The Fawn Creek Series

This is my debut series that takes place in the fictional community of Fawn Creek, Kansas. This cozy Hallmark vibes, lots of banter, and everything there is to love (and sometimes loathe) about small town life.

My stories are closed door romances, however there is some profanity.

These books are standalone interconnected novels, so they could be read out of order if you’d like. But, to really meet all the characters I will list them in order here.

When Tyler Burris turned eighteen and left her hometown of Fawn Creek, Kansas, she insisted she would never be back for anything more than a short visit; and for ten years, she held true to that promise.

That is until her long-term boyfriend drops a bomb on their relationship, leaving her blindsided, as well as homeless. With no other choice, Tyler returns home to Fawn Creek with one goal in mind: to get her life back in order and to get back to the city as quickly as possible. Thanks to a pet snake, a displaced rooster, gossipy townsfolk and a run in with a grumpy neighbor, it seems that she would have no problem getting back out of town without looking back. That is, until she finds out that the grumpy neighbor isn’t so bad after all… or is he?

There’s No Place Like Home is a story about realizing your dreams, learning to not settle for less than you deserve, and a reminder that it’s never too late to go back home.

Avery Thompson believed love was out of reach after escaping her controlling ex-fiancé, Cory, whose possessiveness left her both emotionally and physically scarred. But she’s determined to build a better life for herself and her daughter. Even if she has to do it alone.

Encouraged by her friends, Avery dives into a new, and totally unexpected, side hustle as a content creator, in order to gain financial independence. As her online fame starts to take off—with plenty of quirky, laugh-out-loud moments along the way — Avery finds herself unexpectedly falling for Derek, Fawn Creek’s hunky police officer that always has her back.

But when her past traumas rear their ugly head, will she allow them to sabotage the life she’s worked so hard to create?

Dating in a small town is hard. Not falling for your friend’s brother? Even harder.
Madison King is single for the first time since junior high and determined to make the most of it. After a devastating divorce and one regrettably amazing night with her friend’s brother, she’s back home from vacation and ready to focus on what really matters: rediscovering the colorful, confident girl she used to be.

She’s got a plan, starting with everything from a fresh hairstyle to new paint on the walls. There’s only one rule: absolutely no more Bryan Thompson.

She might even go on a date or two… but dating in a town like Fawn Creek? Not exactly the fresh start she imagined. Between nosy neighbors, awkward setups, and walking red flags disguised as eligible bachelors, Madison’s quickly learning that being single in a small town comes with its own set of challenges.

Maybe Madison is destined to be alone after all.

Or maybe her friend’s brother isn’t nearly as off-limits as she thought.

Ever since Ava Montgomery unexpectedly became a single teen mom, she’s had one mission: give her daughter the best life possible.

Between building her business, supporting her daughter, and holding her friendships together, any chance at romance has always taken a back seat.

That is, until Eric Garrison, the local delivery driver, shows up on her porch armed with dad jokes, easy charm, and a smile steamy enough to melt her right onto her doorstep.

What starts as a friendly connection soon becomes something deeper, but falling for a single dad with a tenderhearted little boy wasn’t part of Ava’s carefully planned life. Still, as the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur, she starts to wonder if love has been waiting at her doorstep all along.

Filled with heart, humor, and small-town warmth, Signed, Sealed, Delivered is a story about second chances, unexpected beginnings, and the love that finds you when you stop looking.

Standalone/Novella

Old flames and new beginnings…this holiday season is anything but quiet.

After a very messy divorce, Reagan Miller is starting over in her hometown of Fawn Creek, Kansas, with three kids, a new house, and more chaos than she bargained for. She’s not looking for love or closure, just a quiet Christmas and a fresh start.

But then she runs into Cash Hartwell, her high school sweetheart and the last person she expected to find standing in the pickle aisle at the Fawn Creek Market. It’s been years, but the spark is still there, and so is the past that she thought she left behind.

As old feelings resurface and the past closes in, Reagan realizes some truths don’t stay buried, and second chances can be more complicated than she ever imagined.

Cozy, heartfelt, and full of small-town holiday magic, Back to You is a warm romantic novella about first loves, fresh starts, and second chances.
