Weston Calder doesn't do soft. Not anymore. Not since he watched his mother cheat and his father drink himself to death on the porch of Calder Ranch. Now, Weston lives alone on the land that ruined him, with only dust, silence, and the bitter weight of his past for company. That is-until she shows up. Willow Hart is used to running. From the foster homes that never loved her. From the pain her adoptive parents carved into her bones. From every place she's ever tried to settle. But when her car dies in the middle of nowhere, she ends up taking a job as a maid on Weston's ranch-and suddenly, stillness feels dangerous. She's too wild. He's too broken. And neither of them knows how to stop. What begins as resentment turns to heat. What simmers under the surface soon ignites. But Weston's ghosts don't stay buried for long-and Willow's past has never let her go quietly. On this land, love won't save them. But maybe-just maybe-it could burn them clean. [Patreon Exclusive]

You know that saying that goes like 'things don't always work out the way you planned'? Well I know that saying very well. It is the only thing that can explain what is happening and why my whole world has been flipped upside down. I'm part of the revolution, I've always been. The king of our little land called Terrian is oppressive and crooked, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Although he doesn't like using the word 'poor'. People like me are referred to as the 'unfortunate'. As if luck had anything to do with our situation. So how did I get here? How did I go from being the most wanted criminal in Terrian and supporting Jack in his effort to kill the royal family to a guest in that same exact royal family's castle? The only answer I can find is the young prince who, despite his horrible father, gives me hope. Hope for a better life for the unfortunate. Hope for a better ruler. Hope, a thing I barely even remember feeling before. But I can feel as well as see the revolution stirring in the streets right outside the castle. A revolution I helped create. A revolution that was planning on killing the only thing I had faith in anymore. I couldn't let that happen. So let me tell you the story about how I, the notorious Kingdom Thief, got stuck in the middle of this war.
