Except…nothing ever goes as planned.

Leaving his job as a New York firefighter, Diego had settled back home in Montana, where he filled his days working his family’s horse farm, as well as volunteering on the local hotshot crew. Life had gone from crazy to simple, and until he set eyes on his brother’s best friend, he hadn’t realized that something was missing, something that he’d started to crave, and that was Rae Foster. With her fiery red hair, equally fiery temper, and gorgeous forest green eyes, she had him wanting more than he’d ever wanted before, if only she’d give him the time of day.

Rae was falling hard for Diego, and he made her crave throwing caution to the wind to see where being with him would take them. It wasn’t easy and with Diego only being five years older than her daughter, and his mother who never had a kind word to say to her, she felt her heart would always want what it could never have—she wasn’t even sure she deserved it.

Kasey De La Fuente has felt that something was missing from his life as he’s watched his brothers and sister find love, but nothing can prepare him for meeting the young and innocent, Felicity Kelly. She makes him crave more for himself and it makes him crazy with how quickly his heart becomes involved…and then she disappears while he sleeps.

The connection Felicity felt with Kasey while in Vegas has stayed with her and not a day has gone by in the last three months that she hasn’t thought about him. However, a trip to New York with her brother, Blake, and a chance meeting with Kasey throws her life into turmoil, and it’s only with Kasey by her side that she gets through it all. She needs him to breathe.

Andie Foster fell for her professor in Love in Flame, her torment continued through Love in Game, and now it’s time we meet the man who has held her heart from the first moment, Professor Sawyer Lawrence.

#1 Rule:

NO fraternizing

Whoever made that rule hasn’t met Andie Foster.

The sound of her voice sends shivers trickling down my spine. It isn’t the words that she speaks but the way her gentle voice wraps around them.

She’s a distraction that I can no longer ignore.

#1 Rule:

NO fraternizing

Whoever made that rule hasn’t met my professor.

The way the muscles in his back flex when he moves, stops my breath.

The heat in his dark brown eyes touches places inside of me that they shouldn’t.

Just one word from him, and I’ll be his.

Blake Kelly had a promising career in the NHL, but that came to a screeching halt the day he walked out in front of a car. Months later he’s living in Great Falls, Montana with his physical therapist. She’s teased his senses from the moment he laid eyes on her, and she’s given him something to look forward to every morning—a reason to get out of bed.

His heart aches with longing for the beautiful woman, but as long as he’s stuck in the wheelchair then he has nothing to offer her, or so he thinks.

***

She’s only ever seen the positive in Blake were he only sees his disability. But then the final blow comes when Blake tells her that he thinks she should start dating—someone else.
