THE RANCHER’S FAMED TRIPLETS
Dawson Family Ranch
by Melissa Senate

The best things in life
Come in threes

Taking in his orphaned baby nephews was an easy decision for rancher Nash Dawson. Letting himself love them was even easier. But being hounded by journalists hungry for the story of the aftermath of his famous brother’s death? That’s been a lot harder. Now, though, one of those journalists just happens to be his former friend, Wendy Watson—who harbored a major crush on him back in the day. For the sake of their past, he’ll give her the opening to write the story of a lifetime. Even when he realizes he’s developing feelings for her. And even if it means helping her take the next step in a career that will lead her to bigger and better things, far away from him…

THEIR CAMPFIRE ROMANCE
The Kowalskis
by New York Times bestselling author Shannon Stacey

An ending worthy of his books…
And one she could only dream of!

Kenzie Pelletier’s entire life centers around the family restaurant she runs with her widowed father. So her banter with writer Danny Kowalski, one of the brothers who’ve teamed up to buy Birch Brook Campground? Just friendly conversation with an author who moonlights at the campground every now and then. Still, Kenzie’s got a way of untangling the complexities of Danny’s tangled plots that compels him to search her out. And as sparks burn between them, Danny soon realizes that Kenzie’s more than a creative partner. But Danny’s entrenched in his own life hours away…a life that can’t accommodate the deeply rooted Kenzie. Or can it?

THEIR SECOND CHANCE DANCE
The Cottages on Ocean Breeze
By USA TODAY bestselling author Tara Taylor Quinn

He came to fix her home
Never knowing she’d fix his heart

Harper Michaels’s new contractor can’t be world-renowned dancer Nathan Goldman! The MIA superstar was Harper’s inspiration for becoming a ballerina, and she harbored a secret crush. Now he’s claiming to be Nathan Connolly, local builder, living a solitary life and pretending not to know her. Fame had brought out the worst in Nathan, and he became selfish. Empty. Unfulfilled. But working at Harper’s cottage and spending more time with her reminds the jaded carpenter that his past held joy, creative fulfillment and the passion of finding the right partner. Still, Harper’s dreams of stardom don’t mesh with his hope for a family, no matter how right she feels in his arms. Will their romantic pas de deux be their last?

A TEXAS-SIZED FAKE OUT
Legacy Canyon
by Michele Dunaway

In a high-stakes game of fake it…
Will they make it?

Wyatt Larrabee thought adopting twin boys and moving back home to Legacy Canyon, Texas, would be tough. Turns out, fending off unwanted attention from women after a TV interview about his adorable new sons is even tougher. And now a random blind date? Between daddy duty, ranch chores and his job, love is not in the cards for Wyatt.

Pediatrician Madi Brennan agrees to another date to appease her matchmaking grandmother before Madi must eventually return to Boston. But when she meets Wyatt, a plan forms: pretend to date to discourage nosy meddlers. Spending time together to keep up appearances, Wyatt and Madi realize their attraction is very real. With two hearts at stake, will love call their bluff with a full house?
