Allegra’s life has fallen apart more times than she can count. But with a new small town home and a herd of rascally goats on the family farm, the sweetly shy woman is determined to be happy with what she has. There’s no room for complications, especially from the handsome, ice-cold cowboy who keeps crossing her path.
Thorne Westfall has always been the black sheep on the Fall West Ranch, and he’s made his peace with playing the villain. Good girls like Allegra don’t fall for bad men like him. No matter how badly he craves her warm smile and kind heart, she’s firmly off limits.
But when Allegra’s life implodes yet again, Thorne is the unlikely hero who steps in to protect her and her goats. Stuck together on his family ranch, Allegra begins to discover the wounded man behind his steely facade. But can a man who’s never been anyone’s hero prove he’s worth the risk?

—Beauty and the Beast, cowboy-style
—He falls first (and so hard!)
