Release Date: November 14, 2023


BLURB
NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series surrounding five best friends who co-own a tattoo studio.

Emerson
It’s not like I planned to fall for my older brother’s best friend.

It just happened. With a perfect body covered in tattoos, and a dirty mouth, Roman is the kind of guy women notice—and believe me, I noticed. Even when I tried not to.

When he finally gives in to temptation, there’s no going back. At least for me. Too bad Roman doesn’t see it that way.

He thinks he needs to protect me and my relationship with my brother, but I don't need him to fight my battles. I just need him.

Roman
My name whispered from Emerson’s perfect pink lips is all it takes for me to betray my best friend.

Before that night, I kept the green-eyed beauty at arm’s length. Watched her from afar and told myself that the chemistry between us was one-sided.

I pretended that I didn’t want her more than my next breath. Which is what’s on the line if her brother ever finds out we’ve been sneaking around behind his back.

But I can’t stay away. Especially after knowing what it’s like to have her and lose her.

Now, I’m given a second chance, and I have every intention of making her mine—consequences be damned.

The Ocean Series Release Blitz +Giveaway


The Ocean Series
Author: A.R. Hadley
Genre: Literary Fiction/Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 11, 2023

WHERE THE OCEAN MEETS THE SKY
A woman grieving the loss of a loved one. A man carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Does one fateful summer really have the power to change everything?

Rising photographer Annie Baxter is ready for a fresh start when she makes her way from New York to the sparkly sands of South Beach. A recent college graduate, she has no plans other than to distract herself with sun and surf, pictures and friends.

Then a man named Cal Prescott steps in front of her lens...

When he first spots Annie on the stairs of his best friends’ home, he’s enamored.

It doesn’t matter if they only have the summer. Or if twenty years separate them. They soon find that nothing — not temporary circumstances, panic attacks, or an age gap ­— can keep them from starting what their hearts desire.

Follow Annie and Cal on a journey of love, loss, and what it means to give up defining themselves.

Author Note: Previously published in 2018 as The South Beach Connection Trilogy: Landslide, Wanderlust, and ContinuumWhere the Ocean Meets the Sky combines those three books into one, as the author originally intended. Although heavily edited, combined, and relaunched since their initial release, the overall story remains. Literary fiction meets contemporary romance — a love made in the stars. A connection not to be forgotten.

200,000-words — over 800 pages. Part of the two-book series: The Ocean Series. Either book may be read first. The reader must choose. This is the main title. Contains graphic content that may trigger some readers.

THE OCEAN IN HIS VEINS

He’s a surfer. A loner. A man on a quest to rid himself of pesky feelings.

After his grandfather passes away, Cal Prescott begins to see life differently.

Money wants his attention, women beckon, and the pursuit of success becomes a cycle he can’t seem to break.

Follow Cal from age sixteen to forty-five, from 1985 to 2014, from the tangerine fields of Ojai to the neon streets of Miami Beach — from being ready to take on the world to hitting the bottom of the sea.

Cal spends half his life waiting for the perfect wave to break over the horizon, looking for comfort, searching for peace — and he’ll chase every last drop of water ... until he finds release.

Author Note: Part of the two-book series: The Ocean Series. The Ocean in His Veins may be read as a companion to the main title Where the Ocean Meets the Sky or as a standalone. Please be advised that reading this story first may change the way Cal is initially perceived in the latter book. This can be good or bad, depending on the reader.

Literary fiction, not romance. The characters and their intense and realistic actions drive the plot. 76,000-words. The Ocean in His Veins details Cal’s life from age sixteen to forty-five. The story ends the night he meets Annie in 2014. Contains graphic content that may trigger some readers.

AUTHOR BIO
A.R. Hadley writes imperfectly perfect sentences by the light of her iPhone.

She loves the ocean.
Chocolate.
Her children.
And Cary Grant.

She annoys those darling little children by quoting lines from Back to the Future, but despite her knowledge of eighties and nineties pop culture, she was actually meant to live alongside the Lost Generation after the Great War and write a mediocre novel while drinking absinthe with Hemingway. Instead, find her sipping unsweet tea near a beautiful garden as she weaves fictional tales of love and connection amid reality.

She’s given up on men. He has no time for love. When a Halloween party turns into a night of outrageous costumes and police chases, can they score a forever goal?

Drew Foster is trapped in a one-man operation. Focused on building his small IT consulting business, the workaholic thirty-one-year-old has no time for close relationships except with his sister and widowed mom. But at a Halloween bash hosted by his brother-in-law’s hockey teammate, he hits it off with an unknown woman in an outrageous mascot costume.

Katie Denning is done with men. Burned by past boyfriends using her to get close to the professional sports team, the loyal dog-lover leaves the party with a guy dressed as a giant banana slug… only to be pursued by police. And after a night of adventure and fun with the cute guy running from the cops, she plucks up the courage to ask him on a date.

Though their romantic rendezvous is cut short by her Chow-mix attacking him, a determined Drew asks for a second chance. A cautiously optimistic Katie begins falling hard, but she fears Drew’s work demands could result in her facing another painful rejection.

Are they about to get stuck on the sidelines before they can score a forever goal?

EXCERPT
The entire scene was hilarity on steroids. “Hmm, interesting offer, but let’s put a pin in it for now, shall we?” She tapped her forefinger against her chin. “I’d like to know a little bit more about the banana slug I’m contemplating taking on as my prison break buddy.”
“Good call. My parents always warned my sister not to trust just any old banana slug.”
A laugh rolled from deep in her belly, and the fact that he had caused it shot warm tingles through his bloodstream.
He chuckled. “Tell you what. Hit me with twenty questions—no holds barred—so you can get to know me better.”
“All right. Cats or dogs?”
“Definitely dogs.”
“Vanilla or cookies and cream?”
“Mint chocolate chip.”
“Thinking outside the box. I like that, Sammy. Beach or mountains?”
“Mountains. That’s why I live here.”
She paused a beat. “Women, men, both, or none of the above?”
He didn’t hesitate. “Women. Always.”
“Hockey or baseball?”
“No contest. Hockey.”
“Favorite season?”
“Fall.”
“Missionary or reverse cowgirl?” Her voice was suddenly breathy, sultry, and it made his dick go from semi to full mast in a nanosecond.
“You just got more interesting.”
“Clever, but that doesn’t answer my question,” she said in a school teacher voice. “Your go-to position?”
“All of the above. In all variations. I’m flexible that way.”
“Phew! It’s getting hot out here.”
The snowflakes were turning to virtual bursts of steam as they hit the atmosphere sizzling between them. “Keep going. You have eleven more questions by my count.” And he couldn’t wait to hear every single one.

Ryder Goode has been my celebrity crush since he signed on with the Charleston Coyotes. Watching him race around the ice has become a favorite pastime of mine.

Despite him being one of my brother’s teammates, we’ve never met. At least not until he cashes in on the prize he won in a charity auction—one weekend with me as his personal chef.

During those two days, every preconceived notion I have about him gets annihilated, leaving me wanting to learn more about the kind and generous man.

So when he asks me to stay on as his full-time chef, I accept. And when the two of us can’t keep our hands off each other, I warn him I’ll never fall for him.

Even though it’s too late—I already have.

Although I might be trying to fool the forward, it turns out, I’m only fooling myself.
