SPOTLIGHT: Sweet Buns (Cedar Falls Book 1) by Shea Balik
Welcome to Cedar Falls, a small North Carolina town nestled amongst the Smokey Mountains.
Zane Fisher is prepared to fight against a proposed casino being built in his small hometown. Sure, it would bring in more visitors to their dying town, but at what risk?
Aidan Dempsey is sick of the bad coffee Cedar Falls has so far had to offer. After an exceptionally bad cup, he’s decided to swear off the stuff, that is until he’s dragged into the local bakery. Not only does he find the best cup of coffee he’s ever tasted, but the bakery owner, Zane Fisher, just might be the sexiest man he’s ever met. Too bad Zane seems hell bent on avoiding him, as he’s the project manager for the casino Zane is against.
Will they be able to find common ground or will Aidan be doomed to only having bad coffee?

AUDIOBOOK SPOTLIGHT: Something Borrowed, Something Boo (Point Pleasant Holiday Series Book 1) by Shane Morton. Narrated by Alexander Collins. [5h36]
Halloween? Check.
Halloween Wedding? Double check.
Falling in love unexpectedly at the Halloween wedding? Totally Inconvenient!
Danny: I’m trying to decide how I got roped into not only being the best man at my ex’s wedding, but also planning the damn thing with the other best man. He’s a famous actor. He’s too hot. He’s too nice. He’s also a major pain in my ass. As we work together to make this wedding the most beautiful event ever, I realize if Blake Hudson wasn’t so annoying, I’d kiss him. Well, maybe more than kiss. I might be a little in love, but it’s too inconvenient. Damn. Burying my feelings until the wedding is over is making me angsty.
Blake: How the hell can you fall in love in less than a week? I never did like doing things the easy way. I’ve learned to be careful and cautious living hidden in Hollywood all these years, but for Danny I’d throw caution to the wind. Well, I’ll have to get him to like me first. While we plan my brother’s wedding in the small town of Point Pleasant, I feel more like myself than I have in a long time. I’ll use this time to make this beautiful man see the real me, and maybe he’ll believe how serious I am about leaving my borrowed life behind and finding something real with him.

But Toby’s dark past and troubled present make it impossible to see a future with Landon. When the truth comes to light, a horrified and helpless Landon is determined to save Toby at all costs.
