The wealthiest man in Dead Horse, MT, decides it's time to acquire a wife and gives his eminently efficient personal assistant the task of finding the perfect candidate...
The wealthiest man in Dead Horse, MT, Cash Whitaker, decides it's time to find a wife before he begins his campaign for mayor. He figures having the right wife will increase his likability as a candidate. Becoming the mayor is important because the office will give him the power to protect his town by cleaning out the bounty hunters, who aren't "Dead Horse" and have put his town on the map for all the wrong reasons.
Being a busy man and knowing his particular skill set doesn't lend itself to the task, he decides to give the responsibility of finding a wife to his highly efficient personal assistant. He'll let her put together a list of suitable candidates for him to sort through to find the woman who will help him on the path to his ultimate goal of becoming the governor of Montana.
Lila Hanson is spitting mad that her boss wants her to find him a wife. The single mom has spent two years becoming his ultimate asset, only to have him completely overlook her as the perfect candidate. When she turns to her girl squad to vent, they suggest a plan to open the clueless man's eyes to what's right in front of him.
However, a tragic incident throws both their plans into chaos and brings a new intimacy neither can ignore. Now, they have to work together to save an orphaned child.
Until recently, award-winning romance author Delilah Devlin lived in South Texas at the intersection of two dry creeks, surrounded by sexy cowboys in Wranglers. These days, she's missing the wide-open skies and starry nights but loving her dark forest in Central Arkansas, with its eccentric characters and isolation---the better to feed her hungry muse! For Delilah, the greatest sin is driving between the lines, because it's comfortable and safe. Her personal journey has taken her through one war and many countries, cultures, jobs, and relationships to bring her to the place where she is now---writing sexy adventures that hold more than a kernel of autobiography and often share a common thread of self-discovery and transformation.
