DLB Publishing is adding a new voice to its romance list, and it is not subtle. Bailey Jane writes contemporary romantic comedies that actually deliver on the “comedy” part—sharp banter, emotionally competent payoff, and chemistry that doesn’t apologize for taking up space.

Her signature is simple: high-stakes lives, high-heat attraction, and heroines who don’t fold just because the hero has money, fame, or a perfect jawline.

What Bailey Jane Writes

Bailey Jane’s romances sit at the intersection of sports, ambition, and second chances, with a clear promise to readers:

• Fast, witty pacing (no meandering “will they, won’t they” for 300 pages without progress)
• Open-door spice (earned, not gratuitous)
• Big feelings + bigger laughs
• Competent heroines and redeemable heroes
• Happily Ever After, non-negotiable

The First and Ten World

Bailey Jane joins DLB Publishing with her First and Ten series—a set of interconnected contemporary romances where love collides with public pressure, career power plays, and the messy consequences of being seen.

Titles include:

• Penalty for Property Damage – When an unstoppable public figure crashes into a quiet life, he learns the hard way that not everything can be fixed with a check.
• Offsides Attraction – Boardroom warfare meets unresolved history: corporate rivals, a single-mom CEO, and a second chance that comes with sharp edges.
• Playing the Long Game (in development) – Childhood best friends, long-buried feelings, and teammates determined to force the issue when the hero is clueless and the heroine is done waiting.

A Note on the Author Behind the Books

Bailey Jane’s voice is confident, cheeky, and direct—she writes like someone who enjoys the genre and respects the reader’s time. She also answers to “BJ,” which is either a harmless set of initials or an invitation for your group chat to behave badly. (Both can be true.)
