Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After all the girls for a girls’ weekend jump ship, Brooke Sahler is left alone to spend a makeshift spa weekend in the mountains of Washington. As she’s happily wrapping herself in plastic wrap and smearing mud on her face, a freak spring snow storm leaves her stranded in the cozy cabin she rented. But not to fear, she’s got plenty of food and cable television to indulge in until the snow melts. When the owner of the property stops by to check on her, she’s shocked to see her first crush standing on the other side of the door. He’s sinfully sexy, and every sizzle and tingle returns with a vengeance. Funny how Aunt Hildie never mentioned who owns the lodge. . . Kyle North always had a thing for his friends’ little cousin, Brooke. He remembers spending summers in Colorado tromping around with her and his best friends, Jake and Chance Harlen. She had a knack for getting them into plenty of trouble and daring him into the most intimate adventures. They shared a lot of firsts, and he’s never quite forgiven himself for taking one of them. By the look in her eyes, it’s safe to say she remembers that night and is less than pleased to see him—even if he’s holding an armload of wood to keep her warm. When she invites him in, every single emotion he felt when he was a teenager slams into him. She’s gorgeous, smart, and completely uninterested. Too bad she doesn’t believe in second chances. . . All books in the Island County Series can be read as standalones.

It doesn’t help that the man who broke her heart also owns half of the company she runs and has no intention of departing amicably. But when Maya rolls into the small town of Buttercup Lake, she sees how incredibly happy her sister and niece are in the small resort town on the lake, and she wonders if she’s been chasing after the wrong things all these years.

Cash Knox is used to tourists coming into town and trashing his lake house with a dreaded promise to return, but when his next guest shows up, he can barely remember the code to open the front door and trips over his tongue offering to promise Maya a good time, which wasn’t exactly what he meant. As he gets to know Maya, he realizes that maybe she’s not the only one who’s been prioritizing things in life incorrectly, but as they grow closer, Cash knows there’s something that could tear them apart, and he doesn’t know how to tell her the secret he never intended on keeping.
