She’s Got that Fire

About She’s Got that Fire

He’s a volunteer firefighter, a roofer, and a mountain man hoping for love. She’s a photographer, a videographer, a possible pyromaniac and…She’s got that fire.

Opal is just as precious and fascinating as her namesake. A blue-eyed blonde with curves and attitude, who is completely fixated on her work.

(Even though she might have slight arsonist tendencies.)

She has an incredible eye for detail. Can she tell I’m already obsessed with her? She’s an artist, yet is also a work of art herself… every sweep of her hips and toss of her hair is embedded into my memory.

It can’t be natural to feel this much lust for someone so fast. Although it’s much more than that. These feelings… Brand new and glittering and tangled in my head like a long string of Christmas lights.

Opal doesn’t want to get me in trouble with the VFFT. Doesn’t want to jump into things too fast.

Flames always follow the fuel. The most flammable path. It’s not my fault that our blaze is instantaneous. I know I can be the perfect man for her, and release all of her dreams and desires.

My girl is so full of fire that I know we’ll never die out.

Rescued by the Surly Woodsman

About Rescued by the Surly Woodsman

Be careful out in the woods.
You might run into the love of your life.

What an incredible nature walk… until I end up lost and hurt.

I’m stuck. Helpless.

I think it’s a bear lumbering toward me, but no… this guy is even grumpier. Surly, even. Barrett seems to soften a bit around the edges when he sees that I’m not the average loud, littering tourist.

This handsome older man doesn’t seem to realize he’s so sexy I can hardly breathe. He’s as massive as the mountain, and nearly as quiet. His tree trunk arms feel like my shelter, and his soulful eyes possess a stillness that I find inspirational.

He’s extremely protective. Almost too much. And he definitely wants me.

This wild lust overtakes us both, but it seems too quick to be something everlasting.

Could this gorgeous mountain man truly be obsessed already?

His Assistant After Hours: A forbidden billionaire office romance by Tessa Vale

About His Assistant After Hours: A forbidden billionaire office romance by Tessa Vale

FREE October 17-19!

The office is off-limits. But what happens after hours… isn’t.

His eyes lingered on me a moment longer than necessary. Just long enough to make my skin heat up. He straightened, leaning slightly closer than needed to point at a chart. The faintest brush of his sleeve against mine sent an electric pulse through me.
“Good,” he murmured, then straightened completely and stepped back. “Keep it up.”
And just like that, he was gone.

Lena Hart knows the rules. She’s a dedicated assistant, professional, meticulous—and utterly aware of the line she can’t cross with her boss. Ethan Cross is everything she’s been warned about: brilliant, commanding, and impossibly tempting.
But when late nights, lingering looks, and small moments of closeness start to blur the line between professional and personal, both their carefully structured lives begin to unravel. Every stolen glance, every whispered word after hours pulls them deeper into a connection neither of them can ignore… and neither dares to admit.
With tension building behind closed doors and emotions too intense to ignore, His Assistant After Hours is a sizzling, slow-burn romance that will leave you craving more. Will they follow the rules—or risk it all?

A short, fast-paced novella perfect for readers who love a quick, sizzling escape.

Available in your local Amazon store—search ‘His Assistant After Hours by Tessa Vale.’

Her New Bodyguard: Jackson

About Her New Bodyguard: Jackson

It was supposed to be a simple personal security job. But Ashley was so sexy and innocent that my need to care for her was far more than professional.

She was sunshine and warmth and everything I truly desired. She felt like… home.

Our chemistry was scorching hot. Ashley used any excuse for us to be closer, and I couldn’t keep my distance. I’d never crossed a line with a client before, but keeping Ashley close was the best way to keep her safe and calm.

Until the worst happened. It was up to me to both save her and beg her forgiveness.

I wouldn’t let her father make her fearful anymore. If I could convince Ashley to let me be the man in her life, she would never be afraid again.

Falling For My Husband (Again)

About Falling For My Husband (Again)

When love fades under the weight of ambition, can a broken marriage ever find its way back to forever?

Olivia Carter once believed that love could withstand anything — even the long nights and silences that crept into her marriage to Ethan, a brilliant but workaholic doctor. Years of loneliness, forgotten promises, and emotional distance finally drive her to walk away, signing the papers that end their union. But just when she finds the strength to move on, a sudden car accident changes everything — and erases pieces of her memory, including the pain that tore them apart.

Ethan, consumed by guilt and desperate for redemption, sees her amnesia as an unexpected second chance — a divine opportunity to right his wrongs and love her better this time. Determined to prove he’s changed, he begins courting her all over again, rekindling the spark that once bound them. Flowers, letters, and quiet gestures become his language of devotion as Olivia slowly rediscovers the man she married — and the woman she once was.

Yet as fragments of the past return, so do the wounds. Secrets about betrayal, infertility, and trust resurface, threatening to shatter their fragile reconciliation. Torn between her heart’s yearning and her mind’s caution, Olivia must decide whether love deserves another chance — or if some chapters are meant to stay closed.

From heartbreak to healing, from separation to renewal, Falling for My Husband (Again) is a tender, emotionally charged tale of second chances, faith, and the enduring power of love. Through Ethan and Olivia’s journey, the novel reminds us that love isn’t just about falling in love – it’s about choosing each other again, even after everything falls apart.

The story comes full circle in Rome, where their daughter Beatriz, their miracle and symbol of redemption, is baptized beneath the ringing bells of hope — a testament that love, when reborn, can be stronger than before.

About Hey, You’re Mine

“Hey, You’re Mine” is a novel about Lucy, a career-driven woman who has just ended a relationship with her boyfriend, Mike, who complained she was “too driven” and put her job first. At a friend’s engagement party, she learns to lean on her friends, Zoey and Jessica, for support.

Fearing the loss of her career, Lucy ends things with Evan, but is miserable and second-guesses her decision. She realizes that her ambition is not a crime, but a part of who she is, and she deserves someone who celebrates her. Evan, meanwhile, refuses to lie about their relationship and tells his manager, Hyun, that he’d rather lose his endorsements than lose Lucy.

In the end, they choose each other, and Lucy realizes that she wants to build a life and a family with him, proving that she doesn’t have to choose between her love and her career.

The Lumberjack’s Quirky Girl

About The Lumberjack’s Quirky Girl

I probably shouldn’t have ogled Braden Oakley’s big axe.
Oops.

The four Oakley brothers coming back to town is something no one expected. But the biggest shock of all is Braden Oakley—all six-foot-four of pure sex—asking me out three whole minutes after we meet.

Tall as a redwood and built like a moose, the devastatingly gorgeous lumberjack should have nothing in common with little miss artsy-pants—aka, me. Especially when his close-knit family likely expects him to date a certain type of girl—namely, the opposite of yours truly.

So how come the harder I try to stay away, the more I end up wrapped up in his muscled arms begging for more of his hard…wood?

Everyone talks about trees falling in the forest with no one around to hear them. But what about my heart?

I should be sensible for once, and stay away from Braden. The heat between us is hot enough to start a forest fire.

And if I don’t watch out, we’re both going to get burned.
