Smartypants Romance

Susannah Nix

Dawn Botstein is doing just fine after her divorce, thank you very much. She’s got her yarn store to run, her house to herself for the first time in her life, and no use for men anymore. That is, she didn’t until the hottie silver fox who walks into her store turns out to be her old high-school crush—the guy who rejected her thirty years ago. No way is she going to lose her head over him this time, no matter how well he wears that salt-and-pepper lumberjack beard. Okay, so he’s the opposite of her ex in every way, and his attention gives her a thrill she thought she’d never feel again. But she’s not risking her heart again. Mike Pilota is having a midlife crisis. But instead of buying a red sports car he can’t afford and dressing like a twenty-five-year-old who’s time-traveled from the 1990s, he quit his job after his second divorce to move closer to his recently widowed mother. He didn’t expect to run into Dawn again, but as soon as he lays eyes on her he’s utterly smitten. So he sets out to make up for past mistakes and prove he can be the kind of man she deserves. A full-length contemporary romance, Mad About Ewe can be listened to as a standalone novel, but it is also the first book in the Common Threads series, set in the Seduction in the City World and the Penny Reid Book Universe.

Before Hannah was a 9-5 working, dinner making, homebody, she was Ashton James: a paparazzi-stalked pop star with more enemies than friends. These days she has one priority: keeping her sister safe and away from the public eye. Hannah was doing a great job, until the pesky little brother of an ex-fling discovers where she is, and wants her help launching his career. Now she has to trust Johnny—whom she betrayed in more ways than one—to protect her whereabouts. Johnny may have an infuriating moral compass and the timing of a storybook hero, but is he immune to the temptation of revenge? Johnny’s focus has always been his music business, and a bad influence like Hannah is the last thing he needs at work, or around his brother. But some things are too powerful to be stopped. For someone like Hannah, second chances—in life and in true love—don’t exist. She didn’t think so, at least. Johnny is about to prove her wrong, and being wrong has never felt so right. 'Key Change' is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone. Book #3 in the Common Threads series, Seduction in the City World, Penny Reid Book Universe.

Meet Your Matcha

Nikki has a lot going on at the moment. She’s the best sound engineer and mixer at XY Records, she’s working on a super-secret project with a pop megastar, and holding the busier-than-usual studio together. The last thing she wants or needs is her ex-fiancé to start working in the studio over the summer. She’s over it—him. Obviously. Being ghosted has that effect. But working near someone she used to love has made her life that much more complicated. Andre has it all figured out. Two and half years ago he had no idea what he was doing when he walked away from the love of his life. But time has given him perspective, and he’s grown up—which is why this paleontology professor is working part-time at his ex’s recording studio. Because he wants to make amends. And maybe win her back. Will Nikki give him the chance he thinks he’s ready for? Or will it be her turn to walk away from him? All Mixed Up is book #8 in the Common Threads series, Seduction in the City World, which is part of the Penny Reid Book Universe.

All Mixed Up

Zara Lorna is kind of a big deal. After winning Artist of the Year (again), having a public argument with her boyfriend (again), and being whisked away by a man she barely knows (that’s new), it feels like she can’t go anywhere without drawing attention. It’s taking a toll on her and she could use a break.
 
Deciding to spend some time out of the public eye, she moves to Chicago to be close to Nikki. Hoping that being around her creative friend will cure her blues.
 
Asa Young was a rock star (almost). His dreams of traveling the world with his band came true (almost). These days, he’s content making commercial jingles at XY Records and staying as far away from the limelight as he can (that’s new). And he definitely doesn’t write music anymore.
 
Which means he should definitely stay away from Zara, no matter how much fun they have and how easy their connection. Being around her attracts too much unwanted attention.
 
Except that being around her is all he wants to do. She reignites a flame inside Asa he thought had died long ago. And he is everything her heart has been looking for. Is the connection they share strong enough to make them more than friends? Or are there too many obstacles to make it work?
 
Write or Wrong is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone. Book #9 in the Common Threads series, part of the Seduction in the City world in the Penny Reid Book Universe.
