The Retreat
เจเจธ เจ-เจเจฟเจคเจพเจฌ เจฌเจพเจฐเฉ
Amanda Brooks canโt seem to find a job that suits her. Sheโs really hoping her new plan is a good one, because she needs something to keep her busy while her boyfriendโs gone.
Abigail Brooks is opening a new legal practice in the middle of nowhere, but sheโs positive she can make it work. With more flexible hours, sheโs finally prepared to settle herself and her family into their new life out West.
Donna Ellingsonโs brother may be a grade-A jerk, but sheโs grown a lot in the past year. Sheโs not afraid of a fight anymore, as long as sheโs on the right side.
But when a rival developer breaks ground on a retreat in nearby Flaming Gorge, he steals all of Amandaโs best contractors. Abbyโs nearly as frustrated when her big sister drops in, eager to โhelpโ as usual. And Donna discovers that sometimes no love life is better than too much. . .
Can these three friends-turned-family learn when to go all-in and when to let go before their various battles meet with unhappy endings?

Bridget loves her husband (every day) and all five of her kids (most days).ย
Sheโs a lawyer, but does as little legal work as possible. She has three quarter horse geldings, a Holsteiner (jumping) horse, and she spends too much time riding and not enough time writing. (Or too much time writing and not enough time riding, depending on your perspective!)
She has more chickens than sheโll admit to having, two lions head rabbits, a cat, two dogs (one bouncy and one yappy). She makes cookies waaaaay too often and believes they should be their own food group. In a (possibly misguided) attempt at balancing the scales, she kickboxes daily.ย
So if you donโt like her books, her kids, her horses, her chickens, or her cookies, maybe donโt tell her in person.
B.E. Baker is the romance/women's fiction penname for Bridget E. Baker, who also writes fantasy, end of the world, and dystopian books that add a little magic to the world.
