NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you the continuation of the stand-alone series surrounding five best friends who co-own a tattoo studio. "Are You Ready?” is an age gap, single mom, found family, small-town romance.

Forrest

The moment I met Briar, I couldn't stay away. She's my sister's friend, but that didn’t stop me. Especially after her daughters stole twin pieces of me.

I might have inked her flawless skin, but she’s the one under mine. Something about her draws me in, even when she pushes me away.

Every time we’re together, it feels like I’m home. I want to give her my heart, my time, and my love—not just to her but to her daughters too. I’ll do whatever it takes to prove I’m the man they can depend on.


Briar

I never thought I’d fall in love again, not after everything I’ve been through. Then Forrest walked into my life, turning everything upside down.

He’s tough on the outside—with his tattoos and confidence—but underneath, he’s gentle, patient, and kind—especially with my girls. He shows he cares in small, consistent ways, even letting the twins paint his nails, making them sparkle.

The fact that they adore him scares me, because it’s not just my heart at risk if he leaves. I love him more than I’ve let myself believe. But now, I’m ready to admit it—to him and myself. The next time he asks me, I’ll be ready.

Still, I’m drawn to him. As he introduces me to a world I never knew existed, I find myself falling for him. But I’m torn because I came to Midnight Manor with a hidden agenda, and I’ve been lying to Obsidian from the start. Eventually, he’s going to find out.

#BookBlitz: The Dance by Frank J. Visosky Jr. @RABTBookTours


 

Nonfiction

Date Published: September 8, 2024

 

 

The Dance is a gripping memoir that chronicles one man's harrowing journey through the depths of medical and emotional adversity, emerging on the other side with newfound strength and hope. Set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, the author's life is turned upside down when he is diagnosed with Central Pontine Myelinolysis (CPM) after battling alcohol withdrawal. Paralyzed, trapped in his own body, and unable to communicate, he faces unimaginable challenges—both physical and emotional.

With raw honesty, the author recounts his time in the hospital, sharing deeply personal experiences of fear, isolation, and the surreal hallucinations that offered him a strange escape. His story is punctuated by moments of humor, such as the unlikely companionship of a loud, cocaine-loving Irish roommate, and moments of deep introspection as he navigates his darkest days.

But The Dance is more than a tale of suffering—it's a story of survival, resilience, and the unyielding human spirit. As the author slowly regains his abilities through painstaking rehabilitation, he draws strength from his faith, his love for his son, and a simple but powerful promise: to one day dance with the woman he loves.

A testament to the power of hope, love, and faith, The Dance is an inspiring reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

When FBI Agent Delilah Quinn survives an attempt on her life, she pretends to be dead in order to outwit her attacker.

FBI Hostage Rescue Operator Cas Demarco lives with the burning regret of choosing to join HRT and leaving Delilah behind. News of her death devastates him. Then she calls him out of the blue and he can’t help but seize this one last chance to make things right.

#BookTour: Lead Like a Pro Inspire Like a Leader by Dr. Michael Rivera @RABTBookTours


 

Nonfiction / Leadership


 

In the dynamic and demanding field of healthcare, effective leadership is paramount. “Lead Like A PRO, Inspire Like A LEADER: 6 Core Pillars For Healthcare Leaders” by Dr. Michael Rivera is not your typical leadership read; it is a practical guide rooted in real-world experience, specifically tailored for leaders in the healthcare industry. Rather than delving into abstract mindsets, Dr. Rivera offers tangible advice drawn from years of firsthand experience.

Structured around a framework of six essential pillars, this book outlines the core principles crucial for success in healthcare leadership. These pillars are not arbitrary; they have been carefully chosen because without them, achieving success in healthcare becomes an uphill battle.

One of the main challenges healthcare leaders face is the constant barrage of distractions and pressing issues. It’s easy to get caught up in firefighting mode, losing sight of the foundational aspects that ensure smooth operations on a day-to-day basis. Too often, leaders fixate on a few major issues while neglecting others, resulting in overall inefficiency.
