18 Monday Early Bird Book Releases – 10-20-2025


HAPPY MONDAY & HAPPY START OF A NEW WEEK!! Another fun list of early book releases including a new one by one of our original dark romance indie authors, Aleatha Romig!!!

Three things:

1.) My husband’s son was home for the weekend and we had a huge feast and celebration on Sunday. Celebrating seeing him again (he’s in the military and lives in a different state) and celebrating my husband’s birthday (a weekend late) and we had so much to eat!

2.) We had three cheese tortellini in pesto sauce & with shaved parmesan cheese and a Cesar salad (my specialty!! LOL!!). And we also had antipasto (from Mazzaro’s Italian Market) and macaroni and cheese (a new brand at Costco – we were so curious to try it), and smoked ribs and baked beans too. And we bought two amazing cakes (one is a cannoli cake!!!) also from a famous Italian Market near us called Mazzaro’s.

3.) I’ve got an extremely busy week at work coming up, so my reading will take a hit, but I’m almost done I Dreamt That You Loved Me: A Love Story and loving it!!!

Her real life? Completely ordinary. Until one unplanned trip to visit her estranged father in Iron Falls, Massachusetts, flips everything upside down. She wakes to a gunshot only to find her father’s body in a pool of blood on the first floor and flames engulfing the walls.

She barely escapes the burning house. Fleeing barefoot into the snow, Michelle becomes the only witness to a crime that no one in Iron Falls wants solved. Especially the sheriff. Hiding in the snowy pines as she watches her father’s home burn, Michelle doesn’t know what to do, until a mysterious man appears, offering to help her—to save her life...”

BIKER ROMANCE – THEY’RE BOTH TOUGH AS NAILS…

“…Astrid’s life has been somewhat nomadic for the past few years. She hadn’t been tempted to put down roots until she met Haven. Here was someone she could become friends with. But there’s more to her desire to stay than friendship. Along with Haven and the vibes of Bristol, there is one other major draw to settling there—the biker who goes by the road name Mayhem. 

Mayhem fascinates Astrid despite her attempts to remain aloof. And it’s more than his dangerous aura and the way they match wits that draws her like a moth to the flame. However, Astrid is haunted by her past. The one that ended her promising career and left her adrift. She has scars that will never fully fade. Lucky for her, Mayhem is a man who understands those…”

Determined to build her dream from the ground up, literally, she’s set on opening a café at her front gate, across the road from the sea. Her daughter is spreading her wings. Her parents are gone. And love? Not on the cards. Meg’s had her fill of people who leave.

The Surgeon by John Nicholl <— PSYCH-THRILLER!! “...When an eminent surgeon is arrested for murder, he knows he didn’t do it.

So, when the real perpetrator comes forward, and he is released, he feels vindicated. What nobody knows – not the officer who arrested him, nor the influencer who petitioned for his freedom, nor the girl who escaped a killer years before – is that while he was incarcerated, he was making a plan. Because revenge is sweet. But murder is sweeter…

He was a Silver Duke, magnificent and handsome, and desired by all women. How could she possibly be special to him?

And now he was offering his help in completing her impossibly dangerous assignment...”

But what I didn’t expect when I landed in Brooklyn? Jenna Miller. And the way she unceremoniously turned me down. I shouldn’t let her rejection weave it’s way under my skin, and I definitely shouldn’t have punched her brother when he tried to defend Jenna’s honor.

Instead, I should heed my mantra and walk away from the girl who hates my guts and grates on me with her bratty smile and backtalking mouth. If I don’t, I know someone will eventually get hurt...”
