    As someone born and raised in the South Carolina Lowcountry, I've been surrounded by Gullah my whole life. But Gullah ain't just speech or stories-it's a way of life. It's in the food, the rituals, the rhythms of how we love, grieve, teach, and remember. Most folks my age probably got their first taste of Gullah through the Nickelodeon show Gullah Gullah Island. Ron and Natalie Daise offered a joyful and real glimpse into life on the South Carolina sea islands. Their work helped preserve something sacred. Now, it's my turn to carry that flame. This series is my offering-a new wave of Gullah storytelling for today's children and families. Though I no longer live in the Lowcountry, I still hold tight to the traditions, language, superstitions, and spirit that shaped my formative years. What inspired this collection? A YouTube video that sent me right back to childhood. One story. One voice. One memory. It unlocked the power of oral tradition-the way a simple tale could carry truth, warning, joy, and history, all at once. If you've never heard a Gullah story, I invite you to start here: 👉🏾 Gullah Tale - Chicken Dinner Money https://youtu.be/YhfL3JtEFp8?si=LF9fSud7Fws8bMi2 This series is for those who remember... and those who are just beginning to.

    An orphaned, small-town, southern girl, held hostage by responsibility and self-doubt. A Hollywood A-list mega-star, on the run from his latest scandal and with everything to lose. A chance encounter that leads to an unlikely arrangement and epic love affair that will change them both forever. When his co-star and real-life girlfriend is caught cheating on him by the tabloids, A-list hottie, Jack Eversea, finds himself in sleepy Butler Cove, South Carolina. Jack hopes the sultry southern heat in this tiny coastal Lowcountry town will hide him not only from the tabloids and his cheating girlfriend, but his increasingly vapid life and the people who run it. He doesn’t count on meeting Keri Ann Butler. Keri Ann has relied on herself so long, dealing with her family’s death and the responsibilities of keeping up her family's historic mansion, that boys and certainly the meager offering of eligible boys in Butler Cove, have never figured into her equation. But fate has other plans. Suddenly face to face with the man who played the movie role of her favorite fictional character, Jack has Keri Ann yearning for everything she has previously avoided ... and Jack must decide whether this funny, sassy girl is worth changing his life for, before his mistakes catch up to him.

    In a sleepy South Carolina low country town where marsh grass sways under golden sunsets and Spanish moss drips from the live oaks, June "Junie" Harper feels stuck. She spends her days pulling espresso shots at Sweetwater Café, serving coffee to familiar faces along the boardwalk. With her wildflower spirit and ocean-blue eyes, she hides a dream of pursuing her own craft-whether it's art, photography, or starting a roastery of her own. But dreams feel far away when you're rooted in small-town routine. Enter Colt Walker, a nationally famous bull rider who's returned to his hometown to lay low before his next big competition. Rugged, scarred, and carrying the weight of rodeo fame, Colt doesn't expect to find anything-or anyone-worth staying for. That changes the morning he steps into Junie's café, where her easy smile and refusal to treat him like a celebrity catch him completely off guard. At first, their lives couldn't be more different: Junie craves stability and roots, while Colt lives on the edge, chasing danger and fame. Yet the more their paths cross-her delivering coffee to the rodeo, him showing up at the café far too often-the stronger the pull between them grows. Late-night walks under string lights, dusty rodeo arenas, and quiet moments over coffee bring them closer, even as they resist what's happening. When Colt suffers a devastating fall in the arena, both are forced to confront what they truly want. For Colt, it's the chance to be more than just his career. For Junie, it's realizing her dreams don't have to mean leaving behind the people-or love-that make her feel most alive. Set against the backdrop of low country tides, rodeo grit, and the warmth of a tight-knit town, Where the Cypress Sways is a slow-burn romance about finding love where you least expect it, and the courage to chase both your dreams and your heart.
