Happy New Year to you all! I'm not entirely sure where 2021 went, but I know a significant part of it was spent at my desk in lockdown, or by choice because I was writing all the words!
Hope you all stay safe and well, and that 2022 is an improvement on 2021 🙂
Hugs, RJ X

The Gardener & The Marine.

The Gardener and the Marine. I was really moved by this story.
This year I am looking forward to Rivals
The Boston Rebels books.
I can’t wait to read the next ones.
Earleen
I absolutely loved the Boston Rebels and Ellery Mountain series! 😊
It’s hard to choose what was my favourite. And I’m really looking forward to Single Dads and Railers 11.
Enjoyed Stronger Together. Looking forward to Royal Lines.
Happy New year. I loved Always.
Always, well all the single dad stories how can you pick between them. I’m looking forward to more from them.
If I pick one I’ll go Jared. The pocket money thing was just too cute. Though I’m looking forward to the single dad books, the secret high octane story may be most anticipated just because of curiosity.
I enjoyed reading the Wishing Tree. I’m looking forward to your many new releases in 2022. I am a avid reader and love happy ending stories.
Summer Drifter definitely my fave! Happy New Year!
The Wishing Tree

I’m intrigued by your ‘high octane’ project…
Stay safe!
Roz
Snowed…Christmas content book(s)…don’t want to be in snow nor cold, but appreciate s eyes set in such!
The Wishing Tree, and the “high octane story” has me intrigued!
Jared. But I love all your books😊
The Gardener and The Marine.
Happy New Year!
I enjoyed most “The Wishing Tree” and I am looking forward to the Christmas projects.
I am absolutely crazy about Christmas themed romances 🙂
Desert Dreams. This is so not the place one would expect these two to end up when looking from their agsty beginning, but oh so perfect for them.
The Gardener and the Marine was my 2021 favorite book. Such an emotional read. It made me cry and laugh. I look forward to the WIP Listen (Single Dads 5) and Pride (Single Dads 6).
You are a new author to me so sadly the only book of yours I have read so far is The Firefighter and The Cop, which I loved. All of your books for 2022 sound great so I can’t pick just one that I look forward to, happy New Year 🥳.
I loved all of the 2021 releases, but Jared comes out at the top of the list. Cant wait for all the new releases, will have to start rereading all the series in preparation for the new books.
Just found you as an author this year. Love the books. The hockey ones are my favorite reads.
Gardener and Marine 2021
Rivals 2022
I didn’t get them all read, but The Gardener and the Marine was so good
The Wishing Tree….since you are making me choose and All of them is not an option.
I am really looking forward to Listen.
I enjoyed reading The Gardener and the Marine. I am excited to read the next Single Dads book Listen.
I love your hockey books, so if I had to pick one it would be Top Shelf. I also have loved all the other books you released this year. I am almost through reading your entire back list, only a few more to read.
Jared and Felix
Well, I can’t pick just one, I enjoy all of your books, current and I know future too so not picking one, lol.
Desert Dreams was my favorite although I liked all of them.
Desert Dreams really got to me – can’t wait for Rivals to be released
ALWATS and I am looking forward to the Christmas compilTION
Top Shelf and a huge secret high octane story!!
The Wishing Tree was amazing.
I am looking forward for Felix!

The Wishing Tree, looking forward to Listen
Top Shelf and Rivals
I loved The Wishing Tree and look forward to anything you write.
My favorite for 2020 was Desert Dreams and I’m looking forward to the super secret high octane story!
Always – I love a single dad story
Oh geesh, a favorite?! Really?! Okay, well the Boston Rebels series is a favorite out of this year of releases. I mean hot guys loving each other and sports. But, I really enjoyed The Wishing Tree.
I so cannot wait for more of all the series because Single Dads, all the hockey series and of Montana and Wyoming. See, I can’t be trusted to pick a favorite.
Summer Drifter – I love a story about a man who finally finds home. And Quinn was a real favorite of mine.
Always was my favorite. I’m really looking forward to the Single Dads books slated for 2022
My favorite was the The Gardener and the Marine. I’m looking forward to the Single Dads novels as that’s one of my favorite series.
I liked so many of your new books, but the “The Gardener and the Marine” is my favorite, I guess. And as for your future books I’m equally curious for every one of them. Happy writing!
I literally have almost every one of your ebooks on my TBR…. or in my wishlist, IF I don’t own them already. Just finished reading the Christmas Throwaway (okay, not part of the competition, but come on, it was fantastic!). I have loved every one of your books I have read – so picking one is like asking a mother which of her five children is her favorite (with all five standing there). I will say Always and the Wishing Tree IF I have to pick. As for future releases, keep them coming, all of them, though if you see me begging for spare change or Amazon gift cards, it’s because I spent my last buck on your books!
My fave was The Gardener and the Marine. And I’m looki9ng forward to any Christmas ones you do. Love your Christmas books
Summer Drifter.
The gardener and the marine
I loved the Gardener and the Marine, but I think my favorite was Always and the ones I’m looking forward to are the next in the Single Dads books. Well, and the hockey books. And probably all the other ones, too, admittedly.
Not easy to choice just one favorite…but if I must, favorite 2021 release would be Desert Dreams and looking forward to Rivals. 😉
I loved any book with the Railers/Raptors
Looking forward to Rivals and both Single Dads installments
Happy New Year
I loved the Gardener and the Marine 💖
The Wishing Tree is my favorite, and I’m looking forward to Rivals!

This series has hit me in all the feels. I love all the men in this series.
I loved Jared, The Gardener & The Marine and Lost in Boston. I’m looking forward to the next Boyfriend for Hire book.
Desert Dreams and Rivals!
The Gardener and the Marine for 2021, and your current newsletter story for Ellery Mountain is the one I’m looking forward to completing. Anything with Ellery Mountain is great, it’s my favorite series.
Loved Summer Drifter looking forward to anything hockey. Love those books!
Loved the wishing tree and am looking forward to the single dads books
Jared by far was my top pick of 2021. I loved it.
I loved “Top Shelf”!! I’m looking forward to any Boston Rebels books 🙂
I love M/M stories and then to combine it with Hockey which is one of my favorite sport romances to read was a win/win for me! Loved Top Shelf! I can’t wait for Book 5 (Untitled). I will definitely be reading it in 2022!! Happy New Year!
I really enjoyed the Wishing Tree!
The Gardener and the Marine from 2021. I am anxiously awaiting the continuation of the weekly newsletter story, so that’s my pick for 2022. 💜
I really liked The Gardener and the Marine, but I also liked Always. (Always hard to weight one book against all the others…)
Aaaarrrgghh! Can’t choose just one – The Gardener & The Marine, Always and Jared, loved all of them. Can’t wait for 2022 – new Single Dads and Boyfriend for Hire 🙂
The Gardener and the Marine!!
I loved that book so much!
Looking forward to Single Dad book and actually any hockey story lol.

Along with many above, I thoroughly got into and loved The Gardener and the Marine.
For this year, I’m looking forward to your two Single Dads books.

The Wishing Tree. I always love a good Christmas story. For 2022 I am looking forward to the Single Dad’s series.
I like Single Dad series and the Railer series, so I can’t wait for the next books in both series.
Always and Listen
2021. The Wishing Tree
2022. Listen
It would have to be Ellery Mountain for both 2021 & 2022
All the hockey (which is funny, cause I’m a football fan through and through – all I know about hockey I learned from you and Vickie and Amy Aislin 🙂 So the Boston Rebels series has been great! Just finished Snowed and loved it. And I can’t wait for Rivals!!!!
Wishing Tree – beautiful story !! And Crooked Tree Ranch…..
The Gardiner and the Marine resonated with me like crazy!!!!
…..and of course, anything that comes from the genealogy of Harrisburg Railers makes me happy as freakin crazy!!!!
Thanks for being you my friend
XOXOX
I can’t pick one. my top three are: Snowed ,Desert Dreams, and The Gardener and the Marine. (Truthfully, they are the three I read this week. I find your most recent release is always my favorite.)
I loved The Wishing Tree! Thank you for all the great books you released in 2021! Here’s to 2022!!
Gardener and the Marine ❤️❤️ But honestly I just look forward to seeing what you write next. I love the newsletter serials.
I loved the Gardener and the Marine, and I’m looking forward to reading your Christmas projects.
Always was my favorite.
Always was my favorite.
I enjoyed The Wishing Tree and I am always looking forward to “Christmas projects”… I know, I know, we just got finished with Christmas, but I read the holiday books all year long, Sue me!! lol Have a Wonderful week!!
2021 – Valentine’s Hearts.
2022 – Rivals (since this is likely the only NHL Olympic ‘action’ available in 2022).
Single dads
I’m looking forward to Royal Lines the most.
The Gardner and the Marine
Jared
Top shelf was my favourite and I’m really waiting for Royal Lines and all the Boston rebels.
Alway-Single dads was my favourite
I gotta start the single dads series, so I’m waiting for Always (Single Dads 4) 🙂
Love all the hockey books ( go St Louis Blues) especially Ten & Jared. Stan is just too funny.
I loved the Single Dads and am looking forward to more of that series.
The gardener and marine!
The Wishing Tree
My favorite was Desert Dreams and I’m looking forward to Rivals.
My favorites were The Gardener & the Marine and Snowed and I’m really looking forward to more Single Dads!
Always
I enjoyed “The Gardener And The Marine”. I’m looking forward to “Felix (Boyfriend for Hire 5)” as fake relationships are one of my favorite tropes.
I really appreciate your writing, RJ. So, whatever freebies you share with us, I enjoy reading.
The Gardener and the Marine
Desert Dream and I am lookin forward to read the next Boston book.
Sorry RJ but I can’t pick a favorite as I love all of your books and I’m looking forward to anything that you write. 🥰.
AAAgh no don’t make me do it, It is just too hard. I had a real soft spot for Lost in Boston and also the Marine and the Gardener. Loved all the single Dad books so looking forward to more of that. Anything you write with Ms. Locey is a winner (also loved the Railers book and have all the Ryker and Jacob books see totally rubbish at this).
I have enjoyed all the books that I have had the chance to read so far, and am looking forward to catching up on the others.
Thank you so much for your books.
I loved the Boston Rebels series, especially ‘Poke Check’ – Stan’s version of English, at times, made me laugh out loud.
I am looking forward to reading the Boston Rebels Book 4 – ‘Royal Lines’. The thought of the clash of cultures between Marquis Miller and Prince Kaleb will be interesting……😀
If I have to choose a favorite, it’s still The Gardener and the Marine. But…I’m still partial to my hockey, so Snowed is a very close second, with the others piling up right behind. I can’t wait to see what 2022 brings. 🙂
Wow! I have enjoyed so many I can’t choose just one! I’m loving all of the hockey series, and on my through all of them for the second time! Looking forward to the new ones!
I loved so many of them, but I think Boyfriend for Hire Jared was my favorite.
Favorites: Boyfriend for Hire, Jared, Ellery Mountain & Single Dads… (Can’t just choose one.)
Looking forward to the new releases. Love all your books.
The Gardener & The Marine is tied with the Ryker/Jacob books I think.
Also loved the lastest Single Dad.
The Boston series . . . .
How can I pick just one????
I enjoyed Always and want more single dads and all the Christmas 🤗 I’m looking forward to Rivals
Stronger Together
Hi RJ,
I love The Single Dad’s stories, Owatonna Series and Boston Rebels series. I can’t wait to read more on those stories along worth the new Railer’s one coming this month!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Always. A first responder who suffers a career ending injury… and a single dad trying to find a safe haven to bring his son up in… Very heartwarming and touching. Loved it.
From this year’s ‘batch’, The Gardener and the Marine. For next year – I’m loving the weekly serial! Happy New Year!
For this year’s batch, it has to be The Gardener and the Marine. For next year, I’m enjoying a weekly serial, whatever it is! Happy New Year!
I loved the gardener and the marine but I’m looking forward to more single dad stories
I am so looking forward to the Single Dads!
Wishing you and yours a healthy, happy and prosperous new year.
The Gardner & the marine was my favorite. I stalked my email weekly then had to buy the book too. Lol. I’m looking forward to Rivals cause duh love Jared & Tennent so much
I loved them all, but Always and boyfriend for hire were my favorites. I’m really looking forward the the single dads books in 2022.
I loved Snowed and Top Shelf! I can’t wait to read more Boston Rebels!!
Snowed!
The Soldier and the Bodyguard has captivated my heart. I can’t wait to read the rest of their story.
Only discovered your books in 2021 & I read so many of them please don’t ask me to choose a favorite. Sorry I’m not a real hockey novel fan but your Crooked Tree Ranch, Ellery Mountain, (co-favorite) Sanctuary & of course (other co-favorite) Lancaster Falls are all books I loved. Must admit though I am checking my inbox every Monday for the current Ellery Mountain & loving JC & Adrian’s story – Adrian is well on the way to being a favorite hero.
The Wishing Tree
Love your hockey books
Loved them all…Guess Wishing Tree and looking forward to all in 2022 but especially Rivals…love the Raiders story track
I love all the Railers, Owatonna, and Boston Rebels books. I look forward to anything from those series.
I loved all the Boston Rebels books but possibly Snowed if I had to choose just 1 really looking forward to the next one!!!
The boston rebels books are my fav i will read them all bring them on thanks
Love your Ellery Mountain series. Amazing work
