If you are looking for a new author/your next read consider being an ARC reader/reviewer I have been doing a lot of ARC reads this year and finding a lot of new to me authors with amazing books that don't always get the hype that the more popular authors get.
Leaving reviews matter especially for Indie authors the more reviews that a book has the more it gets shown to others as an option to read.
Thank you for supporting Indie Authors ๐
If you are an author with an upcoming ARC opportunity and want me to place it in my next ARC opportunities blog post let me know!
I've added good reads links for if you are interested in the book but can't commit to the ARC read and review timelines. These ARC opportunities were taken from the authors original posts.
*I try to not submit duplicates from week to week but I have been doing the arc opportunities post for a few months now and I'm sure that a duplicate might slip in from time to time.

They call me the sensitive
Thomas twin. The plant-obsessed, sentimental, too-much one.
I don’t let it get to me because my mom taught
me to love myself and to nurture the things around me.
I haven’t quite processed her passing, not in
the way everyone wants me to. I have my plants, my siblings, and the quiet
rituals that keep me moving forward. And I also have him, my best friend, Bryce
Hampton.
Family having your back is a given. Finding a
best friend that has your back is a rare gift. One I’m grateful for.
But my best friend, he’s nothing like me. He’s
an ambitious neat-freak and perfectly on-track to make partner at his law firm
if he plays the part right. Fiancรฉe included—except he doesn’t have one of
those.
That’s where I come in.
He has this wild idea that we should fake an
engagement.
One photo. One ring. One passionate kiss that
doesn’t feel like pretend…
I’m willing to go along with his idea because he
thinks people like him don’t get to have it all. I think I want to be the
reason he’s wrong.
The only problem is I didn’t expect it to feel
this real.
Now, I don’t know if he’s falling for me or the
perfect version of us that we created to impress everyone else.
2. Erin Branscom: Hexes & Honeysuckle Wisteria Cove #3
For fans of
Practical Magic, Gilmore Girls, and small-town friends-to-lovers romance, this
one’s for you. A witchy Maren sister with black cat energy. A golden retriever
of a man who has been obsessed with her for as long as he can remember.
Rowan Maren is small-town Wisteria Cove’s wild
sister, the black cat in a family of witches who refuses to be tamed. Untamed
in ripped jeans with a streak of trouble and tattoos to prove it, she’s
perfectly content running her apothecary, stirring up a little magic, and
avoiding anything that looks remotely like forever. The one thing she doesn’t
see coming? Her best friend looking at her like she hung the moon.
Finn Bennett has been hopelessly in love with
Rowan for years. Steady and loyal, he’s the golden retriever to her black cat
chaos. For years, he’s been the safe place she runs to, the shoulder she leans
on… and the man she doesn’t realize is already hers. But after one reckless
night, Finn is done waiting. He’s ready to lay his heart bare with a confession
that could change everything.
Rowan may be juggling late-night spellwork, her
brand-new apothecary, and a town full of meddling neighbors, but Finn isn’t
afraid of her chaos, he thrives in it. He’s her biggest cheerleader, the one
building a future sturdy enough for the both of them, even if she hasn’t
realized yet that it’s all for her.

forced into an arranged marriage with a crime boss. The only light in her life?
Josiah Ford, who was just beginning his military career. Their connection was
undeniable, even as duty and danger tore them apart.
Deacon Wolfe, Josiah’s best
friend enters the picture and Saoirse finds herself in a web of soul-binding
friendship and forbidden passion.
Their friendship grew … until
the day she told Josiah she was getting divorced, and then vanished without a
trace.
Saoirse thought she’d escaped
the shadows, but the past has found her. Determined to stay alive, she runs
again. This time straight into Josiah’s world. He’s no longer the soldier she
once knew. He’s the head of the Sentinels, a covert organization the world

deadlier.
Josiah will do anything to
protect her, and Deacon is willing to confront his own demons to fight by his
best friend’s side.
Despite having the two most
important men in her life with her, Saoirse knows the danger doesn’t end with
her. Her ex is closing in, and this time he’s coming to burn everything down.
She’ll do anything to keep
Josiah and Deacon safe . . .
Even if it means surrendering
herself to the man she once escaped.
But when the past refuses
to stay buried, can love be enough to save all of them?
Betrayal runs deep, secrets lie
buried, and forbidden love ignites in Family Rules —

Madison Noelle Christmas in Timber Forge
Good reads:

Josie:
What was supposed to be a quick stop in Timber Forge to visit my best friend on
my way home for Christmas turns into being stranded on a snowy mountain
pass—with no help in sight. Until headlights cut through the storm.
Quiet, steady, and built
like a tree, Jasper offers me shelter. Now I’m snowed in, wrapped in his
flannel in front of the fire, trying not to imagine what else might warm me up.
As the storm rages
outside, each laugh and stolen glance makes my pulse race—and leaves me
wondering if some things—like Jasper—are worth staying for.
Jasper: High
above Timber Forge, my family’s cabin on the ridge has been my refuge—a place
to escape loss, disappointment, and the noise of the world. I’ve built my life
around quiet routines and the safety of solitude, convinced I don’t need
anyone.
Then Josie shows up,
stranded in the storm, full of light and laughter, and determined to bring back
Christmas. She’s thawing my defenses one smile at a time, making me wonder if
it’s possible to hope again.
Every second I spend with
her makes it harder to imagine letting her go. I remember the silence before
her—and I’m not sure I want to live in it again.
6. Sara Evou: Love For Her
Good Reads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/242406104-love-for-her?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=WiwwBTUwU4&rank=4
Who says you can't find love through a simple case of
stalking?
I have one goal, and that is to save my mom by any
means necessary.
As a doctor, I know the severity of her cancer
diagnosis. While a promising treatment is available, there’s a problem. It
costs a lot of money. Money I don’t have.
While my deadbeat dad was never good for anything
in my life, there is something I need from him--money. And I will do anything
to get it.
Luckily, I found someone to help me. Even if he doesn’t know it yet.
Tyler Matthews was hired to protect my dad. The
plan was just to get close enough to get what I needed. But I found something I
wasn’t looking for.
Love.
Only one question remains…will I be able to keep
the two people I love most when the truth comes out?

He thinks love is a lie. She's about to prove him wrong.
NHL star Mac Sullivan's career is on ice after a
tragic accident, and his viral rant calling romance "dangerous
fantasy" just made him public enemy number one for the people of
MillbrookFalls, the former romance capital of New England. Hiding out in the
small town where he spent childhood summers, the last thing he expects is to be
confronted by Delaney Caldwell—the girl who used to have a crush on him and now
owns the local bookshop he nearly destroyed with his big mouth.
Delaney's solution? A bet. Ten dates based on
classic romance tropes. If she wins, he publicly apologizes and admits love
exists. If he wins, she has to come to every game in his jersey for a full
season.
What starts as a battle of wits becomes something
neither of them saw coming. Because sometimes the best love stories begin with
a wager...
And sometimes the person
you're trying to convince is yourself.

Cassie Blake has spent her whole life building walls—around her heart,
her dreams, and her future. With a mom lost to addiction and a father who
walked out before she learned how to ride a bike, Cassie’s learned the hard way
that relying on anyone but herself only leads to disappointment. She’s
determined to carve out a better life, even if that means pushing everyone
away—especially guys like Jace McKinley.
Jace has a reputation—reckless choices and no
strings attached. But behind the charm and bad-boy smile is someone who sees
Cassie for who she is. He sees past her guarded exterior and wants more than
just a chance—he wants all of her. But Jace is hiding something. A secret that
could break the fragile trust Cassie is starting to give him—or finally set
them both free.
