and every deal struck in hushed tones became a haunting refrain whispering her name—Penelope. My self-imposed exile from her deepened the gnawing void within me until my peace hinged on stolen glances across crowded rooms and illicit moments tracking her from the periphery. She was my sanctuary, a dangerous paradox I could neither possess nor forget. I was on the edge of oblivion, and thoughts of her were the only tether to sanity I had left.

Penelope Cattaneo:

He banished me from his life like a phantom, staining the hopes and dreams I longed for with him. He thought his darkness could consume my light as if I were a moth carelessly spiraling into the flame. But what Dominic didn't understand was I already knew the contours of his shadow; I had touched it, tasted it, and still wanted more. He was my dark fairytale, the enigma that held me captive even as he pushed me away. I saw him sometimes, lurking at the edge of my world—close enough to haunt me, possessive enough to touch. My heart yearned for him even as it bled because the cruel irony was even in his absence, Dominic Lucas remained my only refuge in a world I wanted no part of without him.

AUTHOR BIO

As an author residing in the South, I have a penchant for weaving tales that delve into the shadows of romance, exploring the seductive allure of forbidden desires.

Within the pages of my novels, passion intertwines with darkness, igniting a flame that burns fiercely and unpredictably. Love takes on an enigmatic and twisted form. It's a dance between light and dark, where the heart races, and the boundaries of desire are pushed to their limits.

When I'm not immersed in crafting these tantalizing stories, you can find me curled up with a bowl of popcorn, engrossed in science fiction movies. Space has captivated my imagination since childhood with all its mysteries and infinite possibilities. It fuels my creativity and often finds its way into my prose, lending an otherworldly essence to my writing.

I invite you to explore the depths of my dark romance. I have a free prelude available for your reading pleasure, a glimpse into the seductive and thrilling journey that awaits within my books.

AUTHOR BIO

A.K. Evans is a contemporary romance author of over forty published novels.

That might have something to do with the fact that she, along with her husband and two sons, can’t get enough of extreme sports. 

Before becoming a writer, Andrea did a brief stint in the insurance and financial services industry and managed her husband’s performance automotive business. That love of extreme sports? She used to drive race cars! 

When Andrea isn’t writing, she can be found homeschooling her two sons, doing yoga, snowboarding, reading, or traveling with her family. She and her husband are currently taking road trips throughout the country to visit all 50 states with their boys.
