Lone Pine, Texas, 1885. When Lena Morrison steps off the dusty stagecoach with nothing but a worn satchel and a heart full of hope, she believes she's arrived to marry Jake Hartwell-the man who promised her a home, a future, and a fresh start. But fate delivers a cruel twist: Jake is dead. In his place stands Nathan Hartwell-Jake's rugged, guarded brother who never expected a stranger to arrive claiming to be his brother's bride. Out of duty, not desire, Nathan offers Lena a name, a roof, and a place on his ranch. What begins as a marriage of necessity slowly grows into something neither of them expected. Through early hardships, simmering glances, and a town quick to judge, Lena and Nathan must learn what it means to build not just a life together, but a love that lasts. But when secrets rise and family loyalties are tested, they'll have to choose: cling to the past, or risk everything for a future forged in trust and tenderness. A heartwarming and sensual historical romance about second chances, unexpected love, and the strength found in the unlikeliest partnerships.

Mae thought she had it all figured out-a fiancé, a future, a plan. Until she walked in on her fiancé in bed with another woman the night before their wedding. Now, three months later, she's looking for a distraction that comes in the form of the town's bad boy and her best friend. Trey's been Mae's best friend since forever. Steady. Loyal. A little rough around the edges but always on her side. He's the guy who shows up with a wrench or whiskey depending on the day. But lately, the way he looks at her feels different. Hotter. Hungrier. And more dangerous than anything she's ready for. One night. That's what Mae agreed to. But for Trey, one night isn't going to be enough.

Ria Koss has never needed anyone to tell her who she is. Which made it so much worse when she heard exactly who Josh thought she was. She walked out with her head high and her heart intact. He's been trying to find the words ever since. Some men don't know what they have until it's gone. Some women don't wait around to find out.

It wasn't supposed to mean anything. Just one night. Sydney Hale goes home with a stranger who's charming, funny, and way too easy to talk to. The chemistry is instant, the sex is unforgettable-and somehow, they end up staying up half the night laughing, talking, and getting to know each other in a way that feels dangerously real. It scares her. So the next morning, she does what she always does when things start to matter-she leaves. No goodbye. No explanation. She moves on. Except he doesn't. Carson-which was not the name he told her-can't stop thinking about the woman who slipped through his fingers. He's drawn to her in a way that has nothing to do with attraction and everything to do with connection. He texts. He calls. He shows up. He wants more. Sydney wants distance. Then she sees a headline. A photo. A name she doesn't recognize-until she does. Carson Beck. The biggest, hottest quarterback in the NFL. A notorious playboy with a reputation for chewing through women and walking away without a second glance. The realization hits hard: she didn't just sleep with a stranger-she slept with him. Now she's caught between panic and disbelief. Because the man she spent the night with doesn't match the one splashed across every sports page. And despite his reputation, Carson is still chasing her like she's the only woman who exists. She knows better than to fall for a quarterback who lives under stadium lights and headlines. But Carson Beck has never wanted anything the way he wants Sydney Hale. And this time, he refuses to fumble her twice.

At twenty-four, Cora really believed she knew what her life was going to be like. But when that perfect life threw her a curveball with two pink lines and a suddenly bare ring finger, she's forced to face a new life she didn't know could belong to her. Now five months pregnant and still alone, she's left trying to prepare for a baby while untangling herself from years that have left her without an identity. She isn't looking for a savior, just wishing to be stable enough for her baby. Eric isn't good with words. He never has been. But in every small act of service, every quiet presence, every protective glance when life reminds Cora how vulnerable she still feels, he says everything he doesn't know how to speak aloud. He doesn't try to save her, but somewhere in that silently protective presence of his, Eric becomes something more dangerous than a savior. He quickly becomes someone she begins to trust.

Romance Trope: enemies to lovers When my high school arch nemesis weasels his way into my friend group, our bitter rivalry starts right where it left off. The back-and-forth trading of insults is a comforting place I'm familiar with, but when the banter starts feeling a little like flirting, I panic-spiral, pumping the brakes before things can escalate. I let my guard down around this man once, and the only souvenir I got was a major case of embarrassment. There's no way I'm making the same mistake twice. But when he starts doing sweet things for me and doubling down on the seemingly innocent touching, I can feel myself wanting to forget all the reasons he became my arch nemesis in the first place. I must fortify my walls because I can absolutely, under no circumstances allow this man the opportunity to best me yet again. [This is BOOK FOUR of the WITH YOU series, a small town romance series set in Minnesota about the lives of the dysfunctional, blended Anderson family - with an interwoven mystery built into the background that spans the entirety of the series.]
