Perfect Timing
​
Jes Harper loves her life. Being the production assistant for one of the most sought after producers in the music industry, Brett Winters, she gets to spend her time doing what she loves – listening to music. Working with the musicians is fun, too, but after being burned by them twice before in love, she’s sworn them off for anything more than friends. But, Brett’s best friend is back in town and perfect in every way, and he could change her mind…if she’d just let him.
Mitch Lansing has lived the musician life – the drugs, the women, the partying – but he’s over that now. At 40, you tend to want to settle down, even if you’re a musician. He’s happy to be back home with his best friend, Brett, and recording his own music. One look at Brett’s assistant and he knows he’s found the perfect woman for him…if he can just convince her of that.
When coming on strong doesn't work, Mitch decides to take it slow and vows to not give up. Day by day, piece by piece, he chips away at the wall around Jes’s heart. Can he prove to her that not all musicians are the same? Or will a ghost from his past ruin everything for them both? The other musicians from her past broke her heart...Mitch could shatter it completely.
Missing A Beat
​
How can life be so unfair?
Mitch finally got the girl of his dreams. Jes finally realized that not all rock stars were the same. Finally, life seems to be back on track for them both, until a force hell bent on tearing them apart deals a devastating blow.
Now, Jes has been wounded badly and is fighting for her life. Mitch is afraid that just when he has found the one, she will be taken from him. A ghost from his past has reappeared and is trying to take the most precious thing in his life. He won’t allow it to happen, he can’t.
As they wait for news of Jes’s fate, Mitch, Brett and Becca will stop at nothing to make sure that whoever is responsible for her attack is caught. But this ghost has more sinister plans; plans that can change their lives forever. Can they stop her before she finishes the job?
Finding Their Rhythm
​
Two young boys. A friendship that lasts a lifetime. A dream that they refuse to give up on.
Who would’ve thought that matching band t-shirts would be the beginning of a multi-decade friendship? That’s exactly what happened with Brett Winters and Mitch Lansing. From the time they met in middle school, the two were inseparable, quickly becoming more like brothers.
Fast forward a few years and no one gets them in their haughty Atlanta high school, so they spend their time with a few carefully chosen friends, bonding over stolen beer and their love of music. The boys dream of a life in rock n’ roll and their band, Peanuts Envy, is going to be their ticket to the big time.
Finally in college, the bond gets tested, girls get in the way, and they find themselves on different paths. What began as a childhood dream in a greasy car garage could end up being the very thing that will force them to part.
