Blake Coleman has always been the steady one. The rancher who keeps his family in line, the man who doesn’t take risks—because he knows exactly how fast trouble can blow up in your face. And nothing screams trouble like the blonde beauty who just moved into his house.

Jaxi’s the girl he grew up protecting, the one he swore was off-limits. Except she isn’t a girl anymore. She’s sunshine and sass, legs for days, and a smile that tempts him to break every rule he’s ever made.

Now Jaxi’s done waiting for Blake to see her as anything but the kid he once looked out for. She knows what she wants—and it’s him. All of him. She’s ready to prove that the girl next door has grown up into the only woman who can handle the grumpy, bossy cowboy who’s been running from what’s right in front of him.

When living under the same roof turns tension into fire, Blake has a choice: keep pretending she’s off-limits while his brothers line up to take their shot…or claim Jaxi for good and show everyone that this cowboy is done playing by the rules.

A forced-proximity, age-gap small-town romance full of slow-burn tension, protective cowboys, and a heroine who refuses to be ignored.
