The Five Oaks Ranch series was thought of as Stephanie Hurt the author rode home from a family vacation with family. She spent a month putting together character sketches and covers before she started the first book in the series, Ridge. It was released on February 14th this year with a big release day signing event at a local bookstore.

The series will be six books: Ridge, Oakley, Chase, Luke, Maggie and a Christmas book that will be announced later in the year.

Each book is about one of the Cauthen siblings. They have their own personalities which can bring about humorous sibling arguments and loads of adventures. It's a close knit family and when one hurts, they all hurt. You'll love the heartwarming romance that comes with each book.
