Marika Ray

A money-back guarantee on your writing shows a fine level of confidence in the quality of your work. USA Today bestselling author Marika Ray writes risqué Rom-Coms guaranteed to make you smile. She has a large collection of series she has written.

Sweet Dreams: A Small-Town Romance (Beach Squad Series Book 1) is the first in a series of contemporary, funny, romance novels.

Esa thinks she’s in a dream. Business at her little Hot Chocolate shop on the Pacific Coast Highway is great. Her best buddy Bailey is working at Nordstrom’s as a personal shopper, and life looks good right now.

A day at the beach was deserved. Esa and Bailey love to ride their bikes and the weather was perfect. The water was refreshing. Right up to the moment Esa was stung by a jellyfish.

Esa never did thank that pesky jellyfish. For without that nasty bite she never would have met a dreamy lifeguard. Totally tan, sun-bleached curly blond hair, and turquoise eyes had her short of breath.

Ivan rescued her from the jellyfish, treated her bite and ran with her in his arms to her bike. Evidently he loved showing off his strength and athletic prowess. She was smitten and agreed to meet him for hot chocolate the next morning.

Grumpy As Hell: A Small Town Romantic Comedy (Hellman Brothers Book 1) is another series of fun, romps of romance. Ace just set Addy’s pants on fire. After barging up to her, yelling at her, and ripping off his shirt to beat down the fire burning around her ankles he catches an eyeful of her bare breasts. She tried to cover them with her arm but they are too large to be contained with an arm. Addy’s prayed for the earth to open up and swallow her this second!

Ace has antagonized Addy since kindergarten. He ruined her performance of the Nutcracker then and continues to annoy her to this day. She’s the only woman under forty in town he hasn’t dated and she has zero intention of breaking that streak.

Besides, they are absolutely unsuited for each other. He’s the former star high school quarterback, now the hottest fireman in town with women contriving emergencies for his attention. No way is she pathetic like that.

She is known as the town kook who’s dad has been providing quality weed since before it was legal. Addy teaches yoga to the more enlightened town citizens out in the fresh air of the city park. Young and old stretch and breathe to a “cellular orgasm guaranteed”, the tag line on her business cards.

The people of Auburn Hill, aka “Hell”, either think she’s a goddess or the kooky girl who walks barefoot through town in her soft, flowing blouses, gently scented with essential oils and sandalwood incense. Addy ignores the haters; she loves her life.

So when the universe conspires to throw her and Ace together to teach a first aid class, she’s on guard. Ace takes every opportunity to prove her wrong and she’s throwing it back at every step, not willing to give an inch. Will this end with a bon-fire that can’t be extinguished?

Texting With the Enemy (Digital Dating Book 1) is yet another launch of a fun series of romantic rom-coms to read. Isabel “El” Watson jumps at the chance of a new job. She had approached her boss for a sales job but after the jelly donut exploded on her blouse and the jerk face laughed her out of the interview she knew she had to leave. The job at the new boutique winery was her ticket to a great new career.

Life is looking up. She met a great guy at the wine festival. Chad gave her his buddy Boston’s number as a joke on Boston. When she texts Chad later she doesn’t realize it’s actually Boston and he’s too nice to correct the mistake.

He also fails to corrects a few other misconceptions as well. #1: he’s her boss from the job she just left- the one who laughed her out the door. #2: his mother’s new winery is where she is going to work. #3: he’s always had a secret crush on her.

Sparks are flying on the text messages. Will Boston come clean? Will he ever tell her he is not Chad? Things are going to come out. When will she figure out she’s been Texting With the Enemy?

Each of Ms. Ray’s novels make great stand-alone reads. Some of the fun and exciting characters will reappear in the other books in each series.

Ms. Ray believes everyone should have a large number of careers to keep things spicy. She resides in California and likes to spend her time walking the Southern California beaches, preparing healthy meals for her husband and children, even if they don’t want healthy, and crafting her fun stories.

Prior to her career as a successful writer, she had other jobs with private start-ups, in finance, and eventually health and fitness. She feels like a cat with nine-lives. She likes to keep things zesty!
