Fireside Holidays

This wasn’t supposed to become a series. At the request of a reader who wanted Lex’s story, I’m now turning Sugar Pine Holiday into book 1 of Fireside Holidays, a new Search & Rescue series.

Sugar Pine Holiday #1

A rushed work trip to a mountain resort sends Ava into the humble, strong arms of a search and rescue stud. Can he save her heart? And can she rescue him before her time is up?

Ava Williams doesn’t want anything to do with winter or the snowy mountains of Colorado after her sister’s death. When a resort coordinator calls the week before Christmas, requesting her dance classes as part of a holiday retreat for couples, Ava can’t turn down the opportunity. It could change the future of her studio’s business. 

But Ava plans hide out in her room between classes, not ready to confront the memories of family vacations that used to bring her joy. She doesn’t expect to meet the handsome and extremely fit Cade, a member of the local search and rescue team. All he wants is one date. But Ava knows if she gives in, it could dismantle everything she’s worked so hard to create.

Cade Callahan is more than meets the eye, and Ava finds herself falling for him. Literally. He likes to play fair, and he’s desperate in a way only Ava can satisfy.

She has to keep her distance. How hard can it be for just one week?

A sweet, clean, holiday romance with a bit of suspense.

Wish Mountain Holiday #2

Danny Jones hates her name, but more than anything, she wishes she heard it more often. Patrolling a long and treacherous stretch of mountains as a tow truck operator has her wishing for a different life, until one stormy night, when a mysterious man on the side of the road flags her down.

Lex wanted only to get some rest. Instead, he’s out on the mountain, looking for a lost snowboarder who got a little too curious about the backside and hasn’t returned home. The young man he finds is in critical condition and not likely to make it if he isn’t pulled out of the canyon soon. Flagging down a tow truck, Lex is caught off guard by the driver. Miss Danny Jones is not what he expected.

Together, they pull the young man to safety and keep him warm until they can meet up with an ambulance.

An impromptu dinner together leads to a conversation that will change everything between Danny and Lex. But will Danny be able to let go of her burdens, and will Lex permit himself trust someone again? Or will they part ways for good when the job is done?

​​​​​​​A sweet holiday romance with a bit of suspense and mild language.
