She’s no Cinderella and she doesn’t get the prince.

With one last push to make her dreams come true, Jo moves to the idyllic PNW island town of Perry Harbor to start her personal chef business. With money tight, she reluctantly takes on a local tech-bro jerk as a client. But when Lucas doesn’t act like the tech-bros she’s used to, she can’t hold back her attraction to his sinfully sexy dimples, not to mention the rest of him. 

After his lucrative tech career became collateral damage in an IP infringement case, Lucas is home temporarily, helping his brother take over the family tulip farm.

As the IP case takes an unexpected turn, Lucas and Jo are forced to decide. Risk it all holding on to a dream neither of them imagined, or simply let it go. Can Lucas convince Jo that what they have is real, or will he lose her and all her sweetness forever?

Beauty, Remodel, Love
Camano Island State Park is a publicly owned park in Camano Island

People say beauty is perfect symmetry, but beauty isn’t everything.

Drew McAlister was the only boy to ever see her instead of just her perfect, symmetrical face. He was her first love, her only love, but it was all a lie. Alone was the safest place for her heart now.

Tess Bakker didn’t care about his money or his damaged face. She gave her beautiful heart and body to him years ago and in a flash of young stupidity, he hurt her. She would never forgive him. He had to stop doing things for her.

When Tess and Drew inherit the rustic seaside resort they both love and have to spend a year together on a tiny island in the San Juans on Washington’s northwest coast in order to protect it, they’ll get through the year keeping their distance. Easy.

But when everything they both love is threatened, they’ll have to face the lies and the truths of the past, risking their whole hearts, or lose their one shot at forever with the only real love either of them have ever known.

A second chance, forced proximity, hero with a beard romance set at a rustic resort on the PNW coast. It’s about the definition of beauty, the power of purpose, and the timelessness of real love.

Your TURN
Strength, Perfection, Journey

Sex is a gift. A beautiful, wonderful, complicated, desperate gift.

Rhys Gunnerson was fine, despite all the effing weddings on his calendar. His bar was in the black, the crowd liked his guitar playing, and he had sex when he wanted it. Easy. And he’d fully recovered from his divorce … almost.

Nicole Freeman was fine, or at least she will be once she buys a house. She had friends, a good job, a mean roundhouse kick, and almost enough money to buy a home where no one could ask her to leave.

The hot guy at the kickboxing gym is a distraction, a fantasy. But when his protective instincts kick in and she moves above his bar, the fantasy starts to become reality. Attraction and slow burn burst into flames, but something’s wrong. When doubts and fears threaten to hold them back, can they find a way to have their turn at the happiness everyone deserves?

A friends to lovers, survivor, protector hero, steamy romance about not just surviving, but thriving, and the journey to accept ourselves and allow the unstoppable power of real love to heal us.

Trigger Warning: Nicole was raised in a culture of sexual shame. Though there are no flashbacks, her memories and struggle to overcome the trauma she experienced in that environment are included on the page.
