But will a killer instinct be enough to survive the island?

Though there’s something unusual with her new home (her laptop won’t charge in any outlets, and the poetry magnets on her fridge definitely didn’t read “WRONG” and “MY HOUSE” when she put them up), she’s charmed by the colorful history surrounding her. And she’s catching a certain vibe from the grumpy coffee shop owner whenever he slips her a free slice of banana bread along with her coffee order. As Nick takes her on a ghost tour, sharing town gossip that tourists don’t get to hear, and they spend nights side-by-side looking into the former owners of her haunted cottage, their connection solidifies into something very real and enticing. But Cassie’s worried she’s in too deep with this whole (haunted) home ownership thing…and Nick’s afraid to get too close in case Cassie gets scared away for good.

I know I somehow have to break the curse that binds the real Princess Aveline—both for her sake and my own. But I might break my heart in the process.

TAMED FOR HER PLEASURE (COVETED PREY BOOK 23) by L V Lane
When the king of a barbarian horde turns out to be unexpectedly hot…All I wanted to do was stop a war. A sensible princess would have talked to her father and beseeched him to see sense. Instead, I do what I absolutely should not do: take my horse and leave the safety of my castle to parley with the enemy myself. Only the barbarian horde waiting to besiege our home turns out to be larger than I expect… and deeply unhappy when I incapacitate half a dozen of their best men. They take me to the king in charge… which is where my plans come undone. Instead of declaring my intentions to help free their brethren from my father’s dungeon, I throw a challenge at their king’s feet. Why? Because if there were degrees of alphaness, the seven-foot-tall barbarian with a stern glint in his eyes and an air of deadly grace would be at the top. When he makes an allusion toward taming me, well, it’s a challenge I can’t possibly resist. I want him to try. I might secretly want him to succeed. Just a little taste of the forbidden. Just one touch. An experience I can take away lest I wonder for the rest of my life what it might have been like. Only barbarians play by their own rules. I am tossed over his broad shoulder, taken to his tent, and subsequently liberated of all my daggers… even the hidden ones that no one finds. There are very few occasions in my life when I feel like I might have bitten off more than I can chew, but as I am dropped, weaponless, to his fur bed, I believe this is one. AmazonKU

THISTLE THORNS: HOMESTEADER HEART WITCH BOOK SIX by Kat Healy
This is the worst family reunion. Of all time. The Hawthorne coven is in Redbud, and they’re not leaving until my brother is ransomed from the Unseelie Court. Normally this would be a good thing, but…They hate my boyfriend, if I can even call the lumberjack shifter that, considering we haven’t even said the L word yet. They distrust my friends, especially the Fair Folk kind, for long-held prejudices don’t die easily. They think quaint little ol’ Redbud is a backwater hole, despite its small-town charms. They’re convinced I’ve activated a prophecy that portends a major shift in the magical forces between realms and want to lock me up like a princess in a tower. Oh, and they’re set on unaliving or collaring my cat, because, as they say, a cat is rarely a cat in the supernatural world, and they’re taking no chances. As you can imagine, you need battle leathers on when you sit down to family dinner. AmazonKU

LINKS TO RECENT NEW RELEASES POSTS from Veronica:
“New” is generally plus or minus a week or two. I try to catch up on ones I missed in recent months. And I may mention ‘special items’.
NOTE: I’m doing my best to avoid listing anything generated from use of AI but it’s sometimes tricky to detect from the resources I have available. As far as covers go, I list the Amazon cover. I won’t feature a cover in my weekly promo for this post if I believe or suspect it was done with AI and I use the AI or Not tool to decide.
I do NOT cover every single new release in SFR/FantasyR/PNR. I never have. That would be an impossible task for any human! I assemble my list by hand every week based on various informal inputs, and I do curate the list to some extent…
Some authors aren’t in KU but still don’t list books with Apple or other platforms. This report is very time consuming to prepare so I’ve always had to limit myself and cannot go and look up every book on all the platforms. If an author gives me their other buy links, I include them here but generally I develop the post on my own, not from author-supplied information. I curate and prepare this post individually every week to help connect readers/books/authors and I have to be very careful not to give it so much time as an activity that I don’t write my own novels! Thanks for the feedback and happy reading!
