https://mybook.to/TheLegacyOfSummer

Two guys locked in a quiet war until the music—and whatever’s building between them—breaks through the silence. Is this their shot at something real?


EZRA
I’ve worked too damn hard to earn my place here as a program assistant, resident, and musician. The youth center gave me a roof, a reason to stay clean, and a shot at being more than what people see: tats, blue hair, and a temper.
Then he walks in like he owns the place.
Sasha doesn’t belong here. Smug grin. Preppy clothes. Ridiculous freckles. He plays at being the cool guy, but I see right through him—he’s hiding something. And I don’t trust pretty boys with perfect smiles. Especially not ones who make my skin itch in all the wrong ways.

SASHA
I came back to Seaside, Oregon, to clear my head, find some guidance, and play guitar, not clash with the world’s angriest violinist. Ezra acts like he’s got me figured out from day one, but he doesn’t know me. He doesn’t know how loud the silence is at home, how much I need this band to feel like I matter somewhere.
Still, every glance from him sets me on edge. Rehearsal is a battle. He’s infuriating, impossibly talented, and far too distracting.
The rock legend mentoring us says whatever’s between us—resentment, rivalry, whatever it is—needs to fuel our performance.
But what if the tension breaks us before the music ever begins?

Preorder here:
https://mybook.to/PrinceOfHiddenShadows

He walks in light. I come from shadows older than time. So what twisted fate led him to me?

My life in the Underworld has always followed my father Hades' will. Now he’s sent me to Earth on a secret mission tied to the balance between realms. I didn’t expect a mortal to crash into me at the Renversé Hotel—a haven for runaway royals like me. But fate twists, and he ends up where no living soul should: my world. I have to bring us both back to where it started.

Théo’s a French con artist, hiding more than he lets on. Distance between us never lasts. The more time we spend together, the harder it is to ignore the bond that shouldn’t exist but refuses to fade.

Gods don’t fall for mortals. But when he mentions the painting, I realize he’s bound to my mission in ways neither of us saw coming. The past is stirring—and this might not be chance, but fate rewriting the myth around us.

It’s book 5 of the “Runaway Prince Hotel” collab series, where magical royals find love over a cup of coffee, HEA guaranteed.

NEW RELEASE: Rocking the Receiver by Hope Irving

Rocking the Receiver TeaserIn another lifetime, he’d totally be my type.

I’m a musician and won’t risk my shot at making it big by coming out publicly… yet. Only my mother and the woman who poses as my girlfriend know. I haven’t confided in my best friend of fifteen years, but his much younger brother, Elliot, suspects. I refuse to allow the French brat’s obsession with me to topple the walls I’ve erected to protect my secrets.

Of course, Elliot wouldn’t out me, and my lips are sealed. I’m the only one he told. The only one he claims to want. The only one he trusts to punch his V-card before starting college in the US. I refuse to rock his world; he’s way off-limits.

While he works to pursue his dream of playing for his favorite NFL team, the Austin Troopers, my music draws me closer to him… Then tragedy strikes. Elliot turns out to be a surprisingly solid shoulder to lean on.

But there’s too much at stake to cave or reveal unspoken truths now. Our safe closet. Our age gap. Our public careers… And most of all, my friendship with his clueless brother.

Is a potential relationship worth the risk?


Rocking the Receiver is a contemporary MM sports romance and is part of The Austin Troopers shared world. It's about first times, fame, and two stubborn redheads who have to figure out how to deal with their issues to find their HEA.

Tropes: Best Friend's younger brother, Age Gap, Virgin MC, Rock Star & Football Player.
If you want more backstory on Rupert as a secondary character, be sure to grab Oh Boy! (MF) & The Men of Summer (MM).

Happy reading!

The Men of Summer
by Hope Irving releasing July 31
Part of the Summers in Seaside Series
A Boys of Summer Sequel

Preorder here: https://mybook.to/TheMenOfSummer

Their greatest responsibility might be their most rewarding challenge.

After Dante came to terms with being bi five years ago, he fought for our second chance and we quickly settled into a routine… until life threw us a curve ball. A responsibility neither of us envisioned.

We struggle to find balance while Dante’s on the road with his band. It can get lonely sometimes, but mostly working from home as an ethical hacker, keeping my personal life under wraps, and raising a child who’s not actually ours keeps me busy. I capture the mundane moments Dante’s missing, one photo at a time. We may not be a picture-perfect family, but I can live with that… as long as nobody gets hurt in the process.

I’ll do anything to protect them. A found family. A beautiful family. My family.

Super ebook sale - Very limited time

Omega Artist super sale Teaser꧁ 𝕆𝕞𝕖𝕘𝕒 𝔸𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕤𝕥: 99c ebook SALE (MF Contemporary Romance) ꧂
𝕆𝕞𝕖𝕘𝕒 𝔸𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕤𝕥 is on sale for only 99c!
This is a worldwide sale and is only for a VERY LIMITED time!
𝕆𝕞𝕖𝕘𝕒 𝔸𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕤𝕥 is based on one secondary character from Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward (Cocky Bastard series), but can be read as a standalone.
What Goodreads reviewers are saying:
“Art crossed lovers! Amazing!... This book has all the feels”
“I was totally enthralled throughout this addictive page turner”

 
One-click 𝕆𝕞𝕖𝕘𝕒 𝔸𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕤𝕥:
All Amazon platforms


I lured and tricked Tig into a random hookup on social media.
He has no clue he’s anything but random to me.
He has no clue we’ll play by my rules.
He has no clue I’ll seduce him, then dump him because he deserves it.
 
I refuse to allow manwhores like Tig de Luca to be praised and called Don Juan for collecting women, while I’m labeled as easy for test-driving the countless suitors selected by my old-fashioned father.
I am a woman-empowering French influencer, and I’ll teach the once famous tattoo artist a lesson. It’s risk-free after all; I’m not into cocky alphas and crave a genuine connection.
 
I didn’t expect the game to quickly escalate into steamy, intriguing, and witty conversations.
I didn’t expect our undeniable virtual chemistry to transfer to real life.
I didn’t expect to unearth the real man beneath the surface and guarded attitude. A widower who erected barriers to protect his wounded heart. A lonely thirty-something who’s not the monster I believed him to be. An omega artist who’s not my type, but that I share some unlikely affinities with.
Still, we both want something casual that doesn’t require a label. I can’t let our infuriating attraction and astonishing compatibility overrule common sense. I’m on a mission after all.
All good things must come to an end, right?
Except our ending was one I didn't see coming.


Omega Artist is also FREE to read in Kindle Unlimited and available in audio as well!
The Audiobook & the paperback are also on sale on amazon.com.
All Amazon platforms

Cover Reveal! Check out "my" Goldilocks... & try to unearth the three Bears on the cover!

The Goldilocks Principle Cover Reveal Teaser
꧁COVER REVEAL꧂
𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝔾𝕠𝕝𝕕𝕚𝕝𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕤 ℙ𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕝𝕖

by Hope Irving releasing July 14
Part of the Ever After Series

Preorder here: https://books2read.com/u/3Lj2ZJ

One summer, two men chasing a fresh start, and three meddling Bears. What could go wrong?

ELI
Fairytales are overrated. At least, I’m tired of experiencing their dark side. Must be why I hate my nickname: Goldy.
My summer vacation is the perfect excuse for a fresh start. Sea. S*x. Sun.
The irony isn’t lost on me when I meet three burly, colorful, and furry men—known as Bears—who quickly become friends and confidants. Yet, it’s a bi-curious voyeur who piques my interest and provides the ideal distraction.
Spellbound, Tristan and I agree to give our insane attraction a try. I’m left wanting more, but we’re on borrowed time. I shouldn’t get my hopes up.
I know very little about him, and there’s no such thing as Prince Charming in my fairytale, right?

TRISTAN
My fairytale life is a lie. I’m privileged, but everything the public thinks they know about me is a charade. I need a breather and flee the French Riviera to enjoy some anonymity and visit my American friends and relatives. There, a gorgeous blond male turns my life upside down, eliciting feelings that I’ve never allowed myself to acknowledge. We’re not meant to be for more reasons than I can count. Even if we were, dragging Eli into the limelight wouldn't be fair. Some secrets are better left unsaid… unless he is worth the risk.
Can summer promises heal past wounds and lead to a lasting future—and our happily ever after?

Inspired by the classic fairytale Goldilocks & The Three Bears, The Goldilocks Principle is a contemporary bi-awakening MM romance with low angst and a French flair.
It features:
> a lonely guy yearning for a fun vacation, and slightly impulsive tendencies
> a confused French-American celebrity hiding from the world and labels
> 3 protective and colorful Bears welcoming guests in Provincetown, Massachusetts
> a hot summer deal and a happily ever after fairytale ending!

The Goldilocks Principle is part of the Ever After series with stories inspired by classic fairytales. Each story can be read as a standalone, but why pick just one when you can experience a whole world of fairytales?

NEW RELEASE: Twenty Questions by Hope Irving

Twenty Questions New Release TeaserOne unexpected kiss. Two wounded men. Twenty unanswered questions… but only one matters.

When I went on vacation with my boyfriend Alex, I never expected to end up with another man’s lips on mine. My savior, fashion photographer Nino Toussaint, only intended to bring me back to life after a surfing accident nearly ended me. Still, his lips spark a connection that turns my safe world upside down by offering a lifelong friendship worth keeping, even long distance.

Bogged down in a slowly suffocating relationship that oversteps my boundaries, I turn to my new friend as a breather. Doubting Nino will accept me as I am, my overthinking head turns to my favorite game, Twenty Questions, until he raises more life-altering questions.
As life unravels, ghosts from the past continue waking me up at night and haunting me during the daytime. I’m willing to risk everything for a positive answer to this lingering question…

Can Nino be the answer I am truly seeking?

Twenty Questions is a Strangers-To-Friends-To-Lovers MM Romance
https://mybook.to/TwentyQuestions

The Foolish Games Series is a contemporary M/M series with interconnected stories that can be read as a standalone. Each book follows a different couple. I suggest the following reading order to better enjoy background stories and Easter eggs:
- Seven Minutes In Heaven, Book 0.5: Prequel to the series (novella); James and Alex's story. An exclusive novella that's only available to my subscribers for now.
- Twenty Questions, Book 1; Ash and Nino's story.
- This or That, Book 2; Mike and Troy's story.

Book 3 is a WIP at the moment. Stay tuned by subscribing to my newsletter or following me on social media.

Twenty Questions was previously published as a novella called Lip Service as part as an anthology that's no longer available. Since then, it has been expanded to a full-length rebranded novel with new content, fresh edits, and more swoon moments between Ash and Nino.

If you want more backstory on some of the characters in Twenty Questions, I've got you covered with an exclusive novella for my subscribers: Seven Minutes in Heaven (Book 0.5): James and Alex's story.

New MM contemporary romance: It's cover reveal day!

Twenty Questions Cover Reveal TeaserI have so many book news to share with you today!
It's about time I share more about the Foolish Games series.
I'm sooo excited about this contemporary series and these guys you're about to discover or rediscover. Their interconnected stories can be read as standalones.

I suggest following the reading order to better enjoy background stories and Easter Eggs.
» Seven Minutes in Heaven (Book 0.5); James and Alex's story.
» Twenty Questions (Book 1); Ash and Nino's story.
» This or That (Book 2): Mike and Troy's story.

Inspired by the Star Wars franchise (lol), I actually started the series with This or That which is already live. Some of the characters begged for their story to be told, so I made do.
The story of the men in Book 3, which is a WIP, actually happens after Book 2!

To celebrate the upcoming release of Twenty Questions, that's Nino Toussaint and Ashton Cooper's extended story, here's a few treats for y'all to enjoy!

Two cover reveals in the series instead of one!
1 - Twenty Questions (previously released as a novella: Lip Service).
It's on preorder at a discounted price: https://mybook.to/TwentyQuestions
I had to postpone the release due to one of my beta readers being sick; I didn't feel like completing the story without giving him the opportunity to send his feedback.
I'm aiming for an April release; the date will be confirmed soon, but know that it won't be as late as June 31, as listed on Amazon.
It'll also be available for free on KU.
