As we're approaching the end of the Brewer Family Series (😭), I keep seeing one question on repeat: What about Bianca? Isn't she getting a book? Why isn't she getting a book?!

No. She won't have a book in the Brewer Family Series.

Why?

Because she already has one in the Carmichael Family Series! 🎉

Yes, that's right. If you haven't read that series, one of those swoony Carmichael boys captured Bianca's heart a long time ago. 😜

Her book is titled FLAME, and it's actually the last book in that series. But, no worries—you don't have to read the whole series to enjoy FLAME. (I wrote it that way on purpose!) Also, you'll get a little more backstory about what all went down with Reid Brewer and why he went to prison! 😮

Gosh, I love that series, too.

My heart pulls in my chest in a different way when I think of those rowdy Carmichael boys. Why? Because it hits a little too close to home.

If any books I've ever penned are based on my life, it's the Carmichaels. 💗

Shenanigans? ✔️

Group family chat that gets sideways? ✔️

Competitions (constantly)? ✔️

Chickens? ✔️

The mother wanting all of her kids to live on her street? ✔️✔️✔️

Read this series for Bianca and start with FLAME. Or, dive in with book one, FLIRT. You won't be sorry.

🧡 Sneak Peek: The Situation

Are you ready for the very first sneak peek of THE SITUATION?

(Note: This isn't fully edited and is subject to change.)

​

“This is the moment where I say something clever that makes you laugh,” he says, his gaze dancing with amusement. “But I have completely lost my train of thought.”

“Really? Why?”

“Because I expected to sit next to someone much older and much less attractive than you.”

“Oh, okay,” I say, my cheeks growing warm. “That was smooth.”

“I’m glad I haven’t lost my touch.” He lets his smile linger for a long moment, and its heat curls through my veins. “I’m Tate.”

And I’m screwed—and not in the way I’d like to be right now.

“I’m Kelly,” I say, uninterested in giving this twenty-something hottie my real name—just in case. “Kelly Kapowski.”

“Kelly Kapowski, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

​

​Have you preordered THE SITUATION? It will be live on May 23rd.

​

Here's a fun little tease of what you might find in Tate's book. 😏

What do you see that captures your interest?

🧡 Locke life lately

From top & clockwise:

I found this pretty platter at Marshalls. Blue is usually not my jam, and I don't love birds. But there's something about this on my counter that just feels like spring!

We got trackers for the puppies—and they work! I highly recommend Tractive. The trackers themselves are pretty darn cheap. You do have to get a plan for the service. But the price was definitely worth the peace of mind.

This pillow cracked me up. It's total Carmichael vibes, is it not? (If you've read the books, you get it. Ha!) I snapped this pic and sent it to my sons. Let's see if I get it for Mother's Day.

My fave section. I love the lighting department!

Freeze dried Skittles are our favorites right now. Mr. Locke has banned them from the house because it's so hard not to eat the whole bag! (Just between us, I still buy them.)
