Nook Free Friday - October 2024

The Nook Free Friday selection for October 4th is Jordan Reclaimed (Preload Series #1) by Scarlett Cole.

 

Jordan Reclaimed (Preload Series #1)

 

From the queen of heart-pounding, sexy, emotional romance Scarlett Cole comes Jordan Reclaimed, the first novel in the Preload series.

He's a rockstar, she's a ballerina, they're worlds apart yet just what the other needs.

Jordan Steele’s life began when he was ten. When he was taken from his parents and a house that was never a home. When he met his brothers, the other lost and abandoned boys in his group home. When he learned what friendship and family and love looked like.

Now he’s made a career out of playing the music he loves, touring the world with the band he and his brothers formed in that crowded group home. No one but his found family really knows the man under the fame and fortune, the scars he hides behind the rockstar lifestyle. Until he sees her through the windows of the National Ballet, dancing, and suddenly the world doesn’t seem so dark.

Aleksandra Artemov ticks all the ballet boxes. Father a legendary Kirov dancer. Check. Prepping since birth for classical ballet. Check. Compulsive control over the food she eats. Check. Principal dancer at The National Ballet of Canada. Check. But what she craves is freedom.

She craves Jordan.

Everything about him should terrify her. His size, his tattoos, his hard rock edge. But he doesn’t. He stirs her very soul. Jordan has nothing but himself to offer her, and he's never been good enough for anyone. Can he figure out how to face his own demons before he loses his light for good?

The Nook Free Friday selection for October 11th is When You Bake with the Enemy by Lia Huni.

 

When You Bake with the Enemy: A sweet romantic comedy

 

Jamie O'Callaghan might have bitten off more than she can chew...

When her boyfriend cheated, Jamie did what any rational math teacher would do: she moved three thousand miles to Rotheberg, the "Alpine Jewel of Oregon." She can live with the town's weird obsession with The Sound of Music, and Mrs. Fogelhaus's stollen is to die for, but when her principal assigns her a baking class, she needs help. She teaches calculations, not cooking.

Rotheberg's golden boy, Dylan Mead, should be the solution to her equation. The culinary genius is handsome, loaded, and would do anything for his hometown. Helping Jamie teach a bunch of kids to bake brownies should be a piece of cake. Except he wants to demolish her classroom to build his bakery.

But Jamie's not about to throw in the towel and return to Virginia. She's not going to let a silver-spooned pastry chef torch her class. And she's definitely not going to let him melt her heart.

Watch out, Dylan Mead--this mathematician's got your number.
