COWBOY ROMANCE NOVEL
 
1886 in Annona, Texas
 
Fifteen-year-old William Sullivant and his brother became orphans when their stepfather declared he could no longer support them. With only fifty cents between them, they made their way to the ferry that crossed the river to Memphis. Finn, William's brother, found work washing dishes in a saloon, while William, preferring outdoor work, took a job as a stable boy.
 
After spotting a flyer for a Texas ranch for sale, he realized he wanted to pursue a cowboy's life. Now a man and feeling unfulfilled, he saved enough money to travel as far west as Arkansas. Through a series of fortunate events, William inherited enough money to buy the Texas ranch of his dreams.
 
Lillian Eberly, beautiful and tough as any cowboy or neighboring rancher, was a dedicated suffragette and a strong advocate for women’s rights. Her assertiveness intimidated most men, but it didn’t seem to affect her new neighbor at all. Frustrated that his rugged handsomeness and calm demeanor made her feel weak, Lillian's self-anger intensified for being unable to resist his charm. Determined to assert her dominance as she had over other men with her sharp tongue, she sought opportunities to ride over frequently.
 
After successfully riding one of his broncs, she unexpectedly kissed him. However, Lillian was far from pleased when he kissed her back—not gently, either.
