About this ebook

International Bestselling Sensation Ava Miles treats you to a binge-your-heart-out, blockbuster series, starting with this #1 National Bestseller and Best Book of the Year (USA Today). Welcome to Dare Valley, the small-town with big heart—where romance, family, suspense, and happily ever after are the way of life. 

"Ava's story is witty and charming." – Barbara Freethy, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Her ex blamed their break-up on her reading too many romance novels.

She set out to prove him wrong.

When journalist Meredith Hale's dreams of happily ever after—or Nora Roberts Land as she calls it—go up in smoke, she leaves the big city to return to her family and their small town newspaper. A new start? Yes please! Not to mention that it’s a chance to prove her ex wrong. She will find her own romantic hero, prove that true love exists, and publish a story about her quest—even if it kills her.

Tanner McBride has just returned stateside to work for a major newspaper. The last thing he expects is blackmail. His assignment? Make his boss’s ex-wife fall for him and then break her heart. Her article about discovering love à la Nora might air dirty laundry about her marriage to the media mogul, threatening his senate run.

When the two meet, the sparks between them are undeniable. Could Tanner be her Roarke? As they work together to uncover the truth behind a suspicious death, the depth of their feelings unfolds and both realize they've kept their secrets for far too long. But before the truth can be revealed, their investigation takes a deadly turn, one that might make Meredith's personal Nora Roberts Land go up in flames.

**Nora Roberts gave her blessing to Ava for the use of her name in both the title and the premise in NORA ROBERTS LAND.**

Ratings and reviews

I loved this book! I am a huge Nora Roberts fan, and accidentally happened upon this book. I am so glad I did. I couldn't put it down! This book spoke to me on several personal levels and I was hooked from the first page. I recommend this book to all readers looking for a great read full of romance and fun. I look forward to reading more books by Ava Miles! The sequel is next on my list, I can't wait to see what happens!! Thank you to Ava Miles for your book, I love finding new authors that write great stories like Nora!!

Was getting interesting but you tore the rug out from under me. Makes me not want to read nothing more of any story. It needs some type of ending, not just out there.

Could have been a 5 but the F bomb was on almost every page ....i skipped through most of the pages just to know what the ending would be , call me really old fashioned but the book could have been very good without all the language and sex ....must be what the youbger generation accepts as a good read , i started on my book worm reads with Nora and don't remember from youth having all of this so No , i think one star as it was a good plot but the F word ruined it for me.
