Hott Shot Is Here!
I’m super excited to finally get to share this book with you! And here are some early readers who are excited, too:
★★★★★ Quinn is a dirty mountain man, so be warned! He knew how to take control in Every. Single. Way! —Jackie, Goodreads
★★★★★ Really loved this spinoff and the introduction to Hanna’s brothers—it’s going to be a great series! —Maria Rose, Goodreads
★★★★★ The way this series is set up is brilliant and too funny… A perfect romance, laughs, swoons and wanting more. —Eleanor, Goodreads
★★★★★ The chemistry between them jumped off the page and I especially loved their banter which made me grin at my kindle! —bookish_spoonie, Instagram
★★★★★ Once again Serena Bell has created an adorable hero, and I absolutely ADORED all the little ways Quinn showed Sonya he cared about her. —alisadventuresinliterature, Instagram
Here are some things you can look forward to in Hott Shot: 
All the grumpy-sunshine-y goodness. A gruff scientist (in a mountain man’s body) stuck behind the reception desk at a salon (total fish out of water!) Only one reception desk AND only one cabin! A set of brothers who swore they’d never come back to Rush Creek (but are about to be proved wrong). A late night, private haircut and beard trim. Found family, steamy scenes, and laughs. Appearances by Wilder brothers and Wilder women. (But no worries! You’ll love this series even if you’ve never touched a Wilder book.)

Wilder At Last Is Here!
Readers Say…
★★★★★ “Hanna & Easton’s chemistry is page-turning, their banter is extra witty, and their shared vulnerable/unsure moments will pull on your heartstrings & attack your tear ducts! (especially if you’re a younger sibling 
)”
—alyssa, Goodreads
★★★★★ “When I say I have never wanted a couple to just HAVE SEX more? I’m so serious. From the start of this book the chemistry was literally electric.”
—kat, Goodreads
★★★★★ “I loved their banter with each other and with the other characters which we’ve come to know and love. No surprise that there were some hilarious moments where tears were running down my face from laughing so hard.”
—Tracey, Goodreads
★★★★★ “This book is so good! It’s cute! And funny! And touching! And steamy! And romantic! And a teeny bit teary! It’s just…everything you could ask for in a romance story!”
—Cee, Goodreads
★★★★★ “Easton and Hanna finally get their turn and it was everything I hoped it would be! Lots of witty banter but also sooo much heart and emotion. This story is sooo good!!”
—Ellen, Goodreads
Falling for my frenemy? Out of the question.
Easton: For as long as I can remember, I’ve been giving Hanna a hard time—and she’s been giving it right back. So we’re both shocked to find ourselves on the same side of a project: helping Hanna win the heart of the celebrity chef hired by my family’s business to give summer workshops.
It shouldn’t be a big deal. A wardrobe evaluation. A shopping trip. Maybe some how-to-get-the-guy advice. I’m an expert on matters of the heart—or, at least matters of the mattress.
But as Hanna starts to trust me and open up, I see her differently. She’s not so much blunt as refreshingly honest, not so much a plain Jane in baggy clothes as… deliciously curvy. And hidden under that spiky, steely exterior is a soft heart she doesn’t show anyone.
Suddenly, the project includes ogling Hanna in dressing room mirrors. Offering her kissing lessons. And desperately trying not to give in to the sizzling heat between us.
I have to let her know the plan has changed: I’ll still help her get the guy she wants. I just need to somehow convince her that it’s me.
A steamy, opposites-attract, enemies-to-lovers (or is it friends-to-lovers? So hard to tell with these two!), mountain man small-town rom com.

A Little Wilder Is Now Available!
A Little Wilder is here! Book #4 in the Wilder Adventures series is now available in ebook and paperback.
Kane and Mari never expected their Vegas one-night stand to have… consequences…
Accidental pregnancy & surprise baby Opposites attract Only one bed (RV!) Cinnamon roll hero Let the Wilder rumpus begin!
Find it here!
What happened in Vegas? Definitely didn’t stay in Vegas.
Gabe’s the oldest. Brody’s the bad boy. Clark’s the strong, silent warrior. Amanda’s the girl. And Easton—well, Easton’s the panty melter.
I’m Kane.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s not a bad job. But usually, I’m not the one people are talking about.
That’s about to change. Because the woman I had a smoking hot one-night stand with in Vegas? The one I should have stayed far, far away from, since women like her are my kryptonite?
She’s the same woman my brother just hired to redesign his fancy new glamping RVs.
I haven’t seen her since Vegas, but the instant I lay eyes on her, I can tell my quiet role as the boy-next-door brother is about to change.
She’s pregnant.
And it’s mine.
“I DEVOURED this book—I’m talking less than 24 hours from start to finish!” —Dani, NetGalley
“I absolutely loved this book. It’s part of a series, but can be read alone. Such a fun romantic comedy. I couldn’t put it down. Absolutely recommend.” —Meghan, NetGalley
“If I could give this book more than 5 
, I would. I love the Wilder family so much and honestly, I was looking forward to meeting the ‘most chill’ Kane ‘Peacemaker’ Wilder and he did not disappoint.” —@tweetpreet
“This was my first read by Serena Bell and it was ADORABLE! … I loved the pace—it kept my attention the entire time, and I didn’t want to stop. The moments between Mari and Kane were *chef’s kiss* and the spice was GOOD! (Let’s talk about that camper scene after Kane came in from the rain, huh?)” —@libraryofleanna

Wilder With You is Now Available!
Wilder With You releases today! I admit it, I packed all my absolute favorite tropes into this book. Gruff but marshmallow-hearted hero who’s recovering from a broken heart, fake dating, only one bed (tent!) … and there are wedding shenanigans so everyone has to be all together, all of the time…
Find it here!
Who knew pretending could be so hot?
Clark: It started as a joke. After all, I’d never pretend to date a woman just to get my mom and sister off my back.
I would, however, pretend to date her to get her ex-husband off hers.
Now the two of us, the wilderness warrior and the wedding planner, are stuck sharing a very small tent. I had no idea how fast things would heat up in here, or how hard it would be to keep my hands—among other things—to myself.
I also didn’t guess how quickly the news of our “relationship” would spread to my big, nosy family.
We can’t “break up” yet, because she’s planning my brother’s wedding and I’m his best man. Through venue visits, DIY disasters, and Vegas trips, we’re thrown together, and the chemistry’s off-the-charts. But the kicker is, I feel like she gets me.
Maybe that’s what scares me the most. I’m still reeling from the loss of my wife, and she’s still hurting from her ex’s betrayal. There’s no way this can ever be real.
But what if I’m starting to hope it is?
★★★★★ “When I tell you I finished this book in one sitting, I’m not lying. I was addicted to this story on the first page, and I physically couldn’t put it down.” —@jsgoldenbooks, Instagram
★★★★★ “Grumpy but tender-hearted brother Clark is…. *chef’s kiss!* definitely my favorite Wilder Brother so far.” —Amy T, Net Galley
★★★★★ “I laughed, cried, laughed, was hot & bothered, repeat, repeat, repeat!” — Brooke M, Net Galley

His best friend’s sister is rocking his boat. In the best way possible.
Brody: What’s a bad boy doing hosting a book club on his boat? Excellent question. All I can tell you is, it’s not going well. I forgot the bug wipes, the extra TP, and the hand sanitizer, we’re out of wine, and… well, I may have made some people angry, if the reviews are any indication. The only way to dig myself out of this hole is to redeem myself by offering the best girls’ nights out in town.
Enter my best friend’s sister. I’ve gone out of my way to avoid Rachel, since despite her good-girl rep, I can’t seem to get her out of my head. Now she’s in my boat… and if I don’t watch myself, soon she’ll be in my bed. Things are going surprisingly well between us… but I know myself, and I’m not this guy. I’m the guy you want for fantasy fulfillment, not the guy you want for forever.
But what if I need this time to be different?

This tent is too small for the both of us. And I like it that way.
Gabe: I promised my dad I’d take care of the Wilder family adventure business, including my rowdy co-workers, AKA my brothers.
Now the business is in trouble. Rush Creek has become a spa-and-wedding destination, and the new tourists aren’t interested in getting dirty—at least not in the woods.
Then Lucy comes to town, all blond hair and silky blouses and spike heels. It’s her job to give Wilder Adventures a makeover. If she gets her way, Wilder Adventures will become Wilder Romantic Adventures.
Lucy hates small towns, getting messy, and anything involving the woods or the water—which pretty much makes her Not My Type.
That doesn’t explain why when I see her, I can’t look away. Why when I touch her, I can’t stop. And why, even though I know no one can talk a city girl into small town life, I’m still trying.
She’s driving me wild. All I can do is make her wilder.
