A Tad Too Much

Tracey Cramer-Kelly

When tough is not enough…

When Shay MacLaughlin inherits her father’s ramshackle apartment buildings in California, she’s forced to return to her small home town. The plan is to get in, sell the buildings, and get out. But the potential financial ruin is worse than she imagined. Just being headstrong isn’t going to be enough to fix this mess. Then her brother’s friend steps in to help. Growing up, a rich kid like him never paid attention to a poor kid like her, but now their meeting sparks a new flame.


When perfection is not enough….

From the outside looking in, self-professed control freak and real estate lawyer Thaddeus “Tad” Haugen has it all, including a wealthy family and high-society women drooling over him. But something’s missing. He thought maybe God was the answer, but it’s still hard to believe he doesn’t have to be perfect to be loved. Could the feisty redhead he’s agreed to help show him what true love and emotional intimacy really means?



Let go and let God…

As the new friends Shay makes at the Iron Zebra Bar & Grill start to become the found family she didn’t know she was missing, she’s second guessing her impulse to cut and run. And then there’s Tad. He tugs at her heart, but they come from different worlds. When Shay’s life is threatened, Tad will be forced to confront the ultimate exercise in letting go of control. Will they have the courage to give it to God and find the true meaning of unconditional love?
