More Than Just A Dream
Avery has finally achieved her lifelong dream of opening a cozy coffee shop. The only catch?
Moving back into her childhood home until the business can stand on its own.
But returning home awakens a gift she swore she'd never use again.
After a childhood tragedy, Avery vowed to leave astral projection behind forever. Now, night after night, she's inexplicably drawn to a mysterious man she can only visit while her spirit walks. Though she's determined to keep her distance, each glimpse leaves her wondering why fate keeps bringing her back to him.
Then one impulsive mistake changes everything.
When Avery accidentally breaks the one rule set by her niece's enigmatic piano teacher—that no one is ever allowed to see him—she never expects to end up living in the secluded Danbury Castle as the reclusive musician's personal assistant.
For decades, Gabe has hidden himself behind a mask, convinced the scars from a terrible accident make him unworthy of the world beyond his castle walls. Music is his refuge, solitude his shield... until Avery turns his carefully guarded life upside down.
As friendship blossoms into something deeper, Avery has no idea that Gabe is keeping a life-changing secret—one that ties him to the mysterious man she visits each night. The longer he keeps the truth hidden, the greater the risk that the trust growing between them will shatter before either of them is brave enough to believe they deserve the love they've found.
A heartfelt blend of romance, healing, and a touch of magic, this enchanting love story proves that sometimes the greatest journey isn't across the world—it's learning to let someone truly see you.
The legacy of sterling manor: A romance novel
Blurb:
When Holly Jensen inherits her estranged aunt’s house, she doesn’t expect to have to fight with local heartthrob Derek Sterling over rightful ownership, but she’s determined to find the truth about the house that she plans to turn into a Bed and Breakfast.
Holly stumbles upon her aunt Celia’s journals in the attic which reveal a shocking truth: Her aunt Celia and Derek’s grandfather, Graham were once lovers.
Between trying to start a new business and finding her place in the town, Holly must also confront the strange all-consuming feelings that are evoked whenever she’s near Derek.
Derek Sterling is the town council president of a slowly dying small town, but he has a plan to save it. Now that the reclusive woman who was squatting in his grandfather’s house for the last seventy-years is gone (may she rest in peace), it’s time for action.
Things are falling into place for him except for Holly, the fiery redhead who just swept into town claiming the house as her own. For reasons he can’t explain, Derek is pulled toward Holly with a longing he’s never experienced before. The eternally noble Derek knows he needs to choose the town over his growing adoration for Holly, but he can’t stay away from her.

Dear Diary: A Daily Journal
I created this blank journal as a companion to my upcoming novel, The Legacy of Sterling Manor.
In the book, the main character Holly discovers her mysterious Aunt Celia’s diaries in the attic. When she reads them not only does she find unexpected things about Celia, but the diaries hold the answers to the strange things that have been happening to Holly. I created this blank journal because I thought it paired perfectly with the book.
You can use it for bullet journaling, gratitude practice, or as a daily diary. Don’t forget to add all the juicy details. You never know if someone might read it in 70 years and you wouldn’t want them to be disappointed!
