y separately published work icon Summer Kiss Jenny Schwartz , Australia : Jenny Schwartz , 2015 9456555 2015 single work short story romance

'Freedom! For the last eleven years, schoolteacher Tessa Fraser has been raising her much younger brother with the help of their grandmother. But now her brother is eighteen, headed for college, and Tessa is finally free to indulge her adventurous spirit. Only, Sheriff Caleb Gascoyne has other ideas.

'Fishing at midnight, Caleb never thought he’d catch the woman of his dreams, but Tessa is sweet and funny and sparkling with the joys of summer. She’s a world away from his old life when he served his country on secret missions overseas. But she wants freedom, and he’s just settled back into Gascoyne Junction.

'Tessa knows Caleb is used to far more sophisticated women than her. She’s spent her whole life in the Texas Hill Country, while he’s travelled the world. Never has she regretted her lack of sophistication so much as when confronted by an honourable, old-fashioned cowboy-sheriff who just won’t be tempted into a midnight kiss.'

y separately published work icon Fall into His Kiss Jenny Schwartz , Australia : Jenny Schwartz , 2015 9456736 2015 single work short story romance

'The path reluctantly taken can lead to love.

'Rachel Cruft lost her dream job at a New York advertising agency because she refused to compromise her principles. Now, she’s back in her hometown of Bideer, Texas, trying to pick up the pieces of her life—and pick herself up from the floor of the supermarket. Ouch!

'Wyatt Allenjo is trying to save Rachel from flying cans of tuna when he knocks her over. It’s not the best way to introduce himself. However, life is filled with second chances, and Wyatt gets his when he enlists Rachel’s expertise to prepare for a magazine photo shoot at his house and gallery. The photo shoot has the potential to establish him as a major wood sculptor, and put Bideer on the tourist map.

'As Rachel spends time with Wyatt, she’s charmed by his gentle strength, woodcraft and kindness, and laughingly appreciative of her extended family’s attempts to help.

But Wyatt isn’t the only one offered a second chance. Rachel is presented with the opportunity to return to her New York career, with her principled stance respected. Will she choose her old ambitions of advertising success or allow a new dream the freedom to grow?'
