Denise M. Colby loves history and constantly finds herself contemplating how it was to live in the 1800’s.

Book Cover Reveal for No Plan At All

I’m so excited to share the book cover for Sarah and Alex’s story, No Plan At All. No Plan At All is the Prequel Novella in the Best-laid Plans series and releases November 4, 2025.

Set in 1867, two years before When Plans Go Awry.

Alex left Scotland and a noble title behind…Sarah left behind the only home she’d ever known. Neither expected to find love on the road.

A Pre-order link will be availabl
