We Found Love (a FREE small town baker and celebrity chef romance)

Bakery owner Polly Lockhart desperately needs CEO Luke Stone to help save her business. But Luke soon realizes that lovable Polly just might end up saving him. This is a revised edition of SWEET DREAMS (A Sugar Rush Romance) by Nina Lane, featuring the same heartwarming plot and characters (not to mention all the chocolate!), but with less explicit love scenes. Polly Lockhart has zero time for romance, despite her friends' pestering that she needs to "live a little." Unfortunately, she's far too busy struggling to keep her mother's beloved bakery afloat. But when she agrees to a night out on the town, Polly meets a sinfully delicious man who shows her exactly what she's been missing. And...wow. Sugar Rush Candy Company CEO Luke Stone is a devoted businessman who doesn't do relationships. He does short-term affairs with clearly defined rules. But when he encounters the charming, artless Polly, Luke is tempted to want more. Good thing he'll never see her again, right? When fate intervenes to bring the sexy, bohemian sweetheart and hardcore CEO together again, their differences...and attraction...throw them both for a loop. Can these two unlikely lovers find a way to taste the sweetness of life? This is a revised, sweeter version of Nina Lane's SWEET DREAMS, which is still available in the steamier edition.

Sweet Dreams

Fleeing a bad relationship (lately the story of her life), broken-hearted Aria Prescott returns to the only place she can heal…and rescue a few orphaned cats. Though she knew starting over would be tough, the last thing Aria expects is an all-out turf war with the enigmatic property developer carving a determined path of his own—right through her brand new business, located in the most colorfully “historic” (aka rundown) parts of her hometown. For Hunter Armstrong, the billion-dollar deal he’s been finalizing in the (admittedly one-of-a-kind) coastal town of Bliss Cove wasn’t supposed to have any complications. He certainly wasn’t counting on locking horns with a feisty local sweetheart, her army of cats, and her two nosy sisters. Ruthless by necessity, Hunter isn't accustomed to losing—not in business, and definitely not when it comes to his (normally) well-guarded heart. *This book was previously published under the title Love Walks In — same swoony, emotional small town romance, just with a fresh new title and cover. * * * * * Heart-grabbing small town love stories with uniquely imperfect couples and hard-fought ever afters.

The Moment We Knew (Aria & Hunter)

Bookstore owner Sam Donovan is Bliss Cove’s most stoic bachelor (though most argue he’s just plain grouchy). With a past he’s kept secret out of necessity, Sam can’t afford to let anyone in, especially not the perky local journalist he’s been avoiding all year. Inquisitive by trade, and too damn fun by default, Brooke somehow sneaks past all the defenses guarding his hardened heart. And this is without the help of a big storm keeping them stuck up on a mountain together… Now jobless, adrift, and pushing the big 30, Brooke Castle desperately needs to hit reset and regroup. But when she gets trapped with the intensely reticent Sam, she’s surprised to find her own self-discovery comes with learning his buried secrets. Though both have careers built on stories, their deep-rooted views on life—and love—couldn’t be more different. Which begs the question: what will they do with their own ‘what happened in the cabin, stays in the cabin’ tale? *This book was previously published under the title Words of Love — same swoony, emotional small town romance, just with a fresh new title and cover. * * * * * Heart-grabbing small town love stories with uniquely imperfect couples and hard-fought ever afters.

This Time With Her (Sam & Brooke)

Computer genius Rory Prescott is ready to move out of Bliss Cove for good. No real shock there since coming home to help her family a few years ago was supposed to be temporary. The one hiccup before Rory can start her new software job back in the city, however, is the fact that she doesn’t have a place to stay her last few weeks in town. But what she does have is a Grant. As in her grumpy, tech-averse buddy Grant Taylor, owner of the local tavern and a spare cottage… Setting small town roots far from his wealthy family’s reach was how Grant built himself a new life. But with his brother’s wedding coming up, Grant anticipates a major mother ambush—most likely entailing a frenzy of single socialites. Hence his deal to let Rory stay with him in exchange for a few weeks of pretend girlfriend duties. A fake relationship with real sparks in close quarters between two people who couldn’t be more opposite.

Everything We Haven’t Said (Rory & Grant)

After getting pushed out of the scientific community, renowned physicist Dr. Adam Powers is relegated to working as a consultant…for a ghost hunter show. Talk about hitting rock bottom. At least this gives him the chance to expose supernatural sightings as nothing but a hoax. That is, unless the Bliss Cove librarian locking horns with him succeeds in proving otherwise. The sweet, scrappy woman almost has him believing in the unexplainable—and not just in terms of ghosts. Bee Delaney escaped a bad childhood and fought to find her calling in the ramshackle mansion housing her beloved, semi-crumbling library. To save both, Bee sets out to prove a 19th century ghost lives within the very walls the town wants to demolish. Hello, instant tourist attraction! But while every ghostlike event caught on camera gets Bee closer to her goal, it deepens the rift that keeps Adam, and the only other thing she’s wanted more than a safe home, just out of reach. * * * * * Emotional small town love stories with all the swoon, and all the feels.
