Book-by-Book Guide:
Mile High—In Chicago, hockey fame comes with its own set of rules, and one player lives by them with a deliberately icy flair. He thrives in the penalty box, not on quiet evenings, until a new flight attendant aboard the team’s private plane disrupts his routine and stirs a heat he can’t ignore. As their worlds collide, the chemistry between them challenges his carefully maintained boundaries, forcing him to reconsider what he truly wants off the ice. With witty banter, sizzling tension, and a slow‑burn romance that deepens through shared vulnerability, Mile High invites readers into a high‑velocity love story that respects both ambition and tenderness. The pace stays brisk, the sass stays sharp, and the emotional payoff lands with a satisfying, heartwarming zing. The Right Move—This volume follows a newly minted captain who must juggle leadership with a surprisingly domestic complication: Indy Ivers, his sister’s best friend, moves into his apartment. She’s messy, living in vibrant chaos, and irresistibly compelling. When management questions his readiness for the role, he must prove balance isn’t a weakness but a tool for success. The romance unfolds as they navigate trust, boundaries, and the tension between professional duty and personal longing. Tomforde’s humor and heart come through as the duo discovers that the best partnerships—whether on court, on court, or off—are built on honesty, respect, and a willingness to grow together. Caught Up—A celebrated pastry chef, newly crowned with a prestigious award, finds the clock ticking on her ability to deliver something fresh. With two months to restore her culinary spark, she’s tempted to lean on familiar flavors, but the clock—and her ambitions—won’t wait. Family dynamics, professional pressure, and a need to prove herself collide in a tender, atmosphere‑rich narrative. The romance emerges through shared vulnerability and mutual respect, as she learns to trust her instincts again and to allow someone new to taste her true artistry. Tomforde’s voice blends sensory detail with emotional resonance, delivering a confection of suspense, sweetness, and personal triumph. Play Along—The Windy City Warriors hire a capable woman who’s determined to secure her dream role in a male‑dominated sport. She faces a season of scrutiny, a demanding professional environment, and the challenge of protecting her reputation while chasing a future‑changing opportunity. A Las Vegas encounter with a team shortstop adds a splash of risk and heat, testing boundaries and loyalty. This story balances professional devotion with romantic tension, showcasing a heroine who refuses to compromise her standards, even as attraction intensifies. The result is a vivid, empowering romance that celebrates grit, ambition, and the joy of finding a partner who supports you without dimming your light.
