She loved him once—and he broke her heart. Letting herself fall again would just be foolish. When Gabrielle and Tyler are paired together as leaders for a weeklong kids summer camp, they interact for the first time in a decade—and she realizes the immature boy who left so long ago has become a man. A very muscular, all-too-handsome man who still has the ability to make her swoon. But no matter how much chemistry between them, the problem remains—Tyler lives three thousand miles away in New York City, where he runs a nonprofit he’s passionate about. Meanwhile, Gabrielle’s heart is rooted in their small hometown of Walker Beach, California, where she takes care of the only family she’s got left. It seems the only answer is to buckle down, ignore the sparks between them—and simply survive the week. If only they could get their traitorous hearts on board …

Going undercover is Bella’s only hope. Her mission? Convince Ben to sell his inn, and she’ll get the information needed to locate the family she’s never known. Should be simple, right? After all, he’s behind on his mortgage, and a recent earthquake has rocked the town—and his finances. His beachfront property is ripe for the picking. But the big-city executive didn’t count on him being so stubborn. So rooted in family and tradition and everything that small-town America stands for. She also didn’t count on him being so attractive and wounded and … good. And Bella has to wonder if the ends really justify the means. But more than that—can love survive a lie?

Madison Price’s plans have fallen to ashes. Instead of working in an Oregon library, she’s back in Walker Beach, California—a town full of painful memories—running her late aunt’s hardware store and falling for the gorgeous bad boy from high school. Again. Yes, the same jerk who made Madison’s high school days a living nightmare. The one who, somehow, doesn’t remember her. But if the sparks flying between them are any indication, this time he will. For the first time in his life, assistant community developer Evan Walsh is on the straight and narrow. He’s up for a promotion and helping Walker Beach recover from an economic downturn. But doing the right thing for the town might mean putting the woman he loves out of business. Evan’s in trouble—in more ways than one. And though Trouble used to be his middle name, this time there’s no easy escape.

It’s Ashley Baker’s worst nightmare. The man she’s loved for years is getting married—and she’s their wedding planner. She’d tell them to find someone else, but that would mean losing out on her dream of owning an event planning business. It would also mean saying no. And Ashley Baker never says no. Derek Campbell returns from fourteen months in France with a heavy weight on his shoulders. With his dad sick and his younger sisters depending on him, he’ll do anything to save their family vineyard from ruin—even marry a woman he respects but doesn’t love. He just didn’t anticipate one thing: that he’d still be in love with someone else. But love is fickle, and all that matters is saving his family’s legacy. And marrying Claire—not Ashley—is the surest way to do that. If only his heart agreed with his head.

Shannon Baker likes the one man she can’t have. To be fair, the day she meets her sister’s boyfriend on the California beach, she thinks he’s a tourist—a really charming tourist who understands more of her heart than people she’s known her whole life. But Marshall has a secret. He’s actually single. He’s only pretending to date Shannon’s sister—his co-worker—because her ex dumped her hours before a family reunion. In return, she’s promised to recommend Marshall for a promotion back in New York. But things get complicated when he meets Shannon, a woman so unlike anyone he’s ever known. Because she’s sweet and kind and … selfless. And, somehow, she sees something in him. Unfortunately, being with her would ruin all his plans. Or is love enough to make everything work out the way it should?
