Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy small-town settings where everyone knows your business and meddles in your love life with good intentions.
  • You love stories where kids play Cupid and actually get it right, creating genuine chemistry between reluctant adults.
  • You appreciate RaeAnne Thayne's signature warmth: slow burns with heart, ranching details that feel lived-in, and emotional depth beneath the romance.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced, high-stakes romance where tension comes from external conflict rather than internal emotional walls.
  • You're not interested in stories centred on small-town community events like dances and holiday fundraisers.
  • You want edgy or morally grey characters; this is earnest, good-hearted romance without cynicism.

About this book

This collection contains two western romances set in Salt River. The first story, originally published as The Valentine Two-Step in 2002, follows Matt Harte, a single father and rancher who has learned not to trust women after his wife left him due to her inability to adapt to ranch life. When his daughter Lucy volunteers him to help plan the town's annual Valentine's Day dance, Matt finds himself on a small committee with Ellie Webster, a veterinarian who recently moved to Salt River. Matt is reluctant about working with Ellie and believes she doesn't belong in his town. Ellie, for her part, is aware of his resistance to her presence. As they work together on the dance planning, both must navigate their growing attraction to one another.
