Contemporary Romance

Chemistry that refuses to be convenient.

June Whitlock’s contemporary romances are modern love stories for adult readers — grown-up characters with lives already underway, real complications, and an attraction that turns up at precisely the wrong moment and refuses to be sensible about it.

Warmer and more charged than the Hallenbeck short reads, these are full-length stories about desire, timing and the mess people make when they want something they had not planned for.

The Wrong Lease

Nora Bennett arrives at her new apartment expecting a fresh start. Instead she finds Eli Barrett already living there, holding a lease as valid as her own — and neither of them is leaving.

What follows is one bedroom, one sleeper sofa, and two people building a routine neither of them planned. Then an unexpected connection from six months earlier surfaces, and the arrangement they both called temporary turns into something far more complicated.

A warm contemporary romance about close quarters, unexpected timing, and one very complicated second chance.
