Love in Brazen Bay Series

When grumpy firefighter Leo finally answers the wrong number text he's been getting for several days, he has no idea pixels on a screen could be so hot - or make him want things he's never wanted before. Dixie has always been quiet, shy, and reserved. Until she "meets" Leo. He's got the once shy librarian shedding her inhibitions and growing her confidence in their texts and calls - and it even starts spilling out into her everyday life. Part of her revels in her secret life - but part of her secretly wishes for more.

After being taken to the cleaners by her embezzling bigamist husband, socially awkward academic Tru Stanhope finds herself with one remaining asset: a dive bar in the podunk town of Brazen Bay. Well, half a bar. The other half is owned by the infuriatingly hot Nash McKendrick. He doesn't want to sell, and he really doesn't want his once-silent business partner to have anything to do with his one true love: the pub.

What would you do if the boyfriend you totally made up to get your sister off your back showed up at your place of employment? Free-spirited Stella Stone has always been the wild child in her family, but even she is surprised at the amount of trouble she's found herself in this time. Now she somehow has to keep the uptight, tie-wearing, self-contained Christopher from figuring out that the whole town thinks they are dating, and somehow also keep the whole town from figuring out she's a pathetic liar with a fake boyfriend.

After ten long months away on a dig, archaeology professor Dr. Nick Sanders comes home to Brazen Bay, surprised to find that his house is still standing since he left his irresponsible younger brother in charge. Tired, dirty, and hungry, he collapses into bed sans pajamas, only to wake up wrapped around a luscious, fuming woman. She says she’s just the house sitter and that he pulled her into bed when she was trying to wake him up. He says he’s just found his future wife.
