Happy book birthday to Falling for You Again by Kerry Lonsdale

July 8, 2025

Summer means it’s Kerry Lonsdale season! A big happy book birthday to Falling for You Again, the 11th book by the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and Amazon Charts bestselling author. In this new work of romantic women’s fiction, fate reunites a young woman with her ex-husband in a delightful and inspiring novel about family, old loves, and marriage on a dare.

Furniture artisan Meli Hynes still abides by her uncle’s truism: the only lasting love story is the one between artists and their creations. Having already given marriage a shot―for all of twenty-four hours during a Las Vegas fling―Meli made her choice. The wood-crafting shop that is her family legacy will always come first.

But when her uncle decides to sell to a competitor, Meli’s promised inheritance goes belly-up. She’ll do anything to muddle the deal. Including a marriage of convenience to an unforgettable and very practical old friend―the competitor’s son, Aaron. With a controlling family of his own, and every bit as impulsive as Meli, Aaron is in. After all, this isn’t the first time he and Meli got hitched on a whim.

The rules of the ruse are simple: public displays of affection and live together as happy newlyweds. The hardest rule of all? Never let real feelings get in the way of what they plan to be a purely professional second time around.
