About this listen
Sometimes love begins with a little friendly blackmail...
The historic Madrigal Theater in the heart of downtown Wishful is on the verge of closing its doors. Piper Parish is on a mission to save it—even if it means pulling a little deception to get her best friend back on the stage where she had her heart broken. It's all for a good cause.
When new-to-town newspaperman Myles Stewart catches on to his co-star's shenanigans, he’s torn between blowing the whistle or grabbing a front-row seat to the show. He's never been able to resist a story... and he's not sure he wants to resist Piper.
As Myles and Piper find themselves entangled both on-stage and off, the plot thickens, because sparks are flying. Will the outcome of this matchmaking mission be two romances or a comedy of errors?
The Matchmaker Maneuver is a companion novella running concurrent to Be Careful, It's My Heart and is a backstory prequel. As such, it ends on a cliffhanger that resolves in Myles and Piper's full novel, Just For This Moment.

As more than the fireplace heats up his one-man cabin, they both find far more than they bargained for.

Arranged marriages are so three centuries ago. But that doesn't stop Afton Lennox from being bound by one. All her life she's been pledged to wed Connor MacKean. It's the only way to save both their families' estates, and they're friends after all so it won't be that bad. Right? Hamish Colquhoun has spent his entire adult life trying to find a way to liberate his best friend from a marriage he doesn't want. If it also spares the woman he's secretly loved for years, it's of no mind to him. He's already got a wife and family of his own. Freeing them both is just the right thing to do.

Story
What's a little marriage between friends? Mia has been Braxton's best friend for years. Even when they no longer lived in the same foster family, even after he'd aged out of the system, he'd continued to look out for the one person who got under his skin and made him care. For the last six years, Mia's been keeping her head down, putting one foot in front of the other, unable to trust anyone with her secrets—including the foster brother who's been the one bright spot in her life, as well as her secret crush.

After thirty-five years being married to the badge, former police chief Robert Curry has more than earned his retirement. Time to kick back, relax and be bored out of his mind. At least until he gets dragged to a dinner party he won't soon forget.
