More baffling is the dark, possessive instinct that tells him she belongs to him. For Lily Weston, home is a secluded nook in a back alley - until Seth offers her a place to stay.

You've Tried Everything for Anxiety. Your Body Has Been Waiting for This. You've journaled. You've talked about it. You've tried the breathing exercises and the affirmations. And it keeps coming back — because every strategy you've tried was aimed at your mind. But anxiety doesn't live in your mind. It lives in your body. Somatic exercises work differently. They communicate directly with your nervous system through movement, breath, touch, and sensation — bypassing the anxious mind entirely and reaching the part of you that's been stuck in alarm mode. This isn't another cognitive ...

I disagreed . . . right up until I came face to face with a demon. And the bastard ate my Prada shirt. Seriously, who does that? You'd think he'd be into souls, not silk. But apparently, my spastic magic makes me a walking buffet for supernatural weirdos. Which is exactly how I ended up shackled to River.

Five years ago, Colm Frost asked me to marry him, and I ran. I ran from my painful past too raw and fresh to escape. He was the only one who looked at me like I wasn’t broken and made me believe it. He made me feel it. Now, he’s the hot, angry hockey player on the mend. I’m the physiotherapist who’s supposed to get him back on his feet. I don’t think our night together was what his doctor prescribed, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t dreamt of him every time I close my eyes.

I came to his ranch to escape my life. He's decided I'm never leaving. Burned out and desperate for peace, I rent a cabin on a Montana cattle ranch. I'm not looking for anything but silence and sleep. I'm definitely not looking for the gruff, silver-templed rancher who keeps showing up at my door with firewood I didn't ask for and that intense look in his eyes. Colton Slade hasn't let anyone close in five years. But when a storm kills my power, he carries me to his house like I weigh nothing and tells me I'm staying. Not asks. Tells. He's grumpy. Possessive. Looks at my curves like I'm the ...

His daughter found me first. Then he came to claim me. I rented a cabin in Cold Creek to finish illustrating my book. I didn't expect to befriend an eight-year-old at the general store, or for her father to show up during the blizzard and carry me home. Nash Brody is the fire chief, the single dad, the man everyone in town relies on. He's steady and strong and looks at me like I'm something he didn't know he needed. When the power goes out and I end up drawing by his fireplace with his daughter in my lap, I realize I'm not just weathering a storm. I'm falling into a family. And when ...
