Captivated by Steph

Dating again is not part of my plan. Romance with my late husband's best friend is definitely off limits.

Blake shows up after five years to build my brother's restaurant, and I remember how much fun he was to have around. His own brand of humor keeps everyone laughing. Especially me.

He's fun. Comfortable. Safe. Until he agrees to help with a winery photo shoot and the photographer asks us to kiss. Blake doesn't hold back. Neither, apparently, does my heart.

There are so many reasons this can't happen. The friend thing. The fact that he hates wine and I own a winery. The fact that he rides the rodeo circuit and I stay as far from rodeos as humanly possible since the accident.

Two mismatched socks. That's all we are.

Then I find Liam's lucky coin on Blake's nightstand while he's away at a rodeo. And everything I've been pretending not to feel becomes impossible to ignore.

Saying goodbye to Blake means saying goodbye to laughter. But can two odd socks really make a pair?

Captivated by Steph is a sweet, closed-door romantic comedy about a widow who wasn't looking, a cowboy who never stopped waiting, and a lucky coin that changed everything. Book five in the Stargazer Springs Ranch series.
