Riding the Line (Willow Ridge, Book 2)

'I am gonna say it Willow Ridge is on the same level as Chestnut Springs!' Reader review

Escape to Willow Ridge with a deliciously addictive, grumpy cowboy, steamy romance!

Crossing off her bucket list was easy - until she fell for him.

Cherry Hensley is determined to make her last summer in Willow Ridge count. With a bucket list full of wild ideas Cherry is ready for anything...

Except Duke Bennett.

The town's hottest bartender - and her brother's best friend - is way too tempting to resist when he offers to be her partner-in-crime.

Will they hold the line between lovers and friends?
