Ride Him Home
Ten years of marriage didn’t just end—it imploded. To escape the wreckage, recently divorced Ethan Hayes runs from a life he never truly wanted and straight into the heart of the Montana wilderness.
His plan at the rugged Walker’s Edge Ranch is simple: ride, heal, and figure out who he is without a ghost in his bed. But the plan shatters the moment he lays eyes on Cole Walker. The stoic, jaw-droppingly handsome owner of the ranch, Cole ropes runaway horses with the same steely control he uses to lock down his own heart. He’s a man trapped by a brutal legacy, haunted by a tyrannical father, and completely off-limits. He’s everything Ethan has ever been terrified to want.
Cole has spent a lifetime building walls. He is the unshakable cowboy, the dutiful son, the man who’s never allowed to desire anything for himself. But the raw, quiet vulnerability in Ethan’s eyes ignites a hunger he thought he’d buried for good—a primal, dangerous craving that threatens to burn his carefully constructed world to the ground.
Forced together on a brutal two-week pack trip, every treacherous trail and rain-slicked ledge pushes them closer. Unspoken feelings ignite under starry skies, but Cole’s defenses, built from a lifetime of shame, are as unyielding as the mountains around them. When a catastrophic storm traps them in the unforgiving wilderness, they’re left with two choices: confess the explosive truths that could save their souls, or be buried forever with their secrets.
Ride Him Home is the first book in the Walker’s Edge series. This is a double bi-awakening featuring a brooding, grumpy cowboy and the recently-divorced city boy who cracks his armor. Packed with the high-stakes turmoil of a closeted hero battling internalized homophobia, intense hurt/comfort, and the unbreakable bonds of a found family, this slow burn ignites with scorching high heat. Expect explicit scenes, deliciously filthy dirty talk, powerful Dom/sub undertones, and a life-or-death forced proximity scenario that will leave you breathless. This book ends on a happily-for-now (HFN), but Ethan and Cole’s story is guaranteed a happily-ever-after (HEA) at the conclusion of their trilogy.
Note on Exclusivity: This story contains a single scene of sexual exploration with two secondary characters. This event occurs before the main couple enters a relationship; there is no sharing or non-exclusivity once the couple is established.
