Falling Excerpt

“I really don’t want to hurt you,” he says regretfully.
I try not to show how disappointed I am, but honestly…I’m not gonna force him to have sex with me.
“So, there’ll be a little change in plans for our first position,” he continues, the slow smile spreading across his face wicked.
A thrill shoots through me. “First position? You’re already planning on us doing this more than once? Presumptuous.” I laugh.

To the small town of Landmark Mountain, Callum Landmark is a man of few words and considered to be the family grump. Uninvited and unexpected, I crash into his world like a wrecking ball and disrupt the delicate balance of his carefully constructed existence.
Forced to live together due to my life's unexpected adventure, I find that the more time I spend with him, the more I see beneath his impenetrable exterior and into the heart of the man that not many are privileged to witness.
And against all odds, that vulnerability draws me in, tugging at the strings of my heart with an undeniable force. Coupled with his love for animals—nothing could be more charming than to watch this sexy, rugged rancher and animal whisperer at work.
But our connection is forged at the worst possible timing. I'm running from past mistakes, and meeting Callum has me jumping headfirst into a whirlwind of new complications. Yet, I can't resist his allure and the sizzling tension between us.
As I navigate the twists and turns of my new life in this quaint town, I can't help but wonder if falling for Callum might be the most unpredictable adventure of all.
Falling is book four in the standalone Landmark Mountain series.

Someday is available on Audio!!

Now available in audio... Angelina Rocca and Jameson Adams bring Theo and Sofie to life in their beautiful narration of Someday!

Listen now —-> https://geni.us/SomedayAudio

From childhood best friends to high school sweethearts…to a relationship so broken it seems impossible to fix…

I’ve loved Sofie Copewell for as long as I can remember.
She was all I ever wanted.
We said someday we’d have a family together and raise them on our ranch in Landmark Mountain.
She was my home. My forever.
I spent my whole life chasing her, hanging on her every word, and lighting up when she smiled at me.
And I never had a single doubt that she felt the same way.
Until she left and didn’t come back…
For eight years.
Now she’s returned, and I’m resentful and want answers.
Answers to why she left without a goodbye, taking all our dreams with her.
But as angry as I am and as much as I fight it, the electricity between us is still as strong as it was before.
And when I get the answers I’m looking for, I realize that she never stopped loving me either.
I want to believe our someday is now, but can I trust her not to leave again?

**Someday is book two in the Landmark Mountain series, but each book can be read as a standalone.
The content warnings for Someday are the discussion of child and domestic abuse, and the death of a parent.

Unforgettable Audio

 ABOUT THE BOOK:

A Sizzling, Enemies to Lovers, Workplace, Small-Town Romance by USA Today bestselling author Willow Aster.

Jamison Ledger.
The hottest man I’ve ever seen.
The enemy I never saw coming.

On one of the worst days of my life, the last thing I planned on was falling into bed with a guy who literally charmed the pants right off me.

Little did I know, that hot, gorgeous man would be Jamison Ledger, the man responsible for the very tears I was crying.

A thief. The very sexy thief who took everything I’ve ever wanted—my legacy, my happiness, and what I’ve worked my whole life to attain.

Now, we have to co-exist. Working together at my family’s lodge, the inheritance that should’ve gone to me, while trying to keep our hands to ourselves after our unforgettable night together.

But as I see him more and more, I have to remind myself not to fall in love with the charismatic lodge owner who has taken our small town by storm.

There’s a fine line between love and hate, and Jamison is blurring that line.

He might have given me a night I’ll never forget, but can I let him take more of my future than he already has?

Unforgettable is book one in the interconnected Landmark Mountain Series and can be read as a standalone.
