⭐️ SURPRISE COVER REVEAL AND PAPERBACK SALE! ⭐️
Dear Readers,
This email is filled with exciting news so be sure to read to the bottom!
This weekend is the ten-year anniversary of one of my most beloved books and Goodreads Choice Nominee Stepbrother Dearest. To celebrate, I am releasing an illustrated, special-edition paperback!
I had to do one for Neighbor Dearest as well, since they are interconnected standalones! (That book features a character from Stepbrother Dearest who has her own standalone story.)
I had so much fun working on these with the artist, Sarah Jane. The books also feature all-new interior formatting. The best part? These release on Amazon October 2, THIS coming Wednesday. To celebrate the anniversary, I have priced both books at a steep discount at $10.99 each. They will be going up to the permanent price of $15.99 each with no warning before week’s end and will NOT be on sale ever again! Grab them at the special price while you can! Tell your friends! These are two of my favorite books that I’ve written.

Stepbrother Dearest Synopsis:
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER THAT STARTED A PHENOMENON…
From New York Times bestselling author, Penelope Ward, comes a friends-to-lovers story with sexy new characters.
After getting dumped, the last thing I needed was to move next door to someone who reminded me of my ex-boyfriend, Elec. Damien was a hotter version of my ex.
The neighbor I’d dubbed “Angry Artist” also had two massive dogs that kept me up with their barking.
He wanted nothing to do with me. Or so I thought until one night I heard laughter coming through an apparent hole in my bedroom wall.
Damien had been listening to all of my phone sessions with my therapist.
The sexy artist next door now knew all of my deepest secrets and insecurities.
We got to talking. He set me straight with tips to get over my breakup.
He became a good friend, but Damien made it clear that he couldn’t be anything more.
Problem was, I was falling hard for him anyway.
And as much as he pushed me away, I knew he felt the same…because his heartbeat didn’t lie.
I thought my heart had been broken by Elec, but it was alive and beating harder than ever for Damien.
I just hoped he wouldn’t shatter it for good.
Not when it’s Justin… the only person I’d ever loved… who now hates me.
When my grandmother died and left me half of the house on Aquidneck Island, there was a catch: the other half would go to the boy she helped raise.
The same boy who turned into the teenager whose heart I broke years ago.
The same teenager who’s now a man with a hard body and a hard ass personality to match.
I hadn’t seen him in years, and now we’re living together because neither one of us is willing to give up the house.
The worst part? He didn’t come alone.
I’d soon realize there’s a thin line between love and hate. I could see through that smug smile. Beneath it all…the boy is still there. So is our connection.
The problem is…now that I can’t have Justin, I’ve never wanted him more.
