Playing Dirty Romantic Comedy Stand Alones

Because playing dirty never felt so right…

THE CLIENT, THE MATCHMAKER, and THE BODYGUARD are LOL, steamy, stand-alone romances. Fall in love with their hot heroes, smart heroines, witty banter and all the hilarious situations. Lose yourself in a Playing Dirty Romantic Comedy!

THE CLIENT

★★★★★ “Sexy, effervescent banter and a second-chance romance with surprising depth…” Mia Hopkins Author

Description: 

I’m an underpaid assistant working at a matchmaking agency, surviving on Insta-Ramen and dreams. How is it possible that I made a love match that resulted in the society wedding of the year?

Christmas season is upon us and I plan on enjoying this gorgeous wedding by drinking too much Champagne, eating 5 star food, and relaxing for a change. I don’t plan on running into the smoking hot, tuxedo-clad brick wall of a man. I don’t plan on him stopping my fall by grabbing onto my boob and Not. Letting. Go. I most definitely don’t plan on this gorgeous man being my new CLIENT.

Joe is heir to the Delacroix Hotel fortune, whip smart, hilariously funny, and so yummy. I am tempted to… good God I want to… but sleeping with clients is a big, fat ‘No-No.’

Aren’t some rules meant to be broken?

THE BODYGUARD

★★★★★ “I loved… all the wonderful things you’d expect from a rom-com but it also had a very serious streak… For me, this was a powerful combo that I simply couldn’t resist.” Aunt G. Vine Reviewer

Description:

Maia the Midwesterner cute meets Max the So-Cal University Hot Guy on her first night in the City of Angels.

Maia’s got a secret – she’s trying to save a life. Max has a secret – he’s atoning for the one he damaged.

Maia makes Max laugh. Max shelters Maia.

Hearts crack open. Magic happens… Maybe they should have revealed their secrets earlier…

THE MATCHMAKER

★★★★★ “A ULTRA funny, swoony, something-special romcom from Pamela DuMond!… READ THIS NOW FIVE SHOOTING STARS!” Marie Brown.

Description:

Aiden

I abandoned the church, found a new way to serve people, and created Chicago’s premiere matchmaking agency. Now I’m an expert at finding true love for my clients but I’ve put my own needs on hold for a very. Long. Time.

Violet

I don’t want to be a Mafia princess. I’m building a sportswear company. But Mom’s dropping hints about grand babies and Uncle Vincent’s trying to marry me off to the son of a rival mob family. He even sends his goon to kidnap me at a Christmas party but a gorgeous guy rescues me by pretending to be my fiancé. 

Of course I go along with it. He’s smoking hot, a gentleman and we’re only pretending to be engaged for one night? What could possibly go wrong?

PRAISE

“Intense chemistry is abound with tons of sparks which makes for a sexy, funny, emotional, heartwarming romance.” April Symes

Hi friends, I'm participating in the To L.A. With Hi friends,

I'm participating in the To L.A. With Love Charity anthology. A new Mortal Beloved Romantasy called "The Academy of Mortal Mysteries" is included. 

I'd love for you to check this book out. It publishes on June 10th and is on pre-order now. Proceeds go to restoring the libraries hurt during the L.A. fires.

xo,
Pam

When wildfires destroyed two beloved Los Angeles public libraries in January 2025, the romance community answered with heart.

In To L.A. With Love, 100+ local and international authors and poets weave tales filled with sexy contemporary passion, dreamy historical romance, and spellbinding magical encounters. From the sweetest kiss to steam between the sheets, these tales remind us why we fall in love with books—because like libraries, they offer refuge, inspire dreams, and bring people together.

This anthology celebrates the power of romance, and all proceeds from To L.A. With Love support the restoration of the Altadena and Pacific Palisades libraries, proving that love stories can heal more than fictional broken hearts—they can rebuild community. Pick up your copy today, and join us in writing a new chapter for Los Angeles.
