Book Description
A suspense and action-packed mystery series with a touch of romance. Ryan’s Ruin – First in the Clear Creek Series To say that Ryan Maxwell has woman troubles is an understatement. He has women ruining his life at every turn. His two older sisters are trying to control his life. His energetic niece is too much for him to handle. A local woman wants to marry him. And yet another woman is trying to destroy his business. And all Ryan wants to do is to be left alone, run his café, fish, hunt, and play poker with his bachelor buddies one night a week. Is that too much to ask? Candy O’Reilly just wants to start a new life away from relatives who are interfering and controlling her whole life. Will a move 350 miles away be the right thing? Will her children be able to adjust from city life to small town life? Will Candy be able to realize her dream of owning a pastry and specialty coffee shop? Will the house she bought be the right one instead of a nightmare? Two men just released from prison want the money they say is hidden in Candy’s house. A spurned woman starts rumors that cause Candy to lose business and even think about moving back to the city. If these two who are so drastically different come together, can they help each other through a tragedy which threatens them from an unexpected source? How will God work in the lives of these two and their families in Clear Creek? Chase’s Return – Second in the Clear Creek Series Chase Devereaux turned away from God when he lost his wife to cancer two years ago. Now he’s trying to be both father and mother to his teenage sons.

Chase seems to come out of his fog and notice Tiffany. But how can he do anything about it since he’s her boss? One of his teachers has accused him of sexual harassment. With that charge looming over him, he turns to his best friends Hunter and Ryan for advice and support. Tiffany finally realizes that she is attracted to her principal but she doesn’t know what to do about it. Then her mother is diagnosed with breast cancer. She turns to her best friends Sabrina and Candy who comfort and encourage her with their prayers. Everything else goes on hold as murders begin to happen in this peaceful little town and Tiffany suddenly becomes the prime suspect. Is their faith in God strong enough to bring Chase and Tiffany together among all the chaos and keep each other safe in the process? Can Chase ever return to the man he was before? Hunter’s Revenge – Third in the Clear Creek Series As police chief of Clear Creek, Hunter Billingsley hasn’t had much of a family or social life since his wife divorced him fifteen years ago and moved to another state, taking their baby girl with her. Hunter would like revenge against his ex-wife for making his sixteen-year-old daughter think he is a mean person who doesn’t want her around him. On top of that, Karrie is involved with a group of kids who are getting her into trouble. How can he help her from so far away? His life is turned upside down when Karrie hitchhikes almost three-hundred miles to be with him but doesn’t really want to be with him. Then, as if that wasn’t enough, someone is out to kill him.

Reggie Thornton along with her younger brothers, Blake and Kirby, own a ranch in Bear Creek. In order to pay for the expansion of their herd, they have started a hunting guide service. Most of these clients/hunters want to hunt bear or mountain lion. Chip Green moved to Bear Greek twenty years ago when his father was transferred to the ranger station there. Chip left the valley to go to the police academy and returned to Bear Creek as their deputy five years ago. Chip has always liked Reggie so much that she basically ruined him for other women. But he’s afraid to get close to her since she’d probably punch him if he tried. Reggie is feeling lonely in her big home built for five people now that both of her younger brothers are married and living in their own homes next to hers on the ranch. Reggie wants a family too! But, who would want to marry her, a six foot, thirty-year-old tomboy? Reggie has always liked Chip so much that he basically ruined her for other men. But the fool just can’t see that she likes him. When Chip is suddenly given custody of the nine-year-old daughter he didn’t even know he had, things really get complicated. His efficiency apartment won’t work so Reggie takes them both in at her four-bedroom house. Then Reggie starts helping Chip and Megan come together. A Hollywood production company comes to make a movie at the Thornton ranch and at the old ghost town in the mountains above Bear Creek. Someone doesn’t want the movie people there and things start happening to drive them away, including bar fights, fires and even murder. Chip has to win Megan over and learn how to be a father to her, while living in the same house with Reggie. Sparks will fly all the way around when these three very different people are thrown together. Will Chip and Reggie be able to resolve the problems facing the movie production company and the Thorntons and still keep everyone safe in the process? Will there be any hope for Reggie and Chip to build a relationship?
