Next of Kin is a great fit for readers who enjoy found-family, forced proximity, and a grumpy-but-secretly-a-sweetheart-hero

Hello readers!
I am SO excited to be featuring the author of one of my most recommended reads of 2023 today!!! I read Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young late in 2023 and immediately recognized it as something special that the world needed to know about ~ so I proceeded to make sure the world DID know about it, by recommending it far and wide. Immediately after reading that one, I searched for anything else by Hannah and came across her Christmas novella Set the Record Straight, and I loved that one too! I then discovered that her novel Next of Kin, which was originally self-published, would be re-released by Dell on February 6th and knew I needed to read it on my Kindle right way so I could say I read it before it got even MORE popular than it already was! I read it and loved it, of course.
I have one more book by Bonam-Young to read, and I just discovered that Dell will also be re-releasing it in April ~ here’s to Next to You being one of my hotly anticipated April titles for all of my romance friends here! And Out on a Limb is being re-released as well in June!! I’m ALL ABOUT this trend of publishers picking up self-published books and putting their publicity and printing engines behind them. And Dell might as well just get ready to publish anything Hannah writes, because I’ll be snapping it up and singing its praises no questions asked ~ I want more!
I hope you enjoy meeting Hannah ~ let’s jump right in!
