The Ladies of Sweetwater Lake
4 primary works
Book 1
As a firefighter, Joshua Markham was used to taking risks.
So when unexplained fires started disrupting the quiet town of Sweetwater, he was prepared to stop them - whatever it took. What he wasn't prepared for was Darcy O'Brien, the beautiful woman he found trying to save horses as her family's barn smoldered.
After a recent relationship filled with heartache, Joshua wasn't ready for the protective feelings Darcy and her young son evoked in him. Joshua wasn't willing to take risks when it came to love. But he was a man of faith. Could it be mere coincidence that he'd pulled this remarkable woman from a burning barn...and into his life?
Book 2
Young widow Jesse Bradshaw was content to be a loving mother to her son, a devoted granddaughter, a doll maker and the keeper of a gaggle of pets.
She couldn't imagine having anything more in her already crowded life - until jaded Nick Blackburn and his daughter moved in next door. Cindy needed a mother's love, something the wealthy businessman couldn't provide for his precious child.
Jesse tried to use her matchmaking skills to find a suitable wife for the workaholic widower, but what would she do when she realized she was Nick's perfect match?
Book 3
Freedom!
After raising her three siblings, high school teacher Beth Coleman was finally, at thirty-eight, responsible for herself alone. With her nurturing nature, she'd loved caring for her family, but now she could travel, see the world. Her only decision? Where to go. Yet as Beth pondered South America as her first stop, a troubled teen walked into her classroom, and with her, a single dad - a handsome, kind, caring man to boot.
Though Beth tried to deny it, Samuel Morgan and his ready-made family began to win her heart. South America awaited, but so did Samuel...and the new family she wondered if she was willing to risk losing.
Book 5
He came to Sweetwater to repay a debt.
Chance Taylor didn't expect to have feelings for his new landlady, Tanya Bolton. He could see newly widowed Tanya had worked hard to put the pieces of her world back together, caring for her wheelchair-bound daughter and taking a job at the local bank.
Chance's arrival interrupted Tanya's routine…and brought unexpected happiness to her life. But the secret obligation he struggled with meant Chance could lose Tanya – and his chance for a fresh start – forever.
