The Second Chance Summer

by Rose Graceling-Moore

Tropes: steamycontemporary, enemiestolovers, grumpysunshine

Anabel Newsome spent ten years on her dream career. It took one email to destroy it, and now she is willing to do anything to get it back. Even work with Luca, the grumpy-but-gorgeous painter who broke her heart ten years ago. The plan is simple: Agree to a three-month leave of absence for the “burnout” she swears she doesn’t have. Return to the sunshine-soaked coast of Italy, find her supposed bliss, and convince her boss she’s ready to come back to work. What isn’t in the plan is discovering that the hostel she loved in her twenties is falling apart. Maybe it’s because that’s something she and the building have in common, or maybe it’s just because she’s incapable of taking a break, but Ana is determined to save it. And Luca, as the hostel handyman, is going to help. Whether he likes it or not! Between renovations that go sideways, a new summer fling that complicates things, and a decade-old wound she never quite let heal, Ana’s carefully planned trip is quickly going off the rails. But the beach vacation she never wanted might just be her second chance to make the right choice. [Read More]

The Roman Prince of Chaos: A Spicy Slow-Burn Italian Football Romance

by Mara J. Ova

Tropes: slowburn, firstperson, multipov

He’s every woman’s dream. I’m just scared of what happens when I wake up. Alessandro Moretti is the most dangerous striker in Italy, a Golden Ball winner, and the Sexiest Man Alive. Watching him on screen has been my guilty pleasure for more than ten years. Then he became the face of my Baroque restoration campaign, said some stupid things about Baroque that I couldn’t let stand, and I corrected him. In front of a hundred people. It became a meme on Instagram. Now he wants me to teach him history—officially, so he doesn’t make an idiot of himself again. But I know why he suddenly pretends to admire Roman architecture. He wants me. On the pitch, Alessandro is hungry, aggressive, and used to taking what he wants. Off it, he’s a master seducer who knows exactly how to make a woman feel like she’s the only person in the room. But I mean to resist him, no matter how my pulse quickens when I feel his warmth. Because Alessandro Moretti loves the chase, and I refuse to become just another conquest. Except he says this isn’t about conquering me. He says he wants me. All of me. And he wants to make me happy. How am I supposed to believe that a man who has had a roster of supermodels on his arm could truly want a curvy scholar with limited time in Rome? And even if he does, the whole world will be watching, ready to decide whether I’m worthy of him. I’ve spent years building my professional reputation. I will not risk it for one charming, adorable footballer. Even if the most wanted man in Italy seems determined to prove that, for once, he isn’t playing to win. He’s playing for keeps. The Roman Prince of Chaos is a slow-burn, spicy sports romance packed with hilarious banter, irresistible pursuit, and electric chemistry, all against the beauty and chaos of Rome. Because Rome has been messing with young lovers since the beginning of time. Take a look inside and discover what happens when a legendary striker finally meets the one woman he can’t simply win.
