A runaway bride shouldn’t trust anyone, least of all her orc cowboy savior. But every time he looks at me, I lose the urge to run.Beth: I’ve been controlled my whole life. First by my father. Then by the man he was forcing me to marry. Instead of saying I do, I ran, landing into the arms of a brawny orc cowboy with quiet strength and dark eyes that see too much. Ruugar swears he'll protect me, but I see the way he looks at me, like he’s holding himself back. Like I belong to him. And maybe I do. I thought running meant freedom, but what if being with Ruugar is the only place I was meant to be?Ruugar: Beth is my mate. I knew it the second she touched me, and fate burned her mark into my skin. But she was promised to another, and an honorable male never steals what isn't his. Now, she’s fled her wedding. She’s desperate and terrified, and I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Even if it means ignoring how much I want her. Even if it means hiding her in plain sight, disguised as a boy on the tourist trail ride we’re leading across the plain. But out here, away from the world, it’s hard to resist what was always meant to be.Rough Riding Orc Cowboy is Book 2 in the Brides of the Lonesome Creek Orcs Series.

Escaping my past is tough. Staying immune to one sweet, bumbling orc cowboy's heart-melting charm might be impossible.Gracie: Escaping my old life as a reality TV star was supposed to be my fresh start, not a one-way trip to a dusty Wild West town with a fake saloon, real orcs, and a pet raven who meows. But when I take a job at Lonesome Creek, a Western-themed orc tourist destination that desperately needs social media help, I find myself dodging pink ostrich-chickens, wrangling content, and falling hard for one broody orc cowboy who makes muffins like a dream and kisses like he means it. I came here to fix a brand, not catch feelings. But if I can’t figure out how to make this work, I might lose more than just a paycheck. I might lose the best thing I’ve ever found.Tark: I knew Gracie was my fated mate the instant we touched. She’s bright, bold, and smells like hope. I run the social media for Lonesome Creek, which mostly means posting blurry photos and coming up with hashtags while elbow-deep in mud or feathers. But ever since she showed up, I’ve been trying to act like a normal, charming orc instead of a lovesick disaster. I fumble my words. I panic when she smiles. I’m more comfortable with wounded animals than a beautiful woman who makes my heart pound. But I know she’s the one. If I can’t convince her that this odd little town—and this bumbling, soft-hearted orc—are worth loving, she’ll leave when the job ends. And I’ll be left missing the person I didn’t know I’d been waiting my whole life for.Wrangling the Orc Cowboy is Book 1 in the Brides of the Lonesome Creek Orcs Series.

Aiden Valentine has a secret: he's fallen out of love with love. And as the host of Baltimore's romance hotline, that's a bit of a problem. But when a young girl calls in to the station asking for dating advice for her mom, the interview goes viral, thrusting Aiden and Heartstrings into the limelight. Lucie Stone thought she was doing just fine. She has a good job; an incredible family; and a smart, slightly devious kid. But when all of Baltimore is suddenly scrutinizing her love life-or lack thereof—she begins to question if she's as happy as she thought. Maybe a little more romance wouldn't be such a bad thing. Everyone wants Lucie to find her happy ending... even the handsome, temperamental man calling the shots. But when sparks start to fly behind the scenes, Lucie must make the final call between the radio-sponsored happily ever after or the man in the headphones next to her.
