Evan


They tell you that a parent’s love is all-consuming. I never put much thought into it. Not until the minute I heard her take her first breath. That little girl is my world. I’d do anything to protect her. 


My ex signed over her rights, and her family vowed that my daughter didn’t exist. Now that she’s gone, they want my little girl. They’re trying to say I can’t give her what she needs.


They’re wrong. I’m gearing up for the fight of my life, and when my best friend’s little sister offers to help, I take her up on it. I’ll do anything to keep my daughter with me.


McKinley


I’ve known Evan all my life. Our families’ farms run parallel with each other. He and my brother Aaron have been best friends for as long as I can remember. 


What they’re trying to do is wrong. He needs my help, someone he can trust, and I’m more than happy to do it. I volunteered without hesitation.


I should have thought about what it would be like to have our lives intertwined. I should have thought about what would happen when our time together ended and how my heart would feel when I had to walk away.

Southern Desire (Book #2)


Aaron

I always thought love was black and white. You meet a girl, and within the first meeting, you’ll know if she’s the one. If she is, you live happily ever after. My concept was a little off, but it worked for me. I don’t waste my time with women I don’t see a future with.

The day I met Whitney, I didn’t get hit with the love bug. Nothing spectacular happened, at least not how I expected it to.

She’s everything. Everything I didn’t realize I needed.

I know that Whitney is my future. Now that I’ve found her, it’s time to prove to her this is where she belongs.

Whitney

The last year has been a constant struggle to live with the heartache and the pain. Needing a change, I picked up and moved to Kentucky to live with the only family I have left. I didn’t expect to feel at home like I did. I didn’t expect him.

The day I met Aaron, I was sure he would run for the hills the next time he saw me. That’s not what happened at all.

With his sweet gestures and words that melt my soul, he worked his way into my heart.

I want nothing more than to be with him, but how can I stay with this dark cloud that follows me?


Tropes: Cowboy Romance, Small Town




Southern Attraction (Book #3)


Mike

I had everything I ever wanted, living the dream, at least that’s what I always thought.

The night we met, we had an instant attraction, but she was with someone else. When we reunited a few months later, she was single, and that pull was still there, stronger than ever. So strong that even though she lived hundreds of miles away, I pursued her.

I told myself that I just wanted to get to know her. Deep down, I knew it was more.

I hate the distance between us, but am I willing to give up my legacy for her?

Jamie

I never understood the draw of living in the middle of nowhere. My dream life is in the city.

I’ve never had the desire to leave the city. Who would have thought a weekend trip to the country would have me questioning that decision? It was more than just the country air and the thousands of stars in the midnight sky. It was him.

The way he looks at me, treats me, and that smooth southern drawl.

The distance is too much, but am I willing to give up my dream for him?


Tropes: Small Town, Opposites Attract, Second Chance, Long Distance Relationship





Southern Devotion (Book #4)


Olivia

“Surprise me.” The words slipped out before I even knew I was saying them.

David has asked me to marry him every single day. Sometimes with a smile, sometimes in passing, but always with hope in his eyes. Deep down, we both knew that I wasn’t ready.

But now I am.

I’m ready to begin our forever. Ready for the life we’ve dreamed about during long talks and quiet nights. I’ve kept that future at arm’s length for too long, afraid to reach for it. But not anymore. It’s time to start our life together.

David

I knew from our very first date that she was the one.

I’ve asked her to marry me more times than I can count, though never on one knee. Not properly. Not officially. I always knew she wasn’t quite ready, but I wanted her to know that I was.

Now, everything’s different.

She’s ready. And this time, when I get down on one knee and ask her to be mine forever, it has to be perfect.


Tropes: Small Town, Bar Owner, Country Boy

Moran Sisters Series


NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series surrounding the Moran Sisters of Magnolia Ridge, Tennessee.

The Moran Sisters Series is a collection of interconnected small-town romances about love, loss, and the pull of coming home, and the people who make it impossible to leave. From the fiercely loyal older sister who swore off love, to the free spirit running from her past, the quiet heart who’s always lingered on the sidelines, and the firecracker who masks fear with laughter, each sister is about to fall hard for the last man she ever expected.


Four books:

1 - Trying Not to Love You

2 - Trying Not to Need You

3 - Trying Not to Kiss You

4 - Trying Not to Hate You
 






Blurb:

NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series set in a small town, surrounding four sisters. Trying Not to Love You is a small-town, second-chance, first-love, ex-military romance.

Ellison

Copeland James was my first love, my first heartbreak, my first everything.

Then he left without explanation, and never came back.

My sisters and our closest friends helped me pick up the pieces, but my heart hasn’t been whole since the day he walked out of Magnolia Ridge.

I’ve learned to live with what could have been… until his mother’s illness brings him back to our small town. He’s older, harder, and more magnetic than I remember.

He’s a man now. The man I learned to live without. And yet, he’s back, stirring everything I thought I’d buried, making my world feel unsteady.

Because loving him nearly destroyed me… and now, I’m still trying not to love him.

Copeland

I left Magnolia Ridge with nothing but a duffel bag and a decision.

I told myself joining the Marines was the right choice. That loving her meant protecting her, and this was the way to do it.

I was wrong.

Now I’m back, years later, and she’s just as breathtaking as the day I left. All these years, I imagined she’d have moved on, married someone else, but she’s still single, and in my heart, she’s still mine.

But Ellison doesn’t see me the way I see her, not anymore. All I find in her eyes is the wound I left behind. The one that never healed.

I didn’t fight for us back then, but I’ve learned. Now I’m ready for battle, fighting for what we could be while she tries not to love me.

With open arms and a heavy heart, Ryan invites you to explore all the colors of love. From matters of the heart to the beauty of family, Trying Not to Love You is emotion in it's rawest form. Copeland and Ellison take a dramatic stroll down memory lane. Haunting takes the soul by storm.
