Protect Me, Daddy

He came back for his land. He’s staying for her.

Cord Harlow lost his family’s ranch to his brother’s mistakes. For months he’s been fixing fence posts and sleeping alone, telling himself he’s only passing through. Until Cami Turner shows up hiding in his father’s cabin—barefoot, terrified, and running from a man who thinks patience is the same as love.

Cord knows three things:
She’s scared.
She’s lying.
And she’s his.

When Marcus Hale buys the Harlow Ranch to get close to the woman who escaped him, Cord has thirty days to fight for land that’s already his in every way that matters. But Marcus doesn’t fight fair. He has money, lawyers, and a cruel patience that knows exactly how to break a woman who once belonged to him.

Cami has eleven photographs that could destroy Marcus forever.
Cord has a brother he hasn’t spoken to in fourteen months.
And neither of them is running anymore.

He’ll burn the world down before he lets anyone take what’s his—the ranch, the fight, or the woman who’s finally learning she doesn’t have to carry it alone.

A protective daddy cowboy romance with high heat, a possessive hero who means every word, and a guaranteed HEA. Explicit content. CW: psychological manipulation, financial fraud (off-page), past controlling relationship.
