PICK ONE is NOW LIVE!

I once lived a fairly quiet existence as a math professor. Then Teagan Donahue crashed into my life like a shooting star. Now every day's a holiday, and my very best friend is also the guy I can't stop fantasizing about.
The guy I'm madly in love with.
The guy I'm ready to turn down my dream job for.
But the statistical probability of a man like Teagan wanting his shy, nerdy roommate as more than a friend is incredibly low, and if I have to choose between having everything else I've ever wanted and having Teagan in my life... well, I know which one I'll pick, every time.
Then one night on a crowded dance floor, I'm suddenly faced with a probability I've never let myself calculate: what if I don't have to choose at all?
**NOTE: This is a 25k word novella that was first available as part of a promotional giveaway. No new content has been added.
Pick One Is Now Available and #Free in #KindleUnlimited

CHERRY PICKED AUDIO is LIVE!

Never ask your brother’s best friend to pick your cherry.
When I asked Jack Wyatt to help me lose my pesky v-card, I didn’t expect him to keel over in shocked disapproval and nearly tumble us down a mountain.
You might think a guy who's been reading romance novels his whole life would've figured out a smoother way to broach the subject, but in my defense, I’ve been pining for Jack for seven long years, just waiting for him to notice me.
Jack sees me as sweet, shy Hawk Sunday: his Pride and Prejudice-obsessed hiking buddy, his dependable employee, and the honorary little brother he’s determined to protect, not…deflower.
But to me, Jack is everything a romantic hero should be: tall, gorgeous, kind, and brilliant.
Or at least I thought he was brilliant, until he started getting so many things so boneheadedly wrong.
Like refusing to do the deflowering himself, but also blocking any other potential plant-lovers from getting all up in my garden.
And like continuing to see me as someone who needs protecting, rather than a man who needs possessing. A man who's determined to get his cherry well and truly picked this summer, whether Jack Wyatt likes it or not.
Listen to Jack & Hawk's story narrated by Michael Dean now on Audible!

GRAB BONE TO PICK!
BONE TO PICK is now available in my website shop! This is Porter Sunday's book!

Never fall for your professor…
Especially when that professor is Theo Hancock, the man who failed you in your final semester, causing you to have to repeat a class in your millionth year of college when you’re already twenty-freaking-six years old…
Especially when the professor is the most stunning, eye-popping piece of perfection who ever walked on campus. So brilliant, his voice alone changed the course of your life. So gorgeous, students affectionately call him Dr. Hotco— Well, you get the idea.
And especially don’t fall for him so hard you show up at his house after midnight fueled with tequila and armed with a sense of justice, a frantic-mad sonnet, and a bone to pick with your professor.
Because you might just end up snowed in with him, his tiny cabin might just have one bed, and fate might have a new future in store for both of you.
You can grab the ebook, the audiobook AND a special bundle deal right now on my website May Archer Dot Com. Bone To Pick will also be coming to Amazon and Audible in the near future!

TURKEYS is NOW LIVE!
Lucy Lennox and I have a BRAND NEW BOOK in the Licking Thicket world and it's now available on our website shops!

Hunter Jackson’s Sage Advice for a Happy Thanksgiving
When your turkey-thieving, town-abandoning, former childhood friend reappears in Licking Thicket after fifteen long years, looking like a snack and smelling like all your favorite treats put together, it might be tempting to, well, dig in.
Don’t.
And when your plan to teach the man a lesson goes spectacularly awry, becoming less of a wattle-wearing walk of shame around the Thicket’s Thanksgiving festival and more of a sexy turkey-twerk in a skin-tight bird costume featuring the hottest pair of drumsticks the town’s ever seen, you might think it’s time to get over your feud and, well, take a bite.
Resist.
But when Charlton Nutter finally shows you the sweet, pure heart he’s hiding under all his fine, big-city feathers, and you realize, thanks to the town’s meddling matchmakers, that the man is hungry for the kind of love and belonging that only the Thicket can provide, you might decide that both of you have been acting like a pair of turkeys, and in that case you should…
Gobble. Him. Up.
Turkeys is now available at May Archer dot com in my Thicket shop. Grab ebook and audio deals, full series discounts and more.
This story will be available on Amazon (not in KU) and Audible in a few weeks but you don't want to miss out on these awesome seasonally appropriate savings in my store now!

Mr. Important Cover Reveal & Preorder!!
𝐌𝐫 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐀𝐋 & 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨!!

Once upon a time, someone looked at my scrawny, impetuous eight-year-old self and nicknamed me Mr. Important… and I believed them.
That was my first mistake.
Two decades, a dozen failed careers, and a thousand meaningless hookups later, I’ve made more mistakes than I can count. My parents have decided I’m purely decorative, my brother thinks I need pep talks, and the gorgeous billionaire who hired me as a favor to my dad? He’s forgotten I exist.
So I’m done with mistakes.
Call it my New Year’s resolution. From now on, I’m going after what I want… starting with the mysterious silver fox in the Roman warrior mask who approached me at the charity gala and offered me a scorching, anonymous one-night stand.
Unfortunately, when our masks come off I realize mistakes are not done with me.
Because the bossy guy who blew my mind? He’d thought I was someone else. Worse than that, he’s my father’s friend. A supposedly-straight workaholic. The person I’m stuck on a road trip with for the next two weeks. And, oh yeah, my actual boss.
The farther we get from New York, the closer we become, and the harder it is to pretend I’m not falling for him. But I can’t see how someone as brilliant, controlled, and successful as Thatcher Pennington would risk everything to be with someone like me… even if he makes me feel like I’m finally Mr. Important.
