Owned By The Sheriff

A Mountain Man Romance

By: Maya McKenna

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Autumn Bailey blows back into Pine Ridge, she’s nothing like the polished beauty queen Sheriff Wade Murphy remembers from high school. She’s tear-streaked, wrinkled-dressed, and speeding down the mountain like she’s running from more than a traffic ticket.

Wade’s spent years keeping order in their small Colorado town, but seeing his first love broken and lost lights up every protective instinct he has. Offering her a spare room at his cabin should be temporary—a safe place to catch her breath while she fixes up her late grandmother’s crumbling Victorian. But the more mornings they share over coffee, the harder it is to imagine letting her go.

Autumn didn’t plan to stay. She definitely didn’t plan to fall for the quiet boy-turned-steadfast sheriff who remembers exactly how she takes her coffee and makes her feel safe for the first time in years. But her past isn’t finished with her—and when it shows up in Pine Ridge wearing an expensive suit and a cruel smile, Wade will have to decide how far he’s willing to go to keep her.

A steamy, small-town romance featuring a fiercely protective sheriff, a heroine rediscovering her worth, second-chance sparks, and the kind of love that feels exactly like coming home. HEA guaranteed, no cliffhangers.
