Hope Under Mistletoe

2015

A rowdy bar owner. A widowed pastor’s wife. And Christmas hope that brings them together. After widower Eden Snow’s church almost burns to the ground, she’s compelled to find a temporary place to hold services and Christmas cantata practices. Has-been hockey player, Knox Everhart, has a reputation for being fast on the ice and with women. Except Eden. She’s always been a fascinating mystery to him, which is why he agrees to let her use the back room of his bar—with one rule: No converting his customers. But when Eden brings the church to the bar, it offers something the bottle can’t. Hope. And he finds himself falling in love with a woman and a Savior he feels unworthy to pursue.

Just the Way You Are

2015

When Pastor Gabe asks Audrey Gilbraith to use her mad florist skills to help him design a prayer garden, she’s all in, especially since it helps take her mind off the fact she’s about to lose her job and her apartment. But working closely with Gabe without falling for him is complicated. She’s not pastor’s wife material, and she has the past to prove it. Gabriel Brookson wants out of Audrey’s friend-zone, but when he pursues her romantically, he ruffles more than a few feathers in his congregation. How much is he willing to give up for this wonderful, quirky woman, and will Audrey accept him if he risks it all?

More Than Words

2015

Interior designer Cassie James is building her business and saving up for her dream home. Taking a part-time side job with new-in-town Jax Woodall seems like a good idea to make extra money. Turns out he needs a lot more than office assistance, and Cassie has the expertise to come to his rescue. What's not such a good idea? Falling for the surly southerner whose broken past is a little too close to her own. Carpenter Jax Woodall failed at marriage and faith, but he's determined to succeed as a father. He moves to Mistletoe to be closer to his eight-year-old daughter. But he needs help turning his house into a real home. Enter, Cassie James. She not only talks her way into a job...but eventually into his hard-as-nails heart. If only he could drill out the voices of his past, reminding him love isn't always enough. She's talkative, with nearly as many scars as she has words. He's quiet and convinced he's already had his chance at love. But together they learn love and faith are more than words...and just might be worth fighting for.

It's Always Been You

2015

Successful bistro owner and worship leader, Sierra Bradley appears to have it all together, but inside she’s a hot mess. Often dictated by fear, Sierra regrets not eloping with high school sweetheart, Ezra Alcott. Now he’s returned to Mistletoe to sketch behind-the-scenes portraits for his sister’s wedding and Sierra has agreed to cater the event. With no escape from crossing paths, she has to deal with the heartache of what might have been. Ezra Alcott left for France to make his mark on the art world and nurse the pain of rejection. But somewhere along the way he lost sight of the kind of man he wanted to become. Back in his sleepy hometown, he realizes God might be giving him a blank canvas to start over. If Ezra can find the strength to ask for a second chance, and Sierra can trust God with the things she can’t see, they might be able to paint a lifetime together.
