BLURB

Jillian

They say when one door closes another one opens, right? When the door closed on my marriage, I was fortunate to follow a new dream. One that led me to opening my own bakery in downtown Pine Village. It hasn’t been easy, especially in the offseason, but I make it work. I’m content. Happy.
Then Kameron Markley showed up on my doorstep, begging me to be his fake girlfriend.
It seems like such a simple plan, especially when we’re both getting something out of it. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long before lines are blurred and crossed, and suddenly, the relationship doesn’t feel so fake after all.

Kameron

For the last decade, I’ve poured my heart and soul into my restaurant, turning a small-town space into a top steak house. The building beside mine has been sitting for as long as I can remember, and the owner is finally ready to sell. The only problem is, she thinks it needs to go to a family man. Suddenly, I’m desperate.
That’s when I come up with the wild idea to find a fake girlfriend.
Jillian Kirby fits the bill to a T, and with a little negotiation, we’re able to work out a deal where we both come out ahead. What I wasn’t expecting was it being so easy to be around her. Suddenly, the lie we’re telling does feel like it’s so right. I want it to be real.

Nicole French’s BOSS OF THE YEAR drops August 15


"Heartache finds inspiration from classic romance. Lucas and Marie bring the drama to serendipity. Unpredictable emotion meets irresistible romance." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)



🔥 This steamy romance will be available in Kindle Unlimited!






He’s her brooding, off-limits boss. She’s his brother’s newest flame…and the weakness he’s craved for years.


She never expected to come face-to-face with Lucas Lyons—the grumpy, gorgeous CEO of the entire Lyons empire and the older brother of her long-forgotten crush.


Once upon a time, Marie had been just the invisible girl in the back of the estate kitchen. Now? She’s confident, capable, and no longer easy to ignore.


Especially not by Lucas.


He sees her now. And it’s a problem.


***


Lucas Lyons—head of the Lyons family empire, perfectionist, older brother to the man who used to make Marie’s teenage heart flutter—sees his beautiful personal chef as a complication. A distraction he doesn’t need. A girl he has no business wanting.


Especially now that his younger brother is suddenly very interested in Marie himself.


Lucas knows she’s too young. Too bold. Too tempting.


But the closer they get, the more dangerous the line between forbidden and inevitable becomes.


For a man like Lucas, giving in means losing control. And falling for Marie Zola?


Might just ruin them both.


*Boss of the Year is a Sabrina-inspired boss-employee romance that does NOT include cheating, but does include a lot of angst. If you’re not up for drama, this isn’t your cup of tea. 


REVIEW: BOSS OF THE YEAR (BELMONT BILLIONAIRES) BY NICOLE FRENCH

Mabel Muldowney is my best friend’s little sister. Sky-blue eyes. The girl who chased us through fields in pink shoes and dreamed about leaving our small town for the city.

I’m the boy from the farm next door who wasn’t supposed to fall for her.

I loved her anyway. Even when I shouldn’t. Even when I swore I wouldn’t. I buried it—every glance, every urge.

But I slipped–one time–when we were teenagers.

It was raining. We were under a willow tree.

She was ready to give me her heart, but I couldn’t be the guy who reached for his best friend’s sister. So I pulled away and built a life rooted in discipline and distance.

Then my best friend died. And Mabel left for the city.

Now she’s back with nothing but secrets and a suitcase. It’s the second chance I’ve been praying for. But she doesn’t want to stay, and I can’t leave. I’m held to the land by the promise I made to her brother as he took his final breath.

Mabel thinks I’ve spent my life ignoring her. What she doesn’t know is she’s all I’ve ever seen. I’ve got eight weeks to show her this town could be home again. Eight weeks to prove my love.

I don’t plan on wasting a second.

Previously released as The Farm to Mabel Duet, this standalone small-town romance has been rewritten in first-person point of view, featuring new scenes, deeper character arcs, and even more swoon-worthy moments.





REVIEW: ALWAYS MEANT FOR YOU BY KRISTA SANDOR

Always Meant for You
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It's a long way to forever when a stubborn heart takes hold. Youthful dreams, prideful ego and emotional upset put an end to first love. Can a forgiving heart be the beginning of their second chance? Cal and Mabel are the best part of what makes love so frustrating. Tears will fall, smiles will come as an entrancing story unfolds.
