The Mercer Family Series book 1
I’ve been a single dad for five years. Then the wrong woman rented the guest cabin behind my house, and I knew right then she was going to ruin everything.
When Baylor's mother walked out, I made a promise—I'd be enough. Just the two of us. No one to disappoint her. No one else to leave.
Then Emelia Greene rolled into Echo Lake in a Mercedes and a power suit to convince the townspeople to change what makes our small town great. She’s everything this place isn't.
Emelia's not supposed to be kind. She's not supposed to be good with my daughter. She's definitely not supposed to be the one I find myself confiding in at the end of my dock every night.
She's leaving in three months. I know that.
The problem is, I can't stop wondering what it would be like if a woman like her belonged in a place like this.
In a life like mine.
About the authors:
Piper Rayne is an Amazon Top 100 and USA Today Bestselling Author duo who believes in soft places to land, big laughs, and happily-ever-afters.
Piper runs on tea. Rayne runs on Diet Coke. But they both have one boy and one girl and are married to men who patiently listen to book talk they’ll never quite understand.
Piper’s the one who turns up the heat and humor—spinning tension, spark, and steam into moments that make you blush into your pillow and grin through the next chapter.
Rayne’s the one who tugs on your heartstrings—mixing locker-room laughs, brotherhood banter, and the kind of heart-punch moments that hit when you least expect them.
Together, they create stories that feel like family—sometimes found, sometimes blood—but always the kind that stays with you long after the final word.
At the end of the day, Piper and Rayne write love stories that they hope feel real, funny, with just the right amount of steam… ones that make your heart race and your world a little warmer.
