She needs his help to protect the life she’s built. He can’t say no. Now they need to see that the love that was never supposed to be real—is as real as it gets—before it’s too late.

For eight years, Evie Rose has managed just fine on her own running a business and raising her son, Jonah. But when Jonah’s father reappears on the scene, she risks losing everything if she can’t prove she provides a stable family environment for her son. And fast.

Declan McCormick has dedicated his life to helping others. So when the super sexy, fiercely independent, Evie Rose asks for his help, there’s no way he can say no.Especially since she needs him to be her fake fiancé.After all, anything that means stealing a kiss or two, seems like a good deal.

It’s not supposed to be real, but the longer Evie spends with Declan the closer they get and not only does it start to look real, it also starts to feel more real than anything she’s ever felt before. The only problem is, Declan only sees her as a project—just someone else he can help. And when everything starts to unravel, tough decisions have to be made—quickly.

Evie will do anything to keep her son and the life they’ve built. Even if it means closing her heart to something she’s never felt before. Declan didn’t think love was possible, but if he doesn’t open his eyes to see what’s in front him, he could lose the family he’s grown to love—forever.

From this Moment
Book 5

Two men. Two very different futures. The problem? She’s falling for both of them.

For Chelsea McCormick, living in Cedar Springs is supposed to be temporary, nothing more than a chance to slow life down so that she can sort out the chaos of her life. Period. 

But when two very different men vie for her attention, Chelsea finds her beliefs challenged in ways she never thought possible.


Scott Harding has always loved the small town life. Settling down in a place with a sense of community, like Cedar Springs, then falling in love and starting a family is Scott’s idea of perfection. And Chelsea McCormick is just the woman who makes everything he’s ever wanted, seem possible.


Driven and ambitious, Lucas Lee sees his time in town as temporary, merely a launching pad to catapult him into a more prestigious position. He’s never been interested in a serious relationship, but Chelsea just might be special enough to change his mind forever.


Chelsea knows it’s time to move on, but things in Cedar Springs have just started to get interesting with two available and seriously gorgeous men vying for her attention. The problem is…they both represent two very different futures and Chelsea is drawn to both of them.


Love, adoration and a future? Or, excitement, passion and the unknown? One man appeals to who she wants to be, and one to who she realizes she’s always been. How can she possibly choose?

Love in the Moment
Book 1
She can’t get over the past. He's falling for a lie. Is their love strong enough to survive the truth?

After ten years, Ian McCormick was finally back in town and opening a brand new business. It was long past time to put his family drama behind him and maybe even have a little fun, just like the old days. And what better way to enjoy the summer than with the gorgeous brunette he’d just met at the bus depot?

One hundred pounds lighter, with a hot new look and a successful social media career, Gwen Henderson has returned to Cedar Springs. The last time she was there, she was awkward, overweight and her heart had been completely shattered. She knew there was a chance she’d run into him, but she wasn’t prepared for the man he’d become or for him to have no idea who she was.

Gwen comes up with an innocent plan, a social experiment performed solely for the benefit of her social media followers, and maybe she’d even get a little closure at the same time. Would Ian be interested in the new and improved version of her? It was the perfect idea. At least until all the feelings she thought were dead, come rushing back. 

She can’t back out once she starts. But can her heart survive Ian a second time? And with their hearts on the line, can Gwen continue to play a game that could hurt them both and destroy the only real chance at love she’s ever had?

Book 2
She’s sworn off relationships. He’s ready to find ‘the one’. The last thing either of them expected was each other.

As far as Jade Johnson is concerned, the only thing men have ever been good at is holding her back from achieving her dreams. But when work takes her to the small town of Cedar Springs to cast a new show, Jade comes face to face with a man who sets her world on fire and immediately challenges everything she’s ever believed.

Mitch McCormick is finally ready to put his playboy ways behind him and settle down, but the type of women he has been dating are definitely not the marrying type. Which is exactly why he needs a nice girl. An easy going, sweet, small town girl...

The exact opposite of the feisty, sharp tongued talent agent he can’t get off his mind. Jade challenges him and excites him in a way he's never experienced and she’s all he can think about. 

If he’s brave enough to follow his heart, Mitch will have to challenge the ideas of what he thinks he needs. But even if he can...Jade's made it clear that settling down isn't something she wants, not with him—not with anyone. When true love is at stake, can either of them truly let love in?

One More Moment
Book 3
Can love in the spotlight really have a chance to shine?


Playing the lead in the summer's hottest new show, being filmed in his home town, is a dream come true for Cal McCormick. It’s the big break he’s been waiting for after leaving his modeling career—and ex-girlfriend—behind in Australia. Things only get better after meeting the seriously cute and unassuming local real estate agent.

Milena Hill transformed her entire life by kicking her deadbeat boyfriend out and embarking on a new career. She’s ready to take on the world—or at least the town of Cedar Springs. The last thing she expects is to fall for an incredibly handsome television star. Even more unexpected? He is just as into her.

Caught up in a whirlwind romance is exciting, but dating a celebrity has its drawbacks, especially for a woman like Milena who hates the limelight. Enter Cal’s sexy co-star who shares a history with Cal that’s ripe for tabloid gossip, and things only get more complicated. How can Milena compete with a woman who is so unfairly gorgeous and as comfortable in the spotlight as Cal?

Cal must show Milena that living a life in the spotlight will only give her a chance to shine. But can Milena trust in a love that will turn her life upside down? And more importantly, can their new love withstand the pressures of stardom or is it nothing more than fresh gossip for the tabloids?
