About this ebook

Welcome to Riverbend, Texas, home to the red-hot stunt-riding cowboys of the Campbell family and bull riders of the Malory family. Throw in some spice and small-town scandals, and enjoy your visit in this contemporary romance series from NY Times bestselling author Jennifer Ashley.

Drew Paresky runs smack into a large cowboy at the hardware store where she’s buying supplies in her desperate attempt to restore the most derelict B&B in the world. To her surprise, the cowboy, Ray Malory, apologizes to her and helps her haul the stuff home.

Drew isn’t from Riverbend–at least, she’s never been there, even if her grandfather owned the B&B he left her in his will. If she doesn’t fix up the place and turn it around within the year, she’ll lose not only the land but the money her grandfather left her.

Ray’s help is a godsend, but Drew’s not sure whether her growing attraction to him is wise. She’ll fix up the B&B, inherit her money, and return to Chicago, where her life is. Drew can’t afford to set down in roots in Riverbend, Texas, and she certainly can’t afford to lose her heart. Can she?

Note: Much of the action of this book happens in tandem with Riding Hard: Kyle (Book 6). However, Ray's book can be read as a standalone.

Ratings and reviews

Ray is one of the good guys! We saw him earlier in Grant’s story, and you knew then he was a good guy, but he really shines with Drew. Sweet, patient, earnest, and caring, he is also strong, resilient, and stalwart, see, a good guy. Drew needs a good guy because she has been struggling for years. These two have a nice slow burn and a sweet romance, with some wonderfully exuberant bedroom antics as well. Set over the course of a year, many people in town get set-up and settled down as Ray and Drew fall further in love, and it was perfect!

Great,i have all of e-book
