Welcome Back to Coyote Creek

A Melody for Christmas
Can the Christmas spirit and the right man rekindle the music in her soul?

Music is Clara Everett's life. At least it was until a petulant rock star sabotaged her career. Broken hearted, her gift for music has deserted her. She's retreated to Coyote Creek to run the bed and breakfast she inherited from her great aunt. She has no idea what she's doing, but she's wonderful with people. That must count for something, right? Despite her doubts, she's determined to make her new vocation work. She's never had an all-out Christmas and this year; she's determined to do it up in style for herself, and her holiday guests. Maybe focusing on Christmas will nurture her broken spirit. Opening day, she's mid-crisis when Adonis himself strides into her home and rescues her.
Zane Ryder is on a self-imposed sabbatical from his life as a forensic engineer. He's tired of analyzing critical safety and equipment failures. He's yearning for something positive, like a full out Christmas in a quaint, small-town inn. He's taking time at Sweet Dreams to refuel his soul, enjoy the holiday, and to put the story burning in his mind onto paper. Love isn't on his agenda, until he rescues Clara from her watery disaster. Her strength and fragility touch his heart.
Neither are looking for commitment, but Christmas is the time for love. Will they resist love's siren call or give in to their fears? Will Zane become Clara's Christmas prince and restore the music in her soul?

A Surrender so Sweet
Hunting guide and outdoor enthusiast Garth Gunderson has been in love with Candice since the first time he laid eyes on her six years ago. It seems like nothing he does will ever penetrate her disdain for his career choices. Finding her stranded in the woods during a snowstorm might just be the break he needs.
Candice Flint, eco-warrior extraordinaire, wants nothing more than to have people treat the earth with respect. She's passionate about two things: Protecting the planet and avoiding her unwanted attraction to Garth. When Mother Earth strands them together, she's stuck with an injured Garth for days on end. It's going to test her patience, her ability to cope with disasters, and her heart's resolve.
Can he convince her their views are closer than she thinks before she writes him off entirely? Can she resist his charms while getting him back to safety, or will she have to finally admit that he's the man her heart's been yearning for?

A Place Called Home
Nicole Love's life has been a roller coaster of ups and downs. When her grandmother calls for help, Nicole heads for her hometown. Coyote Creek holds so many memories, and the one man she really wants to avoid. On her sixteenth birthday, Nicole tried to seduce Jason Flint. He turned her down flat. She's older and much wiser now. She's survived the loss of a child and an abusive ex-husband. All she wants is peace and quiet, and it doesn't look like she's going to get it.
Jason Flint is thrilled that Nicky is coming home. He's waited ten years for this day. Turning down her immature plea was the hardest thing he's ever done. But he'd been a man, and she a child. Accepting her offer would have destroyed them both. In the aftermath, she fled into the arms of another man. Now she's back and available. All he must do is convince her he's one of the good guys and that he loved her then and loves her now.
In a world full of past hurts, the future is wide open, but the universe has one curveball left for Nicole and Jason. Will it be the one that pulls them together, or keeps them apart?
