After the loss of her older sister, Kennedy Channing is granted custody of her niece, Lucy, along with a quest to find the young girl's father and start a new life closer to him.
With nothing but a name and a handful of clues, the heartbroken duo set off to track down a fun-loving cowboy named Nash.
When Kennedy finds The Wildflower Way ranch, the gruff cowboy she encounters is nothing like the carefree man her sister described. Nash has made an art out of being a loner, and trust isn't something he comes by easily.
Kennedy wants to honor her sister's final wish, but protecting Lucy's fragile heart matters more. She takes a job on the ranch, hoping to get to know Nash better before revealing the truth.
What she doesn't expect is the quiet pull between them, or how this rugged world of his will start to feel like home.
As the dust settles and the sun rises. She discovers that the family you find is just as important as the one you lost.

Two Different Lives (AU)
Darcy Pierce was a normal girl, living in the big city. She wanted to have a quiet life, and the only way for her to do that was to leave and move to a small town in Texas. Darcy knew her parents wouldn't be happy, nor would her brothers, sisters, and niece, but she wanted to get away. Jeremy Renner was a closed off man that stayed to himself. He and his little girl lived on a farm, and he took care of the farm and sold eggs and whatever plants he harvested on his land. He was very busy, but he wasn't one to ask people for help. Darcy moved to a small set of homes about five miles from Jeremy's farm, so when she sees him at a local farmer's market, no one is surprised. He was always there selling things, he just wasn't one to talk to everyone in town. He had a select few friends, and that was it. Everyone knew everyone though, so when Darcy and Jeremy begin to hang out the entire town begins to gossip...Concluida

She's more than happy taking things at her own pace. Hoping that if she moves slow enough, she can keep her and her daughter in their own little bubble that has kept them safe all these years. 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. Let alone with a child. Ryder and Sadie have a lot of baggage to unpack if they have any hope of being able to tolerate working together. But when his heart is still beating for her and her heart is locked behind solid concrete walls, is that even possible?Concluida
The Rancher's Fall
He thought he'd buried the past. She just wanted coffee. Neither expected fate... or a dog with matchmaking ambitions. Blake McAllister is a quiet rancher with calloused hands, a guarded heart, and a secret fortune he keeps as well-hidden as his pain. After losing his father and the woman who walked away when he needed her the most, Blake chose solitude over second chances. His only companion? Rex-a loyal, oversized dog who may or may not be meddling in his love life. Emma Carter is juggling too many jobs and not enough sleep, splitting her time between Prairie Ridge Hospital as a physiotherapist and Prairie Perk Café just to stay afloat. The last thing she expects is to literally run into a mysterious cowboy... especially one grumbling about scarves, fender benders, and his "clean driving record." Their accidental encounter sparks more than just mild chaos. But trouble isn't far behind. Carrie-the woman from Blake's past-is back in town with secrets, smiles, and a hidden agenda. And as emotions rise, truths unravel, and sparks fly, Blake must decide if he's ready to fall again... or if he's destined to keep running from the very thing he needs most. *Copyright ©️ *Mature ContentConcluida![Fate - Book #1 [completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/298300356-256-k105974.jpg)

Southern Charm
Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations. While others her age are embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!

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/AKcoverdesignConcluida
