Author Mary Lee Painter Releases New Romantic Comedy - Wild in Minnesota

NEW YORK - June 18, 2025 - PRLog -- Wild in Minnesota Brings Laughs, Love, and a Whole Lot of Chaos to the Summer Reading Season

Melange Books/Satin Romance is pleased to announce the release of Wild in Minnesota by Mary Lee Painter, a whip-smart romantic comedy filled with mistaken identities, forbidden sparks, and the kind of wedding weekend you won't soon forget.

Fern never wanted to come back home—especially not as Maid of Honor in her cousin's over-the-top wedding. But one punchy late-night mix-up at a remote cabin introduces her to Gabe, a rough-around-the-edges NHL hockey player and her brother's teammate. What starts as a full-contact kitchen brawl turns into an unexpectedly steamy "weekend pass" agreement—one wild weekend, no strings attached.

But when bar fights, a high-speed chase, and a shocking overheard conversation turn up the heat, Fern bolts. Gabe's not ready to let her go, her brother is ready to blow a fuse, and the bride-to-be vanishes just before the wedding. Now Fern and Gabe are forced to team up for a search-and-rescue mission… while navigating feelings they never meant to catch.

Perfect for fans of laugh-out-loud rom-coms with heart, heat, and a touch of mayhem, Wild in Minnesota is a summer must-read that proves love can be messy, unpredictable, and wildly worth it.
