For one wealthy bachelor, the trouble starts when all three collide. . . . After narrowly surviving a bus crash in high school with his best friends, science geek Knox Davis resolved to become so successful that he could have anything and everything he wants. Now he’s über-wealthy, a huge business success, and a notorious ladies’ man. Knox refuses to limit himself to one woman, but when his latest conquest—a blond beauty from the Alaskan bush—challenges his superficial ways, Knox begins to see the world through her eyes, and finds he likes what he sees. A nurturer at heart, Madison Abbott wants to put down roots. She left Alaska to meet Mr. Right—and to track down Logan, the half-brother she’s never met. Instead, she finds Knox. Although the sexy-as-sin bachelor may not seem like marriage material, Madison’s starting to think that Knox is The One. But Knox refuses to settle down, especially once he learns that Madison is his best friend’s little sister. Now it’s up to her to convince Knox that she’s everything he really wants.

Lost, with no direction and no motivation, the last thing he wants is company. But Norah Watson has other plans for the cabin. Not only does she clean Sterling's cabin, she's a counselor at Silver Creek, a teen rehabilitation center at the base of the mountain, and she brings her girls up to the cabin every twelve weeks. She senses that Sterling's lost more than his chance at another gold medal, and she feels a pull to help him. She doesn't have much to give, as she's the full-time caretaker of her mentally ill mother and her three half-brothers, but for Sterling, she invests the time. When Sterling finds out there's a job for an at-risk counselor at Silver Creek, he asks Norah to drive him back and forth.

The more time they spend together, the more convinced Norah is to never tell Sterling about her troubled past, let him see her house on the wrong side of the tracks, or meet her mother. But Sterling is interested in all things Norah, and as his body heals, so does his faith. Will Norah be able to trust Sterling so they can have a chance at true love?

She’s boho. He’s a CEO. A match that shouldn’t work, yet they’re completely gone for each other from the start. Arizona businessman and newly discovered McKay love child Gavin Daniels is awarded sole custody of his teenage daughter, Sierra. Gavin moves them to Wyoming, even if he’s unsure where they fit in the McKay family dynamic. While he believes it’ll be good for his daughter, he worries it might be bad for him, because their new housemate, Rielle, is a whole lot hotter than he remembered. Rielle Wetzler has finally overcome the stigma of having hippie parents and getting knocked up at age sixteen. Although her daughter Rory is off at college, financial difficulties still plague Rielle, forcing her to sell her struggling B&B to Gavin. He graciously allows her to live in it, but now Gavin is in Sundance to claim the house that’s rightfully his. And to further complicate matters, her long-dormant libido is definitely all-in with this newly buff Gavin—who has the take-charge attitude to prove he’s all McKay. Sharing a roof is too much temptation, and before long, Gavin and Rielle are sharing a bed. Meanwhile Sierra’s life in small town Wyoming is as dull as she’d feared, with one exception: a gorgeous, brooding high school senior named Boone West. Their easy friendship keeps Sierra grounded in this new reality where her father is in love, and it seems they’re related to everyone in the county. Can Gavin and Rielle find the right balance to share their hearts, lives and families forever?
