Virgin River heart meets The Hating Game bite in a second-chance romance where tension simmers, sparks fly, and love gets lassoed-kicking and cursing all the way.
Josh
Trouble tends to arrive uninvited. This time, it came with a laptop and Zoe Wilson's smile.
Smart. Gorgeous. Stubborn. And the one woman I swore I was done with.
Now she's back-invited by my sister to fix the ranch's website-and suddenly in my space, my head, and under my damn skin.
I've got enough to deal with keeping this place afloat. The last thing I need is old feelings sneaking in.
But she's still got that smile. The one that could break a man without trying.
She's terrified of horses, planning to leave in two months, and wants nothing to do with long-distance.
But even knowing how this ends... I can't seem to stay away.
Zoe
Coming back to Cafferty Ranch was supposed to be strictly business.
Then I saw Josh-still bossy, still brooding, still way too easy on the eyes.
Every day with him is a tug-of-war between logic and want.
I don't do cowboys. Or small towns. Or anything that roots me in the past.
But walking away from him this time? Might break something I can't fix.
Maybe what I ran from is exactly what I need.
