Evan: Kiss Me Again, Cowboy

by Maddie James

Evan MacKay is grateful to have his twin brother, Ethan, working beside him and managing Sweet Grass Ranch. Maintaining their ranch lifestyle is his priority, and even though they are executing their 5-year recovery plan approved by the bank, he worries the ranch can’t continue to support the family. Secretly, he waits for the other boot to drop.The other boot turns out to be Jimmy Choo black stiletto heels worn by the new banker in town.Jessica Chase doesn’t claim to be an expert on ranching, but she’s in whiz in finance, particularly in whipping delinquent accounts into shape. As the new kid on the block, she is driven to succeed, and eager to find solutions to pull the Sweet Grass Ranch account back to solvency. She is also eager to rebuild her life in South Dakota, moving lock-stock-and-barrel to Rapid City.The city woman in heels who knows a lot about money, Evan admits, but nothing about cattle. He tries to advise her about ranch business, but she insists cattle are not important. All commodities are the same. While intrigued by the abrupt rancher who tries to educate her about cows, Jessica feels her resolve slipping. She has a job to do, and it doesn’t involve kissing the sexy cowboy until her glasses steam up.But kiss him, she does.As Jessica and Evan tangle over the account, Evan’s mother introduces billionaire rancher, Gage Parker, into the equation. Gage makes Evan an offer to buy the ranch, suddenly sending the family—and Jessica—into a quandary.

Sweet Grass Ranch

As usual, Maddie, you nailed it. Loved the family story and the love story also. It is always nice to hear about families that truly stick together and love each other.
