I binged the first half of this series last year, and I cannot wait to be back with the Arizona Vengeance boys in this book … it’s going to be so good.
I built myself up from nothing. A product of the foster care system, I learned early on how to fight hard to get what I want. Whether it was starting my first company in college, earning my first billion, or buying my first professional sports team, I know how to get what I want, when I want it.
Until now.
Willow Monahan is fierce, independent, and hot as hell. She also takes great pleasure in shutting down my advances. The younger sister of one of my star players, Willow intrigues me to my very core. And while she may have willingly given me her body, she is hesitant to offer up more. Now I’m on a mission to find out why.
I’ve decided to approach my desire for Willow like I’ve approached much of my life; with persistence, determination, and a whole lot of that Dominik Carlson alpha charm. Buying a hockey expansion team, building the Arizona Vengeance from the ground up, and bringing home a championship may prove to be an easier feat than winning Willow’s heart.
But I’ve never been a quitter.
Willow Monahan… I’m coming for you

New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey returns with a unique, sexy romantic comedy about a young married couple whose rocky relationship needs a serious renovation.
Rosie and Dominic Vega are the perfect couple: high school sweethearts, best friends, madly in love. Well, they used to be anyway. Now Rosie’s lucky to get a caveman grunt from the ex-soldier every time she walks in the door. Dom is faithful and a great provider, but the man she fell in love with ten years ago is nowhere to be found. When her girlfriends encourage Rosie to demand more out of life and pursue her dream of opening a restaurant, she decides to demand more out of love, too. Three words: marriage boot camp.
Never in a million years did Rosie believe her stoic, too-manly-to-emote husband would actually agree to relationship rehab with a weed-smoking hippy. Dom talking about feelings? Sitting on pillows? Communing with nature? Learning love languages? Nope. But to her surprise, he’s all in, and it forces her to admit her own role in their cracked foundation. As they complete one ridiculous—yet surprisingly helpful—assignment after another, their remodeled relationship gets stronger than ever. Except just as they’re getting back on track, Rosie discovers Dom has a secret… and it could demolish everything.
Hey guys,

I have a couple of posts scheduled in for the next couple of weeks, but l will resume active blogging as normal once more in early February.
See you all in Feb!

For the past two months, Australia has experienced the worst bushfire season we’ve ever encountered. As of two days, ago (I couldn’t find more up to date statistics that I could verify) an estimated 23 people (The Guardian) had lost their lives with more people missing. According to Times.com 12.35 million acres of land has burnt, with an estimated 1500 homes lost nationally (7 News), and entire towns wiped off the map. Billions of animals have perished with fears that some species of flora and fauna have been completely eradicated.
And this is just the beginning.
Summer has barely begun here, and we still have the hottest months of the year to come.
Words can not adequately express the heartbreak and horror that is Australia right now. We are suffering, and we are struggling. Each day our firefighters back up to fight these infernos with the help of firefighters from all over the world. These men and women are our heroes. Our lifesavers. Words can not adequately express our gratitude and heartfelt thanks. Especially as so many of them are fighting without the proper equipment, and with risks to their own lives and properties each and every day.
In the midst of all this sadness and horror, the Australian community, and the world, is rallying behind our firefighters and Australia. Donations of food, clothing and everyday essentials have been flooding in for those communities worst affected, and every day Australians are throwing whatever they have at the firefighters and charity organisations to help those who need it most. Which is where the book community comes in.
Starting yesterday (Monday 6th January 2020) and running until the 11th January 2020, the book world has taken to twitter to raise some much need funds for the CFA firefighters.
#Authors4Fireys is an auction being held via twitter by authors, publishers, editors, agents and basically anyone involved in the book world. There are services, books, character names, entire series and so much more to be won via the auctions, where each bidder is asked to leave their bid in the thread below the product. Whoever has the highest bid when the auction closes is required to donate that money (in AUS dollars) to the CFA and must provide proof of donation to claim their prize.
There truly are some amazing items up for auction, and I highly encourage each and every one of you to check them out if you have the chance (just search the hashtag #Authors4Fireys and they should all come up).
