Hi, I'm Amelia.
I'm a writer and enjoyer of spicy romantic comedy. I live in California with my husband, our two kids, and two dogs. I'm probably reading 2-3 books at all times, and can't seem to stop. So what did I do? Threw another one into the mix—my own.
In my spare time—when I'm not reading—I love to spend time with my family, coach my kids soccer team, and bake in the sun like a lizard. You'll also find me at my desk with a Diet Coke, between the hours of 10pm and 2am where I get most of my writing done. I hope you take pleasure in what came out of my brain during those times.
A spicy small-town romantic comedy about a single dad that’ll make you cry
and laugh your ass off.
After moving to the small-town of Canyon Creek with nothing to her name but an ancient car off of craigslist, and a teaching position at the local middle school, Ivy Bennett quickly learned to love two things.
The two best friends she’s made—her eighty-year-old landlord and a more age-appropriate coworker—and the charming little town nestled in the pines.
The thing she hasn’t learned to love? Her job.
As if fate intervenes, Ivy gets laid off, and a job nannying for her best friend’s brother falls right in her lap.
Enter Wes Cooper.
He’s grumpy, tattooed, hot as hell, and has Ivy so nervous, she can’t help but make an ass of herself.
But when he lets his guard down, when the silence surrounds them, she realizes it’s all a mask to protect him and his daughter’s hearts. When he melts for his daughter, and makes sure Ivy is taken care of, she can’t help but fall.
Ivy has spent most of her adult life feeling alone—like a burden—but when Wes, and the sweetest little girl alive accept her into their life and family, she finally feels whole. Home.
She knows she’s just the nanny for the scowling tattoo artist, but she can’t help but feel like she’s right where she belongs.
