Tangled Up in Texas

2020

Their past never faded—and neither did their passion. Between running his family ranch and dealing with far too many needy relatives, Shaw Jameson doesn’t have time for more trouble. But when his first love, former-child-star-turned-businesswoman Sunny Dalton, returns to Lone Star Ridge, Shaw senses things are about to get a whole lot more interesting. Shaw isn’t prepared for the memories that come flooding back now…or the reignited spark between them that turns into a raging inferno. Still, this gorgeous cowboy will do everything he can not to get burned a second time. Because Sunny never promised this visit was permanent and Shaw has no intention of giving up the land he loves. Letting Sunny go again is certain to leave a Texas-sized mark on his soul—and a permanent wall around his heart. Unless he can prove their small town holds the promise of the future they both always imagined.

He’s a delicious combination of strong, silent cowboy and Viking sex god, so how could she resist? Only now Amelia might be pregnant, and their “uncomplicated” relationship just landed in the “complicated as all heck” zone. But when Harley decides to cowboy up, almost anything can—and will—happen…

Hot Summer in Texas

Yet after everything Benji has done for him, he hates to see the old man lose his ranch. Perhaps if Marco and Lana work together, they can solve this problem another way. If only every encounter didn’t leave him wishing this red-hot reunion could last forever.
