Then Stone moves into the other side of the bunkhouse, where she and her daughter are living. Turns out Elena’s summer job of helping Pop Abbott start a farm-stay program will require coordinating with Stone, who’s slated to run the organic farm.

Unfortunately, it also requires working with the wealthy entrepreneur she dated back when he was a golf caddy at her family’s country club. The spark is still there. But David, a cancer survivor, harbors secrets that pull him away from the woman he still adores.

Will their reversal of fortune bring them together or tear them apart?

Ranch Enemies by Olivia Kay

Posted August 21, 2025 by Marsha in Booksprout ARC, Contemporary Romance, Kindle Unlimited, Modern Western Romance, Sexual Content, Standalone / 0 Comments

He’s the grumpy cowboy foreman.  I’m the city girl who inherited this ranch from my father.

How the hell did we end up almost kissing in the barn?

I didn’t come back to Painted Sky Ranch to fall for the Casanova cowboy who’s been glaring at me since I rolled up in my SUV.

Cash Bennett is all growl, grit, and maddening control.  The same boy who made my life hell in school is now a broad-shouldered man, very good with a rope—and very bad at keeping his hands to himself.

I have one year to stay here or lose my father’s inheritance.  Which means working side-by-side with the one man who doesn’t want me here.

I have to decide between this steaming hot cowboy or going back to the big city.

We fight. We ride. We kiss.

And somewhere between teaching my daughter to ride and defending me at a rodeo, he goes from impossible to irresistible.

Then I uncover the truth about who he really is—and what he’s been hiding from me all along.

Turns out, I inherited more than a ranch.  I inherited the one man with an attitude…. who could take it all… or wreck me for every man after him.
