My ex-husband has a new girlfriend. Good for him—we've been divorced for three years. But Dogwood Grove is a small town. And I can't stand the pitying looks, like my coolness rating plummeted just because he found someone new before I did. My friend wants to have an all-girls dinner out for Valentine's Day, but the last thing I want is the town whispering that I couldn't get a date. Except I can't tell her no. I'm a chronic people pleaser. The only way out is to find a date for Valentine's Day. I'm puzzled when I find Hunter Thomson, one of Dogwood Grove's most eligible bachelors—of the sexy, confident, loner variety—perched on my tree with a chainsaw, cutting the dead branches. But he's a guy and he's standing right there. It's almost too easy to convince Hunter to be my fake date. Little do I know, for him, there's nothing fake about it. Hearts in February is a spicy, fake-Valentine, small-town romance with a heroine who needs a fake date to save face and the hero who's all too happy to help her… but can he convince her to give love a second chance? The books in the A Year in Dogwood Grove series are short standalones with a guaranteed HEA. Perfect for a busy schedule. You get all the romance feels and small-town shenanigans in one sitting. Read them in any order. You'll find a familiar face every time you come back and know that you're always home in Dogwood Grove.
