Detailed Content Warnings

As romantic suspense, each book in the Spruce Hill series features on-page, open-door steamy scenes, along with swearing and some degree of suspense. There may be a limited amount of on-page physical violence as well as the threat of peril facing one or more characters. As a general reassurance, no animals or children are ever harmed in my books.

Should you wish for more detailed content warnings (aside from what’s listed at the front of each book) that may contain spoilers, please scroll down to the book in question. If you have a concern and want to find out which books might contain that topic without spoilers, please feel free to use the “contact us” form to ask!
