Finding Forever: A Limited Edition Wedding Romance collection

You are cordially invited…

All rise for a sizzling collection of wedding romances that explore what happens when love takes center stage. From forced proximity situations that lead to slow-burning chemistry, to mistaken identities that turn into the sweetest surprises, Finding Forever brings the perfect mix of tension, tenderness, and heat. As each couple navigates their happily-ever-afters, readers will be swept away by the charm and chaos that only weddings can inspire.

“The One That I Tease” by J. Keely Thrall 

One Night. One Dare. One Very Real Fantasy Man.

Movie star Evelyn Strong is in reboot mode—fresh off a divorce, preparing for her Off-Broadway debut, and ready to reclaim her bold spark… within reason. When she agrees to attend a wedding at a posh Long Island winery, her best friend dares her to throw caution aside and indulge in a one-night stand. 

Evelyn’s all in—especially when she lights a smoldering connection with her longtime secret crush after he rescues her from a creeper. That is, until she jumps to the wrong conclusion: the flirtatious architect is engaged. No amount of chemistry is worth the heartburn of a cheater.

But weddings are full of surprises. Between missteps on the dance floor and a steamy hallway second chance, Evelyn’s night shifts from fizzle to sizzle. 

Turns out Johnny Mack isn’t taken—he’s very available, very interested, and very good at honoring a woman’s boundaries… until she’s ready to burn them down.

Funny, heartwarming, and full of slow-burn tension with a toe-curling payoff, The One That I Tease is a story about chasing desire—and the unexpected joy of being seen, wanted, and teased in all the best ways.

The One That I Want

What do you do when your no-strings-attached, spicy fling stops being fun, and begins to turn serious?

I learned early on not to trust emotional attachments. So when Connor Mack, the nice guy I’m hooking up with, asks me out on an actual date, cutting him loose is a no brainer.

It’s a flawless strategy–until we’re asked to plan our best friends’ engagement party. Together. 

Working–and playing–with Connor during a long, hot summer in New York City is more fun than I’ve had in forever, but scarier, too. Because each luscious kiss and every scene we negotiate cracks me open just a little bit more, making me feel way too vulnerable for comfort.

Now my estranged parents have restarted their old, manipulative games, forcing me into a life-changing choice. Do I retreat and stay safe–or risk my heart going after Connor, the one that I want?

** The One That I Want is a funny, hot contemporary romance with 1) a sunny hero who insists on coordinating safe words, 2) a grumpy heroine whose emotional support animal is a stuffed camel, 3) chocolate chip cookie cravings, and 4) quite a variety of silk ties. **

That One That I Love

David and Celia Mack are at a crossroads in their marriage. While Celia winds herself into knots as she prepares to land the biggest client of her career, David intervenes to show her that no matter the outcome, she’s the one that he loves.

The One That I Love is a novella with dirty talk, role playing, a little light discipline, and chocolate. (That restroom from The One That I Want? Makes its kinky debut here.)

The One That I Crave

Grumpy lawyer Felix Mack has no idea what to do about ray of sunshine Romy Nightengale’s return to New York City. Can an unexpected road trip to the Adirondacks give her the opening she needs to show him that she’s the one that he craves?

This book is still in the works. Will report back when it’s ready to share!

The One That I Cherish

Widower Johnny Mack has dated (a lot) since the death of his childhood sweetheart four years ago. Compensating for loneliness? Yeah, probably. But he’s not looking for another forever kind of love. Been there, broke the mold.

When Johnny begins seeing Isobella, he figures they’ll have some fun for a while before going their separate ways. She’s on board with that. After two dud marriages, all Issy wants is a good time, not a commitment. Cupid has other ideas and soon Johnny finds he needs to convince Isobella she deserves to be that one that he’ll cherish for the rest of their lives.

This story is also more plan than reality at this point. Will keep you posted once I have this one on deck!
