LETTING GO
Book One
“This was an entertaining, touching and heartfelt book that pulled the heartstrings. You won’t be able to put this one down.” Reader Review
For seventeen years, pharmaceutical chemist Callie Winters has built a secure life for her son in San Francisco, burying the trauma of their past. But when a corporate upheaval forces her to Jackson’s Bridge—a remote mountain town nestled beneath the Colorado Rockies—her tightly controlled world quickly begins to unravel.
Tasked with persuading a botanical cooperative to license their breakthrough product, Callie finds herself drawn into the rhythms of the tight-knit community, and the life of Dave Woods—a man who makes her feel safe even though her world is falling apart. As the scent of raspberry and lavender drifts across the fields of his family’s herb farm, and the charm of Jackson’s Bridge takes hold, Callie glimpses a future she once hoped could be hers.
But just as her heart is unlocked and her dreams rekindled, her son discovers secret letters holding the truth about his father’s death and the people who once tore their family apart. As she races against time to save him from the truth, Callie must choose again—fight to preserve the life she built, or risk everything on the promise of starting over.
“I was captivated from the first page until the final line was read and I wanted more. Letting Go is a well written, emotional read with wonderful characters.” Reader Review
STARTING OVER
Book Two
“I laughed, cried and cheered for all the characters. It’s a highly entertaining, heartwarming, easy to pick up and hard to put down read.” Reader Review
Callie Winters thought starting over in a remote mountain town would be simple—a slower pace, a meaningful job, and a chance to build something real. But when she’s thrust into a leadership role she never expected—and drawn into helping a teenage girl with a secret—Callie is forced to choose between the integrity that has always kept her world steady and the promise of a life and love she thought had passed her by.
Dave Woods has dedicated his life to protecting his community and the people who depend on it. But when his mother is forced out of the family business, and the foster boy who sees him as a father figure risks losing his home, Dave is confronted with what he’s been avoiding—the fear that his place in the family he treasures was accidental, and that he’s living a life meant for someone else.
As they learn they don’t need to face everything alone, Callie and Dave discover what they should have known all along—that love, loyalty, and belonging aren’t fragile things. They grow stronger when you have the courage to claim your place, even when it’s hard.
“This is a heartwarming addition to the Jackson’s Bridge series. While Starting Over can be read as a standalone you’ll want to read Letting Go first. Angela writes such moving stories, you won’t want to miss how it all began.” Reader Review
“This is a journey about healing, midlife crisis, and finding strength in family and friends. It’s a heartfelt romance that touched me on so many levels.” Reader Review
The Jackson’s Bridge Series is perfect for readers who love:
- Heartwarming and emotional stories with emotional depth
- Clean and closed-door romantic women’s fiction set in small towns
- Character-driven series with themes of love, friendship, family, community, and second chances
- Romance that grows steadily over time
Both books stand alone but are best read in order, and are the first stories in an ongoing series—ideal for library patrons looking for a new author to follow.
