We are excited to have a cover and description for the last story in our American Gypsy Romance short story series, called Rebecca. Fiery Graphics created all of the beautiful covers for these stories.

Releasing every Thursday through mid-August, these stories are about young women finding romance and happiness in their Romani communities. They all have happy endings, and can be read within an hour.

We're excited to share When You Were Mine with you all!

High school sweethearts. One night of heartbreak.

Michael and I used to be inseparable, but a devastating moment during a summer party after high school graduation brought our relationship to a painful stop. I avoided spending winter break from my freshman year in college back in my small town, but summer is closing in, looming like a dark cloud on the horizon. Returning home means facing Michael and the ruins of our relationship, but my fearful heart still aches over the future I always assumed we would share.

When my younger sister reveals that Michael is rumored to be engaged, I realize that I'm not ready to give him up. He's moved on, with a beautiful fiancée who seems to make him happy, but can I stand by and ignore the love I still hold in my heart for him?

We're so excited to share our fifth and final book in the Cherish Creek sweet small town romance series, Perfectly Yours, available now wherever you love to purchase e-books. Thank you so much to everyone who has been reading and loving this series, which has been so much fun for us to write!

When Annabelle returns to her small town to pursue an internship opportunity, will she help her high school enemy, who is also the boy next door, when he begs her to pretend to be his girlfriend to make his dying grandma happy?

Coming back to Cherish Creek after a few years at a big city university is like a breath of fresh air, but once Mason, who stole my Halloween candy in elementary school, cheated off my math tests in middle school, and teased me about my red hair until the day we graduated, traipses across his lawn to mine, I know he's up to no good. His ornery smile is still cute, but he's buttering me up for something I won't like, so when he asks me to act like his girlfriend to please his terminally ill grandmother, I waver.

His grandma, who just moved to town so Mason and his family can take care of her, doesn't know about our past, but everyone else in Cherish Creek does. He's the most annoying man I know, but saying no would hurt his grandma. Even if I agree to this ridiculous plan, can I pull off such an act convincingly enough to fool the entire town?

Perfectly Yours is the irresistible fifth book in the Cherish Creek sweet small town romance series. If you like enemies to lovers, fake relationships, and family devotion, you'll love Alessa Martel's pretend romance love story.
