The Hearthstone Novels: Books 1 to 3 E-BOOK

Three full length eco-thriller romance novels largely inspired by the author's previous careers as an archaeologist and Indigenous Knowledge study facilitator.

Each stand-alone and self-contained book is connected to the Tanner family and includes significant elements of the outdoors and natural environment.

KISS ME IN THE RAIN

Can you ever truly reconcile your past without losing yourself or your future?

Savannah McIntyre is estranged from her family and haunted by the destruction that her father's development business has visited upon the landscape that she loves. When a family wedding calls her home, the hope of reconnecting with her dad surfaces, putting her directly in the path of Gabe Tanner, an archeologist on her father's payroll. Gabe is estranged from his own father, and in him Savannah senses a man of immense compassion with a deep connection to the land, and differing ideologies.

WILD NOT BROKEN

What if everything you ever wanted was nothing you could have ever expected?

Lillian Morgan is a disgraced British war correspondent. Scotland Yard has cleared her of all treason charges, but her career didn't survive being duped by a double-agent. The rediscovery of a family heirloom, a New World fur trade journal from the eighteenth century, gives Lillian a story to chase while she tries to pick up the pieces of her life.

Colt Tanner is a world champion bull rider, old enough to know his time on the circuit is coming to a close, but too skittish to settle down anywhere. He likes life one adrenaline high after another, never stopping long enough to feel anything. But a career-ending injury has left him with time to notice there are unanswered questions about his family that are starting to pile up.

A week in the wilderness to write an eco-inn's marketing material is not Lillian's idea of professional glory, but her job prospects are limited. She needs a guide and Colt's schedule is now wide open. Sparks and bullets fly when these two stumble into deadly family secrets and international spies holding grudges. Will they find what they're looking for, or die trying? It's MI6 meets the Rocky Mountains…with heat.

NOT AN EASY TRUCE

What if the one person you are trying to forget was your heart's deepest desire?

Becca Tanner is determined to make her dude ranch inn nestled in the foothills of the Canadian Rocky Mountains open on time and be a success. Nowhere in her business plan did she pencil in time for arms dealers and drug runners, manipulating fathers, or sparring matches with her one-sided, decade-long crush, Officer Jason Chasseur. She invested everything she had and more that she didn't into her dream and she'll go down swinging before giving up on herself or those counting on her.

RCMP Officer Jason Chasseur doesn't believe for a second Becca Tanner didn't know her father pushed him out of the chance to buy back his family's ancestral land. That sparks fly whenever she's near is irrelevant. When the land in question turns out to be an active criminal base-camp and Becca is forcefully recruited, he knows she is in way over her head.

As the time ticks down to opening weekend, family secrets send them headlong into each new threat. Can they trust each other long enough to help a broken criminal family heal and finally accept the love that has always been between them?
