Two people, one flat. Can they learn to share the space and get along? Or will the sparks between them lead to romance?

Author Jennifer Raines' Choosing Family series is about people who may not be real family but have become one. In AN ACCIDENTAL FLATMATE, Casildo and Beatriz are needing some space from their families as they reevaluate their futures. These two find ways to support each other, just like a family. 

AN ACCIDENTAL FLATMATE is an emotional read filled with realistic relationships and romance. All of Jennifer Raines' books feature a deep message and happily ever after. Now up for preorder, AN ACCIDENTAL FLATMATE releases on July 8th.

Blurb:
Join award winning author Jennifer Raines in this story combining heat with heart, as two gentle souls find a champion in each other until their love is threatened by promises they made.

With her father injured at work, Beatriz Gomez willingly shoulders the financial responsibility for her family. Now, bills are mounting, a colleague stole her ideas to win the promotion she desperately needs, and her sisters blame her for everything. Bea needs time out, so moves into her best friend’s temporarily empty apartment. Then Casildo, a professional acquaintance, walks in the door. He’s outraged on her behalf, and that’s … a lovely surprise. But Beatriz has promised to go home. 

Casildo Hariri knows this is his last chance. He’s earmarked every second and every cent in the next few months to launching his long-dreamed of textile design company. So, he doesn’t have time for the luscious, talented, unavailable Beatriz who’s in residence at the apartment he thought was empty. Except she’s been wronged. Someone needs to encourage her to rebel, and he’s on the spot. After all, the apartment has two bedrooms, although it doesn’t take long to discover one is more than enough. To his secret delight, Beatriz champions his dreams. That’s before she detonates them by telling him why she has to go home.
​
When Beatriz is cheated out of a job she deserves, Casildo encourages her to rebel, until she breaks the rules by breaking his heart. Can they find a way together while pursuing separate dreams?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Australian Jennifer Raines writes contemporary romances set mainly, but not exclusively, in Australia – think Malta, Finland, New Zealand or ? A dreamer and an optimist, her stories are a delicious cocktail of mutual respect, passion and loyalty because she still believes in happily-ever-afters.
​
Jennifer fell in love with romance as a teenager. Starting with historical romance. Everything in the school library and then a treasured collection of Georgette Heyer, hard copies, paperbacks and ebooks. Comfort food, she calls them, like Vegemite toast, for those times when she feels low. Her library of comfort food has grown over the years but Georgette Heyer was an early star, under the blankets after lights out using a torch.

Jennifer is a member of Romance Writers of Australia. Three times a finalist in the Emerald competition, including in 2017 (Common Cause, renamed Lela’s Choice), 2018 (Taylor’s Law) and 2022 (Quinn, by Design – Choosing Family Book 2). She’s a member of Romance Writers of New Zealand, winning the Pacific Hearts competition twice, including in 2019 with Grace Under Fire, the sequel to Taylor’s Law. She’s also a member of Romance Writers of America and has been a finalist in chapter competitions in 2019, 2020 and 2021 (Taylor’s Law). Jennifer won the contemporary romance section in the 2020 Orange Rose Contest for Planting Hope and was second overall. While rarely entering them these days, Jennifer values competitions for the constructive, honest, not always comfortable feedback they provide.

In 2023 Jennifer placed second in the Romance Writers of New Zealand Koru Best First Book with Taylor’s Law.

Jennifer loves those days when words flow and the joy of writing makes the hard slog worthwhile. She’s always made up stories about strangers in the street, in a café or strolling through an airport terminal; finding inspiration in snippets of conversations, news items and the sheer puzzle of human interactions.

Jennifer lives in inner-city Sydney, Australia, with the requisite number of partners (1) and animals (2). Her desk overlooks a park which nourishes her soul when she raises her head from her keyboard. She gets some of her best ideas during long yin yoga poses or walking—including around the block. While Jennifer adores historical romance, she chose to write contemporary because she thought (wrongly) it needed less research while she was holding down a full-time job.

DREAM OF YOUR FUTURE #NEWROMANCE #NEWRELEASE #WEDDINGPLANNING

5/5/2025

 
Picture
Dare to dream... close your eyes and imagine who brings a smile to your face. Is it your children? A parent? A friend? or is it the one person who loves you with all your heart? Many of us have at least one person we would walk through fire for. They are the person of our heart but they may not have been the person we imagined we'd end up with.  Maybe you had to wait longer to find them or maybe you haven't even found them yet and are still dreaming. 

Authors dream of their characters and their stories. We see them in our mind's eye and even then sometimes they don't do what we think that they will. They go off on their own. They find a new partner, a new romance. In Sydney Scott's latest release- PLANNING ON HAPPILY EVER AFTER- her heroine dreams of her wedding and her husband. She knows what she wants but fate has different plans. 

Do you love small town romances? Opposite attract stories? PLANNING ON HAPPILY EVER AFTER is both of those and so much more! This romance will have you thinking about your own dream person and your dream wedding. While PLANNING ON HAPPILY EVER AFTER is the second book in the Sunset Cove series and features some of the characters from book one, it can be read as a standalone. But two books make it more wonderful! Get your copy today!

Blurb:
Return to Sunset Cove…where small town romance and family responsibilities collide. Can a wedding planner create her own perfect romance?

Holly Baker has spent most of her life obsessed with love and finding her very own happily ever after. The perpetually optimistic wedding planner always thought she would end up with someone exactly like her: cheery and always looking for the silver lining in the storm clouds. Little did Holly know that she would literally run into one of those storm clouds in the form of Ben, her newest client’s son.

Ben Williams has always shied away from socializing, preferring to stay in the comfort of his home and design video games. When his mother asks him to help her plan her wedding, he can’t say no to the one person who has always been there for him. Fortunately, the beautiful, sunny wedding planner he can’t stop thinking about not only makes socializing easy, but also makes it something he looks forward to.

As Holly and Ben get acquainted, the two are drawn to each other more and more. Can a perpetually optimistic lover of love convince a grumpy game designer to give their relationship a shot, or will Ben decide that it’s game over before they even begin?
 
If you love The Sweetheart Fix by Miranda Liasson or The Bluff by Emma St. Claire, you’ll fall for Holly and Ben in Planning on Happily Ever After as they find love despite their differences. Author Sydney Scott weaves a romance sure to get the small-town gossips whispering. Snuggle in to read today!

EXCERPT:
“Holy shit,” Holly whispered to herself, though by the slight widening of Ben’s hypnotic gray eyes, he heard her too.

She swallowed thickly, a strange lump of surprise, confusion, and longing lodged in her throat. Trish’s son was grumpy-no-sweets guy, the same guy she had been kind of obsessing over the last couple of weeks. Holly didn’t think she would run into him again, yet here he was. The universe did have a strange sense of humor, giving her yet another chance to open herself up to a new possibility.
​
Determined to fully take advantage this time and not take no for an answer, Holly took a moment to appreciate the man before her. His athletic frame was housed in a navy sweater and dark jeans that hugged his muscles beautifully, his hair was perfectly styled just like the last two times they’d encountered one another, but this time he wasn’t scowling. He looked as surprised as she did, but even with that stunned expression, he still looked damn good. Holly took another long look before glancing over at Trish, balking at the woman’s impish smile. Oh god, how long have I been staring at him?

Holly shook her head and tried to get back into professional mode, wiping her hand on her jeans as subtly as possible to remove the sweat that had formed there e, then offered it to him. “Nice to meet you, Ben.”

Hesitantly, he grabbed her hand and pumped her arm firmly but with more care than she would have expected from a stranger. Ben had a strong grip and his hand was warm despite his having just come in from the cooler weather outside. Does he feel the same tingling on his skin that I feel on mine? Is this normal?

EXCERPT:
A cluster of fireworks popped overhead, building to the show’s climax. Whitney jumped in Trevor’s arms when a silver shimmer ball exploded overhead, sending metallic confetti fluttering to earth. “I’ve got you,” he whispered into her ear, shamelessly sniffing the lilac of her perfume.
​
“I know you do,” she said, wiggling closer still. If she kept this up, he was about to have a very not-PG issue spring up.

“This is my favorite fireworks show of my whole life,” he said, drawing her attention from the sky.

“But it’s not over?” She raised an eyebrow, her eyes sparkling.

“Tonight is the best because you’re here. I was thinking about it, on the walk out. We used to be here at the same time, maybe sitting just feet apart, but we never found each other.”

Whitney’s face softened, and she slowly spun in his arms so they were facing each other, her legs tucked under herself. “I thought of that, too.” She reached out and cupped his cheek, smoothing over his stubble with her thumb, finally poking his chin divot. “It’s kind of magic, isn’t it? Finding each other after all these years of circling.”

“It kind of feels like fate,” he agreed.

A GIFT FROM A BROTHER- #HOTHEAD #NEWRELEASE

4/14/2025

 
Picture
What kind of gifts do you get from your siblings? My sisters and I stopped exchanging gifts years ago. At this point in our lives, we have what we want. In HOTHEAD, Isobel Reed's latest release, the hero's brother sends him a girl. Not really but it's a great story.  Luke's brother passed away over a year ago, but before he died, he asked Bella to reach out to his brother. Now that's a gift! Again, not really. Luke wasn't aware that his brother had died, so the beautiful woman telling him the news was a surprise. This whole event sets off the relationship between Luke, the hot fireman and Bella, the filmmaker. 

Author Isobel Reed's witty dialogues and charismatic characters will have you wanting to read the book again and again. And while you are falling for Luke, don't miss the other studly firemen in the Love Burns Series.  Now available in Ebook and Print- HOTHEAD makes the perfect addition to your keeper shelf!

Blurb:
When a sexy fireman and a sassy filmmaker’s worlds collide, can they stand still long enough to let love ignite, or will their instinct to run keep them from the one thing worth fighting for?

Luke Cappelli is the ultimate bachelor. He’s never stuck around longer than one night, and no woman has ever tempted him to. Until Bella. With a face that rivaled an angel’s and a mouth that could make a sinner blush, it was like she was created especially for him. Which is why committing to a few weeks of fun felt easy. But when it came time for her to leave, Luke realized letting her go wasn’t just hard—it was impossible.

Bella had one job. Deliver a letter: that’s it. Easy. She’d be in and out of Woodvalley Pines faster than you could say “howdy”. Well, that was the plan anyway. Until she came face to face with broody firefighter, Luke Cappelli. With a sarcastic remark for every occasion and enough red flags to fill a parade, the man had heartbreaker written all over him. It didn’t matter, though, because their time together had an expiry date, which was for the best. Wasn’t it?

Fans of Not the Marrying Kind by Kathryn Nolan or Hot in Here by Sophie Renwick will be enthralled by Isobel Reed’s sassy romances with witty dialogue and swoon-worthy happily-ever-afters. Grab a tall glass of water, find a cozy spot, and dive into HOTHEAD—a romance too sizzling to put down!


EXCERPT:Collapsing into the bottom bunk, he let his head drop into his hands. Marco couldn’t have been more than a few years older than him. Late thirties were no age to die. What the hell happened?


Maybe you should have read the letter and found out, dumbass. Or better yet, ask the fucking angel outside.


Speaking of. Just a second later, the door swung open, causing his head to shoot up.


Okay. Maybe she’s not outside anymore.


“You always walk away from people mid-conversation, Luke … or am I special?” she scolded.


She was special all right. “You always walk into rooms with big ass Do Not Enter signs on them … or am I just lucky?”


A genuine sigh left those sweet red lips, enough to make him regret snapping back. “Look, I get this is hard for you. Believe it or not, I understand. My family are as dysfunctional as they come. Think the Lohans … on meth. So, trust me, I get it.”


Seriously, who the hell is this girl?


Rising from the bed, his feet were moving toward her before his brain had a chance to catch up. Only fully registering when nerve endings began lighting up as he sucked down more berries. 


Before he knew it, he’d invaded her space. Personal bubble officially popped as his head bowed and their mouths lined up. All it would take was one small dip and he’d know for sure if those lips tasted as sweet as the woman who owned them smelled.


“Why are you here, Bella?”


He noticed her breath quicken. “Marco asked me to come.” She rushed out. “To give you the letter and …”


“And what?”


“And h-he wanted me to stick around for a while.”


He ignored the hammering of his heart at her declaration. His body couldn’t be trusted.


“And why would he want you to stick around?”


“Are you going to take the letter?”


“You always answer questions with questions?”


Luke felt her breath warm his skin and found himself wishing away his stubble. He wanted to feel her sink into every inch of him.


Yeah. That’s normal.


“Is this the proximity you conduct all your conversations?” was her reply.


It looked like he’d met a fellow smartass. The first one to drag a smile out of him.
​


This chick is something else.

Isobel was born and raised in London. While she’s a city girl at heart, she loves daydreaming about running away to a charming small town—though she’s not entirely sure her husband and son would share her enthusiasm for the move.

​
Known for her witty dialogue and swoon-worthy small-town heroes, Isobel signed with Inkspell Publishing in 2021. The following year, she released Love Tools, the first book in her four-book Bluestone Series.

The hero- Mick- is working undercover to find corruption at a local school when he finds that a co-worker, Kelly, is a young woman he previously had a negative encounter with. Now she's all grown up and holding a grudge. Will the two of them put aside the problem of the past to find out who is sabotaging the school?? 

A JUST MAN is a part of the Choosing Family series but can be read as a standalone. It features complex characters who find that the world isn't all black and white...there are shades of gray.  Don't miss this emotionally charged book!

Blurb:
When past and present collide, a passionate attraction detonates in this enemies to lovers romance from award winning author, Jennifer Raines. Grab a copy today!

No matter where you run, the past will find you…
Kelly needs to enhance her resume. Why else would she accept a placement in Tullamore facing her phobia about country towns? Years ago, a rookie cop humiliated her during an illegal strip search. Problem is, that former cop is now the deputy principal of her new high school and her boss. Sharing a house, a commute, and now an investigation to unravel a series of disasters that look like sabotage, Kelly takes the previously unthinkable step from enemies to allies to lovers.

Taking a job as deputy principal to uncover suspected corruption at the school, Mick plans to use the appointment as a stepping stone to principal of his own school. Then Kelly, his biggest mistake in his short time on the force, walks through his door. Given the chance to make amends brings peace for both, until Kelly is caught in the crosshairs of his investigation. Protecting her is his only goal.
 
Jennifer’s books have elements of Emily Henry, where characters are the result of layer upon layer of experiences and emotions, where self-doubt becomes our wound. Jennifer draws on a long history of romance writers where passion flares and love conquers loneliness, distrust and fear.

EXCERPT:
Kelly stood, waiting for her two friends to finish weaving their way through packed tables to the one she’d reserved. A celebration called for their favourite bistro.


“I’ve ordered champagne. Bella’s sprung for it.” Bella was Arabella Steele, adoptive parent and fairy godmother to Kelly Steele, previously Kelly Manners.


Although Kelly was also prepared to award sainthood to Lahn Nguyen, the social worker who hadn’t turned her back when Kelly had slunk back into Sydney after her nightmare in Hay almost two decades ago. Lahn had taken her to a care home and a bedroom, which she’d shared with two other “unattached” kids. Lucy—Liùsaidh—McTavish and Clem—Clementine—Delgado had become her closest friends.


“You got the job.” Lucy tightened her hold before stepping back. Lucy’s mother had died, and the ten-year-old had been parked at the home while authorities searched for any family who might take her. Her grandparents had stepped in. “Congratulations.”


“I’ve been ‘acting’ in the job a few months.” Kelly smiled. “But, yeah, it’s been confirmed.”


“Move aside, Lucy.” Clem nudged Lucy out of the way with her hip and took her place, dancing a little on the spot. Clem had landed foster parents who’d stuck. “Go, girl. I knew you’d get it.”


“You’re both way more confident than I was.” Kelly sank into her seat.


“But you’re pleased?” Lucy dropped beside her.


“Over the moon.” Kelly grinned. “I love the idea of combining school and community libraries. They make sense in small country towns. Plus, they’re a better use of public resources.”


“But the job’s based in Sydney. You’re the NSW Education Department’s state-wide coordinator for school community libraries. You advise, you suggest, you research models to improve school library services across NSW, right? You just visit sites occasionally?” An edge of concern entered Clem’s voice.


“Mostly.”


A waiter appeared at Kelly’s elbow, champagne bottle in hand, momentarily pausing their conversation. The cork popped, and he filled three glass flutes. Kelly saw Lucy signal Clem to zip it while the waiter hovered and prepared herself for the cross-examination. They loved her, so were entitled.


“Don’t you just love champagne?” Kelly searched for the right words in her glass. “The pop of the cork, the bubbles tumbling into the crystal flute, the scent of the effervescence.”


“You can smell the effervescence?” Clem drawled.


“Can’t you?” Kelly offered a question for a question, a time-honoured way of avoiding difficult subjects. “Thank you.” She smiled, and the waiter retreated.


“What does ‘mostly’ mean?” Lucy barely waited until he was out of earshot.


“Here’s to new opportunities.” Kelly raised her glass. Her friends did the same.


“New opportunities.” Lucy clinked her glass against Kelly’s.


“Add ‘new’ to ‘mostly,’ and I want to know what this opportunity is.” Clem wouldn’t be distracted.

Return to small town woodvalley pines...where the firemen are swoon-worthy #coverreveal #inkspellpublishing #isobelreed

3/11/2025

 
Picture
Woodvalley Pines is just like all other small towns, except for the hunky fire department. These guys are ripped and are all single. Best of all, they are truly good heroes. In Isobel Reed's latest-HOTHEAD- we meet another fireman who is determined to keep the girl he loves... at any cost. 

This caveman is sure to work his way into your heart as he sets out to keep a filmmaker  from leaving after she steals his heart. HOTHEAD is a fun read filled with witty dialogue and engaging characters. Don't Miss your chance to grab this book for yourself! HOTHEAD releases on April 15th. And be sure to catch up on all the action in Woodvalley Pines while you are waiting!

Blurb:
When a sexy fireman and a sassy filmmaker’s worlds collide, can they stand still long enough to let love ignite, or will their instinct to run keep them from the one thing worth fighting for?

Luke Cappelli is the ultimate bachelor. He’s never stuck around longer than one night, and no woman has ever tempted him to. Until Bella. With a face that rivaled an angel’s and a mouth that could make a sinner blush, it was like she was created especially for him. Which is why committing to a few weeks of fun felt easy. But when it came time for her to leave, Luke realized letting her go wasn’t just hard—it was impossible.

Bella had one job. Deliver a letter: that’s it. Easy. She’d be in and out of Woodvalley Pines faster than you could say “howdy”. Well, that was the plan anyway. Until she came face to face with broody firefighter, Luke Cappelli. With a sarcastic remark for every occasion and enough red flags to fill a parade, the man had heartbreaker written all over him. It didn’t matter, though, because their time together had an expiry date, which was for the best. Wasn’t it?
​
Fans of Not the Marrying Kind by Kathryn Nolan or Hot in Here by Sophie Renwick will be enthralled by Isobel Reed’s sassy romances with witty dialogue and swoon-worthy happily-ever-afters. Grab a tall glass of water, find a cozy spot, and dive into HOTHEAD—a romance too sizzling to put down!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR-
Isobel was born and raised in London. While she’s a city girl at heart, she loves daydreaming about running away to a charming small town—though she’s not entirely sure her husband and son would share her enthusiasm for the move. When she’s not writing small-town romantic comedies or growing unhealthily attached to the characters in her books, you can find her reading, chasing after her very active toddler, or attempting to channel her inner domestic goddess in the kitchen (with varying degrees of success).
​
Known for her witty dialogue and swoon-worthy small-town heroes, Isobel signed with Inkspell Publishing in 2021. The following year, she released Love Tools, the first book in her four-book Bluestone Series. In early 2024, she launched Toasted, the debut novel of her seven-book Love Burns Series, which will roll out over the next year.

MONEY CAN FIX MANY PROBLEMS... BUT IT CAN BRING MORE...

2/24/2025

 
Picture
Money can solve a lot of problems. It helps with basic needs and provides security. But sometimes it comes with more problems, which is the case for Conor Monroe. The money he wants belonged to the crime bosses and when he gets his hands on it...they put a price on his head. 

Now it's Conor and Julia trying to keep one step ahead of the hired muscle who has never lost when he's on a hit. He's always gotten his man or woman. Conor and Julia don't stand a chance.

Find out in this page turning romantic suspense by author Jules Adrienn, available now in ebook and print. 

Blurb:
Conor Monroe wants more out of life than a broken family and penny-ante robberies. Julia Terranova is running from an old life, trying to stay one step ahead of her abusive ex. Together they might find an answer to their problems. But when Conor hears about the local crime lords’ next heist—$400,000 in gold—he overreaches. The result is a contract on his life and a new face in town, Joe Cracker Jones. Cracker is an unstoppable force who kills his targets in hand-to-hand combat. But to collect his payday, Cracker has to find Conor. And when terrorizing Conor’s family and friends doesn’t work, he targets the one person Conor can’t ignore—Julia.

Conor’s only strategy is to buy time. One day, one hour, one moment at a time, desperate to hold off the roar of victory that signals the end for every man Cracker fights.

But maybe this time the end can be a new beginning--if Conor plays this just right…

It’s gonna be a showdown.
 
Readers who like stories that combine a bit of romance with danger like The Town by Chuck Hogan; and Persuader by Lee Child will enjoy Nest of Thieves.

EXCERPT:
Conor Monroe,
​
An old fella by the name of Mr. Duck has asked me to kill you. I’m guessing it has something to do with you giving him a couple black eyes and a fat lip. He thinks an awful lot of himself, which is good enough reason for him to take a whipping from you, but business is business, and my business is taking you out. In addition to being honest, you’ll be pleased to know that I’m a man of honor and will provide you with a fair fight. I will not shoot you, cut you, or try to kill you in any other manner than a hand to hand fight. If you walk out alive, good for you. If you don’t, I get paid, which is good for me. Seeing as how we both have skin in the game, we shouldn’t beat around the bush. In order to speed the process, I’m asking you to visit any local bar at your earliest convenience and tell the bartender you would like them to call me, Joe Cracker Jones. I will pick you up and take you to a suitable location where we can fight until one of us slips away to our everlasting reward. I urge you to be clear of mind when I pick you up, as you will need to have all your faculties when you face me. There is nothing I hate worse than a sloppy fighter, and I will make you pay dearly should you indulge yourself with alcohol or drugs before we are formally introduced. Of course, I know it’s normal for a man to determine that a fight of this kind is less than ideal. A man may even believe he can somehow avoid the issue. I urge you to not travel this path, as I have begun checking around to locate your friends, family, and associates. I will also be putting your photo into the hands of quite a few people in town. Mark my words, I will find you. I will also be back in this apartment from time to time, checking to see if you have read this note. I will know if you have been here, and every minute you are not coming to me is another minute that I will be coming to you. That will make me unhappy. If you make me find you, people you know and love will be killed. Don’t make me do that. Be a man, meet me face-to-face, and let’s take care of our business as quickly as possible.
 
Have a blessed day,
Joe Cracker Jones
