When does hate turn to love? Before or after he ruins my life?

Warren Burke

It’s not that I hate Dane Walker. It’s more like a deep annoyance.
Kinda like when your sock slips in your boot and you can’t fix it until you get home.
You put up with it until you’re in private.
That’s what it’s like with Dane.

He keeps beating me. Just once I want to rub...

Jesse’s story. Full blurb to follow.

I might be a successful social media influencer, but do I have the skills to draw Colt Beckworth away from Snow Creek Ranch?

Snow Creek Ranch, Colorado, is so far removed from my preferred city life that I wonder if I made a mistake coming here. No suits, crappy internet, and everyone knows the new guy in town immediately.

The scenery is nice,...

A hockey player and a beaver walk into a bar…

I’m not a real beaver. I just play one for the Bloomburg Aspens.
You’d be surprised how many times I need to clarify that.
It’s not a traditional job, but between my yoga studio and playing the beaver, it pays the bills.
The beaver mascot gig also comes with one rule: Don’t reveal my identity to anyone.

Riley Benton

Cowboys break hearts. It’s a known fact.

But my career as a romance planner has me moving back to my hometown of Kissing Ridge---a town so full of cowboys you can’t enter a room without bumping into a Stetson. And I don’t date cowboys. Not that it matters. I build romance for others… not myself.

There’s no way I’m falling for a steer...

Griff
Jamieson Carr is my best friend, the one bright light in my mostly dark life.
He’s sunshine, easy smiles, and a world-class bull rider.
Me? I’m just a surly bull fighter with a sixth sense around animals.
He thinks I’m the reason he’s so good, but that’s not true at all. Jamieson is a shining star who doesn’t need me.
I should be glad I’m the...

I’ve got 99 problems, but a fake marriage shouldn’t be one of them.

Hunter Burke

Everyone knows my grandfather was a less than savoury human, but I didn’t think he’d stick it to me in new ways after he died.

I need a husband to claim my inheritance and the sexy new lawyer in town volunteers to step in.

A fake marriage is the easiest solution to my...

Diamond

‘Famous for having his heart broken by emotionally unavailable men’ should be engraved on my headstone.
I wish I could say I learn from each one, but the reality is… I don’t. If you give me a tall, dark, and handsome cowboy with sad eyes and a kind heart, I will never say no. It’s always been yes, and I deal with the emotional fallout...

Listen, I'm a city boy through and through.

Dirty farms and animals aren't really my jam, you know? Plus, have you seen those hideous boots farmers wear around?

Hard pass for me.

But a sexy, rancher coming to my rescue? With a soft touch and kind eyes I'd like to get lost in, I might be convinced it's okay to get a little dirty.

This is a prequel...

Colby
I never meant to fall in love with my stepbrother, but Dante cared for me in ways no one ever had before.

Then, he vanished without a trace.

For five years I’ve wondered how he could walk away so easily, leaving our hopes and dreams behind. I never thought I’d see Dante again, then my world is turned upside down when he reappears.

I want to...

Blaze
Whoever says money can solve all your problems is a damn liar. It only creates unnecessary headaches and does nothing to erase bitter memories.

Deep down, I’m still the same guy I’ve always been. No matter how many zeros are in my bank account. No matter how far I run, or how much richer I become. Where I came from will never change.

I’m...

Alec
As an ex-cowboy who travelled the rodeo circuit, I was good at two things: roping and, after a bit of heartbreak, denying that I was looking for a man to warm my bed permanently.

I left that scene and settled in working at the Broken Horn Ranch. I was still good at denying the loneliness that kept creeping in, but the animals on the ranch and...

Can tattoos induce a sexual awakening?

Heath

I met this guy, Marko. He has the best tattoos.

We hang out all the time and he even loves the farm animals as much as I do. He’s Croatian and he kisses me on the cheek sometimes, too. That’s such a kind gesture and I really like it when he does that.

He speaks another language and even likes to paint on...

Leaf
Grief is a complex thing to experience. Since losing my husband, I’ve let it call the shots. It’s been in control so long that I’ve almost forgotten what it feels like to have someone hold me tight at night or share a secret smile with.

But a beautiful young model shows up at my lodge. He’s eager to learn about the outdoors and experience...

Perry

You know that saying, keep your friends close and your enemies closer? Well, whoever said that never had the misfortune of meeting Roman Auclair.

Sure, he’s sexy and wears a corset like nobody’s business, but he’s arrogant, entitled and so damn judgemental he should sit on the Supreme Court.

I’d rather sleep with a porcupine than bunk with...

Sometimes things don't go as planned. They go better.

Ever wonder what life would be like if, for just a minute, you stepped out of your comfort zone?

I do...all the time.

The thought that the one man I wanted would stumble, literally, into my shop looking for the same thing -with me- never even crossed my mind.

That only happens in books, right?

...

One is suffering through a fog of grief.

The other crushing feelings of inadequacy.
Fate knew they needed each other.

Dominic
For the longest time, I believed we get one shot at true love. A single person that sets our soul on fire. I had that with my wife until she died, then I was lost in a dark sea of grief. In need of companionship, I decided...

One has no time for love.
The other is desperately seeking acceptance.
Only together can their hearts be made whole.

Owen

For the last seven years, I’ve been married to my job because it’s easier than dealing with the angst that comes with relationships. I was only looking to grow my business, now I’m stuck dealing with a baker whose sunshine and...

One thrives off order.
The other lets his heart guide him.
Together they are perfectly balanced.

Jacob
All elements of my life are controlled and measured. My days filled with check lists and colour-coded columns. With an animal and a youth shelter to run and people counting on me, I have no time for distractions.
Yet I can’t get the man I spent one...

One has endured a life of loneliness.
The other is content in his solitude.
Can the draw of epic love intertwine their lives?

Travis
When my grandfather died, I was swallowed by the system. Depression set in at a young age as I was bounced from foster home to youth shelter. For twelve years since, I’ve battled with my mental health issues, refusing...
