Mountain Man's Regret

2022

Romeo All EMTs save lives, but at Mercury Ridge Search and Rescue, we're trained to do it on the side of a mountain. We climb, rappel, jump out of helicopters, and kayak down raging rivers—whatever it takes. Nothing makes my pulse race. And I mean nothing. Except for Sierra Green. The five-foot-four, curvy redhead has a sassy mouth that I'd sell my soul to explore with my tongue. I've wanted her since middle school, and now that she's back in Mercury Ridge, it's time to stake my claim. Mountain Man's Regret is a sweet and steamy short romance with a curvy heroine, a sexy-as-sin mountain man, and a second chance to get things right. NO cheating, NO cliffhangers, and a satisfying HEA are guaranteed.

Mountain Man's Prize

2022

Holly For as long as I can remember, I’ve been in love with my best friend’s brother. And she has no idea. For that matter, neither does he. Not that it matters. He’ll always see me as that annoying kid who clung to his little sister like a shadow. Some dreams are just too farfetched, too childish. But others—like my burgeoning cupcake business—are within reach. It’s time to put on my big girl pants and move past my crush on Theo Jones. Once and for all. Theo Love at first sight isn’t real… Hell, I’ve never been sure I believed in love at all. But when I see her, time stands still. A beam of sunlight pours through an opening in the tree canopy, surrounding her like a spotlight. Her face is hidden by a cascade of blonde hair, shining like spun gold in the sunbeam. Even without seeing her face, I know without a doubt that I’m looking at the most beautiful woman in the world. I don’t just want her. It’s more than that. Somehow, I know, deep in my soul, that she’s it for me. I’ll never want anyone else. Then she turns, and I see her face. It’s a face I’ve seen thousands of times. But it feels like I’m seeing it—like I’m seeing her—for the first time in my life. Holly Patterson. My little sister’s best friend. I want to make her mine, to claim her, forever. Mountain Man's Prize is a short & steamy instalove romance with a curvy virgin heroine and a sexy-as-sin mountain man. NO cheating, NO cliffhangers, and a satisfying HEA are guaranteed.

Christmas Deal

2022

When I was seventeen, I made a marriage pact with William Jones. This Christmas, I’m coming to collect. As the owner of a lucrative graphic design firm, I have everything a girl could want. Except for a baby. If your biological clock starts to tick in your early thirties, by forty, it’s a death knell. I can practically hear the bells clanging in my head as my ovaries shrivel up and die. I’ve considered fostering or adopting. I’ve even visited fancy sperm banks. Places where you can choose a donor based on everything from his IQ to his body type, hair and eye color, spirit animal, and which Hogwarts house he’d be sorted in. Some even offer handwriting samples. Just punch in your selections and voilà! One green-eyed Gryffindor with lovely penmanship and an Ivy League education coming right up! It's not for me. Call me old-fashioned, but I want the baby and the father. Unfortunately, I’m running out of time, and Mr. Right is nowhere to be found. But I can’t stop thinking about a pact I made at seventeen. William Jones and I vowed that if we were still single at forty, we’d marry each other. I haven’t seen him in twenty years, but a few minutes of internet sleuthing was all it took to discover that he’s still single. And the man has aged like fine wine. I think maybe it’s time to return to Mercury Ridge. After all, a deal’s a deal. Christmas Deal is a steamy short instalove romance featuring a curvy heroine and a sexy-as-sin mountain man. It’s part of the Christmas Cookie Challenge series along with Christmas Secret by Hazel J. North and Christmas Bet by Emma Lynn Everly. All three books are guaranteed to spice up your holidays. NO cheating. NO cliffhangers. HEA guaranteed.
