My brother’s best friend rejected me years ago, breaking my heart into a million pieces. Now I’ve moved back home and here he is again … with his chocolate brown eyes and his perfect frame. How naïve I was to believe I could live here and avoid him. But I swear, this time I will not allow his sultry looks or half-naked body to woo me. How long can I stay strong, though? He’s a dazzling mechanic and deep inside I’m still a small town girl. Feelings don’t just go away, though I’m not sure my heart can handle my own being reawakened. After all these years, the spark between us is still there … When we’re in the same room, my body becomes feverish … I can literally feel him on my skin … He’s still angry at me, I can tell, but he has no idea how angry I am at him. Still, underneath the anger there is something else sizzling. It reminds me of that sweet summer when we fell in love … and it scares the hell out of me. I’m terrified of the way I could love him … of the way he could love me … if only I let him. But will I?

I’ve had a crush on him ever since I can think. But to him, I was just his best friend’s kid sister. Today, I’m a grown-up woman. And guess what … Not only do we now live next to each other. He has also just hired me as his assistant. I know I’m not supposed to lust after my boss, and I swear I’m trying not to. But honestly, I don’t know how anyone could resist these blue eyes and chiseled features … It’s not easy staying focused when we spend so much time together at work and as neighbors. The tension between us is palpable … and can only be released in one way. I should have known all about the birds and the bees … But I still didn’t expect a night with the doctor to lead to a gigantic plus sign. I’m afraid to tell him he’s about to be a daddy because he’s rejected me before. He protects me from my ex and says he cares for me … Yet he also tells me we can’t be together and that he can’t have feelings for me. Should I just get over him and plan my life as a single mom? Or … Will he want to give our little family a chance after all?

I moved back to my home town after walking in on my boyfriend with my bestie. But now I need a fake husband and I need him fast so I can inherit my dad’s ranch. Who better than the super fit, blond firefighter who is this small town’s darling? Yet little did I expect a bogus marriage to lead to a real baby … and real feelings. I’ve always despised fake people, but now I’m the fraud. Pretending to be happily married … when it’s all just a lie. If only we hadn’t gone on a honeymoon for show. If only one thing hadn’t let to another. Now I have fallen pregnant … and I’m falling for my husband big time. He says he’s not available emotionally, that he can’t be the man I deserve. I know he’s wrong, and maybe if I tell him the truth about my feelings … Maybe if I confess that we’re expecting a baby … Will he give our little family a chance?

Underneath our friendship there is always the delicious burning of something else… We grew up in this small town, and now work closely together on the ranch. We’re just friends, but the way he’s protective of me and my little son makes me want more. It makes me hunger for the things that I suspect lie beneath our platonic relationship. Seeing him again after all those years, I had almost forgotten how handsome he is. But what did I expect of an NFL player and personal trainer? His black hair and dazzling green eyes remind of a mystical forest… They remind me of the woman in me … of my female desires … my yearning. Sometimes I wonder whether I’m just imagining the hunger in his eyes. Whether my secret fantasies of him may not be getting the best of me. But then I see that strong, shirtless body and the way he looks at me. The tension builds up … we get close … and all I want is … … to get out of this wretched friend zone and into the cowboy’s heart.
