Wild Wager

A wounded cowboy billionaire meets his match in a fierce wolf biologist who turns his empty ranch—and guarded heart—upside down.I built Coyote Falls to hide. From the cameras. The crowds. The accident that left me hollow.Then my sister’s best friend, Lanie Parker, shows up at my door—wild-cherry hair, cinnamon-sugar scent, Big Sky eyes that see everything I’ve tried to bury. She studies wolves in Alaska’s remotest corners. She’s built for wild places, for a life that’s the opposite of everything I am.But she looks at me like I’m whole. Like the scars on my skin and the wager I made, which could lose me everything I’ve worked so hard to build, don’t define me. Like this damaged ex-rodeo star might actually be worth saving. I shouldn’t ask her to stay. Shouldn’t pull her into my empty homestead, my found family of broken cowboys, the refuge I carved from granite and sweat. Shouldn’t touch her when I know damn well I’m riding toward my own destruction in a few weeks. But shouldn’t and can’t are two different things.And the only thing I can’t do? Let her go.This unmissable steamy Western romance from USA Today bestselling author Sofia Aves is perfect for fans of Elsie Silver, Lyla Sage and Elliott Rose.
