Oct 4, 2024

Exciting news! Marrying the Nanny is on sale for 99c for a limited time!

This is the first book in the Raven’s Cove trilogy where uptight corporate consultant Reid is forced back to his childhood home on a remote island on BC’s central coast. His father has died and he needs to team up with his estranged half-brothers to get the fly-in fishing resort back on its feet. Oh, and also take custody of his infant half-sister, Storm.

As nanny to Storm, Emma is already in love with her. She wants to be her mother, but she’s in Canada on a work visa. She sticks around to make sure these burly, very unprepared men learn to love their sister, but she really wants a more permanent solution.

Could she and Reid find one in a marriage of convenience?

I love this series and hope you do, too! Book three just released the other day so dive into Raven’s Cove at the sale price of 99c and binge all three books this the weekend. You didn’t have any other plans, did you?

Climb aboard for Trystan’s story!

Oct 1, 2024

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

Aug 31, 2024

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?

Book 1: On the Edge
Book 2: From the Top

Marrying the Enemy launches today!

Aug 20, 2024

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!!!”

Want Romeo and Juliet with a better ending?

Aug 1, 2024

Welcome to the Visconti-Blackwood feud. It’s been carrying on for three generations, but the first time Eve and Dom meet, they don’t know each other’s full identity and nearly take things past the point of no return.

When Dom realizes he is about to sleep with his sworn enemy, he kicks Eve out of his bed.

Five years later, they’re attending a wedding in Australia and wind up stranded overnight on an island. The passion is still simmering along with the same animosity. Guess which emotion wins?

Here’s the official blurb:

Heading to the altar with the man she hates most…

Two warring households…
One marriage to unite them!

The Blackwood and Visconti feud has spanned generations. So when billionaire Domenico is stranded on a remote island with stunning adversary heiress Evelina, sparks are sure to fly. Just not the ones he thought…

Eve surrenders to her instant soul-burning chemistry with Dom, vowing never to reveal their sin… Until the age-old rivalry threatens to destroy her family. Now to ensure a truce, Eve must do the unthinkable: marry the enemy. Except how can she keep things strictly on paper when she can’t ignore the hunger her husband has unleashed?

Can’t wait to read it? Good news! You can get it today from Harlequin.com or Mills & Boon UK.

It releases on all platforms August 20th. Use the links below to preorder.

Are you ready for Forgiving Her First Love?

Jul 16, 2024

Honestly, I’m not sure you are ready for this one. Here’s what Melissa on Goodreads said:

“No spoilers but my heart absolutely shattered at one point and I was bawling. That is the perfect sign of a well written story!”

I absolutely adored writing Logan and Sophie’s story. For starters, I got to go back to Raven’s Cove and check in on Reid, Emma, and of course, baby Storm. Then I got to get to know more locals including Sophie’s grandfather, Art, and her son, Biyen–who is a hoot and a half. You’ll love him. I promise.

Glenda comes back, of course, to kick butt and take names, and we get a better picture of Cloe and how she’ll change Trystan’s life in Book Three.

But I’m getting ahead of myself! Here’s the official blurb for Forgiving Her First Love.

They have a past they’d both rather forget…

When Logan Fraser arrives to save the marina she manages, Sophie Peterson is skeptical that she can count on him. She spent her childhood crushing on Logan, and they even had a brief affair when he came back to Raven’s Cove the summer she graduated high school, but he left again, breaking her heart.

Logan escaped Raven’s Cove to design luxury yachts. He was done with the relentless rain and a childhood of feeling responsible for other people’s unhappiness. His mother stuck out her difficult marriage for Logan’s sake, even when his father had yet another affair. By the time Sophie looked to Logan for happiness, he knew it was every man for himself.

Now Logan’s profligate father has died, leaving him an orphaned sister and a financial mess that demands a Herculean effort with his estranged brothers to resolve. He needs Sophie’s help, but her priorities are her son, grandfather and sanity. Still, she needs the job, but she’ll never trust Logan again.

If you prefer print, it should appear in the next couple of days. Here are the rest of your quicklinks:

Delivery Day for Her Billion-dollar Bump

Jun 26, 2024

It’s launch day for Her Billion-dollar Bump! Hooray! This one is also my first book with the new look for Harlequin Presents. How much do you love it? Isn’t it fabulous?

I’m equally in love with the contents, I must admit. Fliss and Saint were such a fun pair to write. He’s a playboy who is used to living his life by his own rules while Fliss is fighting the good fight, trying to build a life for herself.

They have a one-night affair, he tries to send her earrings–which she would have found insulting if she had actually received them. Instead, her tiny subterfuge around a stolen invitation to a gala is discovered, scandal erupts around both of them, and she hopes she’ll never see him again in her life.

Then she turns up pregnant. She wants the baby, but she doesn’t want his circus life so she asks him for one tiny favour: Make a public statement that the baby is not his. He doesn’t want it anyway. Does he?

Spoiler alert: he definitely wants both of them.

Cinderella’s confession: “I’m pregnant.”
Housemaid Fliss gave up her fashion dreams to care for her late grandmother. So finding a discarded invitation to the year’s most exclusive event feels like her last chance to get her designs noticed. She just never imagined that attention would come from notorious Saint Montgomery…

Knowing she doesn’t belong in the billionaire’s world, innocent Fliss can’t resist one night of Saint’s expert seduction. Except when his “thank you” diamonds land her in the headlines, she’s drawn back into his powerful presence. Because she has news of her own—and the bump to prove it!

More fun news! Did you know that Her Billion-dollar Bump is part of the Diamonds of the Rich and Famous trilogy that I wrote with my writing pals Maya Blake and Emmy Grayson? All these books stand-alone so you can read them in any order, but if you love glamor and passion and an exclusive diamond shop, grab all three!

Book 2: Prince’s Forgotten Diamond by Emmy Grayson

An Early Delivery for Her Billion-dollar Bump?

Jun 1, 2024

Here’s a tiny twist on the surprise baby trope: My heroine Fliss tells Saint she’s pregnant, but only because she wants him to make a statement that her baby is not his, so the paparazzi will leave her alone.

Saint is no saint, but he absolutely refuses to turn his back on his child–especially after he discovers how she got pregnant. (Not her fault. Definitely his.)

If you love a bad-boy/playboy hero, sabotaged birth control that results in a shotgun marriage, a tarot card reading heroine who successfully bets on the ponies, and a scene at an upper-crust party that involves the hero both protecting the heroine and shattering her trust in him, then Her Billion-dollar Bump is for you!

Good news! You can get it today if you buy on Harlequin.com or Mills & Boon UK.
