After a fire leaves me homeless, I end up staying with my grumpy, sexy Boss.
Gage Carter’s father left him the ranch with one condition: I have to train his wild horses.
After losing my home and belongings to a tragic fire, Gage offered me a place to stay at his ranch and a job.
We clash at every turn. He wants control. I want independence. He pulls me in, then pushes me away. Bickering turns to banter. Gage stands up for my training methods, facing his nemesis, and I uncover an unexpected layer of him.
He’s grumpy, seductive, and the kind of man who makes me daydream about tangled sheets and hot escapades. I got one taste of him. Now it’s impossible to let him go.
Gage receives a call from his mother. She’s selling her half of the ranch to his nemesis. We need to raise the money or lose the ranch, and I will lose him. But I have a plan.

Textile artist Sadie Fox did not sign up for this. When she agreed to come home to Pea Blossom, Indiana, it was to care for her father’s beloved pumpkin patch. The deal was that—just for the summer—she would grow a ginormous pumpkin, win the Indiana State Fair’s pumpkin contest and finally win back her father’s (grudging) respect.
Instead, a horde of wild hogs destroyed the. entire. patch. Which is precisely when the annoyingly sexy, sunshiny next-door neighbor shows up.
Josh Thatcher is a tech millionaire who traded in the office for growing gourds, including experimental squash hybrids. And for the life of her, Sadie can’t understand what he sees in her sweary, tattooed, prickly self—or why he’s offering to help his biggest competitor. But a storm-fueled kiss proves there’s definitely something growing between them.
Maybe it’s just attraction. Maybe it’s more. Whatever it is, it’s already bigger than Sadie’s fast-growing pumpkin…or the secret that Josh has been hiding.

He’s the grumpy cowboy foreman. I’m the city girl who inherited this ranch from my father.
How the hell did we end up almost kissing in the barn?
I didn’t come back to Painted Sky Ranch to fall for the Casanova cowboy who’s been glaring at me since I rolled up in my SUV.
Cash Bennett is all growl, grit, and maddening control. The same boy who made my life hell in school is now a broad-shouldered man, very good with a rope—and very bad at keeping his hands to himself.
I have one year to stay here or lose my father’s inheritance. Which means working side-by-side with the one man who doesn’t want me here.
I have to decide between this steaming hot cowboy or going back to the big city.
We fight. We ride. We kiss.
And somewhere between teaching my daughter to ride and defending me at a rodeo, he goes from impossible to irresistible.
Then I uncover the truth about who he really is—and what he’s been hiding from me all along.
Turns out, I inherited more than a ranch. I inherited the one man with an attitude…. who could take it all… or wreck me for every man after him.

He left for ambition. She stayed for legacy. Now they’re stuck together with one café, one storm, and a heat that never cooled.
Talulah
I came back to Starlight Cay to save my grandmother’s café—not to fall back into bed with the man who shattered my heart. But Raleigh Draycott isn’t just scouting restaurant space. He’s in my kitchen. In my business. And when the storm hits, he’s in my house too. Now the man who left is everywhere, stirring up old memories, new sparks, and the kind of touch-it-and-it-burns chemistry I swore I’d buried.
Raleigh
Talulah Everhart was never supposed to be part of the pitch. I came here to build the next flagship for my culinary brand: clean lines, investor-friendly, legacy-free. But one glimpse of her café—and her—and I knew we’d been wrong. Now I’m risking everything I’ve built for the one thing I never got right. Her.

Emily Ammerman has always felt at home amid the ski runs and slopes of Snowdrift Summit; the Colorado resort her family has operated for decades. Snow is her element, and she doesn’t hesitate when a new client asks her to train him to ski The Plunge, one of Colorado’s most treacherous runs.
But Zach Ryder is no regular client. On screen, he’s famous for starring as a daring CIA officer who always saves the day. In real life, he’s just as handsome and charming as his alter ego, though not everyone is impressed. Some are concerned about what kind of impact these slick showbiz types will have on their town.
As for Emily—she’s got a secret, and it’s one she can’t reveal to anyone, especially not to Zach: she’s his biggest fan. But she’s also a professional. She’ll train him till he’s ready to tackle any slope, but she won’t fall in love with him the way so many others have.
Still, not everything in life can be planned, and sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you just can’t help but fall . . .
