The Westwoods

Good things don’t happen to a woman like Evelyn Fisher. In a few short years, she’s experienced a lifetime of disappointment. But her latest setback has proven to be a bigger debacle than she ever imagined. Malcolm Westwood wouldn’t know hardship if it smacked him in the face. The heir to his family’s business and massive fortune, he’s lived a good life. Maybe a little too good. And that’s why it’s all on the line.

The Westwood Company is expanding. Leading the charge is Wyatt Westwood, and he’s as determined as ever to see it through. His dedication, work ethic, and commitment to his career have propelled him through the ranks of the company, where he now sits just one notch shy of CEO. Unfortunately, one small problem has brought the expansion to a grinding halt, and it’s up to Wyatt to fix it. Rhea Marks is a woman some might call a spitfire. She wasn’t always that way, but life taught her to be hardworking and determined, and to never let anyone take advantage of her.

When Skye Callahan’s boyfriend tells her he’s been cheating with her best friend, one thing becomes clear. She’s nearly lost it all. No family, no friends, and now, no boyfriend. Fortunately, Skye’s got her bookshop, and she’s beginning to think that’s the only thing worth holding onto. Unfortunately, something comes flying through the front door of her store, leaving her wondering how things could possibly get any worse.

There’s no place like home. Especially not for Ava Carson. She’s traveled the world, and always comes back to Landing. Maybe it’s the weather, the small town, or the people that make her feel that way. Or perhaps it’s just one person and his family. Tate Westwood. Best friends with his sister, Tate’s family has become hers. That’s why she knows she’ll never be able to have him the way she wants. She’s nothing more than an annoying little sister to him.

Being a Westwood isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Sure, Ivy loves her family, their business, and knowing she’s got a secure future. But there’s a downside, too. Love. Ivy’s convinced she’ll never have the happy ending her three older brothers have found. But she’s determined to put herself out there anyway. Marco Kingston doesn’t have a care in the world. He loves his life, his job, and his family. He even loves his best friend’s family, the family he works for. Despite his closeness to the Westwood family, Marco’s never considered the possibility of something more meaningful with Ivy.

Layla Snow knows she screwed up. It’s been years since she made the biggest mistake of her life and walked away from the only man she’s ever loved. Liam Westwood has lived a shell of a man for years after the love of his life walked away from him. He knows he should move on, but he can’t. Liam’s haunted by the memory of her. Unfortunate circumstances force Layla to return to Landing, and the last thing she needs is to run into Liam. But it’s a small town, and word travels fast. When Liam learns Layla is back, he seeks her out. And Layla learns just how much damage she’s done.

Jules Westwood lives her days surrounded by the sweetest treats. But there’s no cookie, cake, or muffin that comes close to giving her the same joy she feels when she sees him. The man who’s a bit rough around the edges with his laidback attitude and carefree lifestyle is exactly what she wants. Because despite what her family believes, Jules is a bit of a rebel. Beau Easton didn’t know who Jules was when he first approached her, merely believing a date with her would be much more satisfying than the cookies he bought from her bakery.
