Wild Winds & Whiskey Hearts - The Dawson Creek Series Book One

Callie Dawson swore she'd never come back. But when her father falls ill, she has no choice but to return to the family ranch-the one place she thought she'd left behind forever. What she didn't expect? That Wes Callahan, her best friend's infuriating older brother, is still there. Still stubborn. Still maddeningly handsome. And still the man who shattered her heart years ago.

Wes has spent his life keeping his emotions locked up tighter than a barn in a storm. The ranch is his home, his responsibility, and the one thing he refuses to lose. But Callie's return shakes up everything he's spent years trying to forget-including the feelings he buried deep.

Forced to work side by side, their clashes spark more than just old resentment. The tension between them is hotter than a Texas summer, but neither is willing to give in. Not until a violent tornado forces them together in the dark, where whispered confessions change everything.

When the dust settles, Callie must decide: walk away again or fight for the love she's been running from all along?
