Last day! Shop the whole collection at mnbennet.com/pride-promo . I'd super love to reach my preorder goal for Endless Depths, my MM contemporary romance about commercial fishermen, and 99c is a great deal... (sorry to be spammy but this is me rattling the tin can & jumping back into my manuscript)

-------
Commercial fishermen Cole and Morgan have been married for ten years, and they’ve fished the cold waters of Alaska for even longer. But man is no match for the Bering Sea. When tragedy strikes, the consequences to their marriage prove catastrophic. Full blurb to come.

While a few of these tropes are Thea classics, it’s been really fun to explore some new tropes and dynamics with Cole and Morgan!

Phew, that was a lot already this week! Reveals are done (for now 🤭)

What trope are you most excited for? 👀👀 Let me know in the comments! 👇🏼👇🏼

🦀Marriage in crisis
🦀Forced proximity
🦀Hurt x comfort
🦀Brother’s best friend
🦀Grumpy x sunshine
🦀Second chance
🦀Chronic pain
🦀Found family

What are you looking forward to in 2026?
I've got books and events planned and and a whole lot of rest and balance.

Next year will be so much better now that I have my health, and have made a lot of progress in therapy. Going to really focus on taking care of myself.

Wishing you the best 2026!

I'm low key shocked about how many words I wrote this year. When I tallied them all up I couldn't believe it. I was sick for most of this year and had major depression backslides, but I guess I did alright.

2025 was a ✨year✨. Wasn’t it?

But there’s still so much I’m proud of, and the future seems a little brighter for 2026, and I’m so very grateful to all of you.

Many thanks to @avaasbooks for creating the template I adjusted to suit my aesthetic.
