Thanks so much for checking out my bio. I'm Jenna Gunn, author of over 25 romance novels including multiple best selling titles.
My passion is writing thrilling action, high heat, suspense and rescuer romance books with fun and unexpected plot twists.
I love deep characters who overcome pain, mistrust, and damaged pasts to find their way alongside the mate of their dreams.
The men and women in my books have flaws, heart, fears and passion, just like we do—layers that make them slip into your heart.
All of my books are first person and include two Point of View. I mainly write MF contemporary romance, but have written MFM menage. It was super fun to write with three POVs.
Many books are in a series so you get to know the families, (5 brothers in the Archer Brothers Series, 5 brothers in The Eden Mountain Firefighters, and Teammates in the Agile Security and Rescue Series). All of the books are standalone and can be enjoyed that way too.
I've accomplished my dream as an author when my reader can drop into a book and forget the rest of the world.
In addition to dreaming up delicious heroes, I'm an avid to traveler, surfer, snow skier, and water lover. I'm known to spend long periods on the road with the husband and our pup in our camper van where I always pick up inspiration for my next book.

“He’s strong willed as an ox. Hard-headed as a ram. Protective as a wolf. All with a smoldering intensity that begs respect and order.”
This is book 4 in the Archer Brothers saga. In this book we follow along Bishops story and his path to happiness.
Bishop is the fourth brother in the Archer household and in previous books he’s described as being calm, collected, trustworthy and someone that keeps to himself after his divorce.
Bishop got married to the love of his life at only 21. When Mia packed and left, Bishop became a shell of his former self.
“The smell of her—that delicious mix of wild woman and lavender shampoo. It drops a shot of testosterone the size of a bowling ball right into my groin.
Oh, hell no. This is not happening.
I’m supposed to be mad at her. I’m supposed to fucking run like a wild animal away from this witch.
...
I try like hell to ignore the buzzing in my veins that threatens to turn me into a raving lunatic.
Something needs to happen fast. Either we better get rescued, or we better have an argument, or something to turn this train around because I’m like a ticking time bomb.
It’s T-minus two minutes til I kiss the shit out of her and regret it for the rest of my life.”
When destiny throws them back together (in a very tight place, nonetheless), they’re proven that their chemistry is still there an off the charts and their story isn’t over, not even by a long shot.
Mia is back to Lynn Cover after being away for nearly three years.
She’s an acrobat and when her uncle closes the act and runs away with everyone’s money, she has no other alternative tan to go back home. But that’s not all, Mia hides a secret that will change everyone lives forever!
“You’re teaching him bad things!”
I laugh. “It’s only the beginning.”
This book is angsty! So angsty!! I loved it!
Mia and Bishops story is beautiful, passionate and full of misunderstandings that thrown them apart.
I’ve loved the Archers and can’t wait to read Ty’s book.
“Ah, I see Bishop coming now.” She says, nodding toward the entrance.
“Oh boy, he looks like a bull about to crash through that door.”
Abby laughs. “That’s an Archer for you.”

Book four in the series brings Bishop and Mia's story. The author once again brings a strong cast of characters all centering around Bishop and Mia. It's a second chance romance with all the feels .. all the ups and downs that go with a relationship. She brings surprises . misunderstandings and mistrust , suspense and a never ending love. She pulled me in from beginning to end with her beautifully painted scenes and descriptive writing , flowing the story perfectly. I loved this book and would recommend reading.

•Oh So Swoony!!•
If you thought the other three brothers were impossibly swoon-worthy, then you are in for an incredible treat because Bishop is the ULTIMATE swoon!!
This is the fantastic fourth Book in the Archer Brothers series and it was amazing!! Mia and Bishop are a very complex, intense yet seriously steamy, sweet duo and I couldn’t get enough!!
Mia is a passionate, caring, driven woman and she’s back in Lynn’s Cove with an explosive secret! Her coming into the story was very different from the other woman in this series and I really enjoyed that. She’s no stranger to the Archer family, has a tumultuous past with them and not only has to figure things out with Bishop but also navigate her place with the rest of them as well.
Bishop literally had me melting from page one!! As the more quiet of the brothers, Bishop has been a bit elusive, but that left me dying to know so much more about him and boy do we get all his hunky goodness here. Like Mia he is different from the others, he is a go your own path type of person and doesn’t let the family legacy dictate his life. I really enjoyed that aspect of this as the legacy was almost its own entity in the previous books but it didn’t feel like that here and it was a nice change of pace.
The added twist into this was fantastic!! A little mystery/action that I didn’t expect going into it but it made for a fantastic, unique addition to the story.
This has become my favorite Archer book so far but I have been anticipating Tyson’s story from book 1 so I won’t count him out just yet! I will say Bishop will be extremely hard to beat though. Very excited to see what’s next.

Jenna Gunn has written a 5-star book. This is the story of Mia and Bishop. Mia and Bishop had been married until she received pictures of whom she thought was Bishop with another woman when she was in Europe working in her uncle's Circus as an Acrobat. A few days after she received the pictures, she finds out she is pregnant. She divorced Bishop and stayed in Europe for 2 years. Her uncle sold all the money and she has come back to Lynn's Cove since she had nowhere else to go. She and her son are staying with her friend Cassidy and her husband. Bishop works as a lifeguard with Ocean Rescue and he is at work when he sees a woman that looks like his ex-wife Mia. He has to take some Thank you cards to The Tides restaurant and he decides to take the stairs but is blocked on the fourth floor. He goes back to the third floor to catch the elevator. When the elevator doors open, he is staring at Mia. Things do not go well. The elevator breaks down and they are stuck together. The fire department comes and gets Mia out but Bishop can't through the hatch door. When Bishop gets out he goes down to the lobby and sees Mia coming out of the elevator. He goes up to her and tells her they need to talk. He finds out that she has moved back to town and he is not happy about that after she did him the way she did. He finds out when Cassidy brings Bruno to Mia that he has a son. He asks Mia "Where are you staying?" She tells him that she is staying with Cassidy. Bishop tells her that she is going to be staying with him at his house. Mia and Bishop have a talk and he gets to see the pictures that were sent to Mia. He tells her that the man in the pictures was not him. He said it might be his face but he did not have a tattoo like the man in the picture. She has credit card receipts and Bishop looks at them, then goes to his credit card account and shows her that none of the receipts are on his statement. He tells her that he thinks he was framed for something he did not do. They have a lot to work out and slowly they get things sorted out. Things are going well for them until Franco, Mia's former partner in the circus comes to town. Unknown to her, Franco was in love with her and he wants her to be with him. Mia and Bishop and Mia get into an argument and she tells him she needs some space and goes for a walk. She is on the beach, and she sees the ring she wore and thought she lost in the sand. Franco is there and he tells her that she was his. He takes her to the marina and they get on a boat and leave. Franco calls Bishop and tells him what is going on and gives him a place to meet him. Bishop calls his brothers for help. Franco tells Mia that he is the one who arranged for the pictures to be sent to her and that it was a good thing that she came back to Lynn's Cove so that she could end things for good with Bishop. She tells him that it is not going to work because she is a mother now. Franco tells her that Bruno is with his father and his family. Franco tells her that they can go back to Europe and reopen the show. When Bishop gets to the boat that Franco has Mia on, he doesn't see her but he does see Franco. All he can think about is getting Franco.
Will Mia and Bishop work things out and stay together this time?
This was a wonderful book and I would recommend it to anyone.

I received a free ARC copy in exchange for my honest review. This is my own opinion and was not influenced by anyone.
Bishop and Mia married young and loved hard. Bishop is a lifeguard and Mia is an traveling acrobat and aerialist. Stepping into an elevator after giving swimming lessons, Bishop comes face to face with Mia. It can't be her because he hasn't seen Mia for a few years now after she divorced him for cheating on her.
Mia is back in town and with 2 year old Bruno in tow. She tells Bishop she is back to live and work and oh yeah Bruno is his son. Conflicted but unable to hold his feelings at bay he moves them into his apartment. He still loves Mia even though she broke his heart into smithereens. Mia still loves Bishop even though he cheated on her. She shows him the evidence of his cheating: photos, receipts and the worst, a videotape. Finally seeing the evidence he points out the compelling reasons it never happened. Who would do that?
Falling back into their routine, Mia and Bishop play house while trying to figure out who falsified the evidence to break them up. As much as Bishop wants to move forward with the relationships he has fears that he will return home one day and she will have taken Bruno and ran. To top off his fears, Franco, Mia's acrobats partner arrives in town wanting Mia to join him on tour.
Do Over Rules is book 4 in the Archer Brothers series by Jenna Gunn. It can be read as a standalone and does have a happy ending. Each of the five books focuses on a different brother. This story has romance, a bit of mystery and action. The Archer brothers are loyal to each other and the ones they love. They can punch each other out but no one else can. It is fun to catch up with the brothers, their wives and their growing broods. I enjoyed that the story flowed and kept me reading. It felt like I was with old friends.

I voluntarily read an arc of this book for an honest review. Great, great second chance book! **spoilers**This book has such a charming cast of characters. I love seeing the previous books characters brought forward in each new story and the addition of new, exciting stories for each book. This book is about Bishop and Mia. Bishop has been devastated in the past due to Mia leaving and now...she’s returned. It’s a shock to say the least and she’s been hiding something or should I say someone? Mia was crushed when she was given evidence of Bishop’s cheating. She loved him deeply but couldn’t stay with someone who would do that to her. But she feels so guilty for keeping his son from him and she has nowhere else to go so returns to Lynn’s Cove.
When these two accidentally meet up again under less than thrilling circumstances it brings back so much emotion for them. She’s never gotten over Bishop and he’s loved her from the beginning. Mia know they need to talk so they set up a meeting to air things out, but plans rarely go as you hope. Enter Bruno, the cutest little 2 year old ever and the ball is certainly rolling. These two have a lot to work out but their love runs deep and they want each other so much. But someone from their past is coming back, someone who didn’t like them together before and is determined to make their separation permanent this time. Can they figure out how to love each other again and realize who their stalker is before they make their move? You have to read this to find out!

I was provided and ARC, for an honest review.
I jumped in the middle of this series with the story of Brandon and Anya, and it was just natural for me to want to read the rest of the series. Do Over Rules is about Bishop, one of the Archer's younger siblings and the brooding and constantly holding a candle for his ex-wife, Mia. Still submerged in the pain of what could have been and the confusion of not really understanding what happened between them, Bishop keeps himself existing in the borders of life, not actually living it. But what happens when the object of his affection comes back? What happens when life gives them a second chance??? A second chance at the life they always dreamt about? A second chance to understand what went wrong and give their relationship another try? What happens when that second chance comes with secrets kept that could destroy their new encounter?
Bishop and Mia are a force to be reckoned with. Unbridled passion, lust, desire, fire 🔥 (I will never look at a lifeguard tower the same way), love, adventure, all anchored in true friendship is what they share. The reasons that drove them apart come forth in this story, along with the need to find out why and maybe who 😉. I loved them as a couple and how though time had passed, what they feel for one another is palpable since the first moment they laid eyes on each other once again. As much as I loved the story, I gave it 4.3 stars simply because I would of loved the story to dig a little deeper and maybe extend the resolution just a tad. Despite that, if you have been following along the Archers, their is nothing better than to see Bishop smile again and thrive when he is surrounded by the woman he adores and is crazy about, and the lovable Bruno. Who is he you ask??? You will have to read to find out. Cannot wait to see what happens with Tyson.

In the previous books in this series, Bishop Archer is the brother who is most aloof and rather closed off emotionally. He is not looking for a relationship like his brothers have found. His heart is still tied to the woman who left him behind and divorced him after accusing him of cheating. Now he is keeping his heart guarded and spends his free time restoring a classic car. All that changes when his ex, Mia, unexpectedly comes back to town with his mini me in tow. Furious, confused and yet somehow elated too, Bishop insists that Mia and his son stay with him, at least till she can find a job and another place to live. Mia had been touring Europe with her professional acrobatic troupe when she received evidence of Bishop’s cheating. Encouraged by her friends to divorce Bishop and not to tell him of her pregnancy, Mia has traveled around Europe for years. With her son getting older, she has decided that he needs his father in his life and that she needed to return Bishop’s home town. The hurt from the past still stands between them, as does the mistrust, anger and even the love. Together they discover the lies that tore them apart, but moving past the hurt isn’t easy nor is finding the person behind the lies. Will their second chance at love finally result in a happily ever after?

Archer brothers were well known in the small town of Lynn's cove, all fit, handsome lifeguards.
Bishop Archer had had a rough few years, his wife had walked out on him after accusing him of cheating on her, Mia had been the love of his life and her departure had left him bitter and angry, Bishop had many chances of a further romance, women were always giving the handsome lifeguard their numbers but Bishop only had one love in his life and he wasn't looking for a replacement.
Mia Archer, Bishop's wife, had been an acrobat and trapeze artist with a travelling circus, her deep love for Bishop was broken when she was sent undisputable evidence of his cheating, she had no option but to leave and with the help of her aerial partner, Franco, she left for Europe.
When Bishop gets stuck in an elevator with Mia after not hearing a word from her for three years his emotions are in turmoil, and then he finds that he is the father of a two year old son.
The chemistry between Mia and Bishop is still electric but can Mia trust him, can Bishop get past the fact that Mia didn't believe in his innocence, could he forgive her keeping his son from him for two years.
The ending is a bit predictable but who cares, it is an enjoyable story with plenty of romance..

Do Over Rules is Book 4 of the Archer Brothers series, which can be read as a standalone or as a part of the overall series. It is the story of Bishop Archer, a lifeguard just like his brothers working as part of the family legacy, and his ex-wife Mia, a traveling acrobat and aerialist who walked out of his life almost 3 years ago after accusing him of having an affair. Bishop is a great guy who teaches kiddie surfing lessons but his heart is closed off after being broken by his beautiful wife’s accusations and disappearance.
Mia returns to their small town with a tiny 2-year-old son with the trademark Archer eyes and turns Bishops’s world upside down all over again. As they try to work to integrate their son into the Archer clan and overcome the hurts of the past, they must find a way to thwart an evil that has lied and manipulated to keep them apart for all of these years. Will they find love and get the happily ever after that they have been denied? This book is well worth the read to find out. The characters are engaging and the suspenseful plot twists and steamy love scenes pair well with the cuteness of Bruno, the toddler, and the charm of the rest of the Archer clan and their lovely ladies. Jenna Gunn certainly has another hit on her hands with this story.

This is book 4 of the Archer brothers series.
Bishop has been alone for three years, since his wife left him without any chance of explaining the misunderstanding that caused their divorce.
Mia is forced to return home after three years avoiding all contact with her cheating ex. The problem is she has a secret of her own. A 2-year-old secret with Archer blue eyes...
But did he really cheat? And how will his family react when they see she is back in town? Living in his house...
This book is a must read. A romantic page-turner that shows us how lack of communication can really ruin lives.
Can Bishop and Mia rebuild a relationship with all that's between them?

Bishop and Mia's love story is the fourth installment of the Archer brother's family saga. The story is set in the beaches of Southern California and starts three years after Mia divorced Bishop because she thought he was cheating on her. There are a couple of things that make their breakup very sad. First, they have a child that Bishop doesn’t know about until Mia comes back to town. Second, who in their right mind would divorce an Archer brother? One thing all the Archer brothers have in common is that they are big-hearted knights in shining swim trunks. Bishop is no exception and it was sad to see him in pain. He still loves his Mia and does everything he can to get her and their son back into his life. There are forces trying to tear them apart and a mystery they have to solve. Along with the sizzling love story, there was a very entertaining action-packed sequence of events that helped Bishop and Mia get to their HEA. This was a very entertaining read. Well-deserved 5 stars.

I am really loving these Archer Brothers. Do Over Rules - A Secret Baby Surprise by Jenna Gunn is about Bishop and Mia. They were married a long time ago and due to a misunderstanding, they had gotten divorced. Mia moved away to another country and had Bishop's baby and was now back. Things were very complicated and strained between them and there is also another complication hovering over their heads. I love how Bishop and Mia interacted with each other It was like she never left. They were very hot and steamy together, but both Mia and Bishop had doubts that this relationship would amount to something. I kept hoping that they would resolve their issues and even when another complication got thrown into the mix, I was on pins and needles hoping everything would work out. There was a lot of drama, but there was also a lot of steam too. I highly recommend reading this book and this series. I love the cover of this book too. Bishop is gorgeous!!!

4th book of the Archer brothers series. It is about Mia and Bishop. Bishop is the most withdrawn of the brothers not wanting a relationship at all. He had what he wanted and lost it not knowing the reason. Mia was that one he lost. She was on tour and received information with proof that he was cheating on her so she divorced him. Now years later she has returned so he can find out he has a son with her. When they meet accidently in an elevator feelings rush back in as neither has ever gotten over the loss. They decide to sit down and talk as Mia has something big to tell him. There is a lot going on in this story. Second chance love is it possible with these two? Especially since someone does not want these two together. How does Bishop react to having a son? Well you need to grab this and read it to find out. These books can be stand alone but best read as from book 1 so you know who is who and everything.

I don’t want to give the storyline away so I’ll be vague in my description.
This is the story of Bishop and Mia who divorced due to miscommunication within their marriage. They are reunited via an interesting situation and things spiral from there. There are lots of ups and downs, as true with any relationship and communication is the key to reaching happiness. This book reads much how most relationships in the real world go, never knowing what to believe and what to fight for. I think having the rest of the Archer Family so close (and so helpful with anything Bishop & Mia need) is something a lot of readers could relate to.
The storyline is very well written and although it is fourth in a series of five about the Archer Brothers, I had no problem following the story without having read the other books.

This book brings us Bishop Archer and Mia. This is book 4 in this series. Mia and Bishop were married, and then Mia saw evidence of something she thinks Bishop did. She left him. Now, she's back, looking for work in Lynn's Cove when she gets stuck in an elevator with Bishop. Bishop can't believe his eyes when he sees Mia, and more so when he spots her with a child. When Mia admits that he has a son. At first, Bishop is livid, but as Mia explains why she left him and he sees the evidence, he understands. However, whoever sent her the evidence did not have her best interests at heart. He and his brothers try to find the responsible person, while he and Mia becomes closer and Mia realizes she should never have left without letting Bishop explain. There is a twist in this story which makes sense. The ending - spectacular. I highly recommend this book. I did receive an arc for an honest review.

I have to admit I preferred the first three books to this one. I guess it was because Bishop didn't get much background in the other three books. Mia shows up back in Lynn's Cove when Bishop thought she was half a world away. Bishop has never stopped loving Mia. Mia divorced him because she got evidence that he was cheating. Bishop swears he never cheated. Mia introduces Bishop to their son which she had in Europe after she left him. Bishop is immediately smitten with his son and moves Mia in with him. His brothers and their wives make Mia feel at home. Bishop even finds Mia a job in an area close to her acrobatic background. The person who sent the damning evidence shows back up in her life convinced to make her his. Bishop will have to save her to make their HEA come true. Bishop is a loving guy who loves his ex-wife and son. Great read.

Reigniting A Hidden Love -
The first meeting between Bishop and Mia after their divorce confirms they still have unfinished business, but it would take the revelation of Mia’s secret to bring them back together. Unfortunately, someone doesn’t want them getting back together and throws an obstacle in their path to a happily ever after.
Like all the other books in the Archer Brothers Series, this love story is spellbinding, engaging and filled with enough angst and suspense, to keep you engrossed from the beginning until the end. Jenna Gunn proved once again that she has got a very creative mind and the talent to truly entertain anyone who picks up one of her books. The storyline has a deeper feel to it and that definitely pulls on your heartstrings.

Oh! I was waiting for Ty! But I got a really nice surprise here. Bishop and Mia, the name not to be spoken... and I loved it!! The quietest of the Arsher brothers isn’t as quiet anymore since he was stuck in an elevator. With her. With Mia. Yes, Mia. His ex wife. And so not ex anymore. After all that heartache they’re finding their way n’est-ce pas? The characters in this book are amazing, as those in the previous books of this series. A bit more so perhaps as there is a lot to work through without loosing your head. But he wouldn’t be an Arsher boy if he couldn’t get what he wants, would he?
Ben is lovely by the way. And proof that you can change your ways, even old as Methuselah.

Do Over Rules - A Secret Baby Surprise by Jenna Gunn is another great book in the Archer Brother series. Ms. Gunn has written another top notch story to keep our interest up through the whole thing. There are no dead spots at all in this book. Bishop and Mia had been married but divorced three years ago. Now she is back in Bishop's hometown after being gone for those years. What is she up to?. How does Bishop take her being back in town? I really enjoyed reading this book, it kept me interested. If I put it down it was not long till I picked it back up to see what was going to happen next. This book is a standalone and the other books in the series do not have to be read first but they are also excellent books and worth your time to read.

This fourth book in this series about the Archer Brothers was another delightful read. This story about Bishop and Mia was a second chance romance. Bishop is working as a lifeguard giving swimming lessons on the beach to kids when he believes he spies Mia, his ex wife. Afterwards Bishop goes to The Ocean Inn to give a thank you letter to The Tides restaurant and meets Mia in the elevator which they get stuck in. This meeting brings all the passion and the hurt of their breakup. Once free from the elevator Mia hurries to go to a job interview but Bishop wants answers so he waits and confronts her. When he finds out he's a father of a little boy called Bruno, what will he do? This ARC is engaging, romantic, and a dramatic story with wonderful characters I volunteer to read and review via Booksprout.

4 1/2 Stars!
The blurb was a great hook as I love marriage reunion romances! First time reading from this author and definitely left me wanting to read more of this series along with her other works.
This second chance romance clicked all the right boxes for me.
Even though Mia had left and divorced Bishop after receiving proof of his cheating, she remained faithful to him. I loved the way Bishop had never gotten over his ex-wife and the way he responded after seeing her after three long years apart.
A relational storyline featuring a quality couple. Full of heat, passion, and promise! This was a definite Treat!

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.
This is the first book I have read by Jenna Gunn, I really enjoyed it. This is the 4th book in The Archer Brothers series, it can be read as a standalone story.
In this second chance/secret baby romance Mia left and divorced Bishop as she believed he cheated. Bishop was utterly heartbroken when his wife left him and refused to talk about her decision. Now, Mia has returned home with a little Archer in tow, Bishop takes them in and is determined to find out who caused the break in their marriage and to have a happy family with Mia and little Bruno.

Do Over Rules is an emotional, angst filled, steamy, second chance romance that will keep you reading non-stop from beginning to end. I really enjoyed the love that Mia & Bishop shared and worked to get back after a mis-understanding caused their marriage to end two years prior. There is a bit of mystery involved that isn't really a surprise but how it is discovered and ends is. Although this is a stand-alone romance I highly recommend reading the other books in the series first so you get a better grasp of all the re-accuring characters throughout the series. I really enjoyed this read and will definitely be reading more from Jenna Gunn and can't wait for the next book in this series!
