Maddie and Nate Series
Love is forever. But timing is everything.
Is your soulmate always your soulmate, no matter when — or how — you meet?
For unconventional, ambitious engineer Maddie and loyal, strait-laced lawyer Nate, there seems no way to stop their worlds colliding. And when they do, the spark ignites. Every time.
From the first flush of youth, to the frustrations and responsibilities of middle age, to the cautious freedom of the golden years...love grows in the cracks of each fractured heart, following them across continents and challenging their plans. But depending on when they meet, Time either plays nice, or makes a fool of their principles and those they abandon. Because some people are meant to be together — whatever the cost.
Maddie & Nate is a dual POV series that follows two soulmates through three variations of their lives — each time with a different meeting point: late in life (Out of Time), mid-life (Next Time), and early (Our Time). Their story explores the complexities of romance and intimacy at every stage.
Out of Time
Life has a time limit. Love doesn’t.
For most of her 78 years, Maddie Cole has done things the ‘wrong’ way. But throwing out the societal rule book meant sacrificing romantic success for career highs — a move she’s never regretted...much. Now retired, she relishes the freedom to travel with her only daughter, Anne. Their latest trip is a long weekend in picturesque Bar Harbor, and Maddie is determined to enjoy every last minute.
Octogenarian Nate Jacobs has always taken pride in doing things the ‘right’ way. He built a successful legal career by following the rules, and now, retired and widowed, he runs a tight ship at the Hope Point Lighthouse B&B. Perhaps that’s why Maddie, with her disregard for convention, catches his eye.
When Anne is unexpectedly called away on work business, Maddie finds herself compelled to stay on at Hope Point, alone. Over breakfast conversations and long walks, Nate and Maddie’s friendship deepens, even as old memories return to haunt them.
Except this time, the past starts to clear a path for the future...

Two strangers. One bar. Bad timing?
The night Maddie Cole and Nate Jacobs find themselves in the same place, at the same moment, with an hour to kill...a spark ignites. Engineer Maddie’s determination to conquer a male-dominated industry captivates Nate’s imagination, even as his steadfast loyalty starts a glow in Maddie’s heart.
But with marriages and children in tow, anything more than friendship would mean social and emotional carnage.
As Maddie and Nate’s paths continue to cross professionally, their affections blossom into a force that can’t be ignored. And one night, when nature conspires to force them together, their resolve unravels completely.
The question is, will imploding their personal lives end in heartache, or a soulmate?
This is the second iteration of Maddie and Nate’s love story, set in the midst of the 1970’s where the constraints of the era and their responsibilities change this love’s trajectory forever
