Wild Hearts
COMPLETED and EDITED with Grammarly. Raelynn Montgomery was a child genius, graduated high school at 14, undergrad at 15, graduate at 18, and doctorate in veterinary medicine at 21. I've had my life planned out since I was a child and everything is going according to plan, that is until my mom threw a wrench into my plans. I had no idea she married a new man and moved to Wyoming, she was supposed to be in Texas still working at her law firm. We were never close but she wants to change that now, she wants me to be apart of her new family with her new husband and his two sons. I had no idea the feelings that would develop for these two men... and their best friend. This is going to be interesting considering my past, the one boy that ruined relationships for me because of abuse. Can these 3 cowboys change my opinion on love? Copper Bishop, aged 34, a navy SEAL veteran with baggage from his time in the military. He's fiercely loyal and protective of his family. Rhett Bishop, aged 30, a navy fighter pilot veteran, lost half of his right arm serving his country faithfully. He's guarded and has a little hot headed when need be. Ezra Woods, aged 34, he's best friend's with Copper and Rhett having grown up together. He's the sheriff of the county that the Bishop Ranch is located in. Author's note: This book is loosely based off of Yellowstone, Copper is most definitely based off of Kayce from Yellowstone (love him so, so much) but Copper will be different in some ways. I'm kind of putting a mafia spin on it as well. This is a mature book, there will be sexually explicit scenes and the FMC (Rae) will end up with three (3) men. It is a why choose/reverse harem book. I will have a list of characters and probably a playlist listed, if you're not a country music/western music fan, ignore those playlist (lol). Please do not steal my work, I'm working really hard on this book.Complete
Stories From Under A Bootheel (Rants, Laughs, and Tears)
Stories from another time and place to make you think, laugh, and possibly shed a tear. I know I did, but for me the stories are personal. This is for those who can appreciate the insanity of the world I was raised in. One should never judge the past by the standards of the present. Of course, that doesn't stop me from judging the present by the standards of the past. Age and a lifetime of hard-earned experience has earned me that privilege.Complete
Falling For A Cowboy (NOW ON GALATEA)
Second Chance Romance Love-at-first sight--faster-paced love affair Single father Surprise baby HEA standalone Five years ago, my life changed when my wife left my two-year-old son and me in the middle of the night-breaking my heart. After that, I vowed to friends and family that I'd never fall in love again and would only focus on raising my autistic son and working on my farm and horse ranch. That was until a beautiful blonde-haired, green-eyed beauty moved to my town--changing my life forever. Being stubborn, I did everything I could not to let my ticker control me and my thinking process--avoiding eye contact with Josie, conversations, and what my ticker, mind, and soul was telling me... But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at and became jealous whenever Jack, the town's annoying wanna-be cowboy, tried striking a relationship up with her. I always felt my wife, Hailey, would return to Maverick and me, and we'd be a family again. But the more time I focused on the new girl in town, the more I wanted Hailey out of my life, and the more I wanted Josie in mine. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesignComplete
