Emily Jordan has been in and out of Salem Pearce's life for years. As an archeologist, her work often took her far away–even when he asked her to stay. She called it bad timing. He called it running away. Now she's back and asking for one last chance.

But Salem is a single father with more than himself to think about. If he gives Emily another shot and she takes off again, it'll hurt his daughters, too. He can't take that risk. But deep down, he needs Emily. He always has. Maybe this time she'll stay….

Audrey Stone and her floral shop are thorns in Gray Turner's side! He's in Accord, Colorado, trying to focus on wrapping up his family's business affairs. Instead, thoughts of Audrey and her old-Hollywood beauty keep filling his head. Why? They were never friends in high school. Yet no matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay away. Even more perplexing than the attraction, is the sense Gray has that she knows something about his past—perhaps something he doesn't know. At first he's convinced she's in the way of his plans. But now he suspects she might be the answer to his future!

Back where he belongs 

Bad choices have dominated Cody Jordan's life since leaving home ten years ago. Grieving a broken marriage and the death of his baby, he's back in his hometown of Accord, looking for redemption and a fresh start.  

Old friend Aiyana Pearce and her little girl are a breath of fresh air. Aiyana quickly steals his heart. Being with her reminds him of the man he once was and could be again. Cody's not ready for a relationship, though–not yet. But when a threat to Aiyana's life resurfaces, putting his heart on the line is the least of his worries.

Rodeo Dreams – Sarah M. Anderson

Ride straight to the top of the rodeo circuit – that’s June Spotted Elk’s dream. Having danced with adversity in the male-dominated world of bull riding, she won’t let anyone – not even a sexy, scarred stranger – get in her way.

Back in the arena to resurrect his career, seasoned bull rider Travis Younkin can’t afford a distraction like June. No matter how deeply the stubborn and beautiful rider gets to him. Because he’ll do anything for victory. But so will June.

Her Rodeo Man – Cathy McDavid

Twenty-five years ago, the Beckett family was irrevocably divided by lies and secrets. But now Ryder Beckett has come back until he can find a new job. He’s quick to fall into old ways – taking care of the horses, trying a few of his old rodeo tricks and falling for Tatum Mayweather.

Ryder’s childhood friend has become a beautiful woman. But how can he get involved with the single mother when he’s only at the ranch temporarily? Is the pull of family enough to make him stay? Is this where Ryder truly belongs?

No Ordinary Cowboy – Mary Sullivan

She’d rather be anywhere than here in Ordinary, Montana. Tackling the books for a failing ranch as a favour to a friend is not city girl Amy Graves’s scene. And every time Hank Shelter stonewalls her search for the truth, she wants to be gone yesterday.

Still, something about the Sheltering Arms calls to her. Maybe it’s the open spaces. Or maybe it’s Hank, who is proving too good, too kind to be real. But to put the ranch to rights Amy needs to know what he’s hiding. Even if it destroys the sweet thing developing between them.

An unexpected match...

Life is pretty good for champion bull rider Dustin Lincoln. Every week is a different town, a new woman and a fierce competition. Until he takes a job organising a rodeo and meets his new boss, rancher Maxine Porter. She’s brash, aggressive and wants to replace bull riding with a polo match.

Working together won't be easy - they don't see eye to eye on anything! Yet Dusty can't help admiring Max's determination and commitment to those she loves, including her adorable eight-year-old son. For the first time in a long time someone is depending on Dusty, and he likes it. But that may change when Max finds out why he's really in town...

She's not who she seems...

Gracie Travers has a secret. She's not the down-on-her-luck drifter she appears to be. Once America's Sweetheart, Gracie needs to keep below the paparazzi's radar until she's thirty. Then she'll get her money and get off the street.

But one small mistake brings Deputy Sheriff Austin Trumball into her life. He's attractive and oh, so dangerous. If he learns who she really is, her anonymous days are over. Worse, Austin's hard to resist and their connection is terrifying.

Soon, he makes her want what she can't have—a lover, a family and a home of her own...

A small town. A big surprise.

Handsome, strange men are not on Violet Summer's radar – especially ones sitting in her diner in too–new cowboy gear. There's a reason Mr Phony Cowboy and his teenage daughter are here in Rodeo, Montana…and she'll find out the truth.

Sam just wants to get back to New York. He doesn't need complications, like the gorgeous diner owner who irritates and intrigues him at the same time. Or a simmering attraction that results in one unforgettable night – and an unexpected bun in the oven! Now he's torn between his big city life…and becoming a real cowboy for good.

Journalist Nadine Campbell set out to write a feel–good piece on Rodeo's own rancher–Rembrandt, Zach Brandt – not a sensational expose. She'd come back from New York to heal, not hurt. But a feel–good piece wasn't about to save her job.

Zach didn't want to be interviewed. But he did want Nadine. Always had, ever since high school. Now that she'd returned, he had a second chance. Opening up to her was a risk worth taking. Or so he thought…

Tempted by a family… 

Travis Read never wanted to settle down anywhere–with anyone. He's in Rodeo, Montana, just long enough to fix up a house for his sister and he'll be on his way. Then he meets Rachel McGuire. Beautiful and kind–and with magnetic whiskey–colored eyes–Rachel is everything that Travis could want. Except that Rachel is also very, very pregnant. 

A struggling widowed mom, Rachel wants to give her family the stability she's never had. Travis dashed those hopes by buying her dream house. Okay, she can start over. But she wasn't counting on such a fierce attraction between them. And this cowboy was never meant to settle down…

A family housewarming!

Visitors are rare at widower Michael Moreno's Rodeo, Montana, ranch. When Samantha Read and her two sons turn up, seeking shelter in a snowstorm, his kids are ecstatic. Michael is less enthusiastic. Sammy's sophisticated city vibe seems out of place in his country home. But even he can't deny that the bubbly beauty lights up the whole house. 

Though Sammy doesn't know much about ranching, she recognizes an aching heart when she sees one. Michael and his kids could use some cheer, and she's determined to make the most of their time together. But as the heat between Sammy and Michael threatens to melt the snow, Sammy wonders if Michael's heart could be thawing, as well… 

He's calling in backup...

As the law in Rodeo, Montana, Sheriff Cole Payette can handle just about anything. Taking in his orphaned niece and nephew, though, puts him out of his depth. Cole turns to bar owner and long time crush, Honey Armstrong.

Honey is shocked by Cole's request. He rarely says two words to her and now he needs her help? But bonding with the kids starts to feel a lot like being a family. Something Honey has never let herself dream about – no matter how tempting Cole is…

Community service never looked so good

Monica Accord knows trends, not tractors…fashion, not fertiliser. But she's stuck working on Noah Cameron's farm after one mistake lands her with community service. Monica remembers Noah from high school, but she definitely never knew about the crush he had on her. Now it just feels like she's some bothersome city slicker.

Yet she soon realises there's more growing between her and Noah than just crops — a lot more. As long as the revelation of a family secret doesn't ruin their chance of a lifetime...
