Still the One
by Jem Johnson
Part 1 of the Stillwater Springs series
In the second act of life, will she finally come first?After decades of holding everyone else together, Celia Hart returns to Stillwater Springs burned out and broken-hearted. Her marriage is over, her grown son still needs mothering, and her father's slipping memory means he needs more help than she can give. The hometown that once felt too small now feels too full of ghosts-especially Bo Porter, the boy next door turned man she never stopped wanting.Once upon a time, Bo and Celia were inseparable. Until high school turned him into the golden boy: football star, prom king, and boyfriend to the head cheerleader. Celia was the quiet one, the fixer, the friend who faded into the background. And even now, with Bo widowed and her own husband long gone-run back to his first love, no less-she can't shake the feeling that she's always been someone's second choice.Surrounded by old girlfriends with their own unfinished business, Celia wonders if it's not too late to choose herself. To love without losing. And to stop surviving long enough to actually live.Heartfelt, sexy, and full of bone-deep truth, Still the One is a story for every woman who thought she had to earn rest, prove her worth, or carry it all alone. Sometimes, coming home isn't about starting over-it's about finally letting yourself belong.

Still Got It
by Jem Johnson
Part 2 of the Stillwater Springs series
After holding everyone else together, will she finally accept the challenge of letting go.Lana Russo has spent nearly fifty years holding it all together-her family, her friends, her law practice. Everyone's crisis had her name on the speed dial. But when her marriage crumbles and her kids keep boomeranging back to her house, Lana decides to try online dating to get out of the house. The results? Men too old looking for a nurse, and men too young looking for a purse.Then there's the man at the bar with a wicked grin who has an opinion on every one of Lana's dating disasters. He's steady where others waver, charming where others bore, and infuriatingly sure that what she calls complication, he calls chemistry. Their banter turns into something else-something she swears will only last one night. Until he shows up the next day in court. As if her professional life wasn't enough, there's plenty waiting at home: an ex-husband sneaking women through her basement door, one daughter facing down her husband's betrayal, another so overqualified the job market won't touch her, and a third treating Lana's house like a storage locker between flights. Add in the biggest case of her career and a friendship she's desperate to repair, and Lana's juggling act is already at capacity. No wonder she's starting to think that being Superwoman is overrated.Sharp, sexy, and achingly real, Still Got It is a love story for every woman who's ever carried the world on her shoulders and wondered if she'd missed her chance. Because sometimes the bravest thing you can do isn't to keep fixing-it's to finally let go.
