About Barbara Kellyn
Barbara Kellyn (www.BarbaraKellyn.com) writes the kind of stories that she loves to read: steamy romcoms fraught with amusing complications and taut sexual tension between a likeable heroine worth rooting for and an alluring hero worth the trouble of falling for.
The award-winning author of Morning Man, Déjà You, The Company She Keeps and her latest novel, Forever Endeavor, Barbara believes Nora Ephron is the G.O.A.T. of contemporary romantic comedy and has devoured her works in the hope she can soak up some of her genius.
Barbara thanks her lucky stars that she is living the kind of blissful existence that her characters can only dream about reaching before the last page.

Inspiration walked out on bestselling romance author Billie Mustard the day her husband blindsided her with divorce papers, leaving her clouded by writer’s block and soured on happily ever after.
Time-pressed to deliver a new manuscript about everlasting love, Billie embarks on an exotic vacation to find her muse, only to be forced to detour to dinky Janus Lake, a speck on the map known for its fishing and a bizarre statue of a Roman god in the middle of town. It’s bad enough that she’s missed her flight and stranded with a useless suitcase of beachwear, but now she can’t escape the small-town suckitude of Sonny Hayes, the surly grease monkey in a distractingly tight t-shirt who towed her car and seems to get off on pushing her buttons.
While counting the hours until she can leave, Billie’s imagination is revived by a 40-year-old tale of star-crossed lovers. She sets out to engineer the perfect happy ending that the story is missing, her unwritten book is lacking, and her marriage never got. What could possibly go wrong?

On-air chemistry brought them together, but sexual chemistry keeps them apart. After draining her savings, moving 300 miles and then being dumped on arrival by her boyfriend, Dayna Cook vows to stop falling for the radio jocks she works with. But when her new boss reassigns her to co-host Hot Country 103’s morning show with irresistible Tack Collins, Dayna’s hormones start backpedaling. Wake Up with Tack and Dayna kicks into high gear and so does the duo’s mutual lust. The boss warns that sleeping together will kill the sexual tension that drives listeners to tune in to their show – then clamps down with a chastity belt of an offer: stay out of bed until the ratings period ends in exchange for a big, fat bonus. For Dayna, it means a sure-fire way to get back on her feet-- and back at her ex. For Tack, it means the longest, most frustrating summer of his life. Sizzling attraction deviates in unexpected directions fraught with jealous radio groupies, a remorseful ex-boyfriend and a resentful partner as Tack and Dayna discover that genuine feelings create more static than casual sex ever could.

Seven years ago, college student Hill Taylor attended a journalism conference and ended up having an intensely hot hookup in a coatroom with a too-sexy stranger. Hill is now a successful publicist for rock’s notorious bad boy Tommy Kaine, who’s about to dish the outrageous dirt in a tell-all written by tabloid reporter James Spencer Sutton (aka The Hollywood Hatchet) – Hill’s coatroom hit and run. Problem is, Tommy’s got a secret that Hill has been sworn to protect and more importantly, keep the still-too-sexy Sutton from uncovering. Picking up where they left off seven years earlier, Hill and Sutton get swept up in a lusty fling. But with stakes much higher this time, not to mention a misguided proposal, a disgruntled movie star on the war path and a very pregnant sister with no filter, will it finally be love or loose lips that sink this situationship?

The Company She Keeps
Jan 15, 2021
$2.99
Talk about taking your work home with you... For better or worse, Harper Bukoski is married to her dream job at a small marketing agency. Thanks to the mismanagement of its morally-lax owners, it's on the brink of disaster. Despite the dysfunction around her--including a nagging suspicion that the clueless new account rep is her boss’s mistress – Harper clings to the hope that her loyalty and diligence will keep the office on an even keel. But the tightly-wound workaholic goes into a tailspin upon meeting Jed Sanderson, whose account is keeping the agency afloat. Harper is troubled by her undeniable attraction to a man with three potential dealbreakers stacked against him: he’s a client; he’s a recently-divorced father of three, and (the doozy!) he’s buddies with her disapproving boss. If Harper listens to her head, she might miss out on something extraordinary with Jed. But if she follows her heart, she risks imploding her career and bringing down the entire agency along with it.
