HOT SUMMER NIGHTS is now available!

Passions ignite in these all-new stories from four bestselling masters of contemporary romance…

 In Jaci Burton’s “Hope Smolders,” struggling divorcee Jane has put her personal life on hold to raise her kids—until she runs into Will, her ex’s former best friend, who convinces her it’s time to start having fun again.

Carly Phillips takes you back to the town of Serendipity, where overworked Alexa has an instant connection with a sinfully sexy football star on the dance floor. A one-night stand evolves into multiple nights when Luke decides to teach the good doctor about his brand of fun. But when it’s time for him to leave town, will these “Perfect Strangers” be able to say goodbye for good?

In Jessica Clare’s “Legend of Jane,” an intrepid Bloggess catches the eye of local law enforcement when she gets caught trespassing. Luckily, Luanne wouldn’t mind getting handcuffed by Officer Hotness…

Single girl Chelsea is tired of feeling like the fifth wheel on her weekend jaunt to Lake Placid, until she gets stuck out in the cold and finds a muscular knight in shining armor to warm her up—in Erin McCarthy’s “Ice Princess.”

I’m so excited to debut Hope Smolders, the first novella in my new HOPE Contemporary romance series! I hope you enjoy this first look into my new series.

HOT SUMMER NIGHTS releases in a week! I’m very excited this anthology, because it’s the debut of the introductory novella to my brand new HOPE contemporary romance series. 

I loved writing HOPE SMOLDERS in the HOT SUMMER NIGHTS anthology. Jane is wounded from her first marriage, and hesitant to get involved with anyone. She believes life is all about caring for her two kids, making the mortgage payment and paying the rest of the bills. All the fun has gone out of her life in the past few years. Until she runs into Will Griffin, her ex husband’s former best friend. Will’s convinced that Jane needs to have fun again, and he thinks he’s just the guy to show her how.

Excerpt below, and a link to preorder the book, which also includes awesome stories by rockin’ authors Carly Phillips, Erin McCarthy and Jessica Clare.
