Contemporary Romance

I write filthy books about women who have been told their turn is over.
Yes, Ma’am
For ten years they called her indispensable. Not one of them ever called her beautiful.
Melissa Claiborne gave twenty years to a marriage. Then she gave ten more to raising her daughter alone, after her husband and her best friend took that marriage from her on the same Thursday afternoon.
Now she is fifty. Her daughter is three time zones away. And she is the most capable person in a building where the man in charge has called her my girl out front since 2015.
Then her boss’s son walks in.
Jake Ashford is twenty five, fresh out of an MBA program, and so completely undone by her that she has to look away first. He is her employer’s son. He is five years older than her daughter. He is the single worst idea she has ever had.
He is also the first person in eleven years who looked at her and saw a woman instead of a filing system.
Melissa Claiborne is finished being useful. Now she is going to find out what she is actually worth.
Heat level: scorching. Explicit, unapologetic, and not remotely for the faint of heart.
Hers to Keep is a Why Choose trilogy and it builds across the three books.
Book one is Melissa and Jake. One man, on her terms, start to finish. The other two arrive in books two and three, and by the end she does not choose between them, because she is not going to be asked to.

She got the title. She got the five percent. She got a date that belongs to nobody else.
Now she would like the rest of it.
Yes, ma’am was her learning to ask.
Take a number is her learning she does not have to.

About
Greta Larkin
I am interested in the specific moment a woman stops being useful and starts being a person, and in the fact that this moment almost never arrives at a convenient age.
My heroines are in their forties, fifties, and beyond. They are funny, they are tired, they are not sorry, and they are not finished.
I live in the Midwest, keep unreasonable hours, and would like everyone to know that the second burner on my own stove has not worked since 2019.
