The Paradise Proposal

On the Starlight River, love has a way of resurfacing — especially when a little magic is involved.

Kate Cooper comes home to Cypress Grove with a maxed-out credit card and no real plan beyond helping her mother run the tiki bar perched beside the legendary Paradise Springs. What she doesn't expect is magic stirring in the air… or Damien Hastings walking back into her life.

Her first crush. Her almost. The one she never quite got over.

Damien is only home for a few short months before returning to his dangerous work as a wildfire firefighter, and Kate knows better than to fall for someone with an expiration date. But in a town where herbal remedies actually work, well-meaning witches have few boundaries, and the springs seem to amplify buried feelings, resisting him may be impossible.

As long fall nights turn into stolen moments by the enchanted water, Kate must decide whether protecting her heart matters more than risking it — especially when a little magic might be nudging her toward a second chance.

The Paradise Proposal is a cozy, magical, closed-door romance set in the world of the Crescent Moon Mysteries, featuring small-town magic, instant soul-deep connection, and happily-ever-afters that arrive faster than expected.

Perfect for readers who enjoy Hallmark-style romances with emotional certainty (closed-door, feel-good love stories), cozy small-town romance with a touch of everyday magic, found family, insta-love without spice, and guaranteed happy endings.
