Hi, I'm Rose.

My heroines run things. A bakery, a coffee shop, a bookstore, an inn that's one bad season from the bank. They're good at carrying the load alone, and they have their reasons.

My heroes are cinnamon rolls. Some of them are grumpy about it, and a few would rather hide in a back room than talk. Every one of them is devoted, steady, and safe to fall for. Nobody in my books gets loved by being bossed around.

The towns matter as much as the couples. You'll get to know the diner owner who hears everything, the neighbors who meddle, and the friends from the last book who show up to help carry a couch. Each book stands alone with a happily ever after, and together they add up to one town you'll want to move to.

Where to start

If you'd like a taste first, grab The Whole Trick free. It's the love story of Mags, the woman the whole town is built around. Ready for a full book? Start with Proof of Us.
