Abby Gaines writes funny, tender romance that’ll leave you smiling. Give your day a lift by reading an excerpt from one of her books now.

Now available: An excerpt of Abby Gaines’ new book, The Comeback, a February 2010 release from Harlequin NASCAR. Clink on the link on the righthand side of this page to read the excerpt. The Comeback is part of the exciting ongoing series of connected stories from Harlequin NASCAR, and is also the story of the third (and last) brother in Abby Gaines’ popular Matheson family novels.

Romantic Times gave The Comeback 4 stars, saying, “Gaines tackles the complexities of family relationships head-on in this entertaining read filled with three-dimensional characters you’ll be rooting for until the very end.”

A whole new Harlequin NASCAR series kicks off soon, with each book comprising two novellas. Abby Gaines’ Chasing the Dream is one of the first novellas. The collection, titled The Memory of a Kiss, will be out in June. Great news is, you don’t need to be a racing fan to enjoy these books, as the new, romantic covers attest!

I hope you enjoyed my Those Merritt Girls miniseries from Superromance. Her Surprise Hero (Jan 2010) was the last in the series. Except, as usual, I couldn’t quite let The End be the end…I wrapped up the series with a fairly long short story about Jonah Merritt, notorious dad of The Merritt Girls. Check it out on the For Readers page. To learn more about how some of my stories are connected to others, check out my Book Connections page. If you’d like to email me, I’d love to hear from you.
