The Absolute Worst Fake Fiance

Amazon Print Book | Amazon Ebook


Maggie Weston is a single mom who is always tired, always busy, and always trying to avoid her mother's phone calls. Augustus "Bugs" Sloane is an entomologist who is trying eradicate disease and death. He might look like a player, but his brain is 100% nerd and his social skills are 95% awkward as he focuses on all things mosquitos. 

When Maggie finds herself having to come up with a fake fiancé she made up to keep her mother off her back, she reluctantly agrees to be matched to Augustus Sloane. The Absolute Worst Fake Fiancé takes Maggie, her Smurf-loving daughter Roxie, and their absentminded "Bugs" Sloane through a year of Mother's Day brunches, sorority glamping trips, electricity-killing blizzards, and class reunion shenanigans.

Once Upon a Pumpkin Spice Latte

Amazon Print Book | Amazon Ebook

Hildegarde Bittersweet is loyal to the max, responsible to a fault, and an-almost-40 year old who has put her dreams on hold long enough to make sure her Papa's dying wish came true: to bring his Peter Pumpkin Spice into the flavor world. Prince Harcourt "Hart" of Hedgerow is admirably kind, unfailingly thoughtful, and dodging his royal responsibilities for as long as he possibly can. 

He comes to Pumpkin Pond to host the Fall Ball to celebrate when his ancestors discovered the town almost 350 years ago. He also comes because of royal protocol: he must wed a wife before his 35th birthday. At least it won’t be all drudgery and duty. His best friend Hildy will be there, his long-distance best friend for the last 25 years, who begrudgingly helps him as he inadvertently sets into motion the one thing he has avoided his entire life: taking a wife.

His Favorite Inconvenience

Amazon Print Book | Amazon Ebook


The holiday season truly is the most horrible time of the year.

Sera Calhoun found out who she was when she was a sorority girl, trying to find a slutty kitty costume for Halloween. Dane Andersson found out who he was when he was a child, laid up in bed for two years, learning how to walk again.


Their brains tell them to stay the distant acquaintances they are. But then they have to survive a fight-ridden Thanksgiving together. And a drunk St. Nick's Day. And a wet Santa Lucia. And a fish-filled Christmas Eve. Together.


Christmas is the time when people forgive and forget, but are Sera and Dane those kind of people? Do they even want to be???


Why would you love reading this book? You'll find:

-An Emma and Mr. Knightley dynamic

-Swedish customs during the holiday season

-Billionaires that are not the love interest

-A relationship between a stepbrother and stepsister (who became related by marriage when they were adults)

-A Las Vegas Strip Thanksgiving and Santa Lucia

-A little bit of swearing (when necessary) and some lovely sexual tension (which remains closed door)
