Two lives cross in a fateful roadside encounter. When ranch life turns deadly, will their unexpected love survive?
Addie Malory is struggling to improve the rundown farm she bought. And though she knows she can’t do it alone, she won’t tolerate men who think they can just take advantage of a single woman. Worried all her hard work will amount to nothing, both her hopes and her heart lift when she hires a hunky capable ranch hand.
Cade Brody’s past has left him broken. Drifting between rodeos after a shocking betrayal, he’s grateful to the pretty farm girl and her offer of a job. But after thugs vandalize the property and harass his gorgeous new boss, he puts aside his wounded heart as his protective instincts ignite.
With Addie’s dream in danger under a barrage of financially damaging attacks, she wrestles with the risk of her red-hot feelings for her rugged employee. And when his own past returns to haunt him, Cade may have to choose between protecting the woman he loves and the healing reconciliation he’s wanted for years.

Excerpt
“No problem,” she said, dropping her gaze and working to get her galloping heart under control. His eyes mesmerized her, spoke to her without words, saying things she longed to hear, drowning her in desire.
Words pushed into his mouth. Sweet words, possessive words, words that would change his life and break his heart all over again. Three little words were ready to fall off his tongue, but fear and insecurity pushed them back down his throat.
Tall and lean, he wore cowboy boots and wranglers that fit just right.
He had that cowboy walk — loose and sinuous, but all powerful grace — that she’d always loved.
She smiled, hoping to alleviate his concern. Opening her mouth to speak, she prayed she didn’t sound as nervous as she felt. “You need a ride, Cowboy?”
“You need a ride, Cowboy?” she asked in that melodious voice that made every nerve in his body tingle with awareness.
It had been a long time since he touched a woman. That had to be the reason he was feeling so damned aware of this one…
…this attraction he’d been feeling from the minute he’d heard her voice and then met her eyes through the open window might be a problem.
His hands clenched and he pushed them into his pockets to keep them to himself. But his mind stampeded into dangerous territory, envisioning this cute bundle of beautiful wearing nothing but her devastating smile.
she couldn’t get her breath as she stared up at him, completely mesmerized, wondering if his lips were as firm and warm as they looked.
…their eyes locked and everything narrowed to just the two of them. That familiar tugging sensation inside her returned in spades and she was surprised not to see steam rising between them.
She had gotten under his skin, wiggled down deep, and made him itch in the most erotic ways.
She had fantasized about his mouth and how it would feel on hers. Would his kiss be soft and sweet, or would it be hard and possessive?
