The Blog
If this is your first time here, I'm a romance writer and a misplaced city girl currently living in the wild Sierras.
I tend to have a lot of I-Love-Lucy moments that I share here but sometimes we talk about books, TV, and our favorite cookies. Okay, my favorite cookies. In any case, please feel free to comment by clicking on the Comments at the bottom of any entry. If you're too shy, that's okay, just know I love having you.
Ryder’s waiting. (You’re gonna want to meet him.)🥰
First—a huge THANK YOU to everyone who read (and posted about) The Love Fix… you seriously made my day. And Cali’s too!
But… guess what? My brand-spanking-new series is almost here! And I went back to my sexy romcom roots. 😍
💘 Introducing: The Colburn Brothers
A trilogy featuring three unruly, irresistible brothers where shenanigans abound, hearts race, sparks fly—and yes, there's even a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it mystery thread.
📘HE FALLS FIRST (Ryder’s story) – 8/5/25
📕FREE FALLING (Caleb’s story) – 2/26
📗I THINK I’M FALLING (Tucker’s story) – 8/26
✨First up: HE FALLS FIRST
Ryder Colburn: the grumpy brother.
He’s more comfortable in a toolbelt than around people. He restores old buildings because they don’t lie, break your heart, or expect you to play nice—or get themselves killed on you.
She’s sunshine.
He’s broody.
She wields a spatula.
He works with power tools.
Neither of them are looking to fall in love…
Too bad the universe (and one very judgmental parrot) have other plans.
🔥Want a little tease?
“You’re in my bed, half-naked, eating my pancakes.
Don’t tempt me to do something very, very unprofessional.”
Or maybe this...

💘HE FALLS FIRST has it all:
• Slow-burn tension
• A man who falls first—and hard
• A heroine who saves everyone but herself
• Pancakes, profanity (thanks, parrot), and lots—and I mean lots—of kissing
And just a little tease for good measure…

The Love Fix is LIVE – Ready to Fall in Love All Over Again?
THE LOVE FIX is officially out in the wild, and I can’t wait for you to dive into Lexi and Heath’s story! I’m hoping it’s like your favorite comfort food (maybe mac & cheese, or cinnamon toast!) — and when you start reading, it takes you away to a happy place.
We’ve got Lexi, whose life has been throwing her curveballs she’s had no time to dodge. And then Heath—a magnetic mix of rugged charm and adventurous energy, wrapped up in a body that’s all lean muscle and easy smiles. He has a way of making Lexi laugh one minute and setting her pulse racing the next. And having been hurt one too many times, she is not a fan.
So when they’re stuck in a situation where they have no choice but to… well, deal with each other, it gets messy. It gets complicated. It gets fun—in the best possible way.
This is the final (standalone) book in the Sunrise Cove series. If you love found family vibes, humor, heart, and maybe a few furry sidekicks, then The Love Fix is for you. I’ve packed it with second chances, redemption, and of course, a couple of people who have no idea they need each other… until they do.

I am beyond excited (seriously, I'm bouncing in my seat a little) to tell you that The Love Fix, the very last book (sob!) in the standalone Sunrise Cove series, is out now, and I can't WAIT for you to meet Lexi and Heath.
Oh, these two. Let me tell you.
We’ve got Lexi, who just might be a tad bit grumpy in the beginning, but her life was just blown up, so we’re going to give her a break. And then there’s Heath, who's basically a German Shepard/lab in human form. He’s got a lot of balls in the air (see what I did there?) and isn’t exactly ready to fall in love. Especially with Lexi, his childhood nemesis (hello, Second Chance trope…)
But because life (and meddling sisters – you know the type, bless their nosy hearts!) has a funny way of throwing people together, Lexi and Heath find themselves, shall we say, trapped by circumstances. And let me tell you, the sparks that fly aren't all sunshine and rainbows. We're talking a delightful journey from Friends to I-Hate-You to Lovers that might just set the pages on fire (in a good way, I promise!).
And because this is Sunrise Cove, you know there’s more to the story; a messy, beautiful journey of Redemption, and the heartwarming comfort of Found Family.
If you love characters who feel real, who make you laugh out loud, and who stumble their way to a happily ever after that feels earned and oh-so-satisfying, then get ready. Lexi and Heath’s story is packed with all of that and a whole lot more.
I truly hope you adore it as much as I loved writing it.
P.S. For those of you in Kindle Unlimited, the entire Sunrise Cove series is there!
She’s got a to-do list. He’s not on it. (Yet.)
How are you all doing? Here in Tahoe, the bears are awake, and they’re fond of our trash. This big guy comes by often to see if we've forgotten to lock our trash up. He's massive, and I call him VW because he's nearly the size of a Volkswagen Bug. (for the video I took of him, check out my Instagram!)
But I digress! I have had some early (wonderful) reviews for THE LOVE FIX, which is OUT NOW! (Sorry, did I yell that?)
Did I just tease you with Heath? Yep, sure did. I LOOOOVE him, and hope you will too. I’m just going to drop the links here for those who feel inclined to order in their favorite format (digital, print, and audio available!)

It’s here, it’s FINALLY here — BETTER THAN FRIENDS out now!
Hi Friends! I’m so excited -- BETTER THAN FRIENDS is FINALLY here in print, digital, and audio!!!! She's a complete stand alone in my Sunrise Cove series, so no pesky worries you're jumping into the middle of any ongoing stories. What's it about? I'm so glad you asked!!
When Olive Porter’s off-the-grid parents go missing, she reluctantly seeks out Noah Turner, her ex and the only person she both trusts implicitly and not at all.
As a special investigative agent for the National Park Service, Noah’s used to living under intense pressure. Or he was until he got injured on the job. Now unhappily recuperating at home while being smothered by his loving but nosy family, he’d love nothing more than a good distraction.
So when Olive shows up looking like a million bucks, he has to do a gut and heart check. Because nope, no matter what, he can’t fall for her again, the woman who once blew up his entire life and never looked back. How ironic then that his own personal hell (Olive) is also his ticket out of town. The question is, will the risk be worth the reward?
That’s all I’m gonna say. I’m mean like that. :) But I’ll tell you this, BETTER THAN FRIENDS is one of my personal favorites, and Noah and Olive lived in my heart for a long time after I finished this book!
Here are some buy links for your convenience. (Print readers, I adore you and I’m SO very sorry to let you know you'll have to order your print copy to be delivered, you won’t find BETTER THAN FRIENDS in Target or Walmart (I'm sad too!). Please know that I wish you didn’t have to take this extra step -- but I appreciate you doing so more than I can ever express!

New Adventures Await!
Guess what? I've got some exciting news to share!
First up, there’s a new member of the Shalvis family, brought by Santa. Meet Hank, aka Hank The Tank, aka Hankeroni! He likes inhaling anything resembling food, eating socks, and causing mayhem… :)
Second … my website got a new update and she’s looking cute! You can find it at jillshalvis.com. I've been working hard to create a space where you can learn more about me, my books, and even get an exclusive sneak peek at upcoming projects.
AND speaking of upcoming projects... drumroll please... Better Than Friends is only two weeks away! I can't wait for you to meet Olive and Noah, old flames who are unhappily reunited — and how ironic is it that the one person she never wanted to see again is the one person who can help her? I love this book SO MUCH! Can't wait for it to be on the shelves! (which, by the way, that's a figure of speech. The book will be available in print, digital, and audio, but if you're a print reader, you'll probably have to order it from an online retailer, sorry for the inconvenience!)

In the meantime, there's also this summer's THE LOVE FIX to look forward to, and the cover is adorable so click on the link and check it out.
I'd love to hear from you! What are you looking forward to reading?
Get ready to swoon…hard
Swooning Ahead Alert, but first …we have first snow in Tahoe! Okay, so it’s third snow, but this time it stuck around.
Back to the swooning. Actually, there are two swoon worthy things! First, it’s that time of year again. Did you know that THE TROUBLE WITH MISTLETOE was made into a movie? Starring this cutie Thomas Beaudoin!
You can stream it on Amazon ... or at Passionflix (where you do need a subscription but you can signup and unsubscribe at any time!)
And for swoon #2 … look no further than Noah Turner from my book BETTER THAN FRIENDS.
From the moment Noah walks onto the page, all big, bad, and sexy as hell, it was game over -- for me AND our heroine Olive. :)

BETTER THAN FRIENDS is a complete standalone in the Sunrise Cove series (I promise you, each book in this series stands alone, they are connected only by setting, no character cross over).
I’m just going to drop the links right here for your convenience, or in case you want to order yourself a little present and make my day at the same time. :) BETTER THAN FRIENDS is available in print, digital, and audiobook, but if you’re a print reader and usually get your copy in person somewhere, you won’t be able to with this one, you’ll have to order it from your store of preference and have it shipped, so sorry about that!

Your Next Book Boyfriend … :)
I heard a snowstorm was going to hit, so we hit the beach for one last fall-please-don’t-leave-us pic.
Gonna miss this! You know, not needing a hat, gloves, long down jacket, boots, and hand warmers. :) BUT it’s from this very spot that I wrote your next book boyfriend. Have you ever had someone reappear in your life, someone you hadn’t realized you couldn’t live without? BETTER THAN FRIENDS (a stand alone in the Sunrise Cove series) explores that idea, and I can’t wait for you to meet Olive and Noah. And let me just say, Noah … Every day I’d wake up and try to tell him what he was going to be doing on the page that day, and every day he’d do whatever the hell he wanted to do. And yet somehow, he’s STILL my book boyfriend. :) You’ll see…
For those who love to preorder, I LOVE AND ADORE YOU, and here are your links (keep in mind, you probably won’t find print in Target or Walmart, but you can order your print, digital, or audiobook from any of these links:)

Seeking new furry bff…
Please send all your good wishes for Cali — nothing’s wrong with her, we just told her she’s not allowed to sleep under our covers and use our pillows...
Hopefully, she’ll recover…
I’m typing this from my deck, where it’s 87 degrees at 3pm, but I’m sweating bullets because when I got up this morning and dressed, it was:
My body's confused! But I’m powering through it, busy putting the finishing touches on …BETTER THAN FRIENDS!
Like my last book, THE SUMMER ESCAPE, it’ll be available in print, digital, and audio, BUT also like my last book, you will not readily find print copies in stores.

Hope you’re having a fantastic day, you look MARVELOUS! Also, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my books and supporting my writing habit. XOXO!
So this happened...
Hey all, it’s been a week! Started out with me accidentally losing my outline that I’d just spent two weeks creating. After lots of tears and a pity party or five, and many, MANY cookies, I was able to recover it with Apple’s help. Whew! So thank you kind sir from another country and time zone. We could barely understand each other, but you didn’t give up and I’m eternally grateful!
And then, this happened. I took this pic from my backyard…
As I write this, the fire is now out, but I have a whole bunch of new gray hairs, and, thanks to the cookie consumption, my yoga pants are too tight... We were on evacuation warning, but thanks to CalFire, US Forestry, and a whole bunch of other agencies, it didn’t come to that. Whew!
And for MORE good news. THE SUMMER ESCAPE is out there for your reading pleasure, a madcap romp romance/mystery that has gotten so many wonderful reviews, I’m still blushing!

IT’S HERE, IT’S HERE!
Hi, so last week I was locked out of the house when I wrote my newsletter. This week, I’m happy to report, I’m in the house, but … sitting with a very sick cutie three year old who just coughed in my mouth. So there’s THAT! But the good news is … THE SUMMER ESCAPE, hopefully your next beach read, is finally here!!!!! (sorry about all the ! but I’m a little excited!)
THE SUMMER ESCAPE is a madcap romance/mystery that I wrote while recovering from a wicked bout of long covid. All I wanted was to be outside on some wild adventure, but since I couldn’t do that, I wrote the wild adventure instead. Sometimes, you just gotta improvise. :) To entice you, here's what people are already saying about THE SUMMER ESCAPE:
Two quick things. One, PLEASE buy this one. I mean, I have no problem getting another job. I could work at Taco Bell, I love the food. I could work at Target, I love red shirts. But I’d rather write. :) (fyi, as I’ve mentioned on socials, print readers are going to have a hard time finding this one in actual stores, so you might wanna order your copy online). Digital and audio are of course also available!

It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me…
Hi to my favorite readers! I’m writing to you from my deck, in the middle of a kinda crazy windstorm, because … I'm locked out. (hence the subject line in this newsletter, sigh) I should probably backup and start with my morning, where I hopped out of bed and stepped (barefoot!) into cat yak. That was fun. Then I accidentally put my box of cereal into the fridge instead of on the shelf. Yes, it could’ve been worse, I could’ve put my almond milk onto the cereal shelf… but I digress. Being locked out isn’t actually my fault. The man who calls himself my husband, “accidentally” locked me out there when he left for work. Thankfully my son in law loves me and he gave up a work call to come save me. All that to say … I got LOTS of writing done today! You are welcome. :)
THE SUMMER ESCAPE. will be here in 13 days!!! A wild, madcap romance/mystery, with the very sexy, mysterious Owen and the smartass, feisty Anna, so I’m hoping you’ll all run not walk to hit one of these buy buttons below for your favorite format (digital, print, audio…) and have THE SUMMER ESCAPE in hand on release day!

Oh and before you all go, I just wanted to say thank you for reading, for being here, for all the support you’ve shown me over the years. It means SO much to me.
Oh and one last thing, if you’re a KU reader, search for me there, I have a ton of backlist on KU right now.
Happy Reading!
Hot Off The Press AND a cookie recipe to boot!
Hey there to my favorite readers!! Guess what? It's cookie time to help celebrate my newest book THE SUMMER ESCAPE. Our heroine, Anna Moore, is very busy racing against the clock AND the sexy, enigmatic Owen Harris, so she isn’t baking. Nor is her sister and bff Wendy, but that’s because Wendy's about two years pregnant with triplets. :) BUT if she could see her feet, she would totally bake these. :) (It’s an old Shalvis family friend recipe and to die for)
Let me know how they turn out! :)
So, are you ready to embark on a new summer read? Order THE SUMMER ESCAPE TODAY! It’s got a little of everything. :)

SNOW? And Shalvis goodies!
The sun is out today in Tahoe and I think spring just showed up (I really hope I didn’t just jinx it!). Now, I know it doesn’t LOOK like spring in this pic of my backyard, but it's supposedly going to warm up and I am here for it.
Oh! Have you ordered my madcap romance/mystery THE SUMMER ESCAPE yet? Unfortunately, you MIGHT have trouble finding this one in stores (I can't control distribution, wish I could), but it WILL be available in print, audio, and digital (you just might have to order print rather than find it in Target and Walmart, because shelf space has shrunk so much, sob!). Anyway, I hope you’ll order and make my day, week, year! Need a tease? Ask and you shall receive…

Laptop death by chocolate and sale news!
This week, after too many many MANY weeks of late snow in Tahoe, we got in the car and drove southwest until we got to the ocean and warmth. Well, kind of. The storm chased us down here, but we woke up to gorgeousness. And the sun!
It was still a little chilly and I was considering switching careers to professional chocolate eater, but then ... I found the most interesting spot to write, inside this glass dome thingie that was deliciously warm! And so, dear readers, that’s how I came to be writing and eating a chocolate bar. Messily. At home if I drop crumbs, I just blow them away. As one does… But because I seem to have forgotten that the sun can be WARM … these crumbs didn’t blow. So then I tried to swipe them with my finger, but the chocolate had melted you see, into liquid, so all I managed to do was push the now melted chocolate between the keys on the keyboard. And stuck everything together. Hi, my name is Jill, and I’m Walking Chaos… Gah. ANYWAY, I’m here today to share some digital sales! Snatch ‘em up while you can at $1.99!!! Such a deal, right?

Spring forgets how to spring, and Jill writes a new book…:)
So spring decided she didn’t know how to spring, and then winter showed up again and dumped a foot on us over the weekend. We decided to make lemonade out of lemons. Or, you know, a snowman out of the mess of snow…
Crazy sauce, right? Also crazy … my next book is almost here! I’m so so so excited about THE SUMMER ESCAPE, because not only is it a romance, it’s also a madcap adventure/mystery! Now don’t worry that it’s #6 in the Sunrise Cove series, it’s a complete stand alone, I PROMISE!!! What’s it about? We have strait-laced Anna Moore racing the clock to prove her father’s innocence against enigmatic wild adventurer Owen … the two of them each needing to find the missing treasure for their own reasons. Anna intends to win, AND keep things professional. Only problem? Owen is annoyingly smart and sharp and ... sexy as hell. :) So yeah, good luck, Anna…
The great news? THE SUMMER ESCAPE is available to order now in your favorite format! Plus, by ordering now, you'd make my entire week. :) Hit the link here if you’d like to read the first chapter! Below are the buy links for your convenience.

And here’s a teasing little line from the book to further entice you…
What do we think? For those of you who will get this one, I’m curious — what format will you read?
Chicks, Piglets, and Goats oh my!
Sometimes a book idea hits me in the middle of the night and I tell myself DON’T FORGET THIS ONE! But … I almost always do. Well that, or I fumble for my phone and tap in some notes that rarely, in the light of day, make any sense — until THE BRIGHT SPOT! (Up for order now!) But then my entire family went to a fun local farm where we held newborn chicks, fed adorable piglets, and laughed ourselves silly at the antics of the goats climbing on each other.
So when the next night, I dreamed about a similar farm, this one in trouble, run by an underdog, down-on-her-luck heroine and a very sexy CPA who steps in to help, I knew I had to write it.

Luna Wright is a lot of things, but sweet and trusting aren’t on the list. Adopted at birth, with scant knowledge of her biological family, she’s created her own inner circle, a motley crew that helps her run the struggling but charming organic Apple Ridge Farm.
With a farm-to-table café as well as a menagerie of rescued animals (complete with a baby goat who keeps escaping to the pantry to eat Luna’s secret stash of decidedly not organic potato chips), it’s the best home she’s ever known. So of course things go awry, and the name of most of her troubles turns out to be an enigmatic, annoyingly sexy CPA named Jameson Hayes.
No one should have to change who they are to be loved. That’s not in question. But can Luna dig deep enough to find true strength and the real meaning of love and family? I’ll never tell.
Oh! I nearly forgot! I just got the cover for my other 2024 book release, THE SUMMER ESCAPE.
