She didn't mean to flirt with the same man twice.
Talia owns a bakery, lives above it, and spends her days surviving heat waves, broken AC units, and a construction crew she did not ask for outside her shop.
Colby works construction. He's reserved, funny in a dry way, and very good at pretending he isn't thinking about the bakery owner who offered his crew water on the hottest day of the year.
At night, Talia logs on and talks to her closest online friend-the one who knows her sarcasm, her anxieties, and her tendency to overshare when she's tired. The one who texts back fast. The one who feels... familiar.
There's just one problem.
They're the same person.
A slow-burn romance built on near-misses, late-night messages, and the kind of tension that only exists when two people already know each other-without realizing it yet

Zelda is having a bad day. Actually, she's been having a string of bad days. After a failed marriage and the loss of a parent, moving to Paris was supposed to be a fresh start.

Although, instead of using whips and spurs, Chloe trains with encouragement and trust, showing there's a better way. When a horse needs a safe haven, Chloe's only choice is to accept a bargain from Jack - she teaches him her training methods in exchange for a hidden pasture on his ranch. Working so closely with the flirtatious cowboy challenges Chloe's 'no guys' rule, until she learns her ex is out of prison and hell-bent on picking up where they left off.Lengkap
