Silver Nights With You
Love in the Sierras - Book 1
The town was lawless, the people rough, and nothing west of the Missouri River set the wagon wheels spinning like the glitter of silver and gold. When Lila Cameron stepped off the bullet-riddled stage coach in Gold Hill, NV life never looked so bleak. That is, until her father announced that they would be staying. She took on her new life with pluck, wading through a sea of sin and everything that ever made the west wild, and just when she felt in control, she found herself targeted by three men. One who wanted to wed her. One who wanted to bed her. And one who wanted her dead.
Morgan Kelly wanted a wife and a peaceful life in the shadows of the Sierras. When the young debutante from the east coast swept into his town, he fell instantly. But she made it clear that her affection lay elsewhere and he did his best to let her go. Fate and the devious intentions of other men pushed them together, and there was no going back for either of their hearts. But the way forward was filled with danger.
Against the backdrop of the greatest silver boom in the history of America, Morgan and Lila fight through the perils of early mining, western justice and the fear of hope.

Desert Sunrise
Love in the Sierras - Book 2
Identity is a fickle thing, ever changing to meet the demands of its owner. Collette Barbier escapes her past, hiding in the shuffle of a busy boomtown. When the young and handsome Val sets his sights on discovery, she vows he'll get more than he bargained for. Trouble is, so does she when he unwittingly entangles her in a dangerous game of politics.
Valentine Kelly knows Collette is gorgeous, but she is also shrill, shrewish and stubborn with a scolding tongue fierce enough to send the boldest man into a cower. And...she killed his best friend in a shootout. There is absolutely nothing to entice him. Until he realized she is not who she's pretending to be. She's much, much more. He'll risk everything he's fought to keep, and he'll do it for the one thing he thought he never wanted.
Her past is haunting. His present's a threat. Their future, uncertain. Their love? Forever.
This rowdy sequel to Silver Nights With You continues the story of the Kelly brothers in true, western fashion!

Big Sky Eyes
When Mackenna fell in love, it was for the first and last time, but she'd be damned before she ever let the lucky fellow in on it. What began as a beloved summer job in the bewitching Montana mountains grew into an aching heart that spanned her college years as she watched the one man she desired more than anything in the world want every woman but her.
Brent was the first to admit that he was roughshod and rigid because he went through a lot of effort to make himself that way. It was the only way to shield himself from everything he could never have. Then, she walked into his life with the optimism and zest of youth and he couldn't help but cling to everything good in her. An unfailing friend through the bends of life, she was the one person he never felt good enough for, and the only one he could never let go.
