About the Book

“Saddle up for a match made in Wild West heaven in this hilarious, heartfelt, and steamy romance.”—Simone Soltani, USA Today bestselling author of Cross the Line

Welcome to Bravetown. It’s time to discover if you are brave enough for the biggest adventure of your life—falling in love.

Moving to the Wild West isn’t exactly part of Esra Taner’s life plan . . . But when she drops out of medical school and her brother suggests she join him at Bravetown, the Wild West theme park where he’s working for the summer, she can’t find a good enough reason to say no.

When she arrives, Esra happens to be the perfect fit for the costumes of Bravetown’s resident damsel in distress, which means she’s about to spend the summer being dramatically abducted by Ace Ryder, the park’s lawless cowboy.

Ace is the definitive yes please with an evil smirk to make you lose your morals, but the man behind the costume, Noah Young, is about as exciting as a granola bar.

Noah and Esra have no interest in each other outside of their performances. But when their stunts start to go wrong and their futures at Bravetown are at risk, Esra and Noah put their differences aside and soon realize the attraction between their characters might not all be for show.
