About this listen
It’s the classic story—girl returns to her hometown only to end up moving in with her high school crush, who she hates.
Returning to Willowbrook was my only option after Chicago chewed me up and spit me out. Technically, it wasn’t Chicago’s fault. It was his fault—the man I thought I knew who turned out to be a liar.
My older sister, always the one to swoop in and fix things, secured me a job as a yoga instructor on her fiancé’s family ranch. As my self-assigned protector, she’s keeping one eye on me and one eye on Emmett Noughton, her fiancé’s brother.
He’s the charming, fun-loving, take-life-as-it-comes kind of guy, and once upon a time, his name was scribbled in my notebooks. Back then, I was invisible to him. Now, he’s looking at me like I’m the only thing in the room. But he lost his chance with me a long time ago.
It’s easy to keep him at arm’s length and nurse the grudge I’ve held onto for years. Until the house I’m staying in sells, and I have nowhere to go except his house. Now, resisting him isn’t just difficult—it’s impossible.

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

For a long time now, I’ve despised Weston Shaw. He’d been someone I’d admired, taking my favorite football team, the Colorado Mustangs, to the Super Bowl. But that all turned upside down after one night that had nothing to do with me. We share one undeniable connection: his son, Caleb. Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

Story
Still married. Those words change everything. Now my should-be ex-husband, Ramsey Stockton, the former pro football star turned felon and hero who left this town—and me—behind years ago, is at my door offering me a deal with the devil. If I let him stay and play his wife again for ninety days, he’ll give me a quiet divorce and his family ranch—the one my inn is on. When I scoff at the idea, he offers a million-dollar bonus to help my business float through this rough patch, but only if I’m his.

One letter changed my life. One night with him might change my forever. Inheriting a beach house in a small town you've never heard of is less than ideal. Falling for the broody bar owner who hates me because he wants the house? Even worse. I came to Carrington Cove for one reason: to renovate the home I knew nothing about, sell it, and get back to my life in D.C. and my multi-million dollar business. There was nothing on the agenda about falling for Dallas, the sexy former Marine who chastises me about my manners and withholds how to fend off the murderous geese on my property.

Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

With perfectly messy dark hair and smoldering blue eyes—and don’t even get me started on the way that black tee stretches across his toned chest… He’s my brother’s best friend. He’s also a football star on track to win the first wide-receiver MVP in league history. Good thing I only date golfers… or I did.

It’s not a new story. Wife finds out husband’s been cheating on her, and she packs up her four kids and heads back to her hometown of Sunrise Bay, Alaska. Yeah, not a fresh start, but thousands of miles away from my ex will do just fine. I’m prepared for the cold weather, the early snowfalls, and dark days and nights. What I’m not prepared for is coming face-to-face with my ex’s cousin, and for the same feelings from 20 years ago to ignite like the flame never went out.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

I’ve slapped my cuffs on Luna Lancaster too many times to count and not a single one was for fun. As the sheriff of Starlight Cove, I shouldn't crave her, but I do. She’s chaos, mayhem, and sunshine wrapped up in too-tight yoga pants. The lawbreaker might have the town enamored with her free spirit, but she’s a thorn in my side, even if she is the sexiest woman I've ever seen. I want her out of my town and out of my head. Trouble is, she's made it perfectly clear she's not going anywhere.

Never date your (sexy-as-hell) next-door neighbor. File that under great advice - not taken. Especially if he’s hot. And witty. And successful. Did I mention hot? Never mind. The point’s the same. I moved to Wildrose Landing because my life was a structure-fire burning down around me. They say a phoenix rises from the ashes, new. I crossed my fingers and took a leap of faith, hoping that proved true.

Never date your (sexy-as-hell) next-door neighbor. File that under great advice - not taken. Especially if he’s hot. And witty. And successful. Did I mention hot? Never mind. The point’s the same. I moved to Wildrose Landing because my life was a structure-fire burning down around me. They say a phoenix rises from the ashes, new. I crossed my fingers and took a leap of faith, hoping that proved true.

Story
I’m head over heels in love with my best friend. Although, I can’t pinpoint exactly when Reeve Lancaster became my entire world. Was it when we were little kids, practically brought up together, after Reeve’s mom died during childbirth and his dad subsequently fell apart? Or when I doodled his name in my school journal at age 10? Maybe it was when we became boyfriend and girlfriend at 14 or when we shed our virginity at 16, pledging our forever?

It all started with an anonymous letter. He wasn’t supposed to find it - no one was. And he definitely wasn’t supposed to answer it. We end up talking through letters and sticky notes in a book. All baring our darkest, deepest secrets. It’s all fun and games until I find out who my pen pal is...Xavier Emery. King of my basketball-obsessed town, my childhood bully, and the guy I am in grave danger of falling in love with. But the rules were clear: We can never know who we’re talking to, and the confessions can never, ever get out.

Story
If Renn Brewer would’ve asked me to marry him, I would’ve said no. Why? One, his reputation precedes him. His name is in the headlines at least once a month. Two, he’s not just my brother’s best friend. They’re teammates. And three, I’m in my self-care era. Unfortunately, a version of me equates self-care with bad choices.

I swore off anyone remotely like my ex. On the top of that list? Attorneys. Everyone knows they can't be trusted. Now that I've moved back into my childhood home in Chicago, my focus is my daughter, my mom, and me. Then I see Reed Warner again. I push him away, but somehow he weasels his way into every part of my life, not willing to take "No" for an answer. In spite of my better judgment, I can't stop thinking about the way his designer suits fit his muscular frame. The problem? Not only is he a lawyer...he was the best man at my wedding.

It’s not a new story. Wife finds out husband’s been cheating on her, and she packs up her four kids and heads back to her hometown of Sunrise Bay, Alaska. Yeah, not a fresh start, but thousands of miles away from my ex will do just fine. I’m prepared for the cold weather, the early snowfalls, and dark days and nights. What I’m not prepared for is coming face-to-face with my ex’s cousin, and for the same feelings from 20 years ago to ignite like the flame never went out.

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

Story
She’s in the wrong place at the right time...Gunshots echo, reverberating through me, allowing me to feel something...anything other than the pain that consumes me. That should be a warning to stay away, but for some reason, she comes closer. Intruding on my silence. Sharing my darkness. Close enough for me to see the look in her eyes. It’s not fear, but desire that darkens her eyes in the moonlight. She should run. Run far away from me, but she never does. She comes close enough to touch, tempting the devil inside that wants to cause devastation for the loss I’ve suffered.

Knox Holland is in a jam. After an incredible first year on the pro motocross circuit, he should be on top of the world. Instead, his bad reputation has landed him without a team. He's untouchable and desperate to turn it around. Which is how he ends up at my gym asking me to train him. As a college gymnast with two Olympic medals to my name, I know a thing or two about the pressure to succeed. Last season I choked and then injured myself before I could show the world that I'm not a twenty-year-old has-been.

5 "The One I Didn’t See Coming" ⭐ - a must-listen!
After a string of dark romances and a bit of a book slump, I found the perfect antidote in Piper Rayne’s The One I Didn’t See Coming. This spicy, small-town romance is an absolute palate cleanser, brimming with charm and warmth. For audiobook enthusiasts, it’s a must-listen—veteran narrators Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson bring the story to vibrant life with their captivating performances.
The One I Didn’t See Coming by Piper Rayne is the third installment in the Plain Daisy Ranch series, and here, readers return to the charming world of Willowbrook, Nebraska. This time, the spotlight is on Emmett Noughton, the youngest Noughton brother, whose innovative ideas for the family ranch are often overlooked or ignored. Known for his carefree attitude and reputation with women, Emmett struggles to be taken seriously until Briar returns from a life in the city.
Briar, who once had a high school crush on Emmett, finds herself reluctantly moving into his home when her initial living arrangements fall through. Despite her resistance and their rocky start, Emmett's genuine support and their undeniable chemistry lead to a surprising and heartwarming connection. As Briar's hidden secrets come to light and Emmett faces challenges with his family, their evolving relationship becomes a source of comfort and growth for both.
I haven’t had the pleasure of reading the ebook yet—but fear not, I’ve already purchased it and plan to dive in momentarily.😉 The audiobook, however, was outstanding. Narrators Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson did a fantastic job of bringing Emmett and Briar to life. Their vivid portrayals captured the emotional depth and witty banter between the characters beautifully. Jason and Ava are among my favorite audiobook narrators, so my anticipation for their performance was sky-high. (I might have a bit of a Jason Clarke addiction, but that’s neither here nor there. His voice perfectly complements one of Piper Rayne’s heroes!) With the help of their engaging storytelling and dynamic performances, Piper Rayne delivers another delightful and poignant addition to the series. I’m eagerly anticipating the next book. Don’t miss out on this feel-good gem that’s sure to leave you smiling!

Gamechanger
⭐️ALC REVIEW⭐️
The One I didnt See Coming
5 ⭐ / 3🔥🌶
“You're my gamechanger”
This is my second book by Piper Rayne and the third in her Plain Daisy Ranch Series. I absolutely loved this story. I loved the characters and how they overcome feeling like the disappointments and standing up to those they love. The story of will they or won’t they. They’ve been told to not go there, they know they shouldn’t but when everyone is set on keeping them apart they end up coming together in the most beautiful way.
Emmett is the youngest of the Noughton brothers, and he feels like no one takes him seriously. But how can they when growing up he was the one to always crack a joke when things got too serious or to hide his pain. He was a hotshot with the girls, but now that his brother’s have found their happily ever after he can’t help but feel like he’s missing something.
Briar is returning to her hometown, to the Ranch where her high school crush lives. She has nowhere to go and is carrying a secret she wants to keep a little while longer from her older sister. But when she needs a place to stay and her high school crush is her only comfortable option, and the only one who knows her secret. She’s forced to face some tough decisions and fight the charm / soft side the former playboy only has for her.
Together they work to help overcome the feeling of not being good enough and letting everyone down. Together they build each other up and make each other stronger. They start out as enemies, become friends and eventually lovers.
I had the privilege of reading the ARC by @authorpiperrayne and listening to the ALC narrated by @jasonclarkereads & @avaundercover.
The Narration and production of the audiobook was fantastic. @jasonclarkereads & @avaundercover do an amazing job of expressing the angst, the love, the lust, the spice and everything nice that is this small town romance. They are exactly what I pictured the characters to sound like when reading the book!
I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed this book and highly recommend you download it for reading or listening TODAY. Available on Kindle and Audible.

This was cute. Minimal conflict. Great communication. I enjoyed. Can’t say that I’ll continue the series though.
