Putting together her love of travel with her love of a good story, Colleen writes contemporary travel romance with lots of spice. Her characters experience the world with curiosity (even if reluctant at first!). Their best memory, of course, will be falling in love in the process!
Coming Spring 2026!
Rose just needs to survive traveling with her nemesis …
If only Grant didn’t push her buttons.
If only she didn’t like it.
Grant Anderson is the worst. He’s arrogant, entitled, and rudely attractive. Rose Randolph tries to avoid her nemesis at all costs. She’s mostly successful. After all, she works in sustainable travel, he in luxury travel. Their paths hardly cross.
Until their sparring on a travel panel goes viral, revealing the rivalry between both them and their companies. To harness the social media attention, their bosses hatch a plan to send Rose and Grant traveling together. She fears disaster, knowing Grant will test her limits—and the pesky attraction she tries to ignore.
As they travel across Europe and East Africa, Rose faces her own judgments and misperceptions. Traveling together—when things go right and horribly wrong—teaches her things she’d rather not know about Grant: he looks great in a swimsuit, he makes her laugh, he smells like a forest.
Simmering attraction turns into satisfying sex, and Rose’s feelings for Grant grow too real for her to deny. When their bosses turn rivals again, Rose faces hard choices for her career and her heart. Upending her life might be just the thing she needs to have everything she wants.
