Some people come to the city of sin for gambling and partying—I did one better and left as Mrs. Travis Bennett. My annoyingly handsome and charming neighbor has been asking me out for weeks.

And he's doing everything he can to prove me wrong.

What in the actual…? Why is my baby daddy at my workplace? Up there on a dais in front of everyone and—Wait, no, he bought the damn company? So it happened years ago.

It does until their father, Jamison Dawes, suddenly decides he wants to be a present parent. My kids are ecstatic. Can’t say I feel the same.

I'm indoorsy with a capital I, but I need to fake a little outdoorsiness to get a promotion. A five-day hike sounds like my nightmare, but after upending my life and moving from the city back to my small hometown, I need a win.

But after everything with my critical ex-fiancé fell apart, I'm not looking for love. Especially not with someone who's only here on vacation.

I thought the chaos twins were the worst of my problems… but I couldn’t have been more wrong. Sacrificial cults are supposed to be a theme in horror films—but they’re real. They exist right under our noses, and they’re hunting me. Adérfia Aímatos—The Brothers in Blood. They’re coming. They know who I am. They know where I live. They know I’ve killed one of their members. They’ll stop at nothing until I’m bleeding out on their altar. With only the chaos twins to protect me, how long before I’m dead? Will it be the brotherhood who gets to me first?

When I first met Gabe—a month after our best friends started dating each other—I expected awkward small talk and polite smiles. What I don't expect is the way he looks at me...like I'm important. Like he sees something worth knowing behind the walls I've built over the years. No one's ever looked at me like that before. Not my parents, who left me with scars deeper than silence. Not one person—except maybe my best friends, who taught me how to survive when love felt like a myth.

Talk about making a bad first impression. The rookie at Waterford's fire station literally hauled me out of my own home, over his shoulder. Was my kitchen on fire? Yes. Did I have it nearly contained? Also yes. And now he's been tasked with making up for his overzealous rescue attempts by showing up to my bakery to grovel daily. And beg for my donuts. Don't get me wrong, the man is built like a redwood, has the personality of a golden retriever, and eyes you could get lost in for days. But I'm not dating. Not after my last serious boyfriend left town without looking back.

Beth Brockington thought she had everything figured out—until her marriage fell apart just before the holidays. Now she’s struggling twin five-year-olds, a bustling family store, and trying not to think about the empty space where her husband used to be.

Sometimes it feels like every step I take leads to a mistake that is painful or embarrassing, or painful and embarrassing, and it's pretty remarkable that natural selection hasn't taken me out yet. The point is, I have a lot of experience in cleaning up my own messes. Even with all that practice, though, inheriting my dad's failing laser tag business might be a little much.

One would think a nomadic life would be peaceful drifting from place to place, hiking scenic trails across the western U.S. But no matter how far I go, I can’t outrun the event that drove me from my hometown in Mississippi. Now, in Pinebrook, California, tucked just outside Yosemite National Park, I cling to the hope that fresh air and distance might finally quiet the monstrous narrative in my mind. Content to keep to myself, I take a temporary job with a plan to disappear in six months—no attachments. Then a freak accident puts me on his radar. Noah Sullivan is too kind. Too observant.

In my pack, I’m a cautionary tale, the female who made her mate wait too long and drove him into rut. After that terrible night, Trevor was exiled, and I became a lesson to others that Fate always wins. Fight, and you’ll lose. But maybe I don’t want my life to be a lesson to others. Or a tragedy. Some wounds can’t be healed, but what if I tried? Would Trevor try, too? Or would he run again from the female who turned him into a monster?

Am I happy? How would I know? What is the measure of happiness? Deep thoughts to indulge on my birthday, while at a funeral. As I stare down into my grandfather-in-law’s grave, it’s all I can think about. When was the last time I felt truly happy with my life? Those questions linger long after the funeral, eating away at my tranquility like a necrotic wound, until one night I finally ask my husband if we can open our marriage to "live a little." Surprisingly, he says yes. I throw myself headlong into an adventure through the bars and bedrooms of Austin, Texas.

Beatrice "Betty" Hughes has only ever wanted two things: to leave Cole County and to be with Nash Donovan.

When her best friend convinces her to run the new B&B at Boulder Ranch, she agrees. It's the first step to doing something more with her life and one that could bring her closer to the only man she has ever loved. Nash Donovan leads a quiet life. He works, goes to the gym, stays home alone, and works some more.

Audrey Nouel didn’t swap Manhattan’s Michelin stars for Maine’s whoopie pies just to fall for a man who wears thousand-dollar suits like pajamas. She’s got a bakery to run, a cease-and-desist letter threatening her business, and zero chill for the city-boy Grinch who strolls in looking like he wrote the naughty list. Jack Lourd didn’t plan on spending Christmas in a postcard-perfect harbor town—or partnering with a feisty baker who swears she doesn’t need his help. He’s here for his movie-star client, not to trade legal briefs for frosting bags.

And that’s how I end up with blood on my hands for the girl tangled up in my heart.

Walker DeVille may have bested me in the ring that night, but I'd give him a ride he'd never forget.

Lane “Gavin” Knight is the hottest new defenseman for the LA Champions hockey team. He’s my cousin Maverick’s best friend, and by trick of fate, my new roommate.

Hayden “Haddy” Bradford is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. She’s a princess, a brilliant scientist… And she hates me. Until a purple-drink-fueled Halloween hook-up changes both of our lives.
