Savannah McAllister left her hometown years ago, chasing a life that ended in betrayal and broken promises. Now, with nothing but her pride and a duffel bag full of regret, she returns to the only place that ever felt like home-the ranch her family once owned, now in the hands of brooding single father Colton Hayes.
She signs on as a ranch hand needing work, but Colton needs more than help. With custody battles looming, land disputes flaring, and a daughter caught in the middle, he doesn't have time for a woman with a past as complicated as hers. And yet... she keeps getting under his skin.
As the dust of old secrets begins to settle, Savvy and Colton are forced to face what's growing between them.
Welcome to Hayes Ranch-where the fences may hold and hearts were made to heal again.

Country Girl at Heart
After being caught, tried and arrested for a crime she didn't do; Lexi Hunter has a choice. It's either Juvie or spend the summer on her dad's ranch working off her probation. Should be an easy pick, right? Only problem is, she hasn't seen or spoken to her dad in ten years. The last time she saw him was through a car window as her mom drove them and all their possessions away to go live a normal, busy, eccentric lifestyle in New York. So basically, being back at a place she used to call home with a man she can't muster the respect for to actually call 'dad', is a prison sentence in itself. Lexi is determined to hate and ridicule everything about her situation. Wanting nothing more than to get the summer over with so she can go back to real life. That all changes when she meets Dawson Priest; the ranch hand who she is forced to work side by side with. His optimistic, simple, almost eloquent outlook on life, the world, and the small town ranch life in general sparks her to see things from his perspective and may even challenge her enough to mend the strained relationship with her dad. This is a story of self discovery, personal growth, a steamy cowboy fling, and learning the importance of forgiveness. This simple, small town life may not seem as much of a jail sentence by the end of the summer. Who knows, maybe Lexi turns out to be a country girl at heart after all.Complete
Roped by Her Ride
Hudson Tate is a first-class bull rider with a chip on his shoulder and a long-standing rule-never trust a city girl. After too many broken promises and one too many high heels in the dirt, he's earned his reputation as the rodeo circuit's most irresistible player-and its most guarded heart. Then comes Callie Monroe, a top-ranked barrel racer with a sleek look and a city-girl reputation that rubs Hudson the wrong way from the start. She's too polished, too confident, and too good at pretending she doesn't care what people think. Hudson can't stand her-until he starts noticing the calluses on her hands, the way she trains her horse before dawn, and how she talks about the land like she grew up breathing it. Turns out, Callie isn't who he thought she was. Raised on a dusty ranch and shoved into city life by family pressure, she's spent years fighting to prove she belongs back in the saddle-and not in some glass tower. As tensions turn to sparks, Hudson is forced to face the one thing he's avoided his entire life: letting someone in. But with both their careers on the line and past wounds refusing to heal, will love be enough to rope in a cowboy who's always ridden solo?Complete

Wrangled Hearts
Maggie Lane didn't plan to start over-especially not in a sleepy mountain town where the biggest excitement is the Friday night rodeo and gossip spreads faster than wildfire. But when her picture-perfect life in the city crumbled and her charming fiancé revealed a much darker side, Maggie packed her bags, changed her number, and ran. Now hiding behind a new last name and living in the guest house of a reclusive single dad, she's trying to rebuild her life in peace. Her new job as nanny to a spunky five-year-old girl seems like the fresh start she desperately needs-until quiet mornings and home-cooked dinners start to feel dangerously like home. And her brooding boss, Dawson Rhodes? He's the last man she should fall for. Stoic. Grumpy. Protective. And far too observant for Maggie's comfort. But Dawson has shadows of his own-raising his daughter alone after a devastating betrayal, he's sworn off relationships. Until Maggie crashes into his life with her stubborn streak, soft heart, and the kind of fire he thought he'd forgotten how to feel. Just as Maggie begins to let her guard down, strange things start happening: an unmarked package left on the porch, a familiar car spotted in town, and late-night calls from a blocked number. It's not just paranoia. Her ex is still out there. Watching. Waiting. Now, Maggie has to decide if she's ready to stop running-and whether this quiet little town and the cowboy who's captured her heart are worth fighting for.Complete
