Greetings and salutations. I’m R.L. Merrill—you can call me Ro (she/her)—and I’m here to bring you some hope. That’s right. Times have been increasingly dark in our world and it’s easy to be overwhelmed by life around us and lose direction. That’s why it’s so important to hold onto the things that give us hope. Some folks cling to their faith in times of trouble. Sometimes folks will emotionally check out in order to maintain some semblance of normalcy in their lives.

Summary: Torn apart by circumstance. Reunited in love. Love and Second Chances Books 1-3 is a collection of three contemporary and steamy second chance romance stories: Solace, Gravity and Beloved. Solace: A second chance romance about friendship, new beginnings, and putting the pieces back together. It's been two years since the divorce. I'm still raw. A little lost. Out of nowhere, I cross paths online with Rae, my college love. When we've taken some time to catch up, she offers the last thing I expect: an invitation to visit her in Ireland. It's the chance of a lifetime, but could it also mean a second chance with the one woman I've never forgotten? Gravity: A love like a force of nature. A second chance. Their last chance. Caroline and I had an intense and passionate relationship, but we overwhelmed each other's lives. I forced myself to walk away, but I've never stopped looking back. I didn't expect to see her again, but life is full of surprises. We've both changed and grown, and I want to discover who she is now and if we can share a future together. Can I convince her to take a chance on me one last time? Beloved: Confronting the past isn’t always easy, especially when you’ve made the biggest mistake of your life. Aisling and I were engaged to be married. I loved her, and I couldn’t imagine life without her by my side. Everything changed when an anonymous stranger sent me a letter claiming she was cheating on me. It was a lie, but it cast doubt in my heart and derailed our relationship. Years have passed, and when I hear from her out of the blue, I'm not sure what to think. I've missed her more than I care to admit, but we parted on uncomfortable terms. Should I give her another chance? Reader Note: This collection contains three novella-length F/F contemporary romance books featuring sapphic love and adult language.

Summary: "What happened, anyway?" "Simple. I fell in." County archaeologist Steve Saunders desperately wants his latest dig to be a success. Too many people think he’s too young for the job, and besides, the chance to track down the town’s missing priory is too good to miss. But the dig seems to be jinxed. The weather’s awful, the clients want the land back to build an apartment block, and the clients' representative tries every dodgy trick in the book. On top of that there’s a strange, unfriendly atmosphere about the place. Could that be why the priory disappeared so thoroughly? And what’s the link to the unusual stairs Steve’s assistant Jon finds in the cloister trench? Throughout everything, Jon proves to be an invaluable support. But when he tries a trick of his own, he sets off a chain of events that lead to a result nobody, least of all Steve, expects.
