The Second Man
by Emelle Gamble
Her first love is back in town ... and so is a murderer. Could they be one and the same?
Jill Farrell’s college reunion is coming up, but she wants no part of it. The man she once loved, Swedish exchange student Max Kallstrom, is rumored to be attending, but that doesn’t tempt her because Max disappeared from her life the night before the graduation, and has never been heard from since.
While she is curious about why he never contacted her, she is intent on protecting her still tender heart from being further humiliated. And when her ex-husband, Andrew Denton informs her one of their class alumni might be a murderer, what’s not so clear is if Jill should trust anyone. And Max Kallstrom, who is many things, is also a man with a secret.

A career woman in Manhattan. Her small-town husband. The ghost of a hunky screen icon...Welcome to the comic romantic novel, Dating Cary Grant.

Molly Harper
by Emelle Gamble
Molly Harper. Anne Sullivan. Norma Wintz. These three strong, flawed, passionate women will be forced to confront and reveal a secret that will rock each of their lives in the most intimate way.
In Molly Harper, each must come to terms with the errors they’ve made in hiding behind lies when it came to their family and their loved ones. And they will each be freed from the tyranny of fear they all lived with that their secrets would be discovered.
Neither Anne, Norma or Molly emerge unscathed from these revelations. But each will learn that they can make peace with the past if they acknowledge and embrace the authentic facts of their lives. Particularly Molly, whose love for Cruz Morales has been won and lost, and once again hangs in the balance as she chooses what she wants most from her life.
From InD'tale Magazine March 2015:
"5 Stars! ... Molly Harper is no flighty cotton-candy novel. It's intense, tumultuous, and contemplative. It forces the reader to delve into the depths of their heart and examine the actions of their past. The characters and plot lines are vibrant, full, and believable—and not just the main ones... Ms. Gamble's skill in dialogue is of particular note. It's absolutely superb and creates the unique ebbs and flows of the adventurous tide her novel rides upon. It's quite remarkable. It's so good you don't notice it. And that's the point."

Duets
A Novella by Emelle Gamble
This novella introduces the characters you will meet again in Molly Harper, available now!
Duets offers alternating looks into the lives of two women who would seem to have little or nothing in common.
Screen star Molly Harper has it all...beauty, success in her profession, a loving family and an upcoming marriage to actor Ben Delmonico. But as Molly is on the verge of marrying the man who has swept her off her feet, she still wonders if he hasn't swept all her feelings for her first love away, Cruz Morales.
A handsome and cerebral college professor, Molly and Cruz have an on-again, off-again history stretching back to Molly's early teen years. He's not a man who a girl can ever forget about, and his feelings for Molly are equally conflicted.
Anne Sullivan, happily married for twenty-five years, is fighting to hold onto the man she loves, and hold off a confrontation that could shatter her family's image of what they are. It involves the beautiful screen star and her mother, upper crust matron Norma Wintz, who Anne has traveled to California to meet under the most dramatic of circumstances.
Duets confronts the most intimate type of family secret that ties these two women's lives together, just as chance events turn Molly and Anne's worlds upside down.
