TURKEYS is NOW LIVE!
Lucy Lennox and I have a BRAND NEW BOOK in the Licking Thicket world and it's now available on our website shops!
Hunter Jackson’s Sage Advice for a Happy Thanksgiving
When your turkey-thieving, town-abandoning, former childhood friend reappears in Licking Thicket after fifteen long years, looking like a snack and smelling like all your favorite treats put together, it might be tempting to, well, dig in.
Don’t.
And when your plan to teach the man a lesson goes spectacularly awry, becoming less of a wattle-wearing walk of shame around the Thicket’s Thanksgiving festival and more of a sexy turkey-twerk in a skin-tight bird costume featuring the hottest pair of drumsticks the town’s ever seen, you might think it’s time to get over your feud and, well, take a bite.
Resist.
But when Charlton Nutter finally shows you the sweet, pure heart he’s hiding under all his fine, big-city feathers, and you realize, thanks to the town’s meddling matchmakers, that the man is hungry for the kind of love and belonging that only the Thicket can provide, you might decide that both of you have been acting like a pair of turkeys, and in that case you should…
Gobble. Him. Up.

⭐️The Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory series is now the CHAMPION SECURITY series ⭐️
The heroes of Champion Security had a team meeting and decided they needed to be taken more seriously and hence, a new series name was born. Don't worry, it's still the same over the top innuendos and hilarious puns inside. (plus swoon romances, obviously!) Just the name has changed. Oh, wait, no, one more thing has changed. Say hello to:
⭐️CHAMPION SECURITY: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION ⭐️
Join the men of Champion Security as they settle into the town of Licking Thicket, Tennessee… and accidentally stumble into a whole heap of trouble. From accidentally hijacking a cartel overlord’s plane, to posing as fake-fiances to plan a wedding and solve a crime, to hacking the world’s silliest video game, the Champion Security series is packed with laugh-out-loud humor, steamy connections made under pressure, and plenty of delicious, schmoopy love.
Included in this collection:
🛬 Hijacked: When a bodyguard is sent to South America to babysit a spoiled doctor, he sees it as a punishment… until the doctor winds up the hostage of a monologuing overlord, and the bodyguard realizes he cares more about his protectee than he realized.
💍 Hitched: Champion Security’s fearless leader is brought to his knees by a snarky wedding planner who’s been hired to plan a wedding for a criminal mastermind’s daughter.
🎮 Hacked: A cocky hacker and his nemesis–an adorkable, meddling gamer–must work together to bring down a criminal organization… while trying their hardest not to fall for each other.
If you haven't met the men of Champion Security yet? Now's the perfect time. Grab this collection now in Kindle Unlimited!

COVER AND BLURB REVEAL for THE PRETENDERS OF COPPER COUNTY!!
Book 1 of my brand new Copper County series is coming soon!
Direct Shop Release Date: September 17th, 2024
Amazon Release Date: September 24, 2024
Cover Design: @natasha.snow.designs
Cover Photography: @michellelancaster_photo
Cover Model: Eric Guilmette
It was supposed to be a straightforward protection job. Remove the target from Vermont, get him to the safehouse, keep him there until his mafia uncle testifies, get back in my employer’s good graces.
Boom, done. Easy.
But it turns out things get complicated real fast when your target is an adorkable, accident-prone cutie with a shockingly low sense of self-preservation, zero clue that he’s related to the Fromadgio crime boss, and 100% too much inclination to chat happily with strangers.
When Chris compromises our safehouse (and accidentally starts a “lowkey, unavoidable” bar fight), our only option is to go undercover… pretending to be campground hosts in Copper County, New York.
Make that married campground hosts. (Long story.)
Now I’m hiding out with a guy who’s obsessed with action-adventure shows and hand-knit sweaters, and whose most fearsome talent is arranging charcuterie boards, all of which is far less helpful in a gunfight than you might think.
And worst of all… the sweet little virgin I rescued is growing on me.
Somehow I find myself listening to his happy chatter when I should be watching the woods, trying to figure out how his mind works when I should be getting us out of this predicament, and appreciating the way he looks in my shirts when I should be focused on getting my career back on track.
But when the Fromadgios’ enemies finally find us, protecting Chris is no longer just a job. I’ll do anything to protect what’s mine… and there’s nothing pretend about it.
Featuring Reed Sunday from my Sunday brothers series, plus cameos from tons of Love in O'Leary couples, I can't WAIT for you to read this story!

⭐COVER & BLURB REVEAL FOR THE RIVALS OF COPPER COUNTY⭐
Book 2 of my Copper County series is coming soon!
Direct Shop Release Date: November 12th, 2024
Amazon Release Date: November 19th, 2024
Cover Design: Natasha Snow Designs
Cover Photography: Michelle Lancaster
Cover Model: Mitch Walker
If there were a prize for the most contented man in Copper County, I’d win it every time.
I’ve got my business. My teenage son. My family. My friends… and, sure, maybe I don’t have any romantic prospects at the moment, but it’s worth it because my life is great. Seriously. Could not be better. I’m practically bleeding serenity over here.
At least until Jasper Wrigley shows up in Copper County after twenty years–as my son’s temporary hockey coach, no less, though the man can barely lace up his skates–and throws my carefully ordered life into chaos.
Once upon a time, magnetic, confident Jasper was my best friend and greatest rival, and his summer visits to town were the best part of my year. Our competitions were fierce. Our dares were thrilling. We talked about everything under the sun, and he made me believe in the possibility of a bright, hazy future somewhere just out of reach.
But then he left, and we grew up… or at least I did. And the last thing I need now is Jasper back in my space, provoking me, challenging me, and making me question… freaking everything.
Like whether my life is as perfect as I claim.
Like whether I’m as straight as I think.
Like whether there might be something better than “contentment” out there waiting for me, if I’m brave enough to look for it.
And whether the man who was always my greatest rival… might just be the love of my life.

PEACOCKS COVER & BLURB REVEAL
We're going back to Licking Thicket this February! PEACOCKS is coming!

Lane’s Tips for Licking Thicket Newcomers
If at all possible, find yourself a hot and helpful landlord like Jaybird Proud who mows the lawn shirtless… and hope your grass grows quickly.
Expect the unexpected at work. If you’re a veterinarian, this might mean letter-cows, pet pigs that aren’t pets, and Butterscotch the Pomeranian, who has Strong Feelings about his glands.
Offer your help around town when needed… especially when that gorgeous landlord knocks on your door because his (pea)cock won’t stop displaying.
Learn about local customs, including: matchmaking, leaving Italian Gentlemen on the doormat, ordering tater tots, and entwining dead vines into wreaths as a sign of true love.
Get your car washed on the regular… especially when your landlord is the one doing the scrubbing.
Above all, keep things casual, even when Jay ends up at your place every night. And every morning. And the occasional afternoon.
But when you find yourself falling for someone like Jaybird Proud (and life in his weird and wonderful town), let go of everything you thought you wanted… and Entwine that Thicketeer forever.
