​SALLY
What does a journalist do when they write the biggest story of their career – which also ends someone else's? Someone powerful? They get the hell out of Dodge. Or, in my case, New York City. The first job advert not in New York was for the editor of a local paper in backwoods West Virginia. In another life, I would drink cocktails and laugh at whoever thought it sounded like a dream job. In this life? I start Monday.
 
ALAN
One hundred and fifty years. That's how long a Cummings has stood on this land and farmed it, and now I'm the idiot who lost it all. The only way I can save the farm is to unlock an inheritance and use the cash to pay out the loan I am in default of. But that would require a bride in thirty days, so it will never happen. Only one woman in town would jump at the offer, and she was never an option.
 
When one person needs a fresh start – and a new name – and another needs a wife A.S.A.P., it's a match made in heaven... on paper. But when they meet, and sparks fly, they aren't the good kind. Can they deal well together to achieve their goals, or will they both lose everything, even each other?

​JULIA
I’ve done plenty of shady things in my life as a New York fixer, but this… this wasn’t shady, this was perhaps the noblest thing I could have done. And the thanks I get? Hiding out in the ass-end of nowhere, on the FBI’s wanted list. I thought life couldn’t get any worse… until I met the guy they sent after me.
 
HUGH
Working for the Rothwell Agency has its moments. I like working with a team – I’ve missed that since my Ranger days – but it also has its downsides, like having to travel to West Virginia to ferret out a kidnapper because the FBI couldn’t handle the job fast enough. Worse still, she’s… nice. How can a kidnapper have principles? I’m starting to think she might not be in the wrong, and that’s making me question everything.
 
When a night on the side of the road in Kansas changes everything between them, will Hugh cross the line to give Julia what she needs? And if he does, will it land them both in even deeper water?

She was everything he should never have wanted. And all he can think about.

HARRY
Colt Hardman has been my best friend since Elementary School. We grew up together, we joined the Marines together, and we came home to Hamilton Flats, West Virginia, together. There is nothing I wouldn’t do for Colt. I have lived by the bro code when it comes to him, and there’s one line you do not cross. You don’t mess with a man’s baby sister.
 
But Anna Hardman grew up to be a wet dream. Specifically, she grew up to be my wet dream. Soapy, wet, and showering right on the other side of the thin farmhouse wall we share. I have never broken the bro code in my life, but I’m just a man, and Anna is mine for the taking. How am I supposed to resist?

ANNA
Harry Sharpe was my childhood crush and my big brother’s best friend. I was supposed to grow up and get over those silly schoolgirl feelings, which became a million times harder when he moved into the bedroom next to mine.
 
It might have been achievable if I didn’t know that he wants me just as much as I want him. But I do know. I know how hard he’s fighting this attraction between us, and now I know exactly where the line is to make his control snap. He says Colton wouldn’t like it, but what does my brother have to do with anything?
 
Harry is playing with fire, walking a fine line between what he knows is the right thing by his best friend and what his heart – and Anna – want so badly. If Harry takes what he wants, he could lose Colt and everything he has ever known. But Harry is starting to realize that Anna Hardman is worth risking everything. All he has to do is reach out and take her.
Stay tuned for exciting developments!

How can everything he never knew he needed come wrapped up in a person he hates?  

CORY
It has been nine years since I last set foot in Hamilton Flats. A few things have changed. Daddy's ill, Mandy's gone, and everyone hates me. I don't care about them. They can hate me if they want. Only one person's anger can hurt me. I owe him an explanation, but I can't find the words, or the courage.
​
BOONE
Cory Stuart is back in town. How dare she show her face around here? I want nothing more than for her to leave again, but if she does, I may never get the answers I need. The answers Mandy deserves. I'm going to get my little sister justice, and I don't care who I have to go through to get it.

Hate might burn bright, but the truth always comes to light. Boone knows Cory has the answers he needs, but in order to get her to open up to him, he needs to set his anger aside. But Cory isn't the only person who knows what happened the night Mandy drowned, and some people will go to any lengths to keep the truth buried.

If coveting her is a sin, sign me up for hell.

JILL
Being the town outcast sucks. I never wanted this life, but it's the one I got. The only light in my life right now is that my sexy as sin boss, Blair Weaver, blows into town a few times a year. He's here now, and for the first time, I think he might see me as something other than a colleague.

BLAIR
Jill Marsh is the only bright spark in the dull monotony that is Hamilton Flats. She's always been too young, too pure, and too here for me to touch. But after I almost lost her to that idiot fiance of hers, I'm not going to burn my second chance. I have lusted after her for years, and now I'm finally going to taste her.

​Jill's world came crashing down once, and she still hasn't finished rebuilding it. She lost her fiance, her best friend, and any good standing she had in The Flats. Blair is the only person who doesn't look at her with pity, or disgust. But when he finds out her deepest, darkest secret, Jill knows it's only a matter of time before he turns away from her. Can she handle the idea of losing him too?

When the online girl of his dreams was in front of him in real life, he never stood a chance.

SHAW
I might not be able to stand having all eyes on me, but I'm damn good at video games. My favorite playing companion is a little elf. I know she lives in Hamilton Flats, but I have no idea who she might be. Life becomes even more complicated when Lyra Hertz walks into my folks barn to fix the baler. Maybe I don't want to know who my little elf is... I'd rather have Lyra.

LYRA
Shaw Mormont is the uber geek of my dreams. He has a series of superhero tees I'd kill to own, and I know for a fact he's hiding a serious set of muscles underneath them. His social anxiety is crippling, but I know a way to make him open up to me. He doesn't know it, but we've been playing online games together for almost a year. This elf is ready to play, and I aim to win.

Lyra finally manages to land her warrior elf, but trouble is waiting in the wings. If her little sister is taken from her, Lyra knows she will have no choice but to follow. Life without Jamie isn't an option. Will she walk away from Shaw, or can her warrior elf find a way to keep them all together?​

Recipe: Take one darkly damaged manwhore, and add a taste of sugar, spice, and all things nice. Let sit, and watch the sparks fly.

COLTON
I thought I was ready to come home. Twelve years in the Marines was enough for me. What I didn't count on is the nightmares, the guilt, and the inability to sleep without mindless sex. Not only that, but the only woman I truly want, I can't allow myself to touch. I'd drag her down into my world of pain and darkness. Rachel Mackay is everything beautiful and light, and I live for my weekly trips to the hardware store to see her.

RACHEL
I think I'm defective. Colton Hardman is the town manwhore, and he won't look at me twice. The closest I can get to a date with him is teaching him to recognize scents so he can tell me what his baby nephew smells like. Who knew analyzing perfume in the Pharmacy would be the sexual highlight of my year?

​Colt is determined to keep Rachel away from his darkness, but when her world comes crashing down, he can't help but pull her back up, safe in his arms. He is so close to having everything he ever wanted... everything he doesn't deserve. Can he let go of his guilt, or will he push her away and lose her forever?​

A fresh start, a neighborly war, and a sweet as apple pie harpy filled with hellfire. What more could a man rebuilding his life ask for?

JORDAN
When I needed a fresh start, Hamilton Flats presented the perfect opportunity. Colt and Rachel have been amazing, and the house they're letting me stay in is incredible. The best part? I have the neighbor from hell. We're locked in a war, and I haven't enjoyed myself this much in years.

STELLA
The ex-Marine from hell has moved in beside me. I have no idea how he has everyone fooled into thinking he's this perfect specimen, but I know the truth. I'm not afraid to fight dirty. If he thinks he can best me, he has anothing thing coming.

​Their prank-like antics keep the whole street amused, but Jordan and Stella never expected to find anything other than annoyance, or smug satisfaction in each other. When they tumble over the line into a relationship, neither is ready for what that means. When things come to a head, they need to decide if this thing is for real, or if it's time to walk away.​

She has always wanted him, and he has never looked at her twice. But now she's on his radar, he can't stop seeing her everywhere.

​EMMETT
I gave up everything when my mama got sick, and I never regretted it for an instant. Now I have a chance to take something just for me. Thea Irving. The most perfect woman alive. I need to have her. No matter the consequences.

THEA
The nickname Slow Thea has followed me since high school. I'm not stupid. I just can't concentrate, and who even understands math anyway? I don't need math, I have flowers. Who would want anything else? There is one other thing I have always wanted... Emmett Greste. I always thought he would never look twice at me, but now he's mine for the taking.

​Emmett knows he would do anything to have Thea, but his desire is put to the ultimate test when the one thing standing between them is his mama, and her health. He gave up everything to be there for his mama ten years ago, but is he ready to give up Thea? ​

He's strong, silent, and has always been hers, even when she didn't know it.

JULES
Hamilton Flats is like a black hole. No matter how far you run, it eventually sucks you home. A stay in the sheriff cell's isn't how I imagined my first night home. Staring down Deputy Alton Meyers, trying to forget our amazing night four years ago isn't how I saw things going either. Now I'm home for good, I need to figure out how to navigate being a Braceman in The Flats, and being back in Alton's life.

ALTON
When Julia Braceman left town four years ago, I wasn't nearly done with her. I have spent the last four years trying to save her kid twin brothers because she was out of my reach. Now she's back, and she's all I can think about. 

​When two sides of the law come together, something's got to give. Can Alton truly believe that Jules has left her Braceman past behind, or will it always be a wall between them? When it matters the most, can Jules trust that he will always see the best in her?​​

Sometimes you don't need words to tell someone they are your everything.

ROSE
All my life, I have watched everyone else interacting so easily with the world. I wish my tongue would work when people are looking at me. A conversation longer than a few awkward words is my goal. Dr. Brad Greene makes me feel things I wish I had the words to say. But there's no way he'd even look at me. I can't string two sentences together in front of him. 

BRAD
It's been years, and I've finally managed to chip away at Rose's crippling shyness. She's agreed to work with me. The next step is getting her to actually have a conversation. The last thing I need is the ex-wife from hell blowing into town to shove Rose right back into her shell.

​After worming his way into Rose's life, and behind her thick defenses, Brad isn't ready for the destruction his ex-wife is determined to leave in her wake. The painfully shy nurse has captured his heart, and he's not ready to lose her. Can he show her that she is what he needs, or will she retreat, causing him to lose her forever?​

He never wanted an ice princess. But now he has her, he can't let her go.

SEAN
Hamilton Flats. After five years, I'm finally home. I didn't leave under a cloud. I left under a damn blizzard. There are people I'm not ready to face, and one I can't seem to stop seeing everywhere. Margaret Doherty is the perfect ice princess. I like my women to be real. Warm. So why can't I look away?

MEG
Having Sean Hill is the last thing on my bucket list before I leave Hamilton Flats for good. One night. That's all I want. Surely that's not too much to ask? I had given up on that dream, but he's finally back in town. It's time to make my move. Now I just need to convince him that one night with me will be worth it.

When the perfect woman walks into Sean's life again and again, he'd be crazy not to take the leap. But the shadows of his past are brushing against him, and he won't let them taint Meg. When the decision is taken out of their hands, how will they react? Can they walk away, or can this last forever?
