💍 Celebrating 10 Years of the Billionaire Marriage Brokers Series!

Ten years ago, I sat down to write a story that started with a contract and ended with a kiss.

I was completely taken with the idea of a romance born from forced proximity—the kind where two people have to navigate the closeness of marriage before love even gets a chance to bloom. It felt bold, heartfelt, and a little mischievous… and from that spark, the Billionaire Marriage Brokers series was born.

Since then, eight couples have said “I do” through the pages—five unforgettable brides and three grooms who never saw love coming. Along the way, a spinoff bloomed with the Dating Mr. Baseball series (because who doesn’t want to fall for a swoony Redrocks player after reading The Athletic Groom?).

To celebrate this milestone, the entire series has been given a fresh new look—with gorgeous new covers that reflect the heart, humor, and hope inside.

But I didn’t stop there.

I went back to where it all began and gave the first book a full rewrite. We’re talking extended scenes, deeper emotional layers, and a brand-new B-plot that brings fresh depth and dimension to the story. If you’ve read it before, this is your chance to experience it again for the first time. And if you’re brand new to the BMB world—welcome. This is the perfect place to start.

This series has grown with me. Ten years later, I still believe in unexpected matches, quiet moments that mean everything, and the kind of romance that doesn’t need fireworks to feel explosive.

And while the Billionaire Marriage Brokers are still hard at work behind the scenes, I’ve got a brand-new frontier ahead. My newest venture—Gritstone Ranch—delivers authentic cowboy romance straight from a cowgirl’s heart. It’s real, rugged, and deeply emotional.

Thank you for being part of this love story. Whether you’ve read one book or all of them, your support means the world. Here’s to ten more years of matchmaking magic.

With all my heart,
💗 Lucy

Binge-Readers Know the Secret to Self-Care

You know that feeling when you get so caught up in a book that the rest of the world fades away?
When nothing matters except the characters you’re falling in love with, the journeys you’re taking, and the happy sigh that comes with a perfect ending?

That’s not something you need to explain to someone who knows the benefits of binge reading.
And around here, we celebrate the benefits a good binge read can do for your soul!

Binge-reading is the ultimate self-care.
It’s how you refill your heart, recharge your dreams, and remember the things that truly matter: courage, hope, faith, and love.

Bingeing Is Renewal

Life pulls at you in a thousand directions. Responsibilities stack up. Worries crowd the edges of your mind.
But when you dive deep into a good story, something amazing happens: you breathe differently. You believe differently.

Binge-reading isn’t about escaping your life—it’s about renewing your spirit so you can live it more fully.
Every story you devour strengthens the parts of you that hope, dream, love, and endure.

Books Heal Broken Hearts

Maybe you pick up a book because you need a good laugh.
Maybe it’s because you need a little courage to face something hard.
Or maybe it’s because your heart recognizes the universal truth that stories offer:

No heart stays broken forever. No dream stays lost. And love—always—finds a way.

Books don’t just entertain us.
They whisper, “You’re not alone. Keep going.

Black Ops Tag: Mission: Harvest Ranch Wedding

I have to admit, this was a passion project. Yes, it falls within my regular genre of romance. BUT, it’s a total ROMCOM in all the best ways!

Imagine this:

Five military police continue a game of tag–only it has a Black Ops twist. Once a year they try to take one another out (i.e. land you flat on your back) in whatever way possible. Sneak attacks are encouraged!

Now imagine that one of the friends is getting married–and he’s it! The four groomsmen are out to get him and he has to hide it from his bride because:

  1. She’s running for office and her image is at stake
  2. She’s asked you to suspend the game
  3. You’re the idiot who was dumb enough to make these guys your groomsmen

Will these two make it to the church or will they be waylaid for the sake of the game?

You’ll have to read the book to find out. BUT don’t worry, I’m not leaving you in total suspense. 🙂

There’s a short story — one that shows how the bride and groom fell in love, FAST. It’s a total love-at-first kidnapping story that you’re sure to swoon over.

Excerpt:

“Name?” she prompted as nicely as she could.

“I’m not sure I want to tell you.”

She scowled. “Why not?”

“You attacked me with a tire iron.” He threw the words out like knives.

Indignation fired inside. Obviously, she felt bad about it, or she wouldn’t be driving him to get help. “I wouldn’t have done that if you weren’t breaking into my barn. What would you do if you were in my situation?”

He lowered his arm and studied in her what little light there was on First Street. He sighed. “I’d probably want to hit them with a tire iron.”

She felt oddly validated. And then the shame of her actions flooded her. “I’m so sorry. Please believe that I don’t usually go around hitting people.”

“I know.” He shifted carefully.

She eyed him warily. Exactly how long had he been watching her? Was he some stalker who’d picked up her picture on social media? Or had her ex sent him to find out if she had money? If so, the joke was on him. “How?”

“Because you were always a sweet kid.”

Her eyebrows pulled together.

He chuckled. “You don’t remember me—do you?”

“Should I?”

“I’d like to think I left an impression.” He had a smidgen of satisfaction and a smudge of overconfidence that was adorably handsome. If this wasn’t the strangest thing that had ever happened to her, she might think he was cute. He turned his head to the side, offering his profile. “Look close.”

She did her best to scrutinize him in the Christmas lights that brushed through the windows. “Sorry. I got nothing.”

He sighed. “Forest Nicholas.”

She slammed on the brakes, throwing them both forward.

His good arm reached out to stop him from flying into the dashboard. “What the peanut butter fudge?!” he snapped.

“Forest Nicholas?” she asked in disbelief. At the very name, she was taken back to her elementary school years where the little boy with cornflower-blue eyes painted her hair brown in art class and left a melted candy bar that looked like poo in her desk. “Forest Nicholas,” she repeated.

A Romance to Fall For

Zoey Carroll trusts her intuition and it pays off. Hunter Westbrook works it out on paper and it works out in life. Opposites may attract, but a lasting love needs more than an explosive first kiss. USA Today bestselling author Lucy McConnell and Ellie Thornton explore the relationship between personal nature and love in this sweet fall romance full of small town charm, falling leaves, warm cider and the Harvest Ranch Family.

You can pick up your copy–today!
