The Style of Love

When Leah Henson lands an interior designing job for a new foster care home in Philly, sheโ€™s honored to contribute to a project that will help add joy to the lives of young children. But bumping into Manny Pullen, her archenemy from high school, quickly zaps the joy out of the holiday festivities, at least for her. He was the class valedictorian. She was the salutatorian.

But somethingโ€™s changed and no matter how much either of them tries to deny it, their rivalry is quickly fizzling into something their intellect canโ€™t figure out. Will Leah and Manny realize that whatโ€™s been boiling in between them all along has nothing to do with their decade-old rivalry in time to capitalize on the opportunity for love?

Find out in this short, enemies-to-lovers, holiday novella by best-selling author, Mya Kay.

 

Storms of Love

Ellie Rae McNeal didnโ€™t go to Hollywood looking for love โ€” but love may have found her anyway. As the lead stylist on a hit romantic comedy, this Philly-born entrepreneur is all businessโ€ฆ until a spirited five-year-old named Zoe Mattison dances into her salon chair with sass, sparkle, and a ponytail request that tugs at Ellieโ€™s guarded heart.

Then thereโ€™s Jeremiah Lewis โ€” smooth, successful, and unexpectedly familiar. Their meet-cute starts with a fender bender and ends with a wink and a promise over lunch. But what begins as a lighthearted flirtation deepens into something sacred as Ellie realizes that Zoe and Jeremiah arenโ€™t chance encounters โ€” theyโ€™re divinely placed reminders of everything sheโ€™s tried to forget.

As old wounds rise and buried trauma resurfaces, Ellie is forced to confront the question sheโ€™s spent a lifetime avoiding: Can she receive the kind of love that gives without conditionโ€ฆ or will fear convince her to walk away from the very thing sheโ€™s prayed for?

Battles of Love, 10/25

Itโ€™s been three years since Ellie and Jeremiah married, four years together, and life with ten-year-old Zoe seems to be going wellโ€”especially now that Ellie has landed a new movie role in Philadelphia. But the calm doesnโ€™t last.

As Jeremiahโ€™s new career as a childrenโ€™s book author demands more travel, he begins to grow distant. Ellie, used to their busy schedules, finds the safe, open space that once welcomed her heart now feels like a dark cave. She struggles to meet Jeremiahโ€™s needs while protecting her own, all while Zoe pulls away emotionally. Even her relationship with her father, Destin, is improving, while the bond with her husband and daughter seems to fray.

Then, a shocking revelation from Destin threatens to shatter her family, and the attention of her filmโ€™s director adds temptation to an already fragile situation. Can Ellie resist before she risks everything sheโ€™s built? Will Jeremiah honor the woman who has made him a better man? And can Ellie help Zoe before she completely shuts her out?

Battles of Love is the long-awaited sequel to Storms of Love, exploring faith, family, and the trials of love that test the heart like never before.
