01
Happy Christmas
To say Janie Rowland is down on her luck would be a Las-Vegas-sized understatement. And said luck only gets worse when she’s spotted by him while working a booth at the Clark Industries Expo.
​
She has barely tolerated Benedict Clark (yes, as in Clark Industries) around their mutual friends. He’s a huge flirt, gorgeous, British, always with an entourage. Entirely over the top.
​
She’s his total opposite. Low key. Craves routine. In bed by nine. Has, like, three friends.
​
But he needs a wife before the end of the year and she desperately needs cash. A lot of it.
​
Their encounter in Sin City leads to a mutually beneficial proposition—a fake marriage in exchange for his family trust and her big payday. She just has to survive one festive season in her tiny, holiday-themed hometown, Juniper Falls, pretending to be madly in love.
​
Contests, carriage rides, planned kisses and cozy photo ops. It’s all for show.
​
Until it isn’t.
​
Because the more he leans in, the more she lets go—and the more this perfectly planned ruse starts to feel dangerously real.
​
Happy Christmas is another laugh-out-loud, stamy but closed-door, swoony, slow burn romcom that readers have come to expect from Kelsey Humphreys, but complete with all your cozy holiday read must-haves! Perfect for fans of Christmas romances, Abby Jimenez and Katherine Center.

Christmas in July
Opposites attract in this hilarious, swoony, small town, contemporary romance from the bestselling author of the Heartlander series.
Harper Brown is determined to make the most of her little life in Juniper Falls. She keeps to herself, runs the bakery her father loved, and tinkers with his recipes to the delight of all the patrons of The Roasted Chestnut.
​
But these days there are, like, three patrons. Total.
​
So she’s relieved to learn real-estate billionaire Aiden Vanderwell is swooping in to save their town. A ski resort up the mountain sounds perfect…until the renderings reveal half of Main Street is set to become a parking lot.
​
In a rare moment of bravery, she decides to speak up and negotiate a deal with the devil. There are plenty of other holidays, they can go Full Send Juniper Falls on all of them and prove profitability. Satan gives her until July.
​
Aiden is…intrigued. He’s used to conquering one deal after the next. But the jolly borough refuses to fold. As he gets to know the quiet chef with flowers in her hair and secrets in her eyes, he realizes he may have finally met his match.
​
Christmas in July is another laugh-out-loud, steamy but closed-door, slow burn romcom that readers have come to expect from Kelsey Humphreys, complete with both holiday cheer and summer time vibes. Perfect for fans of Sarah Adams, Katherine Center, Abby Jimenez and Jenny Proctor.
