Starting over is harder than it seems.
Nancy has tried for years to escape her terrible marriage, and now it’s officially over.
Why does she feel more lost than happy?
Nancy Williams is trying to not only rebuild her own life but save her business, which fell by the wayside while she was sorting out her life.
As a last-ditch effort, she posts a message on social media and prays for a Christmas miracle. Perhaps she should have been a tad more specific. Nancy didn’t expect her miracle to have a charming southern accent and an affinity for Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Having survived a rough childhood and lost the love of his life when he was just a young man, Rex Hudson believes in giving back. When he sees Nancy’s destroyed craft shop, he’s one of the first to step up and help. Little did he know a little good karma could set him on the long road to love.
If you believe it’s never too late to have a second chance at love, you’ll love this sweet contemporary romance novella.
12 Ornaments, 12 Days... Who’s Behind the Christmas Mystery?
Vivian thought she’d lost all her Christmas spirit. After the worst year of her life, marked by the heartbreaking loss of her husband, all she wants is to spend the holidays alone with her grief. But her daughter and grandson have other plans. Along with a few well-meaning neighbors—and the help of a lovable, trouble-making dog named Neville—they’re determined to bring the joy of Christmas back into Vivian’s heart.
Then, something magical happens. One day a mysterious ornament appears on the pear tree outside her window —and others follow for each of the 12 days leading up to Christmas, a tradition started by her late husband. But who’s behind this thoughtful gesture? And why now?
As Vivian unravels the mystery of the ornaments, her daughter faces her own heart-wrenching decision: Should she stay with her longtime boyfriend or take a leap of faith with the man she never stopped loving?
Read the First Pages of Between the Lines: Featuring the full Prologue + Chapter One — your first look at Sadie and Corbyn’s story.
Starting over wasn’t part of Sadie Reed’s plan, but after leaving a toxic relationship, she takes a last-chance assignment in a quiet English village: get reclusive author Corbyn Pearce to finish his long-overdue novel. Corbyn is brilliant, stubborn, and scarred—inside and out. What begins as a battle of wills soon becomes a slow-burn connection neither is ready for, forcing them to confront the wounds they’ve spent years avoiding.
Perfect for readers who love emotional, character-driven romance with healing, found family, and a grumpy/sunshine dynamic.
Content Notes:
Contains references to emotional abuse (past), gaslighting, a brief confrontation with an abusive ex, chronic pain, and past trauma/loss.
After Hadley accidentally serves dinner guests turkey with a side of salmonella, Aunt Deb sentences her to cooking school, where secrets sizzle and danger is always on the burner.
Hadley Sutton thought the holiday season couldn’t get busier—until she enrolls in classes at the prestigious Madame Balleroy Cooking School in a desperate attempt to improve her kitchen karma. But before she can bake her first brioche, a renowned sous-chef is found murdered in the school’s kitchen.
Suddenly, Hadley is thrust into a simmering stew of lies and secrets, much to the chagrin of the irresistibly handsome Detective Dennis Appley, who comes to seek refuge at the Ladyvale Manor after receiving a chilling threat of his own.
As Hadley stirs up clues, she discovers no shortage of suspects, each with their own reasons to want the sous-chef dead. The more she uncovers, the more dangerous the investigation becomes. And while Hadley races to solve the mystery, there’s another enigma she can’t seem to crack—Detective Appley himself.
With more plot twists than a pretzel, this southern small-town mystery blends culinary chaos with a sprinkle of sweet romance, ensuring every page keeps you on your toes!
