Ranchlife Stories

When Hollywood darling Lila Hart becomes tabloid fodder after one too many public meltdowns, her PR team has the perfect fix: a discreet stay at a "wellness retreat." Translation? Rehab for her reputation. Lila has other plans. Trading red carpets for dusty boots, she escapes-under a fake name-to a quiet Montana ranch where nobody cares about box-office numbers or designer shoes. There she meets Jack Mason, a stubbornly handsome rancher who values hard work, strong coffee, and the peace of wide-open skies.

But when a persistent tabloid photographer threatens to blow Lila's cover, she's forced to decide whether to keep running from the spotlight...or finally step into it on her own terms.

William, Bill, Sheridan heard the woman's voice and then glimpsed her in her towel, long wet hair stuck to her face and shoulder. What the hell was a woman doing in the bunkhouse? "What the hell is going on? Who brought the girl?" he demanded to know, if he was going to be in charge he may as well get started now "someone get the 'tail' her clothes and get her out of here" and there was a stunned silence in the bunk house and before anyone could protest or come to anyone's defense, Max had pushed her way past Dwight, who was not fast enough to hold on to her and she swung on the newly appointed Ranch Foreman. "who the hell are YOU and who are you calling a 'Tail?" she barked at him, Garret and Frank, another one of the Cowboys, were holding on to her, as she was holding on to the only thing she was wearing, her Towel. Bill was rubbing his chin, that lady packed one hell of a punch. Lady? What kind of lady hit like that and cursed like that? "may I introduce you to Max, Ron's Daughter, who works here, eats here, showers here, always has done so, under our protection and until today was in charge of the Drive" Dwight was enjoying this way to much

"You are not to try to run away ever again," my uncle screamed in my face. His face was the deepest red, like tomatoes and his lip twitched when I smirked and said, "Your not my father, I don't need to listen to you and I never will." He puts his hand back and slaps me really hard across my left cheek, where it's decorated with scars from the weeks of abuse. "OWWWWWW, WTF!!!!!! DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH ME AGAIN," I scream at him, getting all up in his personal space. "Now you listen here and you listen well, I will not tolerate your bad attitude and behaviour, you will do as your told or ill punish you real hard to the point that you haven't got a single bone in your body that isn't broken," he states calmly. Like hell am I gonna listen to this asshole and let him beat me up and get away with it. "Go to hell," I say in a defiant tone, making him even more pissed. He seriously looks ready to kill, no joke. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stephanie Roberts; A 13-ear-old girl, who lived in a small apartment in Sydney, that was until her parents died in a so-called freak accident,but that's only what she was told.
