Its prequel, Zero Exposure, takes a very different and slightly twisted approach to storytelling, blurring the line between the author, the story, and what might actually be true. Mostly. Allegedly.

Clean Western Review: What Readers Really Want

A good clean western review ought to say more than, “It was wholesome.” That word can mean several things, and none of them automatically guarantees an engaging story. Readers come to Western romance and historical fiction for wide country, difficult choices, stubborn people, and a sense that the past has consequences. They still want chemistry, danger, laughter, and a reason to turn one more page

“She stood there in yoga pants that probably cost more than his saddle, pristine white tennis shoes, and what appeared to be a silk blouse in a shade of pink that would send his bulls running. Her golden hair was pulled back in a neat ponytail, and she'd even put on makeup. At five in the morning. For ranch work.”
