You start reading and suddenly find yourself in a cozy little small-town library where my upcoming Bookish Billionaires of Maple Valley series (written as Mia Sands with fellow romcom author, Danika Bloom) are set.
“Oooh, a library. No complaints from me,” you say.
“Who would ever complain about being at the library?” I ask as I get up from behind the librarian’s desk. I’m in a comfy pair of sweats and a t-shirt with the slogan ‘I Like Big Books and I Cannot Lie’. “Actually, don’t answer that. I’m a librarian by day, and I’ve seen my fair share of non-readers get dragged into the building by the readers in their lives.”
“So have I!” A woman you hadn’t noticed before steps out from among the shelves. She looks like your stereotypical librarian. Pencil skirt. Cardigan. Hair up in a bun. She smiles. “But whenever I find a non-reader the perfect book, they turn into a reader!”
“I love when that happens.” I grin.
“Me too,” you say.
“That’s Jane, by the way,” I say, introducing the librarian. “She’s the main character in Shelve that Billionaire. She works here. For now…”
Jane frowns. “What do you mean ‘for now’?”
“Never mind. Forget I said anything,” I quickly turn to you. “Here, check out these books.”
I shove two paperbacks at you.
“Mia, what do you mean ‘for now’?” Jane demands.
“Nothing,” I tell her, then turn to you. “Read the blurbs. They’ll tell you everything you need to know about the books. Bye Jane!”
I rush you toward the door.
“Wait,” you shout after me, “I wanted to…”
“Next time!” I shout and everything around you starts to fade.
You find yourself back in front of your screen. “Well, that was…” You’re at a loss for words and I don’t blame you.
Luckily, I’ve left the blurbs for you to read… and you somehow know you’ll hear back from me again on June 3rd, the official launch date of Shelve that Billionaire.
Shelve that Billionaire by Mia Sands & Danika Bloom
He created the robot that stole her job... can she stop him from stealing her heart?
I've finally got my life on track, working at a cute little, small-town library in Maple Valley. I even put a down payment on a house, and then promptly got fired. Why, you ask? Because the new hire doesn't need breaks and will work for free. How can I compete with that?
Smexy tech billionaire Bryan Brooks is the person to blame, and he doesn't want my dream job for himself—that I might understand. No, he built a shelving robot named after my favorite poet and donated it to the library so that it can replace me.
I hate how good he looks in his viral posts and the fact that he has time to talk about my favorite books but can't be bothered to find a shirt.
I'll never forgive him. Not even when he shows me his personal library, complete with floor-to- ceiling books and a rolling ladder. And definitely not when he kisses me while whispering delicious literary quotes that set every inch of me on fire. How can I ever get over the fact that he destroyed my life

Check Out that Billionaire by Mia Sands & Danika Bloom
He's been her ride or die since first grade… will her growing crush crash their good thing?
The one constant in my life has been my best guy friend, Cam. He's trustworthy, sweet, and his no-occasion, literary gifts blow every romance hero's grand gesture out of the water.
Still, he's my best friend. And while he'd make the most swoon-worthy love interest for another girl, I don't see him that way. Until he shows up at my library book club meeting and reads the role of the hero in the best book series of all time.
When we reenact my favorite scene, all the book club ladies think I fainted since my mail-order corset was one-size-too-small. The truth is, when Cam touched my arm, my heart stopped.
And when I discover he has a spicy romance novel by my all-time favorite author hidden next to his bed? Now I can't look at Cam without imagining him as the hero of my own love story. I crave to role-play just one steamy scene with him, but how can I justify indulging when it could ruin this almost perfect thing we have?
