When a rebellious rancher meets the pastor’s daughter, it’s a match made in...Copper Ridge! From New York Times bestselling author Maisey Yates!
Sheltered from her own desires for so long, Hayley Thompson wants to experience life. A new job at Gray Bear Construction is a start. The work she can handle. It’s her boss—reclusive, sexy Jonathan Bear—who’s scrambling her mind and her hormones...
No matter how successful he becomes, Jonathan’s reputation will always precede him. And his type of woman is usually nothing like prim, innocent Hayley. Yet he can’t resist unleashing the fire beneath her pent-up facade—even if seduction means losing his heart...
“You can’t play these kinds of games. You don’t know the rules.”
“I don’t know what your problem is. You don’t want me, so what do you care if they do?”
“Hayley, honey, I don’t want to want you, but that is not the same thing as not wanting you. It is not even close. What I want is something you can’t handle.”

She bared her teeth. “I was trying! You just scared them off.”
“You’re not having experiences with those clowns. They wouldn’t know how to handle a woman if she came with an instruction manual. And let me tell you, women do not come with an instruction manual. You just have to know what to do.”
“And you know what to do?”
“Damn straight,” he returned.
“So,” she said, tilting her chin up, looking stubborn. “Show me.”

Hayley Thompson was a good girl. In all the ways that phrase applied. The kind of girl every mother wished her son would bring home for Sunday dinner.
Of course, the mothers of Copper Ridge were much more enthusiastic about Hayley than their sons were, but that had never been a problem. She had never really tried dating, anyway. Dates were the least of her problems.
She was more worried about the constant feeling that she
