My life was boring, so I decided to shake it up a bit.

With my life at the ranch changing by the minute, and not for the better, it seemed I would never find any excitement to fill my days.

They say to be careful what you wish for, and I learned that the hard way.

Walking in on a stranger trying on my teal coat, only to find out we slept together, was a shocker.

I didn’t remember a single second of how we met or what happened after.

Neither did he.

But apparently, everyone in town knew our business.

And the secret we were carrying around.

But before I got a chance to tell my new man any of this, things took a strange turn.

Bullets flying, men attacking every hour of the day, and neither of us had any idea why.

And that was just the bad stuff.

There was an undeniable chemistry between us, and keeping our hands to ourselves turned out to be harder than I thought.

But the infuriating man was insistent on keeping me safe.

And the whole time, all I really wanted to say was Shut Up and Kiss Me.

Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “Some of her best writing…Holy cow, this book! I was immediately immersed in Murky Falls! I could not put this book down. Im excited to read the rest of the series!”

Real Good Man ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review from C. Luna – “Real Good Man by Giulia Lagomarsino is the kind of small-town romance that sneaks past your defenses with humor, heart, and a slow-burn love you didn’t see coming—but end up rooting for with your whole chest.”

How Forever Feels ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “This author never fails to entertain. Her characters come to life. You live their emotions. Every. Book is it’s own adventure. Next book please!”

I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.
