Nothing But Friends is live.

Holly and Dexter are finally here.

My best friend Holly wants my baby.
Not a relationship, not romance.
Just a baby.
We’ve been friends since high school: nights sneaking out, sharing peanut butter sandwiches on her mom’s garage roof… but never more than that.
No cuddles.
Hardly even hugs.
And now she’s proposing we make a baby together – the old-fashioned way – with conditions:
No feelings involved.
No complications.
Definitely no kissing.
I should have said no right there. To all of it.

Thank you for every preorder, every message, every comment, every bit of excitement you shared with me.

“Nothing But Friends” is available on Amazon.

I hope you fall a little bit in love with these two the way I did.

One Week Until Holly & Dexter

Holly Has a Proposal

One week until Holly & Dexter.

In seven days, “Nothing But Friends” will officially be out in the world.

Holly and Dexter have known each other forever. Childhood friends. History. The kind of connection that feels safe enough to say, “I want your baby.”

Which is exactly why Holly came up with a very logical plan:

No romance.

No feelings.

Just one tiny little baby pact between friends.

The text that started it all:

Holly walks into this conversation with notes.

Dexter walks into it completely unprepared for what she’s about to ask him.

And after that? 

The rules stop feeling so clear.

Because once Dexter stops pretending he’s unaffected… well.

You’ll see.

Over the last week, I’ve been reading your ARC messages and your reactions to the audiobook samples on Instagram, and I just want to say thank you. Seeing your excitement for Holly and Dexter has made me even more excited to finally share this book with you.

If you’ve already preordered, thank you so much.

And if you haven’t yet, there’s still time.

“Nothing But Friends” releases on May 26, 2026.

One more week until Holly and Dexter officially stop being mine and become yours.🤍

Next time I email you, the book will be out.

Nothing But Friends: Cover and Narrator Reveal

Hi reader,

Well, you made that easy. So many of you voted, and the result is clear: Cover 1 won by a mile. The male cover with the paper pieces officially takes the crown.

And since we’re sharing updates, I finally get to tell you who’s bringing this story to life in audio.

“Nothing But Friends” is a DUET multi-cast production starring:

Vanessa Edwin
and Anthony Palmini

Featuring:

Sean Masters,
Zara Hampton-Brown,
and James Cassidy

This story started with a simple idea.

Two best friends. No feelings, no strings, just one very clear goal: help her have a baby, then let her go. The problem? He didn’t plan on falling for her.

I spent part of last week listening through the files from the studio. And I loved it. Like, genuinely completely loved it.

Anthony and Vanessa absolutely nailed the tension. The chemistry in certain scenes, it was even better than I’d hoped! But what I loved most was hearing all five narrators together. Sean and Zara made me giggle immediately. And James… OMG. You’ll know it when you hear it.

Here’s a tiny (fun!) glimpse of the five voices on IG:

“Nothing But Friends” releases on May 29th, and the audiobook will be available across all major retailers worldwide within 45 days of the release date.

Whispersync will be available shortly after the audiobook release, usually within a few days across all platforms.

Cover Reveal: Nothing But Friends

It’s finally time.

You’ve seen the title, you’ve seen a tiny peek of the cover for “Nothing But Friends.”

Now it’s time for the official paperback cover and blurb:

My best friend Holly wants my baby.
Not a relationship, not romance. 
Just a baby. 
Apparently, that’s a perfectly reasonable thing to ask your best friend.
And if I say no?
She’ll find someone else.
We’ve been best friends since we were kids.
We’ve never even kissed.
Never cuddled. Hardly even hugged.
Now we’re trying to make a baby.
We do and say things we never would have under normal circumstances.
She insists this changes nothing.
For me, it changes everything.
I was supposed to give her a baby, not fall hopelessly in love with her.
And now I’m staring at two pink lines…
and realize I’ve made a terrible mistake.
Somewhere along the way,
I gave her my heart.
The one thing she never asked for.

I truly can’t wait to get this story into your hands. “Nothing But Friends” comes out in May 2026, and you can grab it now at the preorder price.

Freezing fingers, snowmen, and audiobook news

Quick check-in from my very cold corner of the world. 

How are you surviving winter so far?

It’s been full-on winter here. Cold air, frozen fingers, a runny nose, and lots of bundling up. I took a couple of snowy photos I really love, right before my fingers completely froze.

If you’ve built a snowman (or seen a good one lately) please send me a photo. I love looking at them and they make winter much more fun.

I’m especially weak for anything even remotely Olaf-like. 

Poor guy. Poor guy. Lost his nose 🥕

On the book front, I have good news: Next week, I can finally start prepping “Nothing But Friends” for the audiobook studio.

And I’m ridiculously excited about this part: it’s going to be a multi-cast audiobook. I’ll be announcing the narrators soon. One is a longtime favorite of mine, and the other three are voices I’m working with for the first time. I can’t wait to share more once it’s official.

Before I let you go, one quick thing:

“The CEO Enemy” is part of a Kindle Deal, starting today. (US & Canada only. Sorry to my UK readers!) If you’re not familiar with Kindle Deals, it just means Amazon features the ebook for a limited time at a lower cost than usual, so it’s a nice chance to grab it if it’s been sitting on your TBR.

That’s all from me for now. Stay warm, keep your fingers thawed, and don’t forget to send me your snowman pics.

Love,

Jolie

The real title is:

Four of you guessed it right.

“Nothing But Friends” is up for preorder. (paid link)

The full cover reveal is coming next, and there’s some audiobook news I’ve been dying to tell you.

Since Halloween is around the corner, I also wanted to pass along a little treat from my friend Jenny Foster. You can download her steamy romance “Asher’s Brith: Grim” for free for a few days. Definitely check your triggers, but if you’re in the mood for something different, this one will hook you. Think dark and sexy, but with comedy to keep it light.
Oh, it’s on audio too. DUET narration with Angelina Rocca, Gregory Salinas, and Oscar Reyes in a breathtaking cameo. The book is Whispersync. That means once you grab the ebook, you can usually add the audio at a crazy low price.

Happy Halloween,

Jolie Day

New Release: Holly and Dexter

Holly and Dexter’s story is just about finished.

I’ll be sending the manuscript to my editor soon, which gives us plenty of time to get everything ready for a release in May 2026.

This one has my whole heart: childhood best friends, a baby pact, and a protective alpha who falls hard. The two main characters have lived in my head and heart for so long that makes it hard to let them go. I’ve smiled with them, ached with them, and I loved every second of writing their story.

Some of the fun bits (just a peek):

I already have the photo for the ebook from the photographer, and I teamed up with one of my favorite cover design firms. The very first draft came in and I knew instantly: this is it. I’ve never loved a cover this much.

We’re creating versions for both the ebook and a paperback, and we’re down to the last details now. I can’t wait to show you.

In the meantime, here’s a taste for now.

Can you guess the title?

Any ideas what it might be?

Covers, snippets, everything else will follow.

And good news for everyone who’s been waiting: “Blind Date with the Billionaire Doc” is now live on Audible (paid link). And yes, it’s narrated in DUET. It’ll be available on all major retailers worldwide within the next few days.

“This is the best book that I have read in a long time.  Fantastic over a 5 star.” -GoodReads Reviewer

🎧  For all you audiobook lovers, there will be an audiobook. Drumroll please! The narrators are Jason Clarke and Samantha Brentmoor. The book is a best friends-to-lovers romance with tons of laughs and tons of steam.

Laney isn’t a romantic prospect, nerdy and shy.

But she makes a hell of a friend, my best one, technically.

Of course, I’d never think about touching her.

Not today. 

Not tomorrow. 

Not ever.

Then she moves into my penthouse.
