I've got the Key trilogy, also the Garden trilogy (which sounds a bit lighter than her usual drama), the 3 Sisters Island trilogy (is that the one you mean?), the Born in...trilogy(also called the Concannon Sisters trilogy), and the Circle trilogy, plus loads of stand-alones.

Yes, I meant the 3 Sister Island series. Have you read her Chesapeake Bay series? It's good too. Her garden triology is good-you're right a little lighter, but not much! I love how she weaves the gardening aspect into it though. I have all of her series except the Bridal one as it doesn't have any mystery to it-just straight up romance!

No I don't do romance either!
I've heard the Circle Trilogy is really good (the one about vampires).

Yay. I love that blog too. Just a shame those bargains aren't available on the UK site. But the blog does a great job in posting different offers on the different sites.
