Dirty Dancing at Devil's Leap: A Hellcat Canyon Novel

One of Amazon's Best Romances of September

A 2017 RT Reviewer's Choice Nominee for Best Book of the Year and Reviewer's Choice Nominee for Best Contemporary Love and Laughter

She was a naive country girl. He was a billionaire's spoiled son. He was her first crush, her first heartbreak...and now her sworn enemy.

As Avalon Harwood's fortunes soared, Maximilian “Mac” Coltrane's plummeted, and he had to fight his way back to where they both began: Hellcat Canyon. Now Mac and Avalon will play dirty—in more ways than one—to get what they each want: the glorious old abandoned Coltrane mansion. But when Avalon snaps the house up at auction, she discovers there's something awfully familiar about the extremely hot caretaker...

Mac might have a heart of stone, and the abs to match, but Avalon—the dazzling girl whose heart was always too big and too reckless for her own good—was always his Kryptonite. And just like that, the stakes change: suddenly they're fighting not just for a house, but for a magic they tasted only once before and never since—long ago, with each other, at Devil's Leap.

“Julie Anne Long’s books are sexy and adorable!”

“Cheeky repartee, liquid imagery, and quiet reflection on roads not taken show the author’s expanding stylistic palette. For fans of Americana romance and Susan Elizabeth Phillips and those who root for the healing of a bruised heart” - Kirkus Reviews

“An entertaining romance that adds new dimension to this engaging series.” - Library Journal

“Flawlessly executed, DIRTY DANCING AT DEVIL’S LEAP is easily the most romantic read of the summer.” - RT Book Reviews, 5 Stars

“Long’s playful third visit to Hellcat Canyon [is] the best of the series... [an] uproarious pranking competition fuels mutual attraction, rekindles lustful romance, and brings old issues into perspective... Sparkling banter, appearances of adorable children and animals, and moments of charming hilarity will gratify both new and returning readers.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
