My ex carved our initials into a tree. I came to return the favor… with a chainsaw.
I came to Ashwood Falls to chop down a tree, not to crash into a real-life mountain man with broody eyes and biceps carved by the gods.
After catching my fiancé playing tickle the pickle with another woman, I ditch my vacation plans and set out to destroy the one thing that still ties us together: the stupid tree where he carved our initials. Armed with a chainsaw and a bad attitude, I march into the Alaskan woods ready for revenge.
What I’m not ready for? Nearly slicing off my toe and getting rescued by a gruff, silent, gorgeous lumberjack who insists I wait out the blizzard in his remote cabin.
He’s a former Army Ranger who prefers trees to people. I’m a heartbroken woman with no clue how to start over, or how to stop staring at the man who’s helping me heal in ways I never expected.
We’re complete opposites. He’s got walls around his heart. I came here with a chainsaw.
But maybe some things are meant to be carved from second chances.
One night, two pink lines, and a grumpy lumberjack in flannel.
I came to Ashwood Falls to escape my Florida mess, not to fall for a bossy lumberjack in flannel.
Trace Masterson is grumpy, stubborn, and way too good at pushing my buttons. One tequila-fueled night was supposed to be fun. Temporary. Harmless.
Then two pink lines turned everything upside down.
Now I’ve got a baby on the way, a town full of nosy knitters, and a mountain man who refuses to let me bolt. Trace insists we’re in this together but, I’ve never been anyone’s forever, just their complication.
He says I’m his choice. His family. His home.
And against all odds, I’m starting to believe him.
If you love laugh-out-loud banter, flannel-clad heroes, surprise baby chaos, and small-town romance with a heart, you’ll fall hard for Pregnant in Plaid.
When viral humiliation sends influencer Piper Meadows fleeing to rural Alaska, the last thing she expects is a grumpy hockey captain with trust issues—or a fake relationship that just might save them both.
After her ex dumps her live on camera, Piper’s glittering online life implodes. Desperate for a fresh start, she lands in Ashwood Falls, Alaska—population: nosy. Between spotty Wi-Fi, over-involved neighbors, and one unforgettable incident involving a moose, anonymity isn’t exactly guaranteed.
Enter Ryder Lockwood: local hero, firefighter, and semi-pro hockey captain one scout’s call away from his big break. Problem is, his brooding personality isn’t exactly sponsor-friendly.
Their solution? Fake date for the cameras. Her image rebounds, his career looks golden… until the lines between performance and reality start to blur.
Between snowstorms, late-night fires, and stolen glances beneath the northern lights, Piper and Ryder find themselves in over their heads—and hearts.
Now they’ll have to decide what’s worth saving: their careers… or the real connection they never saw coming.
A small-town, grumpy/sunshine, sports romance about love, second chances, and finding something real in a filtered world.
Welcome to Ashwood Falls, Alaska—a rugged mountain town where the winters are brutal, the neighbors are nosy, and the men wear flannel like a second skin.
Women don’t come to Ashwood Falls looking for love. They come to escape—broken engagements, public humiliations, messy pasts, and lives that have completely gone off the rails. What they don’t expect is to find themselves face-to-face with the town’s most dangerous distraction: grumpy, broody mountain men who would rather chop wood, fight fires, or play hockey than talk about their feelings.
But when a revenge chainsaw mission turns into a blizzard-bound rescue, a tequila-fueled night leads to two pink lines, and a fake relationship with a hockey captain starts feeling a little too real… everything changes.
In Ashwood Falls, secrets don’t stay hidden for long. Not with the town’s army of knitters keeping watch, moose wandering through the streets, and neighbors who treat everyone’s love life like community entertainment.
These men are stubborn, protective, and fiercely loyal. The women who crash into their lives are strong, complicated, and determined not to fall again.
Too bad the mountains—and the men who live in them—have other plans.
Ashwood Falls is a laugh-out-loud small-town romance series packed with flannel-clad heroes, grumpy/sunshine chemistry, surprise babies, fake dating disasters, and heart-melting second chances—set beneath the northern lights where love has a way of finding you when you least expect it.
