OHHH THIS TROPE IS MY CATNIP!!! Unrequited love and/or arranged marriage and all of the angst and turmoil that comes with it. It’s for me!!! In books. Always only in books. 😂

P.S. BOOK #3 (The Wrong Fiancée) IS LIVE!!!!!

Jamie: Hi Maryse, have you read any books by Maya Alden?  She writes books with A LOT of angst, drama and a rollercoaster ride of emotions that will keep you hooked.  Golden Knights, A Modern Vintage Romance and Savannah’s Best series are my favorites.

Kathy: Maya Alden’s new one, The Wrong Fiancée release’s tomorrow. Someone mentioned this author on your page and I started to read her and I binge read most of her series. Yes, the man always does something horrible to the female lead but eventually he makes it up to her! read more

Julianne (from our Facebook crew) needs our book help! GAHHHHHH!!! I am having a love/hate moment with this question ’cause I read the spoiler (HOLY MOLY WHAT A TWIST!!) and I hate knowing what happens BUT… it also makes me want to read this book SO bad.

She asks:

Hi Maryse!

I am DESPERATELY trying to find this title and author!

The book where a nurse working the emergency department and a cop/paramedic/firefighter drops by with a patient in tow. He flirts with her, I think, but she brushes it off. read more

Sadie Kincaid – Manhattan Ruthless Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

BOOK #2 JUST WENT LIVE & IT’S #3 ON ALL OF AMAZON KINDLE RIGHT NOW!! A series of standalone billionaire romances (but probably way more fun to read ’em in order). 😃

About book #1

A Standalone Billionaire, Marriage of Convenience Romance.

You want to know the secret to everlasting happiness?  Never fall in love. That was the wisdom my father imparted to us James boys after our mom died, and it’s a piece of advice that’s served me well.

Until dear old Dad asks me for a favor over Sunday brunch. No big deal, right? I love making my old man happy. Except this “favor” is a lot more complicated than picking up his dry cleaning. Dad wants me to marry and provide a few heirs for the James empire, and he’s even done me the courtesy of handpicking my bride-to-be. Lucky me. read more

Reader Question – The book where the famous drummer arranged for Bryan Adams to sing to her…

Andrea is looking for this one! Hrmmm… I feel like I’ve read this one back in my early indie days. But back then, I read SOOOOO many rock star romances that they are all intermingling in my head now.

The one that I’m thinking of is Mal from Kylie Scott’s Stage Dive series. That was my FAVORITE book in the series. P.S. Here’s my 5-STAR review of that one. 😊

Too many years have passed… so I really don’t know, 😂 but maybe someone knows this one specifically. read more
