WELCOME TO BLUE RIVER RANCH . . .

Wilder
My brother is out of commission, so I'm left running our ranch on my own all summer. Or at least I was until my best friend proposed hiring his wild-child sister from the East Coast.

It seems perfect . . . until her first day.

Because the Rose I once knew is all grown up. Petite, mouthy . . . with sinful emerald eyes that don't cower at my scowls. She knocks the breath right out of me. And not just because she keeps crashing into me at work.

But there's more to this spitfire than she's seen for. And I want it all.

Rose
This summer is a chance to slow down, breathe, reset . . . and let go of a past that follows me like a shadow.

Instead, I get a grumpy boss with buttons too easy to press.

He thinks I like getting into trouble. He's addicted to saving me. And the more he does, the easier it is to trust him-with every part of me.

But his own heart is locked up tight.

I only have a few weeks left. Will they be enough for him to ask me to stay?
