The Barefoot Billionaire
From bestselling author Catherine Burr comes a sparkling Lake Tahoe romance about reinvention, unexpected attraction, and discovering that the life you dreamed of may not be the one your heart truly wants.
Emily Harper is a successful romance writer who secretly feels stuck inside her own life story. Burned out from deadlines, emotionally exhausted, and desperate for a reset, she escapes to Lake Tahoe hoping for peace, inspiration, and a break from the pressure of always pretending to have life figured out.
Instead, she finds herself tangled in the orbit of two very different men.
Cole Stone is the mysterious barefoot billionaire who arrives at lakeside gatherings on a weathered wooden raft, avoiding the polished image the business world expects from him. Wealthy, private, and quietly restless, Cole has spent years building an empire that no longer feels like home.
Working beside him is Luke Bennett, Cole's loyal chef and longtime employee. Warm, grounded, and effortlessly charming, Luke understands Tahoe, simple living, and people in a way money never could.
Meanwhile, Emily's best friend Serena, a witty substitute teacher with a talent for reading people, unexpectedly forms a deeply personal friendship with Cole that slowly begins changing both of their lives.
As summer unfolds along the sparkling shores of Lake Tahoe, friendships deepen, hearts shift, and Emily begins questioning everything she thought she wanted.
Because sometimes love doesn't arrive wrapped in perfection.
Sometimes it appears barefoot on a raft beneath the pines.
Filled with lakeside charm, emotional tension, billionaire intrigue, humor, friendship, found family, and unforgettable Tahoe atmosphere, The Barefoot Billionaire is the first novel in Catherine Burr's Tahoe Shores Series.
