Blue Ridge Ranch #1
Worth The Wait
Jilted groom. Wedding planner. A slow burn worth every second.
Welcome to Blue Ridge Ranch.
Ben Callahan doesn't do chaos. He does early mornings, tidy fences, and a list for everything — which is how he ends up at the altar of a beautiful mountain barn, ten minutes from marrying the wrong woman. Until he catches his bride with the best man.
Ella Lockhart has spent her whole life taking care of everyone else. Something Blue — the wedding venue she built in her grandmother's memory — was finally supposed to be hers. Instead, her very first wedding implodes before the vows, and her dream along with it.
Ben should go home. Instead, he stays. To make it right, he tells himself. Fixing fences. Finishing the barn. Leaving coffee on the porch rail before she's awake.
But there's nothing polite about the way he watches her. And when a summer storm finally pushes them past the line they've both been pretending isn't there, Ben discovers that the calm, capable wedding planner comes beautifully undone in his hands.
Slow mornings. Slower kisses. A quiet cowboy who worships with actions, not words.
Ella's falling for the steadiest man she's ever met. The problem is, she's keeping one secret.
She knew about the affair before the wedding.
And she never said a word.
Worth the Wait is a steamy, open-door cowboy romance with a guaranteed HEA

This book is a slow burn at the beginning. It gets hot then cold. But it comes back a roaring fire
