Laramie Briscoe

I’m old enough to be her father, and a life-long confirmed bachelor, but after one night together, all that is about to change. 

Boone Wilson

Instead of building my forever with a conventional family, I’ve dedicated my life to being the best father I can to the son I had way too early in life. Now that he’s grown, I’m giving all I can to my job. I make a construction site run smoothly, and can build anything with a couple pieces of wood and my imagination.

My world is small and calm. That’s how I like it. Until Alexis Monroe barrels her way into my peaceful existence and turns my world upside down.

The Broken Falls Series

When I left Broken Falls at eighteen, I'd barely had a drink, and the thought of hitting the bar felt as foreign as landing on another planet. But tonight at Monroe's, it's as if the universe aligned to create the perfect girls' night out. Laughter echoes around us as I sit with Kara, Alexis, and Daisy, munching on peanuts and swapping stories about how the town has morphed since I last lived here.


The camaraderie wraps around us like a cozy blanket, and somewhere between the shared memories and outrageous stories, Alexis leans in with a mysterious smile. "Okay, everyone, I've got news," she announces, her voice brimming with excitement. We all lean closer, glancing around, I wonder if everyone knows what's going to be said because there's barely visible smiles on the faces around me. "Boone and I are having a baby. I'm pregnant!"
