Cowboy Elite: Joe. Cowboy Elite, #3

He had one ambition left. She walked right through it in three-inch heels. Joe Watkins came home from the war with steady hands and a heart that wouldn't quiet down. Ten years of flying medevac taught him how to land in the dark, how to hold a man together until the doctors could take over, and how to keep every bit of it locked behind an easy smile. Now he runs cattle and guests at the Watkins family dude ranch in Bear Valley, Texas, and he has exactly one ambition left.
Stillness. Emma Blackstock has never been still a day in her life. She plans the kind of Dallas weddings that end up in magazines, she's about to get her name on the door of the best firm in the city, and she stopped believing in forever the year she watched her mother cry through a fifth divorce. Three weeks in a town with one traffic light and a restaurant named Cooters was not the plan. Neither was the quiet cowboy who keeps showing up with coffee and a goat named Tiny following him like a dog.
Between a meddling grandfather with a Corvette and a jet, a ranch full of family and guests with opinions, and a wedding that's quietly being sabatoged, two people who agreed this was strictly business are running out of ways to pretend that it's not. Some vows get spoken at an altar. Some get made on a dark porch, in a whisper, when nobody else is listening. A sweet, closed-door, small-town Texas billionaire romance with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
