Opposites Attract – A pairing made up of two completely different people that embrace their differences and fall in love.
My newest release, Summer Drifter, is a classic opposites-attract story – the gruff hardworking cowboy and the pink-haired millionaire are complete opposites in so many ways, not just money or social stats, but life experience and goals. It makes for an awesome story where our heroes finally find a way to connect despite the differences In fact, a lot of my books feature this trope only because I love writing it so much and I love the opposites-attract conflict! Other books where this theme features heavily include
Promise – the cop and the convict – add in a child and the single dad story has a lot of twists and turns.
Crooked Tree Ranch – cowboy and the city slicker
The Heart of Texas – the rancher and the oil millionaire.

A cop bound by the law. An ex-con shackled by his past. One stolen kiss that changes everything.
Leo Byrne has never questioned his place in the world—adopted into the sprawling Byrnes family, surrounded by love, and dedicated to his job as a cop. Romance has never been on his radar, but watching his best friends build new families sparks a quiet longing for something more. When he shares a kiss with Jason Banks at an event honoring the former convict’s heroism, it should mean nothing. But when Jason and his daughter have nowhere left to turn, Leo steps in to help, knowing full well that taking them into his home is a risk. Falling for the guarded ex-con? That’s a danger Leo never saw coming.
Jason made a deal to protect his daughter and paid for it with years behind bars. Fighting wildfires as a convict volunteer gave him purpose, but now that he’s free, he has nothing—no home, no job, and no way to shield Daisy from the man who still sees her as leverage. The only safe place left is in the arms of the cop, who shouldn’t want anything to do with him. But Jason knows the truth has a way of destroying everything in its path, and if Leo discovers the secrets he’s still keeping, Jason might lose the only chance he has at love—and the only family he’s ever wanted.

Ryker is hockey royalty, Jacob is a poor country boy. Can two vastly different people find common ground and become the men they want to be?
Ryker comes from a long line of championship-winning hockey players. Playing college hockey to develop his game is his only focus, and nothing will stand in the way of him working to become the best player. He has no room for relationships, people who point out his flaws, or anyone who calls him on his dreams. He certainly has no place for love, and meeting Jacob is nothing but a useful distraction on the side. After all, trying to get his Owatonna Eagles teammate into bed is less work and more play. When tragedy rocks his family, his charmed life crumbles, and the only person he can turn to is the same one who claims to hate him.
Jacob Benson has only known hard work and stifling conservative values his whole life. Born and raised in the small rural community of Eden Crossing, Minnesota, he’s the only son of a hard-working but struggling dairy farming family. Jacob is using his skills in hockey to finance his way to an agricultural science degree. These four years at Owatonna U. will probably be the only time he has to enjoy life, gain acceptance about his sexuality, and live openly before his inevitable return to the farm. Running into a pretty rich boy like Ryker Madsen is putting a damper on his enjoyment of life away from home. Ryker’s flip, conceited, carefree attitude grates on Jacob’s every nerve. So why, if Ryker is everything he dislikes, does he want nothing more than to explore the sinful dreams that his annoying teammate stars in every night?
