*Original Covers*
Kick Start
“The thing is… I’ll be fine if friendship is what’s best for us.”
“What if you could be better than fine, Kick?”
After my world imploded eight years ago, I fought my way out of the darkness—opened a popular coffeehouse, raised three amazing kids, fixed my health. But, the pains of the past still haunt me.
Then Professor Thomas Harrison walks into my café. He’s six feet of hotness and all kinds of chiseled grumpiness in a suit. When my business is vandalized, Thomas sticks around to give a statement and makes sure I’m safe. He floors me by asking real questions about my life and health, attributing it to his genetic research. Except no one does this. Ever.
Despite our scorching chemistry, I keep him at arm’s length. Thomas makes it clear he’s devoted to his work and something else. Something huge that he’s hiding. Between his mysterious calls and running off at a moment’s notice, it’s clear he has zero time for “extracurricular activities” too.
But also I have secrets and like that he’s not aware of the old me. I only know that when Thomas is around my world makes sense again. He might be the key to helping me start over, but first I have to confront my past.
Kick Start is book one in a slow burn, seasoned, steamy Romantic Suspense trilogy with all the feels. The story ends with a Happy For Now with an overarching plotline.

“The thing is… I’ll be fine if friendship is what’s best for us.”
“And what if you could be better than fine, Kick?”
It would be amazing. But I was afraid to hope.
— Kick Start
Kick Back
“I need extraordinary, and I won’t settle.”
I feel like a new woman. An open book. It’s more than the encouraging test results, proving my body is on the mend. This sensation lives in every cell, every emotion, every new wish. My late husband is peacefully laid to rest in my heart, and I’m moving forward.
Thomas and I agree to take things slow despite my heart’s veto of the decree. It wants—no demands—more magical nights with my new delicious younger man. Except we both have responsibilities competing for our attention and interrupting our alone time.
Then there’s the harassment of my coffeehouse and my family. After a festive night out nearly turns tragic, Thomas’s care and vow of protection keep me from falling backward.
I never dared to dream of a second chance at love, though it looks like one found me. Still, his stubborn refusal to open up challenges the limits of my swoony affections. Thomas better come clean soon because I’m close to figuring out his big secret, anyway.

Kick Home
“No one’s ever chosen me.”
Kick McKenna. The vivacious woman who gave my dead heart a new life. Who discovered my deepest secret and stayed. Who’s forging a new beginning with me.
Our love intensified in a short time, but we both know forever isn’t guaranteed. After promising each other one day at a time, even this commitment is a gift I never would’ve asked for. And the nights? Kick is everything I crave. I’ll move any obstacle in her way. Be her white knight.
But decades ago, I pledged myself to the mysterious Felidae Society. It’s a vow I still hold sacred, one I hope doesn’t conflict with this promise to Kick. Fortunately, she turns out to be the lynchpin of my research that I desperately need.
As Kick’s empty nest days draw near, a vision of a future with her takes shape. I want more than a for-now commitment. I want it all. She’s my home.
Yet I’m not the only one to break their vows to my found family. This new betrayal could mean war, but no matter what, I will protect my lady.

Kick approached and placed her hand over my heart. “Remember our promises to each other at the oak tree?”
“No.” Of course I did, but this was different. My promises to keep Kick and her family safe came first.
“Yes, you do.” She went up on her tiptoes and kissed the underside of my jaw. It was this weird yet cute thing she did. Probably had to do with the way my jaw flexed when I stressed out. Like most things Kick did, I liked it. It settled me.
—Kick Home
Love You Better
Cyndi Sendaydiego and Blake Brady take their second chance at a happily ever after.
Blake Brady is gruff and irresistibly chiseled, with a just-right amount of salt in his hair to make me swoon. He’s a talented restaurateur and devoted dad to his daughter. In other words, he’s the only man who has ever tempted my confirmed bachelorette status.
Then I find out Blake’s business is in crisis, thanks to the embezzling accountant I recommended when I walked away from him three years ago. He says my skills with numbers make me the only person he trusts to turn his restaurant around. Heaven help me, because I can’t say no to his gorgeous, weary eyes.
His brooding might as well be a form or foreplay, but it’s the man behind the hard shell who draws me in again. When Blake proposes a no-strings-attached office fling, I’m hooked. It’s only a bit of fun. No one’s talking about the L-word. Except when he finally breaks through my defenses, it becomes impossible to keep Blake and his precious girl at arm’s length.

Flower Cover Paperback
Jones has written a captivating story that I can completely relate to and wrap myself in. This story made me want to crawl into this world to feel accepted and seen… Also to eat the delicious food that was created at The Garage!!! The story and the plot though… Thoroughly delectable in and of itself. This narrative was so heartfelt, poignant, and inspiring that I found myself moved to tears as if by my body’s own choice without any thought whatsoever contained within my brain. The way Jones has written this compelling and complex story fully captivated me and made me feel more at ease with some of my own changes. Words are hard… And I find it extremely difficult to fully express what reading this book has done to me. Thank you, Kallyn Jones, for sharing your talents and words of love and wisdom with me… With the world! I will forever be a fan and will be reading every single book you have published . Thank you for making me, and those like me, a place to feel accepted! I have become a bumbling idiot, so I’ll leave you with these final words… Go read this book! Just read it and you’ll understand why I have become a raving fan!
