Not Sure Where To Start?

With 50+ books out there, I totally get it. That's a lot of options! So let me make this easy. Tell me what kind of mood you're in, and I'll point you to the perfect first read.


"I want to feel like I'm on vacation at the beach."

Start with The Beach House. It's the book that started my most beloved series, South Carolina Sunsets. You'll meet Julie, a woman starting over in the Lowcountry after her life falls apart, and the quirky little beach town of Seagrove that becomes her home. Readers tell me they can practically feel the salt air. If you love it, there are 12 more books waiting for you in Seagrove.

"I need something cozy with mountain vibes."

You want Welcome to Jubilee, the first book in my Jubilee series. It's set in a small Blue Ridge Mountain town in Georgia, and it's got that warm, wrapped-in-a-blanket feeling. Hot coffee, mountain views, and the kind of tight-knit community where everybody knows your business but loves you anyway. If you love it, the rest of the series is waiting for you.

"I just want something funny and feel-good."

Oh, you need The Baking Games. Two rival bakers. One competition. A whole lot of chaos (and buttercream frosting). It's a standalone, so no commitment required. Just pure fun from start to finish. Over 1,300 five-star reviews and counting.

"I'm going through a big life change and need a book that gets it."

The Bucket List was written for you. Jill is a grieving widow with a bad case of anxiety and a habit of playing life way too safe. When her adventurous best friend Monica passes away and leaves Jill a gorgeous beach house, there's a catch: she has to complete Monica's bucket list first. Salsa dancing. Ziplining. A hot-air balloon ride. Basically everything that terrifies her. With her daughter Annie cheering her on, Jill starts tackling the list and slowly discovers that her friend's final gift wasn't the house. It was permission to start living again. It's a standalone, and readers tell me it changed how they look at their own lives.

"I love a quirky small town with characters who feel like neighbors."

Head straight to Wisteria Island. Danielle is an ICU nurse who catches her fiancé in a humiliating public betrayal and does what any self-respecting woman would do: she runs. She ends up taking a job on a remote little retirement island off the coast of South Carolina, full of eccentric seniors and a secretly wealthy owner named Bennett who she definitely does not have feelings for. (She does.) It's a found-family story where the outcasts become the people who matter most. Three books in the series, and readers fly through all of them.

"Give me a long series I can binge for weeks."

That's my South Carolina Sunsets series, hands down. Start with The Beach House and settle in for 12 books (with more coming!) set in the fictional town of Seagrove. You'll watch families grow, relationships deepen, and the town itself become a character you love. Readers have told me they've reread the entire series three and four times. It's comfort reading at its finest.

"I want a standalone. No series commitment."

I've got you. Pick your vibe:

The Baking Games if you want lighthearted and funny. The Bucket List if you want emotional and life-affirming. The Unpolished Life of Eleanor Whitfield if you want a fish-out-of-water story with a Southern honky-tonk twist.
