When Mr. Michael Coulton-Jones came back in the picture in volume 3, I could write more romantic scenes between him and Phoebe. :) I had a good time doing that.

Secrets, disguises, and a sudden encounter in the woods… Step into the world of Lady Wynwood’s Spies , a Christian Regency romantic suspense series filled with clever heroines, hidden dangers, and a dash of irreverent humor.

Magazine writer September Yu has a great idea for an article—a “how to” piece on renewing one’s wedding vows on a budget. Her only problem? She’s missing a husband that her boss wants her to bring along for research. With her boyfriend across the country, there’s no other man she can turn to but her annoyingly handsome coworker.
