    Hopeless Heritage Series

    By Nicole Tillman

    About this series

    Claire has made her fair share of mistakes, her biggest being the fling she shared with her best friend's older brother, Rush. Lucky for her, he hopped on a plane the next day bound for California, leaving her to sweep their intimacy under the rug.  But Claire is more than okay with that arrangement. She's happy with the life she's living and doesn't need the complications of a man.  However, when Claire is fired, she finds that scoring a decent job in her backwoods town isn't going to be as easy as she had anticipated.

    Enter Rush.

    When Rush gets an invitation to return home for his best friend's bachelor party, the first thing he imagines is a spicy reunion with the one girl he hasn't been able to forget. He can't wait to ditch his buddies and slink off to her apartment. So, when he walks through the door of the one-and-only strip club near his hometown, the last person he expects to see is Claire.

    Disappointed, and more than a little enraged, he makes her an offer she can't refuse. Before she knows it, Claire is on her way to California, ready to put her culinary degree to work in a big city. Grateful for Rush's connections, she throws caution to the wind in order to make something of herself. She's entrusted her future security to Rush, but in no way intends to entrust him with anything else; not her body and especially not her heart.

    Claire blossoms on the West Coast. Life is everything she expected it to be. That is, until she discovers that Rush hasn't been completely up front about their arrangement. In an instant, she's ready to hop on a plane and head home, giving up the glamor and fast-paced life she's been salivating over for years in exchange for the sleepy, backwoods town she finally managed to escape.

    Note: All books in the Hopeless Heritage series are stand-alone novels, but characters from other books will make appearances. Also, these books are contemporary romances with strong language and sexual content not intended for readers under the age of 18.

      Sapphire has come to grips with the fact that she's a failure as a wife and an even bigger failure as a mother. Resigning herself to a life of simple detachment, she lives by one rule- No men. That is, until she meets Collin. He is able to see past her inked skin, her pierced features, and her hardened heart. He is determined to worm his way into her life, even if she pushes him away at every turn. But once her defenses are lowered, she remembers exactly why she erected them in the first place. She fears loss. She knows that the world is a dark, unforgiving place and doesn't need another reason to be angry. Can she open herself up and take a chance on someone who could eventually leave? Or will she run from from her fear of inevitable failure? As she is tested time and time again, she realizes that she does have a sliver of control over the things that happen in her life. Not everything is predestined and doomed to fail. Or so she hopes... At the precipice of a most important decision she wonders if she has the courage to step back into the roles she once failed to fill. She is tired of living with only rubble and destruction to keep her company and is faced with only two options. She can fall, relinquishing her fate to the control of someone else. Or she can jump. Note: All books in the Hopeless Heritage series are stand-alone novels, but characters from other books will make appearances. Also, these books are contemporary romances with strong language and sexual content not intended for readers under the age of 18.
