Book Description
Three swoon-worthy romances bundled into one highly addictive collection of love stories… Infertility tests the strength of a marriage, a single mother is swept off her feet by a younger man, and friends become lovers in an unexpected workplace romance. —Holding Onto Hope— Sometimes you can’t give the people you love everything they want no matter how hard you try. Other times, people need more of you than you’re capable of giving. I’m at a crossroads between my wants and their needs. Kimber and I haven’t been able to grow our family and the clock is winding down. My friendship with Jake is becoming a nightmare. Convinced everyone has it better than he does, my partner can’t see the damage he’s inflicting on himself and those around us. Forced to choose, I’m holding onto hope that it’s never too late. —Home Wrecker (Bonus Chapter included!)— To get my head screwed on straight before it’s too late, I took on a mentor role with the big brother program. Shallow as it sounds, what any nine-year-old got from having me as a role model wasn’t a priority. Then Bhodi reminds me of everything I lost out on during my childhood. Unlike the adults in my life, I’d planned on doing right by the kid. And not because of the way his mom, Holly’s, bare midriff always peeks over those signature cut-off shorts. Or the way the woman—old enough to be my… older sister—looks at me from under those thick lashes. After Holly gives me one night, she’s stolen my heart, and I’m set on winning hers over. I’ll do anything to keep them, including chasing off Bhodi’s old man, who is looking for a second chance. And it leaves everyone around us wondering who is the real home wrecker? —Deep Gap— What does an almost middle-aged guy like me have in common with a young woman who was never allowed to grow up? Not much… Other than death. Greer accepts responsibility for taking life for granted. But the weight of others’ expectations leaves her existing in the past. She stands on one side of a deep chasm, tied down by regrets that highlight a bleak future. When Greer needs a lift, I recognize our histories are strikingly similar, and I’m struggling as much with being left behind by the people I held dear. But can two lonely hearts bridge the gap together and find a promise for tomorrow? Jody Kaye, the creator of the Kingsbrier Quintuplets, presents the Shattered Hearts of Carolina Romance Series Collection 2, a steamy southern romance series set in the heart of North Carolina. These emotionally-charged romance novels feature the thought-provoking journeys of strong heroines and obsessive antiheroes, age gap romances, single parents, and the soul-shattering impact a single event can have on a life. With strength and determination to overcome the odds, be prepared for a ton of angst and a whole lot of steam as the Mill Girls’ love stories tear at your heartstrings and their friendships to weave their way into your soul! **These books contain sensitive scenarios that may trigger readers.

Book Description
Three heartbreakingly honest and angsty love stories in one romance collection… A birthday gift leads to a life-changing confession, an assault survivor finds comfort in the arms of a surprising friend, and a single dad proves to a stripper there’s more to falling in love than meets the eye. —Splinter of Hope— What does anyone know about love at eighteen? All I was sure of was how much I loved my daughter… and giving her away destroyed me. Because back then the only labels I wore proved I was unwanted. Since we met, Trig has stood by my side. A protector. A lover. A splinter of hope that my arms won’t always be empty. He says he loves me, and I finally have the desire to lay my secrets bare. Except giving Trig another reason to walk away feels a lot like sacrificing our future… And I’ve already made one decision that shattered my heart. —Shred of Decency (Bonus Chapter included!)— It’s my word against his, and understanding the risk of someone finding out what happened to me is a hard pill to swallow. When the pain and loneliness becomes unbearable, I run into the most unlikely person capable of stopping my world from caving in… A decent man, who spent time behind bars. No one believes Morgan has much to offer anymore, not even him. But this once? I know better. Morgan is looking for a fresh start too. I rely on his friendship while learning how to feel safe again. Yet the closer we get, the more I question how often the punishment fits the crime. —Sliver of Truth (Bonus Chapter included!)— A stripper. A handyman. An impossible secret. Is it love or lust? And what happens when a mill girl breaks the cardinal rule? Men beg to touch my body. Yet, Dusty’s moves against mine in unspeaking eloquence. My heart stammers when we’re alone and he growls my name. I hate that I love the strength of his arms. I love that I hate it too. The feeling keeps me sane because when we’re apart doubt creeps in. I’m ashamed to admit my fears about what happens if everyone finds out we’ve been hooking up. Along with the guilt, comes the horrible thoughts I shouldn't have about Dusty’s disability. Perhaps those emotions are a sign I’m not a good person and there is a sliver of truth that I don’t deserve a better life. After all, what would a single dad really want with a woman who took her clothes off to get to where she is? Jody Kaye, the creator of the Kingsbrier Quintuplets, presents the Shattered Hearts of Carolina Romance Series Collection, a steamy southern romance series set in the heart of North Carolina. From adoption, addiction, and assault to disability bias, these emotionally charged novels follow how the impact of a single event can shatter a life. The thought-provoking journeys of strong heroines and obsessive antiheroes are told in the relatable, captivating style readers have come to adore. And the depth of dimensional characters live up to the expectations set in her previous small town romance books. With strength and determination to overcome the odds, be prepared for the Mill Girls’ love stories to tear at your heartstrings and their friendships to weave their way into your soul! **These books contain sensitive scenarios that may trigger readers.

Book Description
It’s my word against his, and understanding the risk of someone finding out what happened to me is a hard pill to swallow. When the pain and loneliness becomes unbearable, I run into the most unlikely person capable of stopping my world from caving in… A decent man, who spent time behind bars. No one believes Morgan has much to offer anymore, not even him. But this once? I know better. Morgan is looking for a fresh start too. I rely on his friendship while learning how to feel safe again. Yet the closer we get, the more I question how often the punishment fits the crime. From Jody Kaye, the creator of the Kingsbrier Quintuplets, comes an emotionally-charged southern romance series set in the heart of Carolina. From adoption, addiction, and assault to disability bias and infertility, these dark romances tackle how the impact of a single event can shatter a life. The thought-provoking journeys of strong heroines and obsessed antiheroes are told in the relatable captivating style readers have come to adore. And the depth of dimensional characters—that are the hallmark of Jody’s Quints—live up to the expectation she set in previous small town series.

Book Description
On the evening of May eighteenth, a young woman named Cass walks alone into the small village of Chimney Rock, North Carolina, intending to stay for exactly one year. She is in search of somewhere with peace, a place where she can safely picture herself and escape, shielding herself from recollections of the past. Cass soon meets two precocious children, their mother, a caring and generous business owner, and the neighboring town’s chief of police. Family and loss make up many of their stories, and while these people and others attempt to get to know and help Cass, the history and troubled memories of what led her to this place begin to gradually unfold. As the date of her planned departure approaches, the potential for love and a path to healing become clearer. Cass and those around her must decide how forcefully they are willing to hold on: to the past, to the pain, and to the person. This novel examines the true test of strength in the deepest depths of sorrow and reminds us of the overwhelming power of comforting influences in all of our lives, as our human souls struggle, against all odds, to survive.
