Grumpy Hearted Cowboy (Not Looking For Love #2)
Julia Stone
A brooding cowboy, an innocent heart, and heat that builds fast and fierce.
Cyrus:
I agreed to let her stay for the summer, offering a spare room for a few weeks, helping around the ranch while she figures out her future.
What I didn’t agree to was Millie walking back into my life as a grown woman—soft smiles, curious eyes, and a body I have no business noticing. She’s my friend’s daughter. She’s younger. She’s here to learn, not to tempt the hell out of me every time she steps into my space.
Living under the same roof makes distance impossible. Every shared meal, every long day working side by side chips away at my self-control. I know better. I should stop this before it starts.
But wanting her feels inevitable—and once I give in, there’s no going back.
Millie:
Spending the summer on Cyrus Kane’s ranch is supposed to be simple.
Hands-on experience. Early mornings. All while learning what kind of veterinarian I want to be.
Instead, I’m sharing a house with a gruff, intimidating cowboy who barely speaks—and somehow says everything with a single look. He’s bigger than life, rough around the edges, and completely different from anyone I’ve ever wanted before. I tell myself to focus, to keep things professional.
But the longer I stay, the harder it is to ignore the tension crackling between us. The way his eyes linger. The way my heart races whenever we’re alone.
We’re crossing lines we shouldn’t. With the promise of leaving in the future, one push may risk everything falling apart.
