About this series
Matt Wolfe has spent his entire life living down to everyone's expectations. He's the body, the workhorse, the guy who always says yes. As a member of a firefighting family, he's also seen too many people lose everything they hold dear within the space of a heartbeat. He knows it's easier to let go of things if you never really wanted them in the first place.
When Cassidy and Matt are volunteered to co-chair a holiday event, their working relationship slides into a secret friendship . . . with benefits. For Matt, a fling with Cassidy is perfect-the built-in expiration date means no messy breakup and no disappointment when expectations aren't fulfilled. It's perfect for Cassidy, too. She doesn't want anything-or anyone-tying her down. But now the one person who "gets" her, who supports her dream to leave St. Caroline, is the one person Cassidy can't bear the thought of leaving. And, for the first time in his life, Matt is discovering expectations he wants to live up to . . . his own.

- Summer Again: A St. Caroline Novel
1
The town of St. Caroline had never felt like home to Sterling Matthew. Even though the Matthew family could date their residence back nearly a hundred years, Sterling had grown up in boarding schools-and promptly decamped for the ski slopes of Europe after college. When his father falls ill, his mother calls him home to run the family business, the renowned Chesapeake Inn. What Sterling finds, though, is a business on shaky financial footing and a staff resistant to the radical changes he has to make. No matter. He'll do what needs to be done . . . and then leave St. Caroline for good. For years, Lucy Wyndham wondered whether she'd ever catch another glimpse of the boy she'd crushed on at the Chesapeake Inn's summer camp for disadvantaged kids. He'd been tall and quiet. Mysterious and aloof. And the owner's son. Now he's her boss and the attraction is just as strong-but they're no more compatible today than they were as teenagers. When he informs her that the camp must be eliminated to improve the resort's bottom line, she embarks on an ambitious campaign to save it. Even if the price is her job . . . and her heart. Contains mature themes.
- Hearts on Fire: A St. Caroline Novel
2
Becca Trevor never intended to come back to pretty little St. Caroline, Maryland, and her family's quilt shop. Growing up, she was the wild child . . . and the black sheep of the family . . . and the girl who couldn't get anything right. And she definitely never intended to see Jack Wolfe again. Those fifteen minutes she'd spent with him at a graduation party seven years ago? Unforgettable-for a whole lot of reasons. Jack Wolfe was the golden boy of St. Caroline. Smart, Ivy League-educated, law school-bound. He's home from California for a family emergency, a situation that would not be improved by the news that he's not the hotshot corporate attorney everyone thinks he is. If he can keep his real job a secret until the end of summer, he'll still be golden and no one else will be the wiser. But Becca has an even bigger secret of her own . . . one that will change Jack's life forever. Contains mature themes.
