New York Times bestselling author Lorelei James returns for another wild ride in Wyoming with a new Blacktop Cowboys® novel. Years in the Army equipped Bailey Masterson for many things: target shooting, rappelling off cliffs, dodging grenades. She’s lived through horrors that still give her nightmares. But nothing in Bailey’s life-or-death training prepared her for caring for the tiny terror that … for the tiny terror that is five-year-old Olivia Hale. Or how to control her raging attraction to Olivia’s father, Streeter, the rugged, green-eyed cattle rancher who undermines her every move even when he stars in her dreams.
Streeter Hale has room for only two things in his life: his daughter and his job. He doesn’t date. He doesn’t get attached. Not anymore. So not only is Streeter stunned by Olivia’s improved behavior after just a few days with Bailey, he’s downright floored by his immediate attraction to the woman. But with secrets in her eyes and a body that doesn’t quit, Streeter begins to worry that Bailey Masterson might just be the one woman to heal his fractured family and broken heart.
One thing’s for sure–these two wrecked souls are spinning out of control as they desperately try not to fall in love…

Lorelei is always amazing in her story telling and I can’t wait to re read this book.
The wait was well worth it. This addition to the Blacktop Cowboys is great. Streeter Hale is the best thing that could happen to Bailey, and vice versa. Olivia is the greatest. I laughed at her through the whole book. Her and the other children were lovable brats that turned into great kids with the help from SGT B. Streeter, Olivia and Bailey all grab your heart with the trials and sadness that they all have endured in their life. Their love story shows that you can be hurt, and still love with all your heart. Another great Lorelei James story.
If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! I tried to read this book about Streeter and Bailey real slowly to savor it but, sadly, I couldn’t. I loved their story, very emotional. Sometimes sad but there was always hope inter dispersed throughout. I couldn’t wait to read it but I’m so sad that I’m done. Ms James still has that magic when writing. It doesn’t matter if it’s about cowboys, athletes, military, she can write them all. Another book that you need to RUN and buy! Oh, and love Olivia. It takes some special people to raise her.
