Faith

Graduating from college is bittersweet. I’ve accomplished my dreams, obtained my teaching degree, and am ready to find my dream job. However, I never realized how difficult or stressful it would be to find a position.

That’s why I jump at the chance to visit Chad, one of my best friends, on base in California.

It was meant to be two weeks of catching up and putting all thoughts of job hunting out of my mind. Little did I know those two weeks would change my life and alter the course we were both on.

Chad

The day she agrees to join me in California is one of the happiest days of my life. Having her with me gives me the taste of home I’ve been craving, but deep down, it’s more than that. She’s important to me, more than just my friend, and my closest friend’s twin sister.

Spending my nights with her has done nothing but reinforce this feeling I get when I’m with her. I know we said we’d keep things light, but she’s making it so damn hard not to want more.

Then I get stationed overseas. Everything changes in the blink of an eye, and I’m not just talking about our jobs or the fact we’re suddenly thousands of miles apart. Call it fate or destiny or just pure luck, but it’s beneath the desert sun that finally our future becomes clear.

Release Date: July 2, 2024


BLURB

Five sons, their perfect matches, and our family grows bigger every year. But this is our story—of how we met, fell, and grew our empire. This is the story of how we discovered the magic.

Lena

Stanley Riggins stole my heart back in high school. Our love blossomed amidst the chaos of life, surviving every challenge that came our way.

We married young, determined to face the world together. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat, because what we built wasn’t just a life, it’s a home—for us and our five wonderful sons.

Now that they have incredible wives of their own, they’ve given us a lively bunch of grandchildren, and our lives are filled with more love and laughter than ever before.


Stanley

From the moment our eyes locked, I knew Lena was the girl for me.

I finally felt the magic the Riggins men always talked about. Through all the ups and downs, our bond only grew stronger. We started a business and then a family. I couldn’t be prouder of our boys and the lives they’ve built with the women who love them as much as we do.

Having Lena by my side as we watch our love continue through the next generation is the greatest reward of all. It’s a true testament to the enduring bond we forged in those high school hallways. Year after year, and breath by breath, she’s still the one.

Stuck between casebooks and a man who can't seem to make up his mind, Emma jumps ship and heads for a summer study abroad in Ireland. Unfortunately, Ireland doesn’t make things any clearer, especially when she finds herself in bed with cute and studious Alex.

In the wake of her rebellions, Emma is left grasping for a sense of belonging.

Whatever she’s doing, and wherever she’s doing it, Emma will have to embrace the messiness of getting to know herself. Maybe for the first time.
