Book Boyfriend
2016
Michelle Mitchell isn’t the kind of girl you’d expect the most popular guy on campus to like. She has blue hair and favors ripped jeans to mini-skirts and Doc Martens to heels. Of course, Sebastian Winters isn’t the type of guy you’d expect her to go for, either. Her taste tends to run more “bass player” than “baseball player.”
But things are about to get very unexpected...when an intelligent, artistic, outspoken alt girl meets a sweet, sexy, southern charmer, watch the sparks fly!

Embracing Reckless
2019
"I've had his address and phone number all this time. I kept track of him.”
Those were the words my mother had said as she handed me the piece of paper that would change my life forever. The one that held my father’s name and address—the same father I’d always been told had died when I was a baby.
Even though my entire life until now, I’ve survived by being tightly-focused and in control, as soon as I learned my father was alive, I made a snap decision. I knew there was only one thing I could do: climb in the car and drive to meet him. The world’s most high-stakes road trip!
What I didn’t know at the time was that things wouldn’t go as planned. My car would break down. Then, the sexiest man I’d ever seen would pull his motorcycle over to rescue me, and I’d be captivated by his eyes and his shoulders, by his strength and calm capability...and that’s when the real adventure would begin.
I’ve survived up until now by insisting on stability, but surviving's not enough for me anymore. With everything on the line, can I learn to truly live by Embracing Reckless?
Stand-alone Someday series romance, complete with HEA—and plenty of heat and heart along the way!

Meet Cute
2019
Evelyn
I’d heard people talking about the smoking hot guy that opened up a tattoo parlor just off the plaza, so even before I met Nick, I knew he was sexy as hell.
What I didn’t know about him was that he was also sweet, kind, and funny. Or that he had a daughter I would adore from the second I met her. Or that when I was with them, I would truly know what it felt like to be home. But is there any way that Nick could return my feelings? Could this ever really be my new family—my new home?
Nick
Ever since my wife died two years ago, I’d been in a tailspin. It was all I could do to keep going day after day, making a good life for my daughter Olive. The only problem was, I was drifting through life like a zombie—and so was my little girl.
All of that changed when we met Evelyn. It was like she was magic, bringing both of us back to life for the first time in years. Because of her, there was finally a light at the end of a long tunnel. But is what I feel enough to risk the stability I’ve fought so hard for?
