Book 1

Innkeeper's Daughter

by Marie Ferrarella

Published 1 January 2013

From foes to friends to…forever?

Screenwriter Wyatt Taylor can't let his dying father's work on a book about century–old Ladera Inn by the Sea come to naught, even if fulfilling that promise means going toe–to–toe with the innkeeper's spitfire daughter. His history with Alexandra Roman dates back to a competitive childhood rivalry, so he expects more of the same animosity. He must really be grieving to be caught off guard by Alex's beauty and compassion.

For Alex's part, working with Wyatt is unfamiliar territory. The sooner she helps him realize his father's dream the sooner he'll be on his way and she can get back to caring for her family. Yet all it takes is one unexpected kiss to teach her that sometimes change can be for the better. Much better.

Saving Home

by Marie Ferrarella

Published 1 January 2015

There's more than the inn at stake...

Logan MacArthur had to have grown up under a rock. Was anyone really that cold-blooded? Sure, Andy-the youngest Roman daughter-understood that attorneys had to be detached and analytical, but Logan took it to a whole new level. How could she make him see that acquiring her family's beloved inn for his client-the State of California!-was so much more than just a real estate transaction?

She had only a few days, with Logan marooned by torrential rains at Ladera by the Sea, to figure out if he actually had a heart, and if she could thaw it just enough. For her family's future. And maybe for hers...
