The Garden down the Beach

Her gardening business needs more clients. 
His property needs restoration. 
Can a not-so-chance meeting lead to more than a landscaping job?

Kamber Dai believes in creating peaceful garden spaces. She's often online, sharing her plant updates and offering her consulting services. Her house-sitting gig is almost up, and she'll need a lot more clients to afford housing in the region.

Shiloh Boyd lives two miles down the beach on Sandbrooke Island, Washington, in his grandparents’ house. He’s tasked to return the property's garden to what it once was, in honor of his late grandmother. The view of Puget Sound from the baby grand piano inspires him as he creates calming, soft-voiced audio clips for use in reels. 

Online followers, and Gramps, want to see Kamber and Shiloh spend time together, but each is focused on building their careers. 

Is there room for a relationship in all their planning? 

Happy reading!

Sequel to Finding Love in Friday Harbor, Washington. 

Seven years after Finding Love in Friday Harbor, Washington.

Aurora “Rori” Teagan can’t escape her genes. Though she’d be in demand, following her mother’s modeling career path is unthinkable. Instead, she works her family’s farm with her father on San Juan Island, determined to build her own life. But change is in the air this holiday season.

Problem is, he hasn’t resolved everything from his last overseas relationship.

Her brother’s best friend has changed a lot since he left the island. The wonder of Christmas inspires connection and romance, but their lives are on two different continents. Will Rori and Jonah find love before the Christmas lights come down?

Unfortunately, a past breakup has soured her on relationships. When a literary agent wants to see her manuscript as soon as she can finish it, writer’s block stalls her progress.

Best-selling picture book author and illustrator Eli Jaxon has relocated to Puget Sound to be nearer to his family. He’s on deadline for his next Prescott the Proper Peacock volume, but worry for his niece distracts him. Past mistakes keep him closed off to dating.

When Peyton needs help with her story, previously married Eli volunteers to help her brainstorm. Can they deny their attraction, or will they live their own Christmas romance?

A Christmas Duet!

 Now a stand-alone release!

 

A Christmas Duet

Originally included in the anthology, Melodies of Christmas Love, Christmas 2020. Now a release from Prism Effect Publishing.

Here's more about the story:

Following a breakup, professional cellist Kate Fleming’s well of inspiration has run dry. Her musical ensemble is counting on her to write several cello and piano compositions for their next album. She’s rented a beautiful beach house on Whidbey Island for the Christmas season. But the atmosphere may not be inspiring enough.

Church music director Zach Tillmon would love to book a professional musician for the upcoming Christmas program. His number-one choice is out of reach. But perhaps the newcomer wouldn’t mind sharing her talents with the congregation.

When these two perform together, sparks fly. But their lives aren’t settled, so a romance is out of the question. Or is it? 

Join them near picturesque Puget Sound at Christmastime for a delightfully musical love story.

This is the sequel my novel award-finalist novel, Finding Love in Whidbey Island, Washington. For the best experience, I recommend reading these in order.
