Jorgen is her older brother's best friend. Eric is her childhood nemesis. For as long as Gina Davidson could remember, Jorgen Backman has been like an older brother. Then one day, the lines between the friends blurred. Gina never suspected something or someone stirred Jorgen to change. Unprepared for the games Jorgen likes to play, Gina gets caught in a trap that breaks her heart and has the potential to ruin her reputation. After a series of failed relationships, Eric Sandberg heeds his parents' advice to court a woman who is set to inherit more than him--Gina Davidson. Her father agrees with the pairing, so it should be an easy match. Except Eric didn't take into consideration that she'd remember how poorly he treated her when they were growing up. Nor did he expect Jorgen Backman's attempts to keep her for his own. Gina's father has made it clear. Marriage is in her future. He doesn't want his daughter to be alone when he moves on. When all the cards are on the table, who will win the chance to win Gina's heart? Read this second book of the Ashbrook, Montana series to meet friends and families that will stay with you long after the last page is turned. While this book is part of a series, it is a stand-alone novel that delivers a happily ever after.

Discover the three types of love--and the key to finding the one you're truly meant to be with. We love and we love again -- sometimes our hearts get broken but, somehow, we find the courage to dive back in. In this soul-searching book, relationship expert Kate Rose guides readers down the path to a deeper understanding of who they are, what they want, and finally, to the discovery of their Twin Flame. According to Rose, love is a journey of self-discovery and every relationship we have in our lives teaches us something that we need to learn about ourselves and what will make us truly happy. She introduces readers to the three types of love we will all experience: The Soulmate introduces us to the dream of love, but somehow what seemed like it would be "happily ever after" wasn't meant to last forever. We are so consumed with making The Karmic Love work that we often fail to question whether it should work. As painful as it is to accept, this love that felt so right in the beginning is actually all wrong. The Twin Flame comes into our lives and often we don't even know it's love because . . . it's too easy. This is the love who helps us to accept ourselves just as we are because this is precisely what they do. In You Only Fall in Love Three Times, Kate Rose shows us that happy endings may not happen quite the way they do in fairytales-- but they happen nonetheless.

Honoring her mother’s wishes, Tiffany reluctantly travels west to meet her estranged father and his enemy’s eldest son, rancher Hunter Callahan. Once the Warrens and the Callahans are united by marriage, both clans will stop squabbling over a disputed strip of land. But in the chaos of a train robbery Tiffany seizes a golden opportunity: By assuming the identity of her father’s new housekeeper she can live with the father she never knew while assessing the character of the neighboring cowboy to whom she is betrothed.

Now Tiffany, masquerading as Jennifer Fleming, finds herself living in the enemy camp, under the same roof as her fiancé, a handsome, sweettalking charmer whom she has to fight off because he can’t keep his eyes— or his hands—off Jennifer.

As Hunter goes about claiming his rightful bride-to-be, he knows he loves two women—proper, elegant Tiffany as well as spunky, passionate Jennifer—but he has only one heart to win.
