Sierra's Homecoming

Sierra McKettrick felt like a fraud. She might be moving to her family's ancestral ranch with her son, but being a McKettrick by blood wasn't enough to make her fit in. To make matters worse, from the moment she'd met the Triple M's ranch hand, he had gotten under her skin. With his rugged body and tender compassion, Travis Reid was a temptation she didn't need, or want.

But as Sierra began to form a connection to one of her ancestors, Hannah McKettrick – also a woman with a young son and an inconvenient attraction to the wrong man – she started to realise that there were some bonds that even time couldn't break. And there were some charmed places where even the loneliest of people could find home…and love.

Tate

There aren't enough hours in the day for everything divorced dad Tate McKettrick has to do: run the Silver Spur Ranch, do the suit–and–tie thing for his business and care for his adorable twin girls. But then Libby Remington returns to Blue River, Texas, and suddenly time seems to stand still.

Tate and Libby were high school sweethearts, but he was never able to convince Libby that he loved her. He still loves her and wants to try again, only Libby has her hands full taking care of her mother and running the Perk Up Coffee Shop. Caffeine, she needs. Tate McKettrick, not so much. Can they really hope for a second chance?

Garrett

Fast–track up the political ladder, fast cars, fast women – that's city boy Garrett McKettrick. Make that was. A scandal has slowed him down and brought him home to Blue River, Texas, a place where a man can take stock and plan his next move. Which doesn't include staying at the family ranch with his brothers.

But Blue River has other attractions, like his former high school nemesis, Julie Remington. Now a striking woman, Julie comes complete with a four–year–old cowboy, a threelegged beagle and deep ties to the community. Good thing he and Julie have nothing in common except their undeniable attraction. Or is Garrett more of a country boy than he thought?

Austin

World champion rodeo star Austin McKettrick has finally been bested by an angry bull. With his career over, and his love life a mess, the lone maverick has nowhere to go... except back home to Blue River and the Silver Spur Ranch where his brothers have hired a nurse to speed his recovery. Paige Remington's bossy brand of TLC is driving him crazy. Not to mention her beautiful face, sexy figure and silky black hair.

Paige has lost count of the number of times Austin has tried to fire her. She's not going anywhere till he's healed – body and heart. And by then her place in his life just might become permanent...

With his wild heart, Sawyer McKettrick isn't ready to settle down on the Triple M family ranch in Arizona. So he heads to Blue River, Texas, to seek a job as marshal. But in a blinding snowstorm he's injured—and collapses into the arms of a prim and proper lady in calico.

The shirtless, bandaged stranger recuperating in teacher Piper St. James's room behind the schoolhouse says he's a McKettrick, but he looks like an outlaw. As they wait out the storm, the handsome loner has Piper remembering long-ago dreams of marriage and motherhood.

But for how long is Sawyer willing to call Blue River home? As the gray skies clear, Piper's one holiday wish just might bring two lonely hearts together forever.
