Adored in Autumn is out today!
I’m so thrilled that today is another release day for me. I’ve always loved reunion romances and friends turned to lovers and these are the two themes of Adored in Autumn, my latest erotic historical romance that is out today! It’s the FINAL book in my Seasons series (though it can be read standalone). The previous books were An Affair in Winter, A Spring Deception and One Summer of Surrender. Here is a quick description:Viscountess Felicity Barbridge escaped a violent marriage with her life because she was willing to make desperate choices. Now those choices are back to haunt her, as is the object of her girlhood obsession, Asher Seyton.
Asher was never anything more than a servant’s son, but he’s elevated himself through an education and is now a respected solicitor. He only returns to his childhood home to help with a financial issue, but when he realizes Felicity is being threatened, he’s driven to stay and help. Even if he must now face all the feelings for her he tried to repress over the years.
Will Felicity be able to trust Asher enough to share more than passion? And will Asher’s own secrets unravel all they’ve built?

One Summer of Surrender is HERE!!
It’s another release day for me (62 to be exact). This one is a steamy historical romance about a man who was betrayed by the woman he loved and the passion that flares between them anyway. One Summer of Surrender is also the third book in my current series called Seasons. The previous books were An Affair in Winter and A Spring Deception. Here is a quick description: Lucien, the Earl of Stenfax has been engaged twice, but only in love once. That was with his childhood sweetheart, Elise. When she threw him over for a man with more money and a higher ranking title, it broke him. Now she's widowed and he finds himself drawn to her again, like a moth to her flame.
Elise had her reasons for walking away from Lucien, reasons he doesn't understand. Back in Society, she's now financially desperate and is even considering becoming someone's mistress. But Lucien keeps appearing at the most inopportune moments and it's only a matter of time before the desire between them explodes.
Time will tell if Lucien will be able to see past his lusty drive for revenge. And if Elise can convince him she's worthy of more, despite the past.

My 61st book is out!
Today is a big day for me! My 61st book release is out! I've written under three names over the years but have never been happier than when I returned to erotic historical romance and went indie. This journey in the past two years has been wonderful. I get to write the stories I love, as often as I wish to write them and support my family well thanks to the support of you readers! So thank so much
Today's release is a steamy historical romance about a duke who’s not a duke, a lady who needs a title and a bunch of secrets that could destroy everything. A Spring Deception is also the second book in my current series called Seasons, which started in July with An Affair in Winter. Here is a quick description:
Miss Celia Fitzgilbert’s grandfather has decreed she must marry a man with a title or he’ll never reveal her mysterious father’s identity. But her engagement to an Earl was already broken, leaving her steeped in scandal. She has all but given up until the reclusive Duke of Clairemont returns to Society and sweeps her off her feet, a potential solution to all her problems.
But things are not so simple for the duke. Aiden is not comfortable with his position in Society, perhaps because he is a fraud. In truth, Clairemont died months ago and the man playing him is a spy, bent on uncovering a dangerous secret. A flirtation with Celia, meant to help him fit in, quickly turns very real. But can Celia recover when the lies come out? Ad can Aiden keep them both alive long enough to even consider a future?

I have a NEW series that starts TODAY!!
I’m thrilled to share that I have a new release out today. It’s a steamy historical romance about a one night stand, a hero and heroine at odds and a wedding that MUST be stopped. An Affair in Winter also launches my BRAND NEW series, Seasons, so if you’ve seen my name around but weren’t sure where to start on your “Jess Michaels” reading adventure, this is a great place to begin. Here is a quick description:
Widow Rosalinde Wilde is on her way to her beloved sister’s wedding when an unexpected storm waylays her at an overcrowded inn. There she meets a tempting stranger who sweeps her into a night of unforgettable passion.
Grayson Danford never expected a night with the irresistible Mrs. Wilde, but she was a welcome distraction from the unpleasant duty of breaking up his brother’s impending nuptials. He’s shocked when he discovers his passionate lover is none other than the sister of his brother's intended.
Now Rosalinde and Gray will butt heads, even as their simmering desire for each other threatens to boil over. Who will win? And who might lose it all?

Seduced (The Wicked Woodleys 5) is here!
So excited to share that the 5th and FINAL book in my Wicked Woodleys series, SEDUCED is out today! This is Jack and Letty’s book, an erotic historical romance and while it is the last in the series, many reviewers have noted it can be read as a standalone! The book is just $2.99 until the end of Thursday, May 19 and then will go up to its regular price. Here is a quick description: Criminal Jack Blackwood has plenty of problems, from his complicated relationship with his brother to the plethora of men coming to dethrone him as king of the underground. What he doesn't need is a rich, bored gentleman showing up to try to join his gang. Worse, he doesn't need that gentleman's sister, Lady Letitia Seagate, chasing after him demanding he keep her brother safe. If only the lady weren't so damned intriguing.
Widowed Letty is desperate to protect her younger brother, even if it means matching wits with the notorious, charismatic Captain Jack. Only the man has far more to him than she ever expected, and his tempting kisses and smoldering promises leave her wanting more than she has ever dared before. Can Jack uncover the truth behind Letty's darkest lies? And will they both survive the storm about to strike at the very heart of their passion?

The Wicked Woodleys continue with Gabriel's story!
My newest erotic historical romance series The Wicked Woodleys continues today with the release of TEMPTED (Wicked Woodleys 3)! Reviewers have said it can be read standalone but if you have read the others, this is Gabriel and Juliet’s story. Gabriel is probably my favorite hero I’ve written! This book is just $2.99 until the end of today (1/12) and then will go up to its regular price.
Here is a quick description:
The youngest son of the Woodley clan, Gabriel has been obsessed with bringing his missing twin sister home since she disappeared over two years ago. His drive has forced him to block out all else, including any feelings he may have for the beautiful Juliet Gray. But when she is brought to London by Gabriel’s mother, avoiding the desire she inspires becomes impossible.
Juliet never wanted to come to London in the first place, especially since she knows she won’t be able to avoid Gabriel, who has been both confusing and drawing her from the moment they met. But to give her father a chance at happiness, she’ll stay in town. When Gabriel asks for her help in finding his sister, explosive secrets will be spilled and long suppressed longings will overflow. But will their search bring them love or expose them to a danger that could destroy all they’ve built?
