When she meets with the detective on the case, she’s surprised to come face to face with the only man who’d ever held her heart.

Since he’d walked away from the only woman he’d ever loved, he never considered marrying, and now that he has a son, he puts all his energy into making a home for the boy. Until he’s called in to investigate the case of a missing woman, the sister of the girl he let get away. Together, Derek and Maddie work to find her sister and, in the process, they might have a shot at a second chance with love. Note: This book was previously published through Amazon Kindle World.

    Noah Steele hasn't had many lucky days since he lost half his unit--and his leg--in an Afghanistan ambush. He's got his hands full repairing the dilapidated Montana Gold spread, but when he learns human traffickers are operating right at the ranch's border, he can't refuse one last mission for the CIA. A tiny, blonde pixie asking for a job is a distraction he can't afford. But one glimpse at the desperation in her sharp blue eyes, the defiance in every curve of her luscious body, he finds himself not refusing twice in one day. Never a good sign. A brother she's desperate to rescue... Matilda Marlow knows zilch about ranching, but she's spent her last dime to track her wayward brother to the cult compound adjacent to this ranch. No matter what, she has to prove herself to this tall, taciturn cowboy who, for all his intimidating size, sets her heart fluttering. When Noah finds Matilda trying to hide her misery, he can't resist taking her in his arms--where her secrets spill out and change Noah's mission. He hopes the new information will crack the case, save her brother, keep his stubborn little ranch hand safe--and maybe, if he's lucky, make their temporary arrangement permanent.

     Jessica Franchetti realized how miserable she was when her boss handed her a new name tag that read: “I’m not really a waitress.” The way she saw it, she had every reason to move on. After all, she was a newbie witch, a rookie cryptozoologist, and a young woman with a secret wish for a paranormal romance with a real Shifter. You know, the kind of romance she reads about, the kind that would knock her socks off. Standing on the threshold of her twenty-second summer, all she needed was to be pointed in the right direction. Thanks to a nudge from her cousin, Kelly, that direction took her straight to Assjacket, West Virginia. Certainly, she’d find at least one hot Shifter to dig her stilettos into. Right? Unfortunately, Assjacket is also home to some pretty crazy witches and they’re nothing like Kelly and her friends at Witches Union Local 1313. It turns out, they have their own boss and their own rules. They might not be too happy if they find out the newcomer is a young novice witch, especially if they learn she’s a Union witch. Will it be an awesomely magical summer where Jessica’s wish comes true? Or will she find herself on the business end of a wrath-fueled witch’s wand?
