New Release

At twenty-three, Kayla Bruce has lost almost everything. Her father is dead, the family bakery is gone, and the only home she's ever known has been foreclosed.

With nowhere else she wants to go, Kayla heads to Ramble Rock, a picturesque little town nestled in the hills above Jamaica's north coast. Her online fiancé, Brian Grant, has offered her a place to stay until he returns from working overseas.

But Kayla has another reason for going to Ramble Rock.

It's the hometown her father refused to talk about. Determined to uncover her family's past, Kayla begins asking questions about the mysterious Blackwoods, a prominent family whose history is tangled with secrets, scandal, and long-held grudges. The more she learns, the more she realizes that her father's silence was no accident. But the Blackwoods aren't the only ones keeping secrets.

There's also Brian.

After three years of phone calls and promises, Kayla has never met the man she plans to marry. Is he really everything he claims to be, or is he hiding secrets of his own?

In a town where everyone seems to know everyone else's business, Kayla is about to discover that some truths can change everything.

How does it help authors if I buy direct?

If you buy direct, we get paid within hours or days, rather than months — which helps us create more books.

We can also email you to tell you about other books you might enjoy.

While authors love the big stores and you can find our books there too, it's becoming pretty crowded on those sales pages! Our direct stores allow us to feature our products without having other products competing against them. 

I have a problem with my order. Do you offer returns?

It's important to me that you are happy with your order. If you have a problem or an issue, please contact me and I will get it sorted.

In what order should I read your books?

Most of my books are written so that they can be read as stand-alone stories, even if they are in a series. If you'd like to read in order, you can find a list here.
