Hey there, and welcome!
I’m Leanna Ellis, an award-winning author of sweet, small-town romances—with humor, heart, and guaranteed happily-ever-afters. Over a million readers have fallen for my laugh-out-loud romantic comedies (bless them for coming along on the ride!).

Life has a way of throwing curveballs—but humor (and maybe a slice of pie or a wedding cupcake…especially chocolate 🍫) can make even the hardest days sweeter. Around here, community makes the tough moments softer, the happy ones brighter, and the laughter a whole lot louder. So cozy up!

✨ New Release: The Wedding Letter Series ✨
This season, fall in love with The Wedding Ruse—a sweet, swoony, small-town rom-com about a pretend engagement, a Christmas-light catastrophe, and one unexpected spark between two neighbors who definitely did not plan on falling for each other.

Elle Peterson knows weddings—she bakes the cakes, after all. But real romance? That’s trickier. When she meets Cash—her neighbor’s handsome grandson—she impulsively ropes him into a fake engagement so she can finally open the mysterious Wedding Letter meant for “brides-to-be.” Neither of them expects the ruse to feel this real… or for chemistry to crackle like those runaway Christmas lights.

Set in Storybrook, Georgia, this installment of The Wedding Letter Series sparkles with community charm, sisterly love, and the kind of heart-flipping, cupcake-sweet romance readers love.

So grab a cup of coffee (or something stronger—I don’t judge!) and cozy up on the porch or with a comfy blanket before a roaring fire. When you join my Love, Life & Laughter newsletter, you’ll receive a FREE bonus prologue from The Wedding Letters series—plus behind-the-scenes peeks, new release news, and stories meant to lift your heart. Whether you’re here for a new book, a good laugh, or just a little escape, I hope you find a place where you belong.

With love, life, and laughter (not always in that order),
Leanna
