Confessions

Brooke Daniels has spent her entire life searching for one thing: the mother who gave her away.

Orphaned young and raised in foster care, Brooke has always longed for the kind of love and family other people seem to take for granted. After years of searching, she finally uncovers a lead that brings her to Ryder Ranch in Wild Rose, Iowa… and face-to-face with the woman she believes is her birth mother.

But before Brooke can reveal the truth, she's mistaken for the ranch's new cook.

And instead of correcting the misunderstanding, she takes the job.

Just for a little while.

Then she meets ranch owner Dylan Ryder and quickly discovers he's sexy, brooding, and impossible to ignore.

After a painful betrayal shattered his dreams of love and family, Dylan keeps his distance emotionally. But with the ranch short on help, he's more than willing to let Brooke stay—and far less prepared for the attraction building between them.

Brooke reminds herself she came to Ryder Ranch searching for answers, not for late nights tangled in Dylan's arms or the kind of passion that makes her forget every reason she should keep her distance.

But secrets have a way of unraveling.

And as Brooke finally begins to experience the love and belonging she's always wanted, she realizes the truth could destroy everything—including the man who's slowly claiming her heart.

Because everyone at Ryder Ranch is hiding something… and some confessions change everything.
