About the Signature Sweethearts series
Signature Sweethearts is Kelsie Rae's debut series and the foundation of her career -- she wrote its first book, Taking the Chance, in just over a month without telling her family, after a stretch of devouring a romance novel a week following the birth of her first child. Each entry is a loosely connected standalone contemporary romance centered on a different couple, with characters from earlier books recurring in supporting roles across later ones, so the series can be read as a single continuous small-town romance universe or dipped into for any one couple's story.
The ten books cover a wide spread of romance tropes -- second-chance love after loss, forbidden workplace romance, friends-to-lovers, enemies-to-lovers, single-parent romance -- unified by Rae's emotionally driven, banter-heavy voice. Several books in the series have also been marketed under the character's first name alone (for example Taking the Chance as Liv, Off Limits as Rhett) across different print runs and retailers.
