She doesn’t believe in miracles, but maybe this holiday, her son’s Christmas wish will change her mind.
Single mom Riley O’Sullivan isn’t one to complain, but with her closest family members now settled in Marietta, Montana, while she still calls Portland home, finding good help isn’t as easy as it used to be. With Christmas approaching, Riley and her young son Dylan are excited to be in Marietta with family for the holidays, but she certainly doesn’t need maddening Mitch Miller coming to her rescue, awakening her senses, or making Dylan ask questions about what dads do.
Mitch Miller left his successful financial career behind him when he moved to Marietta with his two sisters. He’s not looking for love, but Riley captivates him like no other woman ever has. She thinks he’s an overprotective Grinch–with good cause–but it’s clear to everyone that Riley and Dylan could use a little Christmas magic, and he’s willing to help. It’s not as if he’s offering his heart.
Perhaps all it will take to bring them together is the Christmas wish from one special little boy.

She has her eye on the prize. He has his eyes on her.
Former soldier, now rodeo cowboy, Huck Jones doesn’t believe in love or marriage. Still, a promise is a promise, and he’s prepared to honor his fallen team leader’s wish to walk his sister down the aisle in Marietta, Montana. When the groom bolts moments before the ceremony, Huck offers himself as her alternative groom.
Barrel racer Willow McBride hates the cowboy code, and the soldier code is even more annoying. She’s pregnant, not helpless, so when her late brother’s sexy friend offers himself as a sacrificial husband, the answer is a resounding no. She wants love, not duty. Plus, the 85th Copper Mountain Rodeo is looking to be her last as a competitor, and she intends to win.
Huck may no longer be a soldier, but he still believes no man—or woman—should be left behind. He’ll need to woo the beautiful, stubbornly independent cowgirl and change her mind. Failure is never an option.

Five years ago, when Sydney Campbell came through Marietta on her way to the big Grey family Christmas, she ran into newcomer Jackson Flint in Grey’s Saloon. Directly into him.
In Montana, to build some bridges with his older, billionaire half-brothers, Jackson didn’t plan to stay. Sydney was just visiting family from her high-stakes life in D.C. For one night, they lit each other on fire, kissed goodbye, and never thought they’d see each other again.
But Jackson built more than bridges and put down roots. And just about every holiday, he’s watched Sydney turn up in town. The fire that always blazes between them gets hotter every visit, but this time is different. This fall, Sydney decides to stay a while. With the 85th Copper Mountain Rodeo taking Marietta by storm, Jackson knows this is the chance he’s been waiting for.

WANTED: Nanny who will put up with an infuriatingly grumpy Irish billionaire.
If you throw an Irish billionaire out of a plane at 40,000 feet, would he fly? That’s the question I asked myself when Declan Bryne basically told me that it’d be “grand if I could stop talking.”
I can’t help it. I’m a nervous flyer. But that should’ve been my sign to hit EJECT! Because this is doomed to fail.
He’s a total grump. He obviously doesn’t like me. He’s too distractingly gorgeous to be around for any length of time. And he’s made it clear that as soon as he can find another nanny, I’m gone.
But this Minnesota girl is made of tough stuff. I know I can make it through one Irish summer with one sexy Irish curmudgeon.
At least, I thought I could until he became that much harder to resist. The way he is around his niece, Catie, is Hallmark-worthy. The more I work for Declan, the more I realize there’s something growing between us…an attraction that’s impossible to resist. Declan hides a kind heart behind his stormy, gruff demeanor. And that accent. That suave Irish brogue makes my insides melt.
The cardinal rule of being a nanny is to not get involved with the family. To maintain a professional distance. Sleeping with Declan would definitely cross that line.
Some rules are meant to be kept. Others are meant to be shattered.

They’ve been forced to work together, but they can’t agree on anything. When attraction takes over, though, it becomes tougher to ignore how much they have in common.
Lucky Howard has a job to do, and nothing’s going to stop him. As one of Misty Mountain’s top developers, he’s overseeing a complete overhaul of the only dinner theater in town. But doing so means working with the manager of that theater, who happens to be the daughter of one of the town gossips.
