Brody McCallister was only supposed to be a means to an end. My golden ticket to get me closer to what I really needed - a way to make peace with what I’d done when I was 18, dirt poor, and left to fend for myself. I only had six weeks in the middle of a hectic world tour to do it. So the last thing I needed was to fall for a cocky cowboy. A walking contradiction with a charming grin, a dirty mouth, and a gift for healing wild and broken things.

Of course, I said yes when Hannah Bell asked me to help her save the library. I say yes to everything. After an accident destroyed my career as a rodeo cowboy, the only things on my schedule were brawling, drinking, and bedding, so it wasn't like I didn't have the time. Now, I have regrets. Because the nerdy little librarian drives me crazy. She has five cats. Five. Her nose is buried so deep in her romance books that she can't see me standing right in front of her. And those long skirts and baggy sweaters leave far too much to the imagination.

We were 16 the night she was violently assaulted while I helplessly watched. I’ll never forget the sounds of her suffering. Or my inconsolable agony when she left Oklahoma. Years later, she returns to honor our teenage pact. Except the boy she loved is gone, replaced by a ruthless cattle rancher knotted with secrets. She doesn’t know my dark cravings or the trails of sin that lead to her. I don’t deserve her, but one truth remains: She’s mine.

Bronc riding has always been my main focus. The plan was simple: work hard, go pro, and show the world what I was made of. It hasn't been easy, but I did it through dedication and a whole lot of determination. My dreams came true, my life more than fulfilled… Or so I thought. I never knew how much I ached for more until I stopped to help a stranger on the side of a one-lane road one chilly fall afternoon. He couldn't be more different than me, with his messy curls and the chipped black polish.

This entire mess started when my older brother's best friend got hired to be my bodyguard. Colton Keller has been keeping an eye on me ever since he came to live on our ranch. The wall of muscle wrapped in mysterious darkness has spoken less than five words to me in the same number of years. But now that Colton's position is official, he follows me like a reclusive shadow. I try to ditch him at every turn, but he never lets me get too far. Just as I'm about to get more creative with my evasive maneuvers, a threat to my safety pushes him to the extreme.

The night I’m released from prison, she’s in my bed. It’s been eight years since I touched a woman, and the Native American beauty is half-dressed, beaten, bruised, and devastatingly exquisite. We’re toxic together, but we want the same things. Blood. Vengeance. Violent relief in a warm body. Beneath her touch, I’m alive. Against her skin, I’m redeemed. Buried inside her, I forget the past. Until the past takes her from me. Prison made me cold, but losing Raina makes me cruel. Ruthless. Unforgiving. I killed before. For her, I’ll kill again.

Sarah is a preacher's daughter and a people pleaser. She's also on the verge of graduating high school and following her dream of singing in Nashville. The only thing standing in her way is that the entire town of Devil's Head, Missouri thinks she will marry Matt, the son of the town's richest rancher. But Sarah's not sure he's her future husband, especially when his older brother, Isaac, returns home after serving six years in the Army. He has tattoos on his arms and bad habits that are not "father-approved."

I was the best bronc rider on the circuit, but being openly bisexual wasn't an option unless I wanted my talent overshadowed by my orientation. I thought I was the only one keeping my cards close to my chest, until our eyes met across the bonfire, and I knew he shared the same secret I did. Walker DeVille may have bested me in the ring that night, but I'd give him a ride he'd never forget.

Even being her boss couldn't keep him away. After her world is upended, Oakley Rae leaves behind everything she knows to find herself and ends up in the small town of Bell Buckle. With the clothes on her back and a few dollars to her name, she finds herself working at a feed store where the employees are welcoming, the customers are nice, and the boss is, well, bossy.

After losing his girlfriend and his career all in one fell swoop, he finds himself the confused new owner of Dennis, a miniature horse, and with him, a small patch of land back home at Rainbow Ranch. But returning to Oklahoma also means facing Benny Adams, the charming cowboy Sam hurt years ago and whose heart he's never truly forgotten.

I've always lived a simple life. The ranch and my horse are all I've ever needed. My world was quiet and solitude. It suited me just fine. Until I met her… Maddison Mackenzie ended up in Clearwater Creek by chance. She's beautiful, she's chaotic, and she's everything I never knew I wanted. Now I just have to convince her to stay.

Life on the Carson Ranch is never boring. We have secrets to unearth and scores to settle. What I'm about to do is gonna cause us a whole heap of fresh trouble. The Masons are my family's biggest rivals. They play dirty and don't like to lose. I will not let the girl I've loved my whole life marry into their family.

By 1815, Lady Eleanor Brooke's greatest regret is not marrying Arran MacLean when he proposed to her four years ago. Now, with her father in Newgate Prison, and a scandal hanging over her head, she escapes England and travels across the world to try to find the one man she's ever loved.

He's a filthy, fierce cowboy. I'm his best friend's daughter. He says I'm off limits. But now I'm back in our small town, all grown up and aching for the one man I shouldn't want. My dad thinks throwing me into ranch work will scare me off for good. He's wrong. Because the more I'm around Dixon Chase, with his rough hands and dirty mouth, the more I want to stay. He says he can't touch me. That I deserve better. But once he gives in, there's no going back.

I screwed up my first solo potion, and now the customer is covered in hives. If that disaster wasn't bad enough, knowing it might get my family's potions house gobbled up by a competitor is the icing on the cake. What I didn't expect was for my father to ship me off to the Wild West monster haven of Pine Gulch as punishment. He calls it an opportunity to learn. Pfft. Pine Gulch is a temporary setback—I'll get back to the city in a New York minute. Except things don't go as planned when a mysterious sickness befalls the haven's animals.

I've always loved three things more than anything: Raven Peak Ranch, my daughter, and my garage. I've never gone lookin' outside my own hometown for bigger and better things. So when the rodeo comes into town, and my sister drags me along with her, I'm not expecting to be thrown into the orbit of Buckin' Bronco Champion, Heath Macabe. His golden brown eyes draw me in, and I can't help but fall. Too bad, after an incredible night, I find out he's engaged… And he's still naked, in my bed.

Dylan Davenport has always been the responsible one, but he's bitten off more than he can chew. Looking out for his sisters. Running the family ranch. Managing his restaurant as head chef. And raising his six-year-old daughter on his own. Poppy Golightly was eighteen years old when she left Aster Springs to get over her crush on her best friend's brother. Now she's back with a broken heart, an empty bank account, and an eternal optimism that her true love is out there somewhere.

I promised my best friend I'd take care of his hellion of a sister. A sham marriage probably wasn't what he had in mind. Growing up, the three of us were inseparable. Now, the only time she speaks to me is to tell me to get lost. Fair enough. Maybe I do go out of my way to make her mad, but I'd take her hate over her indifference any day. But when it comes to a rodeo competition, we're on the same side for once. With a prize of $100,000, it would make her career—and she could finally give her mom the help she needs. Her skill and my horse are a winning combination. The only problem?

After completing their fort, the residents of Heck's Valley brace for winter.

Heck and Hope don't know what the future holds, but so long as they are together, they face it with confidence. But life on the frontier is never easy. They have to guard their stock, keep the peace, and prepare defenses for spring when the Sioux warriors who killed Seeker's parents will again come raiding. Meanwhile, Heck must decide what to do about his amazing discovery.

She's a city slicker from Los Angeles. I'm a cowboy from Texas. She definitely wants me; she just doesn't know it yet. She walked straight out of my dreams and into this tiny town. I swept her off her feet on the dance floor. She gave me the best kiss I've ever had. It was all going so well … until it wasn't. Like a real-life Cinderella, she ran off without giving me her number. Dumbfounded, I assumed I'd never see her again. Until she walked right into our barn the next morning. Turns out, she's the wedding planner for my brother's upcoming nuptials. And I'm the best man.
