My new book, Love's Second Chance, just released on Amazon today. It's available on KU and as an ebook or print. This story is a standalone sweet-clean romance, and is the first in a series of five books (which will release every two months from now).
Here's the summary of the story:
Katrina Bradshaw is a free-spirited photojournalist who has sworn off men.Â
Her love life up until now has been what she calls, "a series of unfortunate events." When she bumps into Jack, she wonders if he could be different than other men.Â
Jack Anders is a thoughtful young executive who lives life according to plan.
When his mom passes away, he reevaluates his priorities and considers taking risks. Meeting Katrina opens possibilities Jack had only dared to dream about.Â
A series of near misses threatens to keep Katrina and Jack apart.
Will Katrina look beyond her past and give Jack a chance?
Can Jack move through his grief to take a risk with Katrina?
What will it take for them to find a second chance at love?


I just found this group a few days ago and I'm so happy to be here. Just to let you know, I am totally looking forward to exploring this group.
About me, I'm an author of sweet small-town romances and just released the Hurricane Beach, my debut novel of the Southern Storms series.
Hurricane Beach
It's a sweet second chance romance with the excitement of unruly weather sprinkled in. (I've added it to the bookshelf if that's okay).
But besides writing, I'm a huge fan of watching Hallmark movies and reading sweet romances. I can't count how many times I've bought a book that I thought would be a fairly clean read and then discover within the first few chapters that it's more focused on what the characters wished they could do to each other than just getting along with the "story". A group like this with tons of recommendations for every flavor of clean romances neatly organized in one spot is pretty awesome, and I feel like I found a hidden treasure that'll take the guesswork out of finding new books to read. Once again, I'm so happy I found this group and hope to get to know many of you. :-)

If there is another place I should introduce myself, please let me know! I'm new to Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ groups. :)


Sparks fly in this opposites attract journey when a my-way-or-the-highway soldier collides with a determined woman on a mission to find her family. Can Kate and James learn to work together, even when their journey takes them from sleepy Worthy, Ohio, all the way to Ireland?
Check out book 1, Cassie's Secrets and book 2, Mia's Irishman of the series. All books in the series are stand-alone books but the experience will be better if you read them in order.
Kate's Quest: A small town opposites attract romance

My books do not contain explicit sex but do contain some bad language—probably no worse than you'd hear on a middle school playground—because "Zounds!" does not go far enough for some of the predicaments my characters find themselves in.
It's set in London and Essex in 1741. I try to get all details and background correct (do you know how hard it is to get from Maldon, Essex to London if you have to avoid the post road? Trust me on this), and to reflect the period as accurately as possible.

Bentonsport: A Christmas Story

Release - This Tuesday - Preorder now for discount —through Monday (pre-release discount).
What if you found the love of your life right in your hometown—in another century? Bentonsport—two different eras in one special town, two lonely persons, and one miraculous Christmas ...
For Bentonsport Academy Headmaster Thomas Barton, Christmas emphasizes his loneliness. He has given up hope of discovering a woman to share his heart and life and plans to return to his hometown for the holidays. But when his friend’s preposterous prophecy comes true, he finds himself having traveled not by train, but through time, from 1869, to Bentonsport today! Now he must navigate a modern world for the two weeks before Christmas and discover what he was sent to find.
Baker Sarah Peterson has everything she wants in the small historic town of modern-day Bentonsport—everything but a man with whom to share her dreams and future. And, in a town of under fifty residents, where’s she going to encounter a soulmate? But when Thomas walks into her bakery, seemingly odd and out of place, but handsome and charming, she finds herself hoping something special might happen this Christmas.

Set in Montana, the story is about overcoming loss through faith and a second chance at romance.
Following the tragic death of her husband, Susan Dixon struggles with the realization that the love they shared was crippled by his legacy of secrets and betrayal. Hoping to rebuild her life, Susan moves back to her hometown of Hidden Creek Montana. Settling into her family's cabin on the peaceful shores of Solitude Lake, Susan searches for healing in the rugged scenery.
Taking a summer job at the neighboring Solitude Lake Lodge, Susan rekindles a romance with her old flame, Jake Arnett. As the couple fall in love under the Montana skies, a past of heartache and missed opportunities haunts them. Susan needs to heal from her husband's betrayal, while Jake is afraid of repeating past mistakes. Can these star-crossed lovers let go of regrets and fall into a happily ever after?

Following her parents� death, Tilda Torsdotter turns to her cousin, Rakel, for help and joins her family’s preparations to head to California. Tilda’s job will be to assist pregnant Rakel with her two children under age five and receive the protection of Rakel’s husband, Albert. Then Rakel sickens and dies, and Albert looks to Tilda to fulfill her cousin’s duties--all of them.


Having a massive unrequited crush on the same guy for four years was not how aspiring poet Rachel had envisioned spending high school. Blending into the wall and being the most forgotten person in high school, sure! But pining for a guy for years?
She's realistic. Her mother has made her well aware of a fact that Rachel has known for years: Guys like Jaxon will never give a girl who has to hide her figure in baggy jeans and big t-shirts the time of a day. And he never has. But now that they are paired up in half their classes for her senior year, and she's having to spend way more time with him than is comfortable for her, he seems to be noticing her. Is that such a good thing?
Jaxon knows everyone and is more observant than people give him credit. He also also has a closely guarded secret that might destroy his reputation as one of the most popular kids in school if it came out. A perpetual ladies man who hasn't dated in years, he loves how Rachel blushes when he flirts with her. But suddenly, it's not all fun and games anymore, and the girl he thought was a harmless flirtationship is putting him at risk for getting in over his head.
In this tale of insecurity and love, Meg Danale explores how people can surprise us in all the best ways and how faith in our fellow humans can sometimes lead to something more.
Please note: This book contains sweet romance between late teenagers, some kissing, mild swearing, and a lot of angst. To experience the intensity and drama of young love all over again, get the audiobook now.
Her entire life Claire Brown has lived by the plan - the plan that will help pull her siblings and her family into bigger and better things. She follows a straight and narrow path with her future ever in mind. But she doesn't account for the heart wanting what the heart wants. She can't afford the inconvenience of falling for a guy she's admired since second grade. That sort of thing is for someone else who lives a life that isn't hers. Right?
At the height of his high school football career, already accepted on a full ride scholarship into the local U, Evan Carmichael is the epitome of QB golden boy - until everything comes tumbling down. Now he has to re-arrange his entire future and it seems like the only one who even remotely cares, besides his mom, is a girl who can't find the time for a relationship. And how does he know he's actually interested in her and this isn't desperation because his friends kicked him to the curb?

In Time for Christmas by Casi McLean is also clean and heartwarming. It contains fantasy/science fiction elements.

I write clean Christian romance (I know that may not be for everyone). But if that's you, I would love you to check out my new release, Taking Boston. It is free on all major ebook outlets.
Jake Wilson is something peculiar in the deep-south Bible belt town of Warner Robins, GA. He’s a single pastor. In his early thirties, he’s built a large, contemporary church with plans for an expansive building project. His six-year-old goddaughter, Boston, lives on the other side of the country. When her parents are killed in a car accident, she becomes an orphan, and Jake becomes an overnight father.
When Boston bonds with Jessica, a young divorcee from Jake’s church, Jessica becomes an integral part of their lives. Jessica awakens feelings in Jake he has long suppressed, but dark secrets haunt her. And when a vengeful church member learns of her past, he threatens to destroy everything Jake has worked for.
Now Jake must help both girls to heal from their traumas while fighting for the church he’s built. Can he be the father he needs to be? Can he help Jessica forgive herself? And can he save his church from the man determined to ruin him?
Taking Boston is a story of how devastating sorrow can sometimes bring the greatest blessings.

My new release will be available from Feb 12th.

Discover a story where passion meets tradition in the enchanting vineyard of Napa Valley. "Vines of Legacy" is not just a novel; it’s an invitation to witness a legacy reborn under the tender care of Emily Willow, a young vintner with dreams as robust as her vines.
When Emily inherits the dilapidated Willow Creek Vineyard, she’s determined to restore it to its former glory. Armed with determination and a love for the craft passed down by her late grandfather, Emily dives deep into the world of winemaking. But when James, a mysterious and charming representative of a big wine company, steps into her life, the story takes a delicious turn from enemies-to-lovers. Together, they explore the trials of managing a vineyard and the joys of finding love amidst the grapevines.
"Vines of Legacy" masterfully blends the rich complexity of winemaking with the sweet notes of romance. As Emily and James craft the perfect blend of love and dedication, they face storms both literal and metaphorical. The vineyard’s revival becomes a metaphor for their own rejuvenation- through hard work, resilience, and the occasional bottle of perfectly aged wine. Feel the soil under your feet, taste the sun-ripened grapes, and smell the oak barrels aging in old cellars as you journey through a story that celebrates the beauty of nature, the art of persistence, and the power of love.

I'm a new member - not a new author but I've recently started writing clean/sweet Regency romances (mostly novellas, so a quick read) as Elizabeth Leydin.

I decide to write clean romances because I found myself flipping over the sex scenes in the romances I read, muttering, 'Get back to the story!'
