Book Description
"I don’t think I’m in the wrong place at the wrong time right now. I think I’m exactly where I should be." When is it time to institute a no-dating rule? For hair stylist Violet Demetri that time comes when she realizes she’s on a date with her brother. Okay, okay. Not a real date, but it feels that way while she sits next to him at a Drei concert. Her brother bought the tickets to Violet’s favorite band for her birthday, and of course she’s incredibly grateful to her favorite family member—the only family member to ever give a crap about her. It would have been nice to have an actual date to the show though. All Violet seems to do these days in the world of dating is make colossal mistakes. The no-dating rule commences now. When the spotlight hits Dawson Kingsford, cellist for Drei, giving up dating seems like a shame. He’s as beautiful as his music, and Violet is enchanted as is every other person in that packed theater. Fantasizing about a famous, talented musician like Dawson noticing her is ridiculous. He is up on the stage, and she is just another face in the crowd. Worlds apart really. Until those worlds collide. Literally. Is one kind note enough to make a love song that will last a lifetime? One Kind Note is a meeting-a-famous-person, small-town, contemporary romance that features a sweet, parrot-owning heroine and a musician hero looking for more than adoring fans. The One Kind Deed Series, contemporary romance "I want to live in this town! The characters were so real!" Other Series by Christine DePetrillo The Maple Leaf Series, contemporary romance (6 books) "Fears, pride, love, passion ~ beautifully woven together with substance and depth." The Shielded Series, sci-fi romance (3 books) "Great world-building, excellent emotional depth, and a great ending..." The Warrior Wolves Series, paranormal romance (5 books) "Full of memorable characters with a solid plot and plenty of passion."

Book Description
Leah had a plan in place for this new phase of her life and she’d stick to it. Over six feet of Dakota Brenton wasn’t going to change that. Teaching fourth grade at Maplehaven Elementary School deep in the woods of Vermont is Leah Greenstead’s chance to hide and heal. It hurt too much to stay in New York City where every corner café, every friend, every sunrise reminded her of all she’d lost. Some people get to have everything they’ve ever wanted. Some don’t. Leah will stick to her rules about not getting close to anyone—about not falling in love again—and preserve what little is left of her heart. Except Dakota Brenton sets his sights on Leah. Maplehaven’s most beloved adventure guide isn’t easy to resist either. And he knows it. He uses his sense of humor, his charming family, and mathematical dirty talk to make it difficult for Leah to ignore him. Letting him in, however, is a big risk. If she dates him, she might like him. If she likes him, she might love him. If she loves him… she might lose him. Is one kind heart enough to change Leah’s mind about love? One Kind Heart is an opposites-attract, small-town, contemporary romance that features a heroine not willing to risk her heart and a hero not willing to give up on her.

Book Description
What would someone accustomed to the glamour of Hollywood and the bustle of New York think about tiny, simple Maplehaven? Charlene Moyen isn’t looking for a nice guy. With her teasing barbs and badass chopper pilot skills, she needs someone who won’t flinch every time she unleashes her quick wit and daredevil instincts. Unfortunately, Charlie’s small hometown doesn’t have any guys like that. It’s probably for the best. Her parents’ relationship hasn’t provided a rock-solid example of what love is. She wouldn’t even know how to be someone’s true other half. Charlie is an expert at maneuvering her helicopter though. When an opportunity to feature her chopper in a movie being shot locally arises, she enters her name. She never expects to be filming with her favorite action-adventure actor, Austin Rayhill. Austin is surprised as well. He thought having a female pilot in the movie would be a good marketing move, but Charlie proves to be so much more than that. She pulls him out of his Hollywood world and gives him the dose of reality he needs. After Charlie lends a hand to Austin during an accident on set, the off-screen chemistry between them soars. Until Charlie’s extreme flying pokes at the one thing Austin fears most. Is one kind hand enough to bridge two worlds? One Kind Hand is a meeting-your-movie-star-crush, small-town, contemporary romance that features a tomboy heroine and a famous, big-screen hero who have more in common than they realize.

Book Description
Christian probably attracted the attention of supermodels. Nicole was no supermodel. She isn’t enough. She isn’t worthy. No one will ever want her. Nicole Travers believes this to her core. Her older sister made sure to remind Nicole of these truths on a daily basis when they were kids. Now, many years later, her sister’s voice still rings in her ears every time a guy catches her eye. She’s better off focusing on waitressing and tending bar. At least she knows how to do those two things. Attracting a soul mate? Forget it. Although watching her best friend meet her true love makes Nicole wish for the same. Too bad she doesn’t have what it takes. When her only option to get to her best friend’s wedding is to accept a ride with sexy farmer Christian Henley, Nicole’s self-doubts heckle her from the back seat. Loudly. But she promised to be the maid of honor, and she’s not going to bail on the bride. Besides, a handsome Vermont mountain man with a body full of muscles won’t even notice someone like her. Except he does, and when Christian comes to her rescue on a busy Boston street, Nicole can’t help noticing everything about him. It’s going to be a long drive. Is one kind soul enough to quiet the voices? One Kind Soul is a one-night-stand, forced-proximity, small-town, contemporary romance that features a bartending heroine and a farmer hero who rescue each other in every sense of the word.

Book Description
Mason Harrister was certainly worth losing my wings. I died. I became an angel. Had a gorgeous set of wings and everything. Then the Sun Goddess kicked me out of paradise for something I didn’t do. My wings were burned right off my back. I’ve returned to Earth now, but not as a soul in a brand new human body. Instead, I’m in the adult one I had during my last time here in Moon Valley, Vermont. Now have to figure out what comes next. A help wanted sign draws me to a familiar diner in the small town. I secure a job and a place to stay because that’s what humans who want to survive do. When I step into the diner’s kitchen and meet the chef, however, the ovens aren’t the only thing heating up. Mason Harrister looks even better than I remembered, and the love we shared before I died instantly flares to life again. How do I tell him the truth about where I’ve been? Claiming to have been an angel? He’ll think I’m insane. But Mason has some secrets of his own. Secrets that show me there’s more than just humans rattling about on this planet. I’m not going to let that stop me from diving back into a relationship with Mason though. We have a second chance and we’re going for it. Until the Sun Goddess pays us a visit and threatens the future we’ve planned. Only she doesn’t expect what Mason and I are willing to do to keep our deep love alive.
