I didn’t move eight hundred miles to fall for a man like Cade Garrison.
I come to Ridgemont for a clean start. A small-town clinic. A quiet house on Oak Street. A life where my son can breathe without walking on emotional landmines. I am not looking for steady shoulders or slow-burn eye contact. I’m not looking for a man who remembers how I take my coffee.
And I’m definitely not looking for the rancher who runs this valley like he was born carrying it.
Cade is calm. Observant. Unhurried in a way that makes me feel seen instead of managed. He shows up for his ranch hands. He shows up for my son. And when he looks at me, it’s like he’s already decided I matter.
That should scare me.
It does.
Because I’ve loved certainty before. I’ve mistaken control for safety. I’ve learned what it costs to say yes too easily.
I tell myself I’m careful now. That I don’t gamble with my heart. That I don’t risk my son’s world for a man who feels this solid.
But when he says he’s not going anywhere… am I brave enough to believe him?
The Cowboy's Single Mom is a short, sweet, and steamy small-town instalove romance with a happy-ever-after. It can be read as a standalone or together with the rest of the books in the Ridgemont Ranch.
Genre: General Fiction
