I’ve been in love with Foster for as long as I can remember. Tall, brooding, and fiercely protective—he’s always been the one. But to him, I’ve always just been his kid sister’s best friend. Until everything changes. I’m finally eighteen, and the second our eyes meet, something shifts. Suddenly, he’s looking at me like I’m his. And I know I’ve never wanted anything more. He says I’m too young, that we can’t be together, but fate doesn’t care about age or rules. And neither do I.

When my parents died and left me the wolf sanctuary in Wolf Valley, it was a dream come true for me. Then I started looking at the finances and realized just how screwed I was. The sanctuary is losing money, a lot of money, and I need to come up with some cash fast in order to save it. When some hot shot billionaire shows up in town, I'm not sure what to expect. Our first meeting is magical. I've never felt that way about anyone before. It was just an instant connection.

I’m a dog person. So, how did I wind up fostering fifteen cats? The answer to that is Winnie Mae. She runs the local animal shelter and when someone starts a fire there, I rescue her and the cats. When she told me that they had nowhere else to go, I volunteered to take them. Why would I do that? Well, because I’m in love with Winnie.

She’s perfect. Phoenix moved to my pack’s land and has been causing havoc with my heart ever since. It’s obvious that she’s hiding from someone or something and my wolf is begging me to keep her safe at all costs. I’m broken though. I couldn’t keep myself safe, let alone some fragile human girl. When the danger that’s after her finally comes to my town though, I can’t stop myself from protecting my mate. I would do anything to keep her safe and by my side. I only hope that she’ll feel the same after she sees the real me.

I've known that Tessa was my mate from the moment she showed up in Aspen Ridge. I haven't claimed her though. I can't. Resisting her is getting harder and harder though. Now I'm stuck in a hotel room with her. A hotel room with just one bed. When I give in and claim her, will I get my heart broken or get my happily ever after?

I need a break. I’ve spent this last year working hard to get my business off the ground and to settle into my new apartment and town. All work and no play though has made me a dull girl. Now I’m looking to change that and I know just how to do it. With Ryder Murray.

I have three problems. The first is my grumpy boss, Hendrix, making my job ten times harder. The second is Claire and her mean girl clique in town. The third problem is my biggest. See, I just lied and told everyone in town that Hendrix, and I have been secretly dating. I only did it to get Claire and her friends to stop making jokes about me being perpetually single. Now I’m just hoping that Hendrix never finds out what I did.

I've always been a bit accident-prone, but this is getting ridiculous. After my latest trip to the emergency room, I decide that I need a change. Maybe I’ll have more luck in a small town, so I pack up and move a few hundred miles west. I step out in front of my new home and promptly fall into the arms of my new neighbor, Ryker James. When I look up into his piercing blue eyes, I lose more than just my balance. I lose my heart too.

As President of the Devil’s Pack MC, I have a lot of responsibility on my shoulders. I look after my guys and this town. The only thing that I stay away from is the Midnight Rebel MC and their side of town. That is, until I realize that they have my mate.

For as long as I can remember, Ansel has been my protector. In middle school, he was the tall, strong, boy who kept my bullies at bay. In high school, he was the only one brave enough to stand up to my stepdad. That was when I realized I loved him. I almost told him, too. But then he left. He joined the Marines and vanished from my life, leaving me behind in our small town. I thought I’d never see him again, but now he’s back, and the moment I lay eyes on him, I know that I’m still completely, hopelessly in love with him.

When my rental house gets condemned, I’m not exactly surprised. I mean, the place was always a dump, but it was all that I could afford. Now I have a problem. I need to find a new place to live, which is easier said than done in a small town like Wolf Valley. Then I learn that the new guy in town is looking for a roommate. He may just be the answer to my problem… and the man of my dreams.

When I got the first letter from my secret admirer, I was flattered. With the second, I grew intrigued. By the third, I’m starting to fall in love with him. I wish that I could meet him in person, but I don’t know how to arrange that.

Getting stranded in Clearwater is a disaster for me. I have nowhere to stay, no money, and no friends. Then I see the now hiring sign and I start to get my hopes up. When I go in for my interview and meet Bishop, the grumpy giant who might just be my new boss, I think that maybe my luck is starting to turn.

Baking has always been my passion, and now it’s my career. I thought chasing that dream would be enough. But lately, everything feels… flat. Like something vital is missing. Then I meet him. Rhodes is intense, magnetic, and convinced we’re meant to be. The more time I spend with him, the more I start to believe it, too. But I don’t belong in his world. He's the Alpha of his pack and needs a partner, someone who can help him lead. That’s not me. I’m an introvert through and through. I can’t be what he needs… But I also don’t think that I can walk away from him.

As captain of the Maple Creek Thunder, he’s determined to lead his team to victory after last season’s humiliating scandal. That means curfews, no drama, and absolutely no breaking the rules. And that especially means keeping his hands off Violet Hayes—his best friend’s little sister and the team’s new social media manager.

Moving to Wolf Valley has been quite the adventure so far. Nothing is going according to plan. First, my housing fell through, and I had to scramble to find a new place. Then I got laid off from my job. I’m trying to stay positive, but it’s getting hard. There’s no one for me to turn to for help. Not with my brother halfway around the world and no other living family to rely on. Then I run into Koa, and suddenly things seem to be looking up for me.

I needed a miracle. What I got was a cocky, late-as-hell comedian with too many jokes and a smile that could ruin lives. Sharing a cross-country road trip with Anthony Bronson wasn’t part of my five-year plan, but when a once-in-a-lifetime job interview lands on the opposite coast and my bank account laughs in my face, desperate times call for cocky measures. He’s messy where I’m meticulous. Loud where I’m quiet. And somehow, in between pit stops, comedy clubs, and too many shared hotel beds… he starts to feel like home. This was supposed to be a ride. Just a ride.

It’s just a bet… right? Blake: It all started with a harmless bet. I was bored, and there he was—Luca Wright, the new guy in town and the only other person in the diner. So, I challenged him to a race: who could finish their meal first. I won, he paid for my food, and from there, we’ve bet on pretty much everything—Who could finish the hike first, who could make a better meal, who could fit the most marshmallows in their mouths. It’s always been a fun competition between us, but this latest bet feels different, like the stakes are higher, and I’m not sure I’m ready for what comes next.

Buying my first house was supposed to be exciting. And it is… until I meet my next-door neighbor. Meyer West. He’s grumpy, rude, and always stomping around like he has a personal vendetta against the world. I’m determined to ignore him, just like he’s been ignoring me. That is until I get set up on a blind date—with none other than Mr. Grumpy himself.

I haven’t taken a vacation in years, and I’m excited to finally take a break and relax for a bit. Or I was. When I finally get to Twisted Oak though, I find out that the cabin I rented was partially damaged in a recent fire and is still in the process of being fixed. Now I’m stuck in this small town with nowhere to stay, and my dream vacation is turning into a nightmare.
