Ride With My Heart
(Southland Romance Book 3)
Maddie Baker is back
at Southland, trying to put her life back together after her divorce. When she
reconnects with her former rodeo partner, she struggles to keep the feelings
she’s always had for him hidden. After all, it’s too soon, and she’d had a good
reason for keeping her distance all those years ago.
Georgia State Trooper
Heath Cook has been avoiding Maddie since she moved home, knowing the crush
he’s always harbored won’t stay hidden for long. If his wasn’t the only heart
he cared about protecting, it might be different. But his daughter doesn’t need
to get attached to someone on the rebound.
Maddie and Heath’s renewed
friendship leads to a deeper attraction than either of them imagined possible.
But with Maddie’s jealous ex making a play to win her back, Heath has to decide
if he’s willing to put his future on the line. And when Maddie’s past comes
back to haunt her, it might be beyond Heath’s power to help. Together, they’ll
have to see if they can hold on for the roughest ride of their lives.
This contemporary
romance contains Southern Gothic elements.
Excerpt:
Heath pulled back to
look at her. “Reunion?”
“I know you dated her
in college.” Maddie watched his reaction in the glow of the moon.
“How?” He squeezed her
upper arms.
“Because I called you
and she answered the phone. She was happy to inform me I’d been replaced.” A
knot formed in Maddie’s throat, and she looked down.
“When? When did you
call me?” His grip tightened.
“When I needed a
friend—” Her voice broke, and she turned her head away, hoping he wouldn’t
catch the tear rolling down her cheek.
He caught it in the
pale light and wiped it away. “She lied. You’re irreplaceable, Maddie Baker.
I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you. If I’d known—”
“It was for the best
really.” She forced herself to meet his gaze. “I needed to learn to survive
without you.”
“But it was hard just
surviving each day.” He swallowed audibly. “Wasn’t it?” Heath’s hands moved to
her back, and he pulled her closer to his warm chest.
Maddie nodded because
she couldn’t speak. She wanted to put the past behind her, but if she didn’t
talk to Heath about it, it would come between them more than it already had.

Dance With My Heart
(Southland Romance Book 2)
Synopsis
Traumatized by her
past, former police officer Jane Dillon gets a new start in Los Angeles as a
bodyguard. If she weren’t so good at saving people, she might seek a new career.
At least when she moonlights as a dance teacher, no one shoots at her. One
impossible-to-please macho boss, one hunk of manly hot action hero, and one
oversized Southern family set her on a course she never saw coming.
Former Navy SEAL,
Danny Baker, has a lot to deal with between his dad’s health, his sister’s
public breakup, and figuring out how to get rid of a female employee without
getting a sexual discrimination suit filed against him. He’s always believed it
to be his duty to protect women and children, but seeing the beautiful and
lethal Jane in action turns his worldview upside down. He’d almost rather go
back to the jungle, except the dance floors of L.A. and the woods of Georgia
are providing plenty of excitement.
If they can overcome
their differences, Danny's family, and Jane's past, they might find that they
make the perfect team.
