Six Pack Ranch

The first three stand-alone contemporary western romance novels in the New York Times and USA Today best-selling series Six Pack Ranch from Vivian Arend.

Blake Coleman has always been the steady one. The rancher who keeps his family in line, the man who doesn’t take risks—because he knows exactly how fast trouble can blow up in your face. And nothing screams trouble like the blonde beauty who just moved into his house. Jaxi’s the girl he grew up protecting, the one he swore was off-limits. Except she isn’t a girl anymore. She’s sunshine and sass, legs for days, and a smile that tempts him to break every rule he’s ever made.

Beth Danube has one goal—build a safe new life for her boys and never depend on a man again. After years in a toxic marriage, love isn’t on the table. Neither is trust. But when a night out ends with a smoldering encounter with Daniel Coleman, something long dormant wakes up. Daniel’s used to keeping his desires in check, but Beth makes him want more—more honesty, more connection, more heat. What starts as a friends-with-benefits arrangement soon becomes something deeper. And when her past threatens to destroy the peace she’s found, Daniel’s the only man strong enough to stand beside her.

Matt Coleman thought he’d have it all by now—a wife, a family, a future set in stone. Instead, he’s got a busy ranch, an empty bed, and no interest in trusting anyone with his heart again. Casual? Sure. Complicated? Never. Hope Meridan doesn’t have time for romance. Between running her quilt shop and picking up the pieces after her sister bailed, she’s too busy surviving to even think about falling for someone. Especially not the rugged cowboy who still carries a scar from her sister’s betrayal.

The second box set from the New York Times and USA Today best-selling series Six Pack Ranch from Vivian Arend.

Allison Parker needs a reason to come home—a believable excuse that won’t reveal the real one. Her mother’s hiding a painful truth, and Allison refuses to let her suffer alone. Pretending to be engaged to an old friend seems like the perfect solution, especially when that friend is Gabe Coleman. Gabe’s got his hands full keeping his family ranch afloat and butting heads with his stubborn father. The last thing he needs is more chaos, but when Allison offers to help in exchange for a fake engagement, he can’t say no. Not to her.

Vicki Hansol’s done trying to prove she’s nothing like her mother or sister. No matter what she does, the town still sees her as the bad girl who’ll never measure up. When the whispers get too loud, she decides it’s time for a fresh start—and that means facing an old fear. Joel Coleman’s easy smile hides a quiet determination. He’s tired of being the carefree youngest twin with nothing to his name but charm and good timing. He’s ready to step up, prove himself, and maybe take a few risks along the way.

Travis Coleman’s done with being broken. Losing the two people he trusted most taught him one thing—don’t let anyone close enough to hurt you again. But when his past shows up in a pair of hauntingly familiar eyes, he realizes moving on isn’t as simple as he thought. Ashley Sims never forgot the cowboy who once made her feel alive. Coming home means risking her heart all over again, but Travis is worth the danger—if he’ll let her in. Cassidy Jones walked away to protect them both. Seeing Travis again—with the woman who might finally heal him—reignites every forbidden want he’s buried deep.

Three stand alone contemporary western romance novels in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling series Six Pack Ranch from Vivian Arend.

Steve Coleman used to coast through life—no plans, no pressure, and no idea what he really wanted. Until the night Melody Langley dumped him in front of half the town and made it clear: she was done waiting for him to grow up. Ten months later, Steve’s got a new focus, a work ethic that would make his brothers proud, and one goal in mind—win Melody back. Melody’s not the same woman he lost, either. She’s built a career as a small town vet in places that don’t make it easy for women to prove themselves. She’s not falling for charm or cowboy swagger this time.

Lee Coleman isn’t looking for another heartbreak. Eight months ago, he fell for a woman who chose someone else, and he’s spent every day since trying to forget her. When a blizzard forces him to take shelter in a remote mountain cabin, the last thing he expects is a second chance—with the one who got away. Rachel Malone’s done with love. After catching her ex cheating, she’s promised herself no more hearts, no more hopes—just freedom. But being snowed in with a rugged cowboy who knows how to make her laugh again? That’s a temptation she can’t resist.

Trevor Coleman’s used to keeping things simple—family, work, and the occasional good time. But when a stranger literally falls into his arms, everything changes. Becky Hall stirs every protective instinct he has, and the more he learns about her, the more determined he becomes to keep her safe. Becky’s starting over with nothing but her courage and a new name. Escaping her past wasn’t easy, but finding kindness—and the gentle strength of one rugged cowboy—makes her believe a new life might actually be possible.

Rafe and Laurel were friends in grade school, but went their separate ways after high school. Now that Laurel is back in town, their time has finally come to try again.

Raphael (Angel) Coleman has loved Laurel Sitko for as long as he can remember. The rancher’s son and the preacher’s daughter—two opposites who always fit. Their friendship got him through the hardest parts of growing up, but now that she’s back in Rocky Mountain House, Rafe’s done pretending friendship is enough. After years away, Laurel’s ready to come home and build a new future. Rafe’s presence and smile feel like safety and temptation all at once. But her return brings more than small-town gossip—her ex isn’t ready to let go, and Rafe’s protective instincts are burning hotter than ever.

Jesse Coleman swore he’d never come back. Leaving the ranch—and the guilt that came with it—was the only way he knew how to breathe. But one whiskey-fueled night with a beautiful stranger changes everything. Darilyn Hayes burns bright, laughs louder, and makes him forget the past…then disappears. Four weeks later, Dare discovers her wild night left her with more than memories. She’s pregnant—and her mystery cowboy is nowhere to be found. Independent to the bone, she’s ready to raise her baby on her own.

After years away, Mark Coleman is finally ready to return to Rocky Mountain House. Once, leaving was the only way to protect his family from the fallout of his choices. Now, with time and distance behind him, there’s one thing calling him home stronger than ever—Dana. The woman he’s always loved. The one he lost because he waited too long. Now that she’s ready to build a new future, Mark’s determined to prove that love doesn’t fade with age—it deepens, strengthens, and waits for the right moment. This time, he’s not letting her go.
