What if you were part of the other family?
Max Stone is a glass-is-always-full kind of guy and he strongly believes in doing the right thing.
In this case, doing the right thing means traveling to Collier's Creek, Wyoming to meet the half-sister he’s never known and help save her family ranch.
He feels slightly aimless after selling his software company and retiring. He’s only forty-two after all, and after a lifetime of working hard, there's a bucket list of things he’d like to check off. One of them is meeting someone who likes him for who he is, not his bank account. He has a good feeling about Collier's Creek—he’s always had a secret cowboy fantasy.
What if you’d had a front-row seat to the havoc and destruction one man wreaked upon his family?
Nash Vigil isn’t rolling out the welcome mat for Max Stone. Stone wants something, and Nash is going to figure out what it is. Then he’s going to make sure Stone doesn’t get it. No doubt Max Stone is just like his cheating, lying father. If there’s one lesson Nash has learned in life it’s that the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree.
In town after another day fighting a losing battle at the ranch, Nash ends up helping a sexy newcomer who didn't realize that alcohol and high altitude don’t mix, not when you’re a newbie. And damn that had been hard to walk away from. As much as he’d wanted to accept the invitation for a hot night in the sheets, he’d tucked the man in and left.
Just Nash’s luck, he turns out to be the one man Nash cannot be attracted to.
Just Max’s luck, the mystery cowboy is the one man who doesn’t like him for who he is.
About the Author
Do you love inclusive, swoony, and often suspenseful small-town romances with complex characters and a unique sense of place? I do too! Yes, my characters start out broken, and maybe they’re still a tad banged up by the end, but they find the other half of their hearts and ALWAYS get their hard-won happily ever after.
In 2017 I pressed the publish button for the first time and never looked back—making this the longest period of time in my life I’ve stuck with a job. To date, there are over thirty Elle Keaton books available for you to read or listen to.
I love cats and dogs. Star Wars and Star Trek. Pineapple on pizza, and have a cribbage habit my husband encourages.
