[The Watty's 2023 Shortlist]

When a young cowboy comes to corn country, all he's looking for is a paycheck and a man he used to know. After searching up and down the heartland, what he finds is a small town that has its own bad memories of cowboys, and a farmer and his son who won't hold that against him. With no money and no leads, he takes a job with the Walker men, Alan, and his father Noah, for the season, expecting nothing more than a place to rest his head for the summer. 

But when twenty-five-year-old Ray comes into twenty-one-year-old Alan's life, the younger man's world suddenly opens up with possibilities. After spending his whole life tucked away on his family farm, Ray is unlike anyone he'd ever known, and with new experiences come new feelings. Alan begins to think of things beyond the farm, but when the man Ray is looking for suddenly shows up, Alan is suddenly faced with the idea that Ray may not be in his future at all.  

Who will stay and who will go?

Life is about to get real complicated on the farm.

[2022 WATTPAD BOOKS AWARD & WATTY WINNER: GETTING PUBLISHED 2025] There's a boy at Evergreen High that has a different girlfriend every two weeks, and yet, none of them speak badly of him. This perplexes Skyler Fox, a clever girl with a strong sense of justice. Even more so when one of her best friends spends two weeks dating him, before moving cross country - and still sings his praises. He has to be doing something to these girls; is it black magic; or maybe hypnosis? Whatever it is, Skyler knows this guy is abnormal and she's determined to get to the bottom of it. Even if it means she needs to play this twisted game of make-believe love with him. Noah Archer is confident, impulsive, a bit of a daredevil - and he's just looking for love. The problem is, he can't seem to find it. He takes two weeks to get to know any girl that asks him out, and if in the end, he doesn't fall in love, that's it. All he wants is to find the one, whoever she is. Noah has seen the nasty glares Skyler has been shooting his way for the past year, so imagine his surprise when she ambushes him in front of their school and asks him out. Naturally, though, he accepts. And so begin the two weeks that will change both of their lives forever. ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU meets THE SUN IS ALSO A STAR in this YA romance full of awkward moments, funny situations, and heart throbbing surprises. © 2020 Kat Featherly All rights reserved

"Dance with me." While I knew it wasn't a demand, it wasn't a question either. I hesitated and he noticed. "Come on Grace, give this gentleman the honor of a dance." "I don't see a gentleman anywhere." He chuckled, stepping closer and tucking his thumbs into his tight jean pockets. He looked like every woman's dream--dark jeans that hugged him sinfully, golden-tanned skin contrasted by his white-fitted shirt, a black, wide-brimmed cowboy hat, and a smile that could send any woman on her knees. Not to mention a voice that coated your skin like silk sheets. I hated how much I noticed. "You're right, but I would like the honor anyway... ma'am." ********************* Meet Grace--living the city life, reserved, eager to please, loyal to a fault. Feeling empty for reasons she's not yet sure of, she's adamant on chasing anything that makes her feel free. Meet Colt--living the country life, private, stubborn, outspoken. Feeling empty for reasons he's well aware of, he hides in his daily routine. Grace can't seem to figure out why she holds nothing back when it comes to Colt. He's absolutely infuriating. Colt can't seem to understand the affect Grace has on him, and why he cares what she does. She's entirely maddening. When the two get lost in the wilderness, it's up to Colt to get them back. Can they put their differences aside long enough to survive? Is it Colt who will save Grace, or is it she who will be his saving grace?

**Be aware that this is a manXman story so if that bothers you then please don't read! 5th in Breaking Series. There are certain things that make a man a man in late 1870's Texas. Being able to rope, ride and handle cattle to name a few. Shooting from the hip, playing poker and throwing back whiskey never hurt either. Nick could do all those things but none of that would matter if anyone knew the truth about him-if anyone knew his secret. So to protect that secret, Nick keeps to himself as he works on the ranch at Atkinson Spread. He likes his job and the bosses are decent but Nick is lonely. Covered in scars, both of the physical and emotional variety, he longs for one person he can truly be himself around. That one person he can love. Aiden is running. He's been running since his family realized what he was, called him an abomination and cursed him to death. Bakerstown Texas is where his legs and his will to run finally give out. Somehow he finds himself hired on to work at Atkinson spread though he knows nothing about cattle. He has already resigned himself to a life alone but that thought goes out the window when he lays his eyes on a ranch hand named Nick. Even then, Aiden knows he can't have Nick. Nick doesn't seem to suffer from the same condition that Aiden was born with and so there's not a lot Aiden can do about his attraction to the other man. Until a night at the saloon goes a bit too far...... Can these two men be together or will their secret be found out and their disease dealt with the frontier way?
