Three weeks. One unfinished house. And the man who still knows exactly how to undo her.
Felicity Evans traded in hard hats for high heels the day she left Holly, Montana for Seattle. Now a rising star in the financial world, she doesn’t look back—until her father’s injury drags her home to finish his most important construction project. She’ll manage the crew, keep her heart locked up tight, and be gone before the snow melts.
Then Danny Montgomery shows up.
Once the boy who could make her laugh—and make her knees weak—Danny is now a man whose rough hands and easy grin make it impossible to breathe. She needs his help to meet the deadline, but working side by side only stirs up the heat they’ve been avoiding for years.
Danny’s waited a decade for this second chance, and he’s not wasting it. Every glance, every accidental touch, every long winter night is another chance to remind her exactly what she walked away from.
By Valentine’s Day, the house won’t be the only thing finished. Felicity’s convinced her resolve will be gone too…

All I want this Christmas is to start new traditions with my daughter in our new place—in peace. But when Captain Logan Riley shows up at my doorstep with a letter from Melly’s late father, the quiet holiday season instantly turns to chaos.
I’ve never told anyone who her father is—not my family, my friends, nor the father himself. I’ve certainly never told the handsome soldier who claims to be his best friend. The same man I should definitely not be falling for. It doesn’t matter that he’s made a promise to stick around until I read that letter. He’s not staying beyond a few days, and even if he was, this is all too complicated.
Maybe someone should reiterate that to Ed, though. The local moose, notorious for his matchmaking skills, is currently stalking me. I’ve lived in Sunset Ridge long enough to know what happens when this moose singles you out. But that doesn’t matter. Because I’m absolutely not looking for love this Christmas.
Even if love seems determined to find me.

I knew ranch life would be messy… but I didn’t expect it to personally attack me.
One minute I’m a newlywed trying to waddle my very pregnant self across our porch, and the next I’m watching my sexy cowboy husband argue with a tractor like it owes him money.
And somehow, between the broken fences, the weather, and Boone stealing every baby sock we own, Tanner Briggs and I are supposed to be building our happily‑ever-after at Rising Star Ranch.
He’s calm, collected, and unfairly gorgeous. I’m hormonal, sleep‑deprived, and absolutely not immune to the way he touches me in the bedroom.
Then the baby comes early. The barn roof gives up on life while revealing past secrets. And the whole town starts treating us like their favorite reality TV show.
I watch him holding our daughter, and it makes me fall for him all over again.
Then life throws a bigger curveball than either of us is ready for.
The scariest part of loving Tanner isn’t the chaos; it’s realizing how easily I could lose everything I’m fighting for.
