Thatโs the one thing Brace Cordova is convinced of when heโs released from a five year stretch in a military prison.
He figures the best he can do is spend the rest of his days as a freighter pilot and vicariously live out his dream of a Commonwealth Fleet career through his cousin, Commander Letessa Cordova.
His plans unravel when he’s accosted by gangsters, rescued by smugglers, and swept up in the search for an ancient Earth relic.
With a vengeful crime lord and a Commonwealth Fleet gunship both hot on his heels, Brace soon realizes he might not live long enough to ever get a taste of the quiet life.
The Cordova Vector is book one in The Brace Cordova Space Opera Series. It’s an action packed science fiction adventure filled with diverse alien races, ruthless criminals, dedicated soldiers, and millennia-old mysteries.
He lives by the clubโs code; sheโs bound to a man who isnโt him. When their forbidden love ignites, every stolen moment binds them together, until they discover secrets that twist their lives in a way they never expected. But some hearts collide despite the cost and fall anyway. After all, allโs fair in love and sin.
Rafe Montero keeps his world quiet, controlled, and carefully structured.
As a wounded veteran turned demanding boss, the last thing he wants is a distraction, especially in the form of the bright, chaotic energy of his new employee. Beneath her playful confidence, though, is a woman determined to prove herself โ even if her brooding boss keeps pushing her away.
Seraphina is everything Rafe isnโt. Sheโs outgoing where heโs guarded, spontaneous where heโs rigid, and impossible to ignore.
The more they clash in the workplace, the more undeniable the tension becomes. When late nights at the office turn into stolen moments and guarded confessions, Rafe realizes Seraphina might be the one person capable of breaking through the walls he built.
My Wounded Boss is an instalove romance featuring a possessive alpha hero, sizzling chemistry, a fiery heroine, a broody hero, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
Rafeโs military past has left both emotional and physical scars which doesnโt allow him to let anyone close. The only problem is that all his attempts to distance himself from Seraphina donโt seem to matter as he canโt stop thinking about the woman who always seems to find a way to brighten his day.
Seraphina isnโt deterred by her grouchy boss and rather than backing away she challenges him at every turn. When he finally gives into the feelings between them she isnโt about to let anything come between them not even the turmoil from his past.
Heat and heart combine as Seraphina is exactly who Rafe needs in his life as she helps him heal from the past and shows him that he is worthy of a happy future with her.
Two rivals. One small-town summer. And a heat wave no one saw coming.
Mason Grant is driving me crazy. The grumpy, gorgeous bar owner thinks my waterfront shop belongs to his family. I think he needs to mind his own business.
It all started the moment I arrived in Orchard Cove. I came here for a chance to save my smoothie business. A chance to heal.What I didnโt come here for was to start a war with the town hottie.
ExceptโฆMason is impossible to ignore. And every heated argument just leaves me wanting more. The more time I spend battling him, the harder it is to deny our chemistry. And I know he feels it too. Suddenly, a summer fling seems like a very temptingโbut badโidea.
The problem? Iโm still healing. And Mason is grieving. Neither of us is ready to let someone in through the cracks in our hearts. Besides, I never planned to stay in this town forever.
But despite my war with Mason, Orchard Cove is starting to feel like home. And maybeโjust maybeโMason Grant is so much more than my enemy.

๐Review๐ When Sierraโs personal and business lives take a detour she heads to Orchard Cove looking for a reset while deciding what comes next. One of the residents has arranged to rent her space to open her smoothie business however it doesnโt get off to the best start when her inability to contact them leads her to the pub where she meets Mason.
Mason is going through a difficult time both when it comes to romance and his family. He believes that Sierra is only looking for a good time not that they will be vying for the same building. This is a fight he is determined to win because of what it means to those he loved most however that is at war with the intense feelings he is developing for Sierra.
Both Sierra and Mason are going through a challenging time in their lives and both believe the building holds the key to helping them heal. They soon realize that instead of the building it is each other as they take us a journey filled with setbacks, emotion and a romance that neither saw coming.
My best friend is settled. He met the love of his life and was granted guardianship of his younger siblings. Iโve had the goal to help him for what seems like forever, and now that things are good for him, I should feel complete, right?
But thereโs always been a piece missing for me. Has been for a long time.
Something I donโt think I can ever fix.
And then suddenly, that part of my past shows back up in my life. He should hate me. I hate me. But thatโs the thing about Remy . . .
Heโs far too good for this world, and Iโm once again terrified Iโll break him.
Because thatโs what I do.
Remy
I want to forget about my past. Itโs my lifeโs goal.
Iโm not that weak little boy trapped in foster care anymore. Iโm stronger now. Iโm the principal at a major school in the Kansas City area. Iโve grown into the man I knew I could be.
I donโt talk about the past. I refuse to.
But then itโs shoved into my face, and I canโt look away. I canโt walk away like he did all those years ago.
Sometimes I despise this stubborn streak inside me. I should stay away. He has.
But thereโs this pull thereโeven after all these years.
I can put on a show for everyone else, but when heโs around, I start to crack.
Losing everything was supposed to be the end. It might be the beginning.
I built my life on moving onโnew places, new projects, new causes. Make an impact, then keep going. It workedโฆ until a scandal I never saw coming destroyed my reputationโand a house fire took everything else.
Now Iโm stranded in a small mountain town with nothing but borrowed clothes and a growing list of problems.
And a firefighter next door who refuses to let me fall apart quietly.
Colter Gibson is everything Iโm notโsteady, grounded, rooted. A single dad with a protective streak a mile wide and a habit of showing up when it matters most.
Letting him help is supposed to be temporary. So is staying in Gibson Hollow. So is the undeniable spark igniting between us.
But the longer Iโm here, the more I find something Iโve never had beforeโa chance to see the impact of my work up closeโฆ and a place that feels like home.
Then the life I lost comes callingโwith a chance to take it all back.
And I have to decideโฆ
Do I go back to who I wasโ or risk my heart on the one manโand the one townโthat make me want to stay?
When Swayzeโs professional life implodes in spectacular fashion she makes a life changing decision when she decides to travel to Gibson Hollow where no one will know who she is or what she been through. This will allow her to distance herself from the situation and to help others however a fire in her accommodation throws a wrench into that plan.
Colton is not only a single father but the firefighter who was there for Swayze when her life incinerated for the second time. Not only does he rescue her but offers her a place to stay and the way that she is embraced by him, his daughter, his family and the town give her the safe grounding that she so desperately needs.
This is such a touching story that has both fun and emotional moments as Colton shows Swayze she is not alone and the romance between them is sure to touch your heart.

I’ve spent my life proving to my grandpa and dad that I’m more than just the Lewis family mistake. So when Grandpa sends me to Devon Falls, VT to take some ridiculous leaf festival to court, I head straight there and get to work.
But Dr. Jack Lancer keeps getting in my way.
He’s everywhere. Helping me out with my migraines, making me dinner, insisting people be nice to me even though Iโm the enemy. Who is this guy? The next thing I know I’m pretending to be Jack’s boyfriend to get him out of a bind. I swear he’s putting kindness pills in my food or something.
Jack thinks he can fix me the same way he fixes everyone else. But I’m not broken. This podunk town will be when I’m done with it, though. And Jack? Well, he’s about to learn the meaning of the term “collateral damage.” Because I’ll do anything to win this case and end this festival.
Even if it means losing something that feels an awful lot like love.

Pretending to be fake engaged to my enemy might not be my brightest idea.
But it is definitely necessary.
On the brink of the biggest car show of my career, I start to panic because itโs the first time I have to see my ex since our break-up.
Spoiler alert: it wasnโt clean or amicable.
Then when Elliot Thorneโs ex-fiancรฉ shows back up in town, I devise a plan for both of us to get what we want: a buffer from our exes with a dash of revenge.
The problem is Elliot takes his role to protect me too seriously.
He brings me food while Iโm working to make sure I eat. He even silences the self-doubt I feel on a day-to-day basis.
And before I know it, he has me on my knees in my garage, and on my back on the hood of my car.
The hate Iโve harbored toward him melts away as fast as my panties, and I soon realize we have more in common than I thought.
Then he tells me a secret that makes me reevaluate our entire relationship.
Now Iโm left to consider if something fake could be realโฆ
And that maybe itโs about time I admit that Elliot isnโt my enemy after all.
My life is pretty perfectโon paper. I had a string of platinum albums and number one songs all before I hit my twenty-fourth birthday. Iโve got fame and more money than Iโll ever be able to spend. What they say about fame is true: it’s lonely up here at the top. The clichรฉs I sing about are true too: all I want is someone who sees the real me and loves me despite all the drama. Then I meet a guy who seems to step right out of my fantasiesโgrumpy, husky single-dad cowboyโbut he wonโt even give me the time of day.

Everything I do, I do for my kid, but Jess makes me want something for myself. Can I risk another woman breaking our hearts?
