Big girls don’t cry over a spilled chocolate milkshake—they run like crazy.

     Alex Barrett’s all too “real life” sentence is almost over. She’s spent years being a parent to her siblings—and her flaky mother. What was her reward, other than an empty bed? Nothing. And now that she’s almost free, nothing’s exactly what she plans to do. Except have fun.

     One minute she’s one of thousands of panting female fans at hotter-than-hot Drew Hartford’s concert. The next, she’s all wet—and so is he. Okay, so it’s only because she dumped a milkshake all over him.

     Drew’s meteoric rise to the top of the country charts is fueled by the swooning women who throw themselves at his feet. Alex? She’s different. When their icy paths cross, she doesn’t throw her panties, she beats a hasty retreat. There’s only one way to keep this intriguing lady around long enough to charm her out of those panties: offer her a job she can’t refuse.

Drew may be every female’s definition of a fantasy man, but a paycheck and a roll in the hay do not a relationship make. Besides, Alex is tired of living 24/7 for someone else. Even a someone who’s offering her dreams of happily ever after…

Be careful what you ask for. It might come with spurs—and baggage.

The Paintbrush Series

     After catching her boyfriend with his pants around his knees while a walking, talking cliché takes “dictation”, Suzanne Walters quits her job, quits her man, quits Texas and moves to Wyoming to find the woman she used to be. Unfortunately, her first five minutes in Paintbrush finds her facing down the town bully in the local diner—and running smack into the one thing she’s not looking for: a wet dream in cowboy boots, Jacob Bowman.

     Jacob excels at two things—flying under the radar, and saving his pennies in hopes of running his own ranch someday. He can’t stop thinking about the fantasy in tight Wranglers who nearly mowed him down exiting the diner. The curvy, vivacious spitfire makes his mouth go dry. She’s got her eye on him, as well, but her determination to prove her independence is just as strong as the sexual pull between them.

     Life’s knocks have given them both strong hearts, and even stronger wills. As danger looms, that stubborn pride could cost their one chance to discover if there’s something more between them than great sex.

     Will they swallow their pride, or will they lose it all?

Length: Novel

Cover art by Angela Waters

     There are worse things than winding up dead…

     With her ex-husband’s death, Elyse Cabot thinks she’s permanently off the emotional roller coaster…until he turns up posing as his twin brother—the real victim of foul play—at his funeral. Before she can get any answers out of him, he’s gone, leaving her with more questions than closure.

     And a fortune in loose diamonds.

     Seeing Elyse again brings back a lot of hot, sweaty teenage memories for Jack. Then she opens her mouth and out comes some cockamamie story about her ex, diamonds and double crossing. So much for rekindling an old flame. Still, he just can’t seem to resist the lure of this dame in distress.

     He just hopes he can solve the case before he does something stupid—like fall in love.

What do you get when you have a beautiful B & B owner, an incognito movie star, his entourage and a leather wearing, hairless pooch all staying at the Wild Rose Bed and Breakfast?

Jamie Crawford needs time to unwind after his last movie. His sudden bump from B-list to A-list actor keeps him too busy to take time for himself. When an opportunity arises for him to sneak into a small Texas town and for some much-needed R & R, he snaps it up. The last thing he expects is to meet the beautiful owner and fall almost instantly head-over-heels.

Lorenna Beauchamp runs her inn and has time for little else. And that’s the way she likes it—until her stunningly handsome new guest piques an interest she thought long dormant. She breaks all her rules to get close to him. Imagine her surprise when she learns that not only has Jamie been hiding his identity, but he is one of the most sought after celebs.

Jamie has to persuade Lorenna his feelings are true while he convinces himself that loving someone isn’t detrimental to his career. Can Lorenna get past the lies and her mistrust of all things Hollywood to give Jamie a chance?
