She’s a professional cook desperately in need of a refuge. He’s a dragon-riding cowboy with a revoltingly messy kitchen. Cassia has spent a lifetime fending for herself. After a run-in with outlaws leaves her penniless and wounded, she’s reluctant to impose further on the gruff rancher who rescued her and paid her medical bills. She knows his generosity won’t last, but with nowhere else to go, her only option is to move into his house. Aevrin and his family aren’t strangers to tragedy. He learned long ago when something good comes into your life, you jump feet-first before it’s gone. But wanting Cassia isn’t simple. She’s running from someone dangerous… and if Aevrin pursues her, he could chase her right back into the fire. The more time they spend together, getting caught in the rain, sharing each other’s chores, and wagering over kisses, the harder he finds it to keep his hands off the delicious chef who tumbled into his lap. The Dragon Ranch of Dawn Ridge is a cozy, spicy (dragon-riding) cowboy roman(tasy), perfect for readers who long for both a simpler life… and a pet dragon.
