As I step on the plane that’ll take me back to the life I walked away from over a decade ago, I know I’m heading back for good whether I’m ready or not. That means making things right with my brothers and stepping up to run the family’s cattle ranch alongside ’em like our father expected me to. It also means breaking my mama’s heart when I have to explain that her match-making isn’t much appreciated.
What I need is a good, old-fashioned, pretend girlfriend. A woman who’ll charm my family while hanging off my arm looking at me like I hung the stars just for her. Someone who’ll fool Mom into thinking I’m ready to settle down so she’ll stop hassling me till I can get settled in.
Too bad Serenity only agrees to the ruse to get first-hand access to the local history that will help her score a job promotion back in the city, because when I say she’s what I need, it turns out, I mean forever.
