ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 15, 2021

A single dad, a model, and a comedian walk into a bar… They’re all Owen Brodie.
It’s only funny if you aren’t the hilarious struggling comedian who has been hired to be his son’s nanny for the stand-up tour.

Dear Ms. Hogan,

I’m emailing to offer you the job as my son’s nanny because Sam had a temper tantrum when I told him I can’t hire you to come on my stand-up tour with us. “She heckled me at a club a few years ago,” I wanted to say. “She is the sassy little turd who trolls me on Twitter,” I could have told him. “She’s an even bigger pain in the butt when we’re face-to-face,” I thought to myself. What I would never tell him is—things could get complicated. For reasons.

Let me know if you want the job.

With great reluctance,
Owen

#AdorableHowObsessedYouAreWithMe

Dear Mr. Brodie,

Thank you for your email. Please inform Sam that I like him very much and would love to be his nanny and accompany him on your terrible joke of a stand-up tour.

I can assure you—things will not get complicated. For many, many reasons.

Primarily because Owen Brodie isn’t funny, and he can suck it.

Out of financial desperation and a fondness for your son,
Frankie

REVIEW: FUNNY BUSINESS is the first instalment in Kayley Loring’s contemporary,adult, BRODIE BROTHERS erotic, romance series. This is stand up comedians Owen Brodie, and Frankie Hogan’s storyline.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Owen and Frankie) following two timelines, FUNNY BUSINESS follows three years after wanna be comedienne Frankie Hogan heckled her childhood idol, former actor/model turned comedian Owen Brodie. Fast forward to present day wherein Frankie continues to virtually ‘heckle’ our storyline hero as her own stand up career slowly implodes. Having been fired from yet another job, Frankie finds herself facing her life-long crush turned nemesis, Owen Brodie, when her uncle turned talent agent Martin Hancock, finds her a job working as the nanny for Owen’s seven year old son Sam. A month long assignment finds Frankie touring America with our story line hero including a one-night stand up in Detroit, Michigan, where Frankie kills on the standup stage. As Frankie begins to fall for Owen’s son Sam, Owen begins to fall for the woman who has trolled him online for close to three years. What ensues is the building but forbidden romance and relationship between Owen and Frankie, and the potential fall-out as their time together comes to a close.

Frankie Hogan has been struggling with her stand up routine but time spent with Owen meant a chance as an assistant writer on Owen’s new television show but everything in Hollywood is about appearances, and Owen is about to discover that his relationship with Frankie may be a bone of contention with the people higher up. Owen Brodie is a single father whose first wife wasn’t a fan of his time on the road, leaving Owen to find love with someone else. Needing a nanny for his seven year old son, Owen never expected to come face to face with his online troller, a woman who stirred something deep within our story line hero.

The relationship between Owen and Frankie is an enemies to lovers, forbidden relationship. Frankie struggles with her own failing stand up career, taking aim at the man who has starred in all of her fantasies since the age of fourteen. Owen played along with his online ‘troll’ never expecting to come face to face three years after she heckled his routine. Falling for Frankie was easy, letting her go nearly broke his heart. The $ex scenes are intimate, passionate and steamy without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced, via numerous texts and emails to Owen’s brothers Dylan and Miles, and their parents Mama and Pops Brodie; Frankie’s friend Mia, and her talent agent uncle Martin Hancock.

The author uses numerous texts and emails, as well as phones calls and journal entries to help build the world of FUNNY BUSINESS. Slated as a rom-com, Kayley Loring capitalizes on an inordinate number of fart, butt, Dick and poop jokes aka toilet humor which may or may not be suited to your idea of humor or fun. FUNNY BUSINESS is a story of fame and success, struggles and acceptance, family, friendships, relationships and love. The premise is engaging and entertaining; the romance is provocative; the characters are playful and energetic.

Before writing steamy romantic comedy novels, Kayley Loring got a BFA in creative writing from a Canadian university and had a fifteen-year career as a screenwriter in Los Angeles (under a different name). She mostly wrote PG-13 family comedies that studios would pay her lots of money for and then never make into movies. In 2017 she decided to move to the Pacific Northwest and write about all the fun stuff that she wasn’t allowed to write about in those PG-13 scripts. Now she’s breathing cleaner air and writing dirtier words. It’s an adjustment she’s happily getting used to.

REVIEW: A VERY FRIENDLY VALENTINE’S DAY is the second instalment in Kayley Loring’s contemporary, adult, erotic, holiday, rom-com series. This is twenty-six year old actor Edward ‘Eddie’ Cannavale, and archivist Birdie Backett’s story line. A VERY FRIENDLY VALENTINE’S DAY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Eddie is Gavin’s brother (A VERY BOSSY CHRISTMAS).

Told from three first person perspectives (Eddie, Birdie, Piper) A VERY FRIENDLY VALENTINE’S DAY follows the best friends to lovers relationship between twenty-six year old actor Edward ‘Eddie’ Cannavale, and archivist Birdie Backett’. Birdie and Eddie have been best friends since the day they met in college, six years earlier, but Eddie’s star is on the rise, and he is currently in a virtual relationship with a woman he met on social media, a woman he has never met in real life. Birdie, afraid to fly, books a train trip to New York, a trip in which Eddie invites himself, in an effort to meet the woman he has never met but a series of comical errors finds our couple together on the Valentine’s Day ‘Love Train’ trying desperately to keep their palpable sexual attraction from going ‘off the rails’. As the trip enters sexual territory, Eddie gets waylaid on a stop over in Chicago, and realizes he has fallen in love with his best friend. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Eddie and Birdie, as our couple must navigate Eddie’s career, and the social media that follows their every move.

The relationship between Eddie and Birdie is a friends to lovers romance that is strong in texting, and a drunken profession of love from our story line hero. The back and forth banter is flirty and fun; the $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and hot.

The secondary and supporting characters include Eddie’s brother Gavin, as well as their large extended loud and boisterous Irish/Italian family (mostly via phone). We are introduced to Birdie’s best friend Layla; Eddie’s instagram girlfriend Alana, who we only know through texts and messages; Nancy, the sleeping car attendant on the train who sees more than most; casting director Debra Silver, as well as Rupert Norton III, a stranger on the train who takes an interest in our story line heroine. The majority of the story line follows the couple on the train to New York.

A VERY FRIENDLY VALENTINE’S DAY is a fun and flirty , spicy and inviting story. The character driven premise is amusing and engaging; the romance is spicy and seductive; the characters are sassy, lively and spirited.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 26, 2020

What’s the actual last thing you’d ever want your executive assistant to see you doing the morning after you had hot, drunk, angry sex with her in a terrible hotel room? Dancing around your terrible hotel room to “Come and Get Your Love” like Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy—naked? Yeah. Me too.

And yet, here we are.

This isn’t even the most unprofessional thing that’s happened between us in the past couple of weeks.

The first was when I agreed to let her have Christmas Day off, but only if she goes with me to three family gatherings as my fake girlfriend.
The second was when she caught me belting out a Christmas song on stage in the awful hotel bar.
The third was the hot, drunk, angry sex that followed, but I do not regret it.

And she hasn’t even found out the real reason I need her by my side this holiday season.

I need to pull it together before I do the dumbest, most unprofessional thing of all—fall head over heels in love with the only assistant who’s lasted more than a month at the job and claims to hate me and my moods more than she hates eggnog.

And I’ve seen how much she hates eggnog.

REVIEW: . A VERY BOSSY CHRISTMAS by Kayley Loring is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, holiday themed erotic, romance story line focusing on thirty-two year old, high powered attorney Declan Cannavale, and twenty-eight year old, executive assistant Maddie Cooper.

Told from three first person perspectives (Declan, Maddie, Piper) A VERY BOSSY CHRISTMAS follows the forbidden relationship between thirty-two year old, high powered attorney Declan Cannavale, and twenty-eight year old, executive assistant Maddie Cooper. Maddie Cooper is Declan Cannavale’s executive assistant, and as such finds herself facing a Christmas working in the office with her ‘Scrooge’ of a boss but a home visit from Declan pushes all of Maddie’s buttons when our hero reveals he needs a ‘fake girlfriend’ for the Christmas holidays, holidays to be spent in Cleveland, with his family back home. Unable to resist, Maddie agrees only to discover that the Cannavale family dynamic is broken by betrayal and mistrust. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Maddie and Declan, and the potential fall-out as their time together comes to a close.

Declan knows there is a ‘no fraternizing’ policy at work but our hero is desperate. He needs a plus-one, or more specifically a buffer, to shield him from the anger and heart break of sins of the past. From Christmas Eve dinner, to a rehearsal party and the wedding of one of his brothers, Declan pulls Maddie into a potential disaster, only to discover that his heart has fallen for a woman who fears her heart will be broken when the holidays are done.

The relationship between Declan and Maddie is a forbidden romance; a fake boyfriend/girlfriend arrangement between the boss and his assistant, an assistant who very much wants to keep her job but once the couple crosses the line between a working relationship into something more, the struggle is real when both families see the potential for a permanent connection, and Maddie sees nothing but the potential for problems at work. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text. The sexual attraction is immediate and palpable.

We are introduced to a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and fun secondary and supporting characters including Declan’s rather loud and boisterous Irish/Italian family: sister Casey and her daughter Penelope; brothers Aiden, Eddie and Brady, and Brady’s fiancé Hannah, their parents Mamie and Tony, and Nonna Francesca and numerous cousins all raring to get down at Brady’s bachelor party- the frenetic back and forth energy between cousins is hilarious; Maddie’s sister Rebecca aka Bex, and her niece Piper; their parents Carly and Joe Cooper, as well as Maddie’s neighbour Mrs. Pavlovsky.

A VERY BOSSY CHRISTMAS is a story of family, relationships, forgiveness and love. The premise is engaging, clever and inviting; the characters are dynamic and real; the romance is spicy, flirty and seductive. A VERY BOSSY CHRISTMAS is a wonderfully, breath-taking and lively look at a forbidden relationship and another happily ever after.
