Book two in Country Core Series.

It has been eight years since the happenings of The Ranch Hand but not all stories are quite finished. Hazel Kilgore is in her twenties and still just as spunky as she was in her teenage years. However, a few things are different. Hazel has a flourishing career, a girlfriend and something that brings her the most joy she could ever imagine. Still, not all can be sunshine and roses and her life is suddenly spiraling out of her control.

Zoe Rodriguez is a first responder who has been through hell and still hasn't quite made it back. Maybe a fresh start will change things. She packs up her things, and that of someone who was very close to her, and makes a new start nearly two hours from her home in the small town of Huntsville, Texas. She never expected to fall in love with the still growing town...or when someone came into her her life at the most peculiar of moments.

Life is throwing these two women into quite the predicament. What to wonder is if they will accept these new events, or let them carry them both into a downfall of turmoil.

Chris and Hayley are also on the brink of a new endeavour in their lives but as always, they remain guiding and pure spirits of Kilgore Ranch.

⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains infidelity, single parenthood and elements of PTSD.

But with the arrival of a familiar stranger arriving at Black Oak Ranch, things are set to be more complicated than she'd been counting on. Ryder Matthews fucked up and he knows it. 11 years ago, he left the love of his lie in some pre-college life freak out and when he returned 3 years later, she was gone. After spending the better part of 14 months travelling the world in hopes of finding some kind of meaning to life outside of the little town where every turn is a burning memory of Sadie, he returns with no hope. He's stuck to deal with his consequences. A week after his return home, Ryder heads to Jack Taylor's ranch to get his old farm hand job back. When he steps out of the car, a 9 year old girl greets him and when her mom comes to see what the fuss is all about, he's met with the last person he thought he'd ever see back in Alcombey.

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/AKcoverdesign
