Is revenge real estate a thing? I just spent millions of dollars on a hotel after my boyfriend dumped me. My friends think I rebound too quickly...so, there's one tiny problem with leasing this resort—the owner. The tall, muscled owner with a tattoo peeking out of his shirt sleeve. Rebounding with a hotel is one thing, but is this guy worth risking my heart? Welcome to the Jane Austen Vacation Club! A behind-the-scenes glimpse at the people who run the Hartfield Regency Resort in Loveland, Colorado. Get to know how it all begins in this sweet romance novella. It’s only one-hundred pages, so you can probably read it in two hours!

My publisher invited me to attend an all-expenses paid writing retreat at the posh new Hartfield Regency Resort in Loveland, Colorado. Carole isn't nice like that—there must be a catch. There is. His name is Ryder Hawk, the outlaw leader of the all-male Western writers who work for the same publishing company. He thinks he’s agreed to attend an all-expenses-paid week at a dude ranch. Yeah, no. Carole has other ideas. She wants to break into the cowboy romance market. If I want to renew my writing contract, I have to do more than put up with Ryder and his gang of cowboy cronies for a week. We have to write together. The problem is, Ryder and I have a history. And it’s more like war than peace.

I've been free-falling ever since my husband handed me divorce papers for Christmas. It’s been ten months since then, and I'm still scrambling to find a new landing spot. My ex didn’t just shatter my heart; he forced me out of the software company I started. So, now I'm untethered and climbing solo. My new rock-climbing instructor seems eager to be my anchor every time I crash in front of him. And I might be willing to give him a chance except for one thing—he’s five years younger than me. And that's an age difference I'm not willing to traverse. So, even though I’m ignoring him, Cliff seems determined to overcome any mountain of obstacles. And me? I'm standing on the edge of a precipice, afraid of what might happen if I cut him any slack.
