HEARTFELT THANKS TO YOU ALL

Hello Lovely People!

I’m sitting here with a warm cup of tea, reflecting on the incredible journey we’ve been on together, and I just have to say—I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for each of you. From the rockstar romance highs of Less Than Zero to the tumultuous love stories in Hate to Love You, and now the enchanting tales of The Charming Irish, you’ve been with me every step of the way.

It’s not just the books, though. Seeing your faces at signing events, reading your encouraging messages on social media, and feeling the vibrant energy of Kaylene’s KREW really fills my heart to bursting. You all are more than just readers; you’re a community, a huge part of my creative process, and a constant source of inspiration.

I want you to know how much your support means to me. Whether you’re sharing posts, chatting in the comments, or showing up to cheer me on as I scribble away at signings, your enthusiasm and kindness never go unnoticed. It’s your engagement that turns the sometimes-lonely job of writing into a joyous conversation.

Thank you for taking this wild ride with me, for opening your hearts to my characters, and for making every story release feel like a celebration. Here’s to more adventures, more unforgettable characters, and many more shared moments.

With all my gratitude, Kaylene.

HOPE & HARMONY

I’m thrilled to provide more news about the upcoming release of the “Hope & Harmony” anthology, a project I had the joy of putting together.

As someone who transitioned from being a band manager and promoter to a romance author, the idea of combining my love for music and storytelling into a single project has been a dream come true. “Hope & Harmony” is not just about the romance; it’s about supporting MusiCaresⓇ, a charity dedicated to safeguarding the well-being of music professionals, with all participating authors’ royalties going to this vital cause.

This anthology includes tales by some of the biggest names in romance, including Jaine Diamond, Jillian Liota, Layla Reyne, and Julia Wolf, alongside USA Today bestsellers like Chelle Bliss, Stacey Marie Brown, Kat Mizera, M. Robinson, and Becca Steele, not to mention #1 New York Times bestsellers Helen Hardt, Rachel Van Dyken, and Meredith Wild.

Pre-orders for “Hope & Harmony” are now open, and the anthology will be available on all major e-retailer platforms and in Barnes & Noble locations across the country starting January 18, 2025.

Thank you for your support and for being part of this journey. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of those who bring music into our lives.

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: HELEN HARDT

Speaking of authors who contributed to Hope & Harmony, let’s celebrate Helen Hardt’s newest release, Volatile Vice out on November 26!

In their volatile world, love might be the deadliest risk of all…

Vinnie Gallo lives for one purpose—to take down the empire of blood and corruption his grandfather has ruled for decades. He’s battled through lies, betrayal, and violence. He’s even given up the love of his life, Raven Bellamy, to protect her from the darkness that surrounds him. But the more he tries to push her away, the more she becomes his only anchor.

Cancer left Raven scarred yet unbroken, and she refuses to abandon Vinnie to his dangerous path. She’s prepared to stand by him, even as his volatile world threatens to consume them both. When she learns of a young girl caught in the crossfire, her resolve only strengthens. Turning back is not an option.

When an unexpected tragedy strikes and a treacherous secret is revealed, Vinnie is forced to face a brutal truth. He’ll do whatever it takes to burn his grandfather’s empire to the ground…and he’ll risk his last shred of humanity to keep Raven safe.

Happy reading!
