Small Town Romance Collection: Four Complete Romances & A New Novella
Carolyn Brown - 2017
Red River Deep Tracey has a secret, and bittersweet memories that she keeps close to her heart. Maybe a brand new start in a brand new town would help erase the memories. An Old Love’s Shadow Mercy thought that what happened in Mexico was supposed to stay in Mexico but the secret followed her home to Oklahoma. Bride for a Day Cassie was on the run with a sheriff coming right at her and a handsome farmer close enough that she could touch him. Then she was married at least for a day—and his family wanted to know all her secrets. The Third Wish Jessica certainly had no desire to get involved with anyone once she’d found out the secret in her background, especially not the arrogant Rocky Rycroft. A collection that all Carolyn Brown fans will be sure to enjoy!

Marcelle Sixx - 2019
King of the Leprechauns. With a successful chain of restaurants underneath his belt and an amazing social media presence, one would think that his life was complete. Not exactly.

The bright and bubbly sister to the Dutchess of Lycan breeds, Diamond was always a hard worker and a constant beam of positivity. Being able to work closely with Jerome and hold the title as his best friend, somehow she misses the special privileges, the longing gazes, and the mouthwatering redhead before her. It's only because her sights are set on a worthless loser who uses her in an attempt to disguise it as real love. Underneath her will to force a relationship are her thigh-trembling fantasies about the lean, handsome and wealthy man known as Jerome. Jerome hopes for a window of opportunity to show Diamond that she is worth more than he's ever accomplished, but he'd need more than the luck of the Irish to undo Diamond's blinders and lock from her constantly broken heart. He must show her that she belongs to him and only him.
