In the small town of Hazard, finding your soulmate might require magical intervention.

Ivy Wayland has a bet with her sister, who says you can’t have it all—success in business or love, but not both. Since opening her tea shop, Ivy knows where her priorities should be, but she has her heart set on her landlord. All her life, she’s heard the family lore about how their antique cookie press infuses homemade cookies with so much love that the recipient will fall head over heels for the giver. Ivy decides to take the chance.

Jaxon Langford is ready to move on. The only thing stopping him from selling up is concern about how some of his small business owners would fare with a greedier landlord. When one of his enthusiastic tenants brings him a tin of delicious-looking cookies, he’s charmed. He takes the cookies to his baseball team’s practice, only to watch them be devoured without getting so much as a bite.

Suddenly, Ivy has her pick of the town’s eligible bachelors—except Jaxon. How can she prove her sister wrong and win Jaxon’s heart?

Putting down roots means something very different to this Midwest girl and sexy Montana cowboy.

Natalie Wright loves being a development coordinator for new construction. But while the travel was exciting at first, she’s ready to put her suitcase away. All she needs is one more successful project, which seems simple until a certain cowboy walks into her public hearing in Marietta, Montana.

Sam Miles has his hands full overseeing the Flying J ranch and being a single dad. But when he learns there are plans to drop some swanky resort on the land next door, he will do all he can to block the project—a task that would be infinitely easier without Natalie’s megawatt smile.

They’re soon exchanging playful barbs, neither willing to give an inch on which goal should take priority for the town. Then news of an endangered species habitat on the development site threatens to jeopardize the resort’s progress, and Sam and Natalie team up to protect both their livelihoods—and try not to get their hearts broken along the way.

Is she ready to take a risk?

Trista Thorpe may not be a native Texan, but her love for the state and its history abounds thanks to her late husband. When her newly widowed and very famous brother arrives with her beloved nephew, she devotes herself to helping them walk that painful path of healing she knows so well.

Then, at the horse haven her brother and his new love created for other children working through grief, she literally collides with a man who’s unlike anyone she’s ever met.

Half blacksmith, half horse-whisperer, loner Logan Fox feels a spark when he meets the sister of the star who hired him to keep their therapy horses well shod and calm. And when he keeps running into Tris at the historical sites he often visits, it seems less like a coincidence and more like fate.

He’s intrigued, but unwilling to take the next step. She’s his boss’s sister, and her late husband was a town legend. But Logan, who had a rough childhood, finds himself starting to trust and wanting more.

Destiny’s River, Texas: A chance to begin a new life—and new loves.

Victoria “Tori” Parker has been searching since childhood for a place she and her three siblings can call home. She’s found that and more in Destiny’s River, where she put down roots, bought a bed and breakfast, and successfully ran for mayor.

Her siblings have other ideas on planting roots, but she’s determined to make Destiny’s River irresistibly livable for her family and long-term residents alike. She’s eyeing a local hot springs as a public use project—if only good-looking rancher Caden Wright would stop being stubborn and put the good of the community ahead of his property.

Caden admires Tori’s spunk, but he has a life mission, too. He promised his grandfather that he’d never change this land his family treasured. Yet that vow becomes harder to uphold as Tori’s kind heart reveals that not every woman is after his wealth.

There’s too much on the line for either of them to quit their dreams, but love has a way of fixing even the toughest Texas tangle.

Texas is a chance to start over….

Jackson Thorpe looks like he has it all—the star of the hottest modern-day western—he’s wealthy and adored by millions.

His sworn enemy… and perfect bride

Gavriil. My childhood taught me love can’t offer the security my billions can. I poured my soul into the family empire for that reason. If my late father thinks he can take it all away by stipulating I marry or lose my inheritance, he underestimated me…

Juliette. I’ve spent my career as an investigative reporter taking down men corrupted by wealth, so Gavriil Drakos’s convenient proposal shocked me. I told myself I agreed only because he’s returning the beloved home his father stole from mine. Yet, at the altar, I surrender to Gavriil’s dangerously intoxicating kiss…
