THE GRINCH AND MISS GOODY-TWO-SHOES
Mistletoe, falling snow and a six foot Grinch!
Private investigator Nicholas Trent hates the snow and whole sentimental hype of Christmas. All he wanted was to finish his investigation and get the heck out of Winterfall, Nebraska, and back to the sunny beaches of California. But he hadn’t counted on falling for his new assignment. The quiet beauty had a knack for melting his cold heart. But would she forgive him once she found out the secret he harbored?
Kate Harris had never met a sexier man than Nicholas Trent. Even though he’d been sent to dig into her personal life and perhaps take away the niece she’d raised on her own for the past three years, his soul-stirring kisses fueled her dreams. Would she lose more than her heart, or would she receive a Christmas miracle?
CHRISTMAS WITH THE MILLIONAIRE COWBOY
The only thing Penny Shepherd loved more than the Rocking J Ranch she called home was the cowboy that held her heart in his calloused hands. The only thing she hated worse than being thought of as his stepsister was being the overweight girl that couldn’t possibly catch his eye.
Ryan Jacobs felt not one ounce of brotherly love toward Penny Shepherd. And it was getting harder to pretend that he did. What he did feel was something so raw and powerful that it ate away at his gut a little more each day.
With Christmas fast approaching, will these two hearts find a bit of holiday magic?
SEND ME A COWBOY
Shy accountant Katie Lenard wanted one special Valentine’s Day before she grew old with a house full of cats. But girls her size didn’t receive flowers and candy. Just once, she wanted someone to see past her less than perfect body to the lonely heart underneath.
She wanted someone to love her.
Tired of watching her obsess over the romantic holiday, Katie’s best friend decides to give Cupid a helping hand by giving her an assignment with a man who meets all of Katie’s requirements for the perfect Valentine. He’s handsome and rich. But best of all, he’s a sexy-as-sin cowboy who really appreciates a plus-size woman.
John Kinkaid has not had an easy life, and it shows in his less than hospitable manners. Having the responsibility of a younger brother thrust upon him at the tender age of sixteen, he’s done everything in his power to make sure both of their futures are secure. He’s worked tirelessly to turn a failing ranch into an international success, and he’s kept a tight rein on his oil and gas holdings so that they will never again have to struggle. And he’s kept an even tighter rein on his emotions. John doesn’t have time for hearts and flowers. At least not until he meets Katie. The time he spends with the curvy beauty has him rethinking his lonely existence.
A COWBOY OF HER OWN
Marty Samuels had been cursed with plain looks and a curvy body. It didn’t help that she had to work as hard as any man to keep a roof over her head. But Marty was good at protecting what she loved, including the strays she’d taken in and made part of her little family. So why couldn’t she keep her heart safe from the sexy cowboy next door?
Ethan Blackhawk had been blessed with good looks and an abundance of charm. It didn’t hurt that his family was rich as sin, either. He’d always been sure about what he wanted out of life – until one bad dog forced him to take a second look at the woman who could change his mind.
CHRISTMAS WISHES
Curvy Susie Peterson had just one wish for Christmas this year—to have her gorgeous boss notice her. Her wish comes true just as she realizes her next-door neighbor, Mark, might be more than best friend material. Is it possible she’s made the wrong Christmas wish?
A COWBOY UNDER HER CHRISTMAS TREE
Brady Donovan had never had a real home until the day he met Lloyd Langley. But it wasn’t the rambling, warm ranch house that made him feel he’d finally found a place to belong, it was Lloyd’s granddaughter, Taylor.
The younger woman was beautiful and selfless, always taking care of others without a thought for herself. When her grandfather died, she had only Danny – her older, reckless brother who wanted to leave and ride the rodeo circuit.
Brady had to make a choice – stay with the woman who held his happiness in her hands, or keep her wayward brother from harm. Fighting his feelings for her, he leaves.
Taylor tried to hate Brady for taking her to his bed, then taking off without a word, but one look at his darkly handsome face told her hate wasn’t exactly what she was feeling. Having him under her roof, even if was only for the holidays, was sorely going to try her resolve to keep her distance. Especially when he was so darn helpful – taking over her chores, keeping her brother in line, and getting her the most beautiful Christmas tree. Then making the most delicious love to her under it.
But he was still going to leave again – wasn’t he?
VALENTINE’S COWBOY
Curvy, soft-hearted waitress Valentine Brewster is at a crossroads in her life, and she’s ready to take the steps needed for a new life – finding a job as a ranch cook. But, boy did she need some money now, and fast.
She’s had a school girl crush on hard-hearted rancher Gage Forrester since high school. Overhearing he’s lost his cook, she pulls up her big girl panties and – gets herself a temporary job.
She was known for her baking prowess – cakes, pies, candies. But could she convince handsome ranch owner that her talents extended far beyond sweets and three squares a day for his hungry ranch hands?
Gage Forrester had been abandoned again! Once by the woman he’d planned to marry and now by his long-time cook. His hands were about to revolt if he didn’t find a replacement soon. Could the pretty, oh-so-curvy, Valentine Brewster be the answer to his cooking woes? Or would she work her way into more than his kitchen?
