The Lovelight Series in Order

About the Lovelight series

Series Premise

The series follows a group of lifelong friends in Inglewild who own or work at interconnected small businesses (a Christmas tree farm, a bakery, a tattoo studio, a restaurant, etc.). Each book centers on one friend/couple as they navigate love, personal growth, and small-town life while facing challenges like business struggles, past heartbreak, family expectations, or self-doubt. The stories feature classic romance tropes (friends-to-lovers, fake dating, grumpy/sunshine, second chances, forced proximity) with the town and its businesses serving as the emotional and literal backdrop for healing, connection, and happily-ever-afters. The overarching theme is found family, community support, and finding joy and love in the everyday.

Main Characters

The series rotates protagonists from a core friend group, with frequent crossovers:
Stella Bloom (Lovelight Farms, Book 1) — Optimistic, determined owner of Lovelight Farms; fakes a relationship with her best friend to save her business.
> Luka Peters — Stella’s best friend; steady, supportive, and secretly in love with her; grumpy/sunshine fake-dating romance.
> Layla (In the Weeds, Book 2) — Resident baker; ready to give up on love; surrounded by happy couples.
> Beckett — Grumpy farmer; provides the slow-burn tension.
> Nova (Mixed Signals, Book 3) — Tattoo artist; focused on her new studio; distracted by Charlie.
> Charlie — Temporary head of Lovelight Farms; charming and persistent.
> Evelyn St. James — Instagram-famous influencer; appears in Book 1 and ties into the town.
> Recurring: The extended friend group (the “found family” of Inglewild), local business owners, and quirky townspeople who add humor and support.

Setting

Modern-day Inglewild — a picturesque, rural small town with a strong seasonal and community feel:

> Scenic countryside: rolling hills, forests, farms, and seasonal beauty (snowy winters, blooming springs, summer festivals).
> Cozy homes, town events, and the relaxed pace of small-town life.
The atmosphere is cozy and evocative — crisp air, holiday lights, small-town gossip, and the warmth of a close-knit community.
