A Real Cowboy Always Protects (Wyoming Rebels)

Book excerpt: Is it really a second chance at love if a sexy, charming cowboy proposes marriage only to protect you from a CIA assassin? Haunted by shadows that will never let him go, CIA agent Logan Stockton walked away from his cowboy past ten years ago. But when his sassy, adorable neighbor gets targeted by his enemies, he'll do whatever it takes to protect her…including taking her back to his hometown as his fake fiancée to hide out. Skylar Jones has lost too much, and all she wants is to bury herself in her work and forget...but there's one man Skylar can't help but notice. Fortunately, her handsome, brooding neighbor is no more interested in dating than she is...which is exactly how she wants it. But when Skylar stumbles into the middle of a botched attempt on his life, her safety becomes his responsibility. Sparks fly hot and fast when Logan takes Skylar to Wyoming as his fake fiancée to protect her. But can they stay alive long enough to find love, especially when his matchmaking family has plans for the two workaholics who are afraid to trust again? Tropes: Friends to lovers. Slow-burn romance. Fake fiancée. Lots of feels. Laughter. A hot cowboy burned by love. Matchmaking family members. ★★★★★ "Absolutely swoon worthy, lovable and emotionally driven.
