Desire at Dino Rift
When Claire Whitaker comes back to the Smoky Mountains after ten years away, she isn't looking for romance. She's looking for closure. For proof that the girl she used to be still exists somewhere beneath the scars, the secrets, and the life she barely survived.
What she finds instead is Dino Rift-a gloriously unhinged roadside dinosaur park where animatronics creak, chosen family thrives, and Luke Barrett still fixes broken things with steady hands and quiet devotion.
Luke never stopped loving Claire. He just learned how to live without her. Now she's back-wiser, rougher, and carrying a past that doesn't stay buried. As old feelings reignite, a new threat follows her into town, forcing them to choose between running again or standing together in the open.
Set against neon dinosaurs, late-night bonfires, and a town that knows how to protect its own, Desire at Dino Rift is a steamy, emotionally grounded romance about second chances, found family, and the radical act of being seen exactly as you are.
Sometimes love doesn't come quietly.
Sometimes it roars.
