September is a month full of great new reads and I don't know how I am going to keep up!
Here's my list of my most anticipated books for this month, in order of publication date :)
Title: Most Valuable Playboy
Author: Lauren Blakely
Publication Date: September 1
Hands down, my favorite thing in the world is to score. Touchdowns.
Don't
let the fact that I'm the leading pick in the Most Valuable Playboy
charity auction fool you. These days, I'm only a player on the field.
I've kept my pants zipped all season long -- and it has been long --
because nothing's more important than leading my team to victory every
week. Except maybe escaping from the team owner's recently-widowed and
handsy-as-hell sister who's dead set on winning more than a date with
me.
Enter Violet and a well-placed Hail Mary.
She's
my best friend's sister with a smile as sweet as cherry pie and a mind
that runs quicker than the 40-yard-dash. After Violet saves the day with
the highest bid, I don't even give her a two-minute warning before I
kiss her in front of the whole crowd and then announce that she's my
girlfriend. Which would be fine except my agent tells me we've got to
keep up the act while he's negotiating my contract.
Violet takes one
for the team and pretends to be mine, but our boyfriend-girlfriend
scrimmage quickly turns into a full contact sport, and I want it to go
into overtime. The problem is -- I've been riding the bench for years.
How
can a guy like me, who finally has a chance to prove his worth on the
field, convince the girl she’s most valuable to his heart?
MOST VALUABLE PLAYBOY is a brand new standalone sports romance written in the guy’s POV!
Title: Drumline
Author: Stacy Kestwick
Publication Date: September 5
Traditions are important. Especially in the South.
College football. Rivalries. Tailgating. Halftime shows.
Some things just don’t change.
Until
Reese Holland shows up with her long legs and no-bullshit attitude to
audition for the prestigious all-male Rodner University snare line.
It
doesn’t matter how much hazing she has to endure from Laird Bronson,
with his narrowed green eyes and arrogant smirk. She wants that damn
spot, and she’s more than good enough to earn it.
She expects there to be tension. Even friction.
But not sparks hot enough to burn the entire campus down.
Title: If There's No Tomorrow
Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout
Publication Date: September 5
Lena Wise is always
looking forward to tomorrow, especially at the start of her senior year.
She's ready to pack in as much friend time as possible, to finish
college applications, and to maybe let her childhood best friend
Sebastian know how she really feels about him. For Lena, the upcoming
year is going to be epic--one of opportunities and chances.
Until one choice, one moment, destroys everything.
Now
Lena isn't looking forward to tomorrow. Not when friend time may never
be the same. Not when college applications feel all but impossible. Not
when Sebastian might never forgive her for what happened.
For what she let happen.
With
the guilt growing each day, Lena knows that her only hope is to move
on. But how can she move on when she and her friends' entire existences
have been redefined? How can she move on when tomorrow isn't even
guaranteed?
Title: We Own Tonight
Author: Corinne Michaels
Publication Date: September 7
From New York Times Bestseller, Corinne Michaels, comes a sexy new STANDALONE romance novel.
I’m
not a one-night stand kind of woman. I’m especially not the woman who
has a few drinks at a concert and ends up in bed with my childhood
celebrity crush, Eli Walsh.
However, that’s exactly where I find myself.
What’s
a girl to do after a drunken mistake? Run. I grab my clothes and get
away from the powerful, irresistible, and best-sex-of-my-life superstar
as fast as I can. His gorgeous green eyes, rock-hard body, and cocky
smile have no place in my world. My life is complicated enough.
Someone forgot to tell him that.
Eli
is relentless. Pushing his way into my heart, wearing me down, proving
he’s nothing like I assumed, and everything I need. But when my world
shatters to pieces, he holds the broken bits together. Unwillingly, I
fall desperately in love with him.
He made me think we’d have forever . . . I should’ve listened when he said we could only own tonight
Title: Forget Me Not
Author: Willow Winters
Publication Date: September 12
I fell in love with a boy a long time ago.
I
was only a small girl. Scared and frightened, I was taken from my home
and held against my will. His father hurt me, but he protected me and
kept me safe as best he could.
Until I left him.
I ran
the first chance I got and even though I knew he wasn’t behind me, I
didn’t stop. The branches lashed out at me, punishing me for leaving him
in the hands of a monster.
I’ve never felt such guilt in my life.
Although
I survived, the boy was never found. I prayed for him to be safe. I
dreamed he’d be alright and come back to me. Even as a young girl I knew
I loved him, but I betrayed him.
Twenty years later, all my wishes came true.
But
the boy came back a man. With a grip strong enough to keep me close and
a look in his eyes that warned me to never dare leave him again. I was
his to keep after all.
Twenty years after leaving one hell, I entered another. Our tale was only just getting started.
It’s dark and twisted.
But that doesn’t make it any less of what it is.
A love story. Our love story
Title: Dirty Little Secret
Author: Kendall Ryan
Publication Date: September 14
The start to a sexy new series from New York Times bestselling author, Kendall Ryan...
She’s
much too innocent for me, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting the
sweet, young librarian. I’m dominating and possessive, and my control
streak runs a mile wide.
The way she looks at me—like I’m one of
the heroes in the books she loves, like I’m broken, and she wants to be
the one to piece me back together—it only complicates things further.
I’m nobody’s hero.
But there’s no denying my tragic past reads
like one of her favorite literary classics. It’s raw. Visceral.
Captivating. And together, we’re a perfect mess.
How can I
resist when the sexual sparks zapping between us set me on fire? The
need to control, and claim her force my walls to come tumbling down, but
when she learns about my dirty little secret, will my world come
crashing down with it?
Title: Racer (REAL #7)
Author: Katy Evans
Publication Date: September 28
A bad boy with something to prove.
A woman with a mission.
The race of their lives.
The love of a lifetime.
I
don’t think his parents expected him to live up to his name—Racer
Tate—but once he felt the adrenaline rush behind the wheel, he was
addicted.
He's the fastest, fiercest driver around.
Scouting new talent brings me to his doorstep...
but his smile sends me to my knees.
The
sexy, mysterious Racer Tate is not the kind of man a girl like me falls
for. He's secretive, reckless, elusive. But his proximity pushes me
beyond reason, and his kiss....
This is our last chance to win,
and he is our only hope. I'm supposed to watch him—make sure he doesn't
get into trouble. But it's an impossible task. And now the one in heart
wrenching, toe-curling, soul-crushing trouble is me. Because when your
heart belongs to someone, their truths become your own, and their
secrets become your salvation...or your curse.
He says he wants me. He says I'm the One. But he also thinks he'll break my heart, one piece at a time until it's gone
