Can the festive magic heal her broken heart?

There is more than one surprise in store…

When Nessa Hunt arrives in Rose Bend she is looking for answers, and her absent father. Not a picture perfect town teeming with Christmas cheer, or the innkeeper’s ruggedly sexy son, Wolfgang Dennison.

The heat between her and Wolf is undeniable and the festive merriment of the town is almost enough to make Nessa believe in the Christmas spirit. But with lingering questions about her birth father, is there room in Nessa’s life for happy holidays and happily-ever-after?

Return to Rose Bend in a brand new romance from Naima Simone and Mills & Boon

‘Passion, heat and deep emotion – Naima Simone is a gem!’ Maisey Yates, New York Times bestselling author

Jenna Landon has spent her life aiming for perfection — and missing. The pressure and disappointment has been hard to deal with and she took it out on anyone in town, sealing her reputation as ‘mean girl’. Now she is ready to leave Rose Bend and start again. Only first she must help her family with the town’s carnival fundraiser. And endure her new neighbour who seems to do everything possible to annoy her.

Isaac Hunter didn’t mean to disturb his neighbour with his music. But if anyone could use ‘messing with,’ it’s prissy, perfect, sexy Jenna Landon. But soon their clashes turn into something hotter. Recently divorced, Isaac’s focus should be rebuilding his life, not an entanglement with a woman who spells nothing but trouble. Because Jenna is leaving Rose Bend. And they both know he can’t go with her, and he can’t ask her to stay…

It starts with an unexpected kiss…

Remi Donovan doesn’t know what possessed Declan Howard to sidle up to her desk and ask for a kiss—but she’s not about to turn him down. After all, she’s had a secret crush on the sexy-as-sin wealth manager ever since he set foot in Rose Bend two years ago. Still, why steal a kiss from a small-town librarian when a man like Declan could have any woman he wants?

For Declan, the plan is simple: fake a relationship with Remi to keep his matchmaking mother happy. As the charade brings them closer, it ignites something real—something neither can ignore. But before they can build a happy future together, they’ll both have to reconcile with the past…

The Husband Situation

by Naima Simone

Published 1 February 2024

A Christmas wedding could be the best mistake for Brooklyn and Patrick!

Waking up in Vegas married to her best friend wasn’t part of Brooklyn Hayes’ plan. But here she is in bed, clutching her throbbing head, staring down at a neon pink plastic ring on her finger, and next to Patrick King. How had a business trip turned into an elopement with not just her best friend but her sister’s ex?

Patrick doesn’t remember how he ended up married to his best friend. Returning home as a married couple is not a conversation he plans on having, so both agree to keep their indiscretion a secret. But the more time they spend together in Rose Bend the more uncertain both are about ending their marriage. While their impromptu nuptials might have been a mistake, the forced proximity and growing feelings may be the best thing that has ever happened…
