Last one before Christmas |

If you celebrate Christmas and like to procrastinate, you're probably running around trying to finish decorating, do some baking, and find gifts for loved ones who keep changing their Wish Lists. Or maybe that's just me.
It's been a busy couple of weeks here, with Rocky starting it off with a few days of seizures, then my husband and I both getting sick. In the midst of all that, we've been decorating, online shopping, and I've been trying to write the sequel to Santa's Baby and finish revising Carlisle Creek. Needless to say, I'm spread pretty thin. But that's normal for this time of year, at least around here.
Do you celebrate Christmas? How are your preparations coming along?

Phoebe Fox, media manager for a rock band and single mom to the surprise baby she conceived last Christmas, is spending this holiday season tracking down the Santa who got her pregnant. And if she gets to replay the single best night of her life when she finds him, well, that's even better.
Archer Fade, factory owner and sometime Santa Claus impersonator, is so focused on improving the culture at the toy factory he inherited that romance isn't on his radar, even if he can't get the runaway bride from that amazing night a year ago out of his head.
When Phoebe finds Archer (and his gorgeous model girlfriend), she leaves her hopes of a repeat rendezvous behind in favor of helping him be a dad to their son. But what happens when she finds out he's actually single and just as interested in repeating their one night as she is? And what will it mean when she learns he has a few naughty surprises of his own?

Santa's Mistletoe Playbook |
Three Christmas romances of mistletoe mayhem, where love comes gift-wrapped in chaos!
Santa's bringing more than presents this year... he's bringing complications!
YULETIDE CHAOS by LOLO PAIGE
When your past crashes in wearing reindeer antlers and a thong, your present needs an explanation and your future a sense of humor. Dr. Bryson Cooper disrupts Danica's plans for the perfect destination holiday when he fills in for another obstetrician (apparently babies don't respect holiday plans). Only problem is, it's in Alaska, and Danica reluctantly finds herself as a fish out of water. She hopes her workaholic boyfriend will propose for Christmas, but when her past collides with her present during a wild night in Anchorage, Danica has some explaining to do. When everything spirals down, Danica and Bryson discover that sometimes unexpected Christmas presents come wrapped in chaos, topped with a bow of second chances…and a dash of forgiveness.
GINGERBREAD BREAK-UP by S.C. PRINCIPALE
Pine Ridge, New York, does holidays like nowhere else. Kids have off from school on Halloween. Easter Egg hunts are epic all-night events. Every winter holiday is given almost fanatical devotion by the residents who organize parades, holiday bazaars, cookie exchanges, and more. But it's the Gingerbread Building Extravaganza Beatrice has in mind. The culinary student at NYU Pine Ridge is determined to win this year and earn an invitation to Foodie TV's Gingerbread Showdown. Even better, her partner in this year's contest is the hottest guy in the culinary program, Neal Ambrose.
FAIRY LIGHTS & WINTER NIGHTS by SOFIA AVES
Dylan Mountforth is known for his aggression on the lacrosse field as Rippton U's goalie and his playful manwhore ways in the Kingsman Allstar frat house. But when he falls-literally-for a girl from a rival college Christmas market, he's desperate to claim her…right as she runs from him on Christmas Eve. |

Lit Up by My Brother's Best Friend |
Lit Creek Book 1
When the good girl falls…
Sierra
Over a decade ago, I aimed too high when I fell for my brother’s best friend. So I settled for someone else. And then got dumped. And now I’m dangling from a fence waiting for my dream guy to rescue me. Yes, it’s all connected. And yes, it all started with a stupid game of Never Have I Ever. And yes, I’m too old for that game. But then Hunter saves me, sweeps me off of my feet, and announces he’s staying overnight to make sure I don’t have a concussion. It’ll be fine. I’m the good girl. Until he kisses me.
Hunter
I’ve always loved her. But I can’t have her because she’s got a boyfriend. Yup. She is completely off limits. But tell that to my heart. And other body parts. I’ve been aching for her for a decade. And in this small town it’s hard not to run into my best friend’s sister.
Then she calls me one night because—get this—she’s stuck in a fence.
I’m there in a heartbeat, and I’ll use any excuse to be near her. Now that she’s in my arms, it’s hard to let go. But when she tells me she’s single? Oh man, all bets are off. I’m in, and I’m about to make the most of this one night with her. And that means showing her that even good girls can get a little dirty.
Meet the hotties:
Welcome to the irresistibly quaint town of Lit Creek where the men are hot and the love is big. Loyal and protective, these men fall hard and fast.
This cozy little town has got the cinnamon rolls you need to make you sigh deeply in appreciation of some good buns. You know what I’m talking about!
Jump in and meet your next book boyfriend in these short, sweet, and spicy reads.
Instalove, romcom, no cheating, and (some might say) over the top HEAs guaranteed. Standalone steamy romance book. |

Cinnamon Roll Alphas
All she wanted was some cake. She didn’t mean to flambé his life.
Josie Ryan didn’t intend to drag the hot wedding cake baker into that teeny little fight she picked with his boss. And she definitely didn’t expect him to lose his job over it. Oops.
To make amends, she’ll just have to help the charming grump open his own bakery. (What, like it’s hard?)
Josie knows Erik Andersson craves stability and quiet, while she's three chaos raccoons in a trench coat and kick-ass heels. But she also knows that Erik needs her business savvy almost as much as she needs him to ditch his iron control, bury his hands in her hair, and kiss her until they both forget about rental agreements and gluten-free flour sources.
Just as they start exploring their chemistry outside of the kitchen, the bakery’s growing pains threaten their partnership. If Josie wants forever with Erik, she’ll have to come up with a new recipe for success—one that tastes sweet to both of them.
"Definitely one of my top 10 favorite book boyfriends of all time.” Laurie, Laurie Reads Romance
Grab this steamy opposites-attract romance about a quiet baker who saves his hottest, sweetest words for the feisty PR whiz he never saw coming. Tempting Taste is book 1 in the award-winning Cinnamon Roll Alphas series, which delivers all the playful banter, upbeat vibes, and HEAs your romance-loving heart craves. |
