Hollyhill Valley
Welcome to Hollyhill Valley, where the flowers bloom with every season—and so do the grumpy men who fall hard for the chaos queens next door.
From sun-drenched summers to cozy winter nights, each story is packed with sizzling chemistry, single-parent sweetness, and happily-ever-afters that grow like wildflowers. These men may be rough around the edges, but once they fall? It’s all in, forever.
Four seasons. Four grumps. Four women who change everything.

The Summer of Sunflowers
Book One
Juniper: Moving to Hollyhill Valley is a fresh start. Nobody to judge me as a single mom, new friends who aren’t connected to my slimy ex, and a new town for me and my son, Tobias, to explore. What I never expected is the broody, long-haired Irishman next door to grow a soft spot for my son. Cody is a thorn in my side, but seems to keep wiggling his way into my heart. But as I slowly fall for him, I can’t help but wonder if this can truly work out. Can our summer love survive the fall? Or will the curse of my ex strike again?
Cody: I was happy living my life along; just me and my dog, Dagda. That was until the new neighbor and her son came crashing into my life... literally. Juniper is a whirlwind of sunshine that I’m not used to. Her son, Tobias, wiggles his way into my heart, winning me over with his hilarious personality and curious wee mind. As I spend more time with the boy, I can’t help but start to fall for his mom. Juniper’s happy-go-lucky attitude is addicting, and I want more than just a friendship with her. As the summer rolls along, she opens up and spills some of her secrets. Can we make this relationship work? Or will this summer love crumble under the pressure of her ex?
He fixes engines. She’s a beautiful mess. Her son brings them together—love does the rest.
