This cowboy has made a list—checked it twice—and she’s about to find out exactly how right they are for each other. Cowboy Alex Thorne was a pain in quiet Yvette Wright’s side for years, but when he suddenly left Heart Falls, she missed his smart mouth and sexy smile. Now he’s back with a Christmas gift she can’t resist. A homemade advent calendar fashioned from an antique cabinet, each locked drawer full of teasing reasons why they belong together. It took far too long for Alex to realize why he’d relentlessly poked and teased his favourite Heart Falls veterinarian, but he’s determined to make up for lost time now that he knows Yvette is the only one for him. He’ll need to convince her that in spite of their differences, they’re not headed into a holiday fling. Christmas magic will need to be extra shiny and bright this year for these not-quite-enemies to become lovers for a lifetime—and a united force against anyone, or anything, that would tear them apart. --- Keywords: Canadian Author, cowboy, western, contemporary, small town, Christmas, enemies to lovers, secrets, holiday romance, cocky hero, friends with benefits, new starts, choices, sagas For readers who enjoy: Jennifer Ryan, Joan Johnston, Kate Pearce, Linda Lael Miller, Lindsay McKenna, Diana Palmer, Maisey Yates, Vicki Lewis Thompson, Lorelei James.

She's the beauty with a smile that won't quit and a heart of gold. He's the cranky, prideful rancher who wants help from no one. Trouble is... she won't take no for an answer. Quirky, six-foot-tall Clara Miller has it all. And although she's on the bigger side, she's gorgeous from head to toe. She's got all the money she could ever need, a successful ranch where she gets to tend to her chickens and vegetable garden, and a Papa and siblings who are loving and supportive. So why does it still feel like something's missing? Nathan Westbrook is living a nightmare. He's angry, bitter, scarred, in constant pain, and beyond frustrated. Getting struck by lightning will do that to a man. He was practically self-sustained on his homestead. Now it's tough just getting dressed everyday, much less getting the animals fed and the gardens tended to. When Clara volunteers at church to take a meal and groceries to a man on the outskirts of town, she has no idea what she's in for. After all, she just wants to be of service. And seeing folks enjoy her food makes her day. Nathan doesn't want anyone's help. He's a loner and likes it that way. Then one day, she busts down his door, and everything changes. Can this country beauty tame the beast Nathan has become? Or will he run her off before she has the chance...

Cole only intended to help Maddy out with the holidays. But the moment she and her boys arrive at his ranch, they capture his heart completely. Convincing Maddy to give him a chance won't be nearly as easy. He's got the Secret Santa presents covered, but the gift Cole really wants to give Maddy is his love. Will Maddy be brave enough to accept it?
