But when a hero of mankind needs help, you do what you have to, even if it compromises everything you know and totally changes your life.What makes this special: Mariana Zapata, the undisputed queen of slow-burn romance with millions of devoted readers worldwide, brings her signature patience and emotional depth to the romantasy genre. If you’ve been craving a grumpy-sunshine dynamic with actual supernatural stakes, where the relationship development feels earned rather than instant, this is your book. Zapata’s fans know she doesn’t rush anything—not the banter, not the tension, not the payoff—and that deliberate pacing combined with a crash-landed superbeing makes for an irresistible combination. Perfect for readers who loved From Blood and Ash but wished the romance built more gradually, or anyone who wants their fantasy heroes complicated and their heroines refreshingly practical.A Montana Christmas Homecoming (Big Sky Book 1)Author: Watt, JeannieFREESmall-Town Holiday RomanceThis Christmas, home might be the best destination of all.Jason Regan doesn’t do relationships or long-term commitments.

With her make-or-break “Home for the Holidays” adoption event approaching, the last thing she needs is distraction… especially in the form of a broad-shouldered, maddeningly handsome volunteer who makes her pulse race.Between fixing kennels, brushing shoulders in the supply closet, and chasing one mischievous terrier named Neville, their chemistry sparks hotter than a Christmas fire.But Jason’s clock is ticking. Can a little holiday magic—and a lot of temptation—convince him that some things are worth staying for?A Brilliant Night of Stars and Ice | The True Story of the Only Ship that Answered Distress Call of the Sinking TitanicAuthor: Connolly, RebeccaFREEHistorical FictionShortly after midnight on April 15, 1912, the captain of the Carpathia, Arthur Rostron, is awakened by a distress signal from the RMS Titanic, which has struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage. Though information is scarce, Rostron leaps into action, determined to answer the call for help. But the Carpathia is more than four hours away, and there are more questions than answers: Will his ship hold together if pushed to never-before-tested speeds? What if he also strikes an iceberg? And with the freezing temperatures, will there be any survivors by the time the Carpathia arrives?Kate Connolly is excited to join her sister in America and proud to be traveling on the grand Titanic. As a third-class passenger, she is among the last to receive instruction and help after Titanic hits an iceberg. Despite the chaos of abandoning ship, Kate is able to reach the upper decks and manages to board a lifeboat, though after seeing the Titanic sink into the abyss and hearing the cries from the hundreds of people still in the water, she wonders if any rescue is even possible.Told in alternating chapters from both Captain Rostron on the Carpathia and Kate Connolly on the Titanic, this historical novel is a compelling, heart-pounding account of two eyewitnesses to an epic disaster. Rostron’s heroic and compassionate leadership, his methodical preparations for rescue, and his grit and determination to act honorably and selflessly to save lives and care for the survivors, sets the course for this awe-inspiring story.The Wild One (The De Montforte Brothers Book 1)Author: Harmon, DanelleFREEVictorian Historical RomanceEngland, 1776: Lord Gareth de Montforte is known as an irresponsible rake with a heart of gold.

And maybe call in the big guns.Even if that means teaming up with Detective Jack Schiller, a man dealing with his own demons. 🔍 Anna’s juggling a lot: protecting her friends, helping Jack while not letting him get too close, and finding a murderer. Oh, and there’s one more thing—no one can learn about her gambling problem, or this will be the last hand she’s dealt.Jacobs creates a flawed, compelling protagonist in Anna—a woman whose addiction gives her insight into the city’s darker corners but also makes her vulnerable in ways she can’t always control. 💀 The Vegas setting pulses with neon-lit tension, and the will-they-won’t-they dynamic with Jack adds romantic friction without overwhelming the mystery.The case is solved and the perpetrator caught, but Jacobs leaves threads dangling for future books, building a series foundation that promises more trouble—and more complicated feelings—ahead. ♠️ Anna’s voice is sharp and self-aware, and her struggle to stay ahead of her own worst impulses gives the mystery real stakes.Here’s what you’re getting: a Vegas-set mystery with a gambler protagonist whose biggest risk might be trusting the detective who sees too much. 🃏 First in the Anna Dawson series—perfect for readers who like their sleuths complicated and their settings atmospheric.The Apparition in the Attic (Soul Seeker Book 1)Courtney McFarlinFREECozy MysteriesProfessional home stager Brynn Sullivan is known as the person to call when you can’t sell a house. 🏚️ She has an eye for transforming spaces, a talent for making rooms irresistible to buyers, and a secret she keeps from all her clients: she can see ghosts.When a beautiful Victorian sits on the market too long, the desperate realtor reaches out for help. But this time, Brynn may be in over her head. 👻 A ghostly mystery from the past collides with a present-day murder, and she’ll need to solve both cases to save the sale—and possibly herself.McFarlin delivers a paranormal cozy with a clever premise. The home staging profession gives Brynn legitimate access to properties with histories, and her supernatural abilities add a layer of investigation that traditional sleuths can’t access. 🔮 The spirits she encounters aren’t just spooky window dressing—they’re witnesses, clues, and sometimes complications.The Victorian setting provides atmospheric charm, and Brynn’s juggling act between her professional reputation and her secret gift creates ongoing tension. 🏡 The humor comes naturally from the absurdity of her situation: trying to stage a house for sale while also dealing with its spectral occupants.Here’s what you’re getting: a delightful paranormal cozy featuring an amateur sleuth whose real estate expertise and ghost-whispering abilities make her uniquely qualified to solve mysteries—living and dead. 👁️ First in the Soul Seeker series.The Duke and the Wallflower (The Unwanted Dukes Book 1)Jessie CleverFREERegency Historical RomanceLady Eliza Darby has been shunned by a society that prizes beauty above all else. 🌸 Her wallflower status has kept her from the one thing she wants most: to be a mother.
