After a long hiatus, a pandemic, and three children getting married, I finally have a book published!
Yay!
And I love the premise—a modern-day arranged marriage. Amelia Grayson is propelled into an unlikely match with Montana cowboy Garrett Strong when they bid against each other for the Double J Ranch. Financing is tight for Garrett, but he is determined to preserve his beloved rodeo mentor’s historic ranch—the place he considers a second home. Amelia’s dream of starting a teen addiction recovery ranch is within grasp, but first she needs the money from her trust fund. Unfortunately, her grandmother included a marriage clause in the irrevocable trust, stating Amelia must be wed before she sees a dime.
Private investigators, past secrets, and a land-hungry oil and gas company threaten both of their dreams. When it appears neither will secure a contract for the ranch, can a city girl and a rodeo cowboy agree to a marriage of convenience for the sake of the Double J?
Opposites attract in this cowboy fake fiancé romance, delivering a delightful blend of sweet romance, humor, and a touch of mystery.
Begrudgingly Engaged is the first novel in my Crooked Creek Romance Series.
