Each book follows one of the friends as she finds love — and each story stands on its own, though they’re best enjoyed in order.
The house looks something like this. It is in disrepair, but the bank hired a rental company to upgrade three bedrooms. The three close friends are thrilled to live together in a placed they can afford! They laugh at the the middle school students who joke about it being haunted.
Waiting for Zoey
35,000 words (perhaps a few more)
Coming November 2026
I can’t wait to see the covers. I should get them by the end of September.
Working version of the blurb
She’s spent her life helping everyone else. What happens when she’s the one who needs saving?
Zoey: I love helping people — so why can’t I ever seem to please my own mother and sister? When their words turn cruel, my father finally tells me the truth about our family. Cutting ties with my mother and sister might be the healthiest thing I’ve ever done — but losing my sister means I may never see my nephew, Mason, again. It’s Jeremy, a man who can’t sit still, who holds me until I feel whole again.
At least I have my two best friends and the old house on Pendleton Drive. They are my trusted found family, the one I chose when the others let me down. Life is looking good — until I learn Jeremy is keeping a secret he should have shared.
Jeremy: I’m the middle-school gym teacher in Eagle Landing, and I live by one rule: nobody changes me. Mason turns up in my class and lets slip something about home that disturbs me. And I respect his privacy.
When I finally share it with Zoey, she’s hurt, and I watch the woman I’ve fallen for walk away. I always thought it never mattered when a woman left. Zoey taught me otherwise. I have a plan to win her back, if I can pull off a miracle.
This time, the greatest risk isn’t falling in love. It’s realizing she’s the adventure I’ve been waiting for all along.
A clean, wholesome slow-burn romance with found family, small-town charm, and a fiercely protective hero.
Until I get the cover, here’s a quick idea of the characters…

Falling for Rachel

Coming March 2027
More about Rachel’s story soon. Maybe even a draft of the blurb, once the story is finished.
You may remember Owen from Molly’s Nemesis (the story that introduced Eagle Landing and the Delaney family). The man has always known exactly what’s right and what’s wrong. He may—or may not—be the friend Rachel needs.
