Originally published as Big Girls Don't Cry, this charming romance shows that sometimes Mr Right couldn't be more wrong, and Mr Wrong couldn't be more right... Thanks to a devastating revelation about her husband, Reenie Holbrook's once-perfect marriage is over. For eleven years she had the life she wanted - and now it's gone. Reenie decides that the first step in recovering from her ordeal is to find work; after all, she has three young children to support. She's thrilled when she lands a job at Dundee High teaching history - until Isaac Russell, the man who triggered the unravelling of her marriage, accepts a temporary position teaching science. Then she's tempted to quit. Reenie doesn't care if the whole town admires Isaac and she won't admit that, secretly, she admires him, too - nor that she's starting to feel more than just admiration for him...

You’re invited to a wedding in Whiskey Creek… Unfortunately, it’s the wrong wedding. Olivia Arnold is arranging the festivities — and it’s the hardest thing she’s ever done.

ABOUT THE BOOK Don't miss the first trip to Moose Falls, Alaska where a down-on-his-luck football player and a sassy restaurant owner find themselves going from enemies to lovers in this small-town romance — perfect for fans of Brenda Novak and Annie Rains! A small-town restaurateur and a big city former football player go head-to-head in this heartfelt enemies-to-lovers romance . . . As the oldest of three brothers, former pro-football player Xavier Stone is no stranger to making tough calls. Like returning to his small hometown of Moose Falls, Alaska to help run his grandmother’s hard cider company and gastro pub. He agrees to keep an open mind, but between working with his estranged father and confronting heavy childhood memories with his brothers, Xavier’s ready to rush back to civilization. Even the stunning woman who runs his grandmother’s restaurant seems to instantly dislike him . . . True Everett knows better than to let a ridiculously handsome man distract her, especially when it’s the same guy who stands between her and owning Northern Exposure, the tavern she manages. She didn’t pour her soul into the restaurant just for Xavier to swoop in and snatch away her dreams. But amid all the barbs—and, fine . . . all the sparks—flying, True glimpses the man beneath the swagger. That version of Xavier, the real one, might just steal True’s heart. AMAZON MY THOUGHTS..... This is a fantastic love story, but it isn't just about romantic love. Author Belle Calhoune explores the family love and devotion between the Stone brothers and their grandmother Hattie, and there's also another strong family bond shared by True Everett and her younger brother. Both Xavier and True have been a part of family units that have been torn apart and they each carry scars from their pain. They've also known the disappointment of failed romantic relationships. Could these common losses be the foundation for a lasting gain? Calhoune is an author who never disappoints! Well-defined characters, realistic plot developments, and beautiful settings are guaranteed, but we must never forget the romance. True and Xavier share a wonderful chemistry and some of the scenes are swoon-worthy, to say the least, but never fear, "Falling for Alaska" is a clean romance! I loved this heartwarming contemporary romance that's filled with family, hope, and second chances. I look forward to returning to Moose Falls, Alaska! I received a copy of this book from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review. My rating: 4 of 5 stars ABOUT THE AUTHOR Belle Calhoune writes heartwarming, inspirational romance novels set in small, cozy towns. Married to her college sweetheart and living in southern Connecticut, she is the mother of two girls. Born and raised in Massachusetts, she is one of five children. Growing up across the street from a public library allowed her to become an avid reader who aspired to be a romance writer. When she isn't writing, she enjoys reading, spending time in Cape Cod, traveling and enjoying time with friends and family. Belle hopes her books will provide readers with inspiration, entertainment, and an escape from day-to-day life.

New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak welcomes you to Silver Springs, a picturesque small town in Southern California where even the hardest hearts can learn to love again… Struggling to make ends meet after a messy divorce, Sadie Harris is at the end of her tether. Her waitressing gig isn't enough to pay the bills let alone secure primary custody of her son, Jayden, a battle she refuses to lose. Desperate, she accepts a position assisting Dawson Reed – the same Dawson Reed who recently stood trial for the murder of his adoptive parents. Joining him at his isolated farm seems risky, but Sadie is out of options. Dawson has given small town Silver Springs plenty of reasons to be wary, but he's innocent of the charges against him. He wants to leave his painful past behind and fix up the family farm so he can finally bring his dependent sister home where she belongs. As Sadie and Dawson's professional relationship grows into something undeniably personal, Sadie realises there's more to Dawson than the bad boy everyone else sees – he has a good heart, one that might even be worth fighting for.
