“Loved all 3 books. The characters are absolutely great. HJ Bellus knows how to make you feel like you’re right there with them. I laughed and even cried. I couldn’t stop reading the books. I had all three finished in a day and a half.” -AMAZON READER

CREE – BOOKS #1
Whose parents abandon them in a trashy trailer when they are five years old? Oh Yeah! Mine do!
Hey Hoochies! I’m Milly, and I am tired of taking kicks to the gut. A broken family, an asshole husband and the loss of loved ones have left me crying Uncle, and declaring a serious case of the Fuck-Its!
I had my heart broken, stomped on and shattered before I ever started on my journey to find my little piece of happiness. With a bucket list, a ’66 Ford and wild dreams, I set out on an adventure that changed my life forever.
I found Cree…
A pirate with a little princess and they swept me off my ever lovin’ feet, filling my world with sprinkles, mac n’ cheese and the courage to live again.
They forced my fragile heart to trust and love without fear.
But the truth is, nobody’s past stays hidden forever. It’s an invisible monster waiting to attack and destroy. It has the capability to ruin everything you’ve worked to set right.
All it takes is one final blow to the gut to end everything…
TRIPP – BOOK #2
Lacey’s Story…
Covering up pain is easy. It’s keeping it tucked away that’s hard. I’ve always needed the cover of tattoos to hide the nasty past that leached its way into me, tainting me beneath my skin.
Not the shiny, trendy tats, but the ugly broken kind, meant to keep the world at bay. If they weren’t enough, then my piercings, foul mouth and crazy hair usually did the trick. Life had taught me to never follow the rules, because when you do, you get burned.
My life was perfectly imperfect until Tripp…
Our relationship is what most would describe as fuel meeting fire. We were both hell bent on burning each other to the ground. Tripp was sexy as hell, a charismatic beast, and soon became one of my best friends. We shared a love of ice cream and tattoos as we blazed our own path that could only lead to a beautiful train wreck.
The only question left is, will we set the countryside ablaze with our hot tempers and foul mouths? Or will we paint our own happy ending filled with all the gushy shit normal people crave?
MILES – BOOK #3
I lost it all…
My hope, my happiness, and my will to live. My heart was tattered and torn from the promise of real love.
Until him…
His profound love for living, fortune cookies and collection of rusty matchbox cars made me smile again. It is a simple love story. I found my rainbow, my pot of gold, my piece of beautiful all in one simple man. Miles.
Not every happy ending is perfect…
A hidden secret forces me to reveal my hand and choose between my Prince Charming and my family.
My choice. My consequences. My story. My Mistake.

“These beautifully broken people who have never fully given up even when they thought their worlds were over.” –Tiffany Williams, I’m A Book Shark
Love struck me at the early age of five. The boy turned into a man, and I fell even deeper. Guy Webb had no idea my fragile heart belonged to him for so many years. He was too busy being my brother’s best friend and a star on the football field. He was my daydream, and consumed every single thought, but he was always one step from my reach.
Beartooth Ranch was our home. The rich ranch land raised us, fostered our laughs, losses, and even gained a new family member when Guy moved in for his sophomore year of high school.
I hid my love for years. But now he’s back. Guy Webb returned a broken soldier after serving his country all over the atlas. And now it’s my job to help him heal.
My family lost everything with his return and I can only hope I survive it.

“I’m still trying to catch my breath after finishing this. Trust me when I say you should go buy tissues in bulk before starting this book. The Flight of Hope absolutely ripped out my heart.” –Britt at Red Hatter Book Blog
Sneak Peek
I’m a shattered woman who has found a broken man and am facing a second chance. Love heals.
They sing song after song together until Jed’s voice fades off.
It was our last kiss.
Our last night.
Our last night.
My heart had to learn to beat for a new reason.


“I knew going in this would be a tear-jerker, but I still was not quite prepared for how much of an ugly cry it would be. This book has all the feels. You must read this book. Grab a box of tissues. Make that two. You’ll need them. #SuperUglyCry #SecondChances #MustRead.” –A.M. Hargrove, USA Today Best Selling Author
