Book 1 : Jenna's Fresh Start

Jenna’s building may be falling apart, but the real fixer-upper might be Mike Townsend’s heart.

Newbie renovator Jenna Cassidy can't believe her luck—the old brick building in Poet is hers, thanks to a winning bid at the county’s tax auction. Sure, it’s leaning into disaster and possibly haunted by bad decisions, but she’s all in.

Contractor Mike Townsend wishes he could say the same. He’s been eyeing that building for years, and now a bright-eyed amateur with zero experience is threatening everything he’s worked for.

Things get even messier when their dogs, Murphy and Lola, fall head over paws for each other. When Jenna’s quirky plans clash with Mike’s professional pride, sparks fly—and not the good kind.

He’s all grumble and grit. She’s sunshine with a toolbox. Can two stubborn hearts restore Poet's city center—and maybe each other—before everything crumbles?

Book 2 : Carolyn Explains

She’s rebuilding her life.

He just blew it up.

Widow Carolyn Allen has crafted a quiet life around her young son Jett, her knitting podcast Carolyn Explains, and the temporary safety of a friend’s empty house. It’s a peaceful pause while her own home undergoes renovation.

Until Ace Townsend shows up on her doorstep with a silent five-year-old girl, a battered suitcase… and a letter that changes everything.

Now Ace, suddenly a father, is moving back in—with Carolyn and Jett still in residence.

What starts as a collision of two struggling lives slowly knits itself into something unexpected: a home filled with warmth, dancing housekeepers, nosy lawyers, and laughter.

Love doesn’t always arrive on schedule.

Sometimes, it shows up with a child in one hand and hope in the other.

Book 3 : Rescuing Katie

He saved her once.

Now she might just save him right back.

Katie Cassidy can fix anything—except, apparently, her own life. As the upbeat owner of Nailed It, she’s used to solving problems with style and flair.

But when she helps a runaway wife vanish, Katie finds herself in the crosshairs of a powerful enemy... and one humiliating public meltdown away from disaster.

Enter Noel Basinger: cynical lawyer, reluctant rescuer, and Katie’s long-time nemesis. For 70¢ Noel becomes Katie's lawyer. Against his better judgment, he’s also drawn into Katie’s world of makeshift miracles and chaos-on-demand charm.

But when they’re forced to pair up for a high-stakes wilderness challenge, the real test isn’t the terrain.

Sometimes the person you’ve always clashed with… is exactly who you’ve been searching for.

Book 4 : Rebel's Sweet Spot

Recipe for love:

1 dreamer

1 grumpy fire chief

1 cat with attitude

Stir well

Rebel Hamilton has one marketable skill—she can bake like an angel. Her plan? Turn a crumbling coastal bakery into Sweet Spot, live in the dusty apartment upstairs with her rescue cat Pumpkin, and pour her heart into pastries.

Deputy Fire Chief Tom Harris is unimpressed. The building’s a firetrap, Rebel’s a walking hazard, and he’s at her door so often he deserves loyalty points.

But when mysterious incidents threaten Rebel’s grand opening, and a broken-tailed cat draws them closer, Tom starts seeing something more than a stubborn dreamer—he sees a woman worth protecting.

And maybe… worth falling for. Sometimes love rises where you least expect it.

Book 5 : Kirsten's 2nd Chance

She’s hiding. He’s healing.

Love finds them both.

Newcomer Kirsten Trigger is building a quiet life in Poet, Oregon. Her consignment shop, Twice Loved, is thriving, her circle of friends growing, and—for once—her fragile heart feels steady.

But she’s keeping a secret, and soon the truth will catch up with her.

Grant Adams thought he'd left the past behind when he gave up his paramedic career for a quieter life as a firefighter.

But when he inherits the cluttered estate of a man he never cared for, he hires Kirsten to help liquidate the assets and donate the proceeds.

As secrets surface and emotions deepen, Grant and Kirsten are forced to confront their pasts… and take a chance on something new.

Some hearts take longer to heal. But love always has a way of finding its second chance.

Book 6 : Kim's Billionaire Summer

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished...

This is my second cross-over between the Hummingbird Place Romance series and the Dog Walker Cozy Mystery series—just couldn't help myself.

First, I snagged prickly Nikki Lawry from the Hummingbird series to begin the 5 Book Dog Walker Cozy Mysery series.(More to come!)

Now I'm compelled to hook the wonderful Dog Walker series character Kim Washington up with a man good enough to deserve her—inside the Hummingbird series. Bounce, bounce, bounce!

Poor Nikki was injured during one of her crazy dog rescue schemes, with Kim sending her back to LA for a long rest for her own protection. That girl just can't be trusted...

This leaves Kim to supervise the dog rescue build, which immediately explodes into extremely complicated the moment Nikki is rolled onto that plane to LA...
