I need a husband. Jensen needs a business makeover. A marriage of convenience should solve both our problems.
Moving back to Coal Haven should have been simple—start my tutoring business, settle into the historic house my grandmother left me, and move on from my past. But there’s a catch: I can’t claim the house unless I’m married.
Jensen Hollis. My childhood rival. The guy I spent years trying to outdo. The one who married our mutual friend while I watched from the sidelines. Now he’s divorced, a single dad, and—somehow—my only option.
It’s a perfect arrangement. A temporary marriage. One year with no feelings involved. At least, that was the plan… until playing house starts to feel a little too real.

Nate Driving the streets at night, I never expected to find Harper in need of dry clothes and a place to stay. I should have taken her to the local shelter or put her up in a motel for the night. I should not have taken her back to my house, but I did. I shouldn’t have touched her, but I did. Now there is no going back, I will risk it all to keep her. Harper When I heard my dad’s plans for me, I made the split-second decision to run. I had nothing more than what I could fit in my backpack. Living on the streets, hiding from my dad, is no fun, and when I see that cop car pull up, I think it’s all over. I wasn’t expecting Nate to give me a place to sleep and some warm food, or the way he warmed my body in more ways than one. But my dad won’t give up, and now Nate is in his crosshairs too.

Esme The last thing I expect to find on my small Texas ranch is a Hollywood heartthrob. Add in a mishap with a cactus, some very silly pants and tabloid picture that puts me in a very compromising position. Now I’ve gone from complete obscurity to being the fake girlfriend of Abel Cartwright. The good news is my new notoriety has made my Cactus Girl brand of gourmet foods a household name. The bad news is I’m not so sure my heart is strong enough to withstand a man like Abel.
Abel I came to this tiny Texas town to escape the noise of Hollywood. And to repair things with my twin brother.Instead, I got rescued by a feisty ranch girl with a ridiculous hat and a wicked smile. Esme Morales is the most genuine person I’ve ever met—and the one thing I can’t risk corrupting. But every time she laughs, every time she looks at me like I’m not Abel the Movie Star… I’m one step closer to giving her my heart. Even if it costs me everything.

❤️Review To make attempts to his brother’s fiancé Abel finds himself on Esme’s ranch when he finds himself covered in prickles. When Esme comes to his rescue he is drawn to her and wants to protect her from the media frenzy that ensues when they are caught in what appears to be a private moment.
Esme is determined to ensure her family’s ranch remains viable. The last thing she thinks she needs is the attention of a famous actor even if he is the one person truly sees and appreciates the woman that she is.
Even though Esme and Abel appear to be complete opposites the feelings between them couldn’t be more real. He shows her that she is perfect just the way she is and isn’t about to let anyone or anything come between them.
When I find out I could lose my bookstore, I make a deal with the devil to save it, not realizing I would end up in bed with the last person I ever thought I’d be hot and sweaty with…
Fletcher St. James
Even at twenty-four, he’s a spoiled brat. He believes the whole world owes him something, and he really needs to be put in his place.
When his wealthy, power-hunger father propositions me with something I desperately need in exchange for teaching his son a little responsibility, it’s an offer I can’t refuse.
After all, there’s nothing I enjoy more than humbling an arrogant man and bringing him to his knees.
This should be a piece of cake.
But one thing I didn’t expect was how much Fletcher would enjoy it… Or how much that would turn me on. The tension quickly boils over, and before I know it, we’re giving in to our illicit desires, consequences be damned.
I crave the feeling of his body against mine, and the needy sounds he makes right before he begs.
But more than that, I can’t get enough of the little things, like the way the golden sun looks reflecting off his green eyes in the morning, or how beautiful his vulnerability is.
And when his touch becomes my safe space, bringing out a softer side of me I’ve kept locked away for too long, it’s impossible to remember why this is wrong.
When the secrets come out about the lascivious things we indulge in behind closed doors, will it be worth it, or will this deal end up costing me everything?

The very reason I can’t loathe the Rebels MC fully
Because Stella is their new prospect
If that isn’t bad enough, the MC hates me
And the feeling is mutual
But then there’s the raven haired beauty
I know I should stay away
But our fates are intertwined
And when our pasts collide
It all changes in the blink of an eye
Everything could be stripped away
But I know in my heart that whatever happens
I will always choose her
Stella is mine
The men of the NOLA Rebels MC will do anything for their club. They’re a brotherhood, a club who stands mighty, and above all else, they take care of business, New Orleans style.
The bikers may rule this city, but the women of the club have their hearts, and the men will do anything to protect what’s theirs.
It is part of a series, but can be read stand-alone with a HEA. This book is recommended for mature readers.
🏍️Review🏍️ The biggest obstacle standing in the way of Stella becoming a member of the MC is the fact that she is female. She is determined to become a prospect anyway and now she faces a bigger challenge which are the strong feelings she has for Cale, who always seems to find himself on the opposite side of the MC.
Cale is a member of law enforcement which makes him a foe of the MC rather than a friend. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t have feelings for Stella so finding out she is about to become a prospect only makes a relationship between them that much more forbidden and undeniable.
Action, surprises and a love that can’t be denied. Stella is feisty and determined to go after what she wants which and Cale proves that she can count on him when it it really matters.

I never expected to see Willow Anson again—not after the way she left.
No warning. No goodbye. No explanation.
She was the girl who got under my skin.
The one who kissed me like she meant it… and disappeared like none of it mattered. I’ve spent every day since convincing myself it didn’t.
Now she’s back in Rixton, staying at her family’s lodge while her dad recovers from surgery. And thanks to our parents’ surprise wedding, we’re stuck under the same roof.
She’s off-limits. My new stepsister. But the way she looks at me says she remembers everything.
And the tension between us? It’s anything but frozen.
I’ve trained my whole life to handle pressure—on and off the ice. The last thing I need is a distraction in the middle of a season that’s already falling apart.
Games are being thrown. Players are faking injuries. And Willow’s holding on to the photos that could expose everything.
They’re watching. Threatening. Waiting for us to slip.
🏒Review🏒 Willow wants to be there for her father while he recovers from surgery however the one complication that she hadn’t factored in was that her new stepbrother is the same man she spent one unforgettable night with and hasn’t had any contact with since.
Kade hasn’t forgotten Willow and the night they spent together especially when the aftermath felt unresolved. Her unexpected appearance in his life has him facing not only the unresolved feelings between them but also the challenges he is facing professionally.
This was a great introduction to a new series that allows us to not only spend time with Willow and Kade but with other members of the team as well. Intrigue, romance and humor all combine and leave us wanting more stories set around this team.
Not when I became the acting mayor of my hometown after the flood. Not when I kept my law practice afloat out of a booth in my grandmother’s diner. And definitely not when my secret romantasy novels went viral.
Nobody in Gibson Hollow knows I’m the author behind the pen name. And nobody was supposed to kiss me at that book convention—least of all my brother’s best friend, cosplaying the hero he doesn’t know I modeled after him.
Now Ramsey Shaw is back in town. Volunteering. Smiling at me like I’m not on the verge of shattering. Like he remembers the kiss. Like he sees the truth.
I’ve spent my whole life being strong. Quiet. In control. But for the first time, I don’t want to be any of those things. I just want to be his.
In a town held together by hope and heart, it’s the people who show up that make it shine.
Alia has always been there for everyone she cares about so when after a devastating event her father isn’t about to help the town she doesn’t hesitate to do what she can. Trying to balance the needs of the town, the family and her secret career is only becoming more difficult.
Ramsey is a professional football player who is not only best friends with Alia’s brother but has had feelings for Alia for over a decade. When he is decides to spend his time off in their hometown he soon realizes everything that Alia is trying to balance and wants to show her that she is no longer alone.
This is a heartwarming story about love, family and healing. Ramsey and Alia have always belonged together and seeing Ramsey be there for Alia when she needed something the most is sure to touch your heart.
