Summary

At the end of Galloway Road, Robin McKee's mail truck is in a ditch, her daughter's daycare closes at five, and the man knocking on the window is too warm for the coldest week in fifteen years.

Robin has been carrying mail through Paradise Valley since the divorce, since the move home, since the kid. She is good at being fine. She is less good at accepting help, especially from Wes Galloway, a retired saddle-bronc rider who has been back at his uncle's boarding stable for nine days and already looks too much like shelter.

Wes pulls her truck out of the snow, hands her coffee, and keeps appearing at the end of her route with exactly what she refuses to ask for. Firewood. A plowed drive. Patience. By Christmas Eve, Robin's furnace is dead, the cold snap is finally breaking, and the man she has spent twelve days resisting is the only warm place she wants to be.

Cold Snap is Paradise Valley book four: grumpy heroine, sunshine cowboy, single-mom stakes, slow-burn winter heat, and four explicit scenes for readers of Kristen Ashley, Maisey Yates, Lauren Landish, and Lyla Sage.
Available since: 05/13/2026.

    For her entire life, Sunny Wells has been in Julian's hands.
    
    He named her. He chose her major. He got her a job. He decided what she ate, what she wore, who she spent time with — and called it love.
    
    When he found someone who challenged him intellectually and left Sunny behind, she had no idea how to exist without him. She had never learned.
    
    Then a car accident gave her one terrifying, clarifying moment: she did not want to die. She had not yet lived.
    
    *Blooming Alone* is the story of what Sunny builds next — through failed assignments, late nights, a competition she enters expecting to lose, and a prestigious career she earns entirely on her own.
    
    By the time Julian comes back to say he made a mistake, Sunny has found something far more valuable than his apology.
    
    She has found herself.

    Description:
    At fifteen, Rory Ellison was brilliant, ambitious, and completely out of options.
    
    An arranged engagement to Nathan Harrington — heir to one of the wealthiest families in the state — had been decided for her by a powerful old man she couldn't refuse. Nathan despised her. His mother plotted against her. And the professor who'd engineered it all watched from a distance, testing her without mercy.
    
    So Rory decided to play the long game.
    
    She would become Nathan's most devoted, most humiliating admirer. She would make herself indispensable to the family — and unbearable to him. She would maneuver every piece into place, and then, at exactly the right moment, walk away.
    
    *All I Ever Wanted Was Out* is a razor-sharp story of a girl who refused to be someone else's prize — and the decade it took to prove it.
    
    Some games are won by never playing the way they expect.
