She can't forgive him. He can't forget her. After one disastrous date and years of mutual irritation, Cassidy Turner and Gunner Miller have perfected the art of avoidance. But when a troubled student brings Cassidy to the gates of Last Creek Ranch, old sparks reignite and not all of them are angry.
Gunner's got enough on his plate ranch expansions, land disputes, and a headstrong woman who gets under his skin in more ways than one. Cassidy's just as infuriating as he remembers... and twice as captivating. As tension gives way to truth, something unexpected grows between them. But in a town where secrets simmer and loyalty runs deep, love might not be enough to survive the storm of tragedy. Set against the green hills and rumbling skies of Silver Peaks, The Emerald Waves is a story of stubborn hearts, slow-burning redemption, and a love that refuses to back down. Some grudges run deep.
