ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 7, 2026

It all comes down to this—the conclusion of The Coopers.

With the postseason on the line and the dream of a championship within reach, tragedy strikes the Lexington Coopers once again.

As Reid Hubbard’s daughter, I’ve spent my life protecting my family’s football dynasty. Pressure comes with the name. Expectations come with every game.

What I never expected was Griffin Graham.

Fourteen years after he shattered my heart, the veteran quarterback is back in my life—and somehow, back in my heart. Now the man I swore I’d never trust again is the one beside me when I fall asleep and the first face I see each morning.

But love doesn’t make winning easier.

The season has come down to this.

Every play.
Every decision.
Every game.

My father always wanted a Super Bowl victory.

Now, with everything we’ve fought for hanging in the balance and Fin facing his greatest challenge yet, the future of the Coopers—and our second chance at forever—may depend on the final score.

REVIEW:SCORED is the fourth and final instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult THE COOPERS: NFL DYNASTY erotic, football, romantic suspense series focusing on the Hubbard family football dynasty. SCORED is the continuing story of The Coopers new team owner Maeve ‘Vee’ Hubbard, and NFL quarterback Griffin ‘Fin’ Graham’s story line. SCORED should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up after the events and cliff hanger of book three SACKED.

SOME BACKGROUND: Weeks earlier, the owner and patriarch of the Cooper-Hubbard Dynasty died under mysterious circumstances leaving his daughter Maeve ‘Vee’ Hubbard in charge but questions surrounding his death and a fight for control, find the entire Cooper/ Hubbard Dynasty at odds, pointing fingers at everyone involved. An arrest has been made but all is not as it appears to be

Told from dual first person perspectives (Fin and Vee) SCORED follows the NFL’s Lexington Coopers on their run for the Super Bowl Championship. With only a few games remaining in the season, The Coopers find themselves facing the possibility of a championship season but behind the scenes, the Hubbard family remains in turmoil as the death of Reid Hubbard had yet to be solved. Anonymous threats are sent to several members of the Hubbard family, promising the truth will be revealed.

The world building focuses on the game of professional football both on the field and behind the scenes. The large extended Hubbard family all play a role running the team now owned by our story line heroine but not everyone is happy with the final outcome.

The relationship between Fin and Vee is one of second chances. Years earlier, Fin broke our heroine’s heart but his time with the Lexington Coopers brought our couple closer together. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful, questionable and charismatic secondary and supporting characters including the numerous members of the extended Cooper -Hubbard Dynasty;, as well as Fin’s parents and brother; team management, ownership, players, coaching staff, the legal teams, sportscasters, journalist, head office and the unknowns taking aim at the Hubbard family. Not everyone is whom they appear to be, and the fall-out will send the family reeling, once again.

SCORED is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and control, dysfunctional family dynamics, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dramatic, engaging and detailed; the characters are desperate and resolute; the romance is seductive, provocative and impassioned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 27, 2026

Second chance romance. Football dynasty. High-stakes betrayal.

My life, my career, my future—was built on the Hubbards’ legacy: honor, heritage, tradition. Or so I believed.

Now it’s all falling apart.

The Coopers aren’t just a football team.They’re power, secrets, and emotional warfare.

Under the bright lights of Crystal Light Stadium, the real game is finally clear.This isn’t just about the Super Bowl—It’s about protecting my family’s dynasty at any cost.

And this is when he walks back into my life.

The man from my past.My biggest regret… and my greatest weakness.

He wants a second chance.A place beside me in a game ruled by loyalty, lies, and betrayal.

But in this world, trust is a risk.And desire is a liability.

Because what we share…It’s explosive. Dangerous. Impossible to ignore.

And it might be the one thing that brings everything crashing down.Because football isn’t just a game.

It’s power. It’s legacy. It’s survival.And I’ll stop at nothing to keep it alive.

REVIEW:SACKED is the third instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult The Coppers :An NFL Dynasty erotic, football, romantics suspense series focusing on the Cooper Dynasty . This is the continuing saga of thirty-four year old, vice president of stadium operations and The Coopers new team owner Maeve ‘Vee’ Hubbard, and thirty six year old quarterback for the Lexington Coopers Griffin ‘Fin’ Graham’s story line. SACKED should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up after the events and cliff hanger of book two RUSHED.

SOME BACKGROUND: Weeks earlier, the owner and patriarch of the Cooper Dynasty died under mysterious circumstances leaving his daughter Maeve ‘Vee’ Cooper in charge but questions surrounding his death and a fight for control, find the entire Cooper Dynasty at odds, pointing fingers at everyone involved. An arrest has been made but all is not as it appears to be

Told from dual first person perspectives (Fin and Vee) SACKED picks up after the events and cliff hanger of book two RUSHED. The local police has made an arrest but as Maeve begins to deep dive into the family, vengeance and greed become an all too familiar part of their every day life. Someone wants Maeve pulled from the top, as others send a warning of what is to come.

The world building focuses on the search for the truth. There are many relatives laying claim to the Cooper / Hubbard billions, while the investigation into the patriarch’s death has yet to come to any conclusion.

The relationship between Fin and Vee is one of second chances. Fin has been on off due to injuries but a rumor begins to surface about his future, and that of his relationship with our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful, questionable and determined secondary and supporting characters including the numerous members of the extended Cooper Dynasty; team management, ownership, the legal teams, head office and the unknowns currently crawling out of the woodwork.

SACKED is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, greed and jealousy, deteriorating family values, forgiveness and love. The character driven premise is dramatic, edgy and gritty; the romance is seductive and fated; the characters are desperate, dynamic and energetic. SACKED ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 15, 2026

A dark atmospheric psychological thriller packed with small-town secrets, buried trauma, and shocking twists.

She escaped her past—and the man she never forgot.

Now with two girls gone missing, she’s pulled back into a deadly game she may not survive.

Jillian Thorne built her career making the unreal feel real.
On Hollywood soundstages, she stages murder, kidnapping, and violent crime with chilling authenticity—turning fiction into gripping entertainment.

But nothing she’s created compares to the truth waiting in Blue Gil.

Nearly six years after escaping her small hometown, Jillian is drawn back by the suspicious death of the town’s beloved high school football coach. What first appears to be a tragic loss quickly unravels into something far more sinister—a dark mystery no one is willing to confront.

Because in Blue Gil, secrets aren’t just buried… they’re protected.

As disturbing clues surface and a brutal tragedy strikes dangerously close to home, Jillian finds herself trapped inside a real-life psychological thriller. The instincts that made her successful in Hollywood may be the key to solving the crime—or the very thing clouding her judgment.

Everyone in this small town is hiding something.
Including Jillian.

To uncover the truth, she must break through an unspoken code of silence, deception, and loyalty—and face the past she thought she left behind. Because some secrets refuse to stay buried.

And in this twisted game of suspense, trusting the wrong person could be deadly.

•••••

REVIEW:RISING WATERS is the second instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult CRIME DAILY PODCAST dark, psychological thriller focusing on Hollywood set designer Jillian Thorne.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from first person perspective (Jillian) RISING WATERS follows in the wake of the death of the beloved high school football teacher in the small town of Blue Gil, Michigan. Jillian Thorne, a born and raised Blue Gillian, has returned to her home town, in search of the truth. Six years earlier, Jillian left Blue Gil, taking with her the dark secrets the town kept to themselves. Fast forward to present day, Jilian takes a personal interest in the death of Coach Gilbert, an interest that makes her the target of a potential killer. Another murder, two assaults, and a missing girl, Blue Gil finds itself the subject of a national podcast, wherein the victims become the players in a game of cat and mouse.

The world building focuses on the small town of Blue Gil, a small town where every body is connected through blood and trauma, and the memories of a young woman who lost her innocence far too young.As Jillian revisits the past, contemplating what happened and why, as history is about to repeat itself, over and over, again.

There is a large ensemble cast of questionable and frightened secondary and supporting characters who scrutinize one another, distrustful of newcomers and struggle to remain independent of the world around them. Anonymity is futile, the local police force rules without question.

RISING WATERS is a thought provoking and startling visceral story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, murder and madness. The premise is haunting, tragic, twisted and raw; the characters are desperate, secretive, edgy and dismayed.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 6, 2026

He was her past, now he might cost her the future.

I was born into a football dynasty built on power, money, and secrets.
Now those secrets are unraveling.
The truth about my family threatens everything, from the franchise to the locker room. Allies I trusted have their own agendas. And in the NFL’s ruthless good ol’ boys club, there’s no mercy for a woman who dares to challenge the league’s power structure.
This isn’t just football.
It’s an empire. It’s a legacy. It’s war.
With the franchise and my future on the line, there’s only one man I might be able to trust.
Fin—Griffin Graham.
Elite NFL quarterback. The new face of the team.
My past. My weakness. My second chance.
Our chemistry still burns hotter than game day lights. But in a professional football world ruled by contracts, media scrutiny, and billion-dollar reputations, falling for the star quarterback again could destroy everything we’re fighting to protect.
With more than our season on the line, I’m forced to choose a side.
Will it be the right choice?

REVIEW: RUSHED is the second instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult THE COOPERS erotic, romance football series focusing on the Hubbard football dynasty. This is the continuing story of The Coopers new team owner Maeve ‘Vee’ Hubbard, and NFL quarterback Griffin ‘Fin’ Graham’s story line. RUSHED should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up after the events and cliff hanger of book one INTERCEPTED.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Fin and Vee) RUSHED picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book one INTERCEPTED. The Hubbard family have been dealt a personal blow, and the Coopers Football team is waiting anxiously for new about the team and its’ ownership and management but while Vee promises there will be no changes, there are people working behind the scenes to take control from our story line heroine.

The world building follows the ongoing romance and relationship between Vee and Fin, a possibly forbidden relationship in the face of public and private perception but a relationship that has been building for a very long time.

The relationship between Vee and Fin is an ongoing love affair between a the NFL quarterback and ownership. Fin is determined to protect the woman with whom he had fall in love but the public as Vee protects the team from potential betrayal

There is another large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic, and questionable returning secondary and supporting characters including team owner Reid Hubbard’s wife Daphne, and his assistant Bre Stanton. We are reintroduced to Vee’s large extended family of aunts, uncles, and cousins, team players and management, and security.

RUSHED is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and control, family and mistrust, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is intriguing, dramatic and edgy; the romance is seductive and fated; the characters are determined and dynamic. RUSHED ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 3, 2026

At thirty-six, Fin Graham is a legend, a veteran quarterback, dangerously handsome, and built to win. The field. The season. Me.
I never thought I’d see him again, not after he disappeared and shattered me without a word. But now he’s been traded onto my family’s team, the Lexington Coopers—my turf, my legacy, and the one place I swore he’d never touch.

No one knows our past.

No one knows how hard I loved him… or how deep the betrayal cut.

And if I have any sway with the team’s owner—my father—Fin’s contract will be the shortest in franchise history.
But the problem with old heartbreaks? They remember how to start beating again.

Fin wants a second chance. I want revenge… or maybe I just want him. And the time clock is almost out.

With the future of the Lexington Coopers on the line, we have to decide if we’re working together or against one another.

••••

REVIEW:  INTERCEPTED is the first instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult THE COOPERS erotic, football romance series focusing on the Cooper family. This is thirty-four year old, vice president of stadium operations Maeve ‘Vee’ Cooper, and thirty six year old quarterback for the Lexington Coopers Griffin ‘Fin’ Graham’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Fin and Vee) using present day and memories from the past, INTERCEPTED follows the second chance relationship between thirty-four year old, vice president of stadium operations Maeve ‘Vee’ Cooper, and thirty six year old quarterback for the Lexington Coopers Griffin ‘Fin’ Graham’. Fourteen years earlier, as college sweetheart, Fin broke Vee’s heart but Fin remembers something different. As the newest member of the Lexington Coopers, Fin is determined to reclaim the woman he has always loved but Vee continues to struggle with the heart break of the past, and issues of trust as it pertains to our story line hero.

The world building focuses on the game of football: from ownership to management, players and fans, INTERCEPTED reveals some of the behind the scenes issues, as well as the ongoing family involvement that is about to spiral out of control.

The relationship between Vee and Fin is one of second chances; a rekindling romance that struggles in the face of perceived betrayal but Fin is determined to prove he is worthy of Vee’s love but Vee is about to face the biggest test of her new career. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate and seductive.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and sometimes questionable secondary and supporting characters. We are introduced Vee’s relatives aka team owners, head office/management: General Manager Royce Beasley, Darin Marsh, cousins Grant, Phillip aka Lip,and Leigh; Vee’s father and team owner Reid Hubbard, and step-mother Daphne; Fin’s Teammates quarterback Troy Dennison, cornerback Kai Flores, offensive coordinator Andrew ‘Drew’ Pratt, defensive coordinator Darius Brown; and Vee’s boyfriend Preston Clark,and Fin’s brother Zane.

INTERCEPTED is a story of secrets and lies, perceived betrayal, family and relationships, forgiveness and love. The character driven premise is dramatic and detailed; the romance is impassioned and intense; the characters are determined and dynamic. INTERCEPTED ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 17, 2025

Cartel romance, marriage of convenience, slow burn, protective hero, unexpected love, independent heroine, he falls first, age-gap, organized crime, morally gray hero, widow heroine, trauma recovery, dangerous romance

As a newly declared lieutenant in the Roríguez cartel, I’m told I need a wife. The cartel allegiance with the Luciano family has mandated multiple matrimonial mergers. However, I’m not looking for a wife in the true sense of the word. Liliana Ruiz has been in my life for years. I’d never before looked at her as a woman to pursue. When I first met her, she was damaged and timid.

Time allowed Liliana to grow into not only a beautiful woman, but an independent soul. She doesn’t want to marry, yet the time will come when it isn’t her choice. Maybe I can convince her to a mutually agreeable solution: marriage in name only.
Everything changes when danger threatens the Roríguez cartel.

••••••••

REVIEW: NAUGHTY AND NICE is a contemporary, adult, erotic, holiday novella found in Aleatha Romig’s BRUTAL VOWS Mafia romance series. This is Roriguez cartel lieutenant Nick Ruiz, and Liliana Ruiz’s story line. NAUGHTY AND NICE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Nick and Liliana) NAUGHTY AND NICE focuses on the upcoming marriage of our story line couple. As a new lieutenant in the Roriguez Cartel, Nick Ruiz is expected to marry, and his heart is set on Liliana Ruiz, a member of the Luciano Family, and a woman who believes she is not worthy of love but the Luciano Family and the Roriguez Cartel are on the verge of a war with the Cabezon Cartel, and our heroine is about to get caught in the middle.

The world building follows several pathways including the preparation for war, a wedding, and the dysfunctional family values that will eventually lead to betrayal and vengeance.

The relationship between Nick and Liliana begins as a marriage of convenience. Liliana needs protection in the wake of the upcoming war, and our hero is determined to protect the woman with whom he is falling in love but betrayal will come from within, and the Cartel will have to deal. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Luciano Family who are protective of our story line heroine.

NAUGHTY AND NICE is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and control, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dramatic and edgy; the romance is seductive and impassioned; the characters are numerous , determined and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 20, 2025

She writes thrillers for a living, but nothing could prepare her for the one she’s living now.

By day, Michelle Holdcraft is the quiet woman-next-door in small-town Indiana. But by night, she’s D. Valentine, a bestselling thriller author with a mind for murder and secrets.

Her real life?

Completely ordinary. Until one unplanned trip to visit her estranged father in Iron Falls, Massachusetts, flips everything upside down.

She wakes to a gunshot only to find her father’s body in a pool of blood on the first floor and flames engulfing the walls.
She barely escapes the burning house. Fleeing barefoot into the snow, Michelle becomes the only witness to a crime that no one in Iron Falls wants solved. Especially the sheriff.

Hiding in the snowy pines as she watches her father’s home burn, Michelle doesn’t know what to do, until a mysterious man appears, offering to help her—to save her life.

Michelle has never met Fletch—surely, she would remember this handsome and dangerous man if she had. However, Fletch knew her father and knows a lot about her, including her alter ego and her mother’s mysterious death.

With limited options, Michelle accepts Fletch’s help. It isn’t until she sees the large tattoo across his wide shoulder blades that she is shaken to the core. Michelle has seen that exact tattoo before—on her father.

Fletch might be her only ally… but he is hiding something. Somehow, her life has become one of her thrillers.
This time, the heroine doesn’t get to write the final page. The story’s out of her hands—and the ending might just kill her.

REVIEW:  FEAR OF FLAMES by Aleatha Romig is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, romantic suspense story focusing on author Michelle Holdcraft aka D Valentine, and Agency member Fletch aka Arrow.

Told from several omniscient third person perspectives including Michelle and Fletch FEAR OF FLAMES follows in the wake of the murder of Michelle’s father Denny Holdcraft, a retired police officer from Iron Falls, Indiana. A bullet, a fire, and a woman on the run find our heroine rescued by a stranger, the man with whom Michelle will fall in love but all is not as it appears to be when an investigation into a series of murder begins to point to finger at our story line heroine, a woman who is caught in a web of secrets and lies. On the run with Fletch aka Arrow, Michelle will soon discover her entire life has been predicated upon a series of lies, lies that she will eventually take to the grave.

The world building follows several paths as Michelle aka Shelly quickly realizes there is no escape from the proverbial dumpster fire that has become her life. At every corner, Michelle and Denny find themselves targeted, and Denny’s secrets reveal a close connection to the past. From dirty cops, corrupt politicians and investigative podcasters, Michelle finds herself not only a suspect but a victim as well.

The relationship between Denny and Michelle is one of rescue but quickly turns into something more. Michelle believes she knows who murdered her father but Denny has proclaimed himself guardian and protector from everyone aiming to take her down. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate and mostly implied.

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic, determined and often questionable secondary and supporting characters. The requisite evil is numerous, problematic and evil.

FEAR OF FLAMES is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, madness and murder, acceptance and love. The premise is intriguing, dramatic and dark; the romance is subtle but impassioned; the characters are desperate and dynamic. FEAR OF FLAMES ends on a bit of a cliffhanger-here is hoping the author has plans to continue their story.
