About this listen
Pretend engagement, hidden sanctuary—where secrets and hope collide
Inspired by their stepfather’s legacy of paying it forward, Aiden Skye and his brothers bought Heart Falls Animal Rescue with a hidden agenda. More than a shelter for animals, it’ll be a refuge—a secret haven for people needing a place to hide and rebuild their lives. Aiden is determined to make High Water a success.
Petra Sorenson is looking for a new beginning in a place that already feels like home. With friends in Heart Falls ready to support her, an IT job waiting at her brother’s ranch, and some secret vigilante hacking on the side, she hopes a fresh start will heal her trampled heart.
Neither Aiden nor Petra expected their paths to cross again. Their fiery one-night stand years ago was supposed to stay in the past. But when they have to pretend to be engaged to protect a young woman, their lives begin to tangle.
Living together while building a secret safe house is complicated. Their attraction is undeniable, but adding real emotions to lies is messy.
But a little pretending never hurt anyone...right?

Story
When introverted cartoonist Remi Stephenson dumps her cheating ex and goes on their Hawaiian vacation solo, even her creative mind can’t imagine being purposely stranded in the ocean…with a handsome, muscular, brave Navy SEAL. Even more unbelievable is the spark between them. Surely this is just rebound hormones. Right? Because who finds their soulmate in the middle of a life-or-death situation? And what would a SEAL want with a curvy, nerdy artist, anyway? Of course, none of those doubts stop Remi and Vincent from making plans to get together back in California, even before they’re rescued.

Gemma Newhouse is the daughter of the richest man in America, and from the abrasions on her wrists and her drugged state, she’s on the run from someone dangerous.

Story
I’ve been in love with Bridger Blackwell for as long as I can remember. He’s a smoke show, kind, and gives the best hugs in the world. But best of all? He’s everything my sorry excuse for a father wasn’t. Now, I’m back in Bitterroot Valley, living across the street from Bridger and his adorable daughter. It doesn’t take long for all those old feelings to come rushing back, and every cell in my body knows that I belong with them. That they’re mine. Bridger’s arms are where I feel safest. They feel like home. I’m growing to depend on him, to truly love him and his daughter.

The Skye brothers have come to Heart Falls to build a refuge for people in need, specifically minors in need of a safe haven. Declan, Aiden and Jake all want to make their stepfather proud and do as they were taught by him and pay it forward. They were lucky when he joined their family and raised them after their mother passed away.
Petra has come to Heart Falls to start over. After a breakup, she just needs a fresh start. Since her brother has settled in the town, she decides to join his company in a place that will give her what she needs, a new beginning.
But when Petra makes a delivery to High Water for Tansy, she never expects to run into the one person she thought she would never see again.
Aiden, too, is shocked to see Petra again. When the social worker the brothers have been working with, shows up to see if they are ready for their first resident, the one thing they are Amissing is the one thing Petra can help them with.
You see they need to have a female on staff, but they have yet to hire a housekeeper. So Aiden, in his infinite wisdom, tells Danielle, the social worker, that Petra is his fiance. Add another shock to the plate.
But when the brothers explain the situation, Petra loves what they are trying to do and agrees to play Aiden's fiance. But for how long?
When Jennifer, aka Jinx, arrives at the ranch, she is skittish. When her and Petra talk, the one thing she says is that "as long as no one is trying to hurt her or get in her panties, she's good" with the brothers. That quote really caught my attention. What must this girl have gone through?
Slowly, Petra, Aiden and Jinx build a relationship. That is until the night Jinx overhears a conversation that was not meant for anyone to hear. Sadly, she also did not hear the entire conversation. So she takes something that is said and blows it out of context.
Will Aiden and Petra find out that she has heard part of their conversation? Will they be able to explain their intent and how what she missed hearing is more important than what she heard? Will they end up making themselves a permanent family? Or will Jinx's misunderstanding cause her to run from them?
I love what these brothers are trying to do with High Water. Both for the people in need, as well as the animals in need. They really have expanded on the animal rescue concept. I know they will succeed, but they will have challenges, and probably some setbacks.
I think Jinx is a good first resident to have. She needs someone to be her person and that seems to be Petra. On top of that, the brothers are all enamored with her like a little sister. I love that she wants to learn to play a musical instrument like the brothers do. It seems like she really likes where she has landed. She feels safe for the first time in a long time.
We see the return of Tatiana Sokolov to narrate this book. She always bring new life to her characters. In this case, she shows us the compassion of the brothers and Petra, as well as the skittishness of Jinx.

Aiden and his brothers are on a noble mission to make the world a better place one rescued person or animal at a time. Even thrown for a loop, I love how Petra roles with the punches publicly.
When it comes to Jinx, I can't stress enough how much I love what they do, how they approach each challenge, roadblock, or setback, and the little things they put in place to make her feel welcomed and safe. Not all care situations are created equal, but what they do to right the wrongs is amazing. Absolutely amazing. 🫂
I can't wait to see what comes next for Jake and his opposites attract book. It's cooking up to be quite the ride from what I've seen so far. 😂🤠
I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrator is Tatiana Sokolov. I've listened to and enjoyed numerous books she's narrated. Her quality is consistent, and she's easy to listen to. 🎧🩵🎧
