Bull Rush: A Dark Western Romance (The Quiet Horsemen, Book 1)

About this book

Hazel Rawdon’s life is perfectly planned, right up until the moment she discovers she is still legally married to Ramsey Stockton. Years after the former pro football star turned felon abandoned their small town—and her—he returns with a proposition that feels like a deal with the devil. To secure the divorce she desperately craves and save the ranch housing her struggling inn, Hazel must play the role of his devoted wife for ninety days. The stakes are personal and professional: if she agrees, Ramsey provides a life-changing financial bonus; if she refuses, she risks losing everything she has built. Caught in a complicated web of lingering resentment and undeniable chemistry, Hazel finds herself trapped in a high-stakes game of pretend. Although she is currently engaged to another man, the pull toward her ex-husband remains a dangerous weakness. Utilizing the forced proximity and second-chance romance tropes, *Bull Rush* explores the volatile tension between two people who know each other’s deepest secrets. As Ramsey’s dangerous family legacy begins to encroach on their arrangement, Hazel realizes that the Stockton men are relentless in their pursuit of what they want. With her future hanging in the balance, she must decide if the past is worth repeating.
