“I love you to pieces,” CeCe said through clenched teeth, “but if you don’t step away from the stove, I’m going to hit you with this whisk.” She brandished the utensil like a sword, jabbing it into the air. 
Evan held his hands up in surrender, but he didn’t move out of the way. “Not gonna happen, babe. The doctor said you’re on bed rest. Don’t make me call Max.” 
His wife shot daggers at him before turning her attention back to her batter. “The babies want pancakes, and I want to make them.” 
With a huff, Evan placed his hands on CeCe’s hips and attempted to push her out of the way. A few months ago, this would not have been a challenge, but that was before she’d expanded to fit their growing family. Not only was Evan delighted at his wife’s transformation, but he was also jubilant to meet his children in the new year. CeCe was just as excited, but she was also the vehicle for their twins and didn’t like being told what to do. 
“Need I remind you, I’m perfectly willing and able to make pancakes.” 
CeCe poked Evan’s bicep. “I don’t want Bisquick.” 
Evan covered his heart with his hand, jaw falling to the floor. “Woman, you wound me. When was the last time I made you anything from a box?” 
CeCe cocked her head and tapped her temple. “That one time after we moved in together.” She winced. “I’m pretty sure you even used butter from a tub.” 
“That was like eight years ago,” Evan deadpanned, already pulling out eggs and milk from the fridge. “Not to mention, we’ve won several food competitions and helped open a new restaurant since then. I’m pretty sure I can handle a little pancake batter.” 
Quirking an eyebrow, CeCe relented and handed the bowl and whisk to her husband. “All right, tough guy. Show me what you’ve got.” 
Evan slid the bowl away before flexing his hands and lowering his voice. “I intend to.” Cradling CeCe’s head, Evan pulled her close for a searing kiss. Their bickering ceased as they melted against each other, lost in the moment, breakfast forgotten.

RELEASE BLITZ - CONTEMPORARY - FAKING THE FALL (Buckeye Falls, #4) by Libby Kay

Sparks fly when a reclusive artist meets his muse in this new installment of the Buckeye Falls series.


Faking the Fall
A Buckeye Falls Novel, #4
by Libby Kay
Genre: Contemporary Romance


Sparks fly when a reclusive artist meets his muse in this new installment of the Buckeye Falls series.

Alice Snyder knows her reputation—and if she didn’t, Buckeye Falls loves to remind her. She may come from the town’s First Family, but that doesn’t mean she plays by the rules. After a decade of traveling and going to school, she’s back home and ready to settle down, or at least relax for a while. The trouble is, her neighbors are determined to find her a husband. She needs a way to get them off her back…

When James Gibson, a divorced artist, flees New York for the peace of small-town Ohio, he’s excited to get painting again. The only trouble is, he’s completely blocked. Despite his best efforts, his collection of canvases are blank and he’s at a career crossroads. A chance meeting with the mayor’s sister throws James’s routine off balance, and he’s eager to spend more time with this quirky spitfire.

And Alice might have the solution to both their problems…

Fake Date.

She gets the Nosey Nellies off her back, and James gets time with a woman who inspires him both inside and outside the studio.

Just a few weeks of pretending, and they’ll move on. Simple, right? The trouble is the more time they spend together, the realer their relationship feels. The laughter, the stolen kisses—it all starts to feel like more.

Can these two be honest with each other and find their happily-ever-after, or are they doomed for a real breakup?

Libby Kay’s FAKING THE FALL redeems Buckeye Falls’s spinster troublemaker with a fake relationship romance filled with sweet small town vibes. FAKING THE FALL will bring to mind amazing books like Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams and Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey. But best of all, it returns readers to the small Ohio town and the familiar characters from the previous Buckeye Falls books. All the zany, overbearing, and well-meaning ones! So sit back and grab FAKING THE FALL for the latest roller-coaster romance by Libby Kay.

The air had a delicious freshness to it, a faint hint of leaves and spice in the air. 

“This was one of the best nights I’ve had in a while.” Alice only broke away from James’s hold when they reached the car. “Seriously, just what I needed.”

The itching in his fingers told James the evening was not only enjoyable, but also inspirational. The fading sunlight gave Alice a glow he wanted to capture on canvas. But first, he needed to kiss her again. Kissing Alice felt urgent, a necessity to keep him going. 

Pinning Alice against the side of his car, James caged his arms on either side of her. Keeping six inches of distance between them, he waited a moment for her to object. He was coming on strong, especially for a fake boyfriend, but he couldn’t stay away. Alice had this magnetic energy, and James was powerless to resist. 

 “Alice.” Her name escaped on a rasp. She slowly lifted her head, and James knew she felt this too. This was not a one-sided attraction; what burned between them was too strong, too special. “I’m going to kiss you now.”

“Okay.” She nodded, jutting her tongue out to lick her bottom lip. Any control James had evaporated into the early autumn air. Cupping her face, he closed the remaining distance and kissed her like his life depended on it. Because from where James was standing, it very well might. Alice felt like his lifeblood, and not just creatively. Getting her to smile, watching her come out of her shell was all he wanted in the world.

SPOTLIGHT - SWEET CONTEMPORARY - FALLING AGAIN (Buckeye Falls, #3) by Libby Kay


Falling Again
A Buckeye Falls Novel, #3
by Libby Kay
Genre: Sweet Contemporary Romance 


Welcome back to Buckeye Falls, Ohio!
Does this small town mayor have the political savvy to negotiate his way back into his wife’s heart?

From the outside, Mayor Anthony Snyder and his wife Natalie have it all. Adorable children, a lovely home, and a never-ending supply of free food from the local diner. But behind closed doors, this duo struggles to stay connected. The sparkle they show Buckeye Falls has turned a little dull on the home front.

Over the last decade, things became hectic in the Snyder household. Anthony was elected to office, following in his father’s footsteps. Unfortunately, he’s reminded regularly that these are big shoes to fill. Being the best mayor takes a lot of time—time he’s not spending with his family.

Natalie prides herself on being everything to everyone, but the job of a wife hasn’t been smooth sailing. Wrapped up in her own growing business and their kids’ activities, her time with Anthony has dwindled faster than her secret stash of Halloween candy. Natalie longs for quality time with the man she loves, but it never seems to be in the cards.

A chance to visit their family lake house promises a week away from it all, but can these two reconnect when there’s no distractions? Or is it time for these high achievers to admit that love might be the one thing they can’t master?

With a little help from the residents of Buckeye Falls, this power couple will find their way back to happily ever after.

Falling Again is the third book in the Buckeye Falls series, but it can be enjoyed as a standalone read. Featuring similar marriage conflicts as in Lyssa Kay Adams’ The Bromance Book Club and the small-town romance of Susan Mallery’s Fool’s Gold series, fans will love this second chance love story. After all, who doesn’t deserve to fall in love again?

EXCERPT

Kissing scenes:

Closing the distance between them in three strides, Anthony took Natalie by the shoulders and tugged her up against his chest.

 “I don’t want to drive you to talk about work, or this town, or anything else. I just want to have another few moments alone with my wife. Is that too much to ask?” Anthony watched her intently, waiting to see how she’d reply to his words and actions. The forcefulness of his tone surprised even Anthony. 

“Okay,” Natalie exhaled, so close her breath tickled his lips. He wanted to kiss her, whether or not the whole town was watching. 

Raising a hand to cup her cheek, he relished the feel of her soft skin under his fingers. Anthony leaned in and kissed Natalie. It was tender at first, as they searched to find the perfect angle and rhythm. Then a spark ignited, and Natalie got on her tiptoes to close the remaining distance and deepen the kiss. A quiet moan escaped her lips as she slid her tongue across his bottom lip before pulling away. 

For the first time in months, Anthony felt like a red-blooded man. He wanted to throw his wife over his shoulder like a caveman and take her back home. Reality be damned. 


*

Anthony faced her then, giving her a look that could melt the polar ice caps. In that moment, quietly sitting together with only the sound of the ticking mantel clock, Natalie felt the old spark between them. It was tangible, like she could reach out and toy with the burgeoning flame. 

“Anthony,” Natalie said his name like a prayer, leaning closer, desperate to have his lips on hers again. 

“Nat,” he replied, leaning in and cupping her cheek. His thumb absently rubbed the tender skin of her mouth, bringing her from simmering to boiling. This was the moment––Natalie could feel it. They would make love like they used to; they would connect like they used to. The anticipation was almost too much to bear, and her stomach tightened.
