I’m living my dream. Owning a cozy little bakery in downtown Snowflake Falls is everything I ever wanted. Even though the holidays are a hectic time of year, there’s nothing better than the feel of Christmas mixed with a bit of sugar.
When an unexpected visitor drops by to say hello, my entire world shifts on its axis. Burk Whitman was my best friend until, right before our first year of high school, he unexpectedly moved away. Now, he’s back in town and being around him isn’t exactly a hardship. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
The problem is, his time here is temporary and if I’m not careful, I risk losing my heart forever.
Burk
One phone call is all it takes for me to come back to Snowflake Falls. With my gramps in the hospital, a huge void is left at my family’s Christmas tree farm during their busiest time of year. Being here after fourteen years might be just what the doctor ordered.
When I hear my oldest friend, Joy Campbell, owns the bakery in town, I have to drop by to say hello. I’m ready to fall back into the familiar banter we once engaged in, but what I’m not expecting is to come face-to-face with the most beautiful woman in the world. Spending time with her isn’t a hardship, and soon, lines begin to blur.
How will I return to the East Coast when everything I didn’t realize I wanted is right where I left it in Snowflake Falls?
Snowflake Falls is and has always been home to Joy where she is surrounded by friends and family and owns the town bakery. She was happy with the life she created however when Burk, her childhood best friend, returns to town temporarily she realizes how much she missed him and that friendship is only part of what she feels for him.
Due to a rift in his family Burk and his father left town years earlier and lost contact with Joy. With his grandfather’s recent health issues he has returned temporarily to help out at the family tree farm however the chemistry and connection between he and Joy are stronger than ever and now he wonders if everything he has ever wanted is right in front of him?
This is a heartwarming holiday story set in a small touch that is sure to touch your heart. The feelings that Joy and Burk have for each other evolve from a wonderful friendship into a beautiful love that was always meant to be.

He paid the price for someone else’s mistake and lost the only thing that mattered.
Kingston
I’ve got the money, the mountain, and the silence I thought I wanted. I should be content. It’s more than I deserve. But no matter how I try to atone for my sins, I’m still an ex-con with too many secrets and too many regrets. Years ago, I walked away from everything: my name, my future, and the only woman I ever loved. I never wanted her to waste her life on a man like me. I thought I could stay hidden. I thought I could keep her safe. I thought the pain would fade. I was wrong.

The reclusive billionaire who brought my small mountain town back to life is the same man I’ve spent years trying to forget. But I haven’t forgotten. Time hasn’t touched the way he shattered what we had. I’m done letting him hide behind guilt and scars while pretending we never existed. There’s a reason he still looks at me like I’m the only thing that ever mattered. He made the choice to leave. Now I’m choosing to make him remember everything we had, no matter how much it hurts both of us.

Tate is a professional musician who enjoys everything that goes alone with being a celebrity. He and his bandmates find themselves trying to escape a storm when he meets Summer who is a waitress there. They spend a few steamy days together until he leaves to continue the band’s tour with no plans to see each other again.
Summer will do whatever is necessary to be there for her mother so anything beyond a few days with Tate doesn’t seem possible. She never expected to see him again however fate had other ideas when she realizes she is pregnant with his baby. Even though his first reaction wasn’t what she wanted would he prove to be the man and father that she and their child need?
I enjoyed seeing the relationship between Tate and Summer unfold as he shows her that she can count on him to be there for her while she realizes she is no longer alone as what was supposed to be a fling turns into forever.

We all have our guilty pleasures.
Gaetano Tempesta is mine.
Reckless. Unpredictable. Zero manners. Muscled sin in a cowboy hat.
And likely a killer.
After all, I’m no expert but I’ve seen enough movies to know the Mafia isn’t something you want to get cozy with.
Apparently the reach of the Costa Nostra is everywhere, even in small town Wyoming.
A smarter girl would have run the other way instead of getting closer.
Honestly, I didn’t move all the way out here for a hot cowboy with lethal skills.
I needed a change of scenery and I can’t help the fact that Getty’s brother is married to my best friend.
What started out between us as hate at first sight has escalated into a full blown prank war.
And the battle has escalated to the bedroom.
It’s a dangerous game and I’ve become addicted to playing.
Meanwhile, the Mafia isn’t the only threat in this town.
Finding myself in the wrong place at the wrong time turns deadly when I cross a murderous motorcycle club.
And the only one I can turn to for help is my Enemy/Lover.
However, Getty has his own ideas about how to pay him back after he rescues me.
The stakes couldn’t be higher when he gets on his knees.
Because apparently what he really wants…
IS A WIFE.

Blurb:
I don’t give a damn what people say about me. I’m successful and confident—one of San Diego’s youngest CEOs. But when my womanizer rep costs me a major business deal, I’ve got a problem.
One of my brothers suggests a fake girlfriend. Ridiculous.
Then I spot the perfect opportunity.
At a bar, I overhear a stunning blonde getting utterly humiliated by her ex—who casually informs her he dumped her to marry someone else. What an idiot.
She looks like she needs rescuing. So I sit at their table and kiss her like I’ve done it a million times. After the jerk bails, I make her a deal: be my fake date for one business dinner.
Phoebe agrees.
It should’ve been simple, but the dinner turns into a weekend at a beach house. One bedroom. Too much wine. One unforgettable night.
The next morning, she tries to pretend it didn’t happen.
Phoebe is nothing like the women I usually date. She’s hardworking, has a sharp sense of humor, and she’s the most selfless person I’ve met. That’s why I want more.
I just have to prove that there’s more to me than she thinks. I’m close to my family. I spoil my nephew. I’m ready to change.
Phoebe is still hurting and wants to play it safe. But I won’t give up. Because this fake relationship is starting to feel very real.
Shattered by the loss of his wife, Callum Reed is a man surrounded by rules designed to protect him. He has found the perfect submissive in Gaby Sullivan, until she breaks his cardinal rule.
After three years of perfect obedience, Gaby declares she wants love. Love isn’t in their contract, so Cal lets her go. But Gaby has a secret reason for leaving. When Cal discovers the truth, nothing will stop him from following her. On a secluded island paradise, Callum will do anything to prove he’s the perfect Master for his defiant, loving sub.
🎧Review🎧 After his wife passed away Cal closed himself off to love however from the moment that he met Gaby he couldn’t deny his feelings for her. For the last three years he has been happy with the relationship they share but when she wants more he isn’t willing to give it so she walks out of his life.
Gaby loves Cal with her whole heart, but she needs more and has come to the sad conclusion that he will never feel the same way. She makes the decision to leave, and it will be ten months before she sees him again which doesn’t end well. He is now determined to fight for a second chance but the events of what happened when they were apart continues to cast a shadow on their second chance.
This story packs an emotional punch that I wasn’t expecting. The love that Cal and Gaby have for each other is apparent, even if Cal hasn’t yet acknowledged it, and the strength and resilience of Gaby was inspiring. The audio performance of Sebastian York was fantastic as he brought out the heat, emotion and insecurities of both these characters.
What do you do when snowed in alone with an arrogant flirt?
Don’t walk in on him in the shower. Too late. I can’t look away, and Noah loves the attention. But it doesn’t mean anything…He’s the guy who never goes home alone, and I’m the shy book nerd whose idea of a good time is staying late at the library and binging on red licorice.
Noah thinks I’m so forgettable that he can’t remember my name, even though we share the same group of friends. So when the roads clear and our mutual friends finally turn up, including Eric—the sweet guy who wants to be more than friends—I’m determined to forget about water dripping off muscles and fists wrapped around…
But now Noah’s acting differently. Sitting close to me, touching me, calling me by my actual name…It’s almost like he’s jealous, but that’s ridiculous.
Except, I swear the bathroom door was unlocked before I walked in. Noah didn’t leave it open on purpose…or did he?
Contains MF, FF scenes, and an MMC who likes to watch. This is a short and steamy novella in Her Sweet Seduction Series. Each novella is stand-alone with new characters and spicy scenarios to enjoy anytime—but especially fun as a bedtime treat.

When she arrives, she expects to be alone and is surprised to find that Noah, the last person she wanted to spend time with would be there as well and that they would be stranded together.
Noah knows that due to the past Sophie believes she knows who he is but she couldn’t be more wrong. When they find themselves forced to spend time together the chemistry between them ignites but will they be able to work through the misunderstandings of the past?
I enjoyed seeing Sophie and Noah realize that the animosity between them was something very different and the chemistry between them was intense. Teddy Hamilton does a wonderful job of portraying the regret that Noah feels while Savannah Peachwood brings out the insecurities of Sophie and together they are fire.
