Catch The Girl

Hunter My family’s bait shop always makes a fortune around the holidays when ice fishing season is in full swing. All our customers are rugged, outdoorsy types like me, so imagine my surprise when a gorgeous woman steps into Fresh Catch. She’s clueless and desperate to impress her colleagues with some great ice-fishing skills, so I offer to help her out. To my surprise, she’s the first woman to melt my grumpy exterior. Something tells me it’s not just fish I’ll be catching this Christmas. Eloise Telling my boss I’m an expert in ice fishing wasn’t my best move, but I was desperate. How was I supposed to know my white lie would prompt him to invite me to go fishing with him and his family during the holidays? To make matters worse, he also invited my colleague, who’s not only an expert in ice fishing but also in the running for the promotion I’m after. Not wanting to risk my career, I turn to the hot owner of Candy Cane Creek’s bait shop for help. If I can learn a thing or two about fishing and thaw his frozen heart in the process, I might have a merry Christmas after all. Mountain Man’s Christmas Catch is a short and steamy instalove romance full of heat and heart with NO cliffhanger, NO cheating, and a Guaranteed HEA. This book is part of Christmas in Candy Cane Creek, a steamy instalove romance series set in a small mountain town where every rugged mountain man finds a sweet and curvy woman to love during the holidays. ***SHORT, SWEET, STEAMY INSTA LOVE ROMANCE***

This coming-of-age story by multiple-award-winner Meg McKinlay is about loss and grief, dealing with change and fighting to hold on to what you can, while letting go of what you can’t. It’s 1979 and the sky is falling. Skylab, that is. Somewhere high above Frankie Avery, one of the world’s first space stations is tumbling to Earth. And rushing back with it are old memories. Things twelve-year-old Frankie thought she’d forgotten. Things her mum won’t talk about, and which her little brother Newt never knew. Only ... did he? Does he? Because as Skylab circles closer, Newt starts acting strangely. And while the world watches the sky, Frankie keeps her own eyes on Newt. Because if anyone’s going to keep him safe, it’s her. It always has been. But maybe this is something bigger than splinters and spiders and sleepwalking. Maybe a space station isn’t the only thing heading straight for calamity.
