Her practical farming family is horrified until Jet’s older sister, Harley, gets her a long-term sub position at a one-room schoolhouse in Montana’s Paradise Valley.

Thirty-four-year-old Shane Swan has been an outsider since birth. Raised by his maternal grandmother near Flathead Lake, Montana, until her death when he was four, meant he ended up in foster care.

Yet none of his successes has answered the burning question: why was he the one given away, and his brothers kept? Now Shane has moved to Marietta to unravel the secrets and lies and what it means to be a Sheenan, and nobody is closer to the Sheenans than Brock’s young sister-in-law, Jet.
Normally, Shane would never use a woman, but if Jet can connect him with the keys to his past, he doesn’t seem to have a choice. Until he begins to fall for her. Can two strangers, who were never meant to be, believe in love again?

Media Mogul, Cormac Sheenan, had no desire to become a family man, but when his two-year-old goddaughter, Daisy, is orphaned, he adopts her, moving her from Montana to his home in Southern California, and becomes a devoted single father, juggling parenting duties with running his successful publishing, TV, and radio enterprise.
But two years later, a frightening incident at Daisy’s school shakes Cormac, and he decides to move Daisy–and his business–back to Montana, where life is simpler and he has family nearby.
Now four, precocious Daisy strikes up an unlikely friendship with Marietta’s seasonal Santa Claus, and believes he’s the real thing, even though Cormac points out to her that this jolly old Kris Kringle is renting a room at Bramble House, not living at the North Pole. Daisy’s not worried, but Cormac is, as Rent-a-Santa has promised his innocent daughter she’ll have a mommy for Christmas.
Cormac is livid with Kris. He’s not at all ready to settle down, and he’s definitely not getting back together with his old flame, Whitney Alder, so Santa can stop playing matchmaker, as it’d take a miracle to make him fall in love, never mind marriage material.
But that’s exactly the kind of miracle our angelic Santa Claus has planned.

One night. One dance. One chance to turn a Valentine’s Ball into something unforgettable…
Taylor Harris prefers her romance between the pages of a good book—not splashed across Marietta, Montana’s gossip mill. Quiet, practical, and perfectly content running the town library, she wants nothing to do with Marietta’s playboy, billionaire tech tycoon Troy Sheenan.

Troy might set half the town swooning, but she has zero interest in being another notch on his designer belt.
Troy, on the other hand, is intrigued.
