The Book Store

~ Book One ~

 Pebble Cove series 

    Makenzie, single and in her mid-forties, just wanted to be left alone. Mid-life is hard enough and her new freedom is exciting. When she finds a small book store in a quiet community, she moves there to get away from unwanted attention after she comes into just enough money for a wonderful future.

Being a single mom hadn't been easy, but her daughter is now on her own and doing well, just worried about mom. Makenzie is proud of what she's accomplished and now she can be her own boss...unlike the past she's running from. Her ex-husband had too many rules and they had no friends.

A new start would be good for her...and her new whacky, single friends try to convince her of the magic that surrounds the small community. No one told her of the previous bodies found among the rocks at cove and she's shocked to learn about them.

Whispering Hearts

     This story takes place in England, 1688. The hero is ambushed and unable to remember who he is after he finds himself beaten and abandoned. He's rescued by a woman who convinces her father to allow her to nurse him back to health. What she doesn't count on is the attraction to a stranger she wants desperately to help. She's as curious as he is to discover his past and this takes them on a journey neither of them are prepared for.
