Comfort Club Books in Order

Comfort Club is a contemporary romance and women's-fiction setup written by Kari Lee Harmon, the pen name of Kari Lee Townsend. Its foundation is simple: when a carefully planned life falls apart, friendship can become the place where someone starts over.

The first story is Sleeping in the Middle.

Zoe Robinson is a mother of four whose husband has left the marriage. She has spent two years focused on surviving, raising her children, and building her party-planning business. Romance is not part of her recovery plan. In fact, Zoe likes the safety of sleeping in the middle of the bed, with no one else making demands or disrupting the order she has worked hard to restore.

Her friends in the Comfort Club have other ideas. The group is built around women supporting one another through disappointment, confusion, and the often funny realities of moving forward. They are not there to tell Zoe that everything is easy. They are there to keep her from facing it alone.

Zoe's professional life is under pressure, too. A ruthless competitor threatens her business, and a strange phone-sex flyer campaign creates problems that may involve her rebellious daughter. Then Chaz Anderson, a charming doctor, offers help that Zoe is not ready to accept. Her instinct is to keep control. The story asks what happens when control begins to look more like isolation.

This is a relationship-centered romantic comedy with family complications, work stress, friendship, and a divorced woman learning that a fresh start does not have to erase who she was before. The humor comes from messy life rather than from pretending that divorce and parenting are simple.

Zoe is trying to choose a new direction without losing herself.

Begin with Sleeping in the Middle. It introduces the Comfort Club idea and gives readers a full story about rebuilding confidence, opening up to friendship, and deciding whether love can fit into a life that already feels very full.
