A rugged bachelor is up for charity auction in this special Valentine's Day romance from New
York Times bestselling author Jessica Clare. Jack Watson doesn't want anything to do with
the dating scene in Painted Barrel Wyoming but when his sister-in-law guilts him into joining
a bachelor auction Jack can't say no to a charity event. He's not totally heartless. And if
all the winner wants is an extra ranch hand for a few days he can do that. Of course Jack
changes his mind as soon as he meets the winner shy Layla. As the local accountant Layla
isn't used to being noticed by men. She's sure not the type to bid on a bachelor. But when she
tells her mom she’s bidding on someone she has a crush on—and her mom shows up to check—she has
no choice but to offer for the gruff cowboy. It's for a good cause after all… Neither one of
them thought the auction would be a success. But Layla finds it hard to keep her hands off the
cowboy and Jack falls for her sweet smile and wild sense of humor. True love should run
smoothly right? Except Layla's got a secret and Jack's right in the line of fire. Does she
risk everything for her Valentine cowboy or does she betray those closest to her?
