Wild Winds & Whiskey Hearts - The Dawson Creek Series Book One
Callie Dawson swore she'd never come back. But when her father falls ill, she has no choice but to return to the family ranch-the one place she thought she'd left behind forever. What she didn't expect? That Wes Callahan, her best friend's infuriating older brother, is still there. Still stubborn. Still maddeningly handsome. And still the man who shattered her heart years ago. Wes has spent his life keeping his emotions locked up tighter than a barn in a storm. The ranch is his home, his responsibility, and the one thing he refuses to lose. But Callie's return shakes up everything he's spent years trying to forget-including the feelings he buried deep. Forced to work side by side, their clashes spark more than just old resentment. The tension between them is hotter than a Texas summer, but neither is willing to give in. Not until a violent tornado forces them together in the dark, where whispered confessions change everything. When the dust settles, Callie must decide: walk away again or fight for the love she's been running from all along? Copyright © 2025 by Amelia Hayes All rights reserved.

The Inheritance
What's it like to be the successful twin? Ryan wouldn't know. His brother, Teague, is a decorated physical therapist and army veteran, with a loving wife and daughter to boot. Meanwhile, Ryan's life is simpler-he works as a ranch foreman and spends his days with his horse. It's not the prestigious life his parents envisioned, but it suits him just fine. Or at least, it used to. Mae was born to be a rancher's wife-sweet, docile, obedient. Raised to fulfill the submissive role expected of her, she always believed her future would be simple. But at twenty-four, still uncollared and burdened with responsibilities she never imagined, Mae's life has become anything but. With her father growing weaker by the day, she is thrust into a world of pressure, managing the ranch and caring for her mother. And with her father's death looming, Mae faces a new and terrifying reality: the inheritance is the only thing standing between her family and danger, but as a submissive, she's not supposed to be in charge of anything. As Ryan and Mae's lives intersect, they'll have to navigate a world where power and control aren't always as clear as they seem-and where survival may mean breaking every rule they've ever known.Complete
