About this ebook

Elle resigned herself to being the responsible one. She moved her and her recovering dad out of the city to a small town. Her new job keeps his medical bills at bay, and caring for her dad soaks up her free time. But she’s never had a social life anyway. 

It’s been just the two of them for so long she doesn’t know any different. 

After returning home from the army, Dillon jumps into business with four of his cousins. He’s the oldest and the unofficial leader of the farm and ranch operation. But it’s lonely at the top. At the end of the day, he comes home to an empty house, memories, and the promise made to his dad before he died.

It’s time to follow through on that promise and make an appointment with the new counselor in town.

By doing that Dillon ruins his chances with the smartest and most gorgeous woman he’s ever met just by walking into her office. He’d rather get to know her instead of talking about his problems. She’d rather transfer him to a colleague and never see him again. 

Conflict of Interest is a free contemporary western romance with an element of forbidden romance.

Ratings and reviews

The author obviously has no experience with heavy beer drinkers. It would take a dozen beers to get drunk, not five, and a thirty pack instead of a dozen to get blackout drunk. She hasn't spent any time around farmers because no self-respecting farmer would refer to his tractor as a big beast.

Nice easy read with the mystery being solved and the trust that make love possible,

book definitely real life situations and the anxiety because of the decisions that needed to be made. Very entertaining.
