HAPPY MONDAY, HAPPY START OF A NEW WEEK & HAPPY IT’S BACK TO REAL LIFE FOR ME… My vacation is over, my family is gone, and it’s back to the daily grind. 😉 Luckily, my daily grind is a nice life, so I’m good, however…

Three things:

1.) *sigh* my mom has gone back home. I miss her like crazy already. Especially when I dropped her off at the airport. It took everything I had not to cry. I succeeded, and then my husband took me out and kept me busy to see my mind off of what was missing in my life already. It was an incredible week. Filled with living the Florida lifestyle, going to beaches, swimming, shopping and eating THE BEST seafood around. read more

Reader Question – The book where she comes home for a funeral and her brother is dating her bully…

July 22, 2026 By Maryse 2 Comments

Lucy needs our book help… BIG TIME!! Not a ton of detail but maybe just enough to spark someone’s memory?

She asks:

Help finding a book

FMC and MMC have known each other a long time but she leaves and avoids coming home because she’s in love with him and there are issues.

She does finally come home though, I think for a funeral maybe.

I for sure know when she comes back, she finds out her brother is dating a girl that was mean to her in HS.

I’m all over the place but it’s been 2 days and I want to read this again so badly. read more

Latest Romance Book Releases – 07-21-2026

HAPPY TUESDAY & HAPPY NEW RELEASE DAY!!! I have a bunch of new books that just went live (but quite a few bargain finds too)! I’m heading to the beach with my mommy today to have breakfast with our toes in the sand, and then to stroll along the sandy shore and look for shells and just take in the peace that the ocean brings.

P.S. My mom is reading while I work on this post (“The Exchange” by John Grisham and she’s already loving it. She LOVES that author and is shocked that I haven’t read anything from him. I told her I’m not really into legal thrillers, and she said YOU MUST READ HIM!! You will love it. Very relatable, realistic stories and he sucks you right in from the start. Well, okay then. She’s leaving me her book so I can read it when she’s done. read more

Congratulations on publishing your book! Your book deserves to reach the right readers, spark curiosity, and leave a lasting impression. But with so many books competing for attention, how can you make yours stand out, attract potential readers, and encourage more people to discover your story? A captivating book trailer can help make that happen. Imagine turning your book into a short, engaging video that brings your story to life, highlights its most intriguing elements, and gives readers a reason to want to know more. A well-crafted book trailer can help increase your book’s visibility, build excitement, and encourage potential readers to explore it further. We help authors create professional book trailers designed to capture attention, generate interest, and connect their stories with the right audience. I’d love to show you a few examples and share how a book trailer could help showcase your book. Would you be open to seeing some examples?
