Bourbon Sunset

Teller Bailey is the last single son in a Montana bourbon empire. He's also arrogant, infuriating, and unfairly handsome with his beard and flannel.

Everyone in town loves him. Everyone in town detests me.

I'm "Mad Maddy" Townsend, the only surviving daughter of Bourbon Canyon's most reviled family. I'm also mouthy, broke, and spectacularly alone.

I've wanted nothing more than to get away from this small town and their opinions of me since birth, yet I'm stuck here with nothing but a trashed dive bar and a shoestring budget to get it back in business-or my mom will be evicted from her nursing home.

But there isn't a contractor in the county who'll return my calls, at least without including a few four-letter words in their messages. My only hope for competent help is the annual bachelor auction featuring the town's most eligible Bailey. The prize? One project completed for the highest bidder.

I must be every bit as crazy as this town thinks to bid on Teller. The man I can't stand will be mine until I'm ready to serve my first drink. All I have to do is not fall for his charming smile, his unyielding support, or the way his name opens all the doors slammed in my face.

I've never been treated so well, but I know how this goes. When this job is finished, he'll ride off into the bourbon sunset-without me, just like everyone else in my life.
