This Special Edition box set includes: Stone Creek Sheriff by Stella Bagwell On a ranch to search out his past, can he build a new future? Flint Hollister came to Idaho to solve a family mystery—but what he finds is so much more. Pippa Shanahan, a beautiful, spirited stranger, has taken over his late aunt’s ranch, and it’s plain to see she’s in over her head. Yet even though she needs help, that doesn’t mean she’ll accept it from Flint. Life has taught Pippa to handle things on her own…and not to trust handsome strangers who won’t be sticking around for long. But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to resist him. Can two lives built this far apart find a way to come together? The Romance Remedy by Allison Leigh A single-dad doctor could be her prescription for happiness. Survive one year living in Cape Cardinale, Oregon—the ridiculous stipulation in her father’s will—then grab her inheritance and run back to San Francisco! That’s recently divorced teacher Alexa Cardinale’s plan. Getting involved with a student’s father is not part of the curriculum. Especially mind-numbingly handsome doctor West D’Angelo—who makes her knees go weak. A widower and single dad, West is building a stable life for his son, Jason, and that means working more hours than he’d like. He certainly doesn’t have time for romance. But Jason has his own ideas about what his dad needs. And when he plays matchmaker, he’s playing to heal wounded hearts…and maybe win a family. Bluebonnet Season by Teri WIlson “So you and the dog are a package deal, then?” “Yes. But just so you know, Mr. McAllister—I’m not for sale, either.” School librarian and Comfort Paws cofounder Belle Darling will do anything to keep her reading assistance program going at Bluebonnet Elementary—except sell her beloved dog, Peaches, to billionaire Cash McAllister! And yes, he has the funding to keep the program going—but he wants this particular dog because she is the first creature his orphaned niece turned daughter has shown real interest in since her parents died. So Belle insists Cash take classes with Belle to train a new dog for his little girl. And when their working together reveals Belle and Cash’s explosive chemistry—and a connection neither expected—will their tenuous alliance become a more permanent partnership, canines and all? A Summer to Start Over by Sera Taíno She needed help… He needed to begin again. Single mom Indya Linares has always been Ms. Independent—especially when her family’s hurricane-ravaged resort is at stake. But when Indya’s boat breaks down at sea, she’s forced to accept help from a handsome stranger who immediately makes her heart beat faster. Who would have imagined that he’s also her stubborn mother’s pick for a new facilities manager extraordinaire? After Santiago Pereira left Venezuela to begin again in Soledad Bay, he’s got something to prove to his family…and a mission to bring his daughter back to him. But when Santi just can’t stop thinking about his new boss, will hospitality take on a new meaning for them both?
