About this listen
A quirky holiday event, unexpected guests, and one Anti-Valentine’s Day to remember.
From the author of heartfelt small-town romances comes a story about love, heartbreak, and the power of community to help heal even the deepest wounds.
Grace never thought she’d spend Valentine’s Day hosting an Anti-Valentine’s Day Experience, but after her new relationship falls apart, she’s determined to make the best of a bad situation. Turning her inn into a haven for those who’d rather skip the chocolates and roses, she’s ready to face the holiday on her terms.
Her plan? Offer a one-of-a-kind event for guests who’d rather celebrate freedom than romance. The only challenge? Keeping her composure when her ex-boyfriend shows up—followed by his new girlfriend.
As the event unfolds, Grace finds herself surrounded by an eclectic mix of guests, each with their own story. With every shared laugh and surprising connection, Grace begins to see the beauty in letting go—and the possibility of starting over.
Will Grace find the strength to embrace love once more? Or will this Anti-Valentine’s Day be her undoing?
Countdown to Valentine’s Day is an uplifting small-town romance brimming with humor, second chances, and the promise that love can bloom even when you least expect it.
Curl up with this cozy tale today and rediscover the magic of love in all its messy glory!
*Each book in the holiday countdown series is a complete, standalone story, but thanks to the cast of recurring characters, they're much more fun when read in order. Read the entire series now!*

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Beckett: If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Story
It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks. When Molly arrives at Christmas House, the festive rental home that she and her family are sharing with her sister’s fiancé and his wealthy family, she discovers that Liam is one of the new in-laws. Oops.
