Publisher's summary

A sassy redhead with an axe to grind…

After catching her husband kissing another woman in the barn, Loretta Sullivan Bailey left Lonesome Canyon Ranch and swore she’d never come back. But when her daughter threatens to drop out of college to become a rancher’s wife, Loretta refuses to let her baby make the same mistake she did. She returns to the ranch, determined to get her daughter back in school by the summer’s end…and resolute on ignoring her feelings for her ex-husband.

A bullheaded but oh so sexy cowboy…

A cowboy from his hat to his boots, ruggedly handsome rancher Jackson Bailey is none too pleased that his feisty - and gorgeous - ex-wife has suddenly shown up seventeen years after their divorce. But despite all their fighting and fussing, the two stubborn former lovers soon discover that old flames burn the hottest. Can they finally put aside their differences and find happiness together…forever?

Put on your boots, your going to need them! 🤣

The humor and the charming way Ms Brown writes keeps your interest so that you don't want to stop reading or listening to her books. This one is no exception. The characters are very relatable. It's very hard to say we're wrong some times, but this girl goes around and around to get there! lol. Loved it.

Wonderful just wonderful

Carolyn Brown’s audible books are so soothing to my soul. The narration is perfect. This is probably my 10th book and so happy she loves to write.

Love me some Texas

The friends and family in this story had me hooked from the beginning. Carolyn has a writing style that is unmatched so far that I have found. She makes the characters so real and relatable. I love the passion, the fire, and the conflict the characters hold.

Not Carolyn Brown’s usually writing.

I have enjoyed many of the authors books but I could not get into this book.....I’m not a prude but I did not see the necessity of all the cussing .....the story would have been ok without it. It demeaned the characters with all the cussing and drinking on every page.
