BOOK ONE - Nun Too Soon

Helen is just your normal, everyday librarian who writes romance novels on the side… except she also happens to be a former nun, new to life outside the order and to the dating scene. Helen isn’t just a virgin in her 30s– she’s never had a boyfriend, never kissed anyone, never even so much as held someone’s hand. Becoming a nun was always her path, until it wasn’t anymore, and trying to forge a new path in life has been…tricky.

What isn’t tricky? Her unrequited crush on the handsome library patron that Helen and her friends have affectionately nicknamed ‘The Red Unicorn’ -- a man who loves to read, looks great in glasses, and has red hair, aka Helen’s dream man. But the idea of dating is still intimidating, so Helen prefers to daydream about Thad from afar, turning him into her perfect romance novel hero.

Thad is far from perfect, not like the smart, sexy librarian he’s been surveilling. Thad is a bounty hunter who’s determined to find Helen’s brother, Dean, and he’s certain Helen is the key to tracking Dean down. Thad never plans to approach Helen or insert himself into her life–until it becomes clear he’s not the only one looking for Dean. The other people after him are bad news, and Helen’s going to get caught in the crossfire if Thad doesn’t intervene.

As Thad and Helen work together to find Dean, they actually get to know each other, soon realizing that the perfect, ideal versions they have of each other couldn’t be more wrong…but that who they are together might actually be just right.

 BOOK TWO - Nun the Wiser

Matilda Markov is ready to put her former nun days behind her and experience all the worldly pleasures she can. (ALL the worldly pleasures.) But when she feels her friend group starting to slip away from her, just like she's lost so many people who were close to her before, she takes some bold action to try to keep everyone together. If only she can anticipate everything that could possibly go wrong, always, she might be able to keep her life from falling apart.

What she doesn't see coming from a million miles away? Kimo Kapono, the surfer-dude/secret multimillionaire with a heart of gold who treats her like a lady, pays off her student loans, and who can't seem to keep himself from getting kidnapped (repeatedly). Kimo is the golden retriever to Matilda's black cat, and he's determined to win her heart---or get thrown in the back of a van with tinted windows trying.

Beneath her prickly exterior, Matilda is terrified of letting someone in, and even more terrified of losing someone she loves, again. She's always known she's not the kind of person who gets a love story--snarky bitches who've locked away their hearts rarely do. Luckily Kimo's not afraid to get creative. If he can't find the key, he'll just use a jackhammer...

 BOOK THREE - Second to Nun

Chaperoning her cousin on a reality dating show was supposed to be easy. Falling for the undercover agent pretending to be a contestant? Not so much.

Nina has spent her entire life trying not to take up too much space. So when her cousin is cast on the new reality dating show Mountain Man, Nina knows what's expected of her: stay quiet, stay helpful, and stay out of the spotlight.

But that plan implodes the moment Wes shows up.

Wes is the only person who’s ever truly seen Nina. Unfortunately, he’s also an undercover FBI agent, pretending to be a contestant so he can take down a dangerous criminal. Getting distracted by Nina could ruin everything.

Wes can’t risk blowing his mission. Nina can’t risk her family getting dragged into the mess. Which means they absolutely, definitely need to stay far away from each other.

Too bad that’s the one thing neither of them seems capable of doing.

Because reality TV is unpredictable. And falling in love might be the most dangerous twist of all.

Second to Nun is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone. It is Book #3 in the Bad Habit Book Club series, Seduction in the City World, Penny Reid Book Universe.
