Spotlight: Make It Last by J.H. Croix

/

Release Date: August 7

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

A freshly divorced heroine. A rugged small-town Alaska firefighter, and the accidental glacier rescue that changes everything.

My marriage blew up. So I went to Alaska. Obviously, the logical next step. If my cheating ex hadn't gotten caught, I'd still be the fool who thought I had forever. Instead, I'm on a reckless divorce trip, trying to figure out what starting over even looks like. I came to the wilderness to find myself again, not to break my ankle on a freezing glacier.

Enter Tanner Houlton.

He's a local hotshot firefighter, a flannel-wearing knight, and the exact kind of steady, protective man who shows up when everything goes wrong. I'm an expert at hiding my pain behind loud laughter, but Tanner sees right through my defenses.

What I don't expect is how much that steadiness costs him. He has his own scars, yet he's determined to prove I'm worth fighting for. I swore off men the second I signed my divorce papers, but as the snow melts around us, this broody firefighter is slipping past all of my defenses.

Perfect for readers who want a healing, slow burn romance featuring a heroine learning to trust again after betrayal and a steady devoted hero. Ideal for fans of Elsie Silver, Devney Perry, and Lucy Score.

From USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix comes a swoony, small-town firefighter romance packed with heat, heart & all the feels!

It all started with a bee sting, and ended with a firefighter who changed everything.

When a bee sting sends me into a near-anaphylactic shock, I crash into a boulder. Enter Kincaid Greene — rugged, swoon-worthy hotshot firefighter, all calm strength, quiet confidence and my unexpected hero. Even in my dazed, half-conscious state, my hormones take notice. Extra points: my dog instantly adores him.

Kincaid is the kind of small-town hero who falls hard and doesn’t hesitate. Protective, loyal, and determined to win my heart one slow, sizzling kiss at a time. He’s not afraid of the trust issues I’ve built brick by brick. But trusting a man like him—one who burns this hot—feels like playing with fire.

Too bad my heart doesn’t get the memo.

What starts as a slow burn turns into chemistry that smolders. Every touch feels like striking a match with an emotional pull we can’t ignore.

An emotional, steamy small-town Alaska firefighter romance with a protective hero who falls first, slow-burn tension, emotional angst, surprise baby, sizzling chemistry, hurt/comfort, found family and happily ever after.

Release Date: January 15

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

A swoony small-town friends-to-lovers romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix filled with slow-burn chemistry, emotional angst, and a broody hero who falls hard.

Best friends don’t kiss… unless they’re ready to break every rule.

I’ve been half in love with Kendall Castille for years. She’s my best friend. To her, we’re just friends. To me? She’s everything.

I’ve kept my feelings buried, convinced I’m not the guy for her, or anyone. Love comes with scars, and I have too many to count. I’ve already lost enough. So I build walls, and I keep my heart locked down.

But when I catch a glimpse of something more in her eyes, when I realize she might feel the same way, everything starts to unravel. The walls I built to protect my heart begin to crack. The pull between us grows stronger… and impossible to ignore.

Wanting her isn’t the scariest part. Losing her would be devastating.

Kendall & Jude’s emotional small-town romance is perfect for readers who love slow-burn tension, broody heroes, fierce heroines, and best friends who fall hard when everything’s on the line.

One kiss. One choice. One love worth risking everything for.

Read now in Kindle Unlimited or one-click today to fall in love with Kendall & Jude.

A swoony & emotional small town firefighter romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

Meet cute gone wrong… or Maybe just right?

Take One: I met Parker Reeves when I was seventeen. We shared a few unforgettable hours, but I told so many lies he doesn’t recognize me the next time we meet.

Take Two: A decade later, I’m the definition of a hot mess—soaking wet, stranded, and pulled from the ocean by none other than Parker. He’s all rugged hero, firefighter instincts on full blast, and the kind of grumpy that’s unfairly attractive.

The list of reasons why falling for him is a bad bet for me is longer than a country mile. My baggage could fill a firehouse, and his growl is almost as fierce as his protective streak. But when I’m with him? For the first time, I feel safe. And that’s all I’ve ever wanted.

*A full-length, standalone romance.

Spotlight: Mine This Time by J.H. Croix

Release Date: September 15

A swoony billionaire, brother’s best friend romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

Nash Reynolds is every woman’s dream. Just not mine.

We’re talking tall, devastatingly hot, richer than sin, with a brain that could rule the world—and that Southern drawl? It could melt steel.

But I’m not every woman, and those aren’t my toes curling. Nope. Definitely not.

I don’t do charming. I don’t do complicated. And I definitely don’t do men like Nash—men who come sweeping in just when I’m trying to piece my life back together.

My ex taught me well: love makes you stupid, and depending on a man only ends in disaster. So why does Nash keep showing up when I need him most?

Why does his smile make me forget how to breathe? Why do I catch myself wondering… what if?

He’s tempting, maddening, and just maybe, worth the risk.

Because sometimes love isn’t a trap. Sometimes it’s the easiest thing in the world.

For readers who love:
💘 Sassy meets protective
🔥 Southern charmer with a sinful smirk
⛔ Love after betrayal
🧯 Off-limits (but oh-so-tempting)
🛠️ He shows up when she needs him most

*A full-length, standalone romance.

An earlier version of Mine This Time was previously published as Easy This Time as part of the Boudreaux Universe. It has been out of publication since Dec 2021.
