The Watermelon Riot
What could be more boring than covering the local produce festival?
Old letters drew Scott Reneau from his high paying journalism career in Portland Maine to the small southern town of Gallatin, Arkansas. Now working for a rural paper, he found himself demoted and again staring at a pile of old letters.
Michelle Butler was a local girl from the top of her cinnamon head to the soles of her café au lait feet, but she'd been burned by big city dreams and men. When she decided to take a chance on Scott by sharing her family's passionate history, she hoped to catch the sexy reporter's eye, but her grandparents had other plans in mind.
Scott's world changes forever when local history mixes with Michelle, the newsroom wallflower, exploding in an uprising of emotions in The Watermelon Riot.

The characters are highly developed, as are the surroundings, and the story line. The sex scenes are explicit and hot hot hot! The ending will knock you off your chair. I sure didn't expect it. Good things really can come in small packages.

The Ballet
New Years Eve is a time to celebrate the year that's fled and cheer the year to come.
A ballerina before the tragic accident that crippled her, Rose Fineman sat through the big dance, waiting, hoping - for what she wasn't sure, until she spotted Ryan Moran. Her high school crush…but he was a soldier and she'd lost so much to violence already.
Too many wars, too many battles lay in Ryan's past, coloring his outlook on the future in bleak tones. That was, until he looked across a crowded room and saw a rare beauty being cruelly teased by her peers. He had nothing more to offer than the protection of his presence and his hand in a dance.
One dance, two promises, and a spark of love…will it be enough to hold Rose until Ryan returns from war?

(Editor's Note: This story contains explicit scenes of BDSM that may be offensive to some.)
What the reviewers had to say:
I loved this book. I enjoyed following the relationship between Jamie and Sarah from adolescents to adulthood. This is not just a story of a girl who loves sex and is not afraid of rough sex, but likes it. It is a story of unrequited teen love… The author did a wonderful job of not giving away the mystery until it's time and connecting the reader emotionally with all the characters involved. I highly recommend this book.

Ms. Glisan has written a book that will keep you reading until the final page. This book has everything: hot scorching sex, romance, and suspense. The sex scenes will definitely cause you to heat up quickly. You will need ice to cool off. The secrets discovered are shocking.
Sherry, reviewer For Coffee Time Romance
If I never read another erotic romance again, I will be more than happy that (Lessons in Love) was my final one. Melissa Glisan has written a riveting tale of love, lust, sex, and drama that kept me enthralled until the very end.

Holly's Happy Days
What do you get when you cross a prickly cocktail server with a glib, pun-loving college student? An unusual Christmas-time romance. Holly Giberti, the Shrew of Brew, is known for her slap-downs and standoffish manner until Jeremy Archer walks in, and steals her cynicism with a smile. Sparks fly as an innocent, joyous young man teaches a jaded older woman that she's worth loving, forever.
What the reviewers had to say
I had a great deal of pleasure from Holly and Jeremy; they could easily have stepped out of the story... The plot was smooth and had interesting twists. Jeremy and Holly's sexual adventures were amazing! I loved reading about the development of their love. The ending was incredible. I enjoyed Holly's Happy Days very much.
