From the New York Times bestselling author of the Marked Men series comes a captivating novella about a rugged rodeo star who will do anything to protect the people he loves.
When rodeo star Crew Lawton loses everything in a bad bet, he has no choice but to take a new job to pay off his debts - even if it means becoming the face of an expensive male skincare line. Crew is used to getting sweaty and rustling in the dirt, not posing for photo shoots. And he's certainly not used to being bossed around by a woman who doesn't even know the difference between bulls and broncs. But Crew owes money to dangerous criminals, and he'll do anything Della says in order to pay them back and keep them far away from his family in Loveless, Texas...
The launch of her new men's line for her family's company means everything to Della Deveaux, and she's not willing to let some rugged, arrogant cowboy ruin her campaign. Crew Lawton is the last man she would have chosen to represent her chic, sophisticated brand. Unfortunately, her father already invested millions in Crew's stupidly handsome face. Yet the more time they spend together, Della and Crew realize that opposites do attract. But when the time comes for Crew to face his past mistakes, will he be able to protect his family...and the woman he's come to love?

I personally have issues with novellas (they always seem too rushed for me), but Jay Crownover was able to pull off to miracles with this one. 1. I read a cowboy book. 2. I enjoyed this novella.
Crew was a guy who had some serious issues, but I liked him because he was willing to own up to his mistakes and do what he needed to in order to fix them…which included grabbing onto a lifeline.
Della had daddy issues and spent the majority of the story proving that to everyone, but she saw something more in Crew than just a sexy cowboy. She saw the broken man underneath all that who needed to be reminded he was lovable….just like her.
I enjoyed the world building with this novella and look forward to seeing what comes next with the Lawton family. They’re a whole pile of messed up and I have a feeling nothing is going to come easy to this crew.
