Fooling Around with Ford

2021

Merry freaking Christmas to me. Virginia I was set up. Tricked. Manipulated. The life and career I’d worked so hard to build crumbled around me, so I abandoned it and moved in with my parents. Shady Springs Retirement Community in Sweet Pea, Florida was the perfect place to hide out, even if I was stuck sleeping on the couch. Then along came Ford Birmingham, a jerk who ran over my things with his lawnmower, destroying them and blaming me for the whole thing. As frustrating as he was charming, it didn’t take long for me to soften toward him…but I knew it was a dead end. His life was here, but mine wasn’t. I would be leaving as soon as I found a new job in a new town where I could rebuild my shattered world. Ford I’d mowed the grass at Shady Springs for twenty years and never met a resident as intriguing as the beautiful and feisty Virginia Jones. Of course, everyone else who lived there was at least twenty years my senior, so… When I accidentally shredded her e-reader, sunglasses, and towel one bright and sunny December afternoon—starting a feud I was definitely all-in for—I couldn’t stop thinking about her. I knew I’d eventually win her over, but to what end? She would leave Sweet Pea, and me, eventually. But sometimes, the reward was worth the risk. Fooling Around with Ford is the first book in the Sweet Pea Flings series of interconnected standalone novels. A sweet & steamy romance, this book has all the spice with a guaranteed HEA.

Sneaking Around with Slade

2021

When life gives you a second chance, you should grab on tight and refuse to let go. Right? Saylor I knew I’d never love a man the way I loved Slade Pearson. But it wasn't meant to be. He was my big brother’s best friend, nine years older than me, and completely off-limits. It wasn’t until six years ago that every one of my dreams came true…before they were dashed to bits by Slade’s guilt and regret. Then, out of nowhere, he was back in Sweet Pea…living in the apartment next door. And we had to learn to be friends again if we were going to keep our families—my brother, especially—from finding out what happened between us all those years ago. Slade I’d known Saylor Birmingham since the day she was born. She was like a kid sister to me for two decades…until she wasn’t. The day I saw her as a woman was the day she first kissed me. A day that was seared into my brain forever. I’d given myself one week with her, a secret we swore to keep to our graves. Now, she was back in my life, and the walls I thought I’d fortified around my heart were crumbling, fast. I told myself we could be friends again. That we could forget the fire between us. But I was wrong, and now we were sliding down a slippery slope of secrets, lies, and deception…and I knew the landing was going to hurt like hell. Sneaking Around with Slade is the second book in the Sweet Pea Flings series of interconnected standalone novels. A sweet & steamy romance, this book has all the spice with a guaranteed HEA.

Keira I never wanted to be in a relationship…until I did. But when I asked my casual booty call to be my date for my best friend’s wedding, he dumped me for another woman. What’s a lonely, heartbroken woman to do? Kiss a stranger at midnight on New Year’s Eve, of course! When my ex saw me kissing the handsome Brodie, I could tell he was jealous, which got me thinking… Could seeing me with another man bring him crawling back? Brodie My career couldn’t take another scandal. And while being photographed kissing a beautiful blonde wouldn’t be a scandal for most people, it was for Broderick Bennet—a Hollywood heartthrob who cheated on his longtime girlfriend with a stripper. That wasn’t how it went down, at all, but people will believe anything they read…including the director of the film I was dying to star in. There was only one way out of this mess. I had to convince Keira McCain to pretend to be my girlfriend and fool the world—and the director—into thinking we were happy and in love. I’d get the role of a lifetime and afterward, we’d quietly break up with no one being the wiser. It was the perfect plan. What could possibly go wrong? Breaking Them Up with Brodie is the third book in the Sweet Pea Flings series of interconnected standalone novels. A sweet & steamy romance, this book has all the spice with a guaranteed HEA.
