Important News About the Moonstruck Cove Series

I have important news today regarding the Moonstruck Cove series. I'm eager to make some changes to it, which means that the publication of Colton and Emory's book, Moonstruck Deal (Moonstruck Cove Book 2), will be delayed.

I've asked myself if it's really necessary to make these changes. In terms of providing you with interesting stories, probably not. But my creative mind works in a funny way. If an idea grips me tightly enough, I've learned the hard way to follow it even if it means diverging from my well-thought-out plans and schedule. Otherwise, I suffer from mental blocks and procrastination that are very hard to shift. Well, I'd been severely stuck for a good few weeks so I decided to finally act on my new thoughts.

You may know that Moonstruck Deal is about Colton and Emory fake-dating to win against their respective exes who are dating themselves! And, oh, the stakes are high.

As I was working on the book, this new title kept popping up in my head: Battle of the Exes. I have to admit that's catchier than Moonstruck Deal.

Then this new title for Moonstruck Dance (the stand-alone novella) also sprung to mind: Dancing with the Rock Star. If you've already read it, you'll know how apt this is for Theo and Gia's story 😊.

I've received some very lovely feedback on Moonstruck Dance, and it has been suggested that this story should be a full-length novel. Since I want to change the title anyway, why not make it so?

I'm therefore making the following changes to the Moonstruck Cove series.

1. Turn Moonstruck Dance into a full-length novel (yay, more of Gia and Theo!), give it a new title, and then publish it as the new book 1 of the series.

2. Make Moonstruck Kiss book 2 with a new title. I haven't settled on a final one yet, but it will include the words Single Dad.

I didn't want to leave book 2 of a series available for purchase when book 1 is not out yet (even though each book can be read as a standalone), so I've unpublished the ebook version of Moonstruck Kiss. However, the paperback is still up for sale because it's now become a special limited edition with its soon-to-be “old” title and cover. If you want a paperback that will never be available again anywhere (brand new), grab Moonstruck Kiss now. It will remain on Amazon until the end of September 2024 only.

3. Battle of the Exes, Colton and Emory's story, will become book 3. The preorder for the old title, Moonstruck Deal, has been cancelled, and I apologise to those waiting for this story. I promise it'll be worth the wait.

I'm excited to relaunch the Moonstruck Cove series in the new year! In the meantime, I'm also sprucing up a previously published series of mine. The last book in that series was actually the inspiration for the fictional small town of Moonstruck Cove. More on what I'm doing with that series in a future newsletter. Be sure to keep an eye out for it. To ensure you don't miss any updates, please subscribe to my newsletter.

By the way, if you haven't read the novella version of Moonstruck Dance yet, it's still currently FREE for a very limited time. I'll be taking it down in a week or two, so download it now while it's still available.

That's all for now. Thank you so much for your support!

Much love,

Miranda ❤️

Moonstruck Kiss is Out Now!

The day has come! Moonstruck Kiss is now available on Amazon and free to read in Kindle Unlimited.

Check out Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.

As a career-driven investment banker and a fish-out-of-water single dad, all I want is some help to bond with my son. I never thought that a gorgeous but smart-mouthed art teacher from a small town could have me risking my job. And, yes, my heart, too.

BRAXTON

I’m a workaholic investment banker with career goals at the forefront of my life—until I’m suddenly the sole parent of a four-year-old boy whose existence I wasn’t aware of until recently. Yup, I’m still picking myself up from the floor.

I love him already and want to bond with him, but I’m clueless when it comes to fatherhood. So, I take my son on a trip to small-town Moonstruck Cove to get a crash course from my parents on how to be a good dad.

What I don’t anticipate is my child instantly bonding with the town’s art teacher, the sassy—and beautiful—Joey Barker. It’s not ideal because that woman still holds a grudge from our clash a year ago when I was last in town.

When a potential big client decides that they want to acquire Joey’s family’s chocolatier business at any cost, I need to fire on all cylinders to keep my stellar reputation intact. But navigating secret dealings is not easy while I’m struggling to conceal my undeniable attraction for Joey.

I just hope she never finds out what I’m at pains to hide: That every time I see a smirk on that pretty face of hers, I want to wipe it off with an all-consuming kiss.

Moonstruck Kiss is a single dad, enemies to lovers, small-town romantic comedy with entertaining banter, swoonworthy sweetness, and steamy love.

THEO

I left small-town Moonstruck Cove years ago for greener pastures, and I’ve never looked back. Now I’m a rock star and loving my life.

I still visit occasionally to spend time with Gia, my best friend since childhood. She’s a kick-ass dance teacher who runs a dance studio attended by people from far and wide. I’m so proud of her.

I’m also in love with her.

But she hates my lifestyle and won’t ever leave Moonstruck Cove. So what chance do we have of making it as a couple?

I’ll tell you the answer.

Zip. Zero. None, whatsoever.

Then I find out that her ex is volunteering to help her through a crisis and save the day.

Will I let that happen?

No fucking way. I should be Gia’s hero, not him.

But there’s one big problem.

I. Don’t. Dance.

That’s why being my band’s drummer and co-lead singer is perfect for me. I’m on my ass most of the time. No need to gyrate on stage and look stupid.

With everything going against me, can I ever win the heart of the woman who calls me Heartbreaker?

Kerrod is Definitely Coming!

Hello, hello!

After a long wait, I'm thrilled to announce that my new book is coming out next month. Yes, I've finally finished writing Kerrod: The Redemption! It's currently in the editing stage and will be released on February 27.

I'm always excited to be sharing a new story with you, but Kerrod and Sophie's story is special. As some of you might know, so much “life stuff” happened while I was writing it, and I've had to hit pause a few times because I wasn't enjoying the story that I was putting on paper. Thankfully, the writer in me is back, more inspired and excited than ever.

Kerrod: The Redemption is the last book in the Indie Rebels series. You can preorder the ebook now from Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble and Kobo at the special preorder price of US$3.99 (normal price US$4.99).

It will eventually be available on Kindle Unlimited (and therefore exclusive to Amazon) at a time yet to be determined.

Book Description:

Kerrod’s identity as a criminal hacker is a shameful truth he’ll take to his grave. But how can he protect his secret when the woman he’s fallen for is the detective trying to identify him?

For Kerrod Keegan, his identity as the best hacker in the underworld is his most shameful secret. When he meets Sophie Heywood, emotions that he thought he’s become incapable of feeling stir to life. But Sophie is the very definition of the wrong woman. Because she’s a cop, and he must protect his secret identity from her at all costs.

For Detective Sophie Heywood, her inclusion in a task force set up to identify and catch the best hacker in the underworld is the best opportunity of her career. When she meets Kerrod Keegan, her life gets even rosier. Their out-of-this-world chemistry is something she’s never felt with anyone before. But can Kerrod be hiding something from her?
