About this listen
Enjoy this steamy small-town mid-western romance series by USA Today best-selling and award-winning author Samantha Cole.
Don't Shoot the Messenger takes you on an emotional rollercoaster as three lives intertwine, bound by love, loss, and the power of forgiveness.
Blair's world shattered when she lost the love of her life, Grant. Left to raise their unborn child alone, she returns to her small hometown of Hazard Falls with a heavy heart. Little did she know that fate had a different plan in store for her.
Drake, Grant's brother, steps forward to offer a marriage of convenience, intending to be there for Blair and her baby. But what starts as a platonic transaction slowly transforms into an unbreakable bond as Drake and Blair fall in love. Together, they embrace the joy of parenthood and expand their family with two more children.
Grant's survival during six torturous years in a North Korean prison camp hinged solely on his unwavering love for Blair. In the wake of his rescue, the painful truth that she now belongs to his brother remains a reality Grant cannot bear to confront.
As danger looms over the ones he cherishes most, Grant must summon every ounce of courage and resilience to protect them. Will his return to Hazard Falls ignite a love triangle destined for heartbreak, or will Grant seize the opportunity to win Blair's heart once more, this time sharing her with his brother?
Don't Shoot the Messenger is the second book in the Hazard Falls series and a tale that will captivate your senses, leaving you craving for more. Fans of Annabella Stone and Vanessa Vale will love being immersed in a world of passion, secrets, and redemption, where love knows no boundaries. With a guaranteed happy ending, it does include strong language and hot, intimate scenes with an MFM menage relationship.

My new neighbor is a firefighter - and a scorching-hot single dad - but I swear I didn’t set off that smoke alarm on purpose. (And I was beyond mortified when he rushed in and saw me naked.) Nothing happened, of course - because I, Winnie MacAllister, romance junkie and owner of a constantly broken heart, have sworn off men for one solid year. Even protective men with chiseled jaws, bulging biceps, and deep brown eyes that make my breath come faster.

There wasn’t a lot that surprised me. My years in the Navy taught me a lot, my years hunting human traffickers taught me the rest. Meeting a beautiful woman in a bar and spending the night with her should’ve been a blip on my radar. Instead, I spent years trying to forget her. In the middle of a rescue operation, fate dropped her back into my life, but there was a twist—she wasn’t alone.

Fatefully, it’s with the new head chef at her sister’s restaurant: Enzo. A gentler man than the one she remembers, yet fire still burns. And a warning still lingers: don’t get too close.
