When life hands you a hunky, rich hockey player…say yes. But Cassandra isn’t used to accepting help—and especially not from a sweet-talking, hunky man with more cash than she’s seen in her lifetime. And anyway, she’s got problems that are bigger than his bank account… Single dad Landon isn’t used to hearing no. Especially when he knows the only thing holding Cass back from agreeing to be his nanny is her pride and unfounded fears. How can he convince her that he’s worth counting on when it comes to helping her sick son, and she’s the best thing for his headstrong young daughter? It’s hard to keep saying no. Especially when love starts to grow… Too bad they agreed to live together out of convenience—and not out of love. Is it too late to change their deal? Find out in The Peppermint Lodge, a standalone sweet romance set in the small town of Sweetheart Creek, Texas. Enjoy hockey players, ranchers, single moms and single dads, crazy errant armadillos, laughter and tears all within this sweet relationship of convenience romance.
