Five sons, their perfect matches, and our family grows bigger every year. But this is our story-of how we met, fell, and grew our empire. This is the story of how we discovered the magic. Lena Stanley Riggins stole my heart back in high school. Our love blossomed amidst the chaos of life, surviving every challenge that came our way. We married young, determined to face the world together. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat, because what we built wasn't just a life, it's a home-for us and our five wonderful sons. Now that they have incredible wives of their own, they've given us a lively bunch of grandchildren, and our lives are filled with more love and laughter than ever before.

Having Lena by my side as we watch our love continue through the next generation is the greatest reward of all. It's a true testament to the enduring bond we forged in those high school hallways. Year after year, and breath by breath, she's still the one.

Maverick From the moment Stella rolled into town, she's had my attention. Since that moment, I've been determined to befriend the sexy single mom who's down on her luck. Stella has fallen on hard times, but something tells me she'll never take a handout. That doesn't mean I'm not going to try to help, so of course I put in a good word to get her a job. She's smart enough to know I had a hand in it, but that's what friends are for, right? With each day that passes, Stella becomes more than just a friend. She's my best friend-who I apparently can't keep my hands off. She's worried we're complicating things, but screw that. Blurred lines or not, I ask her to stay anyway.

What happens when your wandering heart is captured by your friend with benefits? Scarlett Archer Kincaid is supposed to be all the fun and none of the strings, but the longer I stay in Willow River, the more I feel roots pulling me to settle down. I plan to complete a one-year photography contract with Captured Moments, then move on to travel the world. Chasing my dreams, taking photos, and living life on my terms-shot by shot. But I've been on my own since losing my adopted parents, and home isn't about a place as much as it is a feeling. And Archer's starting to feel like home, but loving him means trading one dream for another. Archer Scarlett Hatfield is the kind of girl who can't be tamed. Her adventurous spirit is contagious, but a blue-collar man like me doesn't chase dreams. I build them from the ground up. And my home is in Willow River. I can see myself building a life with the gorgeous redhead who's turning my world upside down, but that means clipping her wings. And I could never do that, not when she's meant for more than my small-town life. Even if it means destroying my heart, when the time comes, I'll have to say goodbye and let her stay wild.

Griffin All it takes is four days to change my carefully planned-out life. Four days to fall for Peyton Monroe. Four days to convince her to give me... us a chance. Before her, baseball was the center of my world. Being the best. Getting a full-ride scholarship. Getting drafted. Going pro. But from the moment my frisbee lands at her feet on the beach, I can't stop thinking about her. She's beautiful, funny, smart... and lives thirteen hours away. Long-distance love is a complication I should avoid, but staying away from Peyton is not an option. This goes beyond the team and my love of the game. Peyton I'm looking to get away, not searching for love. But it all but lands at my feet on spring break anyway. A beach full of hot guys, and of course I find myself falling for a handsome baseball player. Griffin Anthony's charming smile draws me in. We fall hard and fast, but when it's time to say goodbye, he tries to convince me that we can make this work long distance. Now I'm torn between following tradition and playing it safe or throwing out the rule book and following my heart across the miles. He wants me to trust our connection. Can I risk my heart?

Parker Of all the hot guys in the club, of course I find myself tangled up with a baseball player. Our chemistry is out of the park, igniting as his athletic body moves next to mine. I know exactly who he is, but the infamous Holden Bailey has no idea who I am, or my connection to the team. I prefer it that way. I give in to one dance with Holden and send him home alone. He can have any woman he wants, but for some reason, he wants me. His pursuit is relentless. He wrote the playbook on being a player, though. Giving in could cost me my heart. Holden I thought getting traded to the Blaze was life changing, but it's nothing compared to meeting Parker Monroe. From the moment she bumps into me on the crowded dance floor, I can't tear my eyes away. She's gorgeous, intelligent, and definitely not interested. At least not in the player the media portrays me to be. I need to convince her that with her, I'm authentic, and what we have is the real thing. Game on. When the truth gets twisted, it looks like I'm playing her. But she has it all wrong. The way I feel about Parker is beyond the play. She's my end game.
