Book Description

I accidentally started a feud with the hottest cowboy in Wyoming. Now I work for him.

I came to Whiskey Ridge to escape my pre-midlife crisis and cheating ex. Instead, I got chased by a runaway goose. Publicly humiliated at the town rodeo. And hired by a millionaire cowboy who looks like every bad decision I’ve ever made wrapped in denim.

Rhett Walker is six-foot-three of pure irritation. He hates my city-girl ideas. I hate his bossy attitude. And somehow we’re now working together twelve hours a day.

Which would be manageable if he weren’t constantly staring at me like he’s deciding whether to kiss me or throw me off his ranch. And if I weren’t hiding a secret that would make him hate me forever.

Turns out surviving a cheating ex, a runaway goose, and the town rodeo was the easy part. Surviving my gorgeous cowboy boss? That’s where things get complicated.

A full-length stand-alone. Perfect for fans of grumpy/sunshine romance, small-town billionaires, big personality heroines, meddling townspeople, and guaranteed HEAs.

About the Author

Lacey Monroe

Lacey Monroe

Lacey Monroe writes steamy romantic comedies for women who know that life doesn’t end at thirty-nine. She believes forty is just the beginning of the good stuff — and her heroines prove it, one impossibly attractive man at a time. Forty & Wrangled is her most personal book yet — written, produced, and brought to life entirely through direct reader support. No publisher. No middleman. Just Lacey and the readers who make it possible.
