Emery Vale and Mason Carver have spent their whole lives orbiting each other - same holidays, same family dinners, same bickering that feels older than time. They'd both swear they can't stand one another.
But one Christmas in New York changes everything.
Between gingerbread disasters, late-night tea on the balcony, and a city that won't stop snowing, they start to realize maybe the fighting was just another kind of gravity. Mason learns how to stay. Emery learns how to breathe. And for a while, the world feels endless.
It's not a love story that lasts forever.
It's the one that changed them anyway.
(A slow-burn holiday romance about finding warmth, choosing air, and loving someone even when the snow melts.)

The Cowboy in Aspen
A teacher turned volunteer. A quiet cowboy and his little boy. One accidental introduction - and two lives that start to find each other across continents, time zones, and fate itself. Because sometimes, the right person is waiting in a place you never planned to go. ************************************* For Isla Cohen, this year is about saying yes. Yes to adventure. Yes to helping others. Yes to something more. Teaching can wait - but volunteering in Sri Lanka and backpacking across Europe with her best friend, Hazel, can't.

Between snowstorms and coffee shifts, stories start to travel both ways. The brothers hear about Isla - bright, stubborn, and full of sunshine - and can't help but imagine how perfectly she'd suit their brother, Levi, a quiet cowboy and devoted single dad who hasn't smiled the same since everything changed. And Hazel agrees. Maybe fate just needs a little push. With one meddling best friend and three matchmaking brothers, two strangers who've only heard about each other begin to fall for a love story that feels written in the stars. Because sometimes, even across oceans, the heart knows where it belongs.
Several Shades of Feelings

However, after the school jock, Leo Rowan, gives her chocolates for Valentine's Day she starts questioning herself. This change affects her more when her childhood friend, Asher Hart, appears after so many years. Will these two boys change Aria for the better or for a dangerous worse?

Every Time You Looked Away
Scarlet Rogers never believed in second chances... not for love, and certainly not for the man who once broke her heart like it meant nothing. When her ex returns to their friend circle with a new girl on his arm and that same smirk on his face, Scarlet does the unthinkable. She kisses Asher Ellesmere. Quiet, unreadable Asher. The man who sketches the world in silence, speaks in shadows, and watches everything like it's a story worth telling. Their lips meet under the salty breeze of a beach bonfire, and just like that, a lie is born. They'll pretend. For a month-long holiday soaked in sun and wine, laughter and late-night swims, they'll hold hands, share blankets, and trade glances meant to burn. But somewhere between pretending to smile and actually meaning it, between stolen kisses meant for show and the soft way his fingers brush hers when no one's looking, Scarlet begins to wonder... What if this lie feels more like home than the truth ever did? As the days stretch and the waves keep time, hearts tangle in quiet moments. And by the time the ex starts to notice... Scarlet's not sure she even cares. Because Asher...soft-spoken Asher, who never asked her to fake anything...is starting to feel like the one thing she never knew she needed.Complete
Life and Emery
In a quiet town pulsing with secrets and second chances, Life and Emery follows the journey of Emery-a woman haunted by loss, fiercely independent, and unexpectedly pregnant-as she stumbles into a life that feels both foreign and strangely meant to be. Offered refuge behind the bustling warmth of a local bar, she carves out a modest sanctuary in a converted storage room, determined to rebuild her world piece by piece. But rebuilding isn't simple. Especially when Jamie-stoic, loyal, and frustratingly magnetic-keeps showing up, offering far more than safety. As their relationship deepens and emotional walls begin to crumble, Emery must confront the ghosts of her past, the tenderness of chosen family, and the terrifying beauty of becoming a mother. Woven through painterly scenes of domestic intimacy, fragile vulnerability, and quiet joy, this story is a love letter to found family, the ache of beginning again, and the fierce softness that comes with finally letting someone in.

As power goes out, snow piles high, and the world outside freezes over, something between them begins to thaw. Kai has his own reasons for keeping people at a distance. But Lena's warmth-and her pain-start to mirror his own in unexpected ways. Over shared meals, silent stares, and moments by the fire, two broken souls start to find comfort in each other's presence. But when the storm clears... will they leave what they found behind?Complete
A Scar Of Our Own (Now available on Amazon )
Allegra Westbrook thought she had forever. She and her husband were inseparable since their first year of college-best friends, lovers, soulmates. But forever shattered the night a car accident stole him away, leaving her a widow at just twenty-six, raising their infant son alone in a city where every street carried his memory. Desperate to breathe again, she packs up her life in London and crosses the ocean, searching for a place where her grief doesn't suffocate her. Isaac Molten knows fire, loss, and survival. For six years, he's run headfirst into flames as a small-town firefighter, saving lives even as he failed to save the only one who mattered most. His fiancée-his best friend since childhood-died just weeks before their wedding. Now thirty-one, Isaac lives with a hollow chest and a family that fears he'll burn himself out before he lets anyone in again. When Allegra and her son settle in Isaac's tight-knit Georgia town, neither is looking for love. What they find instead is recognition-in the way silence lingers, in the way grief leaves its mark, in the way scars can mirror each other across oceans. But falling for each other means facing the guilt of moving on, the whispers of a town that remembers too much, and the terror of losing again. Raw, heartbreaking, and redemptive, A Scar of Our Own is a story of second chances, of finding light in the ashes, and of learning that scars don't disappear-sometimes, they're what hold us together.Complete
