She needs to protect her ranch. His only hope is to take it. But love just might conquer all. Sam Wolf is a local hero. As coach of the high school football team, he’s riding high on two winning seasons in a row. But when he’s told he’ll be teaching art classes during the coming school year, he immediately thinks of the beautiful woman who taught those very classes until the school did away with them. Lauralie Kimball isn’t sure how to feel about Coach Wolf taking over art classes. When he asks for her help, though, she finds herself jumping right in. It has nothing to do with his dreamy good looks and winning personality. That’s what she tells herself, anyway. As Lauralie works hard to help the new art teacher, a connection starts to develop. Soon, they can’t wait to see each other again. But opening up to Lauralie means risking someone seeing beneath the façade he’s carefully crafted. He might not mind her seeing the real him, after all. The Misty Mountain Matchmakers series is a sweet, clean contemporary romance series filled with swoon-worthy heroes in a small-town setting.
