    Venetian Holiday by Christine Donovan

    Mia Russo travels to Italy to spend the Christmas Holidays with friends, the Melchionne’s. Mia expects her best friend, Rosa, to welcome her to Venice, instead it is Luca, the eldest of Rosa’s brothers. Ever since she can remember the two of them fought and argued over everything and nothing. Several years ago Mia figured out why. Her feelings for Luca go deep and she’ll be damned if she’ll let him find out. As far as she knew, he still considers her his little sister’s annoying best friend.
    Luca spent the past few years trying to ignore Mia and the feelings she stirred inside him. Pretending disdain and dislike only gets one so far. Will he be able to pull off his subterfuge once again this holiday season? From the moment he greets Mia, as she disembarks from her water taxi, he knows the answer is no. The piercing pain in the vicinity of his heart feels as though Cupid shot him straight through with an arrow. So the answer, once again, is no.
    Will Mia and Luca find amore in the cool, crisp holiday air in the most romantico and bellissimo city on earth?

    Detour Ahead by Adriana KraftDetour Ahead by Adriana Kraft #FreeBookFriday #Read

    Threatened race horses, city slicker attorney, sexy California wrangler—what can possibly go wrong?
    Hot-shot Chicago prosecuting attorney Traci Steele works tirelessly keeping rapists off the street to prevent other women from suffering the hell she’s endured, so she resists her friends’ insistence that she take a two month R and R in their California Live Oak condo—until they persuade her to help their rancher friend as a private investigator.
    Though he runs the stables at Live Oak, well-muscled mustached wrangler Scott McCord much prefers working with the race horses he trains at his ranch, and he can’t believe his old friends have sent a greenhorn female to help him with horse troubles.
    The improbable dance between this mismatched pair barely fits in around the escalating suspense of whoever’s after Scott’s horses. Traci is as tenacious in her sleuthing as she is terrified about her inability to ever love a man. Can Scott succeed in gentling her – like he does his horses – before she flees in panic?
    Traci Steele may be the most damaged of the heroines in our four-book horse racing suspense series, Riders Up. If she was a real person, she might stand up and say “Me, too” – except she’s never told anyone, not even her best friend, Cassie.

    Lies and Solace by Jana RichardsLies and Solace by Jana Richards #FreeBookFriday #Read

    Harper Lindquist is convinced she’s found the answer to her financial prayers. Unless she pours cash into crumbling Solace Lake Lodge, she’ll lose her family’s legacy. Her would-be savior arrives in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard and she’s determined to prove to her reluctant, and trapped, financier the lodge is a sound investment. But Harper isn’t completely honest with him. And she has no idea the lake is hiding secrets of its own.
    Ethan James is a liar, but his money is very real. He isn’t convinced a broken-down inn is a smart investment opportunity. But the more he understands Harper’s dreams and desires, the more he wants to be the man to make them come true. The trauma in both their pasts means neither can fully trust the other. They must find the courage to love, to trust, and to accept, or yesterday’s sorrows will keep them apart.
    She can’t handle one more lie. He can’t tell the truth.

    An Uncommon Love (Romantic Realms Collection 2) by MJ SchillerAn Uncommon Love by MJ Schiller #FreeBookFriday #Read

    Princess Adriana had her life all figured out…
    Or, to be more precise, she had her life all figured out for her. Before she was even born she was betrothed to Garin, and that was perfectly acceptable as he became her childhood friend, and then, eventually, the person she would swap kisses with inside the palace gardens. She never questioned it, never had a reason to, until the day a commoner was brought before her father, the King, to be punished.
    …until the day her eyes conncected with blacksmith Seth Hobb’s across a stone courtyard.
    When he creeps into the castle at night to thank her for freeing him, they begin to build a relationship with one another that is often as explosive as it is endearing. But fate ends up separating the two and they must undertake a long and arduous journey to be reunited.
    But with everything against them, can an uncommon love like theirs survive?
    Even then, can Adriana make Seth see her for herself and not as the princess he imagines? And if she does, will she ever be able to convince her father that, despite his objections over Seth being a commoner, there is nothing “common” about him at all?

    Christmas Vows by Livia Quinn @liviaquinn #RLFblog #ChristmasRomanceLivia Quinn, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.

    Christmas Vows by Livia Quinn

    Genre Military Romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG-13
    Love isn’t the only thing that happens when you least expect it.
    Delilah and Luc and Samantha and Jed are looking forward to their special day, a double Christmas wedding at the Calloway Farm with their friends and family in attendance. And Beau and Maddie are expecting their baby. Great news, right? But after the women go missing with a storm approaching, and a desperate soldier threatens everyone, the men in their lives scramble to make sure Maddie’s delivery and the wedding come off as planned.
    More than a Christmas novel. Stuff just happens in Rainbow Bayou at Christmas time (hint: weddings, births, kidnappings, and second chance reunions. . .) A continuing theme of overcoming whatever challenges life throws in your path.
    Why did you write this book?
    In the timeline of the series, the next event, a double wedding, just happened to fall during December and the Calloways’ Christmas reunion. Each of the books in the series features a veterans issue, and I decided to use a recently returned soldier to complicate the plans for the wedding and Maddie’s delivery. It was great fun to bring in everyone from the community to help out and deliver a couple of Christmas miracles.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    I read everything and write both contemporary and paranormal. For total escape I read historical romance and thrillers since I don’t write them.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    My latest favorite is Matthew de Clairmont from the All Souls Trilogy. OMG, you can’t imagine how hunky and smart and powerful and well. . .look him up in Discovery of Witches, book 1.
    What are you working on at the moment?
    I’m just finishing up book 8 in the Calloways and will start on book 7 of the Destiny books next.
    What books will we see from you in coming months?
    When Love Finds You, book 8 revolves around one of the Calloway cousins, Sky O’Rourke, a former model who owns an air cargo business in Rainbow Bayou.
