Desert Secrets & Found Family

Reading Order: Book One

A house in the desert, an old journal, and the secrets they keep.

Cali Clarke is a successful product designer in San Francisco, who lives for work and happy hours with her best friend, or at least she did until her mother’s unexpected passing. Since then, nothing feels quite right. But when her efforts to settle her mother’s estate reveal a secret house in New Mexico, Cali finds herself with pressing questions. Knowing her only hope for answers is in that house, she drops everything to go.

The high desert is a complete change of pace, forcing Cali to down-shift from incessant emails to watching literal paint dry. It’s almost bearable, until she unearths her mother’s journal from thirty years prior. With answers about the past so close, Cali has to decide if the glimpses into her mother’s life are worth the pain they stir up in her own.

Cali's only reprieve comes from befriending a vivacious local coffee shop owner and the handsome and hopefully single bartender down the road. But when hidden family secrets surface, Cali discovers her own life isn’t as black and white as she thought.

With her friendships and career on the line, can Cali make peace with her past before she destroys her future?

ONE SUNSET IN TAOS

Second Chances & Art is Power

Reading Order: 1.5

How do you move forward when everything you want is in the past?

Alex Rodriguez is the kind of guy who lets life happen to him. Because why not? Doing so landed him a job he likes and the chance to work on his art as he pleases. It also brought him Cali Clarke, the gorgeous out-of-towner searching for answers in Taos. She alone was proof wonderful things happen when you drift in the tide.

But when Cali unexpectedly leaves, without so much as a goodbye, Alex finds himself on shaky ground. How can his sepia-toned life in the desert be enough after his technicolor summer with her?

Along with the help of his family, Alex slowly puts the pieces of himself back together. He tries new things, pushes the edge of his comfort zone, and finds solace in his art. With every creation, Alex lets go of his pain and in turn, lets go of her.

With his sense of self hanging in the balance, can Alex heal from the gaping hole Cali left behind? Or will Cali find her way back too late, after he’s forgotten her entirely?
