The exciting sequel to Good Intentions Alex Carlisle has enough to deal with even on quiet days. Living with an angel and a succubus is no easy feat. One has divine responsibilities she can't explain, and the other tempts him toward a decadent lifestyle he's not sure he can manage. Add to that the stresses of college and trying to hold down a job, and it's lucky Alex can even keep his head on straight.Yet the complications keep on coming. An amorous (and terrifying) werewolf won't take no for an answer. Vampires from across the country want to know what happened to their allies in Seattle.

Finalist for the 2024 Pulitzer Prize in History Winner of Columbia University's 2024 Bancroft Prize in American History Winner of the 2024 Caughey Western History Prize Winner of the 2024 Spur Award Named a Best Civil War Book of 2023 by Civil War Monitor In Continental Reckoning renowned historian Elliott West presents a sweeping narrative of the American West and its vital role in the transformation of the nation. In the 1840s, by which time the United States had expanded to the Pacific, what would become the West was home to numerous vibrant Native cultures and vague claims by other nations. Thirty years later it was organized into states and territories and bound into the nation and world by an infrastructure of rails, telegraph wires, and roads and by a racial and ethnic order, with its Indigenous peoples largely dispossessed and confined to reservations. Unprecedented exploration uncovered the West’s extraordinary resources, beginning with the discovery of gold in California within days of the United States acquiring the territory following the Mexican-American War. As those resources were developed, often by the most modern methods and through modern corporate enterprise, half of the contiguous United States was physically transformed. Continental Reckoning guides the reader through the rippling, multiplying changes wrought in the western half of the country, arguing that these changes should be given equal billing with the Civil War in this crucial transition of national life. As the West was acquired, integrated into the nation, and made over physically and culturally, the United States shifted onto a course of accelerated economic growth, a racial reordering and redefinition of citizenship, engagement with global revolutions of science and technology, and invigorated involvement with the larger world. The creation of the West and the emergence of modern America were intimately related. Neither can be understood without the other. With masterful prose and a critical eye, West presents a fresh approach to the dawn of the American West, one of the most pivotal periods of American history.

In this steamy age-gap, forbidden-love cowboy romance for fans of Lyla Sage, Bailey Hanna, and Elsie Silver, a veterinarian is snowed in on a remote mountain ranch in Montana with the one man she definitely should not be fantasizing about...her ex-boyfriend's sexy, brooding father. Now a special edition paperback with sprayed edges, interior covers, and full color character art I've always done what was expected of me. Layla Birch, the good girl.Forced to grow up too fast. To take care of everything myself. I had a plan. Only, I didn't count on him. Colton Wilder. The cowboy nearly twice my age. He's my dream man. One who takes care of me, gives me a job, and makes my pulse thud harder every time he comes near. My ex-boyfriend's father. The nights are long and cold on top of this mountain. As the snow grows thicker and the tension builds between us, we're both inching closer to a line we shouldn't cross. Each day, it grows harder to resist the man who looks at me with longing in his eyes. It's tempting to forget about being the good girl for once. No one would find out. Would they?
My plan was to visit my boyfriend back home in Crimson Ridge for the holidays. Except, my surprise trip, after shutting up my florist shop for the festive season, only ended up revealing the worst kind of betrayal. Now, I'm hiding from the guy I just caught cheating on me, while stranded with a flat tire and a snowstorm approaching. All it took was a slip of my thumb, a press of the wrong contact name in my phone. Instead of dialing my best friend for help, I accidentally called my life-long cowboy crush. My best friend's father. Lucas Rhodes is a man I haven't seen in twelve months. Not since last New Year's Eve when he drove me home... alone. If we get snowed in together on his ranch tonight, how am I supposed to resist my every teenage fantasy when he's looking at me like that? Bouquets & Buckles is an interconnected stand-alone, novella set in the same world as the Crimson Ridge series.
I'm not supposed to feel this way... I never wanted to disappear more than while around my family. Briar Lane, the girl only useful for one thing: my surname. A business handshake and pawn to be traded. My father's chess piece shuffled between empires. That was my life back in L.A., but all it took was finding the dirty secret stuffed in a jacket pocket, and my entire world unraveled.So, I fled to the one place I knew they could never find me: Crimson Ridge. Arriving in this snowy, harsh world, I thought I'd be starting over on my own, but it turns out I couldn't have been more wrong. The abandoned mountain cabin I inherited isn't what it seems. This mountain hides secrets. An ex-pro bull rider consumes this space, and now, my every thought with it... St rmand Lane. My father's adopted brother. We should never have found ourselves isolated out here in the mountains together, each trying to outrun our pasts.All it took was one misunderstanding, one line almost crossed, and everything changed. A girl like me isn't supposed to know what those tattooed hands feel like, and I'm certainly not meant to feel butterflies anytime that pair of piercing blue eyes land on mine. He might be my every fantasy, a cowboy I constantly dream about, but he's a temptation I have to ignore. A man I absolutely cannot find myself attracted to. Even when he's looking at me with the kind of hunger that can only spell ruin for us both. Long, dark nights spent in this tiny cabin can't be the excuse to step into forbidden territory. Or can they? From international bestselling author Elliott Rose comes Braving the Storm, an interconnected standalone in the Crimson Ridge forbidden love series. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.
In this steamy age-gap, forbidden-love cowboy romance for fans of Lyla Sage, Bailey Hannah, and Elsie Silver, a free spirit finds herself working for a former pro bull rider... who has secrets behind those ocean-deep eyes. Being hired by a ranch for the summer sounds picture-perfect, right? Except your new boss looks a whole lot like every fantasy and daydream you've ever had come to life--oh, and he's already accidentally seen your favorite 'toy'. I've always been the hyper-independent free spirit. Sage Maloney, the wild child. The eldest daughter, with my heart locked away safely out of sight. I had a summer of fun ahead of me. Only, I didn't count on a former pro bull rider to stride into my life. Beau Heartford. The much older cowboy with a mustache to go weak at the knees for. He's a whole package of temptation. Someone who lures me in with glimpses of what it might be like to let my guard down... to be taken care of. My married boss. Summer days rapidly turn scorching in this sleepy little town among the mountains. As the temperature continues to climb, we're both stuck fighting a mutual attraction we can't ignore. Sparks fly, and we really should be putting more distance between the two of us. In this scenario, more is at stake than just crossing a line between boss and employee. There's a wedding band on this cowboy's finger.
