She came to buy his land. The widowed cowboy plans to claim far more than her signature. When rain and bad roads strand Chicago closer Eliza Grant at Maddox Ranch, she meets Beau Maddox-the reclusive, battle-scarred rancher who hasn't forgiven the world since tragedy carved him hollow. Her job is simple: secure the contract and go. His rule is simpler: no one crosses his fence or his past. But a storm turns a business visit into a siege of wills.
Every stare is a standoff, every kiss a mistake they keep making. Eliza's career hangs on the sale; Beau's legacy-and the last piece of his heart-hang on a "no." Heat coils into obsession, small-town gossip rides hard, and corporate pressure turns deadly serious. To keep her safe, he'll burn every bridge. To break his silence, she'll set her own rules on fire. He's the kind of cowboy you don't tame-you survive.
She swore she wouldn't fall. The ranch may not sell. but her heart just might. High-heat, forbidden age-gap, enemies-to-lovers small-town romance with a grumpy, possessive rancher, a ruthless city heroine, and a guaranteed HEA. A standalone in The Obsessive Cowboy Series.
