Finding Zara: Esperance Valley: Book One Kindle Edition

I came back to Esperance, NC, my life in ruins, drowning in debt, desperately needing to make up for my mistakes. I want to sweep the cobwebs from my great Aunt’s old house, not be swept off my feet. Then I fall (literally) into the arms of the handyman I’ve hired to help me fix up the house.

Matt Cooper is undeniably hot. The way he moves, the way his eyes pierce me, the way his lips feel on mine.
I know I can’t afford to trust anyone again; I’ve been down that road before and too many people got hurt. It’s why I’m in this mess in the first place.

But I can take the no strings attached, sizzling hot sex Matt offers, knowing it’ll be over when I sell the house and leave town.

All I have to do is not fall in love with him in the meantime. Easy, right?

If our books were chocolate, they'd be wasabi flavored - sweet and hot.

Who are we?

We're two sisters, Susan and Kate, who live on opposite sides of the world and decided after a year of closed borders to write romance novels together!

Australian born and bred, Kate moved to Germany in 2001 and has been there ever since. Between us, we have five children and three dogs and we've always shared a love of reading, passed down to us through our mother and grandparents. Our pseudonym, Mary Waterford, honors our maternal grandmother (one of her favorite authors was Maeve Binchy!)

We both believe that reading - regardless of the genre - offers an escape from real life; whether it's chasing criminals with Eve Dallas or fighting for our lives with Katniss or riding in a carriage through Regency London with Mr. Beaumaris, reading is more important now, in these crazy times, than ever.

Our goal is to offer our readers that same escape, with relatable, loveable characters and locations that take you out of the lounge room and into the quiet sleepy beach town of Blessed Inlet, or into the hustle and bustle of New York City.

Our first book, “Birthday Gift”, came out in October 2021 exclusively on Kindle and we're so excited. Watch this space for updates or sign up to our newsletter.

We can't wait for you to get to know us!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finding Zara
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2023
This book takes the reader on a roller coaster ride that pulls you into the story and keeps you guessing about what’s going to happen next. The main characters, Zara and Matt are very well-drawn and share incredible chemistry. Their story has some unexpected sweet parts and plenty of angst as well as some twists and turns I didn’t see coming.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2023
This is the fourth book I've read written by Mary Waterford; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

This is the first book in the Esperance Valley Series; it is a stand-alone book. The story is about Zara & Matt; she returns to North Carolina after inheriting the rundown house from her childhood; he’s the handyman who agrees to help her fix it up.
