In life’s journey, we all face unexpected challenges, tough lessons, and moments of triumph that shape who we become. In this insightful and heartfelt collection of stories, I’ve written a reflection on personal experiences, from marathon runs and life-altering failures to the value of friendship, the power of hope, and the inevitability of change. With each chapter, you’ll discover how believing in yourself, embracing discomfort, and learning from setbacks are essential steps on the path to growth. Whether it’s the seed of an idea waiting to take root or the journey to finding joy in imperfection, these stories remind us that life’s greatest lessons often come from the struggles we least expect.

The home run neither of them expected… Pike Sherman is a legend, a hometown boy who made it to the big leagues. Literally. Professional baseball acquired one hell of a pitching arm when the gifted Pike was drafted seven years ago. Pike’s broken heart came along for the ride, too, but he kept that private, and since leaving Lonesome Point has kept his distance from his hometown. But when his sister, Mia, begs him to be the Dude of Honor at her wedding, he can’t refuse. He returns home to find himself thrown together with the one woman he never wanted to see again. Tulsi Hearst is on the verge of losing her Equine Therapy business. She needs to concentrate on finding funding, not dealing with Pike Sherman, the boy she sacrificed so much for, and the one person she’s ever lied to. And what a lie it is… Pike would hate her if he found out. She should stay far away from the brooding man her first love has become, but Tulsi can’t resist a slow dance with the only cowboy who ever made her blood rush. After just a few days back in Lonesome Point, Pike and Tulsi find themselves falling hard. Can their second chance survive Tulsi’s secret, or will Pike leave Lonesome Point a broken man all over again? The Lonesome Point Bachelors Series (each book can be read as a Standalone romance): Leather and Lace Saddles and Sin Diamonds and Dust Twelve Dates to Christmas Glitter and Grit Sunny with a Chance of True Love Chaps and Chance Ropes and Revenge Eight Second Angel A Hundred Million Reasons Perfect for fans of Samantha Christy, Janet Dailey, and heart-stealing heroes falling for feisty Southern girls.
