(April 2024)

A lot’s been going on behind the scenes, but hopefully soon it’ll be front and center and able to be shared! The biggest news by far, though, is one I’m doing a soft launch of (so if you’re reading this, congrats):

Coming August 1, 2024: Rehabbing the Billionaire, an indie romance novel about a billionaire CEO and his anticapitalist assistant’s marriage of convenience, written by me! Details and preorder link here.

Want to be on my beta reader team? Send me an email: brianna.castellini@gmail.com with the subject “Billionaire Beta Read”

What Am I Reading?

Don’t forget- I recommend 3 new romance novels every Friday over on my Substack newsletter, Forced Proximity!
