THEY'RE MAKING SWEET HOLIDAY MUSICChristmas Music by Q. Marlowe is back and now available everywhere! Get it here: https://geni.us/ChristmasMusicA girl with a broken heart. A guy with a broken family. And a Christmas dream that will bring them together.
Olivia Johns has tried the real world, and failed. She had the record contract… and a boyfriend who stole that contract, along with her music.
Now she's heading home for Christmas, escaping the real world and trying to get her feet under her. ______
Connor Wheating knows a thing or two about having his feet knocked out from under him. He was on the verge of getting signed to his first record contract when his dad was diagnosed with cancer.
Now he finds himself home for the holidays… and missing the future he was polishing for himself.
But Christmas doesn't only bring snow and holly. In Arberry, North Carolina, it also brings the Annual Music Festival. The competition: fierce. The reward: a shiny new record contract with one of the biggest labels in the industry.
When Olivia and Connor find themselves in an unwilling partnership, working together—and against each other—for the same prize, the chemistry between them growing by the minute…
Christmas wishes might actually come true.
Two lost souls looking for a way out. A Christmas music contest. And an unwilling partnership that leaves them both longing for something more.
Christmas Music is a sweet small-town Christmas novella that features cowboys, hopeless romance, and a heroine willing to make the ultimate sacrifice, and is the prequel to the Southern Heroes series.
About Quinn:
Quinn Marlowe is the bestselling author of the Rossi and Southern Heroes series and a certified California girl. After studying English and film at UCLA, she decided to pursue storytelling full time. She loves red wine, cheesecake, perfect hash browns, really good punk rock, fast cars, autumn, and cooking, but she is most likely to be found spending time with her horses, snuggling her dogs, or taking orders from her small army of cats. She is a professional eye roller with a penchant for swearing like a sailor, and some of her favorite people (her nephews) are convinced she is a spy. She makes her home in San Diego with her loving husband and her prized collections of books and lipstick, neither of which ever fail to lift her spirits when she's feeling down.

Title: Bless Your Heart Series: Valentine Texas #1 Author: Lyra Parish Genre: Contemporary Romance Tropes: Small Town/Enemies to Lovers Release Date: June 13, 2023
I have three simple wishes:
Keep my houseplants alive.
Open a charming bed-and-breakfast in my small town.
Never see or speak to Beckett Valentine again. None of those things are currently possible.
When Beckett decides he’s also interested in purchasing the Horseshoe Creek Ranch, my dreams of owning a bed-and-breakfast become a nightmare. He refuses to give me what I want while playing dirty—a common theme in our rivalry. Because of him, we’re in a ridiculous bidding war for the land.
We might have hated each other since our teens, but the stakes have never been so high. And right now, I’m more determined than ever to take down my best friend’s older brother—cowboy boots and all.
Bless Your Heart is a small town, enemies to lovers, best friend’s older brother, contemporary southern romance with a guaranteed happily ever after. Each book in the Valentine Texas series is a stand-alone. Warning: this book contains tons of Southern sass, sarcasm, and lots of spice! Fade to black is not included.

🌟⭐️ NOW LIVE ⭐️🌟 | Hold On to Me by Lucia Franco
My Review I loved this story! I needed a deep southern rooted Georgia boy to feel that special thing again! I love Franco’s books! This one really got me!
The day has finally arrived! The friends to lovers romance is now available on Amazon and in Kindle Unlimited!
What you can expect -
Hold On to Me was completely rewritten from third person to first person dual POV. Significant changes were made to the plot and characters. The story is considered new.
Blurb:
I promised myself I'd never chase love.
Until I meet John.
I try to resist his Southern charm, but he works his way under my skin. He's rough around the edges, a sweet talker with a protective heart. He gave me hope when I thought all was lost.
John says I'm his other half. I believe him until a reckless night of fun alters our lives forever. His grief sends him into a downward spiral, pushing me into the arms of someone who does more harm than good.
Without a word, John disappears. He wants me back when he returns months later, but it’s complicated.
Things are different now.
I’m pregnant, and I don’t know if the baby is his.

⭐️🎵 NEW TO KINDLE UNLIMITED 🎵⭐️
With his thick southern drawl and seductive charm, Luke is the country boy everyone adores. He has his future mapped out, but his plans with Olivia are suddenly derailed when she makes a decision that blindsides him, changing the path they both envisioned.
As Luke struggles to keep everything in check during a difficult time in his life, he must put his trust in the one person who broke it to begin with. The last time they saw each other, Olivia busted his heart wide open, turning him into the man he is today.
When Olivia returns to her roots, just like Luke said she would, he is shocked for more reasons than one. Nine years have passed since they've seen each other, and when their roads collide unexpectedly, Luke can only push his worry and misgivings away for so long.
Things are different now—they are strangers—and the rope that once bound Olivia's heart to South Fork, Georgia is pulling her back in, forcing her to remember how it used to be all those years ago.

Widower's Ride by Amy Simone available for FREE on Jan. 7th & 8th on Amazon Kindle. Tomas just wants to mourn his late wife in peace, but pesky fate has a different plan... A recent widower, Tomas is struggling to adjust to his new life without his beloved wife, Kitty. Tomas is a devoted father to his two small children and works as a horse-shipper in Louisiana. Tomas vows that nothing will come between him and his memory of his beloved Kitty. That is until his daughter insists they rescue an injured dog one day. This one, seemingly benevolent gesture begins a series of events that push Tomas to come out of his shell--almost against his wishes. A whole new social world lays before him and his kids. There's just one problem. Tomas’s sister wants more of a hand raising her niece and nephew, disapproving of her brother's adventures. Tomas must stand firm. Hidden in this new circle of acquaintances is an Irish slip of a woman—Melody, his daughter’s riding teacher. Melody proves to be great with kids and refreshingly humble about her own riding abilities. Will Tomas finally open his eyes to the beauty around him or will he stay mired in his grief? #theuptownwriter #southernromance #sweetromance #sweetsouthernromance #read #freebook #romance #lousiana #acadia #author #newbook #romancewriter #bookish #readmore https://www.instagram.com/p/CJtfFHLnDYE/?igshid=x3u0fdxfhp0d

HOT NEW RELEASE
Keeping You Away by @kennedyfoxbooks is now LIVE on all retailers! A slow burn, angsty second chance romance with lots of small-town, Southern drama This is book 1 in the Tyler & Gemma duet and must be read first.
#1Click here► http://bit.ly/2Tu8vpU
I never planned on returning to Alabama, but circumstances brought me here after years of being gone. Though Lawton Ridge is my hometown, I was hesitant to go back because of her —my sister’s best friend. The last time we were together, she was eighteen, and I was a broken soldier transitioning to civilian life.
Gemma wrote to me while I was overseas and we developed a bond I hadn’t anticipated. I crushed her heart the day I left, something I’ve never forgotten. But now that her dad is my new boss, life just got way more complicated.
Too sweet, too innocent, too good for a guy like me—I should walk away again.
After serving five years in prison for something I didn’t do, I trust no one, but Gemma gradually breaks down my walls and exposes the pain I’ve hidden underneath. For her own sake, I should keep my distance, but it’s nearly impossible when I hear her sweet humming while I work and she slowly draws me back in. It’s a battle I didn’t train for, and one I’ll lose if I don’t keep my restraint—especially since she’s engaged to another man.
Pre-Order Book 2: Need You Close releasing on August 13th here: http://kennedyfoxbooks.com/tylerandgemmaduet

Man Catcher (Scarlett Ohara continuation)
Carreen looked around her room. Nothing had changed since she had left as a young girl. Her old dresses still hung in the wardrobe. She pulled out one of them. Nope, she wouldn’t be able to button up over her ample breasts now. She heard a rush of footsteps coming up the stairs.
         “CARREEN!”
         SueEllen ran across the bedroom and scooped up her baby sister.
         “Look at you!” She screamed. “You look absolutely ravishing! You look like mother!”
         Carreen laughed. ‘I can’t believe it’s been so long.”
         “Yes, it’s been a while. The boys have grown since you saw them last time in Savannah.”
         They embraced and chatted when Scarlett burst in carrying a dress.
         “Oh I see you weren’t going to invite mean Scarlett to the reunion”.
         “Of course you are invited, Scarlett.” Carreen soothed. “What’s that?”
         Scarlett held up a red silk dress. “This is my old red dress I had re tailored to fit Carreen. She’s going to wear it tonight.” Scarlett held it up for Carreen to see. The sleeves had been removed. The dress was completely off the shoulder. Carreen would only have a hope and a prayer between her bosoms and freedom at the gala.
         “She’s not wearing that, Scarlett. You’d be prancing her out as a prize mare!” SueEllen protectively argued.
         “Nonsense. This is the fashion in France.”
         “This isn’t France, Scarlett.”
         “No, but we need to let the eligible men of Georgia know that a O’Hara woman is available for marriage.”
         “Thanks for discussing this with me first, Scarlett.” Careen frowned.
         “Well, Carreen, you are already 34. You need to be thinking about a husband. You can’t live here at Tara for the rest of your life as an old maid.” She walked over to Careen and measured the dress up to her back.
         “I won’t stand for this. Carreen is not like….” SueElllen stammered.
         Scarlett looked up. “Who, SueEllen? Who is Carreen not like?”
        “It’s no secret about your reputation, Scarlett.”
         “Oh, you two, stop arguing. I’ll wear it. I have a black lace shawl and black lace gloves to wear with it. I am a grown woman and can handle myself.” She took the dress from Scarlett. “Don’t sell me off yet, Scurvy.”
         “Well….”
         “Well, what?”
         “I may have set you up already.”
         “With who?”
         “A politician.”
         Carreen and SueEllen looked at each other.
         “Who?
         “John Tyler Cooper.”
         “The Republican from Marietta?” SueEllen gasped.
         “Yes.”
         “But he’s married.”
         “Not anymore. His wife died.” Scarlett said over her shoulder as she searched through Carreen’s undergarments.
         “Why are you setting Carreen up with him?”
         “Cause” Scarlett explained.”He wants to run for Mayor of Atlanta and it would be good to have Carreen on his arm. We’d have access to higher social functions and business opportunities.”
         SueEllen shook her head. “I should have known you’d be getting something out of this.”
         “We have to think about our family, SueEllen. We always need to be aware of what we can do to make sure our children are taken care of when we are gone.”
         “Tara is the largest farm in the area and you are the wealthiest woman in Atlanta not including Rhett’s money. What more could you want?”
         “Oh SueEllen, hush. Go home and get ready for the gala. Prissy’s been cooking for three days and the servants have decorated the first floor so lovely. Let’s all just enjoy the season as a whole family.”
         SueEllen frowned and looked back at Carreen.
         “No impropriety, Scarlett.” She turned and walked out the room.
.         They watched her walk out of the room.
         “Mercy! SueEllen is such a worry wart.”
         Carreen looked at Scarlett. “She’s just protective.”
         Scarlett looked at her sister pensively. She really did favor mother more than anyone else.
         “Mr. Cooper is very handsome, Carreen. You might like him if you give him a chance.”
         Carreen smiled. “I’ll be cordial, Scarlett.”
