New Releases by Julia Kent

There''s no way the hot relative of a minor British royal is hitting on her. She''s misreading everything, right? Except there''s no mistaking that proposal. When 50something Ranney Martini (yes, Nessa’s mom!) finds herself being courted by the very English best man in a minor royal’s wedding she’s managing, she can’t help but laugh. He’s 17 years her junior, smoking hot, and an award-winning architect. The flirting is all in her imagination. Of course it is. But when a strange twist of fate leaves them trapped in Las Vegas, and Tom has a sudden need for American citizenship - faster than fast - Ranney proves she’s the consummate professional. Because when you’re a wedding protector, you do whatever it takes to make the perfect wedding. Even marrying the very handsome best man. Ranney’s such a giver. ;)

Who accidentally has a one-night stand with her yoga instructor? Yep. Me. How did I accidentally sleep with someone, right? I know what you’re thinking. Whoops! I slipped and inadvertently inserted Tab A into Slot B. That’s not quite how it went. But my yoga instructor is really, really skilled with Tab A, if you know what I mean. Slot B never had it so good. What am I supposed to do now, as I walk into my yoga class and find the guy I ghosted this morning… there, in front of the class, perfectly aligned and grinning at me like he remembers touching all my chakras. He''s perfect. Too perfect. He''s so perfect he''s ruining my job. I''m an investigative reporter, working on spec for an article for a national magazine, and my job is to find all the ways this yoga chain is corrupt. The only thing criminal here is that I can''t have him in Slot B ever again. And I would. I''d turn myself into a paper doll book if that''s what it took for more of that action. I want him. He wants me. Nothing I do will make him back off because the chemistry is off the charts. Except for one pesky little thing: We’re at cross-purposes. I need my exposé to get the job of my dreams. He needs to sell his stake in the yoga chain before I expose the corrupt current owner. That makes him my enemy. My nemesis. The guy I have to get around to get ahead. And now we’re supposed to hate each other. But who ever let that get in the way of love?

Accidental poisonings. Unexpected tidal waves. Jealous stepsisters. Brides caught cheating in the coatroom at the reception. Just a typical day at work, when you’re a wedding protector. And Nessa Martini, the newest and youngest member on staff, is doing her best to fix it all. Starting with her own chaotic life. A one-night stand with a hot bodybuilding social media influencer who turns out to be a minister is not Nessa’s idea of personal growth, no matter how much she enjoyed it. She’s trying so hard to be mature, grounded, responsible, and to get ahead in her career working for Wedding Protectors, Inc., where they guarantee your perfect day – whatever it takes. But when she ghosts on Mr. Perfect after one night of pleasure and he turns out not only to be the TikTok sensation known as “God’s Gift,” but is also the minister at the wedding she’s assigned to for work, all of Nessa’s careful plans go out the window. She can’t date a man of the cloth. Or can she? Matt Draper knows he’s a study in contrasts. A bodybuilder who makes sweaty, shirtless weightlifting videos for millions of followers – and a minister? He didn’t pick the nickname “God’s Gift,” but he’s stuck with it now. And he’s stuck on gorgeous Instagram influencer Nessa, too. It may have been only one night, but it was a phenomenal night, and Matt wants more. Way more. When coincidence works in his favor and they meet at a wedding rehearsal, he takes his chance. She’s slow to warm, and so mysterious, yet social media perfect. Too perfect. For a guy who is all about depth and connection, can he break through her surface and find more? Welcome to the Whatever It Takes series, where every book is a complete HEA and a standalone within the same world, with one couple per book: Every bride needs something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue - But you know what brides don''t need? Complications. Welcome to Wedding Protectors, Inc. Have a spritzer or a latte or some lovely Zen tea and sink into a comfortable chair in our sunlit offices as we listen to your wedding problem – and form the perfect solution to every possible contingency. We plan for everything. Except our own love lives. But that''s not your problem. ;) Book 1: Never Plan a Billionaire’s Wedding Book 2: Never Fall for the Bride’s Father Book 3: Never Date the Minister

Power outages. Runaway brides. Collapsed wedding cakes. Tainted caviar. Handsy grooms. And the always classic: jealous MILs who wear white. No wedding catastrophe can faze Katie Gallagher, because when you plan for the worst, you deliver the best. The best wedding ever. Her company, Wedding Protectors, Inc., promises happily ever afters. Guaranteed. Whatever it takes. But always-prepared Katie? She’s steering clear of her own HEA. Years of dating older, wealthy, alpha businessmen who treat her like an ornament has left a bad taste in her mouth. And some bruises on her ego. Love is her job. Not her destiny. So when she falls for silver fox and self-made millionaire Patrick Cooper, she breaks a rule so taboo, it doesn’t technically exist: Never fall for the bride’s father. Enter Patrick, a widowed art dealer with salt-and-pepper charm. He can''t resist trying to share an Uber with the captivating, enticingly stubborn blonde. Their encounter? Classic enemies-to-lovers. Sparks fly, but not the good kind... at first. Starting off on the wrong foot left a terrible impression, but when a series of coincidences pushes them together, the more time they spend with each other, the more the lines blur. Chance favors the risk-takers, so when he takes a leap of faith and gets a passionate kiss that rocks his world, Katie opens closed doors in his heart. Can he really have a new soulmate — Or is this just a May-December fling? Enjoy book 2 in New York Times bestselling author Julia Kent''s wedding series, Whatever It Takes!

Rule #1: Don’t fall in love with the groom Stalker exes. Momzillas. Drunk uncles. Hurricanes. Jealous siblings. Paparazzi. You name it, Kari Whitevelt has seen it all. And that’s why brides and grooms hire her. Because she makes it all go away. Wedding Protectors, Inc., is here to make sure that special day stays special. Whatever it takes. No matter what. But when her newest client turns out to be her own long-lost high school sweetheart, rising tech star billionaire Caleb Mikelmas, suddenly Kari’s not sure whether she’s protecting the wedding couple — Or her own heart. Tech billionaire Caleb never thought he had a chance, much less a second chance with his first love and high school sweetheart, Kari. When a case of mistaken identity turns their reunion into one big misunderstanding, unraveling his feelings about the one who got away while supporting his brother’s nuptials means facing old demons. And kissing Kari. He likes kissing Kari far more than that whole demon thing. But if kisses were enough, Kari would already be his wife. Maybe it’s time to revisit the past and right some wrongs. One vow at a time. Welcome to the Whatever It Takes series: Every bride needs something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue - But you know what brides don''t need? Complications.

Ich bin ein verdammtes Meme! Ein Witzbild, auf dem ich nackt und verletzlich in sämtlichen sozialen Netzwerken bloßgestellt werde. Das kommt davon, wenn man seinem Freund im Anflug jugendlichen Leichtsinns erlaubt, Nacktfotos von einem zu machen. Fragt lieber nicht, damals ergab das für mich Sinn, weil ich ja sooo verliebt war! Doch dann hat dieser hinterhältige Mistkerl die Fotos auf einer Webseite gepostet. Dreimal dürft ihr raten, was danach passiert ist. Dank der immer besser funktionierenden Gesichtserkennungssoftwares werde ich auch heute noch - Jahre später - wirklich jedes Mal markiert, wenn jemand die Fotos teilt. Und ich habe es satt! Die Phase der Scham und Wut habe ich inzwischen überwunden, stattdessen will ich es ihm endlich heimzahlen - auf die gleiche Art und Weise. Er soll wissen, wie ich mich nach seinem Verrat gefühlt habe. Also zieh dich warm an, mein Lieber! Allerdings gibt es ein Problem: Wie um alles in der Welt komme ich an meinen Ex heran? Er ist mittlerweile ein Abgeordneter des US-Repräsentantenhauses und wird von einer Horde Politiker-Groupies umschwärmt. Damit bin ich nur eine von vielen, die zu ihm ins Bett kriechen wollen, wenn auch aus anderen Gründen. Denn ich will keinen Ruhm, sondern Rache. Und dafür brauche ich ein paar kompromittierende Fotos von ihm. Aber dann kommt es wieder einmal anders: Ich habe mich in ihn verliebt. Schon wieder!

How do you top the perfect wedding to the perfect man in the best hometown with the greatest best friends ever? With an even better reception. And how do you top the best reception ever? With the picture-perfect honeymoon in Fiji. Except…when our past comes back to haunt us, things don’t go quite as planned. I wanted hot sex on my honeymoon. Not hot sex being filmed next door. On the deck. With a cringe-worthy view that makes me feel inadequate. How do you bend like that? Anyhow… Will and I met on an adult film set (it’s not what you think…), so when those two worlds collide again, the perfect honeymoon becomes the perfect nightmare. Between a lascivious film crew in the adjacent beach house rental, a didgeridoo that doubles as something else that starts with D, an unexpected altercation with the police (again…), and some old friends (er, can I call them that?) from my fluffer days (again, not what you think), our extraordinary honeymoon has devolved into a fight for boundaries and — in the end — a stroke of genius. Which is not the kind of stroke we had in mind, but it’ll have to do. Because by the time we’re done untangling this mess, we find perfection again. On our terms. Just like love. --- Tasty takes place after Chapter 15 in the book Hasty, in New York Times bestselling romantic comedy author Julia Kent’s Do-Over series. Join Mallory, Will, and all their friends and family as they celebrate their wedding… and the outrageous honeymoon antics that follow.

There once was a man named Kell, Who fell under Rachel Hart’s spell. In public he proposed, Wearing dubious lemur clothes, Never guessing he’d end up in zipper hell. Kell Luview has decided to make Rachel Hart his wife after two perfect years together, and the man has plans. Big plans. Including a proposal so extra, it requires a lemur costume, a flash mob, his own rendition of “I Will Always Love You” on stage, and a surprise visit from her high-powered Hollywood parents and astronaut-in-training brother. But when that nostalgic lemur costume malfunctions and Kell finds himself stuck in a very delicate place, he is rescued by an unlikely savior. Love You Fiancée takes place in Love You, Maine–where every day is Valentine’s Day. It comes after the books Love You Wrong, Love You Right, and Love You Again. You can read it as a standalone, but it’s better if you read the other books first. No animals were harmed in the making of this story, but another lemur costume goes through a terribly unfair death.

Ana DaSilva is looking for a palate cleanser. A one night stand. A reboot. Instead, she got fireworks, sparks, chemistry, and the perfect guy. No one wants to meet Mr. Right when he should just be Mr. Rebound, but Mr. Right is so, so right. But then he went from Mr. Right to Mr. Never, because when she learns she’s pregnant three days after that wonderful night with Dennis, she realizes her sleazy drug dealing ex not only left her with the legal mess she knew about, he gave her a life-long present. One that means ignoring Dennis’ texts and phone calls, no matter how much she wants to answer. Dennis Luview wants to escape his pain. Coming back to his hometown of Luview, Maine - the cheesy tourist trap where every day was Valentine’s Day - means facing a past he left behind twenty-four years ago. Yes, his family is loving, and sure, he has roots that go bone-deep in the small town community where people step up for each other. But the naive eighteen-year-old who left to serve his country is now a retired Special Ops vet with a heavy entourage of ghosts and PTSD. No woman deserves all the baggage he’s lugging around. Including Ana, who clearly wants nothing to do with him, no matter how intense their one haunting encounter really was. It''s one thing to have ghosts, and quite another to be ghosted. Which is why six months after that hot night, he’s stunned to find her in his hometown, at a bridal shower, her ripe, pregnant belly swelling under a gorgeous yellow sundress. A public confrontation turns into a very private reunion, and as Dennis pursues Ana she opens up, but is he crazy to want her — and what turns out to be another man’s baby — to settle down and find stability and love? Or is he deluding himself that he’s remotely worth the happiness an instant family could offer, after his terrible past?

Two young do-gooders working to change the world find friendship and maybe more in a cutthroat business, but when the stakes are higher than they ever imagined, will a betrayal bring them together—or ruin everything? Kellan “Kell” Luview is a new man. He left his tourist-trap small town and his dad’s business behind in rural Maine for a position at an environmental policy think tank in Washington, D.C. More comfortable climbing trees than talking about them, he’s determined to stretch his wings as he builds a new life with an ambitious girlfriend and smart friends who are just as dedicated as he is. Despite his love for his work and the excitement of D.C., he feels pulled in too many directions when his girlfriend Alissa starts acting weird, his best friend Rachel needs an embarrassing, public rescue, and his mom hints that things are not going well at home in Luview–“Love You”–Maine, where every day is Valentine’s Day. As a shocking betrayal shakes the very foundation of everything he believes in, Kell must decide who to trust, who to challenge, who needs him most—and figure out fast whether Rachel’s warnings about his girlfriend are credible. Or yet another tactical maneuver in a city founded on them. Unraveling the mystery of who to believe pits Kell against Rachel in a battle where the truth is uncertain and hearts are just collateral damage as ambition rules over feelings. But Kell’s had enough. More than enough. Time to decide what kind of man he is—and who to trust. Love You Wrong is a novel-length prequel, introducing New York Times bestselling romantic comedy author Julia Kent’s new Love You, Maine series.

I don’t understand Americans. Or, as we say in Scotland, I dinna understand ye eedjits. And I definitely dinna understand the crazy mother-in-law of my cousin Declan. Who in their right mind names a wee dog Chuffy? I’m stuck in New York after ma agent makes a bloody mess of an otherwise good endorsement contract for a sports towel company, and this crazy American holiday–Thanksgiving–is in two days. The invitation to spend it in Mendon, Massachusetts, with the Jacoby family is about as appealing as rotten haggis. As far as I can tell, Thanksgiving is about stuffing yerself silly, watching pathetic American “football,” while fighting with relatives ye only see once a year. If I wanted that last one, I’d head back to Scotland, where we dinna need a holiday to be salty to each other. Ma firm answer is nae. Until I remember Amy is part of the family. Suddenly, I’m available. Eager, even. Perhaps she’ll pull ma wishbone. I hear that’s part of the Turkey Day festivities, aye? What I canna admit, though, is how she pulls ma heartstrings, too. Which shouldna feel better than the wishbone, but it does. And here comes Amy''s mother with another holiday tradition, this one a bit early. A sprig o’ mistletoe, dangling right above Amy’s bonnie head. –- Shopping for a Turkey features Scottish football player Hamish McCormick and Amy Jacoby as they navigate unusual cultural norms, new traditions, and the undeniable attraction between these two characters, who have appeared as supporting players in Julia Kent''s New York Times-bestselling Shopping series. It''s their turn to have their own all-new spinoff series. And to pull the wishbone. ;)

Josie was not one to pray, but lately she had begun having whispered, fevered conversations with God. With her legs up in the air and her husband’s baby paste inside her. Please let me get pregnant. Please let me get pregnant. Please let me get pregnant. * * * Laura turned her head away from the bathroom mirror, her eyes lasered on her smartphone, counting down the timer until she could look at the little plastic stick. Please don’t let me be pregnant. Please don’t let me be pregnant. Please don’t let me be pregnant. The timer dinged. Laura looked. Closed her eyes. And had a whispered, fevered conversation with God, too.

You know those television stories about the woman who goes to the emergency room thinking she has a bad case of indigestion or kidney stones or a burst appendix and she comes home with a bouncing baby boy? Stupid woman, right? Who the heck doesn’t know she’s pregnant for nine and a half months? I used to think those mamas were one block short of a level trailer. Used to. Random Acts of Baby is the 11th book in Julia Kent''s New York Times bestselling series as Darla, Trevor, and Joe go on a long, crazy journey involving a baby, living two lives, and learning who you can count on most when you need a helping hand.

I never thought my perp walk would lead to true love. Then again, I never thought I''d be arrested on RICO charges and hauled away in zip ties on camera for the world to see, minutes after closing the most amazing deal of my career. And all of it in front of my biggest rival, billionaire wunderkind Ian McCrory. I am broke. I am disgraced. I am alone. I am a sucker. But the worst part? I have to go back to my hometown and live in my bedroom filled with relics from my childhood. Lisa Frank never made me so mad before. Just when I needed a rescue, I got one -- in the form of help from my biggest rival. He can''t bring back my money. He certainly can''t bring back my reputation or my pride. But there''s one thing he can bring back to me. A sense of hope. Maybe even love. Ian sees something in me no one else does, and he''s relentless about making me see it, too. As we grow closer, I''m starting to see that while my entire life used to be a lie, the truth is staring me in the present -- and it''s a truth I like very, very much, hot eyes and gorgeous smile and all. But I have to be careful. I can''t be too -- That''s right. Hasty. The final book in the USA Today bestselling Do-Over Series (Fluffy, Perky, Feisty), as Mallory''s sister, Hastings "Hasty" Monahan gets her turn at a happily ever after that starts off with an arrest. Hers. And ends with a surprisingly cheesy happily ever after.

I’m not too proud to admit that finding Mr. Right involves swiping right. Right? Welcome to dating in avocado toastland. Here I am, on my first blind date, ever, courtesy of a smartphone app and my two annoying best friends. So what is Chris “Fletch” Fletcher doing, walking across the room, looking at his phone like he’s pattern matching a picture to find a real person he’s never met before? Oh. Oh, no. The guy I drop-kicked in seventh grade cannot be my blind date. The guy who earned me this infernal nickname. That’s right.

New Year’s Eve. Times Square. I booked the room over a year ago, with the view of the ball dropping. I’ll propose to Charlotte and drop to my knee at the stroke of midnight. At least, that’s the plan. But nothing in my life ever goes as planned. Between a last-minute gig that takes me away from her, a blast-from-the-past boyfriend of Charlotte’s, and the resurrection of Esme the blow-up doll, I have to fight for my right — To make her my wife. Charlotte. Not Esme. Because that''s just gross, man. What''s wrong with you? Liam is finally ready to pop the question to Charlotte after years together, but a last-minute gig and a heaping dose of fate in the form of Darla makes the road to marriage a little bumpier than expected. Welcome to the Random series, where people propose to chickens, snakes fall in love with blow-up dolls, cell phones become medical devices, and love conquers all, in tune and with three-part harmony.

FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR JULIA KENT One hundred years ago when I was young and impulsive (okay, it was five, alright? Five years ago…) I let my boyfriend take, let''s just say...compromising pictures of me. (Shut up. It made sense at the time). Surprise! The sleazy back-stabbing jerk posted them on a website and, well, you can guess what happened. That’s right. I’m a meme. A really gross one. You''ve seen the pictures. And if you haven''t – don’t ask. And don''t look! As face recognition software online improves, I get tagged on social media whenever anyone shares my pictures. You try getting a thousand notifications a day, all of them pictures of your tatas. So. I’m done. It’s time for revenge. Let him see how it feels! But how do you get embarrassingly intimate pictures of your jerkface ex who double-crossed you five years ago? Especially when he’s a member of the U.S.House of Representatives now? Getting sweet between the sheets with a congressman is pretty much every political roadie’s dream, right? I’m one in a crowd. Except to this day, he swears he didn’t do it. Pursued me for months after I dumped him five years ago. Begged me to take him back. And I almost did it. Almost. I was weak and stupid and in love a hundred years ago. Okay. Fine. Five. But I still have the upper hand. Second chance romance has all the emotional feels, doesn’t it? I can’t wait to punch him in the feels. All I need to do is sleep with him once, take some hot-and-sweaty pics of him in... delicate positions, and bring him down. That’s it. Nothing more. Pictures first. Revenge after. And then I win. At least, that’s how it was supposed to happen. But then I did something worse than sexting. I fell in love with him. Again. --- Read the whole series: Little Miss Perfect (FREE!)
