If you can’t get enough Ransom Canyon and the rugged charm of small-town cowboy romances, these books are for you! From the thrill of barrel racing and bull riding to the quiet moments spent caring for animals and farms, the heroes and heroines in these stories are as tough as they come, with hearts as big as their boots. Whether it’s working the land or the wild chemistry that simmers between MCs, these cowboys and cowgirls know how to take care of business—and each other—in more ways than one.
If you binged Netflix’s adaptation, but haven’t read Jodi Thomas’ novel that inspired the show, make sure you start there (and then read the other seven books in the series)!
