I have certainly dropped several balls in keeping everyone updated on my participation in the upcoming Love in the Lowcountry anthology. (Can I blame the ducks that refuse to stay in rows? I’m not sure all of them are even mine at this point.)

Anyway, y’all may remember my sadness at not being able to participate in this anthology because I just could NOT wrap my head around the story I wanted to tell. The draft just wasn’t drafting. But the amazing Powers That Be gave me extension after extension and granted me all the grace in the world. FINALLY, I was able to get the draft done.

Now, several months and rounds of critiques and edits later, we are only weeks away from the release of LOVE IN THE LOWCOUNTRY: A VACATIONS COLLECTION.

The release date is officially March 7th, but logistics of the release are still a little in flux. As soon as I have finalized details and preorder info, I will share it.

In the meantime, we are still welcoming ARC readers, so if you’re interested, you can sign up here.

Now to the fun part…. some details on my story!

Forever After at the Ever Rest Inn

Disillusioned with his career and reeling from a breakup, Max Andersen heads to a Lowcountry bed and breakfast near Georgetown, South Carolina, for time away to relax and determine the next steps in his life.

The Ever Rest Inn isn’t only a bed and breakfast. It’s Vivian Ravanelle’s family legacy. She’s inherited more than just the property. The inn comes with financial problems that must be solved if she doesn’t want to lose everything.

Vivi never forgot the boy who helped her overcome a lonely summer twenty-two years ago. But the boy has become a man—a handsome one who seems to reciprocate a new attraction. During Max’s stay, the two share more than family stories and personal problems. Perhaps Max’s next steps are tied to Vivi, who may find not only hope for the inn’s future, but happiness and love.

Stay tuned for more updates!
