Angol
She came home to sell. He never stopped waiting.
Joey Maddox gives herself four days in Pinch Creek, Montana. Long enough to sell her grandmother's livestock exchange and get back to the life she's built in Denver.
Then she finds Sawyer Teague feeding the cattle before dawn.
Ten years ago, she asked him to say something. He let her walk away. Now he's the one who's been keeping Ruth's barn alive, and he seems determined to make himself useful. That would be easier to appreciate if Joey could stop remembering the boy she loved.
With a debt coming due and a buyer circling, the sensible thing would be to sign the papers. But Ruth has left Joey something besides a leaky roof: a reason to question the scandal that broke both their families.
Keeping the barn means trusting Sawyer. So does telling him what she's found.
Joey knows how to get a roomful of stubborn ranchers to bid. She has considerably less practice asking a stubborn man to love her out loud.
