Runaway for the Grumpy Daddy

144 pages

My rule is simple. No big men. Never again.

So why does this huge man with a voice like thunder make my legs shake?
I run two hundred miles from a man I hate.
Then I bury my truck to the axles on my first day at Carrow Creek, and the biggest man in Montana climbs out of a pickup.
They say Boone Calloway broke a man’s jaw behind the Rusty Spur and never told a soul why. The whole county calls him a grump and crosses the street.
So why is he the only man alive who’s never made me flinch?
He splits my firewood small enough for one hand. Leaves the porch light on before I get home. Tells me to eat, to sleep, to say when a thing’s too heavy — and when he calls me little, he doesn’t mean the way I’ve spent my whole life hiding.
He means kept.
Then he stands at the bottom of my steps with his hat in his hands and puts the word Daddy in the cold night air between us, and every rule I own goes down like a fence in a flood.
I should have known better than to be happy.
Because my ex is a patient man, and he’s already in Silver Bend. Shaking hands. Buying coffee. Telling this whole valley, in that warm and reasonable voice, that the new girl at the Calloway place is unwell.
A town that’s believed one lie for five years will swallow a second one whole.
And Boone would let them call him a monster till the day he died before he’d spend the truth to save himself.
So somebody’s going to have to do it for him.

Runaway for the Grumpy Daddy is a full-length, high-heat cowboy romance between consenting adults — a mountain of a man with the gentlest hands in Montana, a runaway learning that small can mean safe, and a blizzard neither of them will survive alone. Guaranteed HEA. Each Calloway Brothers book stands alone, but the series is best read in order.
