The Collection includes books 5-8 in the best-selling Castle Mountain Lodge Series. It includes love stories and happy ever afters set in the stunning Canadian Rockies!

Secret Gifts (Book 5)

For blockbuster star, Gage, Castle Mountain Lodge is the perfect place for him to hide out and stay out of trouble. At least that's what his PR rep Megan hopes. But staying out of trouble proves to be harder then either of them thought, especially when the temptation is each other.

Goodbye Gifts (Book 6)

Carmen has dedicated her career to making sure the Lodge runs smoothly, which is why when her boss asks her to date his brother, she reluctantly accepts. What she doesn't expect is to fall in love with Dylan, and sometimes, falling in love means saying goodbye.

Tempting Gifts (Book 7)

Lisa’s tired of her reputation as the Lodge’s ‘bad girl’. She’s ready to get serious—about everything. Which is why she wants nothing to do with Jason, who only seems interested in flirting. But when their mutual concern over a little boy shows them what’s really important, anything can happen.

Holiday Gifts (Book 8)

Ryan is surrounded by couples falling in love at the Lodge, but he’s convinced it will never happen to him. That is, until he meets single mom, Julie. Julie’s daughter is determined to show her mom that love is possible, especially with a little festive help.'

3 shorter stories

Good stories, but they seemed to end quickly. The resolutions seemed a little too easy. That being said, this is a good series to read if you want a quick escape. They are good fun to read and it was interesting to see the troublemaker become the heroine in a later book! Not what you usually see! Get this collection for the savings and for some good fun reading.

Thoroughly Engaging

This collection of stories surprised me. Set in a mountain resort, they combine a beautiful, well-drawn setting, well-rounded and likeable characters, and interesting plots with twists and unexpected turns. There is plenty of romance and emotion, too, with an amount of passion putting these squarely in the "sweet romance" genre without being saccharine. Very well done.

Megan and Gage

Secret Gifts
The day after Megan broke up with her boss's son she was sent to keep an eye on their hard partying client. This wasn't the type of job she had done for the PR firm but she felt she had no choice. Gage knew he wasn't the person he had been living but didn't know how to change.
Goodbye gifts
Megan's boss knew she never mixed business with pleasure. For this reason he thought she could be a diversion for Dylan. The possibility of a promotion made her say yes. But regret made her cancel the deal. She should have told Dylan before Trent half good the story.
Tempting gifts
Jason thought she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Lisa thought he was wonderfully handsome. They both had previous loves to work their way past

Super

Loved the interactions between characters and pulling the series together by keeping character from earlier stories in the mix. Wonderful portrayal of people finding the magic of love as they make changes and live their lives. Well done.

Really cute collection of stories!

Sweet she with no sex or cussing. The only problem was each story was left feeling like the ending wasn't finished. Guess you have to read the other books to feel like you actually finished them. Nice storyline though.

Light romance

The stories are rather formulaic and lack depth. Characters know right away they are attracted and fall in love without details of really talking or getting to know each other. The setting is wonderful. So light, quick reading.

Good till they werent

Great love stories well developed life like characters, but endings so abrupt that it ruins the story. If you are going to write a story with good characters, give them the ending they deserve.

Great Set of Books

Love seems to hit when people come to stay at the Lodge. It's a place for families, coupled and singles. But it was wonderfully written.

it was okay, the first book in the series was good, the rest seemed kind of rushed. I just like to read the whole series when I start one.

I don't know, but my edition is from book 4 to 6

#4 Secret Gifts

He fell into stardom, and it went to his head. Off course the press had a field day, at his expense.
She was brought in to curtail any further fallout, but she may also may have been the cause of further mayhem.

#5 Goodbye Gifts

Carmen has been an integral part of the Castle Mountain Lodge, assisting to tie every part of the stories together.
She comes across as a very caring and sensitive person. So this is her journey to find love.
It's really is a wonderful tale.

#6 Tempting Gifts

Lisa had flirted once too often, and now was on a short leash, as far as her employment went.
So, when an incredibly hunkie man walked into the child care facility, where she worked, and started to flirt with her, she tried to shut it down quickly. However, mixed messages were given, and then her supervisor picked up on the tension.
Again, mixed messages, which seemed a theme, throughout this episode.
Don't worry though, the Mountain magic still worked.

#7 Holiday Gifts

He was the new customer liaison officer, she had a craft event happening. One glance and the magic was happening.
