Professional bull rider Emmett Bush is not looking for love. Hes looking for a paycheck to save his familys farm from bankruptcy. So, when he agrees to be the leading man on a hot new reality dating show,Romance Ranch, hes already decided its all one big performance.

Until Julia Silva walks onto his property. Smart, snarky, beautiful, and off-limits in more ways than one. As the location consultant on set and the little sister of his most bitter professional rival, shes the last woman who should pique his interest.

Julia has been warned about Emmett. She knows better than to fall for his cocky swagger, broad shoulders, and smoldering good looks.
