Second Chance with a Firefighter

2019

He left his heart in his hometown but will he get a second chance? Sadie Collins has spent more hours than she'd like to admit rehearsing what she'd say when she came face to face with her ex again. It is not, "I'm stuck." After the rescue, her day goes from bad to worse when her boss discovers a glaring error in a project that she was in charge of. Worse, the mistake is mortifying. Tripp Hawkins returns to Hawk Ridge Hollow after several years to find much is the same in his hometown: the quaint village, good friends, and the world-class ski resort owned by his family. Almost everything is the same except the girl he'd once called his sweetheart. Sadie plans to spend Valentine's Day alone. She has enough responsibility as it is. A romcom plus some chocolate sounds like the perfect date. Tripp wants nothing more than a second chance with the girl who stole his heart and he'll do anything to win her back. But it might be too late. Has she moved on? Or did she never let go? This is the first book in the Rich & Rugged, a Hawkins Brothers Clean Romance series. It's a sweet romance and has a HEA.

Wedding Day with a Rancher

2019

She has three rules for her fake marriage to the billionaire rancher who galloped into her life. He breaks every one of them. But he’s afraid she might just break his heart. Kayla Cartwright learned that being independent was safer than risking a relationship again. Her ex had left her at a dead end. She’d given up everything for him and when she found her way back, she moved to a new town, started over, and focused on the future. Dallen Hawkins is known for his wild ways on and off the ranch but he learned long ago to trust horses more than women. The Hawkins brothers have a reputation for being rich and rugged, but after a disagreement, they became estranged and he’s desperate to reunite the family. Neither wants to be in a relationship but a chance meeting at the same wedding prompts them to decide they too could say I do. For Kayla, it’s to get her family off her back and so she doesn’t have to answer no when asked if she’s dating, engaged, or married. Dallen, heir to the world-famous Hawk Ridge Hollow Ski Resort and global holdings, can move forward with updates to the ranch if he gets married—thanks to the stipulation in his father’s will. But can she tame the handsome, wealthy, and wild cowboy? Can he win her heart? Only if they don’t allow mistakes of their past to dictate the future. This is book 2 in Rich & Rugged, a Hawkins Brothers Romance series. It stands alone but reading in order does provide a deeper and more enriching experience. It’s a sweet, "clean & wholesome" romance with all the smooching but without mature content, swearing, violence, drinking, etc. and has a HEA.
