Can a hot paramedic resuscitate this mail woman’s flatlining spirit of adventure? Gwen Elsmere fell in love with Sebastian Kirkwood when she was sixteen, but a dead frog stole her chance to land the guy of her daydreams. Ten years later, when Gwen makes a desperate 9-1-1 call, Sebastian re-enters her life as the first paramedic on the scene. Unfortunately, she’s smeared in blood, and he’s engaged to another woman. The awkward rescue is far from the passionate reunion she’d secretly hoped for. Still, Gwen’s brief transformation from postal worker to neighborhood hero has her reevaluating her cautious nature. If she can save a woman’s life, why can’t she change her own? As Gwen challenges herself with adventures, big and small, she discovers an unlikely sidekick in her former crush. Sebastian reveals glimpses of the goofy teenager who first made her swoon, but there are shadows behind his eyes she wants to shine a light on. When Gwen discovers the sexy EMT is not as spoken for as everyone in Green Valley believes, she dares to hope for a second chance to risk her heart. But even as a chemist cat, drag queens, and glitter beards reward her new outgoing nature, secrets, pain, and fear threaten to snuff out her courageous spirit. Gwen will have to decide if Sebastian and she are better late than never or better never together. ‘Letter Late Than Never’ is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone.

A sapphic opposites-attract romance with Mazey Edding's signature sparkling voice! Winning the lottery has ruined Opal Devlin's’s life. After quitting her dead-end job where she’d earned minimum wage and even less respect, she’s bombarded by people knocking at her door for a handout the second they found out her bank account was overflowing with cash. And Opal can’t seem to stop saying yes. With her tender heart thoroughly abused, Opal decides to protect herself by any means necessary, which to her translates to putting almost all her new money to buying a failing flower farm in Asheville, North Carolina to let the flowers live out their plant destiny while she uses the cabin on the property to start her painting business. But her plans for isolation and self-preservation go hopelessly awry when an angry (albeit gorgeous) Pepper Smith is waiting for her at her new farm. Pepper states she’s the rightful owner of Thistle and Bloom Farms, and isn’t moving out. The unlikely pair strike up an agreement of co-habitation, and butt-heads at every turn. Can these opposites both live out their dreams and plant roots? Or will their combustible arguing (and growing attraction) burn the whole place down?

From New York Times Bestselling author, Sadie Kincaid comes a contemporary friends to lovers romance. Maddox James is the entire package. Soulful, deep, hotter than the fiery pits of hell. He’s also my best friend, and did I mention, he’s celibate? Two years ago, we were strangers sharing sunsets, secrets, and a connection neither of us could ignore. For one perfect night, I thought something extraordinary was beginning—until he rejected me without explanation, leaving me feeling humiliated. Now, fate has thrown us together again in the worst possible way: he’s my boss’s younger brother. Still maddeningly handsome, endlessly compassionate, and impossible to ignore. The worst part? He’s impossible to dislike too. Beneath the sexy confident smiles and effortless charm is someone quieter than I remember, someone carrying shadows I don’t understand. And when he finally tells me the truth, that rejecting me had nothing to do with him not wanting me—it changes everything. Somewhere between late-night conversations, daily laughter and sharing our dreams, he becomes my best friend. Which would be fine if I wasn’t falling for him all over again. Because friendship starts to feel dangerously small when every touch lingers too long, every look feels like a confession, and the man who once swore off intimacy begins breaking every rule he made for himself. But love doesn’t erase the past. And when the darkest parts of our lives come back to claim us, we’ll have to decide if what we have is strong enough to survive the things that almost destroyed us both. MADE is a slow-burn, emotional romance about healing, forgiveness, and discovering that love is worth risking everything for.
