Welcome!

Welcome to my brand new website!

Hi there, and welcome to my little corner of the internet! I’m Adeline J. McLeod, and I’m so excited that you’ve stopped by.

For me, writing is all about creating stories that make you feel—whether that’s love, joy, heartache, or that magical spark that comes from two people finding each other in the most unexpected of ways. I’m all about romance and exploring those complicated, beautiful relationships that make life so interesting. If you’re a fan of heartfelt love stories with a bit of magic (or maybe a whole lot of magic!) and a dash of spice, you’re definitely in the right place.

A Little Bit About Me

I’m a full time wife, mom, and NICU nurse and an author on the side. But before I became any of those things, I was, and am, an avid reader. Somewhere along my three decades of life, I realized I had stories of my own to tell. Writing became my way of sharing the worlds and characters I’d dreamed up in my head (not to mention free therapy.) My goal is to write books that transport you to new places and keep you hooked until the very last page. If my stories leave you with a smile, a sigh, or even a few happy tears, then I’ve done my job.

Right now, I’m working on expanding my cozy fantasy romance short story, The Inn & Its Keeper, into a full length novel. I have also published a holiday romance novella, A Billionaire for Christmas, which is all about a failed one night stand turned fake dating arrangement gone unexpectedly right (or maybe wrong, but in the best possible way!). If you haven’t read either story, feel free to check them out while we wait for the good stuff to come out. And trust me, there’s so much more in store—sneak peeks, surprises, and exclusive content that you won’t want to miss.

What You’ll Find Here

So, what’s this website all about? Well, here’s what you can expect:

  • Updates on My Books: This is the place to find all the latest news on my upcoming releases and current works in progress. I’ll be sharing behind-the-scenes looks at the stories I’m working on, and you’ll get the first scoop on all things book-related.

  • Exclusive Content: Want more than just the books? I’ll be offering some special bonus content—short stories, character deep dives and art, and other fun extras to make you feel even more connected to the worlds I’m building.

  • Blog Posts & Random Thoughts: I’ll be writing posts about my writing journey, life as an author, and all the little things that inspire me. I may even throw in some book recommendations and things that make me smile. I’d love for this space to feel like a cozy place where we can hang out together.

  • The Adeline’s Love Letters Newsletter: If you’re not already subscribed, you definitely should! My newsletter is where I send out fun updates, sneak peeks, and the occasional surprise. I’d love for you to join the family!

Why I Write

Writing is my way of escaping, of exploring different sides of love, and of creating connections with people I might never meet in real life. There’s something so powerful about love stories—about watching two characters evolve, challenge each other, and find their way to each other. Whether it’s a slow-burn romance or a passionate, whirlwind connection, I want to give you a story that makes you feel all those deep emotions and reminds you of the beauty of love in all its forms.

For me, it’s not just about creating happy endings (though I’m a sucker for them!). It’s about showing the messy, beautiful parts of relationships—the parts that make us stronger, more resilient, and more open to love. I want my stories to feel like a warm hug, a comforting escape, and a reminder that we all deserve love, no matter how imperfect we might be.

Thank You for Being Here

To all of you who have supported me from the start—thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your kind words, your emails, your reviews—it all means the world to me, and I’m so grateful for each and every one of you.

If you’re new around here, welcome! I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my stories. I hope you’ll stick around, grab a book, and join me on this adventure. There’s so much more to come, and I can’t wait to share it with you.

Let’s make this space a little home for all things love, magic, and everything in between. I’m so excited to be on this journey with you, and I hope we’ll be friends for a long time to come.

With all my love,
Adeline J. McLeod
