Unruly Heart: A Sexy Cowboy and City Boss Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248422029)

He's a stubborn Montana cowboy bleeding to save his family's legacy. She's the ruthless Chicago executive who just inherited half of it.

Madison Sterling thrives on absolute control. As a high-powered corporate closer, her life in Chicago is measured in profit margins, spotless apartments, and five-year plans that never fail. Mud, unpredictable weather, and cowboys are definitely not on her agenda. But when a ruthless tycoon passes away, he leaves her a shocking inheritance: fifty percent of the failing Falling Star Ranch in Montana. Her plan is simple: fly out, sign the papers, liquidate the asset, and fly back to her corner office.

She didn't plan on Rhett Easton.

Rhett is as hardened and unforgiving as the Montana winters. He has bled into the soil of the Falling Star Ranch his entire life, surviving blizzards, droughts, and crushing debt to keep it out of foreclosure. Now, a billionaire's twisted will has shackled him to a polished, sharp-tongued city girl in designer heels who views his home as nothing more than a line item on a spreadsheet.

There's just one catch: to claim the ranch and save it from being sold to predatory developers, Madison and Rhett must live under the same crumbling roof and turn a net profit in exactly six months. If either of them walks away, they both lose everything.

Forced to share a drafty farmhouse, they draw battle lines. Rhett is determined to push the city girl to her breaking point, handing her the hardest chores and waiting for her to run screaming back to her glass tower. But Madison refuses to fold.

As the brutal reality of ranch life pushes them to their limits, the icy hostility between them begins to thaw into a simmering, undeniable heat. Late-night arguments over ledgers turn into breathless tension. Accidental touches in the barn ignite a wildfire they can no longer control.

Rhett realizes the only thing more dangerous than losing his land is losing his heart to the woman destined to leave. And Maddy must decide if the corporate empire she built is worth returning to, or if everything she's ever truly wanted is standing right in front of her in dust-covered denim.

Can a fierce city executive and a rugged cowboy risk it all for a love they never saw coming?
