📖Book Info 

Publisher Description

She swore she’d never fall for him...but the super-hot cowboy is her new boss.

An enemies to lovers, close proximity, small town cowboy romance in the best-selling Wild Men series by USA Today bestselling author Melissa Belle.

I’m a cowboy through and through. My rodeo days may be over, but I live for the ranch.

I don’t have time for relationships. Or for romance.

Then she shows up in a torn wedding gown and covered in mud. She asks me for a few things that night, but the one I turn her down on is the one I can’t stop picturing.

Then she ends up working for me. And my simple cowboy life becomes sweet torture.

Can a runaway bride who pushes all my buttons have been the right woman all along?

💭Our Thoughts

"Desperate times call for... in my case, very stupid measures."

Imagine it's your wedding day 👰

The excitement, the anticipation

You are about to commit to the one man-made just for you, the man you will share your HEA with

Only right before the big moment, you find out you are not his one and only 😦

What's a girl to do?

Run

This had a few of my favorite tropes. All brought together in a heart-melting romance that was hard to put down.

There was the brooding cowboy with a painful past

The witty jilted bride running from more than just her wedding day

The ex who would make great pig feed - gave me a case of the icks

The mother who took patience

A past that needed to be reconciled

And a family that stood together through thick and thin

"The Truth," she says, "Is that all I keep wondering is: What's Luke Wild like in the dark?"

Love this line

This was a slow-burn, high-heat romance that truly leaves a mark on its reader.

I came into the series with Luke's book, but I will be going back to read the rest.

They are interconnected standalones
