🍋🍸 POUR IT UP! LEMON DROP IS FINALLY HERE! 🥂💃🏾 ✈️ Topaz & Saadiq have officially arrived, and the FINAL love story of our Drunken Summer Nights vacation is ready for check-in! 🌴🍸 💋 Boss + assistant tension. ✈️ An unexpected escape. 🏝️ Island nights. 😍 Intentional love. 🚨 Lemon Drop is AVAILABLE NOW! Grab your copy at the link in my bio and head to Port Isle today! ✈️ #drunkensummernights #vacationromancebook #urbanromance #newreleasebooks #summerromance

Pack Your Bags, Besties! 🧳✈️🍋 ⏳ We’re only TWO DAYS away from Drunken Summer Nights: Lemon Drop! Make sure y’all come with your Kindles charged, drinks poured, and absolutely NO plans to behave! 🍸🌴 The only thing we’re catching on this trip is flights, feelings, and maybe a little trouble! 😏🔥 Who’s got their boarding pass ready?! 👀 🍋🍸 Drunken Summer Nights: Lemon Drop 🛬 ARRIVING IN 2 DAYS! #ellekayson #drunkensummernights #blackromancebooks #urbanromance #blackbooktok

🍸🍋 Coming really, really, really soon… 🤭💜 Topaz Waters has spent her life taking care of people. Between a demanding career as Saadiq Masters’s executive assistant, her family’s high expectations, and a relationship that values what she does more than who she is, she’s running on empty. When a humiliating discovery becomes the final straw, she escapes to Port Isle. For the first time in forever... She doesn’t have a clear plan. She doesn’t have set expectations. She doesn’t count on Saadiq Masters. Successful, steady, and impossible to ignore, Saadiq sees the exhaustion Topaz tries to hide. Though she insists she’s only on Port Isle to rest and recover, he gently pulls her back to herself—reminding her what laughter sounds like, what care looks like, and what being chosen feels like. As sunlit days turn into intimate nights, their connection deepens into something neither can ignore. On an island built for escape, they discover the sweetest indulgence isn’t the luxury around them—it’s the possibility of a love that feels intentional and real. But Topaz is wary. Once they return home, will Saadiq revert to the man who expects her to hold his life together, even when hers is falling apart? Or is it possible that the love he so carefully wraps her in during one unforgettable summer week can be not only an island escape, but an everyday reality? #lemondrop #ellekayson #blackromance #vacationromancebook #contemporaryromancebooks

Nine years later, and the man Kyleigh never expected to see again is back in Emancipation. 💜 Jabali left Emancipation and Kyleigh behind, now he’s back right in the middle of her life, her family’s Christmas plans, and secrets that have been waiting years to come out. And Kyleigh has absolutely no intention of making his return easy. There’s old heartbreak, unfinished love, family meddling, a secret child, and one very grumpy woman who might have to admit that the man from her past still has a hold on her heart. 📖 Rekindled Love is available now on Audible! Who’s currently listening to Kyleigh and Jabali’s story? 🎧 https://adbl.co/4ix3eKc #smalltownromancebooks #rekindledlove #blackromance #audiobooklover #audiobooktok

✨Lemon Drop is still loading, but just know Topaz and Saadiq are coming with enough chemistry to make the wait worth it. 🍋🔥 Boss x assistant. Forced proximity. Vacation vibes. He falls first, and a man who might be a little too good at taking care of her. 🫶🏾💛 🍋 Lemon Drop 🍸 Drunken Summer Nights ⏳ Coming Soon! Who’s ready for Topaz + Saadiq? 👀💛 #ellekayson #lemondrop #blackromance #contemporaryromancereads #blackbooktok

Topaz went to Port Isle desperate for a break from being everything to everybody. She never expected Saadiq to be the one man who finally made her feel cared for, chosen, and seen. Could you go back to being “just his assistant” after spending a week finding out exactly how your boss loves on a woman?
