I've always enjoyed thinking about tough, seasoned lawmen turning as smooshy as a marshmallow when love catches them unawares.
Such is the case in my new release - Lawmen and Love.
Three tough lawmen aren’t prepared for the moment when love arrives and turns their worlds upside down.
This boxed set contains three full-length sweet and wholesome romances full of heart, humor, and hope featuring courageous women and brave men who uphold the law.
♥ Corsets and
Cuffs – He never knew trouble had such a pretty face. She never knew the law
could be so handsome and hardheaded.
Pampered and privileged, Brianna Dumont escapes the life
she’s always known in an effort to clear her father’s good name. She arrives in
Baker City, Oregon, intent on selling her father’s shares in a mine. Only the
mine is a bust, her father’s partner is a crusty ol’ coot who hates women, and
the sheriff in town is determined to keep her behind bars.
With good friends around him, a small ranch of his own, and
a fulfilling job as sheriff, Tully Barrett loves his life. Then an exasperating
woman shows up, making demands and driving him crazy. No matter how hard he
tries to ignore her brains and beauty, she works her way under his skin.
When trouble follows her to Baker City, will Tully be able
to protect her, along with his heart?
♥ Caterina - She’s hiding her past. He’s
determined to reveal the truth.
On the run from the Italian mafia, feisty Caterina
Campanelli escapes New York City with the help of her brother and travels
across the country. She ends up in the small, rugged town of Pendleton, Oregon,
where she makes new friends and focuses on building her future as a chef. Completely
unprepared for the passionate feelings inspired by the handsome deputy in town,
the last thing she needs is for a man of the law, especially one so relentless
and exasperating, to dig around in her past.
Dedicated to his work as a deputy, Kade Rawlings takes pride
in his community and his job protecting it. Determined to remain single and
unfettered, he finds himself unable to stay away from the Italian spitfire who
rolls into town keeping secrets and making the best food he’s ever eaten. Using
his charm, wit, and brawn, he may just get more than he bargained for when he
sets out to win her trust and her heart.
Will Kade be able to keep Caterina safe when her past
catches up to her?
♥ Distracting the Deputy - He’s sworn to uphold the law. Her life is riddled with closely guarded secrets. When the past catches up to her, will she rush to him or run away?
When he’s not evading grabby-handed octogenarians, mentoring
troubled teens, or rescuing rascally youngsters from disaster, Deputy Knox
Strickland can be found upholding the law in the eastern Oregon region he
patrols. He avoids making plans for tomorrow, focusing instead on doing his
best today. Then one chance encounter with a beautiful woman in a wheat field
turns his world upside down. Knox is left questioning what secrets she’s
hiding, and how hard he’ll have to work to scale the fortress she's built around
her heart.
Zadie Redmond isn’t like most women. A life spent looking
over her shoulder has destroyed the promising future she’d once envisioned. Her
days are spent leading hunting and fishing adventures or teaching tiny
ballerinas the proper way to plié. She fills her evenings with do-it-yourself
projects while worrying about the day her past catches up with her. In an
unexpected moment, the local deputy swoops into her world like a storybook hero
and she knows nothing will ever be the same. Zadie will do anything to keep
Knox safe from the danger lurking in the shadows, even if it destroys her
chance at love.
Will Knox convince Zadie she can trust him with her secrets and her heart?
