Will secrets from her past threaten the future they both long for?

Single dad West Lawrence never wanted anything more than what he has right now—a beautiful home on the dairy farm with his family, a thriving small town medical practice by the park, and a precocious four-year-old daughter who keeps him on his toes.

When the young doctor is called to the local mechanic shop to check on a mysterious stranger, he doesn’t expect that the stranger will be a beautiful woman. And he never dreams that her sudden presence will not only show him how lonely he’s been, but how much he has secretly wondered if little Elizabeth really needs a mom.

All Dulcie has ever wanted for Christmas was a place to call home and people to love. So when she finds herself stranded for the holidays with an achingly gorgeous doctor and his adorable daughter, in a small town so charming it looks like something out of a movie, she’s ready to hold on with both hands to all the goodness the universe is offering—even if it’s only temporary.

But just when it starts to feel like they might be meant for each other, a secret from Dulcie’s past threatens to tear it all apart. Can their hope for happiness survive these inescapable truths?


REVIEW: SWEET HOME (SUGARVILLE GROVE: A SMALL TOWN CHRISTMAS ROMANCE) BY CLARA PINES

Sweet Home (A Small Town Christmas Romance): Sugarville Grove - Book 5
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Pines throws caution to the wind and leads with her heart. Sweet Home puts feelings on full display. From the uncertainty of life to the heartache of love, West and Dulcie hold nothing back.







CHRISTMAS TREASURES



He’s known as the Hayes brother who will never settle. She’s the reserved small town shop owner everyone loves but no one truly knows. Will the spirit of Christmas mend their broken places and open their hearts to holiday magic?

In cozy Sugarville Grove, Charlie Keene has quietly built a life—running a pizzeria in honor of the father she lost and carefully hiding her tech-world fortune. Despite the season’s festive cheer, her windows remain bare of decorations, a painful reminder of a Christmas past she can’t forget.

Max Hayes, the free-spirited adventurer of the family, finally wants roots. Buying the town’s country store has given him just that—and a front-row seat to Charlie’s bittersweet smile. She’s beautiful and brilliant, yet something about her lonely gaze stirs a protective warmth in his wandering heart.

When they team up on a mission to feed those in need, sparks fly along with pizza dough. But as feelings deepen, Charlie’s painful history and Max’s fear of surrendering his freedom threaten to tear them apart.

Can two wary hearts learn to trust again under Sugarville Grove’s twinkling lights? Or will old wounds keep them from a Christmas love that could be the greatest gift of all?

TEASER ALERT





FINDING YOU (THE DONOVANS: SWEETBRIAR RIDGE) BY SAMANTHA CHASE


"Finding You is a crossroads of the heart.  Chase blends strength of character and a vulnerability of spirit that stirs up deep feelings. With raw honesty and food for thought, temptation  is only a page turn away." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)



Release Date: June 17, 2025






He's trying to figure out his future.

She's running from her past.


Devin Maxwell has made automotive repairs his life. Being the lone mechanic in Sweetbriar Ridge hasn’t left him with a whole lot of free time and up until now, he hasn’t minded. But now that the business is finally solid, he decides to take a weekend just for himself to try and figure out what his next big thing in life should be. He never expected the answer to be found on the side of the highway…


All MacKenzie Holland wanted was the chance to live the life she wanted without dealing with other people’s expectations. That’s what had spurred her last-minute cross-country trip. Well, that and a cheating ex. If only her car had cooperated. Stranded on the side of the road left her feeling as if her great adventure was over before it had even begun.


Devin getting the car back to Sweetbriar Ridge was easy. Getting it fixed? That was going to take some time. With a town festival set to begin and a shortage of hotel rooms, MacKenzie finds herself not only relying on Devin to get her car back on the road, but also for a place to stay and a job. And the longer she stays, the more she becomes drawn to the sweet little mountain town, and Devin.


Getting stranded on the side of the road seemed like the worst thing that could happen. Little did she know, it was really just the beginning of her greatest adventure yet.

FINDING YOU was previously released as an audio exclusive in 2024, and this story takes place between The Donovans of Sweetbriar Ridge books two and three. Enjoy!!

Narrated by Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder




Release Date: June 9, 2025





He left me with a note.

Weston Caldwell and I had two months together. Two months of intense heat and plans for our future. Then one day he left me sleeping with a note and never turned back. I closed off my heart and my dreams after he left and promised to take care of my family, never trusting love again.

So when I am forced to head to my family’s small town for protection, I never expect to turn around and see the man I loved.

I want to walk away and never look back, but when I find out he left for a heartbreaking reason, I’m not sure what to think. The chemistry between us hasn’t gone away—if anything it burns even brighter.

But my life is in the city and his is in this small town that draws me. Between his siblings, the town itself, and my new found family, walking away might break me.

Only Weston isn’t the only secret from my past. And it turns out, if Weston and I aren’t careful, we could lose everything before we find our second chance.

An Unexpected Everything is a second chance, right person, wrong time, single “dad”, contemporary romantic suspense in the Cage Family series featuring Weston and Isabella. Each book can be listened to as a complete standalone. An HEA is guaranteed!**

WISTFUL WHISPERS (CHARMING IRISH) BY KAYLENE WINTER


"....a tempting heartache that dares to expose it's soul. Spicy romance that manages to get under your skin and capture your heart." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)


#SeriesAlert





Release Date: June 9, 2025


I never promised forever.
A good time? Absolutely.
Heartbreak? Only if they got too attached.

My reputation as a quiet playboy precedes me—women talk, and my ‘talents’ follow me wherever I go. But I’ve always been upfront. No commitments. No expectations. No complications.

Marcella Delgado is nothing but complications. Brilliant. Fierce. Eight years older. And the attorney trying to take down my boss in a malpractice case. She should hate me on sight—hell, she does. But that doesn’t stop the heat between us from igniting the moment we meet.

She’s heard the stories about me firsthand, right there in the depositions. She knows exactly what I’m good at, and even though she fights it, I can see the temptation in her eyes.

When her case falls apart, I should walk away. Instead, I check on her. And when she finally lets go—just once—I give her everything she’s never had.

She calls it a mistake. I call it the beginning.

Because for the first time in my life, I want more. And I don’t care what I have to do to convince Marcella that this is worth the risk.
