Contemporary Western Romance, Small Town Romance
Date Published: January 29, 2026
When enemies are forced to play nice, sparks fly—and nothing’s safe, not even their hearts.
She’s stubborn. He’s infuriating. And neither of them has ever backed down from a challenge. Now they’ve got to team up—or tear the whole town apart trying.
Autumn Hood spent her whole life tangling with Pete Wolfe.
Her neighbor, her childhood rival, and her personal headache in scuffed-up boots and a cocky grin.
Pete Wolfe finds Autumn Hood stubborn, sharp-tongued, and always three seconds away from hurling a horseshoe at his head. But there’s something about the way she challenges him that attracts him to the cowgirl next door.
And the longer they butt heads, the more the tension sizzles into something they can’t ignore. Something’s starting to change between them.
Something special. Something risky.
Love wasn’t part of the plan… but trouble sure is.
