Love is always in the cards in Starrycard Creek, Colorado.
Isabelle’s not in the market for a relationship—not even close. But she can’t stop thinking about her one-night stand with a stranger on his birthday.
The rules were simple: one night of unbridled passion, no names, and all the cake.
Kieran wasn’t looking for anything more than a fling.
And then he saw Isabelle and found his birthday wish.
What he didn’t expect was for his mystery woman to stroll into his hometown of Starrycard Creek, Colorado, as . . .
His rival.
Now, he’s stuck with her night and day.
As they battle over the future of the town, the stakes become higher when a ruthless developer eyes the quaint mountain abode and jeopardizes everything Kieran and Isabelle hold dear.
The locals say love is always in the cards in Starrycard Creek. When it comes to Isabelle and Kieran, one thing is clear. What started as a one-night stand might be the twist of fate that saves the town and sparks a love that could last a lifetime.
💙Review💙 When Izzy finds herself in a precarious situation professionally, she decides to pursue the career opportunity in Starry Creek. She decides to spend one night with a sexy stranger never expecting to see him again however fate had other ideas as not only will she see him again, but they will also have to work together.
Kieran has spent his life trying to adapt to what other people would consider usual so the news he received may have been unexpected but understandable. Spending his birthday with Izzy was an experience he wasn’t about to forget however a repeat wasn’t part of the plan until she not only shows up in his town but in his life as well.
Even if he doesn’t believe love or a relationship is his destiny, he couldn’t have been more wrong while Izzy appreciates him for the man he is and not his perception of himself. Kieran and Izzy were so much fun together and were exactly what the other needed in their lives.

🏈Review🏈 At first glance you might think there isn’t anything redeeming about Hayes, but you couldn’t be more wrong. He may be a talented football player but the way he plays isn’t always viewed positively and then there is his reputation when it comes to the rest of his life. He needs to show that there is more to him than his reputation and that begins with Everly even if she challenges him at every turn.
Everly has dreams of becoming a romance writer and doesn’t revere football players the way most of her fellow students do. Her interactions with Hayes are less than cordial so when he suggests that they pretend to be a couple she has her reservations but agrees. She thought she knew what to expect of the arrangement, but she is about to find out she couldn’t have been more wrong.
The feisty and fiery side of Everly is a perfect match for protective side of Hayes. The physical connection between them is intense but it is the way that they are there for each other through every challenge that makes their relationship that much stronger and reinforces that they are meant to be.
One year ago, billionaire bachelor, Jack Sloan, left me at the altar and ghosted me. But now he’s back in my small-town acting as if he never met me.
Look, I get it. I’m just a nobody. A small-town girl who lives in the tiniest house in the state of Virginia with her sister and a stray dog that won’t stop stalking me.
I’d probably ghost me, too.
But, and that’s a BIG but. He promised to love me forever. Swore I was the only one for him. Then, on the day of our wedding, he never showed.
Now that I am finally over him, he strolls out of the coffee shop and looks at me as if I am nothing.
My sister and my friends were there for me on my wedding day, helping me dry my tears. But today, I am relying on them to help me… get revenge.
Two simple words hold the truth of our love: wait and hope.
Olivia
Rhys Garrett—recent high school graduate, ex-captain of the basketball team, and my brother’s rival both on and off the court.
Oh, and he’s also the guy I just hit with my truck.
Awesome.
To be fair, he had it coming.
Why else was he dressed in all black, in the middle of the night, if not to hide out amongst the darkness?
Rhys
I wasn’t looking where I was going or what was around me. I didn’t even see the headlights. Just felt the impact. And I thought, as strange as it was, that getting hit by a car may be the best thing that could’ve happened to me.
Until I opened my eyes…
…and she told me her name.
***
Some might call it fate, destiny, kismet…
A collision of souls.
One night.
One chance encounter.
The problem?
One night wasn’t enough.
But the more time we spent together, the more truths came to light.
And soon, we’d discover that what we once thought was meant to be…
When love melts the ice, numbers fade into the background. Welcome to the Carolina Fury, where passion thaws even the most frozen hearts.
Lorelai Hollis dreams of finishing college, getting a decent job, and not much else. Numbers are what she knows best. They are her life and future.
Numbers are predictable.
They are stable.
They are constant.
When a whole houseful of drop-dead-gorgeous men move in across the street, she knows she doesn’t stand a chance with any of them, not when they see the goddess roommates she lives with.
So why try?
Redd Tillman is the newest contracted player with the North Carolina Fury AHL hockey team and is well on his way to the NHL.
He doesn’t do complicated.
He doesn’t do dating.
His focus is only on the ice.
Everything else is just white noise.
That is… until his new neighbor catches his eye, a breathtaking pocket-sized hottie who wants absolutely nothing to do with him, and yet, he must have her.
You’d think reporters could focus on the important things in the world. But they loved to write about me, Jimmy Hall, the best pitcher in the league . . . especially when I got caught screwing up.
Thanks to the incriminating pictures from my last trip to Vegas, the team’s general manager assigned me a branding expert. I was ready to tell him I was fine on my own, but then my expert walked in, and I practically forgot my own name.
Sommer Bennett had curves in all the right places and lips that could make a man stupid. Too bad she couldn’t stand me. Even worse, she was the owner’s granddaughter, making her off-limits.
Or was she?
Sommer
When Granddad said he had a job for me, I couldn’t have been more excited. I pictured myself as the vice president of player relations or next in line to take over the Hawks. Instead, he wanted me to babysit the most arrogant player on the team: Jimmy Hall.
It didn’t matter that the man was drop-dead gorgeous or had the most strikeouts in the league. He was a PR nightmare—and now my nightmare. I’d graduated top of my class and have a master’s in business, yet I still needed to prove myself. Jimmy Hall would not be the reason I didn’t get the title I deserved. I just couldn’t fall for his charm.

Or not.

💛Review💛 Even though River has a difficult past he has found a home and people he considered family in Magnolia Falls. When he meets Ruby, the sparks fly and despite the antagonism between them their interactions are both humorous and hot. Their plans for the future are very different so a casual relationship seems like the best way to extinguish the heat between them but that is proving easier said than done.
When it comes to her family Ruby has always had to be the responsible one so it wasn’t surprising that she physically distanced herself from them but when her father needs her she doesn’t hesitate to drop everything to be there for him. River is a complication she not only wasn’t expect but she also wasn’t prepared for.
When River gave into his feels, he was all in and now he needs to not only convince Ruby but show her that she no longer has to face her future and responsibilities alone. Ruby may have been more cautious but with the support of River I enjoyed seeing her become the woman she was destined to be and to have the future she never knew she wanted.
Send help and wine. My sister is trying to set me up with the grump next door.
Claire A few hours after losing my job, I get a call from a stranger who claims I’ve inherited property from my father. I assume it’s a scam, because my dad is very much alive. Turns out my mother is the liar.
I board a flight to my bio-dad’s hometown, hoping for answers, but the turbulence is so bad I worry we won’t make it. Declan, the hot, tattooed hunk next to me, is obviously terrified too. When the plane freefalls for half a second, he kisses me with the passion of a man who thinks he’s about to die. He seems to regret it immediately afterward—and we both regret it when we discover he’s my new next door neighbor, a complication neither of us wants.
To make matters worse, it turns out my bio-dad’s cabin is only half mine. The rest belongs to a half-sister I didn’t know I had—Nicole, a pink-haired private investigator and possible psychopath.
If I weren’t unemployed and broke, I’d leave, but this crappy half-a-house is my only possession. So I stay in the hopes that I can convince her to sell. Unfortunately, she seems intent on setting me up with Declan, among other manipulations, and her matchmaking tactics are…extreme.
Declan I came to the mountains to hide and be left alone, and now I’m never alone.
Every time I turn a corner, I run into Claire Rainey. She’s tempting as hell, particularly now that I’ve had a taste of her, but I know better than to wrap her up in my trouble—or get wrapped up in hers.
A pain so powerful can only be eased by a love even stronger. Welcome to Seattle, the Emerald City and home to the Single Dads of Seattle. Ten sexy single fathers who play poker every Saturday night, have each other’s backs, love their children without quarter, and hope to one day find love again. This is Aaron’s story….
Single Dad of Seattle, Aaron Steele isn’t a single dad at all. He’s a retired Navy SEAL whose sister just died, leaving him to raise her newborn daughter all by himself. Only he has no clue how to be a dad – let alone a single dad. He’s lost in a sea of diapers and bottles, late nights, and exhausting mornings, all the while dealing with a failure from his last mission he just can’t shake. He needs help. He needs a nanny.
Professional nanny Isobel Jones has a heart of gold. She’s always willing to help out, no matter the cause. She spends her days with children making memories and her nights on the laptop making magic as a graphic designer. After hearing Aaron’s heartbreaking story, she jumps at the chance to help. But, she never expected her new boss to be a blue-eyed Adonis with dog tags, who quickly begins to fuel her fantasies.
While the beautiful nanny is off-limits, she’s also a welcomed distraction. Aaron’s grief is still raw, and he just knows he’s going to mess up this whole dad thing. Isobel’s never shied away from a challenge, and that’s exactly what Aaron is – a big challenge. He’s angry and stubborn, moody and confusing, and yet she knows deep down he’s capable of so much love.
Will Isobel living with the single dad help pull him out of his misery, or will Aaron let the turmoil inside him chase away perhaps the only person that could help him finally find happiness?
Due to her romantic past Adalynn has made the decision that if she wants to have children, she will have to do it alone and has grown weary of waiting. What she didn’t expect was when her best friend Cash found out her plans that he would offer to be her baby’s father without any medical intervention.
Cash has never wanted love or a relationship but there is nothing he wouldn’t do to make Adalynn happy even if that means offering to be her baby’s father. What he didn’t expect that it would change the parameters of their relationship and being friends would no longer be enough.
Adalynn and Cash have always belonged together but neither wanted to take the risk of damaging the most relationship in their lives. I enjoyed seeing them overcome their reservation and realize the relationship and future they were meant to have.
