Showing results for "you-" in Small Town & Rural

The last person I wanted to fix up my historic dream home with was the handsome older man with money to burn who bought it right out from under me. Thanks to my father, that's exactly what happened. Colton Crawford was making my house a home, and I was back in my childhood room, trying not to think of the towering, gorgeous Adonis with a killer smile… and how much I hated him. Or at least that's what I tried to tell myself. Because the more time we were forced to spend together in the dust and debris, the less our age gap mattered. And the more the sparks flew.

Heading to a teachers' conference hundreds of miles away from my small town should have been a nice break. Until I was propositioned by a stranger to be his wife for the next six months. And for whatever reason, I said yes.

My dating life was a constant cycle, a series of fleeting connections that I found comfort in. I wasn't seeking a bond with any man, but it happened, and my heart ended up in a million tiny pieces. I was desperate for a change, a fresh start. So, I bid farewell to my high-paced fashion design job in the bustling city of New York and stayed with my sister, Adalyn, in the serene and picturesque town of Harbor Falls, a place that always brought me a sense of tranquility. The one thing I didn't expect was to meet a brutally handsome man named Alex Harbor.

Sophia Abella has a good life, even if she is a little stuck. Not quite single, not quite married, she keeps men at a safe distance. But when her Marine husband returns to town and takes the job of chief of police, it might finally be time to get that paper work done once and for all. After all, most of her family already thinks she's divorced.

Callum Lewis thought he was finally getting things right—until one accusation wrecks everything. In an instant, he’s back where he started, haunted by his past and making the one choice that hurts the most: walking away. Now, his son is heartbroken, and Cal is left with nothing but regret… and a secret he can’t share. Shannen Morgan never expected her world to fall apart so fast. One moment, she had love, family, and a future with Cal. The next, it was gone. But something doesn’t add up, and when she uncovers a part of the puzzle, she's more confused than ever about who she can trust.

I broke that rule the moment Tessa and her three kids crashed into my life—stubborn, exhausted, messy bun, and zero idea of what she did to my self-control. They needed a place to stay. I had spare rooms. It was supposed to be temporary. Until I walked in on her naked, mid-hormone injection, in my guest bathroom—and everything changed. Tessa was my surrogate. The one I never expected to meet. The one who still didn’t know she was carrying my baby. Before I knew it, we were sharing a home, late-night laughs, and the kind of heat that refused to stay bottled up.

Will Campbell has been in an interesting relationship for the last three years—with a woman he doesn’t know. Every time he’s worked the kissing booth at a Sweetbriar Ridge festival, he’s been kissed by the same mysterious woman. It’s the same thing every time—a steamy kiss that leaves you wanting more and then a disappearing act. But this year? He vows to stop her and convince her to do more than just kiss and run.

Dean Cullen. The boy next door. My best friend’s big brother. I’d known the arrogant, bossy, domineering jackass my entire life. Falling in love with him would be such a cliché. Not to mention, the town’s golden boy (insert eye roll here) had big plans to get the hell out of Dodge and they didn’t include me, which was fine. I had my own life mapped out, far from his. Falling in love with the boy with stars in his eyes was the last thing I wanted to do.
