Three years ago, Madeline Bennett was at the peak of her chicken showing career. Then, everything changed for the worse.
George Cooper, an arrogant English poultry judge, discounts Madeline’s prize rooster at The National, the biggest and most important bird show in the United States. That same night, an accident simultaneously cripples her leg and kills almost the entirety of her prized flock.
Now, Madeline is back on the show circuit, trying to start over. What she isn’t prepared for is seeing George again—the man whom she’s come to consider her most ‘fowl’ enemy.
Feathers fly, and, despite a frustrating attraction that develops against their mutual better judgment, Madeline decides she’s done with George for good—until an investigation into a corrupt poultry judge on the show circuit forces the pair back together.
Note: Paperbacks are available from all of the above retailers, but the ebook and special edition hardcover are exclusive to Amazon.

Love & Chickens is a hate-to-love, contemporary rom-com with mild, open door spice set in the world of poultry showing. It has disability rep (FMC uses a cane as-needed) and features a HEA.
Content warnings include cursing throughout, multiple references to and detailed descriptions of car accidents, a few brief mentions of drug use and a mention of overdose, a few mentions/brief descriptions of an abusive ex-partner to include mention of physical assault, ableism, mention/brief description of past death of an animal, mention of death of parents, and a brief mention/vague description of past self-harm.
Chapter numbers with spice (if reading in ebook form) or page numbers (if reading the paperback or hardcover) are available upon request by emailing the author, if you think you would like to read the book but might prefer to skip these scenes. They are not very long and are not overly descriptive; early readers have described the book as “cute” and “sweet”, but it is still technically open door.
