Ryker Falls Series, Books 1-3 by Lani Blake

SOMEBODY TO LOVE (Book 1)

 When Joe's childhood friend, Bailey Jones, returns to Ryker Falls, his life suddenly shifts from settled to off-center. Once they'd been closer than anyone ever guessed; now, they're chilly strangers. But Joe's not letting his stubborn, sexy-as-hell ex-best friend stay closed off. He lost her once through his own stupidity; this time he's never letting her go. Joe knows he doesn't deserve a second chance, but he's never played by the rules before, so he's not starting now. Game on.

Tropes: Childhood friends turned lovers, found family, second chance, small town, slow burn

 FROM THIS MOMENT (Book 2)

Dylan Howard swore he'd left Ryker Falls behind, but the minute he returns, his past crashes into him. An FBI profiler used to facing the darkest parts of humanity, he isn't prepared for the sisters he barely knows—or for Piper Trainer, the sharp-tongued brunette who sees right through his cold exterior. When someone from Dylan's past comes calling, it threatens not just the fragile ties he's building with his family—but the unexpected love growing between him and Piper.

Tropes: Enemies turned lovers, disapproving parents, small town, misunderstandings leading to conflict, single mom, romantic suspense

 LOVE ME TENDER (Book 3)

Jack doesn't rescue people—especially not Haldanes, his towns sworn enemy. But something about Rory sinks under his skin, and the more the town turns on her, and the threats escalate, the harder he fights to keep her safe.

Tropes: Enemies turned lovers, Fish out of water, Heroine in danger, Small town, Holiday romance
