The Haven Coast Series

Picture

A charming town, a loyal dog, and a handsome stranger—Alice is about to find more than just a place to call home.


Alice Miller has accomplished two things in the past decade:

1. Climbing the corporate ladder trying to become the youngest female partner in her consulting firm.
2. Burying the grief of her parents’ tragic death as deep as possible.

But when her life is upended with an unexpected layoff, Alice finds herself with an empty to-do list and too much time. She turns to Haven Cove, the quaint seaside town, and its lovable townsfolk-people she’d never uttered a word to.

Enter Colin-strikingly handsome with ocean-blue eyes-and his golden retriever, Atticus who literally knocks Alice off her feet. Then there’s Raya, the vibrant café owner determined to make Alice her new best friend and to pull her into the town’s close-knit community. Together, they decide to make Alice a new to do list, a series of adventures designed to push Alice to live her life while immersing herself in Haven Cove.

As Alice ticks off each adventure, she finds herself doing more in weeks that she had in years, rediscovering herself and a sense of belonging. But as her long-buried grief begins to surface, she faces a heart-wrenching decision: return to her safe, corporate cocoon or finally confront her past to fully embrace the love and community she has found.

“Feels Like Home” is an uplifting story of love, loss, and the journey to finding one’s true self.

With sizzling chemistry, and enemies-to-lovers dynamic, welcome back to Havenbrook Cove for this feel-good romance about finding the courage to write your own happily ever-after.

Becca Kantor had a plan: get her PhD, marry Spencer, and become the perfect professor’s wife. But that all falls apart when she walks in on him and his grad student conducting some very hands-on “research”. Now, she’s starting over in Havenbrook Cove, a postcard-perfect seaside town with none of her old plans and plenty of emotional baggage.

Her new plan? Lick her wounds, make new friends and steer clear of Jared Walker, the maddeningly confident and attractive landlord who lives across the hall. Jared’s carefree attitude and relentless teasing brings out a fiery side of Becca she didn’t know existed. And instead of backing off, he seems to love it.

Becca wants nothing to do with him—or so she tells herself. But between trail runs, weekly pickleball games and the unsolicited advice of some hilarious meddling locals, she finds herself drawn to the one person who drives her absolutely nuts.

But just when Becca begins to picture a future that feels like her own, the ghosts of her past come knocking. Can Becca step out of the shadows and risk her heart for the life she truly wants? Or will she fall back into the plan someone else wrote for her?

I Like Me Better is a laugh-out-loud and heartwarming tale about finding your voice and falling for the person who challenges you to be your best self.

When your heart belongs to your brother’s best friend, and you’re expected to be everything to everyone…what happens when you finally choose yourself? For fans of Emily Henry, Abby Jimenez and Sarah Adams comes this friends to lovers novel about a pathological people pleaser.

Poppy Hopkins is fine. Totally fine. Her life is absolutely not a mess. She’s just:

✓ Living with her injured grandma
✓ Doing two people’s jobs at school
✓ Breaking into tears at the drop of a hat
✓ And oh yeah, the guy who broke her heart at 17 is back.

Alex Davies. Brother’s best friend. Former crush. Current next-door neighbor because the universe has a cruel sense of humor. Being around him feels like slipping into an old hoodie…that still smells like heartbreak.

Poppy is positive that they can be friends. That’s she’s completely over him. And that she can juggle her spiralling life without anything dropping. Spoiler: she can’t.

When her family insists that she keeps things strictly platonic with Alex and her grandmother throws everyone a curveball, Poppy’s already overflowing plate finally cracks. She’s been the good daughter, the good sister and the good friend for so long. But at what cost?

Will Poppy be brave enough to find out what happens when she stops saying yes to everyone else, and finally puts herself first?


Your Mess is Mine, is a laugh until you cry small town romance about second chances, saying no (finally) and loving the person who sees your mess, and stays anyway.
