The Cowboy's Hat

One busted heel. One arrogant cowboy. And a legal brief that just won't write itself.

Savannah Reeves is exactly where she's worked her entire life to be: forty stories above Houston, on the fast track to a senior partnership at one of the city's most prestigious law firms. She has a color-coded ten-year plan, a closet full of Italian wool, and absolutely no room for error-or for the Hill Country. But when her impulsive sister drags her to the 2,000-acre Cooper Ranch for a bachelorette getaway, Savannah's high-gloss world collides with the limestone and dust of reality.

Declan Cooper doesn't have time for city girls in five-hundred-dollar shoes. As the foreman of his family's legacy, he's too busy outrunning his father's ghost and keeping a struggling ranch solvent to worry about a sharp-tongued litigator who looks at his land like a crime scene.

He thinks she won't last two days. She's determined to prove him wrong.

But between a midnight rescue in a Texas thunderstorm and a high-stakes battle against a corporate "snake" from her past, Savannah and Declan discover that some contracts are written in more than just ink. As the city lights fade into a North Ridge sunset, Savannah must decide if she's running away from her life-or finally running toward it.

In a world where owning the hat means owning the cowboy, can a Houston hustler find her home in the wild?
