Help! I've inherited my aunt's historic house in small-town Oregon, and I need to fix it up and sell it fast before I move on to my big-city dreams. I'm one of the navy's best investigators, but twenty years of living in base housing means DIY isn't part of my extensive skill set.

Eigentlich trinkt Quinn nie, besonders nicht allein, aber eine hässliche Trennung treibt den Kleinstadtarzt eines Tages doch in die Bar der Rainbow Tavern. Allerdings hat er nicht mit dem jungen sexy Rotschopf hinter dem Tresen gerechnet, der ihm viel zu gute Drinks mixt. Betrunken lässt er sich von Barkeeper Adam nach Hause bringen und in einem Moment der Unachtsamkeit plaudert er eine geheime Vorliebe aus, die er bis jetzt immer unterdrückt hat.

Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

Trevor Daniels is feeling aimless. A recent college grad, he's not sure what to do with his useless degree, and his family all but abandoned him after he revealed the truth about himself. But a friend's suggestion that he take his chances on a reality show aimed at finding the next big boy band strikes a chord with him - until the show's producers convince him to act like he's in a relationship with a guy who's not at all his type. It isn't exactly love at first sight for Jalen Smith either - but lust just might push them in an unexpected direction.

Joining an a cappella group for a new singing competition show could be his last chance at real fame - unless the college boy from the heart of the country messes it up for him.

But when a twist in the show forces them together, even the sweetest songs get steamy as the attraction between them lights up the stage.

Sadly, there’s no What to Expect manual for navigating life after forty. Right when I’ve begun piecing together my life as a widower and single dad to four older kids, my college-age daughter announces she’s pregnant. Oh, baby. And, of course, the other grandfather-to-be is the hot, single bar owner seemingly determined to flirt his way into my locked heart. Magnus is a temptation I don’t need. When a fire leaves Magnus and his dogs without a home, I offer my carriage house as a solution.

In high school, Maverick and I were best friends. Inseparable. We shared everything from video games to camping adventures to a first kiss that shattered everything I knew about myself. Our first love was sweet and true and not nearly enough to keep Maverick on the ranch he hated. Twenty years later, Maverick’s back in town to sell the ranch he’s inherited. As the sheriff, I know losing the ranch will devastate the county. The area needs Maverick to stay. As a single dad with far more than my own heart on the line, I need him gone.

The short-order cook at Honey's Hotcake Hut.

I thought I'd lost myself . . . Until Sam found me. I'm back in Safe Harbor, where I haven't belonged in over twenty years. I'm unsure how I ended up here, yet I'm certain Sam is the key to finally healing. But it's complicated. Sam's had a crush on me since we were younger. To me, however, he was always the annoying kid tagging along. Now he's all grown-up and delightfully bossy—and sexy—as he encourages me to reclaim my health.

Starting over after retiring as an Army Ranger shouldn’t be this hard...For twenty years, I traveled the world as a special operations warrior. Newly retired at forty-two, I’m back in my hometown of Mount Hope, pursuing a second career as a small-town firefighter. My meddling sisters and best friends all have opinions about my life, but the only person who seems to truly understand me is Caleb, the younger firefighter tasked with my training.

My life is one big caution sign. Ever since my best friend’s all-grown-up son joined our shared home, I’ve been navigating a growing attraction to the injured motocross rider. Declan unleashes every protective and caretaking impulse I have, and I genuinely love spending time with the guy. But Declan’s too young, too straight, and too temporary to risk a twenty-year friendship over. At least until he kisses me, and I tumble past forbidden attraction into a doomed secret fling. What starts as exploration for Declan quickly transforms into an undeniable bond.

I'm a forty-year-old homeowner and former detective. My friends think a roommate is the solution to my recent funk, but I know that's the last thing I need. And even if they're right, sharing my home with Cal is a bad idea.

Yet those fathoms-deep blue eyes have me making an offer I'll surely regret.
