The Last Draw
An outlaw love story with bite. Cassidy "Copper" Lane doesn't do trust, not after what the world's taken from her. She rides solo, shoots straight, and keeps her scars where everyone can see them-so no one dares get close. Then Arthur Morgan shows up. Van der Linde gang enforcer. Too serious. Too smart. And way too good at peeling back the walls she spent years building. Thrown together by bad luck and worse timing, Cassidy and Arthur navigate bullets, bounty hunters, and betrayal on the fading edge of the Wild West. She's got a sharp tongue. He's got a quiet kind of storm. Together, they're either the perfect disaster or the last chance either of them has at redemption. Witty, brutal, and full of heart, The Last Draw is a gritty western romance where survival means keeping your gun loaded-and maybe, just maybe, letting someone in. Inspired by the world of Red Dead Redemption II, this gritty tale of survival, revenge, and redemption is a must-read for fans of Western epics and slow-burning romances.

Wildflowers In The Wind - Arthur Morgan
"They say you fall in love three times in your life," you said finally. Your voice was quiet, but it did not shake. "You ever heard that?" Arthur huffed a breath. "Can't say I have." "The first is young and foolish. That kind that feels like the whole world, because you do not know how big the world really is yet. Everything is bright and easy, and you think every ache is the worst one you will ever feel." "The second is fierce," you said. "All joy and heartbreak tangled together. The fire, you know? The kind that burns hot enough to light up everything in you you did not know you had." Arthur looked up at you then. His eyes were soft and wrecked at the same time. "The third," you said, "is deep. Unshakable. It is the one that never burns out. It might glow softer. It might hurt different. But it is the one that does not go away when the firewood runs low." "I have met you three times in my life, Arthur Morgan," you said. "And every single time, you have made me fall in love with you all over again. You're the only way I know how to love." You sat down beside him, close enough that your thighs brushed. You did not look at him yet. You looked at your hands. "That third kind is the one you are supposed to build your life on," you said. "The one you are supposed to protect. Not keep throwin' into fires to see if it survives." You finally met his eyes. "Do not make me fall for you a fourth time, Arthur."
