Get ready to laugh out loud, swoon, and fall in love with this new, fun, and sexy stand-alone novel from New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig. Demonstrating her versatility in writing, Aleatha revisits her lighter side that you loved in PLUS ONE.

A complete stand-alone, ANOTHER ONE is the next big summer hit.

*Shana*

Trevor Willis is sexy, sweet, and oh so fun. He’s also my best friend’s brother-in-law. That should mean he’s off-limits, or that I should be off-limits to him.

Someone probably should have told us that before my best friend married his brother, before the morning of the wedding when we woke in each other’s arms with gaping holes in my memory.

They didn’t.

We did.

The hilarious truth behind our crazy, secret adventure secured this handsome, off-limits man in my heart. But alas, life goes on. After our one secret night, we went back to our lives—our hardworking, solitary lives.

And then it happened.

My phone began to buzz. Each night with thousands of miles between us, we laughed, talked, and shared. And then, the phone stopped ringing.

Before it did, I knew one thing…

Our secret one had bloomed and blossomed, and now that our circumstances have changed I want another one!

*Trevor*

Shana Price is that one woman. You know, the one who suddenly makes the world more than a place to work, but also a place to live. Usually shy and awkward, in her presence I want to be more—I am more. I don’t even have to try.

She’s my one. I knew it the moment I first met her. What followed simply confirmed it.

The problem is the little hassle of the thousands of miles between us.

I tried to make it work, but each phone call made it harder. (Yes, that is a pun) I couldn’t take it any more—and she became the one who got away.

Now, everything has changed.

Shana is back in the United States—all I have to do is make her see that her job isn’t the only reason to stay.

That shouldn’t be a problem, right?

From a secret one to another one!

Try Aleatha’s lighter side for a guaranteed smile—the perfect getaway.

Have you been Aleatha’d?

Excerpt

Trevor~

Sweet and tangy.

Shana Price tastes like sugar with a twist of lemon.

My mind tells me to go slow, reminding me that I don’t have any right to this beautiful woman. My mind is saying to stop, yet her soft moan is all I hear.

My body has its own GPS with the destination close. Listening to my mind is out of the question.

Her petite body shivers as I tease her sweet lips. They willingly part as my tongue delves inside, wrestling with hers.

Not giving up its fight, my thoughts remind me how forward this behavior is and how it isn’t like me. Trevor Willis is not a man who chases a woman down, pins her against the wall, and kisses her until neither of us can breathe or cares.

It’s not me.

But, it should be.

I like it.

I won’t blame the alcohol. I’ll blame my need to know it’s really Shana and to claim her for my own. I didn’t do it last time, and I’ve regretted it every day since.

When her hands come to my chest, I seize them, lifting them above her head and pinning them to the wall. Shana doesn’t fight; instead, her hips move against mine and our kiss grows more passionate. In the dark, crowded hallway, with my body pressed against hers, I swallow the soft moans coming from her throat.

At that moment, I want to be anywhere but a crowded bar in the middle of Manhattan. I no longer care about Eric’s bachelor party or my friends. I don’t even care about Kimbra back out in the bar. All I want is to whisk Shana away and do what we didn’t do before, what her body and mine are ready and aching to do.

Sean Phillips is a sexy as sin enigma.
Cocky. Promiscuous.
The New York Mavericks star wide receiver.

His quick moves and sure hands extend way past the lines of the football field—and into the bedroom.

Sure of himself and sure of his life, Sean’s convinced he can handle anything. But when beautiful, pint-sized Six Malone delivers a challenge he’s never faced before, his certainty starts to waver.

**

Six Malone is a force to be reckoned with.
Feisty. Hilarious.
The popular YouCam vlogger Pick Six.

The chance to work with the Mavericks on an eight-episode vlog series is the opportunity of a lifetime, and Six knows it.
But after an interesting first encounter turns into a head-to-head battle with cocky football star Sean Phillips, her attention shifts—to keeping herself from falling in love.

Too bad spending time with the team is part of the job, and Sean has a flawless track record…of getting what he wants.

**

Pick Six: A term used when a quarterback throws an interception and a defensive player returns it for a touchdown, resulting in six points.

Review

I might just have a new Max Monroe favorite heroine after reading their newest release, Pick Six.

There’s just something about Six Malone that resonated with me throughout the entirety of her and Sean’s book. It might be the fact that she doesn’t back down or mince words, even when it comes to a certain manwhore Maverick who just so happens to be her favorite NFL wide receiver. Or, it could be her independence, her feisty attitude, and the powerful woman she is within her pint-sized frame. Whatever it is, I am beyond smitten with this talented and creative vlogger, and I couldn’t wait to see her put Sean Phillips in his place, giving him a taste of his own medicine and challenging his self-perception when it comes to the ease with which he gets or takes whatever he wants. 

Six is definitely a woman I would adore hanging out with because she’s genuine and caring, and even though she cusses like a sailor, which only makes me love her more,  she doesn’t do it to be offensive; she does it because that’s who she is and it’s that playfulness…that outspokenness that not only tantalizes a certain NFL star but also keeps him coming back for more…despite his assertion that he can’t cope with any distractions during the season.

I can’t deny that Sean Phillips absolutely backs up his arrogance, both on and off the field. He most definitely has a magnetic personality – one that proves that he has every right to be the self-assured and larger-than-life athlete he is. But taking Sean down a few pegs wouldn’t hurt either, and I think that Six is the perfect girl for the job because she won’t stroke his ego, even if she wants to desperately stroke Sean’s ‘peen-asurus-rex’ that she just happened to see close up before she even met the egoistical man himself.   

Pick Six is one hilarious romantic comedy. The relationships that Max Monroe creates between Sean, Quinn, and the other New York Mavericks illustrate the close bond created when a group of men work together for a common goal. And, the way the players allow Six into their inner circle and treat her as an honorary member of the team, giving her exclusive behind the scenes access and helping Six’s video blogger career gain even more notoriety and popularity is a testament to who she is and just how comfortable she is around these sexy AF football players.

I can’t get enough of Max Monroe’s heroes and heroines. They’re funnier than hell with fantastic personalities and the witty exchanges and sexual innuendoes make me blush and laugh out loud on a regular basis.

I’m completely intrigued by Cam, so I’m excited that his story is up next, and hopefully, readers will get to catch up with previous couples because my girl crush on Six Malone is still holding strong even after I finished the book.

Blurb

Tyler Cree has never been good at the whole look and don’t touch thing.

From the moment he was old enough to walk on his own two feet, he’s been looking for trouble.

Trouble comes in many forms…quite a few of those forms being the female persuasion.

Tyler knows what girls want—a bad boy. And he has the bad boy image down pat.

Ex-military—check.

Hot cop—double check.

A bike between his legs and a devil may care attitude—oh, yeah.

All the girls want him, yet none of them will have him—at least not all of him, anyway. A certain appendage they can have all they want. His heart, however, is not up for grabs. The useless organ inside his chest was broken and battered, mutilated by the one woman he thought would keep it safe.

Spoiler alert: she ripped it to shreds and set fire to the pieces.

To protect himself, Tyler keeps everyone at arm’s length, and never lets anyone get too close.

Then Reagan Rose Alvarez barrels into his life, and trespasses on not only his property, butstraight into his abused heart. One glance is all it takes, and he’s suddenly thinking about things he hasn’t thought for quite some time—thoughts that a man like him should never have about a woman like her.

One moment of weakness is all it takes, and suddenly he has no other choice but to go on the offensive.

Keeping her is the only other option now.

Turns out, his heart isn’t as broken as he thought it was.

The only problem is, now the little she-devil holds it in the palm of her hands, and she has no clue just how much power she holds.

Review

When a Hawks’ brother makes up his mind and claims a woman, there’s no going back, so try as Poppy might to remain hurt and angry about what went down between her and Jeremiah when he unknowingly broke her heart and put her in the position to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, unequivocally altering what they had hoped was a future together, Poppy can’t resist the pull she still feels to the man who has always owned her body and soul, and now that Jeremiah has his Poppy back in his life, he’s not wasting anymore time, claiming her as his regardless if she likes it or not.

Poppy and Jeremiah share a complicated past, and Lila Rose does a good job of illustrating the present and Jeremiah’s quest to get the girl that should have been his from the very beginning and transitioning to the key moments in their past that sent them in opposite directions, leaving them with only half of their heart.

I love that Rose brought two motorcycle clubs together since they’re both a part of the hero and heroine’s lives. The Hawks MC and the Venom MC might not be rivals exactly, but there’s still a certain need to retain power and control over their respective territories and their members, so having two clubs in rather close proximity as well old members patching in to the other club can make for some unfriendly encounters. But, because Poppy’s dad, Charlie, is a member of Venom and Jeremiah once was a Venom brother and now wears a Hawks cut and both clubs are trying to be on the straight and narrow for the most part, there isn’t that much bad blood between them, and it’s that camaraderie, in the end, that helps Poppy to fix her troubles and it’s also the people at Poppy and Jeremiah’s back that want these two to have a future together – the one they should have had before mistakes were made and lives were altered. 

Jeremiah is an alpha male to the core, which is exactly the kind of man that Poppy needs. He’s always seen her as his future, and even though he fought it and his mouth ruined their first opportunity, this time around, he’s not backing down and he’s not allowing her to freeze him out, which means that the cat and mouse game she’s been playing with him is not going to work, and I loved watching Jeremiah claim Poppy in every possible way…it wasn’t rushed, but he also refused to give her anymore space than what she finagled on her own, so as their story progressed, readers got to see one hot alpha male get his girl.

I’ll admit that Poppy’s rationalizations frustrated me, at times. I get that it’s easy to let one’s heart and emotions dictate actions, and I can also kind of see why she would want to fix her troubles so they don’t cause anyone else any damage. But she has all of these kickass bikers at her back – ones who would gladly lay down their lives for her, and even though that’s exactly what she’s trying to prevent, she definitely couldn’t handle things on her own, so I’m glad she finally sees the light and little by little lets others help her with situations that were never her fault.

I really enjoyed Fallout, which is not surprising because I love everything that Lila Rose writes, especially her bikers, and I am more than intrigued by the trio who are headed our way in her next biker book!

Blurb

One punch took him from Hollywood’s Golden Boy to Bad Boy Brody.

The media didn’t care he was grieving his brother’s death. They descended on him, but to change his reputation, his manager got him a deal. Act in an indie film, one that already had Oscar buzz, and he’d get the movie roles he needed to secure his future.

He took the deal.

Yet he wasn’t prepared for the real-life people behind the script.
He wasn’t prepared for the murder the movie was based on.
And he really wasn’t prepared for her, the biggest secret of all.

She was wild. She was beautiful. She defied gravity.

But was she the leading role that would tame him?

Brody is a full-length stand-alone novel! There is one bonus chapter from Cole at the end!

Review

This may date me…or, if you show readers what my father subjected me to ever since I was little, regardless, though, every time I read the title of Tijan’s latest release, Bad Boy Brody, I always want to start singing that oldie song “Bad boy Leroy Brown!”

Here’s a little snippet if you’re unfamiliar with the lyrics:

And it’s bad, bad Leroy Brown

The baddest man in the whole damned town

Badder than old King Kong

And meaner than a junkyard dog

This song was released by Jim Croce in 1973, and while it doesn’t really connect with the hero of Tijan’s story, it does put into perspective just how easy it is to pass judgment on individuals based on isolated incidences and/or a series of events that showcase their negative qualities that the public clamps onto and refuses to understand the deeper issues involved.

Brody Asher definitely does a number on his ‘public image,’ but I can’t really blame him because the circumstances surrounding his meltdown are not ones that most people could handle, let alone fight through the anger, the pain, and the chaos within in front of a society who always seems ready and ever willing to knock people down without truly understanding the root of the issue and giving the support instead of the judgment that they deserve.

Morgan Kellerman is definitely an enigma; she lives a full life on her own terms and in her own way, and while readers’ connection with her character might be non-existent or a bit challenging due to Morgan’s nature and who and what she surrounds herself with, no one can deny the healing powers of the experiences that Morgan allows Brody to have and the bonds that are created from not taking anything for granted in this one life that people are given.

My review for Bad Boy Brody would be incomplete if I didn’t discuss an integral group of characters that help both Morgan and Brody to heal… in many ways, Brody and Morgan’s story speaks to their comeback, but I don’t think it’s the one Brody’s fans want for the Hollywood golden boy turn bad boy. The wild mustangs that Morgan sees as family…that she has an unbreakable bond with do so much for her and Brody. There’s a freedom involved in a relationship with animals…they don’t pass judgment…they don’t condemn choices, and it’s in their strength and in their ability to provide unconditional love that allows the humans who hold these wild creatures in their heart to endure…to do more than just exist.

At times, I’ll admit, the story line does get a bit confusing because of the multiple perspectives; it’s not that it overwhelmed me, but I guess I didn’t understand why they were all necessary. The plot does include some difficult content due to the subject matter of the indie film as well as the fact that someone closely tied to the real-life events becomes critical to Brody’s ‘comeback’ role as well as to the healing that takes place in his heart and in his head.

I’m not too sure how to characterize the story line that Tijan crafts for readers in Bad Boy Brody. There’s a uniqueness to it, based on its setting and the impact of a group of secondary characters – ones who are wild and free and teach Brody and Morgan what it means to experience life for what it is, forgetting all the bullshit and finding a place where the only person they need acceptance from is themselves and one another. It’s probably not what some of Tijan’s readers would expect from her, but I think it speaks volumes about the kind of writing she is and her willingness to put herself out there and write the story that spoke to her…that needed to be told, and it’s those kind of writers who I’ll gladly read over and over again.

About ARROGANT DEVIL

Everyone in Cedar Creek, Texas, knows Jack McNight is an arrogant devil. Physically, I get it: he’s tan and fit, with coal-black hair that’s clearly been scorched by hellfire. Oh, and his personality? It burns just as hot.

When I show up on the doorstep of Blue Stone Ranch, I’m run-down and rockin’ my last pair of underwear. I’m hoping for a savior, but instead, I find him.

My opinion of Jack is marred by a dismal first impression, but his opinion of me is tainted even before I arrive. He’s heard I’m a spoiled princess there to take advantage of his goodwill. To him, I’m more trouble than I’m worth.

Our button-pushing banter should get under my skin. His arrogance should be a major turn-off. Problem is, devils are known to offer their own form of temptation.

Every one of his steely glares sends a shiver down my spine.

Every steamy encounter leaves me reeling.

Sure, it could be the Texas heat messing with my head, but there’s no way I’ll survive the summer without silencing him with a kiss and wrestling him out of those Wranglers.

Who knows…going to bed with the devil might just be the salvation I’ve been looking for all along.

Review

‘I escape from hell just to run right into the arms of the devil.’

That’s a perfect description for where Meredith Avery finds herself when she finally gathers enough courage to leave her ‘fabulous’ California lifestyle and her doting husband who she is ‘nothing without.’ 

And even though Jack McKnight, the devil in disguise, may star in her cowboy fantasies, he’s more than proven himself to be a rude, arrogant, and inconsiderate man – one hellbent on making this ‘pampered princess’ realize, sooner rather than later, the error of her ways and return to her posh lifestyle and her heart broken husband because that’s Jack’s perception of Meredith before they even exchange words.

But here’s the thing about misconceptions…regardless of how valid one thinks the information is, if actions and demeanors seem to contradict the acquired secondhand information, only a jack hole would be unsympathetic towards a woman who clearly could use someone building her up instead of continuing the vicious cycle of making her feel inadequate, unintelligent, and worthless.

I have to admit…I did not like Jack, even a little bit, at the beginning of the story, but I don’t think I was supposed to like him…I feel like R.S. Grey meant for her readers to see Jack as the arrogant devil the title references. We were meant to sympathize with Meredith and champion for her to prove Jack wrong, and boy did I adore how well she handled herself with the cocky s.o.b.

Meredith Avery is a phenomenal heroine – one who is stronger than most people give her credit for because despite how defeated she felt and how false her bravado was, at times, she kept her brave face on, her shoulders high, and gave every ounce of attitude back to the rascally devil who turned her on as much as he pissed her off.

Meredith and Jack’s story is an amazing journey of self-discovery for both of them, especially because their initial meeting left them with such a negative first impression, both stereotyping each other due to that initial exchange, making it almost impossible for anything put hatred to define their relationship.

But the longer Meredith stays at Blue Stone Ranch and proves the kind of person she truly is, the easier it is for Jack to see the error of his ways, now he just needs to figure out what exactly he feels for her and how to make up for his asshole behavior.

I can’t not mention a certain feisty elderly secondary character. Edith McKnight is my kind of woman; she’s wiser than anyone else in Cedar Creek and even though she’s the devil’s grandma, she, and just about everyone else but Jack, sees who Meredith truly is and she works to mend Meredith’s heart and show her just exactly what she’s worth, which means that by the time Edith’s done berating her grandson and praising Meredith, it will be clear whose side she’s on and what she plans to do to ensure that satan himself is an idiot for misjudging a beautiful, bright, and worthy woman.

Without a doubt, I have a new favorite R.S. Grey story! Arrogant Devil has the perfect combination of heartwarming and heartbreaking moments as well as a cast of characters who help the hero and heroine realize that this angel and devil might just be perfect for each other.
