Work In Progress
Peckers: By Design continues the series through Sierra’s eyes. With the pact behind them, she’s free to explore romance — if only she had the time!
Between school, theater projects, finals, graduation, and the whirlwind of preparing their restaurant’s grand opening, Sierra’s schedule leaves little room for anything serious… or does it?
What happens when a casual fling starts to feel far too real?
Peckers: Standard Operating Procedure follows Roxie in the months after graduation, now fully immersed in the chaos, pressure, and excitement of helping run the restaurant she and her friends fought to build.
Confident, bold, and usually the one in control, Roxie is used to handling whatever comes her way. But as new fresh opportunities begin to surface, she finds herself pulled in directions she never expected.
With friendships evolving, ambitions growing, and desire refusing to follow the plan, Roxie quickly learns that attraction has a way of rewriting every standard operating procedure.
Peckers: Into the Fire follows Martha, the sweet, observant aunt and landlord of the friend group, as she steps into a new chapter of her life after widowhood. When Chef Charles Reese arrives to lead the kitchen, his confidence, skill, and slightly gruff demeanor immediately clash with Martha’s quiet competence — and quietly, inexplicably, sparks fly.
Between fiery kitchens, unexpected feelings, and the lessons of second chances, Martha must decide whether to guard her heart or risk letting love in again.

Kissed: A Toadily True Tale

When “happily ever after” proves far more complicated than the storybooks promised, magic, identity, and unexpected consequences collide in a charming tale about transformation — inside and out.
