Making an offer on love
Troublemaker-turned-architect Gabe Matthews has an agenda—and a serious relationship is nowhere on it. To repay his mentor, he trades the big city for the rugged country so he can persuade the sexy cowgirl next door, Danica Brody, to sell the Lightning Creek Ranch.
Soon Gabe is pulling out all the stops to get close to Dani. But earning her trust complicates everything. He knows the last thing she needs is another run-in with deception, and the attraction he doesn’t see coming changes his every plan.
Welcome to Lightning Creek Ranch, nestled in the foothills of Montana’s majestic Bitterroot Mountains, home to the strong-willed Brody family. Life isn’t always easy on the Lightning Creek, but challenges are nothing new to the men and women who live and work here.
And there’s something about the ranch, something in the beauty and solitude that works a kind of magic on those in need of a second shot at life...
More often than not, when I start tossing around ideas for a book, the hero comes to me first. He’s a guy with a problem, and after I coax him into the story, it’s my job to make things get worse before they get better. Gabe Matthews, the hero of To Tempt a Cowgirl, didn’t fit the mold. He had a problem—a chaotic childhood and a serious brush with the law—but that’s been taken care of, and now he’s successful and happy. How am I supposed to work with a hero like that?
I need to give him a new problem.
Gabe goes to Montana to help procure the Lightning Creek Ranch in a quiet private sale as a favor to the man who helped him get his life back on track. His plan is to get to know the owner, then broach the matter of a sale. He’s good at what he does and he fully expects to succeed in his mission. What he doesn’t expect is to fall for the owner of the property.
Dani Brody, owner of the Lightning Creek Ranch, has trust issues. She’s been betrayed by her fiancé and has no intention of getting involved with another guy anytime soon...although her new neighbor is proving to be a bit of a temptation. The closer she and Gabe get, the more she thinks he might be a guy worth taking a chance on. And then she discovers the real reason he came to Montana.
Gabe has a problem.
I hope you enjoy reading Dani and Gabe’s story. I made them work for their happy ending, but they’re better off because of it.
Happy reading!
