The Naughty List Ranch Series
Genre: Contemporary Small Town
Holiday Romance
Saddle up for Naughty List Ranch!
Four cowboys. One Christmas tree ranch. And the women they never saw coming.
Years ago, they were troubled teens sent to the snowy wilds of Havenstone, Montana. But at the Maas Family Ranch, they found more than chores and second chances—they found brotherhood.
Now they're all grown up—rugged, irresistible, and about to be blindsided by love. From surprise reunions to small-town sparks, these men are about to meet the women who'll steal their hearts…and heat up their holidays.
These cowboys found family at the ranch. Now they’ll find forever under the mistletoe.
Four standalone romances. One unforgettable bond. All the holiday magic you could want, wrapped in flannel and sinfully hot kisses.
HER GRUMPY COWBOY
by Violet Rae & Fern Fraser
Tropes: Grumpy x Sunshine/Wounded Warrior
Protective Hero/He Falls First/Forced Proximity
Virgin Heroine
Some ghosts can only be silenced by love—and maybe a little Christmas magic.
Grady
I wasn’t supposed to come back to Havenstone.
Not after the Navy. Not after the battles I fought—overseas and in my own damn head.
But the Maas family gave me a second chance once, and this Christmas, I owe it to them to show my face at their bonfire. One night, I tell myself. In and out.
Then I meet her. Angel.
Too bright, too beautiful, too good for a man who’s been living in the dark for years.
She thinks I’m worth saving. I think she’s the kind of miracle I don’t deserve.
But the more time I spend with her under these Montana skies, the harder it is to remember all the reasons I swore I’d never stay.
This town, this ranch, this woman—they feel like home.
And for the first time in a long time, I’m starting to wonder if I’m ready to stop running… and fight for forever.

by Zoey Grant

Curvy Woman/Forced Proximity
This Christmas, the good girl is getting the naughty cowboy and his XXL candy cane.
Ginger
I’ve never been on the naughty list. Until I opened that package in front of half the town. My face went as red as that candy cane striped toy. Then the scandalous thing started buzzing.
I held my cool until the cowboy who ordered it started laughing. Now I have only one wish for this holiday season—to get revenge on Dallas Sullivan.
Dallas
I’ve never been on the nice list. And that’s definitely not changing this Christmas. When I saw the look on the buttoned-up party planner’s face, I started thinking dirty thoughts that put a lump of coal right in my pants.
Now, she’s sworn revenge on me and my rather large candy cane. But that’s okay because I plan to drag her onto the naughty list with me.
If you love a cowboy with a wicked sense of humor and a filthy mouth, spend this holiday season with Dallas from Her Candy Cane Cowboy. He’s extra naughty!

HER COWBOY CHRISTMAS
by Shaw Hart
Tropes: Enemies to Lovers/Alpha Hero
Protective Hero/Plus Size Heroine
Virgin Heroine/He Falls First/Found Family
She’s all rules and ledgers. He’s all grit and Stetsons. The only thing they agree on? They can’t stand each other.
Blair
I like my life in perfect order.
I go to work at the bank, home to my neat little house, and everything just the way it should be.
Then I meet Cole.
Rough edges. Infuriating smirk. A cowboy who doesn’t belong in my carefully balanced world.
But a mix-up at the bank and a little holiday magic throw us together, and suddenly, sparks are flying hotter than a crackling fire.
Now I can’t stop thinking about him, and I’m wondering if this Christmas, everything might change.
Cole
When I first met Blair, we got off on the wrong foot.
I thought that I could fix things with her, but it’s been months, and she seems determined to keep me at arm’s length.
Then the holiday festival is announced, and Blair is put in charge of the bank’s booth.
And she needs help.
When I find that out, I step up and offer her a hand.
Finally, my ice princess is starting to thaw, which is good, because I’m set on showing her that sometimes the best gifts aren’t wrapped under the tree.
They’re found standing right in front of you.
