KU Readers! Did you know…
I’ve moved some books into KU! (And given them new covers)
Are you in the mood for an enemies-to-fated mates romantasy?
Athadia is a Healer trying to save her race. Vaun is a warrior who captures her and won’t let her go. If you love an epic, intriguing, emotional adventure, start reading on KU now.
Would you rather some small-town, workplace romance?
If you love enemies-to-lovers that are also a second-chance at first love, plus a hint of intrigue, Not in Her Wildest Dreams will scratch all those itches.
Paige is forced back to her home town to audit her father’s company so he can retire. Sterling is also forced back to Liebe Falls to ensure that No Good Fogarty Girl doesn’t pull a fast one on his own dad. They kissed once, fifteen years ago, and things went south bad. They’re both holding a grudge, but there’s still a ton of chemistry. It’s a slow burn that results in a real fire.
Only in His Sweetest Dreams is more of a friends-to-lovers with found family and tons of heart.
You don’t have to read Book One, but you might want to. Paige’s brother, L.C., winds up in a retirement community, helping his son serve community hours. Mercedes is the manager of the complex. She’s taking custody of her sister’s children and needs a handyman, among other things. This is absolutely the wrong timing for both of them. They are both wrong and right for each other and definitely deserve their HEA.

His Christmas Miracle is *F*R*E*E*
Christmas has come early! For a limited time, my most popular holiday title, His Christmas Miracle is FREE.
This super-sweet (and somewhat spicy) story has single-dad Quincy completely out of depth as he takes custody of his four-year-old son. Together with his Dad, they move back to Marietta, but he needs help.
Along comes Nicki, an out-of-work actress who takes a nanny job and immediately falls for Quincy’s adorable son Atlas. She sees right away that Quincy needs to bond with Atlas so she puts together an Advent calendar of activities that keep them all busy in the lead-up to Christmas.
She’s not planning to stay in Marietta, though. Can Quincy open his heart in time?
Fun News! My publisher has arranged some extra price drops on the whole Love in Montana series. Look for these special prices:

His Highness’s Hidden Heir – Get it early!
The early stork gets the baby book if you shop at Harlequin.com or Mills and Boon UK today.
It’s the soft launch of His Highness’s Hidden Heir, my secret royal baby book.
I loved writing this story! I knew it was going to be my sixtieth Harlequin so I let myself go even more larger than life than I usually do. That means Lexi is over-the-top famous with a hideous reputation as a diva and a lot of bills she is struggling to pay.
Magnus is a powerful Viking of a prince who really doesn’t want to become king. But he is duty-bound and the very last thing he needs is a woman who is a magnet for scandal.
The sexual attraction is off the scale so they agree to a very, very hot one-night and Lexi tries really hard to keep her baby a secret. He finds out anyway and fireworks ensue. Here’s the official blurb:
A shotgun wedding…
at the palace altar!
Former wild-child actress Lexi’s mission to reclaim her career at a gala is thwarted when she’s found by her stalker. Sending her straight into the protective arms of irresistible Prince Magnus! They succumb to a single night of scalding pleasure…
When a positive pregnancy test changes Lexi’s plans, she knows Magnus can’t be tied to her scandalous reputation, however safe he made her feel. But after Magnus discovers her secret, his coldly pragmatic solution blindsides her. And newlywed princess Lexi is left wondering if her royal husband even remembers their explosive encounter…

Husband for the Holidays is here! (ho-ho-ho)
Husband for the Holidays is here! Hooray!
I’m definitely in the camp that believes anything Christmas should wait until Remembrance Day has been observed, but I don’t make the publishing rules and, honestly, I’m delighted to have this holiday romp for you.
Do you love an unrequited crush (that is actually requited) on big brother’s best friend? How about a hero who has never had a Christmas worth celebrating and he winds up with the most Christmas-y of Christmas elves who teaches him to love the season?
Here’s the official blurb:
A billionaire for Christmas…or for life?
To Konstantin Galanis, heiress Eloise Martin was always strictly off-limits. Too young, too innocent—and his late best friend’s sister. Then he spots her in snowy Manhattan dressed as a Christmas elf, and discovers she’s chosen destitution over a loveless marriage. The steely tycoon feels duty-bound to offer her protection with his own festive proposal…
The kiss Konstantin turned down years ago still haunts Eloise. Accepting his convenient ring is an act of desperation, and every minute in his intoxicating presence inflames her hopeless desire. Has Konstantin saved her from the cold…yet condemned her to burn?

Climb aboard for Trystan’s story!
Welcome back to Raven’s Cove!
The third and final book in the trilogy, Wanting a Family Man, releases today. Hooray!
Ever since the Fraser brothers arrived in Raven’s Cove and took custody of their infant half-sister, they’ve been dreading a possible custody challenge by Cloe, baby Storm’s aunt. Well, guess who just showed up at this tiny, remote fishing resort?
Cloe would take Storm in a heartbeat, but she’s broke, jobless, homeless… All she’s been thinking about since she was released from protective custody was getting to her orphaned niece to see that she’s well-cared for. She’d love to stick around since Storm is the only family she has, but how?
Trystan knows they have to give Cloe a chance, but isn’t sure he can trust her. He brings her aboard his whale-watching tours so he can keep an eye on her. The challenge? Keeping his hands off her.
Wanting a Family Man is available on all platforms today. The print version should show up within 48 hours.
Climb aboard for this last sail into Raven’s Cove!

In Too Deep is *F*R*E*E* today
Checking into Blue Spruce Lodge costs nothing today because In Too Deep has been marked down to free!
Okay, there’s always a catch – it’s the third book in the series, but they all stand alone. You don’t have to read the first two.
In Too Deep is kind of secretly my favorite, though. Well, I love each book for different reasons, but this one cracks me up.
Playboy Trigg learns he has a daughter and she’s twelve. She’s also exactly as headstrong and competitive as he is. Meanwhile, her Auntie Wren has been raising her and Wren is endearingly kind and sweet and puts up with a lot of b.s. until she doesn’t.
Here’s the blurb:
The family he didn’t know he needed…
At her wit’s end with her twelve-year-old niece, Wren Snow takes the manager’s job at Blue Spruce Lodge so Sky can get to know her father, Trigg Johanssen—a tycoon snowboarder with a playboy reputation.
Gold-medalist Trigg Johanssen is furious she kept Sky a secret, but quits competition to focus on his newly discovered daughter only to have his chemistry with Wren complicate their attempts to co-parent.
When outside forces threaten the ski resort he’s rebuilding, a marriage of convenience seems like the answer. It would give his daughter the life she deserves, but is it too much for a heartbroken woman still nursing past hurts?
If you like to read in order, be sure to pick up:
Book 1: On the Edge
Book 2: From the Top

Marrying the Enemy launches today!
Would you like to be swept away onto a tropical island–stranded there even–with a sexy hero? Hooray! You can!
Marrying the Enemy releases on all platforms today. It’s also in print so be sure to look for it if that’s your preferred format.
This enemies-to-lovers to marriage-of-convenience has one of my favorite reactions from a heroine to the hero’s proposal. Dom cuts a marriage deal with Eve’s brother before he asks her and Eve is not impressed.
“Can I show you something?” she asked, working at keeping an innocent expression on her face.
He blinked, puzzled, then curious. He shrugged. “Sure.”
She led him through the house and out the front door to the paved pathway that led from the porch to the road above. A pretty wrought-iron rail lined the path. It was covered in grapevines and bunches of green grapes not yet ripe. On the other side of the porch was a small garden filled with Nonna’s roses. A few late blooms perfumed the air with lemon and raspberry and vanilla. A silver car was parked on the road above. His, she presumed.
Dom stood beside her, head swiveling. “What am I looking at?”
“My answer.” She walked back into the house and slammed the door.
Marrying the Enemy picked up this 5 star review on Netgalley:
“Loved this book! The tension between the hero and heroine sizzles and flows neatly within the storyline. A must read for every Dani Collins fan!!!”
