Fulfilling February
February "Val" Calendar is one of twelve adopted sisters, and she loves her entire huge and utterly crazy family. She really and truly does. It's just that lately...well, lately, she's been wondering about this empty feeling inside, this desire to be a part of something more.
She wonders if it's a result of not knowing her birth family, and Val's initial research has indicated a few options open to her. She's determined to use them all in her search to find where she really belongs.
Cord O'Connor is thrilled when he opens his front door one November afternoon to discover a gorgeous woman on his doorstep...but decidedly less thrilled when she tells him she might be his sister. He knows there's no way she's related to him, but before he can move their relationship in the direction he wants it to go, he's going to have to convince her of that, and the only option is to join her in her search for fulfillment.
But the more he gets to know Val, the more Cord realizes finding her birth family isn't going to fill the emptiness inside her. It's up to him to prove to Val she is already as loved as she possibly could be!
Now, if only he can convince her being related to him--not as a sibling--might be the most wonderful choice either of them has ever made, they'll both have a reason to be thankful this holiday season!

Adoring April
April Calendar might be a little obsessed with Christmas. Or a lot. As far as she's concerned, Christmas isn't just the most wonderful time of year, it's basically her reason for existing! Now, if she could--just once--manage to win the annual town Christmas Tree Decorating Contest and win the money her family's ranch so desperately needs, she'll be able to prove her Christmas obsession is actually useful!
Too bad she can't come up with a winning theme. And too bad she's paired up with the ranch's grumpy new handyman in her attempts to win the contest...no matter how hot he is.
Cole Carpenter only took on this new job because he wants to save money for the house he's building. He doesn't need the distraction of an adorable, far too energetic, Christmas-obsessed lady. And he definitely doesn't need to worry about some stupid tree-decorating contest.
But it's hard to deny her enthusiasm, though silly, is starting to make him feel pretty good inside. And it's impossible to deny how good she feels in his arms. Maybe there's something to this whole "Magic of the Christmas Season" thing after all. Maybe that's all it'll take for a grinch and an elf to find love this year!

Jilting June
When you're the sixth of twelve sisters, and the first five have all fallen in love and gotten married, one after the other, people start looking at you to make the "Next Big Announcement."
But June Calendar is having none of that. She's an accountant for goodness' sake, not some mushy-minded romantic twit! Junie is going to do this logically, and will simply fake a relationship with a man she'll tell her family is her "True Love." And when he breaks her heart, which will all be part of the agreement between them, her loving--yet overly-enthusiastic--family will have no choice but to let her live her life in peace...at least for a while.
Simple and logical.
Now to find a groom...
Poll Weston is flattered when his long-time crush asks him to save her from her family's good intentions, and even more so when Junie offers him--in exchange--the chance to partner with her in the annual Valentine's Day ice sculpting competition. After all, everyone knows she's the best sculptor Cauldron Valley has ever seen, so pairing with her would be a sure win for Poll...but will he be prepared to hold up his end of the bargain when the time comes?

Astonishing August
August “Sparky” Calendar is a simple sort of gal. Blue jeans, sneakers, and her colorful headwraps are all she needs in life…outside of her epic gaming laptop, her lucky voltmeter, and all of her ghost-hunting equipment. Sparky is determined to become Cauldron Valley’s resident supernatural investigator and is doing her best to be professional, which is a little difficult when she keeps tripping over her own two feet.
Jax Weston is at his wits’ end. He may be a high-powered CEO, but he simply can’t function without sleep. And thanks to the strange noises and creepy voices haunting the house he just moved into, he hasn’t been able to rest at all. When he hires a local ghost-hunter, he doesn’t see any reason why “August” shouldn’t move in with him for a week to investigate this strange phenomenon.
But the investigator isn’t a man, as Jax had assumed. Instead, she’s the adorable little bundle of energy he’d almost kissed at his brother’s wedding reception…and the attraction he’d felt then hasn’t lessened one bit. Sleep might be the last thing on Jax’s mind now that Sparky is living with him!

Only October
October Calendar wields a mean hammer. And rotary saw. And bit driver. As the resident handywoman on her family’s ranch, she doesn’t have time for something as silly as falling in love…no matter if her sisters claim it’s her turn. But she does have time for her prize student, Lacey, who wants her help to build her father something special. Which means October is suddenly spending a lot more time dreaming about the girl’s father, Clint, and his gorgeous muscles.
Single dad Clint Montoya isn’t afraid of hard work, which is a good thing, because he’s been struggling to keep his head above water since his daughter came into his life. He’s even started a business lately, but he’s run out of room in his tiny home to manage it. He needs more space…and some help. Luckily, that’s where intriguing October Calendar comes in. He’s had his eyes on her ever since Lacey started taking her classes, and Clint loves how much October has shaped his daughter. Can he convince her to help him do it on a more permanent basis?
October doesn’t have any idea what’s on Clint’s mind, but when Lacey suddenly needs her, she’ll move Heaven and Earth to help the girl. Thrown into Clint’s life, she’d determined to support the little family, even if she can’t stop thinking about her sisters’ teasing about love…
