Summer Beach Reading: Never too Early to Plan for Your Reading Pleasure, Starting with Flirt Fest!

Six romances where love arrives late, loud, and wildly inconvenient.

A fake boyfriend at a wedding.
A hockey fling that shouldn’t happen.
A sabotaged island salon.
A rescue mission gone delightfully off the rails.
A stormy seaside inheritance with a captain who’s too tempting to ignore.
And a kidnapped social worker in a nun’s habit who walks into a bar and turns everything upside down.

Filled with humor, heart, mystery, and irresistible chemistry, this collection brings you small‑town charm, romantic suspense, road‑trip chaos, and second‑chance magic—all in one binge‑worthy set.
Featuring:

All My Loving
Cynthia Cooke

One wedding. One pretend boyfriend. One love that refuses to stay fake.

The Groupie
Stephanie Queen

A no-strings fling between intense, ambitious Rylee and easygoing hockey lover Zak turns into a complicated tangle of hidden identities, broken rules, and secrets neither can outrun. Their expiration-date romance was supposed to stay simple, but Zak is falling first, falling hard, and falling straight into trouble.

Della
Denise Devine

An ambitious hairstylist arrives on Enchanted Island to open her dream salon, only to face sabotage, small-town politics, and a distracting artist who may be exactly what her heart needs. Sunshine, scissors, scandal, and romance collide in this breezy island love story.


The Wizard of Odds
Dani Haviland

An oddball rescue mission sends insurance-company coworkers and a self-employed massage therapist on a wild road trip from Minnesota to Arizona to save exotic animals from a black-market gambler. Along the way, mismatched couples, desert danger, and a menagerie of second chances make falling in love almost as risky as the rescue itself.

Sea Breeze
Susanne Matthews

A guarded woman inherits a seaside resort and returns to the town where she was born, hoping to claim her freedom and uncover answers about her past. But a mysterious, blue-eyed boat captain with promises of his own may tempt her into risking her heart, especially when a storm threatens everything she’s just begun to build.

A Whole Lot of Loving
Susan Jean Ricci

A kidnapped social worker in a nun’s outfit walks into a bar.
For a bartender still on parole, that should be the beginning of a very bad joke.
Instead, it’s the start of a chase, a cover-up, and the kind of chemistry neither of them has time for. She needs protection. He needs to stay out of trouble.
But trouble – and flirting – have other plans

Let the chaos—and the chemistry—begin.

Published by Susanne Matthews

Hi! I live in Eastern Ontario. I'm married with three adult children and five wonderful grandchildren. I prefer warm weather, and sunshine but winter gives me time to write. If I’m listening to music, it will be something from the 1960s or 1970s. I enjoy action movies, romantic comedies, but I draw the line at slasher flicks and horror. I love science fiction and fantasy as well. I love to read; I immerse myself in the text and, as my husband says, the house could fall down around me, and I’d never notice. My preferences are as varied as there are genres, but nothing really beats a good romance, especially one that is filled with suspense. I love historical romance too, and have read quite a few of those. If I’m watching television, you can count on it being a suspense — I’m not a fan of reality TV, sit-coms, or game shows. Writing gives me the most pleasure. I love creating characters that become real and undergo all kinds of adventures. It never ceases to amaze me how each character can take on its own unique personality; sometimes, they grow very different from the way I pictured them! Inspiration comes from all around me; imagination has no bounds. If I can think it, imagine it, I can write it!
