Spring 1946--Following four years of war on the heels of the decade-long Great Depression, Americans are finally feeling a sense of hope that begins sweeping the nation…

Jo-Jo Anderson feels that optimism too. Slipping the reins of her Iowa farming town, Jo leaves to make her mark on the entertainment scene in Manhattan. Audiences are clamoring for new musicals on Broadway, nightclubs are flourishing, and NYC is the beating heart of the radio networks. After arriving, Jo-Jo quickly realizes that thousands of would-be stars are following her same ambitions, making opportunities scarce, but her luck begins to turn when she hears about Talent Jackpot.

Her twin, Sarah, finds success with her studies as a scholarship student at the University of Iowa. But Sarah is adrift socially, finding it difficult to forge friendships. Her perfectly planned life is upended when her hometown boyfriend announces he’s suddenly joined the navy. Sarah’s top grades draw the attention of a crusty biology professor and after accepting his offer of a lab position, her rigid lifestyle gets a lot more complicated.

This novel tells a story of unexpected change. The twins make their way through multiple challenges with humor, ambition, and heartbreak but remain tied together by the bonds of sisterhood, winding their way through the seedier backdoors of the entertainment business, and into college dorm life and love nest apartments.  

With the historical backdrop of the post WW2 era, Falling From The Nest, reads as a stand-alone story but also serves as a sequel to author Bobbie Candas’ previous novel, The Lost and Found of Green Tree.

(Serenity Mountain #8)
Expected Publication: October 29, 2024 
Devastated, destitute, and depressed Tess Ramerez is struggling to keep her taco truck, her only livelihood, afloat after the death of her beloved grandmother. Despite her financial and emotional situation, Tess does all she can to help others--even a young man who's embroiled in danger with a perilous gang.  When Tess is injured in an attempt to save him, she has no trust in the medical field or the money to recover.
 
Retired Navy SEAL Noah "Taco" Whitaker puts his life on the line for others, facing off against sinister criminals for Serenity Securities. He finds solace in the spicier things in life, sexy women and scrumptious foods.  And tacos top his list. The fiery, spitfire who owns his favorite food truck and keeps him on his toes with her spicy personality is an added bonus to his palate.  But when a dangerous gang infiltrates their area and Tess is hurt, he'll do anything to help her.  Getting her to agree to heal on Serenity Mountain is one of the toughest challenges of his life. 
 
Can he find a way to convince Tess to trust him or will tempting Tess be harder than taking down the gang who threatens them all?

One night, three bikers, a shared bottle of whiskey, and the best climax of my life changed everything.
I’ve always been a good girl.
My father is a preacher, and I’ve spent my life making safe choices and following all the rules.
But when I find the man who swore to love me in bed with another woman, I can’t pretend to honor, love, and cherish any longer. He betrayed me and emptied our bank account. I lost everything.
That’s when I met Raptor, Trojan, and War. Three inked bad boys and members of a notorious biker club.
Trojan, the flirt with a sensual smile and eyes full of promise. His husky words make me want to do wicked things.
Raptor, rough, inked, and muscled. His hulking strength and skill with a blade are why he’s the cleaner of the club, but his protective nature makes me feel warm and safe.
And then there’s War. He’s broken, guarded, and doesn’t understand personal boundaries. The darkness in his eyes seems like a warning, but I feel drawn to his heated gaze.
The three men offer to give me the best night of my life. I let them, breaking all the rules for one night. But six weeks later, I’m left with a present. I’m sick, and it isn’t the stomach flu.
I’m pregnant. With twins.
Things grow more complicated when my ex tries to intimidate me, causing problems and sending threats. I’m in danger.
Trojan, War, and Raptor won’t allow anything to happen to me or the babies. We’re a family now.
 
ONE NIGHT WITH THE BIKERS is a motorcycle club romance where the girl gets all the bad boys and doesn't have to choose between them to get her happy ever after. It's book 2 in the FERAL REBELS MC that consists of standalone romances with ongoing plotlines and interconnecting characters. There's violence, biker slang, forced proximity, a secret pregnancy, and possessive, protective alpha men who fall first. 
*** This is a crossover with the Royal Bastards MC Tonopah and Las Vegas, NV chapters.

My return home to my family’s small town hasn’t been easy, but the new female contractor I hired—a struggling but strong willed single mom—keeps stripping her clothes off on the job site, which certainly spices things up.
(She swears a spider crawled under her shirt.)

She also divulges she’s scared of her ex and he’s taking her to court for custody of their daughter. I hate to see a woman mistreated, so I step up and marry her so she has a stronger case in front of the judge. Temporarily, of course.

As a retired millionaire, I’ve had my fair share of women use me for my wealth. I’ve given up on finding my happily ever after and I’m okay with it. I just need to find something else to do with the second half of my life.

My new wife, Emmerleigh Slaywright, has spicy comebacks galore, a stubborn streak a mile wide, and the kind of bellow on the job site that can unman even the toughest of workers. Add in her pint-sized daughter, Georgia, who loves the animals on our hobby farm and has me wrapped around her pinkie finger, and I’m not sure why I pushed for the marriage to be fake.

One night, all the tension between us boils over and Em gives up control.
(Only in the bedroom and I’m very okay with it.)

Suddenly she wants the marriage annulled, so she’s not taking advantage of me. Right when I think I want to make this marriage real. She might think she’s looking out for me, but she doesn’t understand that Em and Georgia have become the future I thought I’d never have.

How can I convince her they’re the package deal I want?

★★★★★ Goodreads Review - “This book was so so wonderfully swoony good. I have big ol’ heart eyes after reading it. The sexual banter, the spice, the loving gestures, the tiny child cuteness and the deep emotions all came together to create this big hearted romance that brings together two intense, strong and passionate characters.”
