ARC Opportunities November 21, 2025


 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 πŸ’“

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.

 Her magic is a mess. Her fighting? Even worse.

Maelis has spent her life hiding a forbidden gift in a realm where magic is outlawed. Bound by duty to her family and a fate she never chose, she’s spent years following rules written by others.

Being a God comes with perks. Touch-starvation isn’t one of them.
Auretheos, God of Wisdom and Cunning, is sworn to purity. Chained to an ancient prophecy, his destiny lies in silence, solitude, and sacrifice. The last thing he needs is a stubborn, enticing and utterly chaotic mortal with a mind of her own.

But when a rising force of zealotry threatens to consume both divine and mortal realms, only the unlikely bond between Theo and Maelis can stop it. Love wasn’t part of the plan, but destiny doesn’t care about plans.

In a world where even the Gods are bound, The Spell of Us asks: 

Do we shape Fate, or does Fate shape us?

He didn’t need love, only leverage. Until she ran, pregnant and broken.

Five years ago, I made a deal with the devil. Bratva heir Artyom Petrov.

Ruthless. Filthy rich. Fourteen years older.

“Everything has a price, little thief,” he whispered in that dim room. “This is what my mercy costs.”

His powerful touch made my breath hitch, raw and irreversible. But when those two pink lines showed up, I ran — driven away by the hissing nest of vipers that surrounds him.

 

Now I’m back in the city and I thought he’d forgotten me. Oh how wrong I was — he might have ruined me, but I consumed him. He spent five years protecting me in the dark shadows of obsession.

And as the bullets fly around us, he puts a ring on my finger. Shattering my doubts with his rough hands and possessive words.

I’m his.

 

Which means there’s a blood-soaked target on my back. But his twisted plan will protect us. It has to.

Because our daughter’s life is at stake if he can’t win this battle…

Blurb:

“I didn’t tell him my full name for a reason … If he looked me up, he’d know who I am.”

Mila

Building a media empire required years of sacrificing family time. Selling it is my fresh start.

When my stupid ex threatens to destroy my life’s work, I make an emergency trip to Nashville to catch country music’s biggest band and stop a career-ending secret from getting out.

The last thing I need is a distraction. Especially from a sexy silver fox who steals my seat at a roadside bar.

Patrick proves he can handle a woman like me, but can he handle the truth when he finds out who I really am, and where I’m going?

 

Patrick

After my daughter calls me in crisis, I drop everything and hit the road.

I expect to make good time to Nashville. I don’t expect to burn up the sheets with a firecracker from LA.

Neither of us are looking for more. But I can’t get Mila or her sinful body out of my head.

When I find out our lives are tangled in more ways than one, I’m forced to choose between this new love and protecting my daughter. Family comes first, even if it means missing out on forever with the one.

 

Fresh Start is a mature romance and a standalone novella in the Country Stars Forever Series with a guaranteed HEA. After only one night, the sparks between Mila and Patrick heat up in this spicy short story featuring a silver fox and a badass executive on an unforgettable road trip.

Twelve New Year’s Eve grapes. One stranger who shouldn’t exist.

 Rae doesn’t do resolutions. She pours drinks, dodges creeps, and counts tips, not blessings. But when a midnight manifestation ritual brings a stranger named Alan into her life, everything starts glitching in ways even magic shouldn’t allow.

Alan is steady, patient, and exactly the kind of man Rae stopped believing in a long time ago. He shows up when she needs him most, says all the right things, and makes her wonder if maybe the universe is finally cutting her a break. But the more perfect things become, the more she suspects something isn’t right.

Because wishes aren’t supposed to last forever, and when the clock strikes midnight, Rae might lose the one thing she never wished for but always needed.

Perfect for fans of The Holiday Swap and spicy rom-coms with magical twists, Auld Lang Wish is a laugh-out-loud, heart-melting New Year’s novella for anyone who’s ever wanted one last chance to believe in love again.
