About this book

A single mom inherits a Wyoming ranch and finds herself living alongside the grumpiest math teacher in town—who also happens to be coaching her daughter's soccer team, making avoidance impossible! She's ready to prove she doesn't need rescuing (even if he keeps trying), but the more time they spend together, the more she realizes his crusty exterior is hiding someone worth thawing out. This charming small-town romance proves that sometimes the hero you don't think you need is exactly the one who'll change your life, and that fixing each other up might just be the best kind of love story.

sassytension-filledyearningplayfulsensual

Mix indie pop sass with sultry R&B tension—think witty banter meets slow-burn chemistry. Weave in country twang for Wyoming charm, upbeat feel-good tracks for single-mom resilience, and sensual slow jams for spicy tension. Moody acoustic moments when walls come down.
