SWEETHEART Cover Reveal!

Confession: I missed the actual cover reveal (I sent it to my newsletter, FB and Instagram but forgot to blog :/).

Then I remembered!

SWEETHEART has an ebook and a paperback cover! I love them both and wanted to share before Scarlett & Sam’s book comes out this Thursday, eep.

So today, we have a double cover reveal for my upcoming YA romance SWEETHEART!

Hooray!!! Stephanie Anderson designed the gorgeous ebook cover! I’m so thankful to her for her amazing work! I hope you love it as much as I do.

And without further ado…

…here is the cover…

…of my YA romance…

SWEETHEART! <3

Again, I love, love, love it!!! The colors, the romantic pose, the swoon are just perfect! <3

For the paperback, I actually illustrated and designed this one! Yay!!! 😀

And here is the paperback cover of SWEETHEART! <3

*sigh* I love it! My first all pink cover <3. I actually designed the illustrated covers for WALLFLOWER, BOOKWORM, and SWEETHEART, and although I may be one of 10 people who get them lol, I truly cannot wait to add this beauty to my shelves!

I had so much fun writing Scarlett & Sam’s story! Their chemistry is off the charts, and there are so many hilarious and heartfelt moments! I’ll talk more about it soon, but…there’s a list of “firsts”, fake dating, kissing lessons, character cameos from other books, and tons of heart sparkles!

Oh, I hope you’ll love it!

SWEETHEART is coming on April 25, 2024!!!

I hope you’re doing well, reading amazing books, and having an awesome April so far!

Happy reading,

Cookie O’Gorman

P.S. Here is one last pic with the ebook & paperback bc I’m in love with them! And again, only 4 more days until SWEETHEART! <3

The Total Knockout Release Day!

It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here!!!

Happy Release Day to The Total Knockout!

Maisie & Dex. Dex & Maisie. Team Daisie is here, and I’m so excited! <3

I can’t believe their story is actually out in the wild. I love them so much. Dex’s sarcasm, his cockiness, his strength and vulnerabilities, the loyalty he has for his family (had so much fun writing the O’Brien family scenes!) and the people he loves. Maisie’s fierceness, her sass, her tough exterior and soft heart, the loyalty she has for her sister (sidenote: I love Lola!) and the people she loves. They’re both scarred, imperfect, and wonderful. I loved writing their story and watching them fall in love so naturally, so deeply.

I truly hope this story brings so much love and laughter.

I love Dex & Maisie, and I hope readers will too.  The Total Knockout is an enemies-to-lovers, opposites attract romance with a scarred hero & heroine, flirty banter, tons of swoon, LOL-moments, and O’Brien goodness! 😀  ***It is also a new adult sports romance intended for readers 18+.***

Sidenote: This book is sweet & spicy. Some might call it low to mild heat level–but I think it’s just the right amount of spice! And swoon. And true love. And oh, I just hope you’ll give it a chance.

This is book 4 in the Southern U O’Brien Brothers series!

There are now 4 (standalone) O’Brien Brothers books!

Hip, hip, hooray!!!

One more time: Happy Release Day to The Total Knockout!!!

I hope you’ll check it out (and that you fall in love with Team Daisie <3)!

Hope you are well!

Happy reading,

Cookie O’Gorman

BOOKWORM Cover Reveal!

It’s time for the cover reveal of BOOKWORM!!!

Yay, yay, yayyy!

I realize it’s been a minute since I posted; but I’m so excited about this book, so in love with these characters, and I can’t wait to share this with you!

So, without further ado…

…here is the cover…

…for my upcoming YA romance…

BOOKWORM! <3

Isn’t it gorgeous?!?

*sigh* I love it. I love Charlotte & Bo. I love the way they’re looking at each other, so very in character lol, and all those books! <3 I so hope you love it too! BOOKWORM is a YA romance with grumpy/sunshine vibes, library kisses, tons of swoon, LOL moments, and heart!

We also have a release date, hooray! BOOKWORM is coming on April 20, 2023!!!

That’s so soon, you guys! I’m all nerves and excitement because I can’t wait to share their story with you–but also, I so hope you’ll love it!

If you’d like to read the summary and add BOOKWORM on Goodreads, here is the link! 😀

Again, I had such a wonderful time writing Lottie & Bo’s story. There are several character crossovers from my other books (which I had so much fun writing), and this story is one that I truly love <3. I’ll be posting more later. I can’t believe this is my first post of 2023–but I’m actually kind of thrilled that it’s about BOOKWORM! <333

Hope you’re doing well and having a wonderful week!

Happy reading,

The Sweetest Game Release Day!

Ahhh, I can’t believe it’s finally here!!!

Happy Release Day to The Sweetest Game!

This book, you guys! Oh, I love it so much! June & Baylor’s story is one that I hope touches readers’ hearts. The swoon factor is at like 1000 lol–but seriously, Baylor is just…wonderful. Some of the things he does and thinks are just so romantic. June is my girl (well, she’s Baylor’s, but she’s mine too :)). I love her. I love how she’s so herself, how she knows what (and who) she wants, how she pines and loves Baylor, her best friend’s brother. And I love how Baylor loves her back–even though she’s supposed to be off limits. <3

I’m probably not doing this right. As I write this, I’m going on very little sleep ha. But I love this book!

I love June & Baylor, and oh, I hope readers will too.  The Sweetest Game is a friends-to-lovers fake romance with plenty of pining, swoon, LOL-moments, and O’Brien goodness! 😀  ***It is also a new adult sports romance intended for readers 18+.***

My debut novel was about a fake relationship between best friends. I feel like this is my return to friends-to-lovers, and I so loved writing it along with the fake romance aspect.

Sidenote: This book is sweet & spicy. I think it’s a little steamier than my other books; some might call it low to mild heat level–but I think it’s just the right amount of spice! And swoon. And true love. And oh, I just hope you’ll give it a chance.

This is book 3 in the Southern U O’Brien Brothers series!

I have 3 books (standalones) all in a series!

Yay, yay, yay!!!

One more time: Happy Release Day to The Sweetest Game!!!

I hope you’ll check it out (and that you fall in love with June & Baylor’s story <3)!

Hope you are well!

Happy reading,

Cookie O’Gorman

The Sweetest Game cover reveal!

Today is the day!!!

The cover reveal for the third book in the Southern U O’Brien Brothers series is here! And it is such a stunner!

Thank you so much to my wonderful cover designer, Stephanie Mooney! You did an amazing/beautiful/incredible job!

I can’t even. I love it so much.

Without further ado…

…here is the cover…

…(which, did I mention I love? :))…

…for my new book..

The Sweetest Game <3.

*swoons*

Gorgeous, right?!? *___*

This cover makes my eyes smile every time. I’ve wanted to write June & Baylor’s story ever since I had the idea for the O’Brien Brothers years ago. June is so in love with Bay. She has been for years, and the way she pines for him, her best friend’s brother, just pulls at my heartstrings (and I hope it pulls at yours too <3). And I am so in love with Baylor. He’s cocky yet lovable, beautiful yet flawed, determined to deny his feelings for June and yet…unable to deny his heart. I love her; I love him; I love them together. And I hope, hope, hope readers will love their story.

On that note…we have a release date!

The Sweetest Game will release on September 8, 2022!!!

Woohoo! Book baby #12, you guys!

If you’d like to read the summary, you can find it here. ***This is not a young adult book. It is a new adult sports romance set in college and intended for readers 18+.***

Once more with feeling: Happy Cover Reveal Day to The Sweetest Game!

If you’re a fan of friends-to-lovers, fake romance, tons of pining, flirty banter, falling for your best friend’s brother, soulmates, true love, swoon and spice, I hope you’ll check it out!

Happy reading,

Cookie O’Gorman

FAUXMANCE Release Day!

It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here!!!

Happy FAUXMANCE Release Day!

Ahhh, I can’t believe it’s here! Book baby #10 is out in the wild! Oh, I’m so excited and feeling all the feels! Magnolia & Hayden’s story is one I love so much! It’s my first story with an elevator scene (loved writing that part <3). I hope readers laugh, sigh, and swoon. I hope people will give this little YA romance a chance and that they fall in love with Hayden *sigh*. I hope they love Maggie, too–and Izzy, Constance, Maggie’s mom and sister, the guys in Hayden’s band, the bridesmaids.

Like I said, my feelings are all over the place lol. When I first started this journey, I never thought I’d be able to write 10 books. I’m so slow; self-doubt tries to stop me every. single. time. There are so many reasons why this shouldn’t have been possible. But I’m so glad I got to #10 (even if one of those is a novella ha!) because if I hadn’t I’d never have written this book.

And Magnolia & Hayden’s story is in my heart.

I hope FAUXMANCE will make its way into readers’ hearts as well.

If you love YA romance, fake relationships, opposites attract, hopeless romantics who love weddings, cynical musicians who love their grandmother, elevators, weddings, and laugh-out-loud moments, I hope you’ll check it out!

Again: FAUXMANCE is available now!

Good luck, little book! May the Force be with you, may the odds be ever in your favor, and may you bring light and love to anyone who reads your pages!

Happy reading,

Cookie O’Gorman

Without further ado…

Ahhh, I just can’t!

The almost kiss, the swoony position, the gorgeous colors, the jacket, *sigh*. It all just reminds me how much I love this book! Magnolia & Hayden truly make my heart so glad! I hope they’ll do the same for you! <3

FAUXMANCE will release on April 28, 2022!!!

That’s less than a month away! So excited (and nervous lol)! I hope you’ll check it out, and I hope you’re doing well my wonderful readers!

Most of all I hope it reminds people to love themselves and to be kind and that happily-ever-after comes in all shapes and sizes! <3

WALLFLOWER Audiobook Release Day!

It’s here, you guys!!!

Viola & Dare’s story is now available in audiobook! Woohoo!!!

Ah, they used the original cover (created by Stephanie Mooney), and I’m so glad because I love it! The narrator, Stephanie Einstein, captured Viola’s voice right from the beginning <3. The sample I heard was so wonderful! Can’t wait to listen to the rest!!!

Also thought the 2 Stephanie’s must be a good sign lol!

So, so excited! This is my first audiobook in a while, and I love this story so much!

Truly.

In addition to the ebook and paperback, I hope this new format will help more readers find Viola & Dare! Eep! This book is so dear to me. And it’s out there, you guys!

That’s an awesome feeling.

In other news, this coming month is going to be busy. I organize a charity event in September that is for a very important cause, and I’m praying and doing all I can to make sure it goes well. Please cross your fingers for me, you guys. I’m also writing a book for Entangled that needs to be turned in by Oct. 1st. My WIP will be taking a lot of my energy/focus. I love it, but honestly, I’ve been having trouble writing since July. Several reasons for this *sigh*. I also have a dance teaching opportunity coming up, which I’m very excited about. And then there’s the co-authored project I’m working on.

More on all that later.

Today is a good day because my book baby is out there in audio, available to listen & swoon over!

Happy Release Day to the WALLFLOWER audiobook!!!

If you listen, I hope you love it! Hope you’re well and that you have a wonderful week!

Happy reading,
