Have you heard about Kindle Vella?

Kindle Vella graphic

Have you heard? Kindle Vella is available in Beta. You can check out the first 3 episodes of any serial story for 0 pennies. After that, you use tokens to unlock episodes. Word on the street is that Amazon is still loading up new users with 200 tokens if you give their new platform a try. I’ve got two stories available on Vella now. New episodes for each will drop every Friday. I hope you’ll check it out and let me know what you think! You can ‘follow’, ‘like’, and ‘fave’ stories and episodes. Kindle will let you know when new episodes are released.

Happy reading!

Affinity Guild Novella – Scion Sabotage:  https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/product/B098MY6VL7

Description: 
Guild Scion Kam Kenzo has it all: a gorgeous partner in his bed and life, and the imminent launch of a spaceship he designed. His hand-picked crew included his partner De, his security consultant, Cobb, and Cobb’s hacker girlfriend Shawna. They were ready for anything. Or were they? Malfunctioning doors. Course overrides. Coincidences or sabotage? Can they find out who’s working against them before time and their air supply runs out?

Paranormal Rom-Com – Love Potion #13: https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/product/B092TQYZH1

Description:
Waking up in my hot neighbor’s bed hadn’t been part of the plan. My walk of shame in HIS body turned befuddlement into terror. Our little feuds paled in comparison to the current mess. Can Adam and I fake it as each other until we can swap our bodies back? House, job, phone, friends: they’re all temporarily his, leaving me no secrets and nowhere to hide.

Mister Marriage is ready to meet you in Kindle Unlimited!

Amazon E-book & PaperbackNewsletter Sign-upMister Marriage has made the move into Kindle Unlimited!

Firefighter Jimmy proves he can save everything but his heart in this marriage of convenience romance from Amelia Simone. Jimmy is ready to show you how NOT to propose. Grab his story, available NOW from major retailers.

Jimmy’s first kiss with Melena tanked hard and ended where they least expected. One expensive diagnosis later, a marriage of convenience doesn’t sound so bad. Melena gets his insurance. Jimmy gets someone to come home to. The pledge: one year, drama-free. Fated to fail or fated to fall?

Jimmy Torres
My life as a firefighter revolves around serving and protecting. The last thing I wanted was to be the kiss of death. When Melena collapsed at my feet, I knew I’d do everything in my power to help the woman who’d already stolen a piece of my heart. Our marriage was a match made for mutual convenience, but my feelings were anything but. Did Melena share my malady? Or was I the only one suffering from a different kind of heart ailment?

Melena Nemitz
Jimmy was amazing when I needed him most. His insurance was life-saving in more ways than one. My faulty heart may recover medically, but something tells me Jimmy’s impact is long-term. He’s been so kind, but does it mask something more, or am I alone in thinking this marriage deserves a real shot?

Humor and all the feels abound in this modern marriage of convenience. Mister Marriage is book 2 of the Self-Made Series and can be read as a stand-alone or after Mister Romance.

I don’t hide it – I love men who cook. (And Reader, I married one.) WHY? Exhibits A & B below. My husband’s quiche skills versus mine. There is no contest. I try, but…sigh.

Mister Romance cover reveal!

Mister Romance Paperbook - man holding glass of wine on cover

Mister Romance by Amelia Simone, cover design by Qamber Designs & Media

Books 2 Read Pre-Order LinkAmazon Pre-Order LinkBehold! I love the new cover for Mister Romance! So excited for this to hit your e-readers March 19th!

Mister Romance will start out as a wide release, including Kobo, Apple, Nook, and Amazon. In early April it will enter Kindle Unlimited, so if you read on one of the other devices, be sure to grab your copy before it leaves those stores!

Special thanks to Qamber Designs and Media for the lovely cover. I can’t wait for you to catch up with Chase and Tamra’s shenanigans! Note for long-time readers: this is a re-release with significant changes.

He’s living a double life, and she’s vowed to get a life …

Tamra Shaw

Every aspect of my life is drab. I need more than my nursing career. Nothing will change if I don’t. I’m determined to do it – three things that scare me:  Reach out to my favorite romance author. Try pole dancing. Flirt a little. Nothing’s stopping me but me.

My brother’s wedding is the perfect opportunity to show everyone the new me. Now, to find a date…

Chase Hoffman

The sultry siren masquerading as a practical nurse can’t fool me. Tamra is romantic lead material. Being her date to her brother’s wedding is a dream come true. Or my worst nightmare.

There’s a reason I live my life behind a keyboard. No one wants me running my mouth without preparation. Boobs. Aliens. You never know what might pop out. Me and my blundering mouth can keep it together for one tiny favor – right?

High heat and light-hearted fun abound in this friends to lovers romance. Mister Romance is book 1 of the Self-Made Series and can be read as a stand-alone or before Mister Marriage.

Poison Pill releases July 2

I’ve been juggling projects left and right lately, trying not to drop one on the floor.  The good news is, that means I have lots of fun new things coming your way! 


Poison Pill is out 7/2/20.  Gah!  I can’t believe I’m already on book 3 of this series!  Readers will see that I may have a few more books up my sleeve . . . speaking of new books, I’m hard at work on an Affinity Guild novella.  I couldn’t write a whole sci-fi series without having at least one part of it set in space now, could I?  (I couldn’t.  I really, really couldn’t.)  Tentatively titled Space Sabotage or Scion Sabotage, I’m looking at this novella as an opportunity to try out audio book production.  A new frontier for me!


Mister Romance re-release pending.  So, Mister Romance is getting a re-release with some editing to tighten it up and a new cover.  I am SO EXCITED about the new covers I’ve commissioned with Qamber Designs & Media.  Najla has been a dream to work with, and I can’t wait to share the Self-Made Series covers!


Mister Marriage is book 2 of the Self-Made series, and it may push back to late August or possibly September depending on the speed of copy edits. This book needed some extra editing love to reach a point where I’m happy to release it.  It’s another fabulous Qamber Designs & Media cover, and I can’t wait for you to see it!
