I’m so glad you stopped by! My name is Tomi (pronounced Toh-me) and I write sweet, closed door romance novels. That means if you pick up one of my books, you’ll find lots of heart, humor, and kissing without any spice.

This website is intended to be your one-stop-shop for all things related to my books. I try and keep it up-to-date, but the best way to make sure you don’t miss anything is by subscribing to my newsletter.

A little about me: I live in the Western United States, have an MA in History, and love pumpkin flavored foods.

I came to Excelsior Parks for my dream job: designing world-class roller coasters. 

Theo Riverton is the one variable I didn’t account for. 

He’s the brilliant, demanding head of the Orlando office. And he has no problems reminding me that I’m the rookie who hasn’t earned her place at the table. Yet. Every design meeting feels like a stress test—with me as the weakest structural component.  

Every time he pushes, my need to prove him wrong grows. But the longer I spend under his watchful eye, the more I realize his impossible standards aren’t personal. Beneath the designer suits and grumpy facade is a man who cares deeply about his people. Including me. 

And that’s the problem. Because falling for the boss is strictly off-limits. 

Worse? I’ve also been living a double life. I’m not just Kaori Minami, a junior engineer. I’m also a Japanese princess. If Theo or anyone finds out the truth about who I am, the independence I’ve fought so hard to gain will vanish in a cloud of paparazzi flashes. 

I’m used to calculating G-forces and fail-safes, but navigating the high-speed turns of a forbidden attraction? That’s a whole different kind of thrill ride—and I just hope I can survive the fall. 





I’m Ava Brown, and I’ve never been great at taking risks—especially when it comes to love. After years of harboring a crush on my best friend Dylan, I finally work up the nerve to tell him how I feel. Only, it does not go well.

With my ego bruised and my heart officially wrecked, I throw myself into running my vet clinic. Dating? Absolutely not. I’ve got more important things to worry about, like how to bring in new clients.

But then a late-night emergency involving a muddy cat introduces me to Fernando, a guy who has a sexy Spanish accent and is alarmingly good-looking. Helping him out starts as a one-time favor, but somehow, we keep crossing paths.

When I take my first vacation in years to Spain to clear my head, guess who turns up again? You guessed it—Fernando. What was supposed to be just a fun road trip quickly turns in to me suggesting a fake relationship in order to get his matchmaking aunts off his back.

I told myself I wouldn’t fall for one of my friends again, but my heart has other ideas. I’ve always played it safe, but falling for Fernando might be the biggest—and best—risk I’ve ever taken. Is it still a risk if it feels exactly right?
