From internationally bestselling small-town romance author, Greta Rose West, comes the first book in the Cade Ranch Series, Burned. Jump into the steamy Cade Ranch world from the beginning...

Jack Cade already has enough on his shoulders with his four brothers, his struggling Wyoming horse ranch, and his adopted mama going through chemo again. He doesn’t have time for a woman, and he doesn’t trust them, not since his real mama left when he was a boy. But when Everlea Donovan falls into his life—literally—he can’t stop fantasizing about her.

Wanting her.

But Everlea’s hiding something, always looking over her shoulder, ready to run at any moment. She can’t risk putting Jack and his family in danger, but she’s never wanted anything—anyone—the way she wants him. When she starts feeling at home at Cade Ranch with its wide open meadows and breathtaking mountain views, she begins to let down her guard—to both her heart and her safety—and that’s just asking for trouble…

The first book in the Cade Ranch series, BURNED is a steamy romance about learning to trust and letting love guide you home…

Ratings and reviews

First book I have read by Greta. I will start out by saying this book should probably come with a trigger warning. Stalking, abuse, PTSD, fires/burns, etc. I enjoyed this story but I felt like it dragged on a bit. It didn't need to be this long for it to be a successful story. Jack is one of the brothers that runs Cade Ranch. He became smitten with Everlea super early on in the story. She was supposed to be taking care of Ma but ended up hurting herself as well. So surprisingly Ma and Everlea ended up moving into the house at Cade Ranch with the boys. I liked Jack and the brothers but Jack was untrusting in the beginning and went through Evvie's house when he didn't really have the right too. He knew what he was getting into with Evvie but he still couldn't keep his hands off her. I liked Evvie as a person but she was going through a lot. It was super hard for her to trust also and was scared of everything. These two had great chemistry but should have communicated better. I love how sweet Jack could be but also how demanding and protective he was also. Evvie needed someone to trust though and definitely chose the right group to hang out with. I loved how the brothers liked her and her company and didn't mind her hanging around; even wanting to protect her themselves. The ending was pretty hard to read. It was creepy, and depressing and nerve wracking but it was also wholesome and sweet and prefect for these two. I will say this story/series reminded me of another series I read recently by Jordan Ford. It includes brothers with messed up pasts and suspenseful romance.

yes please! first time reading this author and i want more. this book will give you all the feels. you will laugh too. I loved all the characters. just brilliant

Well this is my second West book...and yes I am addicted. They were different so not just more of the same old! Can not wait to read another!

About the author

Greta Rose West was a floundering artsy flake until cowboy Jack Cade showed up, knocking on the door of her brain, pounding on it, and then he just plain kicked it down. She'a a boy mom to a grown freakin' man⏤whoa!⏤and she lives in NW Indiana with her husband and her two precocious kitties, Geoff Trouble and Sally Mae Midnight. When she’s not writing, she’s reading and devouring music. She enjoys indie films no one else likes, and her favorite food is Aver’s Veggie Revival pizza.
