Renovating Hearts

Widower Jack Ransom’s family-owned café is going bankrupt. He needs help, but not the kind his eight-year-old daughter dreamed up. Writing a letter to her favorite television celebrity, Sydney Ryan, star of Ryan to the Rescue, is bad enough. Now the station decides to use his restaurant and sends the star to seal the deal.

Chef Sydney Ryan built an empire turning around failing restaurants. If she doesn’t get Jack’s approval, her latest episode could be her last. With her contract up for renewal, she does what’s needed to make everyone but the handsome, stubborn owner happy.

Reviews for Renovating Hearts
Renovating Hearts is a well written fun journey. The male characters and strong women had depth and deep emotion. I smiled and by Chapter Seven I was in tears. Kira is a true word crafter and I applaud this book.

Renovating Hearts made me feel warm and cozy like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day. I could picture the snow and small-town scenery. The characters came alive, and I became immersed in their stories and couldn’t wait for the happy ending. Renovating Hearts was an entertaining and heartwarming story. I look forward to more from this author!

Renovating Hearts is a feel-good story showcasing the importance of letting people in and allowing love to find you. Kira creates images of idyllic winter scenery and warm, compassionate characters that will draw in readers. They will picture themselves sipping coffee by the fire in Joe’s Café surrounded by the people of Silver Ridge. This is a can’t miss holiday book!

Will these two be able to put aside their differences while they bring Sprinkles back to its former glory and mend their broken hearts in the process?

Reviews for Cotton Candy Dreams and Chocolate Chip Kisses
The descriptions of the beach were so detailed and brought me back to my own wonderful memories of the beach. It is a very uplifting story of overcoming personal struggles and past hurts and repairing a childhood relationship and the associated misunderstandings.
Lauren D.

What a delightful short story! This is a story about hope and forgiveness. It was an easy read and so uplifting in spirit. A story any reader from teen to adult will enjoy. It reminds us that sometimes second chances are like a breath of fresh air: unexpected but so refreshing!
Sandy S.

This short story is just as sweet as its title implies. Kira creates an entire history and an incredible relationship between Avery and Tanner. Between the descriptive imagery and the attention to details, the characters and scenery come to life. I wish I could visit  Sprinkles.

Sometimes I Write About Writing…

Off the Beaten Path

Off the Beaten Path

Sometimes the most direct way isn’t always the best. This is true for road trips, writing, and life. By changing one thing, taking one detour, or making one decision over another can impact the outcome. Most of the time for the better.

Bucket List

Bucket List

A few weeks ago, I watched The Bucket List, starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. I found the movie interesting, as it dealt with two terminally ill men who create a bucket list of things to do before they die. Both humorous and sad, the plot raised a question to my writer mind.
