About the author

Ciara is a USA Today and Amazon Bestselling and award-winning author of heartwarming, small-town contemporary and historical romances.

Her contemporary stories are hailed as "Hallmark movie-worthy." The popular Sweetwater County series takes readers into a southern town filled with family trials, friendly competition, and community love.
