Stephen will stop at nothing to find a way to keep Rosemary's heart and happiness intact. Snowfall at Catoctin Creek Kevin McRae's high-stress job and city life have him at his absolute limit. Nikki Mercer is dreaming of better things than the diner she inherited from her aunt. Ever since he visited Catoctin Creek with Stephen, Kevin has been dreaming of the country life -- and Nikki's fiery charm. He's ready to leap into a new life, and take her with him. But Nikki doesn't believe her little town is ready for the change she wants, and she's not sure Kevin is prepared for country life, either. Kevin can't help but think it's up to him to spur Nikki towards claiming her dreams. Naturally, Nikki thinks that's pretty presumptuous of him -- but kind and thoughtful, too . . .

She's finally found a job in her hometown, and she's not willing to risk her position at Elmwood Equestrian Center by giving Sean a single inch of ground. But when they are pushed into working on the upcoming horse show together, Nadine finds that there's more to Sean than his expensive riding clothes and lazy demeanor. A lot more, actually.

A rivalry might turn to romance at Elmwood Equestrian Center... Nadine came back to Catoctin Creek without much hope of ever fitting in there. Her goals? Work a steady job as barn manager at Elmwood Equestrian Center, keep an eye on her mom, and keep her head down. Three things which would be easier without the constant annoyance of the riding instructor and her next-door neighbor, Sean. Sean Casey never meant to stay in Catoctin Creek for long. His heart is on the big horse show circuit, along with his friends, and he’s going back on the road as soon as he can. Assuming he ever finds someone with deep enough pockets to fund his dreams. As the riding instructor at Elmwood, he has his pick of rich older women to con into sponsoring him. It’s a task which would go a lot more smoothly if that workhorse Nadine would get off his back. Nadine is counting the days until Sean finally leaves Elmwood; Sean is exasperated with Nadine’s grinding work ethic. Both have been going out of their way to avoid working with each other. So when spring brings the challenge of working together on Rosemary Beckett’s sales horse, they’re surprised to find they aren’t the worst of colleagues, after all . . . and not bad neighbors, either. With an enemies-to-lovers romp through the beautiful small-town setting of Catoctin Creek, a dash of daring horses, and spring in bloom all around, Springtime at Catoctin Creek is a charming, cozy romance perfect for your next lazy-day escape.
A place for horse-people. And a new series for fans of The Eventing Series. In a hidden corner of rural Florida, there’s a place where gleaming horses graze on green pastures, a round pool of clear water shimmers with the brilliance of a blue diamond, and majestic live oaks stretch their tangled branches over an old white cottage. A place where friends gather, children play, and riding skills are honed. A place which feels like a lifetime in the making for the people who have made it their home. This is Briar Hill Farm. This is foaling season. Spring is a time for renewal…and in horse country, it’s a season of late nights, early mornings, and fresh beginnings. At Briar Hill Farm, professional event rider Jules Thornton-Morrison knows a thing or two about starting all over again. But getting back in the saddle after having a child is an emotional battle she can’t fight on her own. Fortunately, Jules has friends at her back. There’s Alex Whitehall, half of a legendary horse-racing duo who is hoping to carve out her own identity with Jules’s help. There’s Kit Parker, accidental eventing prodigy, who is struggling under the weight of her rise to the international competition arena before she was ready to take it all on. And there’s Gigi Whitehall-Wallace, a whirlwind of nervous energy who comes to Florida’s horse country in search of a happy ending she can’t seem to define yet. Together, they can make their dreams a reality — if old rivalries and prejudices don’t split their unlikely group apart. Along with the students, employees, and friends of Briar Hill Farm, these women will come together for one tumultuous spring in horse country. It’s foaling season in Florida, and fresh starts and new lives are spilling into riotous existence.

And Brandon -- is Brandon wearing cowboy boots? Casey thought she could have it all. Now, she can barely keep up. Can a working girl be a horse show girl, too? For everyone who fell in love with Casey and James in the smash hit Grabbing Mane, welcome back to the coastal Florida of beachfront brunches, long trail rides through the sawgrass, and stormy afternoons listening to rain drumming down on the metal barn roof. For every equestrian who has ever tried to balance work and horses, and for every adult who has tried to hang onto a hobby, Flying Dismount is a relatable romp through the tangle of responsibilities and fun we call life. Praise for Grabbing Mane: "Life is too short to be working for the weekend, drudging away doing something you aren't excited about and are now stuck with because you were guided down the sensible path. There is always a spectrum of options. This story encouraged me to get busy searching and doing what I need to do to find my own happy ending. Which will, naturally, include horses in my life." - Katia Hart, Amazon Review "Just a super book. Loved it! The only problem with her books is I don't want them to end! Can't wait for more of Casey and James." - appychicken, Amazon Review "Another great read by my favorite equestrian fiction author! If you'd like to lose yourself in a relatable story about a woman juggling how the primal need for horse time fits into adult career and relationship choices, this book is for you!" - rooie bookworm, Amazon Review
