He’s a cowboy with a secret.
She’s a librarian with a checklist.
And in the small town of Sweetheart Creek, opposites attract…
Librarian Karen Hartley is not looking for a cowboy.
And she’s definitely not looking for a jock.
So when ranch-owning, football-coaching Myles Wylder shows up with inquisitive blue eyes, impossibly broad shoulders, and an offer to help save the town library, Karen refuses to let herself fall for his charm. After all, he doesn’t check a single box on her carefully planned Mr. Right list.
But the more time she spends with the kindhearted cowboy, the harder it becomes to ignore the little voice telling her there may be more to Myles than first impressions.
Maybe even more than what’s on her list.
Myles already knows he’s not the man Karen imagined for herself. Still, he’s determined to prove there’s more to life—and love—than playing it safe. And helping her save the Sweetheart Creek library seems like the perfect place to start.
There’s only one problem.
He’s hiding a secret that could change everything.
Can this cowboy win the heart of the cautious librarian? Or will the truth destroy their chance at a happily ever after?
