Rumor has it… with men she just met, but when Jace Detweiler strikes up conversation two barstools down, she can’t help but feel like he might be exactly what the doctor ordered: one steamy night of unbridled passion.
What they didn’t expect was their sexy studio tryst becoming talk of the town.
Not willing to be taken down by the town’s cranky busy body armed with social media, Kinley concocts a plan to get even: a no-strings-attached fling in the name of revenge — a dish the sexy doctor and Broadway dancer are serving any way but cold.

This town keeps getting better and better!
Kinley and Jace have to face the gossip squad and man oh man are they crazy!
I love this group of friends I was introduced to in Sneaking Around and in each story they seem to up their game. I love that no matter how crazy things get, these friends stick together and up the ante to protect one another. Add to that a bit of a love story and some heat, and this makes another fantastic story in this little town of Pine Valley.
Kinley the dancer that made it big on Broadway is back in her small hometown teaching dance after a life-changing injury. Meet Jace the new kid’s doctor ……both are lonely just right for a hookup or two. This is a sweet, touching, funny love story as these two get to know each other and are caught by the town gossip that posts half-truths about them on Facebook. They each have to decide what is most important, love, family, or career. The characters are great and I loved the story.
When Kinley’s career as a Broadway dance is ended by an injury and her fiance dumps her she moves home to be with family. While sitting in the bar feeling sorry for herself she picks up the guy sitting next to her. Thinking it’s just going to be a one night stand Jace doesn’t know what he’s in for. When nasty old biddy that writes the town gossip page on Facebook starts embellishing the facts to make them look like more…… Stephanie has a sharp sense of humor that makes the pages hum. Totally worth the read, lots of fun, laughs and a really good time.

If you follow SSK on social media, you know she’s a freak over Christmas and the Hallmark Channel. Well this new series of hers has the Hallmark channel written all over it. In this fantastic read we get Jace, the town’s hottie pediatrician, and Kinley, who has returned from the big city full of anger and resentment after an injury has cost her her Broadway spotlight. A late night hookup between the two turns into an all-out revenge plot after the town busybody, Evelyn, spies the two and blasts them on her #RumorHasIt Facebook. Jace is endearing in his nervousness and I love how Kinley’s character grows so much throughout this book. All of my favorites are back from the first book and the shenanigans are in full blast. This is a fantastic series, and if you love the Hallmark channel, you don’t want to miss out!

In this story, we have Kinley, who was a dancer in NYC. However, she had a bad fall, and now is back in her home town, helping her sister teach little ones at a local dance studio. Kinley feels that she is a wash up and isn’t happy with her life now that she’s back home.
One night while trying to look for something to do in the small town, she winds up at the local bar, which is the only place open after 6p, and meets a handsome stranger who she is taken with.
Jace the local town pediatrician’s in town, was supposed to have a blind date and that was why he was in the bar. He sits next to Kinley and they hit things off.
A local town busy body – Nosy Nora had a Facebook page which talks about all the local gossip. She talks about how the Dr Jace and Kinley have been seeing each other and wonders if this is good for their town. Kinley and Jace decide to amp things up and give her more to talk about.
Will Jace and Kinley be able to keep up the fake relationship or will they really fall for each other?
I did receive a free ARC copy. I am freely leaving a honest review.
OMG Stephanie St Klaire had done it again. This is one of the best book I have read all year. I don’t know how she comes up with all these fantastic books but this a must read this Christmas.
Kinley Reed is the town’s dance teacher and a former Broadway dancer. Jace Detweiler is the town’s Pediatrician and a single dad. Bed Buddies is a perfect feel good short story full of romance, comedy and a busy body named Evelyn causing all kinds of havoc in this sweet small town. Will Kinley and Jace’s relationship withstand the busy body or will they grow stronger through all the craziness? I love Stephanie St. Klaire’s writing style and I have read every single amazing book by this author. Although this is a quick read it was packed full of comedy, passion and a heartwarming sweet romance. A definite one-click.
Kinley returns home to Pine Valley after a career ending injury. She had been living her dream dancing on Broadway but now she is home and her engagement is off. She has sworn off relationships. Jace is the town pediatrician and a single dad. He happens across Kinley in the local bar and they have a drunken one-night stand. Unfortunately their heated kiss is captured by the town busy body, Evelyn Shirley and she posts it on her gossip page on facebook. Kinley decides her revenge will be a fling with the handsome doc and away they go. Will Kinley allow herself to love again? Will she give up her new life in Pine Valley for another crack at her dream? This is a sweet story and I really enjoyed reading it. I highly recommend it.
A dance instructor (Kinley) is miserable as can be. She went from being someone to being a nobody in a matter of no time. But a chance meeting with Doctor Detweiler in a bar gives her a little pick me up. Just one night turns into another….and every time the #RumorHasIt busybody is right there to post all about it.
Stephanie St Klaire wrote another knock out great book! You wouldn’t be disappointed to read any book she writes!
Stephanie has a quirky witty sense of humor. This is the book to read to get all the feels. Pine Valleys busybody is at it again. A hot single dad / doctor and a Broadway star burning up there sheets… Oh my!!!!
Excellent, fast reading!
Bed Buddies is a fun story about the town Pediatrician, Jace Detweiler and a dance instructor, former Broadway dancer, Kinley Reed.
Both are longing for a fling when life throws Kinley and Jace together. Evelyn Shirley, town busy body, makes Jace and Kinley’s private escapade not so private on social media on Evelyn’s Rumor Has It Facebook page.

Jace is making it really hard for Kinley to NOT fall in love with him. Will Kinley leave and return to Broadway to live her dream? Will she stay and love Jace and JT?

I was so freaking excited to read this second book from the Rumor Has It series. Stephanie St Klaire is one of my favorite authors. I love all the humor in this book most of all. Sexy single dad Jace and the town new girl, Kinley, are making it all kinds of hot. This is a great page turner with a great group of supporting characters. You will love to hate evil miss Evelyn, she seems to be everywhere all at once. I loved this book, it did not disappoint!
Kinley and Jace’s story is sweet, fun, and quirky. This is a love story that starts as a casual hook up, grows to a fling as a scheme to outwit the town’s gossip, and becomes forever. This is a story overflowing with great characters and an engaging storyline which will keep you involved from beginning to end. This is a wonderful series that you don’t want to miss! There is so much scheming and shenanigans you won’t want to stop reading!
Loved both the stories in this series so far and hope there is more Pine Valley residents to come!
Kinley is a dancer coming to grips with her changing dreams……Jace is a local pediatrician……together they make music, mischief and mayhem! A fun fun read with loads of hanky panky going on 😉
Stephanie St. Klaire made me fall in love with Pine Valley all over again. We got to meet some new people as well as revisit some beloved characters from other stories. This is a stand alone novella, with the comfort of intertwining lives.
Ms St. Klaire has a winner on her hands. Loved it from the first word to the last!
absolutely love the small town setting and the shenanigans the residents get involved in all in the name of revenge
Kinley returns to her hometown after an accident ruins her career on broadway only to connect with Jace the single and hot pediatrician that all the women would like to get a piece of.
If you are wanting a quick read that will make you fall in love with the small town feeling and keep you laughing at the resident busy body than you need to buy this immediately!
Bed buddies was a super sweet deep story! Kinley and Jace’s story was my favorite because it really had real life problems with dreams and love issues. I love their no nonsense attitudes and the way they interact with each other. I love Cady’s meddling ways and how she works from the back end to get the cute young couples together. Another great book SSK!
I love love love Bed Buddies! I was so hooked on Dr. Jace from his appearance in DILF Diaries. I couldn’t put this book down. Totally love that he got his HEA, even if it wasn’t with me!
Kinley return to Pine Valley after a career ending injury. When she returns home, she meets Jace, the local pediatrician. Tho neither is looking for a partner, they hit it off and have a one night stand that turns into a hot and steamy fling! Unfortunately for them, they become the next victims of local gossip monger Evelyn! Great read!
