Clara

Unless I find a lifeline, my bookstore will close its doors forever. My best shot at saving Book Nirvana is my late husband’s collection of rare, racy books, but I’m not ready to open that red door and face the flood of memories. And I’m not ready to open my heart again, even if the two new men in my life tempt me to try.

Nick

I came to Book Nirvana in search of antique bawdy books and fell hard for lovely, lonely Clara. As a widower, I understand her skittishness, but the spark between us is undeniable. My academic connections could rebuild her clientele, but if she discovers my secret scandal, her fragile trust will shatter.

Dalton

I’m over the moon for beautiful, bookish Clara, but how can a teacher like me compete with a suave professor like Nick? Clara and I have so much in common, and our sweet friendship could bloom into something deeper if it weren’t for my rival’s grip on the vulnerable widow. I don’t trust him, and neither should she.

Come to Book Nirvana for chosen family, laughter and tears, sizzling passion, and a love triangle for the ages.

Through the Red Door was previously published and has been revised and updated with new chapters.

Laurel

Fired again, and now darling Maxie needs my help. That San Francisco art gallery job will have to wait. I’m stuck in Eugene, Oregon, rescuing the auntie who rescued me.

Running into Dalton ignites a sweet flirtation that quickly turns spicy. He’s almost perfect: a beloved teacher and coach, wise and funny, and so compassionate with Maxie.

But he wants lasting love, and I’m only passing through. No matter how much I crave him, I can’t let him derail my dreams.

Dalton

Between my scheming ex and Mom’s dementia, this is the worst summer break ever—until Laurel.

Though she stubbornly denies her artistic gift, she’s brilliant, stunning, forthright, and the spark between us grows hotter each time we meet. But she’s clinging to big-city dreams, and I can’t leave my hometown.

Coming March 20, 2025

When a social media post about our budding love goes viral, Laurel’s insecurities flare. To keep her from running away, I’ll have to convince her how brightly she can shine right here.

Come to Book Nirvana for a spicy, funny, heart-wrenching tale of true love and second chances.

Runaway Love Story was previously published and has been revised and updated with new chapters.

Margot

Who needs family? On the cusp of launching my graphic arts career, I’m all about freedom—no fences, no limits, and no more bigoted family weighing me down. Between college, work at Book Nirvana, and a high-stakes art competition, I barely have time for my  part-time girlfriend, much less a flirtation with my competitor, even if his cocky, ginger-bearded hotness makes me question my “no strings” rule.

Elmer

Family is everything, and I’ve found my family of the heart in the Eugene, Oregon art scene. But something is missing...until Margot, my rival for an art grant we both desperately need. That prickly little sprite lights me up body and soul, but she fears I’m out to clip her wings. I’m not made to share my heart with more than one, and falling for Margot could wreck me.

Come to Book Nirvana for a red-hot love triangle that forces two young artists to redefine success, family, and freedom.

Love, Art, and Other Obstacles was previously published and has been revised and updated with new chapters.
