Beta Readers Forgot to Eat Dinner. That's How I Know This Book Is Ready.

Book Besties,

I have news and I am BUZZING.

Bad Blood and Blue Water is coming March 1st, and I can barely contain myself.

This book has been living in my heart for a while now, and I finally get to share it with you. It's a contemporary cowboy romance with feuding ranches, a slow burn that will make you hold your breath, and two people who have every reason to stay apart -- except they can't.

How to Not Fall for the Guy Next Door by Meg Easton
Rate this book
Clear rating
The neighbor-next-door trope done right! I loved the push and pull between these two — their banter had me grinning the whole time. Meg Easton really knows how to build that slow-burn tension while keeping things sweet and swoony.
Lucy McConnell added a status update: Currently in my royal romance era and Royal Agenda is the reason why. The palace intrigue keeps you guessing while the slow burn builds and honestly I keep coming back to reread my favorite scenes. Adding this to my comfort reads list forever.

“Time is clearly not our natural dimension. Thus it is that we are never really at home in time. Alternately, we find ourselves wishing to hasten the passage of time or to hold back the dawn. We can do neither, of course, but whereas the fish is at home in water, we are clearly not at home in time--because we belong to eternity.”
Neal A. Maxwell

“There is no passion to be found in playing small—in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living,”
Holly Stevenson, Don't Kiss the Heartbreaker

“A non-writing writer is a monster courting insanity.”
Franz Kafka

“Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them.”
Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid
