Being a nice guy doesn’t mean he’s boring or ordinary...

Landon Turner puts everyone else first and has dedicated his life to caring for his quadriplegic brother and working his butt off at his full-time job.

There's nothing glamorous about his existence,

but all that might change when he meets a woman

who makes him realize how much he's sacrificed.

And then he gets the opportunity of a lifetime--

to try out for his hometown city's pro hockey team.

Landon doesn't know if happily-ever-after exists,

but in a city like Red Valley, anything can happen...

Colton & Avery's Summer Romance ♥ Island Ice

He was handsome.

So what?

Judging from the smirk on his face, he thought so too.

He blinked and let the smile upturn his mouth, if only out of spite. "Then it's a good thing I don't work for you."

His sexy voice rumbled over the two syllables of her name, making her want to either punch him in the gut or tackle him on the sand and kiss him until he stopped smirking at her...

Although part of the Razors Ice Series,

Island Ice can be read as a stand-alone.

Book Couple Goals ♥ Logan & Kate

There was definitely love to be found.

And maybe, just maybe, she'd be lucky enough to

find it in her little corner of the universe...

No matter how delicious he smelled or how much he sped up her heartbeat,

Kate had a job to do...

Those were the last words she expected to come out of his mouth. Hadn’t he just come back into town?

Her brow furrowed. “Leave town?”

“Yeah.” He closed the distance between them and rested his hands on her shoulders. “I want to take you to Cabo.”

Although part of the Razors Ice Series,

Blind Ice can be read as a stand-alone.

There are so many to choose from!

Hope is now stronger than my fear...

After over a year of quarantine, I finally left my house to receive my first vaccine shot. (Thankfully, hubby and I were able to make appointments together and my first excursion into the great outdoors wasn't by myself.)

How strange it was to put shoes on! And, after 54+ weeks of wearing only my “comfy” clothes, (surprise!) my jeans miraculously still fit! I emerged from my house like a newborn giraffe, my legs wobbly, my eyes wide with wonder.

The world outside my little bubble is fast-moving. Cars whizz by in a hurry to make the next stoplight, strangers walk by each other on the street (without wearing a mask). A group of people is gathered around a kiosk offering free cell phones (to my horror, none were wearing masks either). I'm quickly reminded of why I've chosen to stay home and not take any risks. I'm thankful I've had the luxury. 

Signs of spring are everywhere. There are little pops of yellow and purple wildflowers growing along the street and between cracks in the sidewalk. The sun seems a lot brighter when it's not being filtered through my windows. Life goes on the same way it has been for the last year while I’ve been indoors. 

I am shaky and unsure, nervous and anxious, but I am finally making the first step toward what I hope will be a somewhat normal life again.

There's the word that has been eluding me.

Hope.

For the first time in over a year, I feel hope. It's a strange sensation this feeling of being able to see beyond my four walls. To venture beyond my imagination again. I like it. I’m encouraged by it.

And inspired for the first time in a long, long while...
