So, when the production company I'm interviewing with in Sheet Cake, Texas, wants proof that I've got long-term roots here, I invent a fake local boyfriend. Which would have been fine had they not asked to meet him. Today.

I was matched once. An Alpha who promised me forever, who made me believe in all those things they say about true mates. And then I lost him. After that, I stopped dreaming. Stopped hoping. I told myself some bonds only come once in a lifetime… and mine was already gone. So when a surprise inheritance drags me from city life to a ranch in the middle of nowhere, I plan to keep things simple. Sign the papers. Sell the land. Drive away and forget this place ever existed. Then I meet them. Cash. Walker. Ridge. Three Alphas with stubborn streaks, patient smiles, and that maddening cowboy charm.

Besides proving I'm a good worker, and can make a difference on his peach farm. It seems I can't stop throwing myself at him. I didn't think Asher would rock my world. I didn't think he'd help me with a family problem and I sure as hell didn't think he'd make me want to stay. I just wanted a good time. But now all I can think about is how I want forever with Asher Wild.
