A city girl fleeing an abusive marriage suddenly finds herself working on a cattle ranch with a
sexy but grumpy rancher as her boss in this spicy cowboy romance from the author of Seeing Red
and Change of Hart . He’s worried she won’t stay. She’s worried she will. City girl Cecily
Kennedy never expected to step foot on a cattle ranch but when her already strained marriage
takes a violent turn a kind friend offers her a job and refuge at Wells Ranch. Ranch life is
hard enough without her new boss Austin Wells sending mixed signals about whether he wants
her or hates her. But Cecily can’t risk getting involved with her grumpy yet alluring
employer—she has nowhere else to go and getting over her ex by getting under Austin isn’t
worth the potential fallout. As far as Austin’s concerned Cecily won’t be sticking around for
long. He’s learned the hard way that nobody ever stays and the indent on her ring finger makes
him certain the sexy city gal is no exception. But when Cecily’s troubled past threatens her
safe haven Austin realizes that somewhere between their trail rides and late night talks
she’s branded herself on his heart. He desperately wants her to stay and whether or not she
feels the same he’ll be damned if he lets anyone or anything hurt her under his watch. Don’t
