#SwoonWorthy Virtual Book Club & Podcast

Join host Krista Harper and special guest, Suzanne Ridolfi as they discuss June's book, Only Once. June Book Selection:Only OnceBy Ashley MunozBreaking news: Hollywood's biggest heartthrob, Ryan Prince, was caught vacationing in his hometown, but who's the mystery girl?No, I hadn't heard that Ryan Prince was staying at the very resort I had just started working at.If I had, maybe I would have called in sick.On second thought, maybe I wouldn't have, because I really needed that paycheck. Being a single mother and having a lapse in child support had made me that desperate.Still, I would have rather avoided the circus that rolled into Hawk Tail Resort and the man who sauntered in with it.All these years later and he was still that same gorgeous football player I left behind in college.Except now he wasn't gracing the gridiron unless it was for a movie role.I assumed he wouldn't even recognize me, not with the actress on his arm and the crowd pressing in around him.Ryan Prince didn't just recognize me; the angry tilt of those lips on that too perfect face told me he remembered exactly what I did when I left.I thought maybe this was a gift, a way to put the past to rest…but the look on his face told me he had plans to dig up everything that was unfinished between us.The summer was about to end, but it felt like my penance for the last decade was about to begin.For more information on our author, check out Ashely Munoz at www.ashleymunozbooks.comA very special thank you to our lovely episode sponsors, Kat Lewis and her book, Rogue Defender and EL Koslo and her book, Foreplay on Words.Support the show (https://www.kristaharperwrites.com/newsletters)

Forest and her book, Unwanted Inheritance (Santos "Sonny" Ferrari Story Book 1).My intentions were to have a summer of fun with my twin brother before embarking on creating my own legitimate empire separate from the criminal enterprises of my family. Everything was going as planned until I met two women. One would pull me into the seedy world I had always avoided. She brought summer lust along with street racing, assaults and murder. The other woman gave me glimpses of the life I wanted in the light with passion and tenderness. When my actions began to spiral us all into a dark vortex, I realized that fate made the final choies for my future.   Support the show (https://www.kristaharperwrites.com/newsletters)
