Brodie: A Western Romance
About Brodie: A Western Romance
Deannie Hollis returned to Rascal, Texas, with one goal:Take back the ranch stolen from her family. Fifteen years ago, a crooked poker game destroyed her childhood, cost her father everything, and handed Willow Creek Ranch to the Trueblood family. Now Deannie is finally ready to reclaim her birthright, even if it means lying to the dangerously handsome cowboy who owns it.
Brodie Trueblood is nothing like the man Deannie expected. The hardworking rancher spends his days holding together a struggling family, raising his niece and nephew, and protecting the land he loves with everything he has. He’s honorable, loyal, frustratingly kind, and far too easy to fall for.
When a broken-down car leaves Deannie stranded at Willow Creek, Brodie offers her a place to stay. One night turns into another, and soon Deannie finds herself playing house with the very man she planned to deceive. But every shared meal, every late-night conversation, and every stolen kiss pulls her deeper into a life she was never supposed to want.
Because if Brodie discovers who she really is, he’ll never forgive her. And if Deannie follows through with her plan, she could lose the only man she’s ever truly loved. Brodie is an emotional cowboy romance featuring forced proximity, secret identity, marriage-of-convenience vibes, found family, and a heroine torn between revenge and love.
All Deannie Hollis had to do was woo and wed Brodie Trueblood to honor the promise she'd made her father. Regaining her birthright was all the feisty single gal had ever dreamed about. But never, in all those imaginings, had she considered what she would do if she actually fell in love with the sexy cowboy she had to marry - and couldn't keep!
So, as the pianist played the wedding march for the third time and the preacher's eyes turned heavenward, the wedding guests waited for the bride to make her appearance. Would Deannie walk down the aisle or hightail herself to the nearest town…and hope that her own Texas Trueblood would find her?
