Summary
You've been Harry Castillo's personal assistant for five years - making sure everything runs smoothly in his life. You've been there for it all - good and bad - particularly Harry's quest to find that special someone to love and marry. Now he thinks he might have found it in Lucy Mason - his brother's matchmaker.
But you're not convinced. There's something about Lucy that you just can't put your finger on, but which tells you that she's not the one he should be with. But there's only so much that you can say, because you and Harry are not friends. This is a professional business relationship. Deep down, you believe you can give him everything he needs, but you can never tell him because you don't want whatever this is to end.

Summary
Joel Miller is a gruff as they come, the world having changed him for the worst. But settling in Jackson with his brother changed him for the better. He's known around town as someone to help, whether it be with home repairs, construction, and hand carved trinkets. An offhand comment from you inspires him to branch out and create helpful kitchen wares. And it seems everyone has been gifted one from him, except for you. It makes you rethink the casual friendship you had developed with the man that had just begun to expand beyond patrols.

Summary
Newly settled into Jackson City, you’re assigned to patrol duty with Joel Miller; a man of rough edges and a cold facade. What begins as forced proximity slowly shifts into something raw and all-consuming.
But as the past creeps forward through old wounds and the ever-present threat of the world outside Jackson's walls, your feelings for one another become both a sanctuary and a liability.
In a world already broken, where there is already so much to lose, can you let yourself love Joel Miller?
