Bonnie Poirier’s The Arrangement Audiobook Available Now on Google Play.
Are you an audio lover? A new auto-narrated version of The Arrangement by Bonnie Poirier is available now through the Google Play store.
The Arrangement: The Morton Family Saga Book OneAbout this audiobookKate: When Tyler showed up at my door, I knew he’d only bring trouble.
Between his ocean blue eyes and the way he filled out a pair of Wrangler jeans, I had a hard time turning down his marriage proposition. But I did.
The small-town playboy was not only my closest neighbor but the cowboy I had a secret crush on for years. We were virtual strangers. There’s no way I could marry someone I barely knew.
Our fathers, however, had a different idea. My father had risked the ranch on a business deal that didn’t pan out.
There was a price to pay, and I was the cost.
This ranch is my life and I’ve worked too hard just to let it fall into the hands of Tyler’s crooked father. Even if that means saying yes to this harebrained scheme and uprooting my life.
Tyler: Kate had been my neighbor for years.
She was quiet, worked as hard as any man, and never looked at me twice. Which was fine with me. I had plenty of girls from the bar to warm my bed.
But when my dad informed me I would take her as my bride, I didn’t hesitate.
She was fiery, strong, and fiercely independent. And maybe, just maybe, not as immune to my charms as I thought. She thought this marriage was a sham, but I became determined to get her to open up to me.
Maybe even actually fall in love with me.

FREE February Instalove Book of the Month Club – Fated to be Mine by Skye Adler
This is supposed to be my fresh start.
I’m finally standing on my own two feet.
Sure, my job at the bakery barely pays the bills and I hate the hours, but if it means that I’m out of my parents’ house, then I’ll take it.
I’m hoping that things start to settle down now. No more drama or fights. I’m looking forward to having a boring life after years of too much excitement and stress living with my parents.
Then he shows up.
She’s who I’ve been searching for.
I’ve been searching for my fated mate for the last three years with no success.
There hasn’t been even the smallest trace of her until, suddenly, she’s right in front of me.
I don’t make the best first impression but that’s okay. Now that I’ve found her, I’ve got the rest of my life to convince her that she’s fated to be mine.

I have some exciting news! I’ve teamed up with 11 other authors to bring you an Instalove Book of the Month freebie every month!
Up first is the wonderful Shaw Hart with her steamy read featuring a scarred mountain man in, Kidnapping his Forever.
Kidnapping his ForeverBrexly Vos just has to finish one more semester and she’ll have her degree. Then she can start her own business and finally help out her parents. All that stands between her and her future is a film class.
At a loss for a film subject, she finally remembers the local lore that Bigfoot lives in the woods bordering campus. She’s never really believed the legend but she figures it will be an interesting subject and easy to film. She’ll just go out into the woods and get some shots of the scenery and maybe some animal tracks, edit it together and hopefully get at least a C.
She heads out over spring break with her camera and supplies, ready to get this class over with. She’s just not prepared for what she’ll find.
*Warning! This book alpha is over-the-top, head over heels in love with his girl. If you’re looking for a steamy instalove story then this book is for you!

Chasing Glory is now live / Where Liberty Dwells .99 Sale!
Who remember’s Chase Franklin? If you need a refresher he’s Liberty from Where Liberty Dwells’s brother…yes, the same brother that beat up her cheating ex-husband (and we love him for it).
Chase is strong, sexy, ex-military and willing to do anything to protect someone he loves, but he’s also a prison inmate. An inmate forced to attend Dr. Gloria Moore’s anger management program in the prison. But what they find is more than either of them could have anticipated… and just might mean the end of one or both of them.
Chasing Glory is more suspenseful than my previous books but I absolutely adored writing Chase and Gloria’s story. The ending is also easily the most adorable conclusion to a story I’ve offered yet. And let’s not forget the steamy scenes…fun with handcuffs, anyone?
Chasing Glory
He did the crime. He’s doing the time. And now he’s about to break the rules again… for her.
Discharged and disgruntled, Chase Franklin traded in his Army fatigues for a prison jumpsuit when he confronted his sister’s cheating husband. The last thing he wants to do is attend mandatory counseling for an outburst he doesn’t regret, that is, until he meets Dr. Gloria Moore.
She’s too young for him. She’s his doctor. And she’s off-limits.
Even though he knows the risks, he can’t help but take in every curve of her body, or the way her speech jilts under his gaze. And as forbidden desires reveal themselves, he can’t help but want to dig deeper. But when he learns the truth, he knows he must do everything in his power to protect her—even from herself.
To celebrate Veterans Day, Where Liberty Dwells, my contribution to the Heart of the Wounded Hero series, is on sale for .99 (reg. $2.99) for a limited time (November 8 – 15, 2022) here: https://books2read.com/wherelibertydwells
Where Liberty DwellsAfter an accident forced Nico Andino, ex-Army Ranger, into retirement he devoted his civilian life to fixing things. First his broken back and then homes. When a call brings him to Liberty’s doorstep, it’s clear her heritage house isn’t the one in need of renovation. And he’s determined to fix the curvaceous younger woman who’s occupied his heart for years.
After her divorce, Liberty Franklin wanted to redefine herself and build the future she’d always dreamed of. A future involving her older brother’s estranged best friend, Nico, a handsome enigma of a man who would have been the perfect choice if only he weren’t off limits. But healing herself isn’t her only concern. The more time she spends with Nico, the more obvious it becomes…
She’s not the only one that’s broken.
Can Nico and Liberty both find the healing they need with each other? Or will the past force them apart once again?
