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 💓
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.

Atkinson: Exactly What I needed
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/239643375-exactly-what-i-needed?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_21
Hi! I just opened ARC sign ups for my
standalone, dark rockstar romance!!!!:) (it’s light on the dark scale since the
dark theme doesn’t apply to the MC’s but the plot, though the famous rockstar
does stälk the FMC for a bit)!
It’s got things like
bad boy x good girl
he falls first and HARD
yearning
diet spicy moments on a motorcycle and more
Blurb:
Cosette Duval lives a quiet, mundane
life. Exactly how she likes it.
Teach high school English. Keep the
house running. Be the responsible one while her best friend lives carefree
under the same roof. Cosette’s life is neat, predictable, safe, and exactly the
same every single day.
Until one impulsive night changes
everything.
Dragged to a metalcore concert she
never planned on attending, Cosette finds herself the sole focus of Asher
Stone—the tattooed, ethereal lead singer of the very band she didn’t know
existed hours earlier. What should’ve been a one-night stand turns into stolen
weekends, secret messages, and late-night motorcycle rides she never wants to
end.
But Cosette knows better than to fall
for a rockstar. Especially this one. Because her best friend is in love with
him too.
Dates: ARC’s go out October 1st.
Release date is November 12th!:) Reviews are due December 12th

Charlotte Belmont Friday Night Lights
*couldn't find a good reads link yet
Friday Night Lights is a dark novella of love, betrayal,
and hunger that refuses to die.
JOIN
THE ARC: https://penpinery.com/.../friday-night-lights-clearwater.../
Clearwater, Texas hides more
than football under its Friday night lights. Rachel Turner thought she’d built
a safe, ordinary life—marriage, motherhood, routines that looked good from the
outside. But when she runs into Connor Hayes, the boy who once set her on fire,
the past doesn’t just resurface. It consumes her.
What begins as a flicker of memory turns into a dangerous flame
neither of them can ignore. Secrets are confessed in the shadows of the
stadium, temptations are tasted in borrowed hours, and every stolen glance
comes with the risk of exposure.
Friday Night Lights is a dark intimate story of love, betrayal,
and the kind of hunger that doesn’t fade with time. It’s about what happens
when old flames reignite—and when confessions can no longer be contained.
This is Book One of Clearwater Confessions—a novella-length
series where no one walks away clean.
