Carla Duvall never planned on inheriting her families farm, or the loneliness that came with it. Her days are filled with milking cows, caring for chickens, fixing fences, and pretending she doesn't hear the gossip that follows her wherever she goes. Then Rowan Maddox drives back into town -- the milkman with a reputation for never staying put. He's charming, infuriatingly kind, and far too familiar. Once, years ago, they'd been inseparable, until one kiss got them torn apart. Now he's back to help repair the barn, and Carla can't ignore the pull between them. The more time they spend together, the harder it gets to hide her feelings, and the harder it is to forget that he always leaves. In a town where everyone talks and nothing stays secret for long, Carla must decide what's worth holding onto: her grief, her pride, or the man who keeps showing up when the world feels too heavy to bear.

But when Tanner West is suddenly back in her life, the big brother to her best friend's fiancee, she has to make a choice.

An independent dreamer yearning for purpose finds her world colliding with a private cowboy whose life stays tied to the ranch and guarded like a secret no one gets to read.

"Just cause he acts like a bitch don't make him a woman" "Just because you've got a dick doesn't make you a man" Once, they'd been friends. Brothers, almost-sharing saddles, laughs, and summers on the circuit. But time and pride twisted it all to hell. Now Walker and Ray only meet in the arena, where every glare is a challenge and every word is a weapon. Set against the grit and glory of the 1980 rodeo scene, The Pattern Of Us tells the story of two cowboys tangled in more than rivalry. What simmers between them isn't just anger. It's something dangerous, something magnetic, and it's only getting harder to control. Every fight drags them deeper. Every stolen moment makes it harder to walk away. And every time they swear it's the end, the pattern pulls them back in. Because some rivalries aren't meant to end. Some are meant to consume you.
