Stories made for a day off: easy to fall into, a pleasure to come back to, and the kind of page-turner that leaves you feeling better than when you started.
Small-town romantic suspense on the Oregon coast
Heart’s Cove is the kind of Oregon coast town where everyone knows your business and nobody tells the truth about it. Each book follows a new couple pulling at an old case the town would rather leave buried, with a slow-burning romance and a hard-won happy ending.
