Series background & context
Dare Valley Meets Paris is a compact, four-part mini-series that forms a bridge between Ava Miles’s Colorado universe and the City of Light. Each novella follows the same central couple, billionaire inventor Evan Michaels and small-town baker Margie Lancaster, as their love story bounces between Dare Valley and Paris.
When the series opens in The Billionaire's Gamble, Evan loses a friendly bet and is forced to live like an ordinary man in Dare Valley for a month, no private jets, no staff, no flashy toys. He plans to ride out the humiliation quietly, but Margie, with her pink bakery and generous heart, makes anonymity impossible.
As the installments move to Paris in The Billionaire's Secret and The Billionaire's Courtship, readers see Evan in his natural environment, a world of cutting-edge inventions and elegant apartments. Margie arrives to study pastry, unaware of the full story behind his wealth or the wager that first sent him to Colorado. Their romance plays out against cobbled streets, patisseries, and river walks, blending fairy-tale escapism with real questions about trust and power.
By the time The Billionaire's Return brings them back to Dare Valley, the question is no longer whether they belong together but what kind of life they can build that honors both of their dreams.
These novellas are lighter and more episodic than the full-length Dare Valley and Dare River novels, making them easy to binge in order or enjoy as a collected edition. At the same time, they thread familiar side characters through the pages and touch on the generosity and community spirit that run through the larger series. If you like billionaire romances with genuine warmth and a strong sense of place, this little cluster of stories adds a fun, glamorous detour to the Dare universe.
