Courting the Renegade
(2026)(The ninth book in the Renegades of Clearwater County series)
A novel by Bonnie R Paulson
Two Bailey brothers. One Smythe girl. And a choice that could break more than hearts.
Sienna Smythe has watched the town start to change — watched Smythe girls cross the water and Baileys cross it back — and she’s begun to let herself hope for a love of her own. She just never expected two brothers to come courting at once.
Brayden Bailey is steady where his brother is bold, patient where his brother is quick — and he’s loved Sienna long before his brother ever noticed her. Now he has to decide whether family loyalty means stepping aside, or whether some things are worth fighting even a brother for.
Caught between two good men and a town that’s still learning to let its children be happy, Sienna will have to figure out the difference between the love that dazzles her and the love that will stay. And Brayden will have to risk everything — his brother, his pride, his place in the family — to be chosen.
A tender, angsty, brother’s-best-friend love-triangle romance. Sweet, clean, and full of longing.
