The Love in Key West books are complete individual stories with a satisfying ending.  However, much as we are our own story tied to those before and after us, so are these books tied to each other.

Now Available The second book in the Love in Key West series  
A sweeping saga of love and war in the pioneer days of Florida
Betsy, a widow of five years, is ready to love again. The problem is she lives on an island dominated by single men. Once word gets out she is looking for a new husband, how will she fend off the horde of suitors without the protection of family? Is it even possible for her to find love again or will she be forced to settle for less?

A recently widowed journalist, Theodore is struggling with his grief and the care of his young son. His boss, more friend than employer, offers an irresistible assignment in the hopes of relieving Theodore’s melancholy. What starts as a summer sabbatical in Key West turns into an extended adventure embroiling Theodore in the Second Seminole War and lures him to an enchanting seamstress. Can peace be found for the country and for the turbulence in his heart?

Love Again is set in a time when our nation is young, arrogant, and expanding, but a political storm is brewing over slavery. In the midst of this heyday with its dark undercurrents, Theodore finds his loyalties tested. His patriotism collides with the injustices perpetrated on the indigenous people, and his sympathies are challenged by their brutal retaliation against the pioneer settlers of Florida. Can Theodore remain true to his beliefs and avoid taking sides in the midst of the swirling conflict?

Can Betsy find her happily ever after in the midst of the Great Seminole War?

Salvaged Love is the story of a young girl's journey into womanhood and her need to carve a place for herself in the small island community and in the heart of her husband. Set in 1828 at the cusp of Key West's rise to wealth from ship salvaging, the story blends fact and fiction to entertain and highlight the fascinating history of Key West, Florida.

Nineteen year old Abigail Bennington eagerly accepts her father's invitation to sail to the Caribbean in a desperate need to escape a pending proposal.  Their six month holiday goes awry when they become stranded in Key West, a newly settled island at the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico. Abby becomes enchanted with the island and its residents until circumstances force her father to insist she marry. Now locked in matrimony, can the young couple's burgeoning love survive resentment and isolation?
