Focus on Working Man (BOOKFUNNEL EVENT 11 – 21 June)

Tragedy tore them apart and hate got in the way of love. Is a second chance even possible?

Micah Lennox left Whisper Ridge after promising the man he loved that he would never return. But the only way he knows to keep his pregnant sister and nephew safe is to go home. Spending winter in Wyoming opens too many old wounds, but he's on the run from justice which can't be far behind, and this is his last chance at redemption.

After a hostage situation leaves Doctor Daniel Sheridan struggling with PTSD, he returns to Whisper Ridge. Joining his dad in family practice is a balm to soothe his exhausted soul, and somehow, he finds a peace he can live with. That is until he meets Micah in a frozen graveyard, and the years of anger and feelings of betrayal boiling inside him, erupt.

Micah and Daniel have a past that was destroyed by lies and tragedy, and even if hate could turn to love, will Micah stay at Whisper Ridge?

Returning to his hometown, Kieran finds himself reunited with the one man he could never have.

It all started with a single birthday kiss, given on a dare, but for Kieran, it ignited a deep and unrequited love for Jordan, his brother’s boyfriend. Aware that their relationship can never be, Kieran makes the painful decision to leave Coopers Bay behind in order to protect his heart. Even the passing of his brother couldn't bring him back permanently; he only returns for the funeral before returning to his new life an ocean away in London.

However, when Kieran's sister pleads with him to come home for good, he reluctantly agrees, only to discover that the family business is on the brink of bankruptcy. To make matters worse, Jordan, the man he had fled from, is now burdened with despair and guilt. As they reconnect, old memories resurface, secrets are revealed, and emotions run high. Kieran and Jordan must confront their shared history and in doing so their friendship turns to love.

Now, the challenge lies in convincing Jordan that their love is worth fighting for.

When opposites attract, this bottom of the league team will never be the same again.

A stipulation in his father's will forces Mark back into the arms of a family that disowned him, and leaves him one-third owner of a hockey team facing financial ruin. He doesn't even watch hockey, let alone like it, and wants nothing more than to head back to New York. Then there's the new coach, a stubborn, opinionated, irritating man with superiority issues and questionable music taste. Butting heads with Rowen becomes the new normal, but it comes with passionate debate and an all-consuming lust.

Challenged to rebuild one of the worst teams in the league into a future cup contender, Rowen can't pass up the opportunity. Never in his twenty years of hockey has he ever seen a team managed so badly or coached players overflowing with resentment and bigotry. Yet there's something about this team and this city that compels him to roll up his sleeves and start dismantling. If only Mark, one of three siblings who now own the Raptors, wasn't so damned rock-headed yet so damned appealing his job might be easier. It doesn't look like either is willing to give in, but one night in a no-tell motel changes everything.
