He's spent his whole life coming second. Second son. Second choice.
The half-eared blacksmith nobody notices.


Red Langston made peace with living in his brother's shadow until Willa crashed into Dalmore, turning his world upside down. She wasn't supposed to be his problem. She wasn't supposed to make him feel like maybe, for once, he could be first.

But she chose Cash. Said yes to his drunken proposal.
And Red told himself he was fine with it.
He wasn't.

One riding lesson. One stolen half kiss. One tractor was left on her porch in a drunken rage.
When his brother calls him out for a duel, is he really ready to destroy everything?

But what if, while he's been chasing the wrong woman, the right one's been there all along?
Precious has loved Red since they were kids. Slept in his bed. Cooked in his kitchen.
And he never noticed. Not until it's too late.

RED is a witty, steamy small-town western rom-com about unrequited love, sibling rivalry, and the dangerous game of wanting what you can't have. Perfect for fans of forbidden attraction, childhood friends to lovers, spicy scenes that'll steam up your Kindle, and cowboys who are terrible at feelings but great with their hands. *blushing*

Book 2 in the Langston Brothers series. Contains explicit content.

About the author

Madison Colt

13 books11 followers
Madison Colt writes raw, heart-twisting romances with characters you can’t forget and emotions you can’t shake off. Her books blend passion, humor, and that bittersweet ache of love you almost lost.

Her heroines always bring chaos—the kind that turns lives upside down—and the men? Well, they’re irresistibly addictive, sexy as hell, and impossible to walk away from. Every cup of coffee turns into sarcasm in her veins, fueling every wicked line and unapologetic twist in her stories.

When she’s not writing, she’s riding horses, traveling to new places, people-watching in coffee shops, or plotting her next fictional heartbreak—all while being dangerously funny and more than ready to mess with your heart.

Read with caution: you might laugh, cry, and fall a little bit in love. The characters in her books are fictional. Any resemblance to real people is purely coincidental… though the author can neither confirm nor deny otherwise.
