I LOVE hate-to-love, enemies-to-lovers, whatever you prefer to call the trope. For me, it comes second only to friends-to-more as my favorite! There’s something about the fury, the chemistry, the potential for so much emotional entanglement. It’s funny, since I’m not a huge fan of drama.

Childhood Sweethearts (+giveaway)

In recent years, retellings have even become so popular they’ve become their own subgenre in fiction. And it makes sense. The originals are clean and usually end happily. Good triumphs over evil. The impossible becomes possible. Romance. Magic. […]
Introducing my feathered friends from Australia (plus Love Blossoms giveaway)
By Narelle Atkins I love sharing Australia with my readers. My books are set in Australia, and I like to include native birds and animals in my stories. In The Bridesmaid’s Hero, my new novella in the Love Blossoms box set, I introduce my readers to Finn the magpie. Finn is loosely based on the family of […]
