The smart mouth. The brooding brothers. And the cowboy in charge who’d like the other three to help him kill me. Bowen, Carson, Crew, and Shane think that kidnapping me will keep their precious Blue Mountain free from my father’s developments. Bad gamble, cowboys: when I get out of this nowhere town, I’m going to make them pay. I know I should keep my head down while I work on my escape plan. But these cowboys aren’t exactly the strong, silent type you see in old movies. They talk. A lot. Bowen, about his trouble finding his place in their group. The brothers, about their haunting pasts. Even Shane offers up the occasional insult my direction or allusion to his life before my kidnapping. And I have to admit… getting to know them is making things complicated for me. I can’t fall for these men. Talk about Stockholm Syndrome. Besides, while they’ve been busy spouting off to their abductee, I’ve been careful to watch my own mouth. What might happen if these merciless cowboys discovered that I—heir to my recently comatose father’s business—was really the one who set out to destroy the town they love?
