Flirting with the Renegade
(2026)(The tenth book in the Renegades of Clearwater County series)
A novel by Bonnie R Paulson
Left at the altar by a woman who feared the curse — and rescued by the one who doesn’t believe in it.
Paxton Bailey was supposed to get married. Instead he got left standing at the water while his bride fled the curse everyone in Bailey still whispers about. Humiliated and heart-sore, the last thing he wants is another woman — especially a sharp-tongued outsider who blew into town with no patience for feuds, curses, or brooding cowboys.
Delaney doesn’t care which side of the creek anybody stands on. She thinks the whole town is ridiculous, she says exactly what she thinks, and she has absolutely no intention of falling for a jilted Bailey with a chip on his shoulder the size of Montana. Which is a problem, because Paxton has never in his life met a woman who saw straight through him — or one who made him laugh when he’d sworn off ever feeling anything again.
She doesn''t believe in the curse. He’s terrified she’s the only thing that could break it. Sometimes the person who doesn’t know the rules is the only one who can rewrite them.
A banter-filled, opposites-attract, grumpy-cowboy romance. Sweet, clean, and laugh-out-loud swoony.
