Series: Hope & Hearts from Swan Harbor

Enjoy this steamy, small-town romantic suspense series with a sense of family, and let the power of love sweep you away.

The word cloak means to cover, hide, or disguise.

Would you shed yours and expose your heart for love?

Veterinarian Emma Foster arrives in Swan Harbor with her goal list in one hand and clinging to the many layers of her cloak with the other. But she didn't anticipate the lure of the small town or the pull of a man's magnetic blue eyes. Their potent combination threatens to derail her well-ordered plans.

Investigator Killian Reade has used his good looks, flirty talk, and sexy accent to layer masks over his true self - until a flash of yellow peels off one, and the people of Swan Harbor add cracks in another. But when Emma looks through him instead of at him, he's forced to take a journey - one that has him searching for the man he's meant to be.

As their barriers begin to fade, an off-hand comment made by Emma leads Killian to uncover disturbing behavior in their small town. When all is revealed, will they wrap the layers tighter, or will they allow love in and set their hearts free?

Sophie crafts small-town mystery romances that weave intricate plots with richly developed characters. Her female leads are intelligent, resourceful, and resilient, while her male characters, often stubborn, exude sexiness, wit, and a protective nature. She delights in building slow-burn romances, savoring the tension and delaying that first kiss for as long as possible. No matter the trope, every story she writes has a happy ending.After a fulfilling 30-plus-year career as a speech-language pathologist, working with adult post-stroke and Parkinson's patients, she is enjoying her new journey. With their four children spread out, Sophie and her husband live in South Florida. They share their home with a spoiled dog named Bandit and an equally pampered cat named Irma.
