Gilded Artist (Golden Era Series Standalone)
Age is just a number, and this silver fox I’m falling for is a wild, boundary-breaking beast…
When another failed relationship sends me cruising through life with nothing more than a latte in my hand and a broken heart in my chest, I know it’s time to make some tough decisions. But choosing which direction to go at crossroads like these has never been my forte. Then I clumsily spill the only thing keeping me together on the sexiest silver fox I’ve ever seen.
Alex Cross is much older than me, sure, but our connection is undeniable. Like magnets drawn together by the invisible strength of their polarity, we can’t stay away from each other. Is it possible that love at first sight is a real thing? I’m not sure it matters since ignoring whatever is happening between us is downright impossible.
As we explore the small town, Braeden Creek, and each other, it seems things are too good to be true. But our passion and pleasure are quickly tempered by the strangest occurrences. Flowers from my flower shop vanish, Alex’s blueprints disappear, and soon it becomes obvious that a shadowy stalker is on my tail.
Can I trust my heart, and my life, in Alex’s hands? Or will a madman’s obsession ruin the best thing that’s ever happened to either of us?
New Year, New Neighbor
New York City has always been my home. I love the energy, the endless possibilities, the way it buzzes with life. But since losing my best friend Ellen, the city feels hollow. I’ve been throwing myself into Soulscape Retreats, curating transformative, creative adventures for others, hoping it might fill the void.
Jet-lagged from my flight from Paris and fumbling with someone else’s keys, I realized I’d accidentally taken my neighbor Remi’s spare on my trip. Lucky for me, Remi’s halfway around the world on tour with his band, and his apartment is empty
Or so I thought.
I entered my neighbor’s apartment and came face-to-face with Paxton Hardy, fresh from the shower, all six-foot-four of rugged handsomeness wrapped in nothing but a towel.
Awkward. Electrifying. Unforgettably embarrassing.
I hoped that would be the end of it. Except the next day, Paxton walked into my office for a consultation, his eco-retreat vision aligning perfectly with my adventurous spirit.
Working together is exhilarating, and every moment we spend brainstorming ideas only makes our chemistry more impossible to ignore. Maybe the New Year is about more than new beginnings. Maybe it’s about taking the leap into the unknown for a love you never saw coming.
