The Rancher's Princess

Rate this book
Kicked out at sixteen for being trans, twenty-two year old Cara has learned to survive on her own. She lives by some hard truths. Stay quiet, stay small, above all, try to be invisible. Working at a feed store, she keeps her head down… unwilling to allow herself to dream about love, or family. Those wishes are for other girls. Not her. Never her.

In walks Xan Callahan.

The ex-Army Ranger has just inherited his late cousin’s cattle ranch…and doesn’t know the first thing about keeping his cattle alive. Xan turns to the cute girl in the feed store with the hesitant smile, who seems to have all the answers to help his animals.

Cara’s innocence begins to awake every protective instinct in him including an ache to hear her moaning his name. As her feelings grow, Cara dreads telling Xan the truth of her past. Will Xan be the one person she can finally trust—someone to build a life with— or just another person waiting to turn against her.

Yes, please! 😍🥵💜

I was able to complete this story within a 24-hour span, and my goodness, what an absolutely heartwarming and spicy short story this was! It is extremely refreshing to see a romance explore a heterosexual relationship between a cisgender man and a transgender woman, and an extremely addictive one, to boot!

With this being the author's debut story, I wasn't sure what to expect, but Cara and Xan's organic romance far exceeded any expectations that i did form. From the get-go, I was able to empathize with both Cara and Xan, and seeing the alternating perspective of both characters really drove home certain emotions, and helps the reader unpack how our characters overcame whatever obstacle they faced. There were lots of moments that made me feel legitimate feelings for both characters (and even some of the background characters), and it had such a heartwarming and satisfying conclusion. I even found myself teary-eyed in some of the more emotionally charged situations. Oh, and the sex? Yes, please. It's so descriptive and hot, and it's sure to make any reader crave more! I am very pleased, and impressed, all around!!

I really hope this is the beginning of more stories like this to come from our Rookie Author. 💜
