Mountain Time (The Diamond Hart Ranch Book 1)

Knox Ward, a professional bull rider, arrives at the Diamond Hart Ranch in Colorado for six weeks to shoe horses before the summer rodeo season begins. He has one rule: no girlfriends. But he finds himself drawn to Kacey Hart, the ranch's sole heir, who is smart, independent, and beautiful. Kacey has spent years protecting her heart, believing men are interested only in her family's successful ranch. As Knox flirts and gains her trust, their connection deepens. When his summer rodeo run approaches, Knox asks Kacey to join him—risking both his world title and his heart. For Kacey, the Diamond Hart Ranch has always been her sanctuary and escape from heartbreak. As Colorado's most successful ranch's heir, she has learned that men see her as a prize rather than a person. When Knox arrives, her carefully guarded world shifts. Despite knowing a relationship with a professional bull rider is risky, she finds herself unable to let him go. As the summer rodeo season approaches and their dreams begin to collide, both must decide whether they can make it through the summer together.
