Rescuing Carolyn By Leslie North

No amount of SEAL training could prepare me for the sight of Carolyn Evert, the only woman I’ve ever loved, being held hostage in her jewelry store. My heart stopped.

Thankfully, she’s alright.

Not that I should give a damn. After all, she dumped me ages ago because she couldn’t handle the heat of being engaged to a Navy SEAL.

Carolyn is the reason I vanished into the shadowy world of Black Ops. Dodging bullets left no time for heartbreak.

And she’s done just fine without me. She’s running a successful store and raising a son…my son. A child I never even knew existed!

I’ve never felt so torn.

I want to be there for my little boy. Which means being part of Carolyn’s life, too. But I can’t risk falling for her again. My heart’s taken enough hits.

Then, when it becomes clear the hostage situation wasn’t a one-off, my protective instincts kick into overdrive. No one threatens my family and gets away with it.

With everything going sideways fast, I realize I never stopped loving Carolyn. I just hope it’s not too late for a second chance…

My Review

Breaking the Bad Boy’s Rules by Reese Ryan

This is a delightful contemporary romance set in the Dynasties: Willowvale series. Vaughn Reed, a wealthy playboy with a troubled past, inherits a ranch and is determined to restore it to its former glory. Allie Price, the only girl in her family’s construction business, has had a crush on Vaughn for years. When they are brought together to work on the ranch, sparks fly, and they must navigate their mutual attraction while facing obstacles in their personal lives.

While part of a series, this book can be read as a standalone and is recommended for fans of steamy contemporary romance.

Their White-Hot Christmas

This Book follows the story of Kira Lee, a life coach seeking refuge at a deserted dude ranch in Willowvale, and Paxton Hart, a real estate mogul who has inherited the ranch.
