Love doesn’t wait to be invited in…
Ainsley Faraday specializes in the management of boutique hotels in sleek urban settings, so she is reluctant to accept her employer’s latest challenge to take over a mom-and-pop property in Santa Fe and turn it into a shining example of high-toned elegance. Even though she has no desire to be surrounded with lonely mountain ranges and coyote skulls, she can’t resist a challenge that might put her within reach of a corner office at headquarters.
Rock music celebrity Greer Davis’s protective bubble of stardom bursts after a night of wanton partying results in a public disaster of epic proportions. Totally unprepared for the scathing turn of events, Greer heads for the hills-literally. She assumes a new identity and returns to her roots in Northern New Mexico just as her latest album debuts at number one on the charts.
When Ainsley and Greer meet on a flight to the Land of Enchantment, love is the last thing on either of their minds, but tall mountain vistas, big blue skies, and hot, hot green chili all combine to create a rush of endorphins begging for release.

Getting born is trickier than Spanky ever imagined.
Yearning for life, Spanky chooses Nina, a flighty actress just out of college, and Rick, a sax player who changes tires to get by, to be his parents. Only Nina seems to be hung up on her gay guy friend Pablo, and Nina’s best girlfriend Dink is hung up her! Will Nina and Rick get it together in time to conceive Spanky before he evaporates? And if this hurdle gets crossed, will they choose to keep him?
There’s not much Spanky can do but watch from above while his fate plays out-and if that’s not scary enough-an unexpected twist of fate makes Spanky have to completely reevaluate his expectations. He’s a girl!
A poignant, hilarious, unforgettable look at life, love, gender, and the essence of what makes us who we are.
