💫 June’s Mini Romance Is Almost Here!

It started with lace. It ended with everything she didn't know she wanted.

💫 June’s Mini Romance Arrives June 6!
And it all starts with a dress she never planned to wear—and a man who never planned to fall.

Once Loved is this month’s Love in a Heartbeat mini romance, and it’s full of slow-burn tension, flirty dialogue, and the kind of tender heat that sneaks up when two people least expect it.

It’s not a second chance.
It’s the beginning of something brand new.

Here’s a peek:

Once Loved
She put the past in the window.
He walked in and changed her future.

Wren Rae isn’t looking to wear a wedding dress—especially not the one she packed away two years ago. But as she sets up her new secondhand shop in a small Tennessee town, she finally places the lace gown in the front window with a simple, handwritten sign: Looking for a new story.

Beck Mercer isn’t in the market for romance. He’s got a farm to run, a sister’s wedding to help with, and more to-do lists than hours in the day. But when he walks past that shop window and sees the dress (and the woman behind the counter) something unsettles the quiet life he’s built.

She’s not what he expected.
And he’s not what she wants.
But love doesn’t always ask for permission.

This story is about finding something meaningful when you’re sure that part of your life is over. It’s about love arriving in work boots, t-shirt, and a stubborn streak a mile wide.

Available June 6th—only to paid subscribers.
