EXCERPT


“Do you check your email?” she asks.

“Yeah.”

“Have you checked it today?”

“Uh, no. I’ve been working all day.”

She clears her throat, shifting her weight from one foot to the other. “May I ask you to let me see your emails, please?”

Excuse me? 

I press my lips together, curiosity getting the best of me, and pull my phone out of my pocket.

“Jess?”

“No, you may not see my emails.”

Her hands go to her hips. “Please?”

“What are you up to, Pip?”

She reaches for my phone in a quick, bold move. Unfortunately for her, I’m quicker. I hold it up in the air and effectively out of her reach.

“Please, don’t look at them. At least not with me standing here,” she says, hopping a whole foot off the ground to try to reach the device.

I chuckle. “What did you do?”

“Give it to me.” She hops again. “Now.” 

“Not a chance.” I swipe the screen and find my email app as she tries to tug my arm down. “Will you stop it?”

“Jess,” she says, fake crying. She stops hopping. “Wait.”

I laugh at her little pout. “You are so fucking cute.”

“I hate you.”

“You do not.”

The app opens, and I scan my inbox. It’s the third message from the top that catches my attention.

SEEKING AN EX-HUSBAND


I need a fake ex-husband. 

Let me explain … 

I may have let it slip to my new co-workers that I have an ex-husband. Now they’re fascinated with the details, specifically with him. 

Why wouldn’t they be? He’s gorgeous, has exceptional skills in the bedroom, and is determined to win me back. 

But there’s a problem. He doesn’t exist. 

The bigger problem? I have to produce him to save my job. 

This is where you come in. 

I’m seeking someone to play a smitten ex-husband for two weeks. You’ll need to remember our love story—details matter when it comes to romance! Please be prepared to travel in-state at a moment’s notice. We may be in close proximity and sharing a bed may be required. 

One more thing—kisses are required for optics as necessary. 

If this sounds interesting or, at the very least, entertaining, let me know.

Signed,

Your Future Ex-Wife

One of a Kind by Christine DePetrillo Cover Reveal

 We’re so excited to be part of the cover reveal and announcement of Christine DePetrillo’s upcoming romance, One Kind Hand! Check it out and be sure to pre-order today! 


 

 

Title: One Kind Hand

Author: Christine DePetrillo

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: April 27th

 


 

About One Kind Hand

What would someone accustomed to the glamour of Hollywood and the bustle of New York think about tiny, simple Maplehaven?

 

Charlene Moyen isn’t looking for a nice guy. With her teasing barbs and badass chopper pilot skills, she needs someone who won’t flinch every time she unleashes her quick wit and daredevil instincts. Unfortunately, Charlie’s small hometown doesn’t have any guys like that. It’s probably for the best. Her parents’ relationship hasn’t provided a rock-solid example of what love is. She wouldn’t even know how to be someone’s true other half.

 

Charlie is an expert at maneuvering her helicopter though. When an opportunity to feature her chopper in a movie being shot locally arises, she enters her name. She never expects to be filming with her favorite action-adventure actor, Austin Rayhill. Austin is surprised as well. He thought having a female pilot in the movie would be a good marketing move, but Charlie proves to be so much more than that. She pulls him out of his Hollywood world and gives him the dose of reality he needs.

 

After Charlie lends a hand to Austin during an accident on set, the off-screen chemistry between them soars. Until Charlie’s extreme flying pokes at the one thing Austin fears most.

 

Is one kind hand enough to bridge two worlds?

 

 

One Kind Hand is a meeting-your-movie-star-crush, small-town, contemporary romance that features a tomboy heroine and a famous, big-screen hero who have more in common than they realize.

"The town, the people, the love story... a perfect romance."

Today she writes tales meant to make you laugh, maybe make you sweat, and definitely make you believe in the power of love.

 

She lives in Vermont with her husband and many woodland creatures who defend her fiercely from all evils.

Title: More Than Cocoa

Author: Christine DePetrillo

Genre: Small Town Romance 




 

About More Than Cocoa

How could he have betrayed his own brother? His identical twin brother. The only true family he’d ever had.

 

Detective Rachel Lorensen has played so many roles in her undercover work with the Boston Police Department that she’s not entirely sure who she is anymore. Taking down the bad guys satisfies her and she loves the thrill of solving difficult cases, but something is missing in her life. Something she thought she had once. Something she wouldn’t mind having again.

Former news anchor Harris Wilder just completed sixteen months in jail for making some bad decisions. Though his brother has offered him a place to crash, he is eager to get his life back on track, but ties to his former journalistic glory have all been cut. He’s facing a complete reinvention of himself and doesn’t know where to start. He’d thought life on the outside would be easier than prison life. Now he isn’t so sure.

When one steamy kiss mistakenly gets Harris involved in Rachel’s latest undercover case, the safety of seventeen missing women is on the line.

So is the mending of two broken hearts.
