Molli Moran was born and raised in the South, and brings a love of all things small-town to her romances. She grew up with her nose in a book and her head in the clouds, and not much has changed since then. Molli found her own happily-ever-after on the West Coast. Give her Kay and coffee, and you’ve never seen a happier person. Other things she loves include road trips, the ocean, and Captain America.

You can find Molli on Instagram and Threads, wh ere she spends too much time (@bookedwithmolli). She’s not throwing away her shot.

I'd have to say Jamie and Claire Fraser from Diana Gabaldon's OUTLANDER series. Their temerity, passion, and courage has always inspired me. I love them as individuals and as a couple. And the TV show is just so darn gorgeous. (less)

Mini Review: A Lesson in Thorns by Sierra Simone

When librarian Poe Markham takes the job at Thornchapel, she only wants two things: to stay away from Thornchapel’s tortured owner, Auden Guest, and to find out what happened to her mother twelve years ago. It should be easy enough—keep her head down while she works in the house’s crumbling private library and while she hunts down any information as to why this remote manor tucked into the fog-sh

Quotes by Molli Moran  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“What we have...is something most folks wait a lifetime for, and only touch for a heartbeat. They let go too quickly, or they're too scared to hold on, or they never see what's right in front of them. But we're going to hold on as tight as we can." - Jonah Walker”
― Molli Moran, As You Turn Away

“This summer had been about finding herself, and learning to accept love in its various forms -- and to give love. - Quinn Reynolds”
― Molli Moran, As You Turn Away

“Hope has a way of growing up around you whether you want it to or not.”
― Molli Moran, As You Breathe Again: A Small Town Friends to Lovers Romance

“Live to the point of tears.”
― Albert Camus

“I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods

“What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.”
― Henry Stanley Haskins, Meditations in Wall Street

“Life would be a lot easier if conversations were rewindable and erasable, like videos. Or if you could instruct people to disregard what you just said, like in a courtroom.”
― Sophie Kinsella, Confessions of a Shopaholic

“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”
― William W. Purkey

Jennifer Comeaux Saw McMinnville on your profile and I had to smile. My late aunt had a farm near Sparta, and I remember seeing McMinnville on the map whenever we took road trips up there. We got lost quite a few times on the mountain roads! :)
