Steamy Romance Author
Harlow James is a pen name I use to protect my identity as a high school teacher. Keeping those two roles in my life separate is necessary, but also fun! It’s like a live two lives, and anonymity gives me the opportunity to be bold and take risks in my stories.
I stumbled upon romance novels in 2018 when I picked up Driven by Kristy Bromberg, and I was obsessed. I had just lost my grandmother too, so reading offered me an escape from reality and a chance to grieve on my own terms.
About a year later, I got an idea for my own book and started writing. I researched self-publishing and jumped in with both feet. I had no idea what I was doing!
But now I’ve built a business and hobby that I LOVE! I have an outlet that’s just for me. When I write, I’m not a mom, a wife, or a teacher…I’m a woman who gets to tell stories that no one else can.
My books are the perfect blend of heartwarming moments, full-bellied laughs, and PLENTY of steam to melt your Kindles 😉 And there are always elements of me sprinkled in to every character and story that I write.
When I’m not writing you can find me reading or spending time in my kitchen. I love to cook and feed my family and friends. Otherwise, you can find me watching comedy specials with my husband, camping with our kids, or taking naps. I live for naps 😉

Blurb:
Falling for the single dad next door wasn’t part of my plan when I moved to Blossom Peak.
I accepted the teaching job for a fresh start, far away from the controlling ex I left behind.
But Rhonan Hart is everything you could ask for in a man. Strong, dependable, helpful, an amazing father to his daughter, Ellis… and looks beyond sinful in his sheriff’s uniform.
Except his daughter is my student, and he’s determined to pretend like our connection doesn’t exist.
(I’m determined to pretend he didn’t see me naked when my shower blew up, and he tried to save me.)
But soon, he’s sneaking over to my house at night—warming my bed, tearing down his walls, and making me want something I knew I couldn’t have.
My life is a mess, one I’m still trying to clean up.
But this man and his child give me a glimpse of a future I want, no matter what the cost.
Just when I think I’m on the path to moving on, fate decides to give us the test of time.
I just hope this is a test we both survive.

💚Review💚
Vienna has come to Blossom Peak needing a fresh start as she tries to not only distance herself from her ex but deal with an event that left a huge hole in her life. She never expected to see Rhonan again, so finding out his daughter Ellis was her student was a surprise but finding out he is her neighbor was an even bigger surprise.
Rhonan is still feeling the loss of his wife and is a devoted single father to his daughter Ellis. Even though he didn’t know it he originally met Vienna at a club and she was the first woman to make him feel since his wife. The connection that he and Ellis feel for her was unexpected but the more they spend together the deeper the feelings become however the past is about to return with a vengeance.
The banter between them is humorous, the romance is heartwarming, the relationship that both Vienna and Rhonan share is heartwarming, and the secondary characters make this story even more special. Aiden Snow brings out the protective side of Rhonan when it comes to both his girls while Ava Erickson brings out the spunky side of Vienna even after all that she has been through.
