Behind the byline
Writing found Lynne Solisse later in life, and never let go. She writes romance that doesn’t flinch, centering on women who are fierce, loyal, and unafraid to demand more out of life. Women who want to reclaim passion on their own terms.
Whether contemporary, fantasy, or even proving that love can still burn bright in a gritty post-apocalyptic world, her stories are raw but sweet, fun and emotionally charged, threaded with just enough tension to keep your heart racing.
She lives in the Southern US with her three boys and two spoiled cats, and believes it’s never too late for a second chance. Or a plot twist.

On Lantern
Contemporary Romance
Reese is raising three little girls alone, holding their world together after losing the woman he loved. Grief doesn’t fade. It just settles in.
At forty-two, Margot is done rebuilding. Six years after her husband left, after nine years of assuring her infertility didn’t matter until suddenly it did, she’s returned home from years of solo travel stronger, independent, and determined not to risk her heart again.
Neither of them is looking for love.
But when friendship turns into something deeper, Margot finds herself drawn to the very life she thought she’d never have. And Reese begins to believe happiness might still be possible.
Love after loss isn’t about replacing what’s gone.
It’s about daring to want more.

He made her high school years hell. Twenty years later, the rules have changed.
Rose Parker came to her high school reunion expecting bad music, awkward small talk, and maybe a little nostalgia. She did not expect Billy Bradley—the obnoxious little brother of her best friend who spent years tormenting her—to show up all grown up, ridiculously attractive, and apparently still capable of getting under her skin.
Except Billy goes by William now. And somewhere beneath the muscles, confidence, and maddening smirk is a man she never knew existed.
The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore. So is the past.
But she isn’t the girl he used to tease anymore. She knows exactly who she is, exactly what she wants—and she has a particular fondness for putting bratty men in their place.
He may have spent their teenage years holding all the cards.
Now, she has the upper hand.
The Upper Hand is a spicy romance novel for adult readers with explicit, on-page sexual content and consensual BDSM between adults, including dominance/submission, bondage, and impact play. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
