DELIA: I’m really going to enjoy this vacation at the Love Lake resort cabins. Since I broke off my engagement to a man I didn’t love, I need some time to myself. Especially since the historical romance novels I write just don’t seem to be flowing easily of late, and I’m on deadline. I decide I need a palate cleanser, just someone to flirt with before I go back to the real world, and the pool boy looks like a good bet. He’s gorgeous, from his dimples to his hard-worker muscles. Those blue eyes sparkle like a freshly-cleaned pool…and he makes me feel so feminine and beautiful. Nothing wrong with a little fun, right? BECK: Okay, look, I’m not just a “pool boy.” I own the company. I’m proud of winning the contract for Love Lake’s resort cabins, and I take my career seriously. I don’t take advantage of my clients. But when the curvy beauty with big brown eyes starts flirting awkwardly with me, I notice her. In fact, I fall for her. Hook, line, and sinker. Immediately. She makes it clear she’s only looking for a fling, but I know what we have is more than that. If I can just convince her that the romance novels she writes can come true... Summer is here, and the lovin’ is beachy! Take a dip with fourteen of your favorite instalove romance authors for swoon-worthy stories of seaside steam, lakeside love, cruise connections, and riverfront relations. *wink* The Hot Happily Ever After Summer series of short, scintillating standalones is guaranteed to make you sweat.

Carly writes short romance stories as steamy and sweet as a triple-vanilla latte, served extra hot. If you’ve ever wished that a Hallmark™ movie showed what happened in the bedroom—in glorious technicolor detail—her books are for you! Grab your favorite hot beverage and join her for the fun. She loves chai, homemade mulled cider, Riesling and Beaujolais, and vanilla lattes (iced or extra-hot). Carly wrote her first love story at the age of ten, featuring tragic Romeo-and-Juliet deaths, and only much later discovered that she preferred stories where the lovers live, with happily-ever-after endings. She enjoys snuggling under blankets in the winter, and under the stars in summer. Loves kissing Mr. Right in exotic locations, as well as in their very own kitchen. She lives in Virginia with the love of her life and a goofball dog.
