Book Description

A sense of duty brings a soldier home… but a passionate cowboy makes him want to stay. Love can heal the deepest wounds in this M/M cowboy and military enemies-to-lovers romance. After his brother’s tragic death, Tripp has to leave the army and return to New Mexico to take care of his mother while his father is in prison for arson. Seeking work at the J-Bar Ranch, Tripp is immediately drawn to injured cowboy Lucho Reyes, whose foot was accidentally crushed by a rescue horse. But will the sins of the father interfere with the desires of the son? Tripp’s father may be responsible for the death of Lucho’s grandfather. Now Tripp must balance caring for his mother, repairing his father’s damages, and trying to win the heart of a man who has every reason to hate him and his family… Praise for Z. A. Maxfield: “Z. A.
