A Stone Creek Christmas Stone Creek veterinarian Olivia O"Ballivan communicates easily with animals, but men are another story. Especially rugged architect-turned-rancher Tanner Quinn. Olivia"s uncanny bond with his daughter Sophie"s pony has him questioning her sanity, while she wonders if he"s not just a drugstore cowboy. Then twelve-year-old Sophie conspires with Olivia to get Tanner into the spirit of Christmas. But will a holiday miracle transform the globe-trotting Tanner into a rancher—and family man—for all seasons? At Home In Stone Creek Everyone in Ashley O"Ballivan"s life is marrying and starting families—except her. But why bother dating when no one can compare to Jack McCall, the man who left her heartbroken years ago? Now he"s back in town —and maybe he isn"t who she thinks he is. While recovering from a dangerous mission for the DEA, security expert Jack rents a room in Ashley"s bed-and-breakfast. For both their sakes, he tries to keep his distance, though neither can deny the growing spark between them. But when his past catches up with him, he"ll have to leave again…just as he realizes where he"s always belonged—in Stone Creek.
