Good morning, how are you? As we began the weekend I thought I would share romance book with you this morning, If it stays as pretty and as cool as it was last you will find me sitting outside on my balcony reading these romance books. Would you like to join me We could start our own book club.

Almost Yours

Marley Jenkins is a dedicated first-grade teacher living in Vermont, completely enamored by her students. Her boyfriend, Nick Lavoy is handsome, successful, and charming, and wasted no time sweeping Marley off her feet.

But when Nick suddenly leaves for a work trip to Ohio, Marley feels somewhat confused about where she stands on Nick’s list of priorities. He’s distracted and careless, making her doubt everything she thought she knew about him.

Fletcher Thompson is the type of guy who would do anything for his best friend, Nick. So, when Nick asks him to be there for Marley if she needs anything while he’s away, of course, he agrees. After all, Marley is his friend too.
But the truth is, Fletcher fell for Marley the same night Nick did. And since Nick swooped in and stole her attention first, Fletcher had no choice but to keep his feelings a secret.

As Marley struggles to ease the growing doubts in her mind about her relationship with Nick, she turns to Fletcher for advice. She questions if there is any truth in the future they had mapped out.

Fletcher is caught in the middle of their relationship while teetering on the edge of betraying his best friend and exposing his true feelings for the woman he has loved all along.

And when everything comes crashing down, the question remains: will there be anything left for any of them to hold on to?

Out of the Park: A Romance (The Curveball Incident Book 2)

Baseball romance with swoony chemistry and emotions, but closed-door spice level.
Trope: she’s broken/he’s got a hidden identity


He was a rookie with a bright future

Until that one pitch came along….

One game, one pitch. That’s all it took to change the course of Tommy Layton’s life forever. One minute he’s a rookie phenom burning it up in the major leagues and contending for Rookie of the Year. A split-second later, he’s on the injured list, deeply depressed, and trying to figure out how he’s going to get back everything he’s lost.

Lucy Valente understands all too well because she’s lost everything, too—her parents, her career, her money, and, most of all, her sense of hope. A chance encounter ignites a fire for both of them, but they’re stuck in the lowest valleys of their lives, so the timing couldn’t be worse. Lucy can’t seem to embrace the love and happiness she knows Tommy represents. And while he wants to give her the space she needs, he also realizes their chance to be together is quickly disappearing. How can they find their happily-ever-after when it feels like their happily-right-now is impossible?

This book can be read as a standalone, but the reading experience would be enhanced by reading Curveball: A Love Story first, as the stories intertwine.

Readers who want stories that pack an emotional punch, but who love HEAs that couples truly earn, will love this book!
