Wild Hope (Wilder Irish Short Story) – August 11
Sometimes the right person finds you in the most unexpected place…
Andi Jennings has spent her life surviving—working three jobs, raising her little brother, and keeping her dreams small. But when she sings at Pat’s Pub, a spark ignites…one that catches the attention of Joel McKenna, a wealthy, serious, workaholic stranger with a hunger he can’t ignore.
From a chance meeting in a 24-hour convenience store to stolen moments in his penthouse, Joel is drawn to Andi in ways he can’t control. Her laughter, her spirit, and that voice that makes him ache awaken something he didn’t know he was missing. Andi fights it, terrified of losing herself, yet she can’t deny the pull between them—the heated glances, the brush of hands, the nights that leave them both breathless.
When desire flares and hearts collide, Andi must decide if she’s ready to risk it all—her carefully measured life, her dreams, and her heart—for a love that’s hotter, deeper, and more irresistible than anything she’s ever known.
This Wilder Irish short story was previously published as part of the Hope and Harmony anthology. This version has been expanded (aka sexed up!).
Return (Stingrays Hockey, book 6) – September 15
His comeback was supposed to be behind the bench—until she put his heart back in play.
Dean Fields thought he’d already played his final hockey period. Forced to retire at twenty-nine after a brutal, career-ending injury, Dean traded skates for a clipboard, grinding his way through assistant coaching jobs across the league. He built a life in the shadows of the game he loved—controlled, disciplined, safe. Because if hockey had taught him anything, it was how quickly everything you want can be taken from you. Coming back to Baltimore as head coach of the Stingrays was supposed to be just another step forward. It wasn’t supposed to bring her back into his life.
Vivian Hale had once been off-limits in every possible way—his teammate’s little sister, too young, too bright, and already falling for someone else. Dean had noticed her anyway. Always. But timing had been cruel, and by the time he understood what he felt, she was gone—married, building a life that had no place for him. Now she’s back too.
Five years a widow, raising her spirited daughter Pip on her own, Vivian has spent long enough grieving the life she lost—and convincing herself it was enough. Love was something she had. Something she buried. Something she wasn’t sure she’d ever risk again. But Dean isn’t the same man she once knew. And she isn’t the girl who watched him from afar.
What starts as familiarity—shared history, old almosts, quiet understanding—quickly turns into something deeper, something impossible to ignore. This time, there are no rules about teammates or timing. Only fear, second chances… and a little girl who might just change everything.
Dean never believed he’d get a shot at the life he once ruled out. Vivian never thought she’d want one again. But sometimes, the hardest thing isn’t moving on—
It’s allowing yourself toreturn.
