Love in Stone

2014

Clare Clover is super smart, but she’s not a people person. At 27, she’s never even had a boyfriend. That’s why she works with fossils. She doesn’t have to worry about saying the wrong thing to a bunch of bones. When she gets chosen to lead an exciting excavation, Clare thinks she’ll finally be able to make a name for herself. What else is there to do besides dig in Middle-of-Nowhere, Montana? Then she meets Ben Merano, a handsome geologist who gives her an education her three college degrees couldn’t come close to. Ben Merano loves his isolated, drama-free existence with no responsibilities. Traveling, hanging out with the guys, being outdoors—what’s not to like? Then Clare, a paleontologist with killer legs and zero social skills, shows up at his camp. Ben feels an instant connection to the reserved girl from the big city. That he had a vision of her a few weeks before they met is only part of her appeal. Ben starts to believe he wouldn’t have seen Clare coming if she wasn’t meant to be his. The problem is he’ll have to convince this student of science there’s such a thing as destiny. Clare’s brain tells her a relationship with Ben would never work, even if he can sing like Paul McCartney and kiss like Casanova. After all, Ben’s a wanderer and she’s got the job of her dreams back in New York. Will Clare’s logic, and lack of experience with love, get in the way of what they both want—or will she allow herself to find Love in Stone?

Touched by Love

2020

One night, everything they want. When you lose your parents and get surprised with the psychic "gift" of learning an object's history through touch, you start to wish life were simpler. Predictable. Nora's senior year of college is anything but. As she struggles to get used to a new place, a meddling grandmother, and a boss who wants her to move on, she also finds herself getting too close to Liam Walker, the gorgeous professor who blew onto campus like a tempest. Liam had to get out of LA fast. That's how he ended up teaching in Tacoma, Washington - the land of rain and recycling. He just wants to rebuild his life, realize a childhood dream of a Leonardo da Vinci exhibition, and ignore how drawn he is to the student in the back row of his Renaissance Art class. Every look, every touch, every conversation tells Liam that Nora Merano is everything he's ever wanted when he shouldn't want anything at all. The attraction between them can't be denied. They make a deal: one night, everything they want. The night turns out to be too much and not enough. Liam is too unpredictable for the quiet life Nora craves. Nora doesn't fight for anything, including what Liam feels between them. Will Nora and Liam stay firmly on their separate paths or will they allow themselves to be Touched by Love? Note: This steamy contemporary romance (with a hint of historical!) can be read as a standalone in the Her Hands series and offers a guaranteed happily ever after.
