Gum Tree Girl by Kalpana Iyer

About Gum Tree Girl by Kalpana Iyer

Free on Amazon from 9/5/2023 to 9/9/2023.

Sydney Cartwright is a woman driven by dreams: completing a teaching degree, getting a job that doesn’t leave her exhausted every day, giving her daughter a better life and finding people she can trust. But she’s tired. Tired of earning a precarious living as a night shift waitress. Tired of navigating a sleepless life as a single mum and student. Tired of hiding parts of her past to make herself palatable to unpalatable men. Armed with aspirations, she ventures out from the caravan park she has known as home ever since her mother left her at her stoic grandmother’s door and stumbles into the arms of a soft-hearted stranger — her awkward but perceptive physics lecturer Anand.

She soon finds him tearing down the walls she built around her heart to steel herself against the present and mask the pain of her past. As they piece together the puzzle born of her broken heart, they realise they’ve coloured the picture painted thereon with patience and trust to a degree neither has felt before. But when the rising tide of their love threatens to crumble their cautiously built castle and drive them apart forever, they are faced with the central question: how far are they willing to go to choose each other?

Louder Than Love

About Louder Than Love

FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME! It’s been over three years since a train accident made a widow of Katrina Lewis, sending her and her young daughter Abbey back to the suburban town of her youth…the only place that still makes sense. Lauder Lake is the perfect place to hide and heal.

Recluse rocker Adrian “Digger” Graves survived the implosion of his music career, but his muse has long lain dormant. Until Kat hires him to play at her library—not on the basis of his hard rock credentials but rather, because of the obscure kids’ TV jingle he wrote years ago. In a case of mistaken identity, Adrian stumbles into the lives of Kat and her comically lovable daughter.

Using tattoos as a timeline, Adrian unfurls his life for Kat. But as the courtship intensifies, it’s unclear whose past looms larger: the widow’s or the rocker’s. Will their demons ever rest, or will they break these soul mates apart?

Corrupt Me

About Corrupt Me

No good deed goes unpunished.

I knew that better than most, but it didn’t stop me from using my formidable reputation to save an out-of-depth woman being chased in a dark alley.

As an enforcer for the Donovan Crime Family, I had no time for strays let alone damsels in distress. My world was already complicated, with a turf war threatening my boss’s empire. All I wanted was to get her home safe and out of my life because I couldn’t afford any distractions, even if they came in a package as tempting as the dark-haired beauty.

I told myself she was off-limits, but she’s determined and hellbent on upending my world. Now I’m not sure when it’s all over if who I am will shatter her innocence or if she’ll be the one to corrupt me.

In the business of matchmaking and can’t find love? That’s me.
It’s always fun to find that special someone for our client, you know, the one they ride off into the sunset with.
But me? I just get burned by the sun, stung by bees, and wind up sea sick from the boat ride.
Unfortunately my twin sister and I made a pact when we were kids regarding this ‘love’ thing.
If we were unmarried at thirty, we’d really go ham on trying to find Mr. Right.
So thirty showed up. Go figure. But my should-be husband is apparently lost in the universe and refuses to stop and ask for directions.
Lucky for me, my firm (the matchmaking one) is going to make me go through the process of finding my forever guy for a documentary that’ll prove we’re legitimate.
I’d rather swim in the sewer, but that wasn’t an option.
The minute I start our ‘dating in the dark’ process, my mind opens to something I’ve never realized.
My best friend, the one that has been there all along, suddenly looked perfect. And hot.
Disturbing for sure. But soooo hot.
Now I’m stuck in the middle. Falling for my blind date and my best friend at the same time.
When it rains it pours. Apparently, men.
I have no clue who I should choose or even how I should do it.
Love has pushed me out for thirty years and now it’s decided to pull me in.

Date and Dash by Susan Hatler

About Date and Dash by Susan Hatler

A humorous story about a mistake leading to love that will give you the warm fuzzies.

Mary Ann Nielsen lives by her one-strike-and-you’re-out dating policy, but she’s always open to meeting the right guy. When she accidentally rear-ends handsome Trevor Brooks on her way to a charity auction to buy back her beloved grandmother’s long lost bracelet, she figures this unconventional meeting could at least turn into a hot date. Wrong. Trevor is annoyingly responsible and more concerned with insurance reports than responding to her flirting so he earns three strikes right off the bat.

Flustered from the car accident and being rejected by gorgeous Trevor, Mary Ann mistakenly bids on the wrong auction item and loses out on reclaiming her grandmother’s bracelet. Instead, she wins four dates on a reality TV show with none other than stuffy Trevor Brooks. Now she’s broke and the only way to get the money to buy back her special family heirloom is to win the grand prize money from the televised couples competition by convincing the audience that she and Trevor are in love.

While dating Trevor on the show, Mary Ann discovers the reliable analyst is fun and kind-hearted. In fact, the more she finds out about him the more she starts to fall for him. Could giving Trevor a second chance mean winning not just the TV show and her grandmother’s bracelet but the love that Mary Ann has always dreamed of?

A Crack in Everything

About A Crack in Everything

Life used to be simple. I was a city girl with humble dreams. Then Dylan O’Dea broke into my flat, held me against the wall and told me to stay quiet.

It was like in the movies, where the universe zeros in on a single scene. I looked into his eyes and knew he was going to change me.

For Dylan, the sky was always falling. He showed me how our world is a contradiction of beauty and ugliness. How we choose to ignore the awful and gloss over it with the palatable. How you need just a tiny drop of something unsavoury to create every great scent.

Pretty deep for a pair of teenagers living in a block of council flats in inner city Dublin, right? Probably. But we weren’t typical. We both had our obsessions. Mine was growing things, Dylan’s was scent. He taught me how to use my nose, and I introduced him to the magic of flowers. I had no idea that one day he’d build an empire from what we started together.

But before that, there was love and happiness, tragedy and epic heartbreak… My name is Evelyn Flynn and I’m going to tell you about the crack in everything.
