From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author, Kelly Elliott, comes a new series that takes us back to her roots.

Ladd

As the son of a third-generation cattle rancher, it’s expected that I would follow in the footsteps of my father, grandfather, and great-grandfather and work the family ranch just as they did.

However, that wasn’t my dream, and thankfully, my parents stood behind me when I told them I wanted to open a sporting goods store in our hometown of River Falls, Colorado. That’s my plan. My endgame, and nothing is going to distract me from that goal.

Then, I met Vivianne Pennington. It soon becomes clear to me that Vivianne is now a part of my dreams, and when I bring her home for Christmas, my entire family and the town of River Falls fall head over heels in love with her.

Vivianne

I’ve gone and found myself in love with a cowboy from a small town in Colorado. When Ladd’s mother and father insist that I come and spend Christmas with them on the family’s cattle ranch, I’m both excited and nervous.

It becomes clear to me that Ladd’s family has deep roots in the community and a family bond I’ve never experienced before. Estranged from my own parents, I long to be a part of the Wilde family and start to see myself living on the ranch and being a part of the community.

But I’m keeping a secret from my past. A secret that I’m terrified will destroy the future I envision, and I’m scared to lose the wild cowboy who has stolen my heart.

Wilde Cowboy is a prequel in the Love is a Cowboy series. It is my hope that by reading Ladd and Vivianne’s story first, you will have a beautifully painted picture of River Falls Cattle Ranch and the Wilde Family.

Ensley

Ten years ago, my world shattered when I lost not only my best friend, but the man I loved. Colt’s brother was my best friend, and his death took two people from my life in a single moment. One I lost to tragedy, and one I lost to grief.

I waited for Colt to come home and grieve with the rest of us after his brother’s death, but after the first year passed, it became painfully clear he wasn’t coming back to River Falls.

I did what I had to do to keep moving forward. I pushed every thought of Colt out of my mind. If only my heart had known how to loosen its grip on him. Instead, I poured myself into building a career as a farrier, supported my family’s ranch, and watched one sibling after another find their happily ever after while I stood still, holding on to someone who wasn’t there.

Eventually, I realized that if I was ever going to find my own happiness, I had to stop waiting for it. I had to take control of my future.

And just when I finally believed I had everything figured out, Colt returned to River Falls, and my carefully built life fell apart all over again.

Colt

After ten years away, I’m back in River Falls, not entirely sure where I fit anymore.

I left after my brother took his own life, drowning in guilt and convinced I was responsible. I couldn’t face my family. I couldn’t face Ensley. So, I ran and stayed gone far longer than I ever intended.

I told myself time would make it easier. It didn’t.

The moment I see Ensley Wilde sitting in a chair beside my father’s hospital bed, everything I buried comes rushing back. Including the guilt I’ve never managed to outrun.

For years, we’ve all carried our own version of what happened to Grady, and the guilt that came with each version. But when the truth finally comes to light, will it be enough to heal what’s broken between us, or will it destroy what’s left entirely?

Can I earn my parents’ trust again?

And more importantly… is there still a chance to win back Ensley Wilde’s heart, and the life I left behind? Can I finally give her the future she’s always dreamed of?

As the last of the Wilde siblings still unattached, I’ve become pretty good at lying to myself.
