Angela moves to Strawberry after a devastating divorce in order to invest in an old hotel in Strawberry. The historic hotel has so much going for it, but the previous owners let it go.

Harrison is one of the many city employees let go after massive budget cuts. He ends up landing a job as captain of the fire department in the small town where his cousin grew up. He was under the impression the city was a sleepy one, but one stubborn hotel owner with a penchant for home projects tends to keep him on his toes.

Rosemary Roland was stuck between a rock and a hard place. As much as she wanted to live the lavish life that she was accustomed to, she wasn't too sure how much longer she could suffer under the strict rules put in place by her father before his death. The only way to protect her mom and her younger sister was to say yes to a man that she despised every more than all the rules dear old daddy put into place. One business dinner, one misplaced wallet, and one unforgettable night were all it took to begin questioning everything she thought she really wanted. Tate Wilkins knew he was in the wrong. His mama would kill him if she knew the truth about what he did that night, but she was irresistible in her deep red dress and the matching lipstick. He told himself that it would be one night and they would go their separate ways, but one taste and he knew he could never get her out of his head. She was untouchable and really bad for business. She could destroy everything for him and his family, but what if she didn't?

Struggling to sell a single painting and drowning in student debt, Marisol Reyes, a fiercely independent but lonely artist in modern-day Chicago, is just about ready to give up on her dreams. When a mysterious storm crashes through her studio, she's pulled-brushes and all-into a world of primal beauty, where men can transform at will to different animals, cities are carved from stone and bone, and technology is nothing more than a fantasy. In this untamed realm centered around women and powered by instinct, Marisol finds herself at the center of the beastmen tribes. With no phone, no way home, and no clue how to survive in a matriarchal society where women must take multiple male consorts to stay protected, Marisol must quickly adapt-or risk becoming prey. Thrust into the spotlight, she must navigate between aggressive females, obsessive men, and unexpected desire. Armed with nothing but her creativity, courage, and the heart she wears on her sleeve, Marisol begins to uncover her place in this wild world. Maybe she doesn't need to return home after all... maybe she was meant to paint a new life here.

He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.

It didn't take me long to realize my mistake. And then I had to win her back.
