"The cowboy who just took over his parent's ranch. The rockstar who's trying to lay low after a recent scandal. And a little small town match making.One well placed photo and a lot of lies send me running to my sisters in the small town of Rock Springs, Texas to hide from the press for Christmas.
Too bad my sister's plan includes the blind date from hell.
But my brother in law's best friend comes to my rescue.
Ford is every bit the hard muscle cowboy.
Next thing I know he's at my side for everything from the town's secret Santa and Christmas shopping to the Winter Carnival.
It has to be my sister's doing.
But when another record label calls me to talk via a little Christmas Magic the clock starts ticking.
Ford might be fine going with me to Nashville for a weekend but how will we survive a rock star's schedule of tours, recording, and PR?
Then the real reason comes to light as to why I was used staged on those photos and it's a doozy.
Santa do you have one last miracle for me?
Come meet the small town of Rock Springs Texas with a family that has your back, a town that knows your business, and men who love with everything they have."
"I dated her best friend in high school. That makes her an automatic no-no. Don't go there, right?
Wrong.
I can't stop thinking about her.
We're friends. Best friends. She's the one I can talk to. Guy like me, in this life, that's priceless. Especially since I just was discharged from the military with an injury that's changed my life.
She's precious to me, but I can't go there. Right?
The only problem, I can't stop thinking about her.
Contains mature themes."
"He was the only one to survive the blast that killed the unit. She was the only one to survive the accident that changed her life.
He was the sole survivor in the attack on his unit.
He doesn't believe he should have lived and that is holding back his healing.
The survivor's guilt is strong. Fortunately, Mia knows a thing or two about survivor's guilt.
He may not want to listen to what she has to say but she isn't giving up on him.
When a ghost from his past triggers not just him but her too the amount of strength he has determines who he runs after.
Contains mature themes."
"He's a grumpy prisoner of war who won't let anyone around him. She's the ball of sunshine that pushes his boundaries. What happens when she pushes too far?
A year of being tortured as a POW has left him lost in his own head. Until she walks in . . . his best friend's little sister.
She's full of sunshine and smiles, while he can't stand to be touched, but he still feels drawn to her.
He had a crush on her for years and her memory pulled him through his darkest times.
Even now she's the only one who holds the key to his recovery.
She's pushing him outside his comfort zone, but when she pushes him too far, will she lose him forever?
Contains mature themes."
"She’s my best friend’s wife. I made him a promise I never thought I’d have to keep.
Now I’m about to dishonor him in the worst possible way…
River
I thought the hardest thing I’d ever have to do was bury my husband, my best friend, and the father of the child growing inside me.
Little did I know my husband asked his friend Storm to watch over me should anything happen.
Now that the worst has happened, or so I thought, Storm has me moved in with him.
A cabin in the Montana woods seems like a great place to hide for the battle ahead of us. Plus, now the pesky pregnancy hormones have me feeling the kinds of things I shouldn't be for Storm.
I bet that poor man can’t wait to get rid of me…
Storm
My life in the mountains was simple and quiet… until River.
When my best friend Jason made me promise to take care of his pregnant wife, I never imagined I’d have to keep it.
Now, the woman I promised to protect is under my roof and under my skin.
But not everyone seems ready to let Jason rest in peace, and River might be the one to pay the price.
I made a vow to protect her, and I will do whatever it takes to keep that promise, even if it means letting her go and having her take my heart with her…"
"She's given up on love. He's given up on life. But they can't seem to give up on each other.
Of course, my brother went and got himself hurt on this last deployment.
I don't know what I expect at the hospital but I don't expect Noah, the man who saved my brother's life.
I don't expect him to also save me . . . or that I will have to save him.
Contains mature themes."
"He's hiding from his past, she is running from hers. No one would could have guessed their pasts would collide in the Montana Mountains...
Sage
I need a safe place to get away for a few days. My college roommate's family cabin in the middle of nowhere Montana is perfect.
Maybe I should have called to ask permission first, then I would have found out the cabin had been sold... to Jack.
I go to leave planning to spend the night in my car... only my car won't start.
Jack may take pity on me and offer to let me stay a few nights until my car is fixed, but he doesn't know I have no place to go from there.
I won't be safe anywhere.
But my past catches up with me all too quickly in the small Montana town and now I'm out of time...
Jack
I finally got my own cabin in the Whiskey River mountains.
Only it wasn't supposed to come with a curvy temptress in my living room.
I'm unsure of her intentions until I see the bruises on her skin.
I vow whoever put them there will pay, I will protect this woman at costs.
Only I never could have guessed how truly entwined our pasts really are and now I know I'm the last person who she should feel safe with.
Even if she is the only person who can truly pull me from the darkness..."
"He's a scarred up mountain man. She is the curvy girl no one wants, until him. Who knew she’d be the one to save him?
Cole
Go in and save my friend's girl. That was the mission. I never expected her, the girl who wasn’t supposed to be there.
She’s injured… and mine.
So, I take her back to my cabin to care for her.
Only she wasn’t supposed to want to leave…
I have no problem holding her against her will until that first tear falls…
Jana
I never expected to be kidnapped by my best friend's mother and I also never expected to be rescued by a strange sexy mountain man.
Yes, this is currently my life.
When this strong and slightly scary man takes me back to his cabin, I have no idea what to expect.
But it wasn't how gentle he is and how much he takes care of me.
And I sure as hell wasn't expecting to fall in love with him. Too bad I can't stay."
"My mountain man just had a delivery mailed to his door. Me.
Willow:
I was out of options when I signed up for the website. Now I’m a modern day mail-order bride and I’ve been delivered to the doorstep of my mountain man groom.
Bennett is a gentle giant who tells me that he knew I was his from the moment he saw me. I’m on the run from my past, and the mountain man’s bed is the best place to stay hidden.
I just need my secrets to stay hidden too.
Bennett:
She’s a tiny slip of a thing that I can lift one-handed, but my new bride is a spitfire too. From the moment I saw her, I knew I would do anything to protect her.
And nobody messes with what is mine.
Our marriage has been consummated in body, but I intend to have her heart and soul too. And that means that my sweet bride has to tell me everything. Even her darkest secrets.
Now that I have her, I won’t let her go. And anyone who threatens our life together is going to have a giant problem on their hands.
Me."
"Someone is watching me. Luckily my mountain man is watching over me.
Hope:
I didn’t think they would find me here. I moved to the small town of Whiskey River three months ago, hoping I would finally be safe from my past. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I can breathe easier.
Then I meet the mountain man who makes my breath quicken. And my heart race.
He’s my protector – safe in his strong arms.
But my past is coming for me… and he might end up paying the price.
Cash:
The tracks along the treeline were my first clue. I might not have experience with women, but I know my way around the woods. And Hope is not safe living out here alone.
And I’m pretty sure that’s my fault.
Her stalker knows I have money, and that I’ll pay any price to keep the woman I love safe from harm.
But what her stalker doesn’t know is that I plan on making them pay instead."
"This mountain man knows his way around the woods. And how to use his hands.
Jenna:
I’m a big city girl hiding out in the tiny town of Whiskey River. I’m a runaway bride, hiding from my ex and my family.
The shy, virgin mountain man who sells handmade wooden furniture in town doesn’t seem like he would try to control me the way my family did.
He’s strange and beautiful.
Phoenix:
There’s a reason I live in the woods all alone.
People confuse me. Women especially. Trees don’t give mixed signals. Rocks aren’t impossible to read. I work with my hands and keep my life uncomplicated.
Then she complicates things. With her, it’s not hard to let down my guard and view the world through her artist’s lens.
But I’ve been burned before. A beautiful city girl will never be happy here.
I know my way around the woods. Gorgeous women are a whole other story."
"I got one night with him. One incredible night.
This wasn’t a situation where I didn’t know him. I knew his name, Mason. He was deploying the next day and we had mutual friends so… I knew him. But I didn’t know him at all.
Then the letters started. He agreed. I agreed. It was a done deal. Pen pals and in the old school way.
I wasn’t prepared.
The texture of the paper. His words. The ink. He touched what I was holding. The magic. It was a window into his soul.
Until, he’s hurt. Until, he comes back. Until, everything changes. Mason needs to decide if he’ll let me in or push me away because I already knew.
I’d fallen in love with my pen pal, but will he love me back?"
