Victoria Chancellor

Billionaire Wyatt McCall left some unfinished business behind when he left town fifteen years ago. Like Toni Casale, his former love. Now the mayor of Brody's Crossing, Toni is already putting Wyatt to work for the holidays. But does the bossy blonde know she takes his breath away?

Wyatt is still sexy, still gorgeous and still pulling the outrageous stunts that made him famous in high school. If Toni doesn't watch out, she will fall for Wyatt all over again. But it may already be too late. Because this time around, the Texan troublemaker is planning something that could reunite him with the woman he loves...and give their hometown a Christmas they'll never forget!

Christie Simmons left Fort Worth behind for good reasons. A new life in Brody's Crossing means her son can know his father. Christie and Cal Crawford had a brief affair before he left to go overseas, and she's sure that finding out about the baby wasn't the homecoming he imagined.

Everything in Cal's life is upside down, starting with the fact that his cattle ranch, the Rocking C, is raising everything except cows. Now he's discovering there's a lot more to being a dad than just fathering a child.

But as a man who believes in tradition, can Cal change everything about his life? More important, will Christie a woman he's growing closer to every day be there if he doesn't?

Greg Rafferty believes he's losing his mind! Why else would he bid on –– and win –– little Jennifer Jacks' prize–winning bull? It could have something to do with her doesn't–look–old–enoughto– be–a–mum appearance, or that she's the woman behind the successful Ms Carole's Cookie company.

Greg was not expecting a blonde, blue–eyed goddess. And he knows Carole is keeping something big from him. Why is such a beautiful woman so publicity shy? Maybe some kisses might persuade her to share her secrets and let this long–time bachelor become the daddy and husband she needs!

Texas is a long way from Oregon, but Amanda Allen isn't planning to make her stay in Brody's Crossing permanent. All she wants is to meet the brothers she only recently discovered she had and head back out mission accomplished. But what to do about Leo Casale? The tempting Texan is doing his level best to make her feel right at home.

Leo is completely captivated by the stranger with secret! written all over her. He wants to help her, but Amanda refuses to confide in him. Does she have to be so stubborn and independent?

Things are happening way too fast. Suddenly, Amanda has a whole new family to get to know, including a certain irresistible charmer who's making her believe that she belongs here, too!

Can An Old–Fashioned Cowboy

The minute Raven York sets foot in Brody's Crossing, Texas, she knows there's been a mistake. Expecting to find a heritage garden to restore, she lands instead on the doorstep of the town's hottest cowboy, who's fighting to save his family's cattle ranch from bankruptcy.

Find Happiness With A Vegetarian?

Troy Crawford has requested the help of a seasoned ranchero turn the Rocking C around. What he gets is a farmer from

New Hampshire, a strict vegetarian who adopts stray dogs and tries to send his calves off to a petting zoo.

Raven and Troy may not see eye to eye about how to run a ranch, but the sparks flying between them are mutual. Can a Yankee like Raven be with a dyed–in–the–wool Texan in a forever kind of way? Or is she destined to be a Texan only temporarily?

Christmas Cheer In A Small Texas Town

No sooner has Scarlett, a hairstylist from Atlanta, Georgia, shouted, "California, here I come!" than her clunker of a car breaks down. There are worse places to be stranded than Brody's Crossing, especially when hunky local James Brody is dying to show her how they celebrate the holidays in their quaint Texas town.

James can't believe this far–out redhead was planning on spending Christmas without her family. Especially when family means so much to him it's why he moved back home. He knows there's no way he can keep a big–city girl in a place like this for long but can he keep her here long enough to explore the feelings growing between them?

Maybe so, because even though Scarlett promised herself she'd be in Los Angeles by the New Year, she's becoming more Texan by the minute!

When Cassie McMann first visited Brody's Crossing she fell in love with all things western, so left behind her prim and proper life, and moved to Texas. Dancing into the arms of rodeo champ and good–time cowboy Charlie Yates at a friend's wedding seems like a fine way to prove she's is now a true–blue Texan.

Texan…and pregnant!

While the circumstances aren't ideal, Cassie is determined to raise her baby alone. But that's not going to sit well with her straight–laced family, and they're coming to visit. Charlie is happy to agree to a temporary arrangement, changing his status from bachelor for daddy and husband–to–be. It's only until Cassie's family leaves town.

But Charlie's starting to think less about temporary, and more about forever. Because he can't get his mind off a cute little cowgirl he wants to call his own!
