Painted Hearts releases July 1st!

This is a grumpy x sunshine, rivals-to-lovers, small town romance.

๐Ÿ’–

Winnie is starting over. After arriving in Indigo Lake, sheโ€™s ready for a fresh chapter - beginning with Bubbles & Brushes, the charming paint-and-sip art studio sheโ€™s always dreamed of opening.

But thereโ€™s one thing in her way.

Everett. Her gruff, no-nonsense next-door neighbor, whose whiskey bar shares a wall with Winnie.

When Winnie paints her side of the building a bright, bubblegum pink, chaos (and competition) takes hold. Not only do they share the same building - they also share the same customer base.

As the pair butt heads over everything from noise levels to paint swatches, an undeniable spark begins to smolder. But both have reasons for guarding their hearts, and Everett is harboring secrets of his own.

As their rivalry spills from business into their apartments (that are also awkwardly connected), sparks fly in this laugh-out-loud grumpy sunshine romance about two people who need therapy - but find each other instead.

Emerson (Emmy) Hartwell has waited for a spot on an NHL roster since she became a professional hockey player, and this season, sheโ€™ll finally get a chance to showcase her talents with the struggling D.C. Stars.

Maverick Miller is the best player in the league, but heโ€™s never had a winning record. Team captain and desperate to turn things around, he agrees to play nice with the fiery new left-winger even though theyโ€™re total opposites.

After a night where the tension between them reaches a tipping point and they fall in bed together, Emmy and Maverick vow it was only one time. Just once to get it out of their systems so they can play better and help their team. It doesnโ€™t mean anything. She doesnโ€™t date hockey players. Heโ€™s a notorious pl***oy who doesnโ€™t date. Period.

Exceptโ€ฆ what shouldโ€™ve been just once happens again, then again. They tell each other their friends with benefits arrangement is only for the season, but despite facing off on the ice, behind closed doors, the pair is nothing but fire.

Librarian Liv Jones has always dreamed of writing a romance novel. But sheโ€™s stuck when it comes to creating a romantic hero โ€“ sadly โ€“ lacking anyone in real life to base him on.

When her brother suggests his best friend stay in their shared flat for a few weeks, she canโ€™t believe her bad luck. Aiden Rivers is irritating and pushes all her buttons. Worst of all, heโ€™s gorgeous, has a sexy accent and reminds her of her all-time favourite character Mr Darcy.

Liv finds herself unexpectedly inspired and the leading man in her novel begins to bear an uncanny resemblance to Aiden. He can never find out though: sheโ€™d never live it down. Because Aiden can only ever be her love interest in the pages of her book โ€“ and definitely not in real lifeโ€ฆ right?!

Louie
My mother taught me one valuable lesson that Iโ€™ve used to get to where I am today. And where am I? Las Vegas.
Who am I? Well, that depends on who you are. To some, Iโ€™m the king. The judge, juror, and executioner. To others, Iโ€™m just another rich as***le who owns a few casinos.

But I own more than that. I own the strip and the streets surrounding it. I own this city, and itโ€™ll have to be wrenched from my cold, dead hands before I hand it over to anyone else.

When I spot her, I donโ€™t sense the desperation that wafts off the usual crowd. No, she has a loneliness that rivals my own, a sadness that I want to soak in, and a body made to sin with.

What was that lesson my mother taught me? Trust no one. The thing is, Charlotte is taking a wrecking ball to that lesson because every fiber of my being wants to trust this woman.

Charlotte
When you donโ€™t want to be seen, find a crowded place and blend in.

Thatโ€™s exactly why I came to Vegas. To not be seen. I figured with all the flashing lights, alcohol, drugs, peopleโ€ฆ no one would notice me.

But he did. And I donโ€™t know how to get him to unsee me. Or if I even want him to.

This city was supposed to be my sanctuary, a place to forget who I am. Or should I say who I was? A place to let go of the past. A place no one would ever think to look for me.

It was supposed to be just one weekend. But now I think it might be so much moreโ€ฆ

Iโ€™m the first to admit I was slow to get on the audiobook bandwagon, however now I love them!

I listen to audiobooks when Iโ€™m packing orders, walking, crafting and even doing houseworkโ€”it definitely makes housework more bearable.

In March I listened to The Seven Daughters of Dupree, which I purchased from Libro.fm.

When you buy your audiobooks at Libro.fm, you support a local bookshop with every purchase!

The Seven Daughters of Dupree is
a sweeping multi-generational epic following seven generations of Dupree women as they navigate love, loss, and the unyielding ties of family. I really enjoyed the audiobook and it was one of my favourite reads from March.

But Sofia is not here anymore, and all that she left me were her instructions: take care of my kids.

Not a simple task, especially when I have to open my doors to Sofiaโ€™s estranged brother.

I spent my entire life dreaming about having a family of my own, but I didnโ€™t think it would be through loss that I would find my gain.

Three brilliant children need me, and Iโ€™ll have to learn to co-parent with a bull of a man in the China shop of my life.

We are complete opposites; Iโ€™m the business first, a workaholic in the big city with a penthouse. Then thereโ€™s Alvaro Castillo, El Toro, with callouses in his hands and ink all over his skin.

Iโ€™ll need him on my side if I want the best for these kids, but my trust isnโ€™t something I give out easily.

To make things worse, El Toro has a secret that might ring the bell of defeat in all of our lives.

Now I have everything Iโ€™ve ever wanted. But at the cost of my best friendโ€™s life.
