Cornelius' California life was a bust - late on rent, no prospects, just a one-way ticket to eviction. Then his estranged rancher father, Hank, called with an offer he couldn't refuse: work the family Texas spread for a year, and a large inheritance was his. Trading L.A. concrete for dust and cattle was hell, but worse was learning under, Beau. The man was pure cowboy heat, all hard muscle and knowing glances under a wide-brimmed hat that barely concealed his intensity. Beau was teaching him the ropes, alright, guiding his hands, pressing close, and igniting a slow burn that had nothing to do with the scorching sun-and everything to do with a desire Cornelius had never known. This overwhelming, unexpected pull towards a man was uncharted territory. But how could Cornelius build a life in a place he swore he'd leave the moment that inheritance hit his bank account?
---
Beau's life on the Richard's Ranch was as rugged and predictable as the land itself. Then Cornelius rolled in, a walking contradiction of soft city edges and fierce, desperate eyes. He was here for an inheritance, a temporary fixture Beau was supposed to break in. But every time he put a hand on Cornelius' back to guide him, felt his quickening breath during a close call, or saw the way his lips quirked when he finally got something right, a different kind of hunger stirred. Beau knew Cornelius was counting down the days until he could escape back to California, but the scorching Texas heat wasn't the only thing making Beau burn. He aimed to make sure Cornelius found something worth staying for, right there in his arms.
