This Ain’t Our First Rodeo By Liara Tamani
If you’re a fan of cowboy romances, then this is definitely for you! This Ain’t Our First Rodeo is about Josie, whose parents own a successful, high-end restaurant chain. Their most recent addition is a restaurant right near the stadium, where Josie is expected to spend her time preparing to take over one day. But she wants nothing more than to be inside the stadium, or even far away riding her horse at her grandparents’ ranch, except her mother is planning on selling the land. We also follow Shawn, a bull rider, who, since his mother’s passing, is trying to meet his champion stepfather’s expectations. The two have a tense relationship, which is further strained by his stepfather’s extensive drinking and gambling. When Josie and Shawn meet, they race to save Josie’s family land before Shawn’s stepfather can execute a shady plan. We are so excited to see where this adventure takes us!

Romantasy readers, now is your moment! This February book release takes place at a magical school called Lyceum. It’s about Naomi, a dedicated student who is tired of boys asking her out just to be introduced to her influential aunt. To stop the requests, Naomi falsely claims she is betrothed to a demon. Everything is going to plan until she arrives home one night to find a demon named Daziel, who insists he is her betrothed. She knows he’s lying, but who can get rid of a gorgeous, banishment spell-resistant, baking demon? Afterall, most of her time is spent trying to translate an ancient scroll and keeping tabs on the unstable magic in the city. Except that the more she translates and the more she learns about Daziel, she starts to realize that something bigger could be at play. We are already swooning over this synopsis!
