Romance Book Launch: Ria Alice and Jessica May

Ria Alice and Jessica May are gearing up for their first official book launch event on Thursday 21st January from 6.30pm! Following the release of their debut series, ‘The Hidden Series’, the writing duo are back with the first instalment of their next one.

‘The Second Time I Noticed’ is a spicy romance novel centred around Isabella and Xander, old school mates with a complicated history. When life forces them back together, will the same differences of the past keep them apart or will the tension between them be too much to ignore?

Join us for an evening of bookish crafts, games and the authors reading the first couple of chapters. Along with further freebies to take home.

Books will exclusively be available to purchase at the event ahead of the official release, with an option to be signed by the authors.

BIOGRAPHY

Ria and Jess are two friends from the UK who bonded over their shared love of steamy romance novels and decided to start writing their own.

Their stories are filled with pop culture nods, strong, supportive female friendships, and of course, plenty of spice!

When they’re not busy writing, you’ll probably find them screaming along at a 2000s emo night, belting out karaoke, or binging cheesy rom-coms with a charcuterie board in front of them.

At the heart of it all, they just love creating stories that make their readers giggle, swoon, kick their feet and maybe blush a little.
