Francesca Penn
33 books165 followersFrancesca Penn lives in Texas with her husband and son. While obtaining her Technical Writing degree, a creative writing course and play-writing elective reawakened her desire to create stories. Her brain lives in fiction; even the songs she listens to become music videos in her head.
When she is not writing, she can be found hounding her loved ones with multiple "What-if" scenarios. As a true closet romantic, she is prone to filling up her DVR with Hallmark movies. A friend once told her that she'd trained the whole 20 plus years she'd known her to write romance since her nose was always in a love story.
Francesca believes that love is colorblind and plans to provide a mix of couples of different races and ethnicities because - to her - men are like Skittles, and we all know their motto.

One word that describes HENRI & SANYA? SEXY!!!. This pair was SEXY. I loved, loved, loved their chemistry. When the two first met they had a cute connection. They had a lot in common they same interest in movies and shows. He understood and got her themes of the day and she just understood him. They meshed so well and were perfect together. Let me go back to the Chemistry, it leaped off the pages, their passion, friendship and sexual chemistry was so intense that even those around them were affected.
HENRI & SANYA both recently got out of relationships with people they should have never been involved with because their exes were HATERS. They didn’t respect them, they were users and disrespectful, and got everything they deserved.
I haven’t read a book, that the couple had this great of connection in a long time. The book was funny, sweet, sexy and the love scenes were HOT🔥🔥🔥 and little bit nasty😜😜. Ms Penn did a fantastic job with book.

Read book two last year Axel in Heaven and Searched for book one on kindle but could not find it. Finally it popped into my feed and I purchased on Amazon. Read it over 24 hours! So funny! Have read all the Variations of the founder’s island charters written by the three authors. Although this was a departure, this was a great story by a great story teller!

Hilarious and perfectly balanced
I really enjoyed this story. Sanya and Henri as a couple was perfect. Throw in Sanya's mother with her quirky personality Sanya had no choice but to be the girl Henri falls in love with. A definite must read.

Disappointed by the writing of this book. She is one of my favorite writers. Not sure if this was something written awhile ago and just pulled out the file folders.
I will be on the lookout for something newer from

Amazing love story
This book was a great example of when one door closes another one opens with more options and better opportunities. Henri and Sanya’s closed doors led to them finding their HEA with each other.

The premise of the book was basically resolved within the first 60 pages 😂 but this was still a cute book otherwise.
