Chance Encounter

2022

A Second Chance Harbor Prequel It's been years since I last saw Ethan. I never imagined the muscular, tattooed man he'd grow up to be. But no matter how hot he was, I had to resist the temptation he presented. I needed to focus on making my boutique a success for my son and me. Any desire I felt for him quickly shifted to annoyance as he began targeting my shop. He claimed it was a cluttered eye sore driving customers away from his hardware store. I couldn’t understand why he was so bitter toward me. For the sake of our businesses, and my heart, could we find a way to get along, or would our rivalry turn into an all-out war?

Fighting Chance

2022

He was all business until he fell head over tool belt for the sexy, single mom. I’m not bitter that Savannah St. James rejected me in high school. It's her cluttered storefront I have a problem with. Still, it’s hard to stay mad at her when she’s more beautiful than I remember and her son keeps finding new ways to sneak over to my hardware store every chance he gets. While I admit he needs a male figure in his life, I’m the wrong guy for the job. Despite my reluctance, the little guy brings us together even as our pasts keep us apart. I’m falling deeper for this woman, and the more I get to know Savannah, the more I realize I may have misjudged her. Maybe we can get a second chance after all.

One More Chance

2022

Unlikely friends. An undeniable attraction. Telling everyone my best friend, Max, and I are dating was a panic move. But when my younger sister announced her engagement, I knew my parents were going to crank up the pressure cooker to see me settle down. We were polar opposites. A tattooed bar owner and a straight-laced math teacher. Who’d actually believe it? I knew he’d play along, though. The plan was simple. Fake date through all the wedding festivities, then stage a break-up. We were so close to pulling it off. That is, until the chemistry between us felt all too real. To save our friendship, I tried to ignore the magnetic pull. Every thought betrayed me. He made me happier than I ever dreamed possible. If only I knew he felt the same way.

Lucky Chance

2022

He's grumpy and I radiate sunshine. But I can't get him out of my head. Colton Castle and I are nothing alike. He's a gruff police officer who only seems to see the worst in people. I'm the free spirit who believes there's good in everyone. When there’s trouble in my neighborhood, he’s everywhere I turn, looking sexy in his uniform. I start to see a different side of him. He's protective and caring. And makes my heart race. There's a problem: he's my sister's ex, which means he's completely off limits. He seems just as determined as me to ignore the connection. Yet the back-and-forth banter between us feels a lot like foreplay, and I’ve become addicted to the rush. Except I want love and a family. Why am I drawn to someone who doesn't want the same thing?

Irresistible Chance

2025

I needed to find a way to this six-foot-something tall broad-shouldered police officer out of my system, or each time he came into my vet clinic with a stray animal, I’d be mush in his hands. He was literally irresistible.
