​"The characters and the story were wonderfully written. It was a joy to read. With all that we are facing at this time in our country, these books take me away to another place for a while."

A fall festival. A Halloween pet parade. Black Friday shopping. What could possibly go wrong? Everything!

Autumn features a vibrant season bursting with reds and golds, an endearing Halloween pet parade, and a harvest festival tradition. What could go wrong? Everything, 

Autumn Hamilton is appalled when hard-hearted Ethan Rasmussen becomes the guardian of her orphaned six-year-old neighbor. Suddenly, Autumn is pulled into a complex and heartbreaking family saga, and she quickly realizes she must stop Ethan from making a huge mistake, regardless of his good intentions. The trouble is, Ethan is as tenacious as she is. And despite their mutual attraction, they know that two stubborn hearts can never beat as one. Or can they?

Meanwhile, Autumn has troubles of her own. Her once successful career as an artist has tanked, her beloved small town is being crushed under the weight of big box stores, and her best friend is definitely hiding something. While the town merchants work to revive Finch’s Crossing’s quaint downtown, Autumn searches for her creative muse, not knowing it’s been with her all along.

The season of renewal brings second chances and secrets to the small town of Finch’s Crossing.

Spring Hamilton is a born planner with one foot in the exciting new future she’s creating for herself. Gabe Vignarolli lives in the moment. Oh, and he broke her heart two decades earlier. If Spring gives him a second chance, it will also be his last. 

On the way to a new life in New York City, Spring detours to Finch’s Crossing for a quick visit with her sister Autumn. But a chance encounter with Gabe changes everything. As Spring and Gabe rekindle their love, one week turns into two and then three. Spring postpones her move to New York to be with Gabe and help with Autumn’s unexpected wedding. The coziness of small-town life begins to take root in Spring’s heart. But when she is unwittingly launched into reckless circumstances she never could have predicted, she packs her bags to get as far away from Gabe as possible. 

To further complicate matters, a faceless bully is wreaking havoc on the town with a flurry of poison pen letters, threatening to reveal the residents’ darkest secrets. Is it too coincidental that the letters began as soon as Spring arrived? And Gabe, hiding a stunning secret of his own, hopes no one, especially the cruel letter writer, discovers it.

Winter: Finch's Crossing Book Four
READ AN EXCERPT | PRE-ORDER (Available 1/1/2021)

The season of snow and storms brings a historic cold front when Win Hamilton arrives in Finch’s Crossing. What will it take to break through her icy demeanor?

Winter “Win” Hamilton’s high school nickname, “Ice Queen,” has followed her all her life, and she is, in fact, just that—cold, selfish, and emotionally detached. But her steely demeanor helped her achieve a full partnership, at age thirty-seven, in a prestigious architectural firm. And now, she leads her own international property development firm, which has made her a millionaire many times over. True, she doesn’t have many friends, but she lives in a luxury condominium, takes incredible vacations around the world, and dresses flawlessly in designer clothes. What more could she want?
 
But when Win breaks her leg in an accident, and realizes her fair-weather friends won’t come to her aid, she reluctantly returns to her childhood home in Finch’s Crossing to recover under the care of her sister, Autumn. As the broken bones heal, with the help of the handsome local doctor W. Armistead “Tripp” Harrison, she rediscovers the traditional values she grew up with, and wonders how on earth her life got so out of balance. Is it too late for the Ice Queen to change?
 
As her strength returns and she embarks on a self-improvement campaign, Win realizes that the unflappable and aloof doctor is the one man in town who isn’t rendered tongue-tied in her presence. Accustomed to getting her way, she bristles at his lack of interest in her. Thinking she’s met the male version of herself, she knows she has her work cut out for her.
 
Dr. Tripp Harrison has retreated to Finch’s Crossing to escape old wounds. But when he spots a grey sedan following him around town, he knows his past has caught up with him. All he wants is a fresh start, but apparently that is not going to be possible in Finch’s Crossing. And then there’s Win Hamilton, whose beauty leaves men quaking in her wake. But beneath her icy demeanor, Tripp suspects she is hurting. And just like him, there must be more to her than meets the eye.
