If it wasn’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any luck at all.

That saying is as old as the hills in Tennessee, where I used to live.


And it’s definitely true.


I’m a bad luck magnet, at least when it comes to men.

Moving to Stone Lake was supposed to be a fresh start.

Here, I was going to build a life I could be proud of. Finally put down roots and live quietly.

Be safe and happy.


It didn’t quite work out that way, but I’m stubborn and I’m not about to give up.

Ben Kingston was the first man to handle me with care.

He gave me a glimpse of something I desperately wanted.

And then, tore it away from me with the carelessness of one whispered word.


I don’t need a man to complete me.

In fact, I’ve had enough of them.

I’m okay with being single the rest of my life.

I’ll be just fine with my handy friend B.O.B.


Except Ben keeps coming around, tempting me and a girl can only take so much.

Ben’s out to prove I can trust him. I don’t trust any man, not anymore.


But my resolve weakens when he touches me, slides his hand down and proves buying stock in batteries might not be a good life plan.

Welcome back to the world of Stone Lake.

Junie and Ben have a bumpy start for sure, but when trouble comes knocking on Junie’s door, will she let Sheriff Kingston prove he won’t let her down again?

Complete Standalone Romance

Wow ! What a great story as we totally loved the characters and could not help but fall in love with all of them.This current story was a gripping emotional tale that had us engrossed into the pages to the very end.

Junie was a character that was smart and beautiful and independent but, she was an emotional wreck who was filled with a lot of demons that she was working on getting rid of but, it made things difficult in her relationship with Ben where it was almost felt like a push and pull thing but, thank god Ben for the most part was a patient and understanding man which was a really hard thing to do as he was always in total alpha mode .

Ben -We loved the sexy as sin sheriff who was a total alpha and sex on a stick but, one of his most enduring qualities was that he was that he could turn the alpha off when Junie was in crisis mode and give her what she needed or at least tried to.He was sweet, kind and loving and protective.

Overall this story was filled with a lot of ups and downs a ton of emotion but, it was also filled with so much love and understanding and a whole lot of explosive chemistry that made for a lot of hot a sexy sex scenes that had a girl fanning herself.The story also gave us a few laughs a time or two because it was hard not to love Junie as she funny and bright and beautiful on the inside and out and everyone loved her including us.

We just loved it and the more books we read my this author the more we fall in love with her works.This one definitely goes into the keeper pile.

Excerpt

“That was a mistake,” I tell him. “I’m just not ready to have a man in my life,” I sternly express to him, and I have to wonder if he can hear the panic edged at the back of my voice.

“You’re a woman who screams sex, Junie. Do you really think you can go through life without enjoying that in your life?”

“I scream sex?” I repeat, feeling like I just swallowed my tongue.

“Oh, yeah, more than anyone I have ever met.”
“You’re wrong,” I deny.
“It’s been a year, Junie, but I haven’t forgotten a moment of our time together.”
“That was a lifetime ago. I’m a different person now. I have a new life plan.”
“A life plan?”
“Yeah. I just decided on it tonight,” I tell him and that’s not a lie. I decided on it right this minute, and I’m going to stick to it.
“What is this life plan, Junie?” he asks, and his dark eyes hold a humor in them that I shouldn’t like, but I do—even if they are freaking me out.
“I’m buying stock in batteries.”

“Batteries?”

“Definitely. The only man I can handle in my life is Bob.”

“Bob.” For a minute he looks confused and then he starts laughing. His laughter warms me, chasing away the last remnants of the fear I felt earlier.

“Oh, Junie. You’re in trouble now.”

“I am?”

“Definitely,” he says, but he gets up and starts walking to the door. I follow him like I’m in a trance.

“Why am I in trouble, Sheriff?”

“Because I always did like a challenge, and now, I’m going to feel compelled to remind you that your vibrator can’t compare to what I can do to your body.” He opens the door and casts me one last glance. “Make sure you lock this door, Baby. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Where We Began

There are moments in life when a good thing comes along at the wrong time.

Juniper Sellers definitely fits that description.

I’m not ready for her, but damn do I want her.

She’s a beautiful bird with a broken wing and that spells nothing but trouble.

I’m not strong enough to walk away. I should, because I’m as broken as her.


She’s fire and sass.

I’m a moth drawn to her flame.


It’s a toss up which one of us will get burned first.


This novella is a prequel story to Before We Fall. No prior books needs to be read to understand this story.

Complete Standalone Romance

“I heard you bought this place. I guess that means you’re sticking around,” Ben says, once he shuts his bike down.

“I guess that’s what it means,” I respond, keeping any hurt or anger I might still feel out of my voice.

Never show weakness to those that hurt you, I can’t forget that rule.

“You’ve been dodging my calls, Junie.”

I look at Ben, his eyes hid from me by his sunglasses. I hate that he still looks so good. There should be a law that when a man hurts you he should turn ugly as a mud fence overnight.

“No, I haven’t.”

“I’ve been calling you and you haven’t been answering,” he says, his arms crossed at his chest as he leans back on his bike.

“I know. But I haven’t been answering them, because I don’t have anything to say.”

“I’ve been trying to apologize, but every time I see you out, you disappear before I can talk to you.”

“Merely a coincidence,” I respond with a shrug.

“And the not answering my phone calls?”

“Sheriff, I appreciate the gesture and the messages, but honestly, we don’t have anything to say to one another.”

“Junie—”

“June. My family call me Junie, Sheriff. You and I are just… acquaintances.”

“Damn it, I know I fucked up, but if you would just let me explain—”

“There’s nothing to explain. You and I are both broken. I just didn’t realize yours. You were trying to force yourself to heal with me, when the woman you really wanted was out of reach and I was just using you to try and not feel at all.”

“Is that the way you want to play this, Juniper?”

“I’m not playing anything, Sheriff. I’m just stating the facts.”
