A year and a half ago, Brokenhearted was released. I have to admit, it is one of my favourite books I’ve written. I am lucky enough to be published with Dreamspinner Press, who I think are absolutely fabulous. They took that little book I wrote and made it even more special. Since then, the Hope Cove series has been made into audio books, and a few months ago, the German translation of Brokenhearted was released.
Well, now, Mack and Oliver (and Declan and Lucas, and Haydn and Trevor) are about to have a very busy month!
A boxed set of the series is now available for pre-order on the Dreamspinner Press website. It officially releases on August 21st. It’s all three books bundled into one for a much lower price. And if that wasn’t cool enough, the Italian translation of Brokenhearted comes out just four short days later on August 25th!
Here are the blurbs for all three books in the bundle:
Brokenhearted
Hope Cove: Book One
Oliver Parrish has been alone in the world since he was born. So when Sheriff Owen “Mack” Macklin shows up on his doorstep to deliver the news that Oliver’s sister has died, he’s beyond surprised. Still, Oliver returns with Mack to Hope Cove, Maine, hoping to get to know the sister he never knew he had. As he tries to snap these new elements into his solitary life, he’s not sure how they might fit.
His life is shaken up further as he falls in love with the irresistible town of Hope Cove, and with Mack, its equally irresistible sheriff. But when he receives devastating news about his sister’s cause of death, Oliver doesn’t know whether to stay and fight for love and a good life, or cut his losses and run.
Wholehearted
Hope Cove: Book Two
Officer Declan Grant responds to a call at the Hope Cove docks to find Lucas Hale barely alive after being beaten and tossed off his fishing boat. The violent crime rocks this tranquil community where everyone knows each other and doors are rarely locked. Despite Declan being new to Hope Cove, he wants to keep his new home and Lucas safe. He starts by volunteering to care for Lucas after he’s released from the hospital.
Lucas just wants to put the whole incident behind him and move on, but the more he gets to know Declan, the harder he finds it to push Declan and his do-right attitude away. The investigation into the assault continues, but Declan will soon face a moral dilemma, a choice that may topple his tidy life and force him to choose between Lucas and the law.
Ironhearted
Hope Cove: Book Three
Haydn Prescott stood by and watched his friends fall in love, something he hopes never happens to him. It’s too much drama, thankyouverymuch. He just wants a hot guy to roll around with every once in a while. No muss, no fuss. Out for a night of dancing, he meets Trevor Ryan and the two are explosive together. The next morning, Haydn wakes up alone.
Trevor is gone and Haydn thinks he’s seen the last of him… until months later when Trevor walks into Haydn’s bakery in Hope Cove. Entanglements and complications ooze from Trevor, but Haydn can’t ignore him—Trevor won’t let him. Haydn always believed he wanted to be free and single forever, but now he’s torn: does he want to be with Trevor or should he play it safe and stick to what’s worked?

And in case you speak Italian, here’s the Italian blurb as well!

Decide comunque di andare a Hope Cove, nel Maine, sperando di imparare a conoscere quella sorella che non ha mai saputo di avere. Mentre cerca di incastrare questi nuovi elementi nella sua vita solitaria, non è certo che si adatteranno perfettamente.
La sua vita viene scombussolata ancora di più quando s’innamora dell’irresistibile cittadina di Hope Cove e di Mack, l’ugualmente irresistibile sceriffo. Ma quando riceve la devastante notizia delle vere cause della morte della sorella, Oliver non sa se rimanere a combattere per l’amore e una vita piacevole, o limitare i danni e fuggire.
