Roads Behind Us

From small-town Western romance author, Greta Rose West, comes a steamy and heartwarming love story, the sixth book in the Wisper Dreams Series, Roads Behind Us. Grab a fan and a hankie, and get ready to fall in love with sexy single dad, Bax Lee, and the grumpy woman who starts his heart again, Sweetie Baker…

Who knew one game of Texas Hold ’Em and a bottle of gin could seal two strangers’ fates?

Bea Baker walked away from a dead-end marriage. She hasn’t had a family to speak of since her dad passed, but whether she knows it or not, a family’s what she’s been searching for. When Brand Lee hired her as his right hand at Lee Construction, she was grateful for his faith in her. To prove it, she takes her job seriously, which earned her the nickname Sweetie, but spoiler alert: she’s a hard ass. Screw her southern upbringing.

Bea says what she means, and none of it’s sweet.

When she finds herself in her boss’s hometown of Wisper, Wyoming, running multiple projects for Lee Construction, Bea’s smacked in the face with all the family she could ever want. And at the head of that family is the same guy she decimated in a game of poker one sultry summer night forever ago.

Baxton Lee has his hands full with a teenage daughter and too many memories of the past and all the things he lost. He used to be a farmer. Now he’s a rancher and a new business owner. He’s also a single dad and a widower who guards his heart like Fort Knox. And when he goes and gets his leg broken by a rowdy bull, he’s stuck in a cast, watching the world pass him by and remembering the life he used to have.

Until his brother’s forewoman shows up to help build the new Lee Valley rental cabins. Bold and unapologetic Sweetie knocks Bax right back down in the dirt, takes his breath away, and offers him hope for the future.

Too bad she’s off limits.

Bax can’t afford to love anyone but his daughter anyway. Why go looking for something that could be ripped away at any moment? But when it lands in his lap, Bax has to figure out whether to continue protecting his heart, or if he should let it grow bigger and give it away.

Join Bax and Bea in the best small town west of the Mississippi, and you might find yourself falling in love too. Roads Behind Us, the sixth book in the Wisper Dreams series, is a tale of two lost souls looking for a place to belong again. Throw in a hopeful, meddling teenager, a menagerie of farm animals, and a big ol’ found family, and you got yourself a hoedown.
