Kelli’s reader question has already been solved, but I had to post it anyway, ’cause we went CRAZY for this series (back in my early indie romance days).

HOLY MOLY Brian (from book #2) was the love of my book life. This book was intense, and heartache-y and angsty and so romantically exciting. Butterflies in my belly? This one did just that!

She asked:

Kelli: I’m trying to remember the name and author of a book series.

The first one has a man and woman who’re friends and their spouses are having an affair. They go on his would be honeymoon and end up together. read more

Hello everyone, I promised you a big announcement tonight, and here it is:
