Blurb:

A new friends-to-lovers small town romance from Amber Kelly…

Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks? 

My big brother and I landed in the care of my aunt and her husband after my parents died in a tragic accident when I was three-years-old. I grew up smothered by love from a family that knows what the bitter sting of loss feels like.

Living under that umbrella afforded me the ability to grow up with the security needed to try my every whim… and I have, now it’s time to figure out who I want to be.

My family would love for me to settle down with someone grounded and successful like the sexy new vet in town. 

I like him, but I am restless. 

I don’t want to be grounded. I want to ride the wind. 

Walker Reid has worked on my family’s ranch for years. He’s like a son to Uncle Jeff and my brother’s closet friend. He is a sexy devil, drinks too much and likes to live wild and free. 

I’m drawn to him. Maybe he’ll finally be the one to help me let go and find where I belong. Or maybe my brother will kill us both.
Small Town, Ranch, Friends to Lovers. Coming to you on May 14, 2020.


EXCERPT


I sit on the porch and wait for Sonia to pick me up. I worked with Sophie this morning, and now, I’m making the post-office run to check the ranch’s PO box and then swinging by the bank to pick up Rustic Peak’s corporate credit card, which Sophie ordered in my name ahead of our trip. Then, Sonia and I are having lunch in town and heading to Denver to pick up Charlotte at the airport.
Walker pulls up on a tractor and stops in front of the steps.
He whistles. “Look at you. Where are you headed?” he asks.
I look down at my black jeans and off-the-shoulder red sweater. “Lunch,” I answer.
He hops off the tractor. “Lucky lunch date. You look gorgeous in red,” he says as he makes his way on to the porch.
“Thank you,” I say, accepting his compliment for the fact that I know he means it. “Are you taking a break?” I ask.
“Just coming to grab the sandwiches Doreen and Ria made for us and taking them out to the guys,” he says.
“Are you guys close to finishing up out there?”
“Almost. We should get the last posts wired up before we leave tomorrow. One of the crews Jefferson hired will work while we’re gone this weekend and make sure everything is secure and ready before we return on Monday.”
“I know you guys are relieved. You’ve worked so hard. I still can’t believe you pulled it off in time.”
“What? Woman, there is nothing we can’t get done if we want it bad enough,” he says with a grin.
“So cocky,” I tease, and his lips twitch.
“Say that again,” he dares.
“Say what?” I ask as I feel myself starting to blush.
He leans over and says in my ear, “You know what. I like hearing that dirty word come out of your sweet mouth.”
Now, I know my face is as red as my sweater.
“Cocky is not a dirty word,” I point out.
“I still like the way you say it,” he teases me.
The front door swings open, and Aunt Ria comes bouncing out, with a loaded tray in hand.
“Elle, dear, can you do me a favor and take this up to Sophie in the office?”
“I’ll get it, Ria,” Walker offers as he walks over to relieve her of the platter holding a tea pitcher and sandwich.
“Thank you, Walker,” she says as she hands it over and scurries back into the house.
He carries it down the steps and in the direction of the barn. As he passes me, he says, “Have fun on your lunch date.”
I stay silent as I watch him climb the steps up to the office. Was he flirting with me? Is that what just happened? I know Walker flirts with everyone, but something about that exchange felt different.
He reaches the door and looks over his shoulder at me one last time before he disappears behind it.
A shiver runs down my spine just as Sonia’s car drives through the gate.
