Kick things off with The Tree Line.

Out past the last fence, where the forest thickens and the light gets strange, Miles and Celeste thought they had found peace. But when strangers begin to emerge from the trees, their quiet life turns into a waking nightmare.

​

Told in gripping, bite-sized chapters, The Tree Line is a slow-burn psychological thriller that blurs the line between home and horror, trust and paranoia, love and survival.

REAL LOVE IS REALLY COMPLICATED

​

I was used to tucking away my feelings. For years, being married to Gid’s dad, Luke, was like walking on eggshells. Every step I took was deliberate and purposeful. I never knew what would set him off. I needed something to break me from this prison that I allowed myself to reside in. I knew immediately that seeing Memphis was a sign, that my attraction was a wake-up call, and that this was the time for my  jailbreak.
 

Find out how a random encounter can set the wheels of love in motion by reading K. Rutter's debut women's fiction novel, Love, Memphis.  

​

It was strangely intense, almost as if we were willing our bodies to travel back in time to that age when we would have liked to experience each other for the first time. It left me sore for four days. The good kind of sore. A reminder with each step that Memphis had been inside of me.

Love, Memphis is recommended for audiences 18+

Read the back-cover blurb below

Rhya Collman is a dreamer. In fact, she has lived vicariously through her dreams for the last 20 years in an effort to escape the realities of daily life with her husband, Luke. After experiencing a surprising, love-at-first-sight encounter with her son’s art instructor, Memphis, her fantasies come alive. He unknowingly sets her soul on fire, igniting desires that she didn’t know existed, but her longing is disrupted when he abruptly disappears from the art school. One year later, after a period of self-growth and reflection that results in divorcing her husband, Rhya reconnects with the man who has unknowingly invaded the very depths of her. Her connection with Memphis is intense; they share long, steamy nights that take intimacy to new levels while she learns to embrace her own personal desires. Rhya embodies a love for Memphis that most can only imagine, and their love story moves forward on a trajectory she controls. She proves there are different ways to find the strength to follow one’s own path in life and that second chances are not only possible but can be magical. The story concludes with a revelation that unravels the truth, revealing how Rhya learned to love herself. From exploring deep emotions to pushing the boundaries in the bedroom, Love, Memphis chronicles how a woman can find happiness in many roles: romantic partner, devoted mother, career-minded employee, and fun, playful friend. This is an unforgettable debut showcasing the complexities that accompany the simplicity of love.
