hi there!

Welcome to my website. I'm J. F. Russell, a self published author of authentic and heartfelt romances with small towns, dusty utes and animal sidekicks who may or may not be inspired by my own pets.

upcoming release

In the second book of the Gumtree Valley series, a cowboy and veterinarian play the part of a fake relationship whilst overcoming their less than ideal past and learning that love doesn't require perfection.

out now

In this small town romance set in rural Australia, a bookstore owner must choose between the bull rider who broke her heart seven years ago, or the cowboy who can give her everything she lost.

where to buy my books

All of my books are availiable from Amazon either in digital or paperback. I'm also so fortunate to have a contiously growing lists of stockists supporting my dreams as an author. OR, you can purchase a book through my store and I'll personally send you a signed copy! 

want to meet me?

Like a lot of authors, I prefer to be a recluse in reality whilst imagining up a world of fiction, but sometimes I fight to overcome my anxiety and meet the readers who mean so much to me.

let's talk (virtually)

I'm a lot more professional when I can take time to think through what I want to say rather than word vomiting and humiliating myself in person.
