Welcome to Worthbridge, where danger runs deep, and love cuts deeper.
The Worth It Series is a collection of MM romantic suspense novels set against the backdrop of a tight-knit seaside town scarred by secrets, haunted by crime, and held together by the people who fight to protect it. Firefighters. Paramedics. Police officers. Teachers. Survivors. Each book explores the lives of men who’ve seen the worst the world has to offer—yet still find the strength to love, to heal, and to fight like hell for the ones who matter.
Start with Worth the Wait, where second chances ignite between ex-soldier Nathan Carter and local copper Freddie Webb as they reunite under the shadow of a growing trafficking ring. Then follow the heat to Worth the Fight, where cocky firefighter Reece Morgan and guarded paramedic Trent find something real in the ashes of their past. And soon…meet Jude, the schoolteacher who swore he’d never fall again—until an unlikely hero challenges everything he thought he knew in Worth the Risk.
In Worth It, love isn’t soft. It’s earned. It’s messy. It’s painful and protective and pulsing with life.
And in Worthbridge, it’s always worth the risk.
Worth the wait
(Worth it Book 1)
It was never over. It was just waiting.
Nathan Carter didn’t return to Worthbridge looking for a second chance. He came back for a roof over his head, a job that pays, and maybe, if he’s lucky, a way to connect with the teenage son he’s barely known. Life in the army taught him how to survive, but not how to be a father… and definitely not how to live with the choices he made the day he walked away from everything—including Freddie Webb.
PC Freddie Webb never left Worthbridge. Not the town. Not the ghosts. Steady, dependable, the man everyone trusts to hold the line when things fall apart, he’s spent years keeping his head down and his heart locked up tight. But all that control shatters the moment a routine arrest at the local skatepark throws him face to face with the boy he once loved… and the son that boy now has.
What started between them as teenagers was messy, intense, and unforgettable. Sixteen years later, it’s no less complicated. Especially with Alfie, Nathan’s angry, guarded son, caught between them and already spiralling toward trouble.
As old desires resurface and old wounds reopen, Nathan and Freddie are pulled back into each other’s orbit. But with the whole town watching, tensions rising, and the past refusing to stay buried, they’ll have to decide: play it safe… or risk everything for the love they never got to finish.
Because in Worthbridge, history never really lets you go.
And some men are worth every second of the wait.
worth the fight
(worth it Book 2)
It was never going to be just one night. Not when it burned this hot.
Firefighter Reece Morgan is the station flirt. Tattooed, reckless, and always up for a laugh or a hook-up. He’s made a name for himself across Worthbridge, and he’s fine with that. No strings. No drama. No need for more.
Until that one heated night in a sauna with a certain paramedic changes everything.
Trent Lawson thought it would be just sex. One night to forget, to shut off the noise inside his head. But the fire Reece ignites won’t stop burning. Not in his skin. Not in his chest. Not when every emergency throws them back together, stoking something far deeper, and far more dangerous.
Reece isn’t used to caring. Not really. But Trent isn’t just another fling. Behind his sharp tongue and cool control, Reece sees the exhaustion, the cracks, the way Trent’s numbing himself with all the wrong things. And for once, Reece doesn’t want to walk away. He wants to fight. For Trent. For every kiss denied and every glance that means too much.
But when the flames turn deadly and the danger hits close to home, Trent must face the past he’s been running from and decide if Reece is the one thing worth stepping into the flames for.
Because in Worthbridge, things are hotting up.
And some fires are worth every bit of the fight.

worth it book 3)
The past is never buried. Confronting it, though, that's the biggest risk.
Jude Ellison thought he’d escaped him. A new town, a quiet job, and two years of hard-earned peace. But when his abusive ex walks out of prison on early release and straight into his flat, Jude finds himself trapped all over again. Only this time, the cage is quieter, and the bruises are invisible. Callum Reid never needed fists to destroy him. He only needed time.
Warren Price is the new PE teacher at Worthbridge Secondary. Or so everyone thinks. In truth, he’s an undercover officer investigating the resurgence of a trafficking network with old ties and new victims. His prime suspect? Jude’s ex.
But Warren’s mission changes the moment he meets Jude. What begins as surveillance soon becomes something far more dangerous: a connection Warren didn’t expect, and a desire he doesn’t yet understand. As he starts to uncover the truth about the man behind closed doors, Warren is forced to question his assignment, his identity—and his heart.
Because Jude isn’t the target.
He’s the reason Warren can’t walk away.
And some loves are worth risking breaking the rules for.
