He tills the earth with his hands. She’s about to break his dry spell. Wade Abbott isn’t looking for company. Especially not the kind that wears bikinis to mow the lawn. But ever since Sierra Lane moved in across the fence line, the quiet he’s built his life around is shot to hell. She’s bold, flirty, and way too interested in the town’s favorite rumor: that he’s been celibate for years. Sierra just wanted a peaceful escape from city life—but she never expected her broody, sweat-slicked neighbor to become her favorite form of entertainment.

She was out of his league in high school. Now he’s back—and ready to risk it all. Lila’s been divorced for seven years and is more than ready for a second chance at love. But dating in her forties? It’s been a parade of lazy texters, bad kissers, and guys who peak at “bare minimum.” With her son off to college and her friends finding real love, Lila’s starting to wonder if it’s too late for her.

Chanel knows exactly how to push Damon’s buttons—and she loves every second of it. Their passion has already crossed lines most couples wouldn’t dare. Sex clubs. Public play. Forbidden touches. But when Chanel starts to crave something new—something more—she sets her sights on the one man they’ve both secretly watched from across the room.

Damon never expected the quiet woman he hired during her darkest hour to become the center of his world. Chanel was everything he didn’t know he needed—fierce, sensual, and insatiable. Their chemistry exploded fast, and when she asked to bring a third into their bed, he said yes. Because keeping Chanel happy meant keeping her close.

Damon and Chanel have found their rhythm—equal parts passion, trust, and just the right amount of power play. But when a teasing conversation about fantasies turns into something more serious, they both admit they're curious about one thing: a threesome. Enter Lexi—gorgeous, guarded, and sitting alone in a coffee shop when Chanel first notices her. She's not looking for complications, but when the couple makes their bold offer, Lexi can't stop thinking about it.

It’s been decades since I first fell in love with Alden. We met in school — he was the hot soccer player everyone wanted, and I couldn’t believe he picked me… mousy Fern Green. Every time we break it off, we somehow end up back together. Alden says there’s no other woman like me, and he knows me better than anyone else. So why aren’t we together? A question I ask myself every day.

After inheriting his aunt's farmhouse, Damon wasn't sure if he'd stick around the quiet town of Leeds Falls or sell the place and return to his city life. That changed the moment he met Chanel — beautiful, down on her luck, and looking for a fresh start. Hiring her as his housekeeper was supposed to be practical.

Corbin has enough on his plate—running his restaurant, keeping it together for his two daughters. Love isn’t even on the radar. Then Aspen walks back into town. She’s the one who got away. The one who didn’t just break his heart—she shattered it by choosing his best friend. And now, after two decades, she’s standing in front of him with the same soft eyes and wild heart… asking for another chance. But this time, Corbin has more to protect.

I had my daughter Cammy at twenty. She’s everything to me. Her mom shattered me, and I locked my heart up after that. Between raising my little girl and running my landscaping business, love hasn’t just taken a backseat—it’s not even in the car. Then I met Elle Jones. My dad’s ex. His first love. And the woman I can’t stop thinking about. Elle is stunning. Sharp. With soft green eyes and a mouth that begs to be kissed. I know the rules. She’s too old for me. She’s off-limits. And yeah—my dad’s still a little hung up on her. But when I’m near her, none of that matters.

I’m a single dad who got his heart stomped on. Between raising my young son, Gavin, and the long days spent driving for UPS, I barely have time to do laundry. I’m doing my best when a perfect storm enters my life. Pretty-freaking-perfect Nina Tome, one of my customers, decides to take out her bad mood on me, and I’m not having it. Gorgeous Nina doesn’t have a hair out of place, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen her house in some fancy magazine. Meanwhile, I’m a walking tornado who hates to clean. I like my music loud and I prefer to eat takeout over the sink.

After a messy past, Emily is determined to start over quietly in Woodstock, Vermont. No drama. No relationships. And definitely no getting involved with the grumpy, bossy contractor who seems to be everywhere she turns. Too bad he’s infuriatingly attractive…and even worse? He’s the first man who’s made her feel something in years.

She swore she’d never fall again—especially not for her ex’s brother. But fate (and temptation) have other plans. August is tired of being called a hot mess. Sure, she’s clumsy, chaotic, and just dumped her cheating boyfriend on Valentine’s Day, but her small-town chocolate shop is thriving—and she’s determined to keep her heart locked up for good. Until he shows up.

Losing her fiancé, Duncan, a year ago changed August. Not only is her dream of becoming a romance author fading fast, she’s exhausted from trying to keep the home that she and Duncan shared. She never writes anymore and hates her waitressing job, but she can’t afford to lose it. Her life has never been such a mess. It’s not what she imagined for herself at thirty-two years old. Not even close.

When Rosemary strolled onto the Christmas tree lot with her boyfriend in tow, she wasn’t expecting a Hallmark-level meet-cute with the hot guy behind the chainsaw. And she definitely wasn’t expecting him to call out her boyfriend for being a total jerk. Who does that? Noah wasn’t trying to step on anyone’s toes—except, maybe, the smug guy who clearly didn’t deserve Rosemary. He’s been thinking about her ever since. And now, a year later, she’s single… and standing in front of him again.

She’s craving heat. He’s sworn off heartbreak. But when sparks fly, neither of them stands a chance.Ivory might look like she’s got it all together—single mom, successful hairstylist, queen of cool under pressure. But after surviving a dead-end marriage with zero passion, she’s done settling. She wants fire. She wants fun. She wants a man who actually sees her.

Rachel thought her love story with Brad was over. Now a stay-at-home mom and artist, she’s fighting to hold together a crumbling marriage no one else sees. Her husband’s secrets run deep—and so does Rachel’s loyalty, even as her heart feels more and more like a stranger in her own life. She never expected her latest art commission to bring Brad back into her orbit … or to awaken a spark she thought had long gone cold. Brad let Rachel go once—and he’s regretted it ever since. Running into her again stirs up every what-if, and every memory of the only woman who ever felt like home.

Eden doesn’t have time for dating—especially not after a decade of raising her daughter solo and running a thriving flower shop. Love? Overrated. Besides, who’s checking for a curvy, no-nonsense single mom with zero tolerance for heartbreak? Apparently…a sexy redhead who saves ducklings and has abs that should be illegal.

They gave up their daughter—and each other. Twenty years later, she’s back… and so are the feelings they thought they buried. Becca has built a life she thought she could live with. A husband. A home. A quiet kind of peace. But she’s never stopped aching for the baby she placed for adoption—or the boy she gave her heart to in high school.
