Rough & Ready Country: Book 8

Love at First House: A Cowboy Mountain Man / Curvy Girl Romance

Is love and family worth a thousand messy complications?

After a tragic car accident, my next-door neighbors’ five children are left without parents. Their older sister, Lily, rushes home from college, sacrificing everything to keep the family together. She throws away her future, taking menial jobs and struggling to make ends meet. It’s pathetic to watch because the irresistibly curvy, much younger woman deserves so much more…

Until the day I can’t idly sit by watching any longer… So, I make Lily a begrudging offer she can’t refuse. In exchange for marrying me, I’ll allow her and the kids to move into my cabin. Have I lost my mind? More than likely. The last thing I want—as a happy and committed bachelor—is a bunch of kids messing up my life and home. But being a millionaire custom homebuilder and former foster kid also uniquely positions me to pay it forward. Besides, it’s a simple fix. Right?

Wrong! Although our arrangement may be temporary and simple, complications abound. Chief among these? My head knows Lily’s my wife in name only, but my heart and body have other plans… plans that will be shattered if the gorgeous young woman ever learns the real circumstances surrounding our “convenient” marriage. 

If you like marriages of convenience, insta found families, age-gap relationships, and an OTT alpha male who’s sworn off love but goes all-in for the curvy girl of his dreams, you’ll adore the next steamy installment in the Rough & Ready Country series, Love at First House.
