The Christmas Rental

2021

She’s a curvy, tech-savvy project developer that hates commitment. He’s a hot bar owner with no desire to settle down. What happens when you rent a date for the holiday, but a phone app matches you to your forever-plus-one? Alexis Commitment wasn’t a priority. I was an independent woman and handled everything on my own, no man necessary. My family couldn’t understand the concept. So, I developed the Holidates app to help people like me who just needed a date to bring home to their families during the holidays. I tested it out on myself and my holidate turned out better than expected—nice, likeable, easy to be with. Of course, I forgot that relationships were simple when there was nothing on the line. No future, no heartbreak, no getting along for long periods of time. Then the unthinkable happened. We were snowed in and had to share a bed. No biggie. Until I realized I wanted to share more than one night. But a deal is a deal. And I wouldn’t break it...unless that’s what he wanted, too. Wesley I never met a woman who didn’t want a long-term commitment. So when a dating app matched me with Alexis, we were the perfect couple, blissful in our “for now” arrangement. I could survive anything for a few days. Except with her, I wasn’t just surviving—I was actually enjoying myself. When bad weather ruined our chance to go home and end the date, I was happy about it. I wasn’t ready to be done, so I bit the bullet and asked her to be my New Year’s Eve holidate, too. She agreed, but she didn’t know I planned to have her all the days in between. I wasn’t a resolution kind of guy, but if I was, I’d vow to convince Lexi to be mine forever. The Holidates Series Need a date for a holiday event? A family dinner with nosy relatives pestering you about settling down? The Holidates App is the perfect answer to your busy lifestyle needs.

Rent A Boo

2022

Sometimes you gotta fake it, till you make it. Ben Hoffman needs a fake date for his family’s annual Halloween party. Despite being the youngest National Medal of the Arts winner in US history, his hippie mom is always on his case about adding something meaningful to his life, LOVE. So rather than endure another year of her mournful eyes, he’s decided to rent a date using the Holidates App. Except the joke’s on him because Jess Darling is a smart-mouthed, curly-haired, banging-bodied, free-spirit who firmly believes art is the eye of the beholder and that has very little to do with training. Her perspectives go against everything he learned studying art history at Oxford. Things go from bad to worse when Ben and Jess are forced to share his childhood bedroom. He shouldn’t find her bohemian style attractive, or her glass-is-always-full-optimism delightful, when his own glass definitely needs a refill. Still, there is something in Jess that not only calls to him, but calms him, settles him. When the weekend is over, Ben isn’t so sure he’s been faking anything with Jess. In fact, he’s pretty certain he can’t imagine ever being done with her. The Holidates Series Need a date for a holiday event? A family dinner with nosy relatives pestering you about settling down?

Going Dutch

2022

‘Tis the season to get steamy... Blakely In my experience, New Year’s Eve is light on kisses, heavy on questions. If my mother feigns surprise while asking “No date again?”, I’ll shrivel up like the dry turkey leftovers we’ve been eating since November. I don’t care who’s on my arm this holiday season, so long as he’s hot enough to get me through to January unscathed. Problem is, this blind date is opening my eyes (and my legs) to desires I’ve never wanted to make permanent. But as we set the whole town to talking, my heart might upturn everything... Finn It seems I can’t be trusted with my own love life, so I’ve done what any good Dutch man would do—handed my dating profile over to my Tante (aunt). Imagine my mortification when the goddess who turns up is the same woman I ran into this morning...as in, literally ran into. With a large hot coffee that made the very close acquaintance of her expensive blouse. Kill me now. Thankfully, she’s not precious about her clothes—which is a good thing, because I can’t stop thinking about tearing them from her body. This mouthy siren thinks she just needs a holiday fling, but I’m going to need longer than that to tick off everything on the “naughty” list...

Hot for My Holidate

2023

What do a groundhog and a hot firefighter have in common? They’re both front row to my utter downfall. When I’m tasked with the most impossible event of the year it goes exactly how you would think. Dishes fly through the air, guests slip in animal poop and my new boss is red-faced mad at me. It’s the social event everyone will talk about all right, for all the wrong reasons. Epic fail doesn’t touch the damage I’ve done to my career with one large swoop. When a fire starts, my holidate finally shows up, but it’s not for me. No, it’s to save the day and add to my absolute humiliation. He plays dumb like he doesn’t know about the holidates app or that he agreed to be my plus one to this disaster. I should have known he was playing a mean trick on me. I’ve never gotten along with my devilishly handsome neighbor so why did I trust him? That was my mistake, but I won’t be sorry. That honor will be his. I’ll make him beg for my forgiveness.

Moonstruck at Mardi Gras

2023

Juliana Who knew a dating app would match me up with my long-time crush–my big brother’s best friend?

In her place is a curvy, classy, and compassionate woman who knows exactly what she’s looking for. Don’t even get me started on what those dimples do to me! We made a deal–take a fun trip as nothing but friends. No kissing, no touching, and definitely no sharing a bed. But when we broke that promise, all hell would break loose, too.

Nuts for Jeremy

2023

Claire I’ve trained hard in medical school and should be more than prepared for my new job. I’ve mastered my residency and know what’s expected. Plus, I was a star pitcher in softball. I can handle this. Yet it’s not the hot physiques and charismatic sex appeal of the players I’m concerned with. It’s the big brown eyes and captivating smile from the team manager. I pray Jeremy isn’t another player, like the members of his team. Because I’m no simple challenge to be met. I want someone who treats me like they won the pennant. Even if he’s totally off limits. Jeremy While I’m a part of the sport I love, I’m on the wrong side of the field. My childhood dream of playing professionally is no longer possible. Instead, I manage a bunch of arrogant ballers living the life I wanted. Relationships when you live on the road are hard enough. But I’m just a stepping stone for the women I meet. Using me to get to the jock of their choice. So I’ll stick with a one and done, thank you very much. No need for disappointment when you know the score. Yet why is it that every time the hot new team doctor is around, I’m tempted for more? Despite all of the reasons, this can’t work. But this isn’t the type of girl you score a home run with. Landing her would be like winning the World Series. The Holidates Series Need a date for a holiday event? A family dinner with nosy relatives pestering you about settling down?

Andie Bale lives in Ann Arbor (Go Blue!), Michigan, with her husband, daughter and awesome four-legged baby. Her love of reading started at a young age when sneaking her mother's romance books to read was the highlight of her day. Now, she is beyond grateful and excited to be able to bring the characters in her head to life.

Abigail is a Boston-bred Yankee now eating grits and saying "y'all" in North Central Florida. Technical writer by day, she doesn't don a cape at night, but spends her time writing passionate and playful contemporary romance. When she's not writing, she can be found wearing a corset and singing bawdy songs with Just Desserts, an a cappella musical comedy act, at places that won't throw them out. All hail low altos! Abigail lives with her husband, two kids, and one crazy princess puppy. You can keep up with her on Goodreads or at www.Facebook.com/AbigailSharpeBooks. She has a website, too, but it's horribly outdated, and she'd rather write books than fix the HTML. Only go there if you want to sign up for her newsletter, which she publishes sporadically.
