Sometimes, I wish I weren't a Hawke...especially because I'm in love with one.

Years of living on the streets taught me one hard lesson…

Don’t trust anyone.

People are inherently bad and will do bad things any chance they get.

So, when the Hawkes took me under their wings…

I put up walls so high that no one could ever climb over them.

Most stopped trying.

It was the way I liked it.

Locked away in my own little world.

Protected from anything that could hurt me.

But the very person I try so hard to keep out is the only one I want to let in.

I dream about her touch.

Crave her in a way I have no right to.

She’s my best friend’s older sister.

No matter what…I have to keep my hands off Angelina Hawke.

Reticent Hawke is the second book in The Hawke Family Second Generation Series from USA Today Bestselling Author Gwyn McNamee. Grab this angsty forbidden, reverse age gap, best friend’s older sister, contemporary romance about a broken man, an older woman, a danger neither of them sees coming, and desire neither of them can deny.

Gwyn McNamee is an attorney, writer, wife, and mother (to one human baby and two fur babies). Originally from the Midwest, Gwyn relocated to her husband’s home town of Las Vegas in 2015 and is enjoying her respite from the cold and snow. Gwyn has been writing down her crazy stories and ideas for years and finally decided to share them with the world. She loves to write stories with a bit of suspense and action mingled with romance and heat.

When she isn’t either writing or voraciously devouring any books she can get her hands on, Gwyn is busy adding to her tattoo collection, golfing, and stirring up trouble with her perfect mix of sweetness and sarcasm (usually while wearing heels).

Gwyn is the author of The Hawke Family series, The Slip Series, The Deadliest Sin Series, The Inland Seas Series, The Supernatural Love Stories in the Absurd (written as her alter-ego, DP Payne), and several stand-alone novels.

Cover Reveal for Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray

 I’m thrilled to share the cover of Stephanie Dray’s super anticipated new novel BECOMING MADAM SECRETARY, which goes on sale March 2024, tracing the life of one of America’s unsung heroes:  Frances Perkins.

 

 

Cover Reveal for Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray

Genre:  Historical Fiction

544 pages, Hardcover

Expected publication March 12, 2024

 

Taken from Goodreads: New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Dray returns with a captivating and richly dramatic novel about American heroine Frances Perkins, who pulled the nation out of the Great Depression.

Raised on tales of her revolutionary ancestors, Frances Perkins arrives in New York City at the turn of the century, armed with her trusty parasol and an unyielding determination to make a difference.

When she’s not working with children in the crowded tenements in Hell’s Kitchen, Frances throws herself into the social scene in Greenwich Village, befriending an eclectic group of politicians, artists, and activists, including the millionaire socialite Mary Harriman Rumsey, the flirtatious budding author Sinclair Lewis, and the brilliant but troubled reformer Paul Wilson, with whom she falls deeply in love.

But when Frances meets a young lawyer named Franklin Delano Roosevelt at a tea dance, sparks fly in all the wrong directions. She thinks he’s a rich, arrogant dilettante who gets by on a handsome face and a famous name. He thinks she’s a priggish bluestocking and insufferable do-gooder. Neither knows it yet, but over the next twenty years, they will form a historic partnership that will carry them both to the White House.

Frances is destined to rise in a political world dominated by men, facing down the Great Depression as FDR’s most trusted lieutenant—even as she struggles to balance the demands of a public career with marriage and motherhood. And when vicious political attacks mount and personal tragedies threaten to derail her ambitions, she must decide what she’s willing to do—and what she’s willing to sacrifice—to save a nation.
