Run Into Love

Run Into Love · Book 1

A burned-out PR executive and a widowed track coach collide in a lakeside town where running becomes a lifeline—and love is the finish line neither of them saw coming.

“Running isn’t about who you used to be. It’s about whether you’re willing to meet yourself at mile one and still show up at mile ten.”

About

About Jonah Diedrick

Jonah Diedrick writes fiction about people in motion—literally and emotionally. His stories sit at the intersection of commercial and heartfelt: grounded in real-world details, emotionally immersive, and just slightly obsessed with the question of what happens after the “big moment.”

His work includes the Run Into Love series (hopeful, running-infused romance), the Fabulous Enough series (influencer-era dramedy about failure and friendship), the Diplomatic Affair series (international romance with political intrigue), and the Statecraft series (techno-thrillers about power, data, and the people caught in between).

Across genres and settings, the throughline is the same: characters who choose to keep showing up for each other, even when it would be easier to ghost.
