One small town, four unlikely couples, and crackling chemistry that leaps off the page ... this hilarious and heartwarming collection of romantic comedies will have you laughing out loud, wiping away tears, and falling in love with each happily ever after!
Book One: The Mostly Real McCoy
When single-dad Mac meets down-on-her-luck Brooke, they agree to a one-month nanny arrangement with zero strings attached. That is until their undeniable attraction has them dreaming about second chances. But they’re both hiding secrets and protecting broken hearts. As their emotional connection deepens, how much will these two risk for a second chance at love?
Book Two: My Own Best Enemy
When one maid of honor and one best man get stuck planning their best friends’ wedding, their partnership heats up in ways they never expected. Emi has despised Nash her entire life, so why can’t she stop imagining his sizzling kisses now? And what if her worst enemy turns out to be the best thing that’s ever happened to her?
Book Three: Pretending I Love Lucy
When Fix Dodd’s grandmother hits him with a marriage ultimatum, he needs someone to pretend to be his temporary fiancée. Enter Lucy Devlin. She’s not only generous and gorgeous, she also needs cash. Fast. But as the expiration date on their fake engagement looms, they find themselves falling for real. They’re from two different worlds that are too far apart. Can love build a bridge in time?
Book Four: The Even Odder Couple
When two total opposites land at a workplace where romantic interaction is strictly forbidden, they're shocked to discover temptation popping up around every corner. Spencer protects Tess. Tess defends Spencer. But neither of these off-limits coworkers can afford to lose their jobs. So how much will these two sacrifice when their differences turn out to be everything the other one needs?

Basically, your own sweet reads buffet!
This was such a fun way to spend my weekend!! Really enjoyed each of the Apple Valley Love Stories. The series had single dads and independent women and opposites attract and… actually, it kinda had it all. It’s not often that I find a clean rom-com series that I can read my way through so quickly, and like each of them. Would recommend!

These stories are the best I'm have ever read. The fact there was no violence and only wonderful love stories was great. I am looking forward to reading more by Julie.

I enjoyed reading these stories. Witty writing and clever characters are Julie Christianson’s specialty! The chemistry between the characters is just the right amount of warmth for me (warm but clean). I love the endings and each story left me wanting to read the next!
