He's a grumpy cowboy focused on turning a profit. She's a sassy marketing consultant trying to hide a secret.

Pearl

It was him! That clumsy muscle dude that barreled over me at the gas station.

My stomach tightened as I sat across from him, a grin stretched across his face.

Keep your mouth shut, I said to myself while forcing a smile. I needed this job, even if I had to kiss his ass to keep it.

Bryce

I wasn't thrilled about bringing in a consultant, but that all changed when she walked through the door: the curvy redhead from the gas station. I could still feel the sting from her tongue-lashing for spilling her coffee.

The look on her face was priceless when she realized I was the one she'd be working for. If she thought those big blue eyes and cute freckled nose were going to work on me, she was... right. I wanted nothing more than to give her a tongue lashing of my own; only mine wasn't going to sting.

Steamy short-read can be read as "STAND ALONE" or in the Maverick Mountain Series
