Sadie has been in love with Ethan since she was in braces. So when he fails to recognize her at the bachelor auction she's organized, she flips.

She figures after they do the deed, he'll head back to New York and she'll finally be able to let go. But when Ethan has to move back to the small town of Meadowview and work side-by-side with Sadie, she realizes she couldn't be more wrong about the letting go part of her plan. Because Ethan has and always will be...forever the one. less

New York Times bestselling author, Virna DePaul. Formerly known as the “town slut,” Liz Pritchard has a fantastic opportunity to ditch her less-than-stellar reputation and become Elizabeth Picard, primped and perfect socialite, by marrying a man she doesn’t love. To complete the transformation, though, she must return to her hometown to sell her childhood home. But when the only man who'd ever held her heart shows up in Meadowview, he opens the door to doubt…because erasing her past means erasing everything that was once in her heart…including Hunter. Fourteen years earlier, Hunter Thorne had loved Lizzie Pritchard. But when he thought she’d gone behind his back and hurt him, he’d lashed out and broken both their hearts. Now a wildfire fighter, back in Meadowview, he realizes he wants more than forgiveness from Liz. Unlike him, however, Liz wants only to look to the future—a future devoid of love. Like an out-of-control forest fire, passion and love build to raging flames within, and Hunter finds himself faced with allowing Liz to shove their former life back into a dark closet, or daring her reach for love…and claim her as the one he’s always held in his heart. less

Billionaire Theo Courant’s always been a player. Since childhood, the two have irritated the heck out of each other. Only when Theo breaks both wrists and ankles in a snowboarding accident, Chessie’s asked to care for her family friend. But being stuck with egotistical Theo in her Meadowview farmhouse is most definitely not her idea of fun. Theo sees Chessie as part pin-up girl, part hippie-chick—nothing like the models and social climbers he’s used to dating. She’s gorgeous and luscious, but he’s never made a move on his best friend’s younger sister. The two of them are opposite in almost every way imaginable. But wow—is she ever hot! But when Theo and Chessie end up stuck together for weeks, they come to know each other in ways neither thought possible. Seeing a different side of Theo—he’s not exactly the frivolous playboy he seems—Chessie finds herself unable to resist the temptation to try a “friends with benefits” situation. But their differences continue to come between them…and if Theo doesn’t learn love is something that cannot be bought, the chance of a lifetime could pass them both by. less
