It feels like yesterday that this anthology was going up for sale after a hurricane ripped through the Caribbean. But the time has come to take down One Love, a Jamaica Hurricane Relief Anthology. All of the proceeds from this charity anthology will go to hurricane relief efforts in Jamaica. This anthology, in 3 volumes, has over 60 romances filled with favorite tropes including friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, unexpected proposals (and maybe a secret baby), unrecognized billionaires, brother’s best friend, and more.
My story in this anthology (Vol. 2), Luke’s Last Hot Summer, is a novella in my Kingsmill Courtships series starring Luke Mosby, a former lawyer and surf shop owner who reluctantly returns to his home in the Virginia mountains only to find the peace and love he’s been searching for in the arms of Dr. Hllyo Wythe, a woman running away from her own past. This is a romantic and poignant romance of two lost souls afraid on missing out on their happily ever after, who end up at the same wedding, and decide they can’t fall in love… until they do.
But hurry because this anthology comes down on March 25, 2026. And while I love being a part of these anthologies, hopefully there will be no need for another charity project this year.
One Love
A Jamaica Hurricane Relief Anthology, Volumes 1, 2, & 3
On October 28 , 2025, a devastatingly powerful Category 5 Hurricane Melissa slammed into the beautiful island of Jamaica. We all watched, helpless, as Jamaicans braced for the storm that destroyed countless homes and businesses and decimated the nation’s infrastructure.
60 romance authors have banded together to try to make a difference by releasing this three-volume anthology with 100% of royalties going to a reputable charity helping those in affected areas. Enjoy these stories of hope and love and help us support those affected by the hurricane by celebrating one love of the Jamaican people.
Wi likkle but wi tallawah. We are small but we are mighty.

Luke’s Last Hot Summer
He’s running from his past while she’s racing toward her future… but love is about to change everything.
Luke Mosby has always been the black sheep of his family. While his five brothers settled down in Kingsmill, Virginia, Luke gave up practicing law to open a surf shop in Miami and seek out adventure. From fighting forest fires to riding bulls in rodeos, he’s built a life far from home, avoiding the feeling that he doesn’t quite belong. But now, for the first time in years, he’s heading back to Kingsmill for his cousin’s wedding—a reunion he dreads with his now-married brothers who seem to have it all figured out.
Dr. Holly Wythe thought she was ready for a change of pace. After leaving Boston’s busy hospitals behind, she’s taken a job in small-town Kingsmill, hoping to find the peace that’s eluded her. But her journey takes an unexpected turn when she’s forced to share a ride with Luke Mosby—a man who is everything she isn’t: free-spirited, spontaneous, and determined to live life by his own rules.
As they drive to Kingsmill and they hit unexpected delays, sparks fly between the wandering adventurer and the structured doctor. Can they find common ground in a place they both want to call home, or will Luke’s fear of being an outcast keep him from the love he never saw coming?
