She does series books, but except for the Tending Roses series (possibly my favorite books ever!), they can stand alone. Same people show up in both, but you don't necessarily have to read them in order.
If you like light-hearted romances with a dose of good friends, I recommend the Hill County Texas series.
Texas Cooking
Lone Star Cafe
Over the Moon at the Big Lizard Diner
Her Promise Texas series of 3 books are so funny.
Talk Of the Town
Word Gets Around
Never Say Never
You can read the first chapter of her books here: http://lisawingate.com/Bookshelf.htm
She recently had one or two of her books as a free Kindle download. Might check.
Love love her books I read Tending Roses once a year
